James’ POV

“How the HELL DID THIS HAPPEN??!!” I barked at Harry's face in anger as I faced him.

I was boiling in rage after glancing through the state of my company's stock.

Everything was depreciating.

“Boss… I have no idea, believe me.” Harry shivered frantically.

“You have no idea?” I scoffed in disgust.

“I gave you an assignment to contact me ASAP if you notice any waiver in our stock, what were you doing?” I asked him curtly.

“After dropping Miss. Leena at your mansion, I returned to the company but on getting here, the whole thing had already happened and I was informed late.” He explained to me rashly and I rolled my eyes away from him.

“That bitch! Don't you ever mention her name!” I gnashed my teeth in fury.

This had never happened before. It was something predictable but the shocking part was that even the marketing wasn't given a heads-up.

I roughly scratched my hair and picked up the tablet from my desk.

My eyes slowly turned red as I stared at the digits in anger.

I haven't spent a week here neither have I gotten to know more about my cousins. Why are you chasing me away?” He asked in distraught.“I'm not chasing you away, sweetie. It's for your own good.” I tried to assure him sadly.“My own good?” He scoffed, rolling his eyes away from me.“Is there something you are hiding away from me?” He asked anxiously and I swallowed hard on nothing.James knew my vulnerability and he would do everything possible to get a hold of it. I wanted him far away from this mess until everything was settled.

Thankfully I gave him a cheat code last night else he would be left to explain everything to them.But, was he okay or just pretending to be?“Okay champs, come have breakfast,” I said, placing the dishes on the dining table.“Wow! Momma made honey pancakes!” CJ gasped in excitement.“Yaay!” They quickly had their seats while Sean walked slowly.“Dad, we stayed up all night waiting for you but you never returned,” JC complained as we began eating delicately.“I did. Maybe my little champs were dozing off by then.” He said teasingly and they laughed heartily.His brows furrowed when he saw an empty seat and he turned to me.“I believe Kelvin was here yesterday, where is he?” He asked anxiously.“Oh, he visited his old hospital to greet his ex-doctor before leaving,” I said slyly as I returned to my meal.“Tasty!” My kiddies nodded their heads in excitement.

    Leena's POV “Hey sweetie, where have you been?” Sean met with me as I was about to enter the hall.I was coming out of the restroom axis.“I was looking for you when Hailey left until I got an unexpected visitor.” I rambled with words, sounding annoyed.“Hope all is good?” He asked rhetorically, raising an anxious brow and I nodded.“Yeah, I’m good,” I said with a sharp exhale.“Did you finish with your business?” I changed the topic as we walked back into the bustling hall.“Fortunately it was successful.” He said, nodding his head as a smile formed on his lips.“Surprised how you are acquainted with Hailey,” I said, intentionally trying to get to the end of it.It would be a big lie if he tried to act clueless.“Yeah, she used to work for me at the company.” He said slyly.“Just that?” I curled my lips and he faced me.“I was expecting something else. I mean, do you know who she was before now?” I asked, raising an anxious brow.“Of course I did.” He snapped me out, gulping the win

    James’ POVJust as I was walking out of my estate, someone grabbed me by the collar and threw me a hard punch.“Who the hell…” I suddenly stopped talking when I saw the person before me.“Leena?” I almost gasped in shock.Her punch was not something I expected from her as it was also hard.“What is the meaning of this?” I asked her in annoyance.“I should be asking you that question, asshole!” She yelled at my face in anger.“Can you tell me what the fuck is going on?” I fired at her curtly.“Where are my children? Where did you take my kids to?” She asked me anxiously as her eyes wandered around my estate and back at me.“Where?” She made a comeback, pushing me away.“I don't know what you are talking about.” I dusted off my squeezed suit.“You think I'm joking, right?” Her words hadn't landed when I started hearing sirens approaching my estate.“You brat, what are you doing!” I gritted my teeth in anger.“What does it look like? Until you bring my kids, you will remain in jail.” She

    Leena's POV“Can you tell me what happened, my Sonshine?” I cuddled them as I sat on the armchair.I hadn't been able to get myself back in order because I was truly happy to see them again.These past few days that they went missing, I was uncomfortable and hadn't been able to close my eyes.It was a great relief to have them back in my arm and the sweetest was that, no harm came to them.They were still looking good with no injuries.CJ squeezed me into his arms.“We were so scared Momma, why did they take us away? Did we do something wrong?” He asked dolefully as I stroked his back gently.“They threatened to hurt you Momma, they warned us to keep quiet else they will hurt our Momma.” JC cried out and I embraced them with a smile.“You don't have to be afraid again, my Sonshine. From now on, your dad and I will be with you and make sure no harm comes to you.” I assured them lovingly.“Momma, we are super hungry. We weren't fed well.” CJ groaned and I smirked.“That's not a problem,

Is he truly our father?” CJ asked anxiously.“That does not change anything, does it?” I asked, curling my lips.“Leena, stop trying to make me look like a wicked father in front of the kids.” He shunned me.“If you were a good man, would I have run away from home?” I asked him in annoyance and he fell shut.“I regret meeting you, James. And to tell you what, whether they are your kids or not, you can never come near them.” I threatened him seriously.“That isn't for you to say, Leena. Let the children make their decisions.” He gritted his teeth in anger.“Oh really?” I smirked as my gaze dropped on my Sonshine and they shook their head almost immediately.“I don't want you to be my Daddy. I already have a Dadda.” JC said politely.“My brother is right. Our Dadda is good to us and our Momma loves him too

    James’ POV“Boss, at this point, it will be best if we give up on Miss. Leena and find a new opportunity.” Harry's voice came up in the quiet room and I faced him with anger boiling through my eyes.“Are you deaf and dumb? The twins are mine! They are my flesh and blood!” I reminded him in anger.“How can you of all people advise me to move on?” I questioned him in disbelief.“Boss, have you suggested Parental Care to Miss. Leena? Maybe she would agree to it.” He said calmly.“She wouldn't even let me stay close to my own children, why would she agree to something that stupid?” I scoffed, rolling my eyes away.“This is bad, so do you have any suggestions for her?” He asked but I didn't respond to him.“Taking this matter to court will also end in her own favor so right now, we are at her mercy.” He spilled the bitter truth I was trying to hide from myself and I sighed heavily.“Harry, can you give me a minute to think?” I faced him in anger.“Rather than sorting out solutions for me,

She rejected my offer.” I spilled bluntly, throwing my jacket on the armchair.“Arghh!” I groaned in annoyance and despair.It felt so bitter to lose and it was so painful when it was coming from someone you never expected.“Boss, please calm down.” He said sadly but unfortunately, his words were no longer soothing again.“We have to come up with another plan.” He made a comeback and I shot him a cold stare.“What other plans can we come up with when she always crumbles them and finds her way out of it?” I rambled with words, firing him several questions.“Right now, we have only one problem which is Mr. Sean.” He said skeptically.“What does Sean have to do in this matter?” I questioned him in disgust, raising an anxious brow.He walked closer to me. “Remember when you tried to convince and win your children over, what happened when Mr. Sean showed up?” He asked, staring a

    “[BREAKING NEWS: Mr. and Mrs. Sean were the victims of an explosion around the isolated part of the city, the cause of the explosion is yet…]” Almost all the television, radios, and phones were announcing the same news. “How did this happen?” Leena's mother rushed into the emergency ward. “How come? How did something like this happen to both of them?” Leena's father asked anxiously as anxiety lingered in his eyes. “That shouldn't be our problem now.” Sean's father cried out. “What do you mean?” Leena's mother stared at him intently. “Only Sean's body was found at the explosion scene.” He paused. “Leena…. Leena…” He continued stuttering. “What are you implying?” Leena's father's lips started trembling. “Leena's body wasn't found.” Sean's mother spilled bluntly and the latter gasped in shock. It felt like they were electrocuted as they didn't speak or move for minutes. “Leena!!! How? Why?” Leena's mother wailed as she rambled with several questions. “We don't know. Sean barely

Is something going on?” He asked anxiously, raising a brow. “Everything is fine.” I placed a hand on his shoulder. “Thank you for everything. From beginning till the end, I truly appreciate it.” I said, forcing out a smile. “Thanks for trusting me.” He said courteously with a short bow. “Did you bring the car and prepare all that I told you to?” I asked him impatiently and he sighed. “I can't believe I did something like this.” He paused. “I trust you are sending this over to someone else, if not, I will blame myself forever if something happens to you.” He said sadly and I smirked. “I'm just trying to set things the way they were in the past. It's never your fault.” I assur

Where is James?” I fired at him anxiously. “He is not around at the moment.” He said, lowering his face to the ground and I knew he was lying. “I know that brat is in there. James! James! James!” I started banging at the gate again in anger. “Open this gate and let me in!” I barked at his face. “I'm sorry but I was asked not to open the gate for you.” He said randomly. “Harry, your boss is doing something evil! He is ruining my family. Will you still try to protect him till the end?” I asked him, raising a brow and he shook his head. “Please, leave Mrs. Sean.” He said coldly. “I can't believe you. All of you are evil. I won't let any of you go scout-free.” I cried bitterly. “Mrs. Sean, please leave n

    Leena's POV “James! James, you bastard! Come out here and atone for your sins!” I screamed while banging the gate. This had been going on for more than two hours yet he wasn't in sight. Was he ignoring me? He ruined Sean. He ruined my family and gave us sleepless nights. Why was he so wicked? “How did we get here?” I cried out with all my veins showing through my neck as I collapsed to the ground. As my eyes closed, old memories rushed through like adrenaline. I couldn't control or help it as I cried profusely. Sharp Flashback - “You're here.” He walked confidently to my corner and handed me a bunch of roses. I smiled. “Wow, thank you.” I gushed. “Come with me.” I took his hand as he walked me up to the round table. My eyes met with the plate on the table, a small cupcake was in the center and the chef designed a love shape around it. At the sides of the shape, there was a short note. “Be Mine Forever.” I was taken aback, flustered, and shocked. “James…’’ I trailed of

    Leena's POV “Officer, I can't believe you fell for those words he stated. He is lying!” I couldn't control my emotions as I yelled at the police officer in anger. “What do you mean?” He scoffed. “I know the man I married. James would and will never have any twins!” I said seriously. “But he showed us evidence and everything. He also had an alibi that made it hard for us to point him as the victim.” He rashly explained to me. “Am I blind or something? How come for so many years when I was married to him, I never heard of or seen his so-called twin brother? Why are you falling for these lies? I mean, you can even ask around to know if this is true!” I rambled with words in annoyance, firing several questions at them. “We are sorry, Mrs. Sean. We have to follow this case slowly. Besides, he has good connections and I'm afraid of losing my job.” He said skeptically and I smirked. “What? So, you are trying to save your head rather than bringing justice to me? Where is my detective? W

I told you not to insert bullets in the guns as we are only going to scare them!” I reminded them in disgust. “We are sorry boss but…” they trailed off when the door of the warehouse made a loud noise. My father approached us with a deep mischievous laugh. “I told them to do so.” He spilled bluntly and my jaw dropped. “What?” It was too hard to believe and the only way to protect my emotion was to act clueless. “I told them to pull the trigger if Leena or her so-called husband refused to hand over my grandchildren.” He informed me seriously and I scoffed in disbelief. “Father!” I cried out sadly as a big frown took residence on my face. “What?” He gave me a scornful look. “We can't afford to hurt anyone or play dirty.” I reminded him seriously. “This is my g

Isn't it taking too long?” Her mother panicked.“It is. It is but I can't barge in, can I?” I raised an anxious brow.“How did this happen? You were impatient over the phone so we didn't get the full details.” Her father's voice came up, staring at me.“We were at home, thinking about how to tighten our safety since I wasn't comfortable with the kidnap case.” I began.“I was shocked when I heard he had broken the mansion gate with his men.” I sighed heavily.“Everything happened so fast and it was only the sound of the gun that brought me back to earth,” I explained meticulously and they shook their heads in disbelief.“That brat has grown so bold!” Her mother gnashed her teeth.“He pushed my daughter to this state, does he thin
