SELENA

"Where the heck is he? If he knows that he doesn't want to work with us, then he should say it. I am willing to break the contract. He should not be wasting our time like this!" Adam complained.

A few days had passed since we signed the contract and we were here to talk about it with Philp.

However, he had kept us waiting for over an hour. I was starting to get frustrated and Adam had since lost his temper.

"Please calm down Adam. You know that your father is a very busy man. I am sure that he is just running late," Lucian did his best to calm Adam.

Adam shook his head.

"No, I know my father. I know that he's not busy with anything. He is just doing this because he wants to mess with me. That's the kind of person he is!" Adam said.

"I...." I was about to say singing when the door was pushed open and Philp finally walked in.

He was not alone, though. The woman who was at the house a few days ago...the one Adam was supposed to get married to, was with him.

She had a confi

    SELENA "It's fine if you don't want to work with me Adam. I am not going to force you. I really don't want to have to put up with your righteous attitude anyway. But know that if you walk out of this place right now you are going to have to pay me for breaching the contract that we signed. I am sure that you have a billion dollars to give to me for breaking the contract it is not a big deal for you after all" Philip was very proud when he said this. It was as if he had been waiting for this Adam turned to Lucian,"what is the meaning of this?" He asked Lucian coldly. Lucian looked ashamed. "I am sorry Adam but it is in the contract that you signed. This is a very big project and we are all going to get a few billions in profits if things work out as planned. Having a billion dollar as a penalty for breaking the contract is just to protect the interests of everyone else involved. It's also the same for your father. If he wishes to break the contract for whatever reason, then he wou

    ADAMI glared at my father. "How could you even think about demolishing that place? Have you forgotten that is the place mom grew up in? It's her home...and home and you know how much it means to her. She's always going back to that place. How could you be so cruel to a woman who's given her life for you?" I already knew before this that my father was a terrible man. I thought that there was no way he could get even worse but he always shocked me. The fact that he did not think that there was anything wrong with what he was doing blew my mind. "Your mother will understand that this is for business. Besides, it's not as if she has a choice here. It's my money and I can choose to invest in whatever way I want! Stop acting like you're a saint, Adam. You're a businessman. Did you really make so much money righteously? Don't tell me that you didn't have to step on a few toes to get to where you are today!" My father accused me. I smiled sarcastically and nodded my head. "Yes, I'm not

    SELENA"It seems you've forgotten what I told you, Lily. If you're so bored and if you dare think about bothering Selena again, then I will make sure that you and your parents are never busy. You are only here because your father owns some company if that company goes bankrupt, do you think my father will still pay attention to you? He won't, so don't be an idiot!" Adam yelled at Lily. I was shocked to see him scolding Lily on my behalf. I thought he was going to ask what happened and that he would be mad at me when he found out the truth. That was not the case though, as Adam truly did not care for Lily. He was focused on me and me alone. I knew then that even if I was the one in the wrong, he would still have my back. There was no sweeter feeling than this. "You won't dare to do that, Adam!" Philp roared. "You can go ahead and try me, see if I dare to do it or not!" Adam said. He grabbed my hand and started to pull me away with him. He didn't stop until we were in the car. "

    ADAM"Listen to me Adam we can't just break up the contract just because you are not happy with your father. What he is doing might not be morally right but it is the right decision for a businessman. And your father is a complete businessman. He does not mix business with pleasure at all. I am sure that the people who live in that place are going to get some kind of compensation. It is not a big deal and it is not worth you ending the contract and losing billions over" Lucian had come to my office, and he was doing his best to convince me not to back out of the contract. "Do you really think that my father is going to compensate all of those people well? He is probably going to give them a check for a few thousand dollars and then you will leave them to fend for themselves. My father is a really cold man who cares about no one else but himself. He won't do anything to help out people who are suffering. And besides that, that place is where my mother grew up. It means a lot to her. H

    SELENAI sat by the side as I watched Ariel play with Peter. Both of them seemed very happy and it warned my heart. Since I promised Peter that I would bring Ariel to come see him during the weekend I made good on that promise. Besides he called me everyday to make sure that I did not forget about my promise. I could not escape it even if I wanted to. "They look so happy playing together. Why didn't my grandfather tell me that he knew about Ariel all this time? He already built a relationship with her and I am still getting to know my daughter. It seems so unfair to me"I turned to look at Adam when he said this. I could not understand why he was here. The Adam that I knew was always busy at work. Even on a Saturday like this, he would not be at home because he would have to work. That was why I agreed to come here immediately. Because I believed Adam was not going to be at home."What are you doing here anyway Adam?" I asked him. He flashed me a smile. "What do you mean by that?

    SELENA"You can go entertain your guests in your own house. No one cares about it. But what is she doing here? None of you are welcome in my home. Please just leave already ," Adam said coldly. "Adam, watch the way you speak to us. We are your parents. Do you think that you've grown so big that we can't tell you what to do?! There are so many ways for me to ruin you, Adam. Don't push me!"I was shocked to hear a father threaten his son like this. With a father like Philp, no one would be able to tolerate it! Adam sneered at him, and he took a few steps towards Philp. He was standing right in front of Philip and it seemed like he would lash out and hit him at any second. My heart beat fast against my chest as I watched this exchange. I didn't want Adam to lose his mind because of his father. It wasn't worth it. "Really? I'd like to see what it is that you can do to me!" Adam said. "Adam!" I called out to him. Adam turned to look at me, and at Ariel who was trembling in my arms.

    SELENA"I just want to know where you get all of your confidence from. Why do you think you can say all of these things to me?" I asked Lily. I wasn't really bothered by her. At most, I saw her as a woman who did not know what she was doing. She was just delusional. Lily raised her chin at me, probably trying to intimidate me, but it just made me want to laugh. "Adam's father is on my side. They may be fighting right now but he is going to have to listen to his father at the end of the day. And then Adam is going to get married to me. It's fine if you don't want to give your daughter to me. I can always give Adam more children. I don't even want to raise your brat anyway" Lily told me. I was so angry that I just laughed. What could I say to someone who had so much blind confidence? It was so obvious that she would not stop until she hit a wall. "Is that something that the daughter of a prestigious family should be saying to another woman?"We both turned to see Janet staring at L

    ADAM"What do you want?" I asked my father coldly. Everyone else had left and he and I were the only ones in the living room. "Adam, what do you really want from me? You are angry at me, I get it. But it's been almost ten years. Are you going to continue acting like this? You need to stop throwing a tantrum and come home. If you're acting like this, who is going to inherit my company? I need you back!" My father said I sneered when I heard this. I could tell he was getting desperate now. My father talking like this was his equivalent of begging. "And why do you think I care about that? I don't care about your company. You can go feed it to the dogs for all I care. When I walked away from your house ten years ago, I told you I would never be coming back. I didn't take a single cent from you. Did you think I was just joking?" I asked my father coldly. I would never forget what he did to me on the day I turned eighteen just because I tried to stand up for my mother. He was hitting

    LILYI shuddered when Ryan's eyes landed on me. I felt as if he could see through me and like there was nothing I could say that could possibly be hidden from him. "I....well....I...""I know the kind of person you and your mother are. And I know you definitely won't be here if you didn't want something from me. I don't have the time to beat around the bush with you. Tell me what it is that you want so I can get on my way," he said coldly. "Ryan, how can you say that? It's fine if you don't like me but my mother is your aunt. Your elder. You have to give her a bit of respect, don't you think? She was worried when...." I was trying to feign anger, but then Ryan's cold eyes fell on me again and all of the words died in my throat.This man was really scary. He was just as scary as Adam. "Are you going to state what you're here for? Or do you want me to throw you out?"I sighed, realising that none of my tricks would work with Ryan. The only thing I could do now was come clean with t

    LILY I frowned when I saw the house that my cousin was living in. It was a large villa, and it was located in the most expensive part of the city.I knew my uncle's family had a lot of money, but if they were willing to throw this much away in a house when they wouldn't even be staying here for long......just how rich were these people?!I thought of my so called cousin that I would need to suck up to for now. If my life had gone as planned, if Adam really treated me as his wife then she would be the one who needed to suck up to me. Life just wasn't fair! I walked over to the and knocked a few times, an older woman whom I assumed was the nanny opened the door. "Where is Ryan? Tell him that Lily is here to see him," I demanded. The nanny looked at me like I was crazy and I almost lashed out at her. Who did she think she was to look at me like that? However, since I wanted to leave a good impression on my cousin, I held myself back. I told myself I would get back at her for da

    LILYMy mother handed Daniel to the nanny who had rushed downstairs with her. The nanny carried a crying Daniel away without saying snuggling. She had been working for us for a few years now and she knew she was not supposed to talk about anything that she was here. My mother slapped my back and I glared at her. "What are you hitting me for?!" I yelled. I was already pissed off enough as it was , I didn't want to be antagonized by my family as soon as I got back. "I should hit you some more! How could you treat Daniel like that?! He's your son! Do you think you would have been able to stay married to Adam for so long if it wasn't for him?" My mother asked me. I rolled my eyes, "oh please. Adam doesn't even want to acknowledge Daniel as his son. If I had known that things were going to turn out like this, then I would never have given birth to him in the first place!" I yelled. I carried the pregnancy for nine months and had the baby because I thought Adam's heart would soften.

    ADAM"How could you do this?! I am your wife and the mother of your son for crying out loud! How can you give a company worth billions to your daughter while you've given your son nothing his whole life?! Don't you know that Daniel is the one who will inherit everything that you have?" Lily yelled at me. I eyed her coldly, "I don't know what my father told you, but you and your son are not going to get anything from me. Maybe he can give him the assets in his hand! But he's not getting anything from me!"I did not consider that kid my son, I had only seen him a few times, after all. Lily had taken advantage of me when I was drunk. She was crazy if she thought I would take responsibility for the child she had by force.Lily looked like she was about to cry when I was done, but I did not care. She had it all coming. She was delusional if she thought that she could rope me into a marriage so easily. "Daniel is your son! Why do you act as if I am the one who got myself pregnant?""I t

    ADAM"Jolie doesn't mind because she's a nice woman but that doesn't mean that I don't mind. I need you to get your wife to apologize to my wife and then we can talk about working together!" Hours after Jenson left my office, I was still in a horrible mood, thinking of how I was going to solve the problem that so-called wife of mine had caused me. I was so angry. And knowing Lily, I knew it would be difficult to get her to apologize to anyone. Especially Jolie. Speaking of the devil, my office door was pushed open and Lily marched in. She didn't even bother to knock. I looked at her coldly, but I didn't bother to argue with her about this because I knew that she was not going to listen. I had told her many times to knock before entering my office but she always refuses to listen to me. She would not start listening now. "What are you doing here?" I asked, eyeing her coldly. Lily had a cold look on her face as she dropped her bag on my desk angrily. It didn't seem like she was

    SELENA A driver was waiting to pick Liam, Ryan and I from the airport when we arrived. We got into the car together and the driver drove us to a large villa. I turned to look at Ryan, shock on my face. I wanted to know how he managed to get us this place in just a few days. It was extremely beautiful and it was well protected. The villa was in a neighbourhood that no one else besides the people who lived in it would be able to enter. "Ryan....how were you able to arrange this in just a few days?" I asked Ryan. He smiled at me, "Didn't mom tell you before this? We used to live in this city. But when you went missing,mom could not bear the memories of you that were here and we had to move away. Anyway, we still have some connections in this place and it's not hard to find a house" Ryan explained to me.I nodded my head in understanding, "Oh, I see. I thought that you might have asked for help from Lily. She's still our cousin isn't she?" I said bitterly. Finding out that the woma

    ADAM"Daddy? Are you there?" I was still on the phone when I heard Ariel's voice. I sighed and lowered my voice before I spoke again. "Do everything that you can to find Selena. I don't believe that she's dead. If a bitch like Jolie can survive then I am sure that Selena can survive. Do all that you can to bring her back!" I said before I ended the call. By the time I rearranged my emotions, Ariel had already walked in. Ariel looked at me wearily. She was 12 now, but my little girl was wise beyond her years. She was no longer that little girl that always ran after her mommy....she was growing into a beautiful and confident teenager. Many times, I caught myself thinking of how Selena would feel when she found out that her daughter had grown so much. If it wasn't for Ariel, I didn't think I would have been able to survive for so long. "Dad, what are you doing here? It's so late and you are still working. Didn't you promise me? You said that you are going to rest earlier. It's no

    Just who is this woman and what does she have to do with you anyway?" My mother asked me. "I said she's Adam's ex wife....she is doing all of this because she wants Adam back. She made me make a fool of myself today and Adam is mad at me because of her. She has an old husband and now she thinks she can do whatever she wants. Hmph! I am going to show her she's not a match for me!" I swore. My mother rolled her eyes, "you can do whatever you want, just leave me out of it. I am sick and tired of your shenanigans!" My mother said. "Mom! Are you really not going to help me out?""Lily, I just told you that your father is having issues with his company. You refuse to divorce Adam and even though you're his wife, you can't even convince him to invest in your father's company. I am going to call my brother and ask him for help. No matter what, Frank is still my brother!" My mother said painfully .I rolled my eyes when she said this. "Oh please, mom. Five years ago when you called him and

    LILY"Lily, what's with the look on your face? I thought you said that you would attend an event as Adam's wife? I really don't know why it is so difficult for you to win the heart of a man. Already arranged everything for you 5 years ago. You even have a son that she can use to hold on to Adam and yet you are still not able to do anything. You are still just his wife in name. How long are you going to continue living like this?"My mother did not hold back when she scolded me. Over the years she has helped me a lot and created a lot of opportunities for me to get closer to Adam. However no matter what we did he was just unwilling to look at me. I was a terrible person to him. "Mom do you think that I am not trying? I have done all that I can. I even have a son for him and Philp has accepted my son as the future heir but you know that all of that doesn't mean anything. Adam is the one who is in charge now and if it doesn't accept my son there is nothing else that we can do" I said.
