LUCIAN

"What do you mean she's not been here all day? She is your CEO for crying out loud. Are you telling me that not a single one of you thought about calling her and finding out where she is?" I yelled at Selena's assistant.

I had come to her office to see her because I wanted to talk to her but I was told that she had not come in to work today, and I was really worried when I heard that. I knew she was a woman who cared about her work a lot. There was no way that she would stay away without a word.

The assistant looked away from me guiltily.

"I.....I called her and she didn't pick up. I assumed that she didn't want to come in today because she's been working really hard...."

"You know that she would never stay away from work on purpose...you...." I wanted to go scolding the assistant, but I stopped myself. It wasn't as if it would help me find Selena.

Finding out where she was and making sure that she was fine was the first thing in my mind.

I brought out my phone and calle

    LUCIAN"Do you really think that Selena would be touched if you do these things for her?" Jolie asked me. I glared at her with a menacing look on my face. "What did you say?" Jolie scoffed and looked at me straight in the eye. "Do you really think that she cares for you? You are doing so many things to break her and Adam up but even if they break up, what are the chances that she will get together with you? Think about this carefully. You are just like me, Lucian. Selena and Adam don't care about both of us. You are just wasting your time with her!" Jolie snapped at her. "Shut up! Shut up right now!" I yelled. What I hated the most was being reminded of the fact that despite being in Selena's life for a long time, she had never really looked at me. She was always running after Adam no matter what he did to her. That really drove me mad. She scoffed when I said this. "Oh please. You know that you're just wasting your time with her and that is why you're mad at me! I am not the

    I had no idea how long I had been awake for. I thought the person who kidnapped me would come see me soon, but I had been waiting for quite some time and yet no one had come into the small room. "Hey, is there anyone out there?! Can you please let me go? I am someone with a lot of money. I can change your life. Please....please just let me go and I will pay you right?" I begged. The door was pushed open and a man walked in angrily. He was wearing a mask and so I could not see what he looked like. "Shut the heck up or else you are going to get it from me. What the heck are you making a mess for?" He yelled at me. Even though I was really scared, I tried my best to act like it was all fine. "Who sent you to me?! You have to let me go now or else you are just going to regret it!"" I yelled. The person walked over to me and he raised his hand at me, as if he was going to hit me. My heart was beating fast against my chest but the slap that I was expecting, did not come. "You had be

    SELENAI was really scared, I had no idea what the man was going to do to me. He was standing outside, and I had thought about escaping, but I knew that I could not get away from him fast enough. I would just be putting myself in more danger if I decided to run away. I just decided to pray that whoever decided to kidnap me was not doing it because he wanted me dead . I just hoped that Adam would realise that I was missing and he would come running to help me. We had argued before I was kidnapped. What if he thought that I was angry and that was why I didn't want to see him?And my daughter, Ariel, I was really worried about her. I wondered what she was doing now and if she was fine. The door was pushed open just and the masked man walked in again. He walked over to me and untied me. Then, he pulled me up and started to drag me away. "Hey, where are you taking me?" I asked him. He scoffed at me. "You don't get to ask me any questions. Just come with me and do as I tell you if y

    SELENAI looked up at Adam, "where is Lucian?" I remembered that he was the one who saved me. Adam patted my hand, "Don't worry about it. He is fine. You just have to make sure that you are fine. That person did not do anything to you right? Did you see his face?"I shook my head at this. I had a feeling that Adam was trying to change the topic. What happened?!"I did not get to see his face. He was wearing a mask and I could not see what he looked like..." I let my voice trail off when I said this. "Don't worry, I am going to find the person who did this to you. Don't you worry," Adam assured me. I nodded my head. "But...I remember that he said something about the person who had asked him to kidnap me. He said that it's not someone that I can afford to provoke. Anyway, I could tell from his tone that it was a man. There aren't a lot of men who hate me" I looked at Adam when I said this. I did not want him to think that I was accusing his father, but there was no other person I c

    PHILIPI picked up a cup and shattered it on the wall. Lily winced when I did this but I did not care about how she felt. We had a really good thing going on here and it was ruined just like that. Who did Selena think she was, anyway?!Why were all of these men running after her? I thought that my son and Lucian were really dumb. They could have all kinds of women that they wanted but they all had to stick with her. "Please calm down, Philip. I know you're angry but we are going to work this out. Don't lose your temper. It's not worth it, " Lily said. I shook my head. "How can you tell me not to lose my temper? Do you even know how annoying all of this is?! We had a good thing going on here....Selena could have been dead by now!" I said angrily. "Well, Lucian saved her so....I think that woman is not an ordinary person. We have to be careful of how we treat her from now on." Lily said. I turned to face Lily. "what do you mean by that. Are you telling me that you're scared and th

    ADAMI sat facing Julia, a cold look on my face. I really didn't want to meet with this woman, but I had no other choice. If I wanted to get to the bottom of this....."What are you doing here, Adam.? I thought you hated me and never wanted to see me again. Why did you ask me to meet with you?" Jolie asked me. She was right....I was the one who asked to meet her in a cafe...and I was already starting to regret it after spending just a few seconds with her. "I have a few questions for you," I said, going straight to the point. "Oh really? Am I going to get paid if I answer your questions?" She asked me, her arms folded across her chest. I rolled my eyes. "Why are you such a greedy woman? Do you not have any shame at all?" I asked. Jolie laughed out loud. "You called me a gold digger for the years I was married to you. I am sure that you already know the kind of person that I am now. There's really no need for us to beat around the bush....if you think about it," she said. I sig

    SELENAI smiled at Lucian who had come to see me in the hospital with flowers. The way he looked at me, as if he was trying to look deep inside my soul, made me uncomfortable. But I did not dare to be rude to him. He saved my life, after all. I did not dare to treat him badly. "You didn't have to come here, you know. I am planning to get disgraced soon. You didn't have to make the trip to the hospital," I said to him. Lucian smiled at me and shook his head. "Don't worry about it, I wanted to be here," he said. "Are you okay though? I understand that what happened to you was really shocking. It's not just about your body ..I think you should see a therapist if you're still scared," Lucian advised me. I shook my head and chuckled lightly. "I am not that weak, Lucian. I am just thankful that I survived in time. I don't have to see a therapist," I said. "There's just one thing I don't understand," I continued after a short pause. "I couldn't find you after I woke up and Adam refu

    ADAMHis face froze, and that was all of the confirmation that I needed. I chuckled angrily. "You know, I really don't know why I didn't think of it all these years. Of course, you're in love with her. It makes sense that you're in love with her!" I said, accusingly. "I really can't control my feelings, Adam. I am sorry for falling in love with your ex wife and the mother of your child but I can't control how I feel. We met her at the same time. It's a bit unfortunate for me that she chose you over me but I don't feel like there's anything that I can do about this" Lucian said. "Is that why you got Jolie a job in Selena's company? To keep an eye on her?" I asked Lucian. His face went dark. "You were not expecting that I would find out about this, right? What did you really think was going to happen?" I sneered at him. "Did Jolie tell you that? After the experiences you've had with that woman, I thought you'd be smarter than falling for her lies again, that doesn't seem to be th

    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
