Nathalie’s P. O. V.I know that having a huge amount of wealth to be registered under your name is exciting for others. To be honest, being wealthy is the most important thing for everyone to achieve, at least, that’s what they believe.But if my father is doing this to let me know that he’s feeling sorry for everything he did to me before, no, I am not and will never accept it. In fact, his blood and name are already enough for me to be in pain whenever I would be reminded that I am his daughter. And if he thinks that time has already healed me, then he’s wrong. Because I was never healed.I rejected and refused to sign the papers for my inheritance. Attorney Brent tried hard to convince me to sign everything already so I can start working for my family’s company, but no, he doesn’t understand and will never do.I don’t want anything else from them. My grandfather might be a b*stard for having another woman when he was still alive, but I am thankful that my uncle accepted me like his
Nathalie’s P. O. V. I was naked under the comforter that Kyrie and I are sharing. I can feel him hugging me from my back with his left hand cupped in my chest. Kyrie’s already sleeping peacefully beside me as his right leg wrapped on mine. I tried to move and remove his hold on me, but I stopped when Kyrie groaned and tightened his hug on me. I turned around and saw him still sleeping, his hand unconsciously went to the back of my head as he pulled me closer in his arm. I smiled because of that, but out of nowhere, I suddenly remembered Attorney Brent’s email to me just this evening. He said that the boards are getting impatient now since they still haven’t heard anything from me. Attorney Brent is pushing me harder to sign the legal documents now because apparently, my grandmother’s cousin is having an interest in WGC and wanted to own everything herself, although she couldn’t succeed because everyone from the board is aware that my grandmother has me as her heiress. The stockho
Nathalie’s P. O. V.The excitement in me was gone as I unconsciously looked around me, thinking that Tyron might just be somewhere and hiding. I hold Kyrie’s hand and never let go of him for the whole ride.“Don’t worry, Love. The reporters are gone and they won’t touch you, okay?” Kyrie whispered beside me before he gave me a kiss on my temple. I was locked up in our mansion for days and I waited for this day to come, when I can finally be free to go outside, again, with no worries. And this day is how it’s supposed to be, but if someone would look closely, they’d be able to notice how horrified I am right now.Kyrie might be assuming that I’m still worried about the reporters coming our way, but I could tell better. I’m not worried about the reporters, I am worried that Tyron might come to me and lock me up in his place, again, like what he did to me before.My eyes watered in fear so I decided to hug my husband. Kyrie encircled his arms on me and kissed me on the top of my head. I
Nathalie’s P. O. V.“Nathalie, wait, please…” Dione grabbed my right arm to stop me when I tried to walk past her. “C-Can we talk?”I looked at her with no emotion in my eyes, “About what?”Even my voice was so cold that it took her by surprise. I felt like my breath was being taken away from me the longer I stood in front of her.Dione looked down as if she was thinking about what exactly she should tell me. My patience is wearing thin as I watch her hesitating while looking at me. For a moment, her mouth would open as if she wanted to tell me something, but once her fear got to her, she would close her mouth and would think again if she would say it.I clenched my jaw before I harshly pulled out my arm from her grip. Her eyes widened because of what she did and she almost fell off hadn’t she managed to balance herself.And no. I felt no pity inside me when I saw that. There was nothing but my anger.“Speak now because you’re seriously wasting my time!” I hissed at her, not hiding my
Nathalie’s P. O. V.I don’t know if Roxy only did that to mess with my mind or if she really meant something about what she said. Even if it was a lie or the truth, Roxy managed to shake my peaceful mind.I jumped in surprise when I felt someone hugging me from my back. I looked at him over my shoulder and saw Kyrie looking at me with full of love and adoration.Is this the man that I’m willing to doubt just because Roxy said something like that to me? But I can’t be so sure. Kyrie had once managed to show me his ruthless side.“Kyrie…” I called his name before I looked up at the sky from our balcony.“Hmm?” He whispered while planting small kisses on my shoulder.“What do you plan to do to us?” I asked in a low voice before I hugged his arms that were wrapped around my waist. “We’re trying to make our marriage work, but I haven’t really heard anything from you about your plan for us.”Kyrie’s left hand reached for my hair before he collected it and placed everything on my left should
Nathalie’s P. O. V.I was catching my own breath when Kyrie distanced himself to me. I open my eyes and look at him in confusion. He caressed my legs before he released a deep breath and looked up to me.“What?” I removed my hands from his shoulders. “Don’t you want me, Kyrie?”Kyrie laughed at me, as if I said a ridiculous joke.“That’s never going to happen, Love.” He said in a serious voice before he took off his polo. “I would always want you, Nathalie, but I’m afraid I won’t be able to perform well tonight.” I grimaced at what he said before I buried my face in his neck, “Since when did that happen?”Kyrie placed a kiss in my temple before he carried me in his arms through his closet. He put me down in the chair in the middle of the walk-in closet before he turned his back on me and changed his clothes.I rolled my eyes when I saw him looking at me while wearing his pants. I crossed my legs before my hands rested on my sides as I tilted my head in front of him.Kyrie took a deep
Nathalie’s P. O. V.I didn’t have a good night's sleep like how I was supposed to have last night, and all that because of what happened between all of us. Kyrie stayed with me to calm me down that night. We didn’t even manage to eat the food that I made for our dinner and I failed to give Kyrie the gift I bought for him.How dare they make a scene in the house where we live? And in the time that we’re supposed to have a great night!“Mrs. Menzel!” I was startled when I heard Logan’s voice beside me.I looked at his side with a shocked expression on my face, but I saw him looking at me in a horrified way.“W-Why are you shouting, Logan?! We’re just sitting next to each other for Pete’s sake!” I hissed at him.“You might want to look at your hand?” He asked while raising his forehead at me. “You just broke your pencil!”I unknowingly looked down at my right hand before realization hit my mind. I took a deep breath before I slowly let go of my pencil and put it down on my table. It was
Nathalie’s P. O. V.“I’m glad you made it, Kyrie!” We both turned around and saw a man, who was about the same age as Kyrie, walking towards us and giving my husband a tight hug. “I miss you, bro! I got no one to anger when I was serving abroad.”After greeting each other, Kyrie stood back beside me and pulled me towards him. His cousin, Casiuz, eyed me with familiarity in his eyes before he slowly smiled at me.“You already know her, Casiuz,” Kyrie said before he looked at me. “Love, this is Casiuz, my cousin.”I smiled at him before I handed him the gift we brought to him. Kyrie and I bought this first before we went here.“Hi! Nice to meet you, Casiuz. I hope you’ll accept our simple gift for you,” Casiuz accepted the gift from my hand so I smiled even more. “I hope you’ll like it.”“Well, I would never dare not to accept your gift, Nathalie,” he said before he took my hand and bent his back.I was shocked by what he did and was about to push him away when Kyrie suddenly pulled my
Kyrie Menzel's P. O. V."She's lovely, isn't she?" I asked my father beside me as I looked at my wife on the stage.She's now being introduced to everyone as the official heiress of the WGC and the Cole's Empire. After years of suffering in pain, my wife is now free to smile in front of everyone without any walls around her. I'm so proud of her."You really got it bad, son." I hear my father chuckle beside me. Could he blame me? I witnessed how my wife worked hard for the past three years to overcome her burdens and I couldn't be more proud than anyone else. Everyone applauded after Nathalie gave her speech and took photos with her parents. She went through a lot of greetings and congratulations before she finally reached my direction. I smiled at her before I stood up and wrapped my arms around her waist.I kissed her cheek as my right hand travels to her belly. I leaned forward and kiss her baby bump. "Kyrie.." My wife's sweet voice called for me. When I looked up to her, I saw
Nathalie's P. O. V."Tyron was sent to jail as well, just some time after that, I met Kyrie and had been with him," I looked at my husband beside me while I'm telling the whole story to my father. "Though, because of what I went through when I was still in Tyron's hand, I also ran away from him. That's when uncle had me. He took me in and take care of me."I continued telling them everyday I went through, even the part where I met Kyrie again and what happened to us. But when I reached the part where I informed them about Tyron coming back and he took me with him, Dione couldn't help but to be in tears as my father comforted her. It was a strange sight for me actually, I'm not used to seeing them together.My dad was in rage after hearing everything. He even promised to use all his connections just to make Tyron pay, but Kyrie and I told him not to do anything else with that, since we'll be taking care of everything. I know it disappointed him that he can't be of help, but he still re
Nathalie's P. O. V."What is this?" I heard Kyrie asking beside me. He's probably wondering now why the mother of the woman who hurt me and Kiara is right here and in front of us."Did you trap my wife here to beg for your daughter's forgiveness?" His cold and threatening voice echoed in the whole room."Kyrie, calm down, please." Dione said in a motioning her hand to Kyrie. "Let's talk calmly.""Calm? No! After everything that happened, you expect me to be f*cking calm?!" I looked at Kyrie's side when I felt his hand gripping mine tightly. "Did you blackmail her from coming here?!""Kyrie, no. There's no such thing that happened," Dione doesn't seem to know what else to say, she's probably even waiting for me to speak up."Then, what else happened, huh?! What else could be the reason my wife would tremble in fear to come here—-""Because she's my mother," I cut off Kylie's words.Kyrie looked at me with an evident surprise in his eyes. He doesn't seem to believe what I said, no… mor
Nathalie's P. O. V.I was walking towards the dining room with Kisra beside me and holding my hands as I watched her carry her doll that Kai gave her yesterday.Yes, another doll for my daughter and Kai received a good speech from me yesterday after I saw what he was holding. And I'm thankful that he already left now so no one would take Kiara's attention for her father alone.After our talk and plans last night, Kyrie spent the night here with us. Though, Kiara didn't see him because she was in deep sleep even until the morning came. And now, I wanted to surprise her about what our plans would be from now on."Mommy, isn't daddy coming today?" I heard Kiara ask with her sullen voice.I chuckled before I carried her in my arms and gave her a peck in her cheeks. Kiara avoided me because of the surprise she felt but she immediately went to hug me after realizing what I would do."I have a surprise for you," I whispered to her and I saw when Kiara's eyes twinkled in excitement and happin
Nathalie's P. O. V.I felt like I drained my blood and energy when I heard everything that he said. My body froze while looking at him and trying to understand everything I just heard from him.My eyes were watering again as I looked in horror at Kyrie. When I finally understand what he totally meant for what he said, I shake my head and cover my mouth with my hands.Never. I never thought of sending Roxy to jail for what she did to me before, when in fact, I can do it without any problem, especially that Tyron admitted it, too. But because of the fact that we're still sharing the same blood from our birth mother, I considered giving her another chance, that maybe, she can still change and leave me and Kyrie alone or at least just me and Kiara.And this? This is the payment she gave me for letting her be free from the law? She harmed my child! How did she even find out about me and Kiara? That's why the driver of the car didn't stop that night, because it was done intentionally. She d
Nathalie's P. O. V."Nathalie!" I heard when someone shouted my name, but I ignored it. I want to sleep more, I feel so drained right now."Nathalie, open this door! Now!"I groaned before I rolled on the bed and looked for my daughter, but I couldn't feel her body beside me. I slowly opened my eyes when I heard someone banging on the door.I saw Kiara sitting beside me while rubbing her eyes. She's even about to cry because of someone who is disturbing her from sleeping.I suddenly felt annoyed because of the person outside the door so I sat on the bed and looked at the digital clock in the bedside table, only to see that it was still three in the middle of the night! Who in their right mind would make such a scene at this hour?!I clicked my tongue and when I was about to stand up, Kiara crawled on the bed and went to hug me. I carried her in my arms before I walked towards the door and opened it. Kai's hand was hanging in the air and was about to hit the door again, but he stopped
Nathalie's P. O. V."What is the meaning of this, Nathalie?" Uncle asked before he stood up from his seat. "Why is he here?!""Dad, calm down, please." Mia immediately went to her father's side with Aunt Maury to help calm my uncle. "I'm sure Nathalie has her reason.""Reason? I understand that Kiara needed his blood, but after that, shouldn't he leave?!" I can sense the anger in my uncle's voice while looking at Kyrie who's approaching us."Not in front of Kiara," I heard Aunt Maury say with irritation in her voice. "You'll scare the child!"My uncle took a deep breath before he sit down and just watched as Kyrie and Kiara approached us together. Kiara was still smiling happily when she let go of Kyrie's hand and went to them. Mis was the first one to greet her by showering her kisses and hugs. Her eyes were even teary when she looked at Kiara's face."Oh, no… Look at the bruises in your beautiful face!" Mia exclaimed before she wiped her tears. "Our baby was hurt."Kiara smiled at
Nathalie's P. O. V.I slowly turned around to look at Kyrie with a confused look on my face. I found him staring at me with his eyes filled with no emotion."What did you say?" I asked in disbelief. "Did you just call me your wife?" I pointed my finger to myself while still holding the glass. "Kyrie, may I remind you that I already signed our divorce papers? Oh, yes, in papers I am still your wife, but we've agreed to be done already, haven't we? And besides, you're marrying Roxy. You're already engaged to her! And just waiting for the approval of our divorce!" I shake my head at him in disappointment before I turn my back.I took the cupcakes and finally left the kitchen with Kyrie still standing there. I saw in his eyes that he wanted to say something to me, but he didn't do it. He kept himself silent.When I went to the living room, Kiara was there and playing inside her tent. I saw her setting up her small table and plates before she put a party hat on her bear. I smiled with the
Nathalie's P. O. V."You called this home?" Kyrie asked with a disgusted look on his face."What did you say?!" I glared at him.He smirked at me in a playful way before he opened the door to the backseat."Just kidding," he said while smirking at me.I sighed in an exhausted way before I opened the trunk and took out our bags. I never knew he could joke around like that."Leave it, I'll take that in later." I heard Kyrie say in a loud voice while carrying Kiara in his arms.I raised my eyebrows when I saw my daughter trying her best to avoid skin contact with Kyrie who noticed what she was doing, too. I walked towards them and the moment Kiara was able to reach me, she immediately moved to jump in my arms. Kyrie and I looked at each other and I saw when he lost all his emotion in his face, but he remained calm when Kiara faced the house that's behind Kyrie."Mommy, let's go in. I want to play," Kiara said while pointing to the door. "Please?"I nodded before I walked towards the doo
