After she heard the door being closed, Caroline was sure that it was just the two of them left. She turned her face around and met with the surprised eyes of Wesley. He looked like he had seen a ghost for real.“Mr. Storm, you seem to always follow me around. How can I help you” She asked coldly as she played with her pen between her fingers?Wesley rubbed his eyes and looked at her intensely “Caro…..I don’t understand . Wh….what are you doing here ?” his voice trembled as he tried to make sense of th situation.“Are you blind? Please look at the tag name on the table. I am the one who owns this company that you are so bent on acquiring. Does everything that has got to do with me attract you that much? “His eyes stared at Caroline’s name written boldly on the desk. She was the director and founder of the company. While, he thought that his wife was a naive little fool, she had built a company that he had been eyeing for years.“How did you do this?” he whispered.“It is my little
He was filled with rage and yet when he held her, he couldn’t help but soften. How could he explain to her that this was simply business and that whatever happened between them had nothing to do with his desire to acquire the company?“Caroline, stop all this nonsense. I am tired “he whispered in her ears before she pulled her hands back.“Rule number one, don’t hold me again” she said as she pushed him back roughly. Then something occurred in her mind. She had been meaning to ask him about this from the moment he showed up in her house but things happened fast and she forgot all about it.“Why are you stalking me?” Caroline asked.“Because you are the love of my life. ” Wesley answered with tears in his eyes.“The word love means nothing to me. It is for fools” she snarled and walked away.Wesley had no choice but to walk out of her office looking distraught. He has failed to get the acquisition and as things looked, Caroline has no intention of ever giving her company to him.He w
It has been hell for a whole decade not knowing what happened to her after her mother’s death. Now that she is back, he was going to be the best man in her life.“Yeah …. they are going to put up some resistance but I believe in you. I know that you can handle them. Besides, I will be right here if you need me “Jack looked adorable as he touched her cheeks softly. Caroline blushed.Who wouldn’t when the most gorgeous green eyes were looking at them?May be, just may be if Wesley would have been half a man like him, she wouldn’t have lived such a lonely and sad life.“Thank you for understanding. “ At least he gave her a glimpse of what to expect. She wasn’t going to walk in to a den of lions without proper preparations.“Let me treat you to a dinner afterwards. I will accept that as your gratitude “He said cheerfully with a little bit of flirtatious smile. Even though, she didn’t want to socialize at the moment, she couldn’t refuse him. It was only a harmless dinner. No commitments
“I think that it is clear to me now, what we need to do is vote democratically who is going to manage this company. The constitution states that even if the heir is available, we still have the obligation to vote for the right CEO with satisfactory qualifications. I doubt if she could ever match up to Larry.”“Agreed, I think that we should vote “Hosea, the design manager added while nodding his head.Caroline just sat staring at them mysteriously and dangerously. She didn’t know that her father had a bunch of idiots as the directors. Who did they think that they were?“Okay…you guys want to dismiss her just because she is young. Branding her as a divorcee and a single mother. Don’t you think that is nepotism? Larry you are a serial cheater and most recently you were beaten by one of your lovers.” Barry, the new business development directors wasn’t a man who liked trouble. He saw Caroline as his daughter who needed to be mentored and protected“You imbecile. I will fire you right no
He knew that Caroline banned him from coming to her rescue but what he saw on the little camera that he set up on the boardroom was depressing. without thinking any further, he had stormed out of her office and came to the boardroom.Sam knew that the man was a devil who he couldn’t afford to joke with.“Mr. Baron, I was only raising my hands.” His voice trembled.“Doesn’t look like what I saw. “He glanced at his assistant and ordered “Miguel, kindly ship this idiot out of the country. Take him to the worst country ever. If he comes back, chop off his legs “he said coldly as the other men shivered.“Please forgive me, Mr. Baron” he literally cried like a little boy yet there was zero nothing that he could do to change the man’s decision.Jack turned to Caroline whose face was expressionless. “Are you okay.”Caroline smiled and took him aside “I would have handle him but thanks. Can you wait for me outside? I think that the meeting is about to end “she said calmly.“I have something to
“She is just going through a crisis now but I promise that she is a very bright and bubbly girl. All that she needs is patience so that she could get used to the new environment. “Caroline stated. she wasn’t going to tell the teacher about her divorce. It wasn’t her business.“Well….in that case, I hope that she gets well soon” the teacher said as Caroline walked to her daughter“Sweetheart, why do you look so sad? don’t you like your new stool?” I love your teacher, do you love her too?” she asked while she brushed her blond hair softly.The girl glanced into her eyes with an empty look.“Mommy, would you take me to my daddy? I need to see him. I miss him so much. There is so much that I want to tell him” Angel’s innocent and sad voice made her shed a tear. Her baby girl shouldn’t be going through all this.As the teacher looked at their interaction, Caroline guessed that she had figured out what was going on but she couldn’t dwell on that. Angel needed her moreCaroline hands cradl
The three of them soon arrived at the Morgan’s mansion. The good thing was that her father had called earlier and told her that he would be spending sometimes at a friend’s house. So, for the time being Wesley could come in to her house only for the sake of the Angel, nothing else.He carried Angel from his car and Caroline followed them in to the house.Luke parked Caroline ‘s car as he was the one tasked to drive it back to the mansion.Even the maid had noticed the change in Angel as soon as she entered in to the house with Wesley. They ate and played together until Angel was tired. She fell asleep in his arms and that was when Wesley took her to her bedroom to sleep.He kissed her cheeks and stayed looking at her adorable face. There were so many things that he regretted in this life, letting Caroline and Angel go was the most important one. Until now, he didn’t realize how much she needed his precious girls in his life.When he got back to the living room, Caroline was sipping a
It was so intense that she blushed yet the man continued to stare at her from head to toe without saying anything.Well…. he didn’t need to. The lustful look was all written on his face.“You are undressing me with your eyes. Hey …come on that is not proper “her face was red hot as she scolded him on a light note.He grabbed her hands and spined her round while enjoying the beautiful view. At that moment, she let go of her stress. All that she needed was a man who took note of little things in her life. she really felt beautiful and loved. For the moment, she didn’t care what will happen in the future but what mattered was that she can manage to be happy.“I can’t help it that you are breathtakingly beautiful. You look good in that dress “Jack whispered as he bent hie head down to kiss her cheeks. Then he snaked his hands around her waist and ordered with a sexy voice “let us go, beautiful”They walked out and entered in his car before driving off.Somewhere in the streets, a certain
Again, it was none of his business. He will enjoy the show and watch him discover everything like an idiot.“Fine…...Fine…...Fine …. Believe what you want to. Anyway, now that you two are safe and sound, I will take my leave. I have decided that today, I am not doing an overtime. “Luke said with sadness that he has never taken him seriously.Wesley’s face darkened as he said with sternness” Did I say that you can leave? you are going nowhere. we have a guest room in the apartment. I need you to sleep here so that tomorrow early in the morning we can leave for the West city. Understood? “ The man shook his head as he reminded him “Didn’t you say that I should disappear from your face? Do I not disgust you anymore?”Okay, he has been restraining himself because of Caroline so far and he wasn’t sure if he will keep up with Luke’s behavior. He was starting to piss him off.“Just don’t show up in the morning if you want. Keep in mind what happened to you when you refused to go with me to
Wesley touched her cheeks gently looking curious. “And what is that?”“It is a top secret and if I tell you, it won’t be anymore. It is something that I can do at home and relax at the same time. I promise that when the right time comes, I will tell you about it “Caroline wasn’t ready to tell him about her other identity. “Oh……That reminds me, when you left our home the day that we divorced. I found some document that belonged to the Polisher. Do you have anything to do with her? I have been looking for her for so long?” Wesley suddenly said and Caroline looked at him sharply.Of course, she knew …... How ironical? He was looking for someone whom he has slept by her side for years. How stupid could he get?Seeing that she was looking at him strangely, Wesley asked “By any chance, Are you the Polisher and you have been hiding it from me? why else can you have her documents when top people in the world are looking for her? My God, you are the one that Jacob was referring to?”Wesley
Wesley lifted his hands in surrender. he didn’t want Luke to bail on him now.“Okay …. Okay …. I am sorry. I will give you your full salary plus a bonus. Forget about what I said earlier, I was just kidding. Please don’t be mad at me. Do you really want me to beg you?” Wesley asked feeling dark inside.Those words weren’t easy for him to say. He had to really collect himself.“Haven’t I been begging you? what is wrong with you doing the same to me?” Luke insisted on pissing him off even more. The worst thing was that he was chewing his gum disgustedly. Oh…. where did he get this mad man? He couldn’t take it as he yelled. “Drop me off and disappear from my face. I want to strangle you right now “he didn’t know that Caroline had long woken up and had heard everything that they were discussing without meaning to. She felt so guilty for always judging Wesley without knowing what he was going through. In the end of the day, they were facing the same problems.They were trying to sa
Holding her closer to his body, he whispered. “I knew that you will come to your senses. I am just glad that you didn’t do it because of me. I would have felt so guilty “Caroline pushed him away from her body “isn’t it obvious that it was your handiwork to block my plans? You fucking threatened the doctors.” She basically yelled at him and yet Wesley stood there just looking at her. He must be patient with her. She was going through a lot. He must not be a pain in her ass like before.“I had to do what I had to save what is mine. Now don’t be stubborn. I will take you home and you can have a good rest. You have been stressing yourself all day long and it is not good for the baby. “He didn’t even know where those word came from. He was really starting to embrace the role of being a good husband and a father .Caroline didn’t even realize it but it was already getting dark. sub consciously, she started feeling exhaustion wash over her. She didn’t have the energy to argue with hi
It seemed that everyone didn’t like her decision but at the end of the day it will be her problem alone.“Yeah…plus, I am sure that Angel will be happy to hear that she is having a sibling. what is so wrong about this? “Isabel added with understanding “Look at me, I am almost your age and I don’t have kids. You don’t know how much I envy you. If this kid was mine, I will protect it with all my life.”“Me too. I love for me a little cute girl or a boy that I can call my own but as the saying goes. what someone desires is another person’s worst nightmare. so, think about it. Besides, I don’t think that Wesley will just sit down and let you terminate his baby. “Monica added with regret.“I am so sorry girlfriends but it has been decided. There is nothing that the two of you can say to make me change my mind. All that I need you for is to escort me to the doctor. I just want to get it over with once and for all. “Caroline said decisively.Even though her heart was beating hard, she couldn
The moment that she was left alone, an ugly frown appeared on her face. She couldn’t believe that Wesley was making her do this.But she didn’t allow herself to have a second thought. It wasn’t going to lead her anywhere.“Damn you, Wesley. Let us see what you will do “she muttered as she caressed the uniform that she had just been given.After wondering around for a few hours doing nothing, Wesley decided to go and look for Caroline. He bought lunch at one of the expensive restaurants nearby and carried it to her room hoping that by now she would have calm down.Caroline wasn’t someone who held grudges for long. He was so stupid in the past. Important moments passed him just like that. He didn’t get to enjoy spoiling Caroline when she was pregnant with Angel just because he was having the silly fantasy that he loved Paula. Now that he was given a second chance, he will not ruin it. He will not leave Caroline to deal with this alone. He knew that she was scared but he was willing to
“Oh…knock it off. It is my life, my body and my child. I can do whatever that I want. So, fuck off the both of you and leave me the hell alone. “Caroline was so pissed off.Seeing that there was nothing more that he could do, Jack decided to give the couple some space to chat or fight. “I will leave first “Wesley on the other hand, decided to act like a little spoiled brat.“I don’t care whether you get angry with me. I will stay. I am going nowhere. “Wesley said stubbornly thinking that his dominant nature will work as always but Caroline could not take it. Her hormones were acting crazy in her body.Caroline took the glass of water on her bedside table and poured it on his expensive suit “Get the fuck out before I do something stupid. Will you disappear like you always do?”Wesley was speechless, the animosity in her eyes was something that he has never seen in her for a while. At that moment, she resembled the time when he asked her for a divorce and Caroline wouldn’t forgive him
“I am ready, you idiot. Let us roll. Bring the ammunition. I want to kill someone “He added coldly as he made his way out of his office.He had been scratching his head on how he was going to convince Caroline to talk to him after he got angry and drove away from her home.Jack smiled ironically. At least, he knew that Wesley will come.He was not going to leave the hospital until he was sure that Caroline hadn’t made the worst mistake of her life. So, he decided to guard Caroline’s room to look out for any suspicious person who she might have called to help her with the procedure.A few minutes later, he went back in to the room. When Caroline saw him, she closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep. In that way, she could avoid talking to him because she didn’t feel like.“Caro, I know that you can hear me. Don’t worry, I won’t leave your side. The baby is going to be fine.” he said as he caressed her hands gently.“What kind of trouble is this? Doesn’t he have work to do? How the
“Are you kidding me? what could be good news when a person was lying down in a hospital bed?” Honestly, she didn’t like this at all. She has never been an optimistic person and she wasn’t going to do it now” Oh…. I get it now. My baby girl is coming to see me? is that it?”“Well…. you are pregnant. You are going to become a mother soon” he announced thinking that the news will make her happy. She had gone through some pretty tough things recently and he thought that a woman will be happy to find out that a new life was growing inside of herCaroline ‘s expression changed almost instantly. Quickly, she removed her hands from his as if something was burning her. “What the hell are you talking about? Baby? Who is expectant? ““Aren’t you happy that you will be a mother soon? Caroline, why are you looking pale like this? Are you not feeling well?” Jack asked getting confused with her reaction.How could she be this unlucky. She had nothing against the baby but just the thought of
