Adina’s POVTyson rushed up to me trying to defend and plead on my behalf, but the dude in the room wasn’t an easygoing guy. All Tyson’s please tell on deaf ears, soon the guy called our managing director which was Of course Ace, at this point I knew I was done for.But to my surprise, just the look on Tyson’s face made Ace act normal, he didn’t scold me he just acted calmly and asked for a cleaner to come clean up the mess. I guess the fear of getting beaten is the beginning of wisdom. Tyson asked for a first aid box and I wondered why until I felt a sharp pain on my leg, I looked downwards and noticed that I was cut by the glass pieces. The first aid box arrived in no time and he was about dressing my wound, though I resisted but he was adamant as always. But unfortunately, his fiancée walked in and met us in that position, with a jealous and hurt face she asked. “Tyson? Is this the way to the kitchen?”“Oh, oh,” he mumbled.I curled out a smile staring at them both doing a lot o
Adina’s POV I looked at Tyson, who was sitting quietly watching me, then back at the drunken men. Contemplating on what decision to make, I looked back at the men as their paces had increased, now I’ve been caught in between. Looking at the situation on the ground I had no choice, I immediately rushed into the car panting heavily.“Drive Tyson! Drive!”“I thought you said you weren’t going to come with me?” He said trying to tease me.“Tyson please, not now, just drive.” He chuckled before stepping on the accelerator and off we went. The drive home was silent as we both didn’t say a word to each other. We got to my place and I immediately got down from the car after saying a thank you for today. I was about leaving when he stopped me with his words.“Good night Mamacita.”A drop of tear escaped my eyes the minute he called me that, that was what he called me when we were together, and right now that name brought back memories. I slowly turned to him and said.“Goodnight Tyson.”I c
Tyson’s POV There I was enjoying the view of the city from my balcony on my rooftop, feeling all lonely and deserted even though I had all I wanted but I lost one thing: my true happiness. The morning was so cool and refreshing and made me feel more relaxed. Being with Sophie didn’t bring that back to me , it only brought one problem and continuous nagging. “Buzz, buzz.”I was interrupted by the buzz from my phone, speaking of her and she calls. It was Sophie on the line, I wondered what had gone wrong this time. “TYSON!!”“What the?” The scream alone was enough to make the dead alive as I removed the phone from my ear before I go deaf instantly. I knew something was definitely wrong when she called. “What the hell Sophie? Do you wish to make me deaf?”“Tyson, she called, ignoring my question. My career is at stake Tyson. I’m doomed.”“What is wrong this time?”“The pictures Tyson, the pictures and videos.”“Please elaborate.”“Tyson, she called again this time like she was alread
Adina’s POV Oh how refreshing that bath was, It was the weekend already and the news about me and Tyson had died down, I guess he had taken care of that already, what a relief. However the pictures of both of us weren’t taken down, but those of Sophie were. I wondered if he was the one who ordered that they be left online or was the blogger too stubborn. I checked my time and it was and to my surprise it was 7:00 am already. It only means one thing for me, it’s Gym o’clock. Emma usually goes with me so I decided to call her to confirm if she would be joining me today. Her phone rang several times without response until the third time. “Hey, Emma.”“Hey, babes.”“How are you?”“I’m good, what’s popping?”“Emma, it's the weekend already.”“Yeah? What happens during weekends?”“EMMA?! You can’t be serious right now.”“What did I say wrong?”“Emma, it’s Gym o’clock today.”“Oh nooooo,” she whined. Emma doesn’t like going to the gym that much but sometimes she does just so she could han
Tyson’s POVWe were still busy with the exercises, an hour had past already and now she was doing some air push ups which I assisted her with. Just then a familiar figure walked in, it was Adina looking all ravishing and sexy in her gym clothes. I got distracted from Sophie which made her fall down landing flat on her butt. Oh shit. I’m doomed. I looked down at Sophie who was already giving me those death glares.“Really Tyson? Really? All because of her? Is she really worth it?”“I’m really sorry.” She tried to stand but couldn’t.“Ahh!” “What’s the matter?”“I think I sprained my ankle due to the fall.”I had to carry her up so we could both go to the clinic to get her treated. She kept on nagging on how she never wanted to come but she did all because of me. I kept on apologizing but that didn’t stop her from her continuous nagging. We got to the nearby clinic and Sophie was taken into one of the wards, I was about leaving when she called me back asking me to stay with her. But
Trent’s POV“You son of a bi**h. How dare you do that to her huh? You think I didn’t see you back there huh? ” I said sternly to Ace pushing him against the wall in the bathroom.“What’s wrong with you man? Chill”“What’s wrong with me? Is that what you’re asking me right now?”“She’s just a low life girl, why bother yourself this much about her?”With that I gave him a hard punch to his face. “You’d better stay away from her.” You probably must be wondering why I’m in this position with this jerk. Well, he made Adina trip and almost fell, if not for Tyson, who was quick to catch her from falling, it was pretty obvious that he did that on purpose but nobody cared to say anything or even deal with him. But for some reason it hurts me deeply and even more watching Adina and Tyson in such a position with a stage light shining directly at them, grasping every single person’s attention. Sometimes I really find it hard to understand this Tyson guy, and why he doesn’t want to keep off fro
Adina’s POV My heart sank the minute she mentioned that name. I stared down at her as my eyes became moist. Emma looked at me knowing exactly how I felt, and she gave me a hug.I pulled out of the hug and bent down to Ava looking straight into her eyes and said. “Ava, never be scared when you’re with your doll okay? Ricky is going to take good care of you and fight for you okay?”“Okay, mommy.” She nodded her head innocently not actually understanding the deep meaning of that statement. Oh, how I miss my boy so much. I spent the whole weekend with her and left very early on Monday morning so I could get ready for work. Emma didn’t stay for the weekend as she had said that she still had a few things to take care of back at home so she left the same day we arrived. But I needed all the time in the world with my princess.I got to work and a shocking thing happened during noon. Mr. Millwood, who is the owner of the M’Hotels and also Trent’s Dad announced that Tyson was now a sharehold
Adina’s POVI got home and got dressed for the dinner date, but my happiness was almost cut short when I met Sophie and Tyson in the same VIP room where I was supposed to be having my date with Trent. No, not again.Sophie gave me a smirk when she noticed my presence and kept on romancing Tyson’s face. I have never rolled my eyes like I did today staring at them until Trent came by and took my hand, leading me to our table which was just next to each other with just one table separating us. The distraction from Tyson and Sophie made me fail to admire the beauty of the VIP unit. It was so quiet, organized, and beautiful. I took a quick glance at Tyson as he tried hard to hide the string of jealousy showing evidently, as Trent held my hands. Sophie noticed that the attention was now drifting away from her, so she started saying meaningless things just to get Tyson’s attention. I just gave her a smirk before sitting admiring the meals Trent had ordered. Trent really knows me so well, s
Adina’s POVI woke up to a light kiss on my forehead and lips. I slowly opened my eyes and there he was the most handsome man on earth staring at me with his cute baby eyes. “Wake up sleepy head, it's our freedom day” he said.Yeah, it's our wedding day today, and Tyson is so excited to relive this moment, with his reaction no one needs a microphone to announce that he's been waiting for this day to come or probably dreaming a lot about this day. “Alright I'm up.” I said sitting upright. Just then, he placed a tray containing hot tea with some pancakes with a smiley face design on my lap. Oh, my world, I missed this so much. Tyson is such a great cook, and this right here is one of my favorite dish I enjoyed so much. “Aww, you served me breakfast in bed?”“Of course I did, I missed doing this, and I miss your smile that comes with it, Sophie was…..”“Uh-uh, I won't allow you to spoil this magical moment by mentioning her, just allow me to eat my food in peace.”“Yeah, that's a real
Tyson’s POV“So please, I’m begging you. Would you marry me? Again?”“Tyson?” she called out with teary eyes. “Are you serious?”“Of course I am. I figured this could be the best time to ask this, now that Sophie is out of the picture, and you want to make things right. It's better I do this now before you change your mind.” She chuckled at my words. She was about to say something when suddenly the doctor, three nurses, plus Emma rushed in.“Come on now peeps, do you really have to spoil this moment for me?”“Wait what? Mr. Tyson but you seem alright?”“Of course I'm alright doc, and now you just ruined my proposal with your presence.”“Then who was pushing the beside bell calling for attention.”Currently it dawned on me, I placed my hands on some button beside my bed, but how was I supposed to know what it does? I've never been to the hospital before, this was my first time.“Uh — uh, sorry doc, I think I'm the one.” I said removing my hand from the button with a weird smile.“Mr.
Tyson’s POV I squinted my brows trying really hard to remember where I've heard that before? And when it finally dawned on me, a stream of tears dropped on my cheeks.“Ricky. Ricky.” I called out as Adina joined me in tears too.This was the same room Ricky was laid when he was being given last office treatments. I remember clearly. Though I wasn't here before he died, I was here after. I guess that’s the reason, Adina is so upset to date. I could have done better, I should have been here before he died like he was asking for. Nonetheless, we both knew that he wouldn't make it due to his illness, but we were just hopeful, the least I could do was show up, But I didn't.“Yes Tyson, at least you remembered this one,” Adina said.“This was the same bed where our son died, and I was petrified of losing you on this same spot. It would be a heavy blow to my chest.” She added.Wait, what? Did she just say she’s scared of losing me? Or did I not hear her clearly enough? “Adina? You’re scar
Adina’s POVThat was the same ward Ricky was rolled into before he died. Tears rolled down my cheeks yet again. Emma quickly understood and held me lightly in my hand, jolting me out of my thoughts. “It's okay, he's going to be fine,” she whispered.I took a deep breath and thanked the receptionist before heading to the private ward. We got to the front door and his name was written boldly on the wall.“TYSON BRICKS.”I took another breath again before opening the door slowly. Ava quickly rushed in and went to her father’s bedside.She took about five minutes to scrutinize his whole body from head to toe, and slowly raised her head up looking straight into my eyes.“Mommy, I look just like my daddy.” she finally said something after what felt like forever.I broke down in tears hearing her tiny voice and little mind watching her dad in comparison with herself.“Daddy, you're alive. Where have you been Dad? My friends mocked me a lot that I didn't have a father but thank god I met you
Adina’s POV Haven’t you punished me enough? I cried inwardly.I walked back to her with a straight face, hoping I could get her to talk.“Ava? Your aunt tells me you’ve refused to eat since yesterday. Can you at least tell momma what the matter is?”“You are the matter mummy, you are?” She said with a teary voice and moist eyes. I couldn’t believe my eyes as I watched my little girl shed tears.“Did you know yesterday in school mommy, my friends laughed at me because I didn’t have a dad? I told them what you told me that my dad is a hero in the sea world but that even didn’t help, it only made matters worse as they began calling me a sea girl.”“I was mocked by my friends, mom. I just sat down and watched after the close of school as their dads just kept coming to pick them up, I cried mom, I really cried.”I stood there dumbfounded, and in shock. Here I was thinking my baby was doing all fine, little did I know that she had started to endure all this from a very young age and fake a
Adina’s POV “Sophie, just pray that you leave this place alive after I’m done with you.” I mumbled, still with the rage inside me. I stood there watching and recording all the atrocities she has committed until today. She tried to escape, but the house was already on automatic shut down. Tyson smiled weakly, thinking he was the god of magic that had placed the house on shutdown. His face was now becoming pale as he was already losing a lot of blood.I thought I could still contain the rage a little longer, but I lost it when she was about to pull the trigger on my HUSBAND. I quickly rushed in and pounced on her.“This is for wanting to frame my husband ” I said as I sat on her, giving her a resounding slap.“This is for, making him absent during my son's death.” I said, again, giving her another dose.“This is for snatching him away from me”“This is for the several times you stressed the living light out of him.”“This is for the embarrassment you caused him”“This is for taking aw
Tyson’s POVI opened my eyes slowly to see myself in the clinic with a nurse beside me. I tried raising myself up but felt a sharp pain in my leg, my mind flashed back to yesterday’s incident. “Hey, hey, sir you can't get up now okay, you're just recovering from a coma, you have to regain yourself first.”Wait, what? A coma? What coma? When was that? “Sorry, did I hear you say a coma?” I asked.“Yes sir, a coma”“You were rushed in during the early hours of the morning three days ago, you were bleeding all over your leg which, I think, was a result of a gunshot,” she replied“What?” I've been here for three days? What happened? How did I get here? Right, Adina, what happened in her struggle with Sophie? I had so many questions running through my head and because of this, I felt a sharp pain.“Don't stress too much sir, all you need right now is rest, the doctor will join you any minute” the nurse said about to leave“Umm, please. How was I brought in here?” I asked.“Well, an ambul
Adina’s POV“WHERE'S SHE!!!”He screamed with a loud voice with rage evident on his face.“Ahhh!!” I also screamed in shock and fear.“Ma’am! “Ma’am?”“Ahhh!! No, no no.”“Ma’am.”I woke up out of fear. I took a brief look at my surroundings and for some reason I'm now in the train station. Wait, was that a dream? “Ma'am, we're here.” a man said which I presumed was the driver, but he wasn't talking or even answering my cries a while ago. Or was it really a dream? I thought. Well, thank goodness that it was, I quickly got down from the car and headed straight to the station to get a ticket. Called Trent on the way to thank him, I was about to enter the train heading to see my beautiful daughter when all of a sudden the thought of Tyson hit me. He’s been really trying all he could to get us back together, at least if not for anything, for my little girl. “You shouldn’t starve her from her father’s love, not that he’s dead or lost.” a voice echoed in my head. I took a pause in my tr
Tyson’s POV “LEAVE.” I yelled with every single strength left in me.”“Ty…” she called out again“One more word from you, Sophie, you’d know what I’m capable of.”“You know what, fuck you Tyson.” She said bringing out a gun from the bedside drawer. “You think this is how it’s going to end huh, you think I’d just let you go Scott free, huh? Haven’t you ruined my life enough? The greatest mistake I ever did wrong was to love you Tyson, and you chose to pay me this way?”“Sophie….”“Shut the fuck up, Tye!!!” She screamed.“Oh you’re surprised? Guess the table just took a U-turn Tye. If I can’t have you, then no one can.”“Sophie, please don’t do this.”“Oh really? So you do have a mouth to plead, huh? Oh Tyson, how I’m not going to miss your cute face at all.” She said with a smirk on her face.“Sophie please, don’t kill me, please I’m begging.”“Hahaha, kill you? Oh, Tyson, are you really that dumb? I’m not killing you. Look around you, Tyson. Every single thing going on right now has
