All of a sudden all of them were trying to set her up. If it was not her father then it was Monica. Why can’t they understand that she needs time for herself? She rolled her eyes.“What! Don’t fucking play with my intelligence. The three of us grew up together and we used to play in school. Don’t you remember him at all?” Monica’s voice was cold and irritated.The image of the boy came in to her mind immediately. All these years, she tried to let go of her past life in order not to worry or miss her friends. Jackson was a great friend and they shared a lot together. She would have liked to meet him but as a friend and nothing more.“I remember him now “Caroline said thoughtfully.“Fine…. I will arrange for us to meet one of these days. Trust me, he is someone that you will need in your inner circle. All that I know is that Jackson was the one who was most affected with your departure than any other person that I know of . The guy couldn’t even talk to people for months. One day, he c
She had turned back and headed out to cool down. It wasn’t time to confront him yet. She was still patient enough to make him fall for her again. If she did it in the past, she can do it again. She knew his weaknesses more than anyone in this world. “I am sorry if I am too intrusive but I feel lonely. Can I stay with you for tonight? Can you hold me tight? I really miss your sweet cuddles. I couldn’t get them out of my head all these years. “She said and that was when Wesley became rude.“May I remind you that we aren’t married yet, so each one of us need to stay in his or her own house. Until we walk down the aisle, there will be no having sex or kissing or doing anything of that sort “he snarled back looking at her with disgust.Paula bowed her head down. She couldn’t bear to see his rage neither did she have an idea of what was wrong with him“Wesley, ever since I came back, you have never touched me and now this? Do you still love me or not? As for me, I know what is in my hea
“Mum…. I think that Wesley is having second thoughts. He was actually cold to me tonight. what should I do?” Paula asked. She never liked to be challengedSophia became alert immediately.“Whatever it is, you must not lose him. We need him or else we are finished. You are a woman. You will know what to do but just don’t let him get back together with Caroline. I hate that woman with every bit of my heart. Your grandmother always loved Jane and disregarded me like I was nothing. Even after that bitch’s death, she still loved her child ““You just don’t know how much I hate that slut, but her days are numbered. I will find her and teach her a lesson for trying to take my man. Don’t worry, I know what to do. I will update you soon” she said and hung up the call.While looking at a distance, Paula saw a ditch. She smiled with mischievousness.What if she got in to an accident? Will Wesley still be indifferent to her? Slowly by slowly, she will make him not question or doubt her.“I won’t
“I am sorry ma’am but my boss specifically told me to take you to your house “the driver was startled by her request. knowing how grumpy Wesley could be. He didn’t want his trouble.“Didn’t he tell you that I am the new Mrs. Storm? He wouldn’t mind whether you take me to my house or his house. Soon, I will be living in his house permanently and you will be my favorite. All that I want is to make up for all those years that I wasn’t around “she said convincingly.Of course, everyone knew that his boss was in love with Paula. The driver had no choice but to take her to Wesley’s house.A few minutes later, Wesley was sitting in his office reviewing various documents. There was one that he was specifically looking for but he wasn’t seeing it. The contract that he was supposed to sign with Morgan Corporation. Morgan Corporation was the biggest real estate company in the region and sometimes he thought that it was luck that he got the chance to work with them. They also have franchise in
Even after he made it clear that they should live separately, she still invited herself in to his house. His head was now hurting. Why was this woman so stubborn? Or was he the one who have changed over the years?“Paula, this is not nice at all. Did you remove Caroline’s things? Who the fucking hell told you to touch her things?” he yelled as he advanced on her with rage clearly visible in his eyes.” Caroline was my wife and I am the only one who is going to decide what to do with her belongings?”“They are just useless things “Paula snapped impatiently.“Listen, I am going to take my bath. Make sure that by the time that I come back, they are well arranged the way that they were. Please …I really don’t want trouble with you “he muttered and then disappeared in to the bathroom.Paula clenched her fist so hard that her nails tore through her flesh. She didn’t even feel the pain because she was so furious.“You might have won now, bitch but little by little I will burn away your f
She looked in to his sparkling green eyes and was glad that she accepted to come with him to this party. Even if they just met, no one would have protected her against this two apart from Jack.She didn’t want to owe him a favor but at this time she knew that she needed him.” Thank you “she muttered shyly while avoiding his eyes. She can look at anything else but not this man who seemed to be offering her a second chance that she wasn’t interested in. Right now, she had no room for something else but her revenge and today marks her first day.The man smiled on her face and then whispered. “I promised that I will protect you, okay. Just tell me what you want me to do with them and I will do it “he said looking at Wesley and Paula sideways.“Just let them be. I think that they are my main guests. This show wouldn’t be possible without their tremendous efforts in destroying my life when I did nothing to them.”Paula sneered ridiculously. she still had no idea who Jack Baron was.“This
He hesitated and took a sip of his water.“I was blessed with a beautiful baby girl who I loved so much. Then a tragedy knocked on our door and I lost her 10 years ago but now I have her and she is dazzling. I am so proud of her and words can’t be enough to express how I feel.”Wesley’s heart started to beat faster. This was not a coincidence, Caroline was the lost heir to the Morgan Corporation and that was why things weren’t making sense to him in recently.“Every one, give a good round of applause for your new in coming CEO, Caroline Morgan. sweetheart, come on up here and give your daddy a hug.” Dismas said as Jack escorted her to the podium.Wesley’s shock was now evident in his eyes. “No…..it can’t be . That bitch can’t be the heir to this huge fortune. She was just an abandoned slut. Why did she have to get all the good things while I literary have to beg? My mother must hear about this. “Paula looked at her with hate.She was so jealous. Caroline had all the good things in t
Caroline couldn’t believe this man “When I said that I am leaving for good, I meant it. I am starting my life over and you should do the same. I don’t want to remember anything do have to do with you and that was why I blocked you. “He gritted his teeth impatiently “I will hack that phone of yours if I want to. Don’t you know what lengths I am capable of going to?”“Why are you forcing yourself on me, Mr. Storm?”He held the back of her head and looked in to her brown eyes. Gosh…...he didn’t realize how he had missed her. He never even noticed before how gorgeous she looked.His obsession with finding Paula didn’t allow him to appreciate her. He just hoped that it wasn’t too late for the two of them. Without thinking, he captured her mouth and started kissing her furiously.He held her in to place with his strong hands and she couldn’t move away.Caroline pushed him back with all her strength. She wasn’t going to allow herself to get entangled in his wickedness. He was cheap and di
Caroline was so impatient that she felt like provoking him just to revenge on all the anxiety that she has had over the past weeks. He just can’t come out from the blue and demand explanation about her personal life. She was not obligated to tell him.“What …you are coming with me.” His face creased as anger boiled inside his body. All that he wanted was to see her and hold her close. why can’t the two of them just behave like normal adults for once in their lives. At once he picked her up on his should and placed her on the passenger seat.Caroline felt her anger increasing.“What are you doing? I don’t want to go with you. Please put me down. I want to go back to my sleep “Caroline resisted but Wesley wouldn’t listen to her.No matter how vulnerable she was towards him, she felt that she wasn’t going to behave today.Wesley placed her down on the chair and then closed the door. He watched her closely and he got to realize that truthfully, he hasn’t been fair to her.After going b
“All that I want now is to take care of myself. I don’t care about anything to do with the company. My mother can have it if she wants. You know what, I used to think that Agnes loved me but I was wrong. How does a mother do that to her child? I really don’t understand her. It is like she has turned in to a different person.” “Should I tell her the truth about his mother or what?” Caroline debated internally. As much as Caroline felt his pain. she still couldn’t trust him with such kind of information. He was vulnerable and couldn’t be depended on.“Jack, I am glad that you have come back to your senses. I don’t trust Agnes at all but I will tell you this. Fight for your company. It rightfully belongs to you and no one else is ever going to take care for your father’s legacy if not you, okay. I don’t need you to return anything to me. I have managed to bring back Morgan corporation where it should be. So, don’t bother.”Jack still couldn’t believe that he was here talking to Carolin
“Promise me that you won’t send me away “Jack asked as he caressed her face. Looking in to his eyes, she saw a powerless man and she didn’t want to argue with him anymore.“Deal…just don’t hug me so tight. You are suffocating me. “Caroline muttered softly.“Okay, I will let go “Jack whispered before proceeding to sit on the chair.Caroline joined him. She had no any other alternative but to hear him out. This man might have turned in to the biggest villain in her life but he helped her a lot when she first arrived in the city. At least she owed him that much.“Can you tell me what the hell is up with you. God…...I can’t even believe that I am here talking to you after everything that you have done to me. “Caroline was still startled. Everything happened so fast.“I came here to apologize. I know my words can never bring back the wrongs that I have done to you but I have accepted defeat from you. Please find it in your heart to forgive me. I just need some peace and that peace is yo
It would definitely be a disaster if Grand ma Grace were to hand over her beloved company to that woman. But how the hell was she going to explain to her that she was about to make a mistake?“Gosh …her head was hurting so much that it felt like something was cracking it open. She decided to leave things the way that they were for the time being.Her mind was brought back to reality when she heard grand ma Grace’s voice.” You don’t need to worry about me. You have too much on your plate and I am even ashamed that I am bothering you with family issues. Just do what you do best to regain your father’s lost company. I have faith in you. Now take care of yourself, okay ““Bye…. grand ma. “she said as he kissed her cheeks. Just like she came, she entered inside her car and left in a jiffy. Caroline felt lonely again. The person who had warmed her heart had left again. Looking at Sophia, Paula and Jessica, she couldn’t help but feel that her mood has dampened.“You just wait, bitch. We w
Caroline swallowed her bitter saliva. Being rejected was the order of her life. She had since become used to it but now it hurts so badly knowing that her very own mother was rejecting her before she even knew that she was her child. But it was okay. She was going to love watching the drama unfold as always.“I am so happy for you, grand ma. I will also love to meet my other cousin. “Caroline said as she brushed grand ma Grace’s hair. “What did you say earlier? I think that I didn’t hear you well. Did you just say that you were Sophia’s daughter? Darling why would you say something like that? “Grand ma. Grace remembered to ask.Caroline smiled. She didn’t need to make the situation more complicated.“Did I just say that? I don’t remember. Maybe I was only joking. Just forget about it and wait for your grandchild, okay. I have never seen you so happy in my life like today and I am not going to be the one to spoil everything. I care about you too much. “Caroline muttered feigning happ
“Little niece, you know that I love you. I just don’t know how to show it because you were always a thorn in my flesh. Let us just get this behind us. I know that you have been yearning for a mother’s love. If you forgive us, I promise that I will be the best mother that you have always wanted, okay. I am not that bad. I raised Paula “Sophia said while fuming inside.She couldn’t believe what the bitch made her say. If she only knew that she was my mother. what a foolish woman? Always wasting her time with nonsense instead of trying to find out where her child was” Caroline thought disgustedly.“Okay, I forgive you. congratulations, I will talk with my lawyer to get you out of jail only because my grandmother wanted it but not because you two knelt Infront of me. “Caroline said and the two stood up. “Grand ma, are we going home now? Oh…..I can’t wait to go to my spa , do my nails and hair .”Paula stated excitedly.“Not so fast. Caroline, hold on that call for a while. Sophia has a v
“I love my girls the same. It is just that you don’t know how to recognize it and see th goodness in a person. “Grand ma. Grace replied .Finally, Paula pulled out of Grand ma Grace’s embrace.At once her eyes landed on Sophia. When she finally thought that Sophia was going to learn her lesson and start to behave like a normal person then she goes and do something abnormal.“Hello Mum” she greeted. Her body was full of tattoos. For a moment, she failed to recognize her. Her ears and nose were pierced all over. Her exposed skin was full of marks. Just one look at Sophia and she wanted to slap away the stupidity in her head. “Who are you?” She asked looking at her up and down.“Mother, what is wrong with you? How dare you ask me such a question? Of .... course it is me. This is just a disguise to make people stop bullying me after Caroline condemn us in this God forsaken place. You are acting as if you have never seen a person with tattoos “she said with a grin on her face.“Grand ma,
Caroline seemed surprised. However, she was curious to know how her grandmother acquired another grandchild.“Grand ma, do you have other children apart from Jane and Sophia? “She asked“No …...dear. I only have those two. Sophia has been a pain in my ass and I couldn’t handle another child. Well…...your mother had her flaws but she was the best thing that has ever happened to me. “She said leaving Caroline even more confused.“So, if you have only two children then who among them has given you another grandchild? I know it can only be Sophia because she is the only one alive and I wonder if that is even possible with her being in jail” Caroline thought loudly.“Silly girl…. of course, it can only be Sophia. That woman is trouble all the way down and I can’t believe that Paula took after her. Do you know that Sophia gave birth to a baby girl and gave her to her father? My God, that idiot didn’t even see it fit to tell me about by grandchild. I think that one of these days I am going
It brought her so much sorrow to read her mother ‘s words in her very own handwriting. If only she was alive, she would have shown her just how much she loved her. Whether she was not her biological mother didn’t matter to her.“I will just read one more page and then I will leave the rest.” She muttered softly.“Just one more thing. My real child is Jack Baron and I have loved him from a distance ever since he came out of me. I just couldn’t show it openly. I was forbidden. I had no control over what happens to him, sweetie. I only ask for one thing, protect him from harm because he has never had anyone. when I am gone, you and your father are the only people who can have his back.”“Thank you for loving me, mommy. I know it was hard watching your own baby being raised by another. I owe you one “Caroline mumbled softly and hen continued to read.“I know I couldn’t love him because in my world you were my child and I did everything to give you the best but he was suffering and I wa
