“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
She has told him so many times already that she didn’t want anything to do with him but he wouldn’t let her be alone. Her blood boiled the moment that she mentioned going back to the city that never recognized her as a human being. How could she not react?“I am sorry, but I am never coming back to you. Go to hell” She yelled coldly and walked past his body lying down on the floor. Blood was coming from the back of his head where she had hit.As soon as she excited the washroom, she wondered how heartless she had become. She never would have thought that she would have the courage to hurt him like that then walk away as if nothing has happened.Wesley has turned her in to a beast like him.But it was for the best.She straightened her hair and wiped her mouth disgustedly.On her way, she met with Jack who looked at her face suspiciously “Are you Alright? You look like you are running away from something. what happened in the washroom?” the man was like a mind reader.The questions wer
“Oh…. Sweetie, I didn’t want to tell you but your daddy’s phone wasn’t going through. Perhaps, it was the network problem. Remember that we are in a different city and things like this happens often. I promise that I will find him soon so that you can tell him all the things that you want to. Will you love that?” It was only at that moment that Angel smiled.All that she needed was a little hope nothing else.Caroline knew that she was lying but what choices did she have. It has always been Wesley’s faults.“There sweetie …let us play the video game together “she said as they both settled well on the chair.“ I think that I can represent her father in this game .Would you allow me to play with you ,princess ?“ Jack talked for the very first time .That was when Angel looked at Jack. She smiled shyly and nodded her head slowly “Will it be okay if I play with uncle” she didn’t forget to ask for permission from Caroline.“You can call me uncle Jack and I will call you princess. Will t
Jack wiped her tears gently “Tell me what happened and I will make it go away.” His deep voice was soft and soothing.No matter how much, she wanted to hide this from him, she couldn’t.Oh….it has been long since someone cared about her feelings. She couldn’t help but be touched.“I think that I might have just killed my ex-husband “she said coldly.Meanwhile, a certain man woke up in the hospital with an excruciating pain in his head. He couldn’t recall what happened. All that he knew was that he fell down and lost consciousness. He slowly opened his eyes and looked at the person besides him.He kind of hoped that Caroline was the one sitting by his side but apparently, she didn’t care. How could she after all that he did to her.She had spent several nights alone in the hospital while he stayed back and worked as an excuse not to take care of her.“Thank God that you are awake, darling “Paula was holding his hands with red eyes. She seemed like she had been crying.” It was that w
Caroline woke up feeling out of place. The house wasn’t hers, it wasn’t even decorated according to her taste and preferences. She hated the color yellow. Everywhere that she turned, the ugly theme was staring back at her.This house screamed of everything about Paula. Anyway, it didn’t matter, the end results was what was important. She needed the house for a short while and then later on she could leave it behind. Besides her, Angel was coiled in a deep sleep. She caressed her cheeks and then climbed out of the bed. The moment that she reached the living room, a mouthwatering aroma of food caught her nose and she couldn’t help but follow the scent. Her stomach growled loudly, It has been a while since she had a proper meal. When she reached the kitchen, Wesley was there consumed in his cooking. She had never seen him doing something that nice before. He was always cold and unapproachable. He was very grumpy and he never even knew what was in her kitchen.Oh…. people really do c
“Well…focus on your life now. I will search around and see who is trying to frame you, okay. I know some of my contacts who can help me with this matter. Cheer up, son. “Agnes said as she hugged his head just like she had done when he was little “I love you so much and I can never do something that will intentionally hurt you ““I know, mother. Please forgive me. You have always been there for me and I have no right to mistrust you. I guess seeing Caroline leaving with Wesley got in to my head. But why can’t things return to the way that they used to be? we used to live a simple life. No secrets, betrayals, revenge or anything similar. I miss those old good days.”“You will work hard to forget her. Please promise me. She will never be good for you. You have lived a very sad life and you deserve someone who will love you for who you are. You need someone who will compensate for all those years that you were alone. “Agnes stated.Jack only stared at her and then kissed the back of her h
Jack started thinking seriously about the conversation that she just had with Caroline. There was someone trying to twist the situation and make him look like he was the murderer. Was there someone who hated the Morgan family?His eyes turned dark immediately as he asked coldly “Who could be behind Dismas’s death?”A thought came in to his head. Hurriedly, he took his coat and went outside only to see Caroline getting away in Wesley’s car. How conveniently for her? She couldn’t even wait for the dust to settle on their divorce before running back to Wesley .However, now he had an important issue to talk about with his mother. She was the one who convinced him that he should take his revenge on Dismas. Was she the one responsible for that man’s death? What he knew was that Agnes hated Dismas with passion.“Hello Son. You remembered me?” Agnes greeted as soon as Jack made his way into her house.” she hadn’t seen him for quite some time and she was eager for him to tell her what has
“Uncle Jack…you promised me that you won’t hurt my Mommy. I regret ever calling you my second dad. Don’t ever come near me or my Mommy again. You don’t deserve her. “Angel said as she held on to her mother’s hands tight.“Angel, sweetie. I have nothing against you. I swear that I have always loved you and I would have loved for us to get to know each other more. Please, don’t look at me like that. If you don’t believe me, you can still stay back with me. I will spoil you so much” Jack honestly liked Angel“I will never leave my mommy’s side. she is the only one who has ever loved me not you. If you did love me then you wouldn’t have done what you did. The moment that you hurt my mommy, you did the same to me. Good bye, my mother and I will just be fine. See you never. “Angel stated and then turned to her mother “let us go, I don’t want to stay in this house anymore. I don’t like this man, he is mean. ““Goodbye, Jack” Caroline said one last time.As Caroline hurried outside the door,
“But you said that you will wait for me and I was going to keep my word, Jack. A person cannot control how her heart feels or who her heart wants but I was willing to change that because I wanted a stable life for my child. It is a shame that you didn’t believe in me and took me as your enemy when I knew nothing of what my father did to you. ““My God …you could have approached me and we would have worked out this together, Jack. What went wrong?”“Don’t you dare pretend with me. Everything went wrong the moment you appeared back in to my life. I am tired of giving love that will never be reciprocated.” he snapped.“I loved you in my own way but what hurts me the most is that you have brought an innocent child in to this mess. Jack, I trusted you with her. why did you do this to me?”“I really love the kid and she honestly have nothing to do with this but I couldn’t accept that I didn’t have you by myside. Caroline, we have been married for a couple of months now and you haven’t tri
Wesley has been with her the whole night. Not even her very own husband cared to come and ask about her health. She wanted to snap at him but she just couldn’t forget that he came through for her over and over again.Even if he doesn’t want to admit it, she knows that he was the one who saved her on the day that she was about to be killed in the forest. she can never forget his familiar scent and voice“It is nice for you to support me but this is my problem. If you don’t mind, I would like to handle it on my own. You have already wasted enough of your time taking care of me when you really didn’t have to” she said as Monica helped her pack her bagsIt was just enough for him that she was no longer looking at him with hate.“Alright …I will leave you to it then but remember that if you have any problem, call me. I will just be a phone call away “he kissed her cheeks and then hurriedly left the hospital.A while later, she had been discharged and she headed straight away to the mansi
Caroline’s face became pale “were you spying on me? Just when I thought that you are beginning to seem like a reasonable person, you go and do this to me? You two have disappointed me. I would have appreciated it if you would have just told me the truth.”“I did it in good faith because I never trusted Jack from the day your father was killed. He has been behaving oddly for a person whose wife has faced two major tragedies. If I were in his place, I would have taken a bullet for you but instead he ran away leaving you alone. Don’t you think that is odd?” Wesley asked.“And I think that the two-shooting incidence are related. I have been investigating it secretly and the ballistic report show that the same type of guns was used. So, it must be the same person responsible for the two shooting. May be, he or she hired he same people. “Zoe explained.“I am sorry to say this but why would someone assassinate your father and then immediately Jack schemes to takes his company? I might not h
“Damn fucking idiot “Monica cursed loudly and left the hospital premises. “Wesley, we are not done here. I am coming back to deal with you. You better not try anything stupid on my friend. “She added powerlessly.Now that he was with Caroline, he started to relax a bit. He had instructed Luke to cancel all his appointments because he planned to take care of Caroline the whole of the night. Caroline was more precious to him than any other meetings or business deals.He caressed her face and kissed her slightly on the cheeks “As long as l am here, no one is ever going to hurt you again. But why are you so unlucky? why are all of us who are associated with you keeps on betraying you? “He asked holding her hands.Finally, he removed his coat and laid beside Caroline. He lifted her body and held her on his chest. Wesley didn’t care whether they were in the hospital or whether the doctor might come in any time and scold him.All that he wanted was for Caroline to feel his support even when
“I am sorry to say but we are in a professional relationship. I have never considered him to be anything more because I know that he is a married man. “Heather replied.“I beg to differ but I find that hard to believe given the way you are holding on to his arms. Even a blind man can see that you two are sleeping together. Jack, how does it feel to betray your wife with her lookalike? “Isabel wouldn’t stop until she put those two in their places.“I am sorry but this interview should be about business because this is a celebration ceremony for the company. Making baseless accusations to destroy the company image seem to me like you have been sent by our competitor. “Heather answered with a smile on her face. Isabel turned the mic on Heather’s face and then stated “Dear viewers, I know that you are eager to hear something from the woman herself. Miss Heather, can you confirm that you are the mistress?”“Of course not. I am a highly respectable woman and I know my boundaries. Jack is
