Thorns of the Heart Chapter 149
Madison’s POVI wondered who the caller was because it was from an unknown number. I stared at the fall without doing anything and Caramel noticed it and looked at me with a worried look on her face.“What’s wrong? Don’t you want to pick the call?” she asked me and I shook my head.“I am scared of answering it. What if it’s some blogger or someone that’s waiting for the latest new to upload an an article?” I asked her and she smiled then came to my side.“You don’t have to worry about that because you didn’t so anything. You should always have that in your mind. Whatever happened didn’t occur because of you. If you keep having a soft heart then they will keep stomping on it. If they call and curse you out then you have every right to scream back at them.” She said to me with hope in her eyes and we both looks at the number ring till the call went away.“That’s better now. I really don’t even want to talk to anyone that I don’t have their numbers saved in my phone.” I said to her and s

Madison’s POV“Who is this and why are you calling me?” I tried acting oblivious to his voice and he chuckled deeply. “You know who this is. You just called my name too. What’s all this drama for?” He asked me and I cleared my throat.“I know who you are but how did you even get my contact? Why the call?” I asked him and he sighed“Like I said to the other woman earlier. I just want to speak to you.” He said and Caramel gasped.“Does my voice sound so old that he is referring me as that woman?” She asked me in an offended voice and I closed my eyes.“Don’t mind what he said. He always thinks before talking.” I said loudly so that he could hear it but he only chuckled.“What happens between us was long ago. Don’t tell me that you are still bitter about it?” He asked me with his voice full of amusement.“Is this what you called me for? I was busy before I picked your call.”“We both know that’s a big lie. Your company is slipping gradually from your hand to your uncle’s hand and instead

Madison’s POVI walked up to him with a tight look on my face as he continued smiling sheepishly to my greatest surprise.“What is all this about? Why did you call me out of my house and why are you even here in the first place?” I asked him all the question and he held out his hand on the air for me to stop and I stopped.“Take a deep breath, Maddy. Just like I said earlier, I just want to talk to you. Is that a bad thing to do now?” he asked me and I sighed then rose my figers on the air and showed him my rung.“And just like I told you before. Look at my fingers. I am married okay? You need to stop this ridiculous act and get our if here. We aren’t friends that need to check up on each other so spare me all this bullshit and leave already.” I told him and his family laughed.“You are really not the same Maddison that I knew before. You are more fessty. I love that.” He said then bit his lips.“What do you really want?” I asked him and he walks closer to me. I stepped backward and b

Madison’s POVThe look on my face was anything. “What are you doing here?” I asked Tyler because that was so fast. Even though Aquila told him to hurry down, it should have taken him some more time.He held my hand and yanked me out of that car. I stumbled and he held my waist tightly. Phil came down from the other side with a frown as he watched us.“What’s the meaning of this? Couldn’t you see that I was about to talk to her?” he asked Tyler with his voice full of rage.“Talk to her? Who are you and who do you think you are to lift your hand and touch her?” Tyler shouted and I gasped. I have never seen him this pissed before.“You are so possessive. Maybe that’s why she called her ex to come and satisfy her. Nobody wants a possessive husband.” He said intentionally to piss Tyler off and I saw the throbbing vein on Tyler’s neck.I held his hand to calm him down and he finally looked at me. “Leave now and never come back.” He told Phil while ignoring what Phil said.“I am fucking seri

Rose’s POVAfter taking care of some files from Madison’s table, I was finally done for the day so I left the company and was about to go to the bus station.My phone rang and I was walking fast to the bus station because I knew that it would soon be time for that bus to go. It was already 8:00pm and I was really tired. I also didn't want to order for an uber today.I picked it and placed it on my ear without looking at the caller ID. “Who is it? Can you call back later? I am in a kind of a hurry to go somewhere.” I said immediately but got only silence after that.“Can you at least talk so that I know that I am speaking to a human being? You called and you are being so dumb right now.” I said and that other end laughed. For some reason, the laugh sounded very familiar though.“Andy?” I asked and he stopped laughing.“You finally now know who you are talking to. Why didn't you just look at the caller ID?” he asked me and I rolled my eyes.“Why are you calling me?” I asked him bluntly
Thorns of the Heart Chapter 154
Rose’s POVI stood up in shock while he continued coming towards me. “What are you doing here Andy?” I asked him still with a shocked look on my face. The guy that was sitting down had a smirk on his face.“I came to pick you up. You said that it might snow soon so I just thought of coming here because I was already around the area.” he said and I looked at him with a suspicious look.“You were around the area.” I dragged on and he looked away.“Okay fine. I got your IP address from Madison and I knew that you were here the whole time. I was just watching you while we spoke.” he said and I gasped.“You stalker! You are stalking me” I shouted with a serious look on my face and all the color from his face drained.“I am not stalking you. Trust me. I am not a stalker Rose and you know that. I just got off work and I knew that you would still be busy so I wanted to pick you up but you were already walking to the bus station so I just decided to follow you.” he explained with beads of swea

Mrs. Vivian’s POVWhile watching my favorite show, I passed the news and saw someone familiar. “Isn’t that Tyler?” I asked myself and took that channel to the news.I saw the news about how Madison’s uncle is now the acting CEO of her family’s insurance company. “She wasn't just meant for it. It's as simple as that.” I said while watching it.“You can’t say that. You don’t know how long she has worked for it.” Drake told me as he walked into the living room.“Did you see this earlier? It’s obvious that the uncle can do a better job than her that’s why.” I said while shrugging my shoulders and he shook his head with a disappointed look on his face.“I know you dislike her but then you can’t be happy because she lost something. It’s not that way and she is your son’s wife for Pete’s sake! You shouldn’t be acting like this Vivian!” He raised his voice at me and I stared at him with an opened mouth.“Why are you shouting at me? Just because of that girl?” I asked him and he rolled his eye
Thorns of the Heart Chapter 156
Madison’s POVAfter making sure that the press left and that I was alright we started heading back home but then a car made a quick turn to our front and he hit the brakes. Yes, he drove by himself.“Who the fuck is that? Does he have a death wish?” Tyler asked himself then turned to me in worry.“Are you okay? You didn't hit anywhere did you?” he asked me and I nodded. I was just surprised by the sudden break, that's all.The person in the car in front of us didn't make an attempt to come down after almost making us have an accident so Tyler was about to come down but I stopped him when I noticed who the person was in that car.“Don't go down. It's Leonardo. I am sure he has something up his sleeves this time around again.” I told him and he raised his eyebrows.“Then should we be scared of him then? He thinks he has won and we hiding and trying not to step on his toes will make him think that we have really given up.” Tyler told me and I sighed and I wiped the tears that were threat

Tyler’s POVI was feeling a mix of joy and nervousness as I stood in front of the altar. Finally, the day Madison and I would be married was here. It was the moment I had been waiting for. I knew how important this event was, and my heart was racing with happiness as I waited for my bride.As I walked around in a classy and charming black suit, I couldn’t help but notice the little things that made my outfit special. The suit fit my body perfectly and hugged me in all the right places. The jacket had a slim fit that drew attention to my broad shoulders, and the pants were expertly made to make me look sharp and stylish.The fabric was a high-end mix of fine wool and silk. It had a light sheen that made the outfit look a little more glamorous. The suit’s black color was classic and timeless, which matched both my great taste and the seriousness of the event. A thin satin trim around the lapels added a modest but elegant touch that made the whole look better.A crisp white dress shirt t

Madison’s POVThree months laterAs Tyler and I entered the sleek, modern office building, a wave of anticipation and nervousness filled the air. The hallway seemed to stretch forever as we approached the glass doors leading to the boardroom. I could feel Tyler’s steady presence beside me, providing a reassuring anchor amid the storm of feelings brewing inside me.The moment we stepped into the meeting, all eyes turned towards us. The muted hum of talks stopped, replaced by the palpable tension that gripped the room. I kept a composed exterior, channeling the confidence Tyler had instilled in me throughout this ordeal.Leonard Byers, sitting at the head of the table, looked up from his papers, his expression shifting from indifference to shock as he registered my presence. The board members, accustomed to his authoritative demeanor, reflected his astonishment. Tyler and I moved confidently to an open space, ready to face the truth.“Miss Johnson,” Leonard stammered, trying to regain h

Madison’s POV“What’s going on in here?” my mom asked, my eyes narrowing as I took in the emotional environment.I quickly wiped away my tears, trying to calm myself. “Mom, we’re just talking,” I said.Tyler nodded in agreement, his eyes never leaving mine. “We’re having a heart-to-heart. I wanted to be honest with Madison about everything.”My mom’s eyes narrowed further, her worry escalating into frustration. “Honest conversation? Tyler, after everything that happened in the past, you think you can just waltz back into my daughter’s life and have a ‘heart-to-heart’? What gives you that right?”Tyler sighed, understanding the gravity of the situation. “Mrs. Anderson, I know I messed up in the past. I hurt Madison, and I take full blame for that. But people can change, and I want to make amends. I love your daughter, and I want to be there for her.”My mom crossed her arms, her anger obvious. “Change? Love? Tyler, you had your chance, and you blew it. You can’t just expect to walk bac

Tyler’s POVI reassured myself, “Headaches are not unusual after a head injury. We’ll monitor her closely and adjust the treatment as required. The goal is to make her as comfortable as possible during the healing process.”Once Madison’s pain medication was administered, she started to relax, with the sharp pain gradually subsiding. Doctor Bennet turned to Madison’s mother with a serious look.“Mrs. Byers, I would like to discuss some important issues with you. Can you please join me in my office? We can talk more freely there,” Doctor Bennet offered.Madison’s mother looked concerned but nodded. “Of course, doctor. I’ll be right there. Madison, I’ll be back soon. Try to get some rest, sweetheart,” she said, gently kissing her daughter’s face.As Mrs. Byers stepped out of the room with Doctor Bennet, I looked at them with interest. Doctor Bennet gave me a wink, signaling that he wanted to give me the chance to talk to Madison without any interruptions by her mom.I felt a mix of feel

Madison’s POVI could feel Madison's heavy gaze on me. Her eyes were looking for answers I didn't want to give. As I took a deep breath, I felt the inner conflict of wanting to be honest while also keeping her from any possible pain."Madison," I said first, carefully choosing my words, "I need to do something." I want to get the doctor to explain everything to you. I'll be back right away, all right?" I smiled at them to make them feel better, thinking that would help.Her face furrowed even more, and her eyes showed that she was suspicious. "Tyler, why do you look so scared? What do you not want to tell me?" My voice wavered with a mix of frustration and worry.I paused, my eyes locking onto hers. "It's not about being scared, Madison. I just believe it's best if the doctor explains the problem to you. They have all the knowledge, and I want you to hear it from a professional."She tried to sit up again, and there was a sense of urgency in her moves. "Tyler, you can't just leave me

Thorns of the Heart Chapter 194
Madison’s POVI lay on the narrow hospital bed, my eyes half-closed, trying to make sense of the fuzzy shapes around me. The sterile scent of the hospital room filled my nose, and the rhythmic beeping of machines provided a disconcerting soundtrack to my hazy thoughts. The pain on my side felt like a sharp jab, a constant reminder of something I couldn't quite grasp.I heard my mom's voice in the distance, a comforting murmur that reassured me, "You'll be fine, Madison. The doctors are taking care of you." It was a distant echo, like a lifeline connecting me to the world outside my foggy cocoon. I tried to focus on the words, to find solace in them, but the pain and dizziness were relentless.A nurse came in, her friendly face obscured by a mask, and checked the machines that surrounded me. "How are you feeling, sweetie?" the nurse asked, her voice a gentle melody. I managed a weak smile, attempting to convey that I was okay even though I wasn't entirely sure.The nurse adjusted some

Tyler’s POV"But what of her mum? How will I convince her I mean her daughter no harm?" I asked, my worry etched across my face. Dr. Bennett leaned back in his chair, considering the question. "Building trust with Madison's mother will also take time. It's crucial to be patient and show through your actions that your intentions are sincere. Avoid confrontations, be respectful, and give her the space she might need to process everything."I sighed, a mix of frustration and understanding. "I just don't want to be seen as the bad guy here. I genuinely care about Maddison, and I want her to have all the support she needs."Dr. Bennett nodded in agreement. "It's evident, Tyler. Just be yourself and focus on being a positive presence. Actions often speak louder than words, and with time, her mother may come to see your genuine concern for Maddison's well-being."Feeling a bit more assured, I nodded. "Thanks, Dr. Bennett. Your advice means a lot. I'll do my best to be patient and understandi

Tyler’s POVAs I approached Room 203, I took another deep breath, steeling myself for the upcoming conversation. I raised my hand, and with a tentative knock, I announced my presence.“Come in,” a voice called from within the room.I pushed the door open and entered, finding a comfortable-looking office with a desk cluttered with papers. Dr. Bennett, with his graying hair, looked up from his work, offering me a reassuring smile.“Tyler, finally you are here. Please, have a seat,” he gestured towards the chair across from his desk.I hesitated for a moment, feeling a mix of nervousness and relief as he took the offered seat. The chair creaked slightly under his weight as he settled in, glancing around the room at the diplomas and medical charts adorning the walls.“Thanks, Dr. Bennett,” I mumbled, shifting uncomfortably in his seat. “Sorry I’m late. Got a bit turned around in this place. It’s like a maze.”Dr. Bennett chuckled warmly, “No worries, Tyler. Hospitals can be confusing. I’m
