ADAM

Jolie was sitting up in the couch waiting for me when I got back home. There was a worried look on her face as she ran to me.

"Where the heck have you been? I have been trying to find you since yesterday. You were supposed to come back home after the private party. Where did you go?" She immediately started to question me..

I was in a bad mood and I wasn't prepared to deal with her questions. I had met Selene again and even though we had sex last night, it was clear that she did not want to have anything to do with me after the way that I had treated her. The last thing I wanted was to deal with this woman I had married .

Marrying Jolie was the biggest regret of my life .I was sad after I believed that Selene actually cheated on me and because she was there for me through it all,.I got married to her. I should have known that it was just a ploy. She just pretended to be there for me because she wanted to be my wife.

    SELENEAriel and I walked into the big mall. My daughter was going to resume school the next day and I wanted to get the best things for her. Since it had been decided that I was going to be staying here for now, I knew that I had to arrange things for her. I had asked my assistant at the company to find me a good school for her. She was able to find a school that was close to my company. And Ariel was even happy about starting a new school. I had thought that Ariel was going to be skeptical about being at a new school and that she was not going to like it but I was in for a shock. Ariel actually liked the idea of attending a new school. I was really happy about it. I got Ariel a new backpack and she was very excited. I held her tiny hand. "Do you want to get new dresses Ariel? So that you can make a good impression on your classmates tomorrow?" I asked Ariel. She nodded her head in excitement. I bought a few dresses for her. I was leaving the mall when I saw a yellow dress. I f

    SELENA"Lucian, what are you doing here?" Jolie was the first person to speak up. She had a sweet smile on her face, and she looked nothing like the woman who had been threatening me just seconds away. I rolled my eyes. Jolie was still the same person that she was seven years ago. A pretender. She only knew how to pretend to be something else in front of everyone. I was really getting sick and tired of her behaviour. "Well, I came here shopping with a female friend..." Lucian looked back and I followed his eyes. I could see a woman who was looking at clothes a short distance away from us. I sneered. Lucian had still not changed. He was still the same playboy that he was in the past. He was best friends with Adam seven years ago, and the way it looked, they were still best friends. He did try to contact me after I left, but I wanted nothing to do with Adam and my past life when I left and so I didn't respond to him at all. I was sure that woman was his latest girlfriend. Joli

    SELENAI was sitting in a cafe with Lucian. He kept looking at me with an odd smile on his face and that really threw me off. I did not understand what he wanted from me and so I had my guards up. "You don't need to be so scared of me, you know. I am not going to eat you. It's just been so long and I really wanted to catch up with you. I want to know what you've been doing all these years," he said to me. I shook my head. "I have been doing well, I guess? Nothing much. I just worked hard to get to where I am today" I said simplyI did not want to give away too much information about my life. I knew it would just go back to Adam anyway. "Come on now Selena. You can't just brush me off with that. Can you tell me what has actually been going on in your life all this while? I am really curious and I do want to know. What do you think?" He asked me. "I...." I opened my mouth to say something, but I held back. "Why do you want to know, Lucian? I don't think that we are that close. I d

    I was pacing in my office. I knew I had to do something, and I had to do it quickly. Selene was never going to agree to be with me if I did not get divorced from Jolie. But Jolie was refusing....I had to find a reason to divorce her. Something that she won't be able to refuse no matter what. I was still brooding when my office door was pushed open and someone walked in. I sighed when I saw that it was Lucian. He was the only one who could come into my office without knocking. "What are you doing here?" I asked him as I took a seat. "I have not seen you since the meeting. I wanted to come see you and see if you are doing well. You have been avoiding me. Did something happen?" Lucian asked me. I rolled my eyes. "You saw her that day didn't you? She's back. She's the last person that I thought I would see again. She's ....she's so much more beautiful than she was in the past. I know that I fucked up when I asked her to leave without listening to her side but I am really sorry. I am

    ADAMI smiled when I heard this. I wondered why I had not thought of it in a long time. Of course, I could always get a divorce as long as Jolie cheats on me.! "Thank you so much! I am sure that I will be able to get a divorce from her in no time!" I said excitedly. Lucian rolled his eyes. "'Come on now. You know that she's never going to leave you. She is not going to cheat on you stupidly. She knows where she stands to lose if she does it. Do you think that Jolie is stupid?" Lucian asked me. "That woman is dumber than you think. With the right push, she will do it. You don't need to worry about how I am going to do it. You just need to know that I am going to do it!" I said firmly. Lucian scoffed "Anyway, that's none of your business. I did not come here to talk about your issues with your wife. There's this new business I want to venture into. It's building ships. It's really profitable now. I think that we can make a lot of money if we work on this together. We need an inves

    ADAMWhen I got back home that day, Jolie was sitting up waiting for me. I was instantly in a bad mood. I had been in a good mood all day thinking about how I was going to finally get rid of her and be with the person I really loved. But seeing her face ruined all of that for me. There was a time when I didn't hate Jolie. At least she used to be my mistress before she became my wife but these days, I just could not bring myself to stand her. I wanted to get rid of her in any way that I could. She really got on my nerves. I could not stand her! Jolie had to know how I felt about her because she frowned when she saw my face. But then, she smiled again. She really did not care. As long as she stayed married to me and continued to enjoy the benefits of being my wife, I was sure that she did not care about anything else. She was all about herself. "You came back home early today. What happened?" Jolie asked me. She walked over to me and tried to put her hands on me but I just pushed

    JOLIE Tears gathered in my eyes but I held it back. I really didn't want to cry because of Adam and Selene. I did not think that both of them were worth my tears. "Adam ..you are going to regret this. You are going to regret ever treating me like this. Selene is going to hurt you and leave you again. Then you are going to realize that I am the only one who's truly here for you!". I snapped at Adam. I turned and started to walk out of the bedroom. It used to be easy for me to seduce Adam. Even if he hated me before this, he did not refuse having sex with me for any reason. But ever since Selene returned ...he changed. "Jolie.." Adam called out to me. I turned to look at him, excitedly. I thought he was going to apologize for the way that he had treated me. He was going to tell me that he was sorry and that he did not mean to treat me in the way that he did. "I really don't care what you do, but you had better leave Selene alone. She did not do anything to you. But you've been t

    JOLIE When I opened my eyes the next morning, I was lying on a strange bed. I looked around me and I realised that I was in a hotel room. I jumped up at once as I tried to remember what happened and how I got here. The events of the previous day started to come back to me. Adam had been mean to me as he usually was and I felt like I could not take it anymore. I had gone to the bar to drink and somehow I was talking to this guy and then we left the bar. I remember that he had brought me back to the hotel....I didn't want to go in with him at first but I was really drunk and there was no way that I could stop myself. I ended up having sex with him.Just thinking about it made me want to slam my head on a wall. I really hated that I had been so foolish! I knew better than to have sex with a man that I barely knew! Besides, I was married to Adam! If Adam found out about this, it would be the end of our marriage! He had been looking for ways to divorce me and this was the perfect exc

    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

    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

    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

    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

    SELENA"My father is a man who only understands the language of violence. I have tried to talk to him several times over the years, but he just refuses to listen to me. I want to speak to him in the language he understands!" Adam told me. I shook my head. He really was not willing to be reasonable. "Do you think that just because he is my father I am going to let him get away with doing whatever he wants? I have already washed my hands off him and my mother. I know that she is never going to leave him. But I am not going to let him act the way he wants under my roof. Ariel was in that house yesterday. What do you think would have happened if she had seen him slap my mother yesterday? I just want to be a good father? " Adam asked me. I shook my head. I felt like Adam did not understand any of the words that I had been saying to him from the beginning. He was just doing whatever he wanted and using Ariel as an excuse. "It seems you didn't listen to any of the things I have been sayi

    I was sitting on the ground as I watched Adam pull Selena away. I was boiling in anger just watching them go. All of this was that woman's fault. She was the one who caused this. Adam wasn't that kind of person before! Ever since she came into his life ...I was upset just thinking about it! I wanted to get rid of her! "Someone....someone help..." I heard Philip call from inside the office. I rushed inside to help him and I gasped when I saw how beaten up he was! Adam was crazy! He was fucking crazy! "Call.....call the ambulance!" He said. .I nodded my head and started to make the call. ....Janet rushed to the hospital as soon as I called her and told her the situation. She was there in less than ten minutes. "What....what happened to him?" She asked me as she rushed to me. I eyed the older woman in front of me. I felt like she was also to blame for this. She and Selena were the cause of this situation. Adam hit his father because ha wanted to stand up for her. She was s

    "You want me to leave? I am sorry, but I didn't do that. I am not going to leave. You are quick at using your fists on defenseless women and children right? Well, since you like violence so much, I figured you would like it when you're the one on the receiving end. What do you think?" I asked. My father started to move away from me. "Adam, I don't know what your mother told you, but I know that you can't just listen to one side of the story. She..." I did not want to hear whatever excuse he had. I punched my father hard. He fell to the ground in no time. Time had really taken a toll on him and he was not as strong as he was in the past. It was better for me ..he had picked on me when I was a weak defenseless kid and I would do the same to him. "Adam! I am your father! How dare you treat me like this?" He yelled at me. I kicked my father, without a single care for our father son relationship. "It's exactly because I am your son. Where do you think I learned from this?! It's fro

    SELENA Ariel and I went back home together the next day. Because she was not willing to part with her father just yet, Adam drove with us back home. They even played some more before he had to leave. I felt awkward around Adam and I did not know how I was supposed to act. We had sex the previous night ..did that mean we were together? We did not get a chance to talk about it because Ariel had come knocking and we had to make ourselves presentable. I was tired of running away from Adam. I knew I loved him, I would never love another man the way I loved him In fact, I would never fall for anyone else. If I didn't get together with Adam, I would stay single for the rest of my life. I knew that he was really putting in effort to change and to be a better man for our daughter. I didn't want to keep running away from him when he was doing so much. I walked out with him when he was done playing with Ariel. I thought Adam was going to talk about what happened between us last night

    "I will always be here for you " I said and kissed him on the lips. Adam's eyes went wide when I did this. He had not been expecting this. I pulled away from him and smiled, but just then, Adam grabbed my waist and pulled me back to himself. He kissed me. It wasn't just a peck. This time, he properly kissed me. I responded to the kiss, and we pulled and tugged at each other's lips. The kiss made me realize that I wanted more, so I did not hesitate when Adam led me to the bed. I helped him when he took off my clothes, and when he entered me in one swift stroke, I felt fulfilled. ......LILY "What was all of that about ,Philp?" I asked. I could tell that something was wrong when I saw Janet leave. In fact, I could already guess what had happened to her. There wasn't a single person in our circle who did not know that Philp hit Janet. This was the reason I did not take her seriously. I knew she could not help me when it came to Adam and so I did not waste my time on her. She
