ADAM

I was shocked when I heard Ariel say this. I had no idea how I was supposed to answer her question.

"Who....who told you this?" I asked her. My heart was beating fast against my chest. I did not want to tell Ariel the truth yet because her mother was not here.

It was up to Selena how and when we were going to tell Ariel that I was her father. But, I also didn't want to lie to hurt her. I was really excited.

Ariel smiled at me. It was the most beautiful I had ever seen in my life. She was just as beautiful as her mother.

"Well, I overheard my mother talking with her friend since. She said that my daddy is in this city. She also said that my daddy is very handsome. You are the only man who has come to see me ever since we got here. So I think that you're my daddy," Ariel said to me.

I had no idea what I was supposed to say. Ariel was very smart. I was proud that I had such a smart girl as my daughter. I was not by her side when she was born, but she was still very smart.

    I rolled my eyes, highly irritated. I was tired and I was definitely not in the mood to argue with this man. "I know I have been divorced two times. You don't need to remind me about it!" I snapped at my father. I walked over to my grandfather and took his arm. I helped him sit down on the couch,while I completely ignored my father. I knew that my father was angry, but I did not care. He brought this on himself. My grandfather was the one who raised me while my father was busy doing whatever. I was not going to show respect to a man who had never cared about me before. "Do you think that this is a joke, Adam?! Do you know that you're a laughing stock back at home?! Everyone knows that you've been married and divorced many times! No matter how rich you are or how great your company is, they will still see you as someone who can't keep a marriage! Do you know how that affects your mother and I?!" My father yelled at me. "I don't know why this would affect you, Philp. You already to

    ADAM"You...this is not over yet! You have a responsibility to fulfil as my son! I let you do whatever you want all these years, I am not going to let you do as you want anymore. You've already proven that you can't take care of your affairs on your own!" My father said. He walked out of my house angrily. I knew glk that this was not the end. I was going to hear from my father again. He was someone who would go extra miles just to get his own way. Anyway, I was going to be prepared when he came back. There was no way I would let him push me around . "Do you really have to be so cold to your father?" My grandfather finally spoke up. I sneered at him. "I thought that you were not going to say anything," I said. "Well, from the look of things, you were able to handle it. No matter what, that man is your father. You don't have to be so cold to him!" My grandfather said. "Well, he has never been a father. He can't just come demanding that I help him when he has always treated me ba

    ADAMMy grandfather looked away guiltily when I asked him this. But I was not going to drop the topic. If he knew that Selena was pregnant, then he should have told me about it! Why did he keep it away from me?!"Grandfather What were you thinking? Do you know how much time in her life I have missed thanks to you?! You could have just told me! If I had known that Selena was pregnant with my child back then I...." My grandfather did not let me finish what I was saying. "And what would you have done if you had known that she was pregnant with your child? Would you not have kicked her away coldly?! You were convinced that she cheated on you back then and nothing anyone said was able to change your mind. You should have thought about this before you made a foolish decision back then. Selena was hurt by your actions and if she didn't want to tell you about her baby, then she has every right to keep it away from you!" My grandfather told me. I really hated the fact that he kept reminding

    "Ariel how about we..." I was about to say something to my daughter when I heard someone call out my name. "Selena!" I turned to see the person who called me once. I frowned when I saw his face. It was Adam's father. Philip. What was this man doing here?!He had always hated me. He hated the fact that I was married to his son and he made sure to make my life hell in the years I was married to Adam. He and his wife did not even bother to come to the wedding. What was he doing here?I knew that the man hated me, and I felt the same way towards him. I did not think that a person like him was fit to be a father at all. I didn't see him after the divorce, who knew I was going to run into him here? He did not even live in this city, so what was he doing here?!"I see you are back. You are such a cunning woman. Since my son already divorced you, then you should leave him alone. Why the hell are you still showing up around him? Do you think that you still have a chance to be with him?! As

    SELENA"You....do you really think that you're doing yourself a favour by acting like this?" He asked me angrily. I didn't want to hear anything else that Philp had to say. I was about to leave with Ariel when I saw Lucian approaching us. I frowned when I saw him. Why was he always everywhere I was? It was starting to get a bit suspicious. What was he even doing here, anyway? Lucian had a big smile as he walked over to us. Ariel was the first person that he acknowledged. "Ariel...how have you been?" Lucian asked her. Lucian had visited her a lot when she was in the hospital and they had both become good friends. Ariel seemed really happy to see him. "I am fine! How are you doing, Lucian?! You said you would come to see me after I left the hospital, but I didn't see you. You don't want to see me again?" Ariel asked as she pouted. Lucian laughed and shook his head, "no. Of course not. It's just that I have been busy. But I'll definitely come to see you from now on. You don't hav

    ADAM"This is the grand business plan that you have? You want me to work with my father? What the heck were you even thinking when you came up with this? Why did you even think this is going to work? You know the relationship I have with my father!" I reminded Lucian. I was really upset with him. When he told me that he had a new business plan that ha was working on, I trusted him, because I knew that Lucian would never let me make a bad deal. At least that was what I thought until now. That did not seem to be the case. "Adam, as long as you are willing to put the prejudice you have against your father aside, you'll see that it's not really a bad idea for you to work for him. It's really great and I assure you that you are going to enjoy the benefits!" "Well, I can't put my prejudice aside. You have no idea what he has done to me. I don't want to ever have anything to do with that man in my life!" I said firmly. "Well, even if you don't want to, you should think about Selena. She

    ADAM"Can you please not say that? No matter what, Ariel is my daughter and I don't want anything to happen to you. I know that you care about her. But I also care about her," I tried my best to convince Selena. I knew she was still guarded against me but we were not going to get anywhere if she wanted to continue pushing me away like this. Selena took a deep breath. "Fine. If you want to protect Ariel, I want you to make sure that your father doesn't ever come close to her. I know that he hasn't never liked me, and I really don't care. I just want you to keep my child away from me!" Selena told me. I nodded my head. "Of course, I am going to make sure of that. Even if you didn't mention it, that man will never come close to our daughter!" I said. I would never endanger Ariel's life by letting my parents have access to her. After all the things they put me through when I was growing up, I did not think they were fit to be grandparents. "And also...it doesn't matter if my father

    ADAMI was leaving Selena's company when I ran into Jolie. She was leaving too and we got into the elevator together. I sneered when I saw her, not bothering to hide my disdain for her. Jolie had a smile on her face. She looked a lot more different now. The Jolie I was married to in the past would have started to cause a scene as soon as she saw me. What happened to her? Why did she change so much?!"You aren't even going to acknowledge my presence? I know that you hate me...but I was once your wife," Jolie finally said something. "And if there's a way for me to erase the tears I was married to you, I would gladly do it," I told her. "I really am not here to cause trouble for Selena. I am here because I need a job!" She said to me. "I don't believe you, Jolie. You, getting a job? You are not someone who would get a job out of your own will!" Jolie had always liked to leech off others. That was why she stuck with me so long. I just could not believe that she had a change of heart

    SELENAI got into my car angrily. I was prepared to drive over to the house of Lily's mother and question are about what was going on. How could her daughter have the audacity to pass off someone else's child as Adams child for five years?However just as I was about to start my car I failed a gun pressed to my forehead. I turned slowly, and Lucian was in the car, staring obsessively at me. Adam had told me that Lucian was back and that he was the son of one of his business partners. I knew that I would run into Lucian sooner or later and I was worried about what the meeting was going to be like. But I never in my life thought that he would be in my car with a gun to my head. "Lucian what is the meaning of this? Do you know that this is a crime? How dare you point a gun at my head?" I asked. "Get the heck out of the driver seat. I am sick and tired of doing this with you, Selena. I keep waiting and thinking that you will come back to your senses and you will see that Adam is not

    SELENA"So you are saying that you want to get back together with Adam? Look, I know that you love that man, and I guess I should have known that you were going to go back to him when you insisted on coming here. But are you sure that you can really do it this time? This is the third time that you will be getting back together with Adam. The first two times did not work. Why do you think that it is going to work now?" Ryan had a worried look on his face as he asked me all of these questions. Although my brother sounded a bit harsh I knew that he was just asking me this because he was worried about me. "I have already made up my mind Ryan. I am going to get back together with Adam and I will make sure that our relationship works out this time. We have been through a lot together and we have grown a lot. So we can definitely make it work as long as we put in the effort. We are already together, anyway. And even though you and dad might not like it, we have a right to be happy," I sai

    My heart sank to my chest when I heard the familiar voice of Jenson. I turned back slowly, and I saw the man who was supposed to be dead, sitting on the bed, a cold look on his face. I screamed, and my phone fell from my hand. "You..... aren't you.... aren't you dead?" I asked him. I shook my head, forcing myself to think quickly. He wasn't dead just yet! I couldn't let him realise I was trying to murder him! I threw myself at Jenson and started to cry. "Jenson ...baby ...I am so glad that you are alive. I was so scared ...I was calling the ambulance and Lucian....I really wouldn't have known what to do if you had indeed been dead. Can you please not scare me like that next time? I don't think I'll be able to live on if you die!" I said, crying real tears. I was crying because my plan had failed when I was so close, but he didn't need to know that. Jenson just needed to think that I was crying because he almost died.Jenson pushed me away coldly, a sneer on his face. "Do you

    JOLIEI left Jenson into the house that I had rented out for our vacation. I made sure that it was a place far away from the city so that it wouldn't be easy to trace what would happen back to me. He was already old anyway, and I was sure that his death would be chalked up to a heart attack. Besides, Lucian wouldn't really care to find out what happened to his father, not when he was busy spending his money. The past few days have helped me realize that Lucian was only sticking around for the money that he could get from Jenson. He really didn't care for him as a father, and I thought that Lucian would thank me even if he found out what I did. I got rid of the man standing between his inheritance , he should be thankful to me. "Are you sure that it's a good idea for us to come here, Jolie? There is hardly any network. How am I going to communicate with the people at work?" Jenson asked me as he looked around the house. "Come on Jenson, you said that you only have today to spare

    SELENA I was disgusted when I heard Lily say these things. I always knew that she was not a good woman, but the fact that she could just hand her son away and demand that and didn't want to hear from him ever again...it was really really cold. "Lily, what kind of mother are you? This is your son! Adam wants custody of the kid but that doesn't mean that he wants to take the kid away from you forever! He still wants you to be in his life. Why are you doing this to the kid?" I asked. I looked at Daniel who was clinging on to his father, and I felt my heart breaking for him. He was a kid who clearly needed love, but with a mother like Lily, it was obvious that he never got any of that love. "Oh please, you don't have to pretend like you're such an amazing woman, Selena. Isn't this what you wanted? You have your man back, and you even gained a son in the process. You should be happy since you beat me, why are you acting like you care?" Lily sneered at me. "Some of us have kids that

    ADAM"Philp, I want a divorce. I am sick and tired of this. I can't tell such a crazy lie, and I can't continue to live with you. I want to leave. Please let me go," my mother said.There was complete silence after she said this. I could not believe that my mother had really asked for a divorce. I had tried to get her to feed a divorce from this man several times but she refused to listen to me.She was convinced that he was the love of her life, and there was nothing that could change her mind. "Janet? Are you mad?! I brought you here to fix the issue that you created and you are telling me that you want a divorce? What are you going to do when you get a divorce?! Where do you think you are going to do if you leave me?" My father yelled at her. My mother smiled, and for the first time in my life, I saw her relaxed. It was as if she had let go of all of the burdens she was carrying as soon as she said that she wanted to divorce my father. "I don't know yet, I am going to get a jo

    ADAMMy mother was a sobbing mess and my father had an angry look on his face when I walked into my living room. Selena had been really close to agreeing to being with me again, and so I was dealt mad that these people had come to disturb me at such a time. I was especially angry at my father. I could not bring myself to give him even a single shred of respect, after all of the things that he did to me. "What are you doing here?" I asked coldly, without looking at my father. The tempo of her tears increased but I didn't let it affect me.Although my mother had nothing to do with what happened back then, I could not help but resent her a bit. If she hasn't been "sick" I would never have lost Selena. She was the catalyst for what happened five years ago. "Adam, I don't know what your mother told you yesterday, but she was imagining things. She's old now and she's thinking all kinds of things in her head. You saw her medical records back then, now why on Earth would I fake her hav

    SELENA My head was hurting when I woke up the next morning. It took a few seconds, but I recalled what had happened the previous night. Adam and I slept together once again. My lips twitched, this was not what I wanted. This was not how I thought things were going to go when I decided to come back. But nothing was going my way ever since I came back. I knew that with Adam and I, it was never really simple. I had to think about what I was going to do about our relationship now, especially since we already had two kids together. I could not ignore the elephant in the room. Just then, Adam walked out of the bathroom, wearing his pyjamas, and with his hair still wet. It was obvious that he had just taken a bath. He flashed me a smile that made my heart melt when our eyes met. "Are you awake? Ariel has already been sent to school, if you want breakfast, I can make something for you," he offered. I laughed lightly, "Do you even know how to cook?"The Adam I knew in the past was dis

    SELENA"Can you please stop doing this, Adam? I know that you're angry, but do you think that drinking yourself to a stupor like this is going to solve anything for you?" I asked, feeling really drained. After his mother had left, Adam had come to the bar, claiming that he needed to drink to forget the things that had happened. I could not just leave him to himself, what he found out was pretty damaging, and so I decided to come with Adam to make sure that he didn't hurt himself or someone else. A sad look was on my face as I watched him gulp down all of the beer. At this rate, he was going to be sick. Did Adam think he could get anything out of acting out like this? "You can just leave if you don't want to be here with me, it's not as if I am forcing you anyway," he said coldly. Even though I knew he was drunk and I shouldn't let his words get to me, I could not help but feel a bit hurt. I could not understand why he was acting like this. Did he really need to be such an assho
