Nathalie Wrights's P. O. V.

Two weeks since I fell sick, I still don't remember what happened that night. I kept on asking Mia, but she wouldn't tell me anything and will just keep telling me that what important is I managed to get through that night. Until I finally lost my interest and just let it be.

I stood up when I saw Mr. Corbyn coming in my direction. He's with his bodyguard while holding his suitcase.

"Pleasure to meet you, Ms. Wrights.." He offered his hand to me so I gladly accepted it.

"It's my pleasure too, Mr. Corbyn!" I motioned the chair to him while smiling. "Please, have a seat."

After we sat down, I took the folder beside me and handed it to him, and when Mr. Corbyn accepted it, I discuss with him my offer to invest in my company and its main job.

"I like this offer, but.." Mr. Corbyn said before he put down the folder and look at me with such seriousness in his eyes. "Isn't your company almost on bankruptcy?"

I forced myself to smile at him. "I won't deny it----"

    Nathalie Wrights P. O. V."Mia Laurier?" I heard a familiar voice from behind me and it was calling Mia's name so I turned around and face him.We were both taken aback when we saw each other."Ms. Wrights?" He asked, still can't believe that he's seeing me again."Since when did your name become Lester? I thought it was Logan," I crossed my arms while looking at him with confusion."Oh, about that.." He walked towards me. "It's Lester Logan Cooper, Ms. Wrights. A pleasure to meet you," he offered his hand to me for a shake and I accepted it. "Again..." That's when I felt the tension between us and his cold aura surrounding him.I cleared my throat before I smiled at him. "Likewise," I took back my hand and asked him. "So, shall we?" Logan furrowed his brow at me."What do you mean? I'm not looking for you," he said, showing no emotion in his voice."Well, ahm.." I faked a smile before I speak again. "It was me.""Your name's not Mia Laurier----""I heard that Kyrie's dad is in the co

    Nathalie Wrights's P. O. V."Yes, ma'am?" My secretary came in to my office after I called for her.I unclasped my hands as I look into her eyes. "Now that Mr. Kyrie Menzel is one of our investors, we will need to announce it to everyone and give him an access to work and..." I firmly closed my eyes while massaging my temple. "Come here whenever he pleases to do so. You can also give him now the folders that Mr. Payne was working on before and let him handle the job.""Yes, Ma'am. I'll take that in note!" Julia, my secretary, said before she tap something on her tablet."And order something for me in lunch, I will call you back later after I think what date would be best to celebrate our partnership with Mr. Menzel," I opened my laptop again beside my computer. "You may go now.""Thank you, ma'am!" I didn't watch anymore when Julia left my office, I just remained focused in front of my laptop while my computer is loading to open some files.

    Nathalie Wrights P. O. V.When I woke up the next morning, I clutched my head when I felt it throbbing in pain. I think the alcohol really did get me last night. After all, I drink a lot more than Renz did and I didn't notice it because we were too busy talking to each other.I diverted my attention to my phone when it keeps on ringing. I pick it up before checking who the caller is and ended up raising my brows when I saw that it was Renz. I took a quick glance at my clock and saw what the time is before I answered the call."Hello, Renz?" I asked while massaging my temple."Good morning, Nathalie! Are you going to work today?" Renz's voice sounded so energetic and I grimaced with it. "Hey, you there?" He asked when I didn't answer him."Renz..." I called out his name while still grimacing. "Are you a normal person? Don't you know what time it is?""Well, ahm.." I heard Renz chuckle on the other line. "Six in the morning?" I sighed before I get up to the bed and wear my slippers."D

    Nathalie Wrights's P. O. V.I was massaging my jaw to lessen the pain that I am feeling before I enter the house. I wasn't surprised to see Renz there since I gave him the address earlier. With a smile on his lips, he stood up and greeted me with a kiss on my cheeks."Hey, beautiful! How was your day?" He asked.I wanted to answer him right away, but my jaw was aching really bad and it prevented me from talking. Renz was about to notice it when I force myself to smile at him."Hey.." I smiled at him.It was a good thing that Julia was good at make-up and she helped me to cover up my swollen jaw. I know that she wanted to ask what happened when she was doing my make-up but stopped herself to respect her boss's privacy. I admire that thing about her."You okay?" Renz asked before he collected the hair that was hindering my face and tucked it behind my ear. "You look worn out..""W-Well, I-I..." I cleared my throat before speaking again. "I'm probably just tired, I dealt with something

    Nathalie Wrights's P. O. V.I know that I have already done a lot of acting before when it comes to making everyone believe that you're doing fine even though you're not, but today... I just couldn't help but to curse Kyrie in my head while clenching my fists under the table, doing it helps me to calm myself and not do anything with this j*rk in front of me.And that m*therf*cking gorgeous man is now signing a contract with three of my investors. Kyrie's share raised from ten to twenty five percent! Just a few more and he would definitely have what he want from my company and I can't just let him to do that! But this man... He played it well that I didn't even see this one coming and it pisses me off, good time!"Thank you!" They shake hands after signing the contract.Taking a gentle deep breath, I stood up to shake their hands too."It was an honor to work with you, Ms. Wrights. However, we will need to part our ways now." Mr. Greco said while shaking my hand."I understand, Mr. Gre

    Nathalie Wrights's P. O. V.Tomorrow would be the day of the party. I already informed my family about our plans and that I am coming with Kyrie to attend the 'celebration'.Since the other day, I hadn't seen Kyrie again. He's probably busy with his own business or maybe... He's just really avoiding me. Because I am now back to my right mind, that's when I just realised that I broke down while I was on a call with Kyrie. Remembering that, I squeezed my eyes while feeling embarrassed to myself. 'D*mn, what did I do again?!'"Earth to Nathalie!" I heard Mia's voice, beaming in the four corners of the VIP restaurant room that we rent to have our lunch.I left my company early today and let Julia to send out the invitations so I can have lunch with Mia in this place. We've been here for quite some time now."What was it again?" I asked her before I eat the shrimp on my plate. "Really? Spacing out again?" Mia asked me with a weird look on her face. She sighed before dropping her fork and

    Nathalie Wrights's P. O. V."I'm nervous..." Mia whispered beside me while looking in the mirror. "I don't often go to parties like this, Nathalie. I can only attend because of you and I should be used to it already, but now it's different."I was arranging my earrings when Mia sat down beside me. "What if I mess up? Nathalie, I can't face that Corbyn again, but I have to endure to come with you so I can make sure that his reputation will be tarnished and he'll be punished at the same time!" Yeah, Mia's really lashing out in nervousness right now.I shook my head and didn't answer her. I'd been consoling Mia that she can do it, but she wouldn't listen to me so I presume that it's just her way of calming herself? With that in mind, I didn't mind her anymore and just did my own business.The hairstylist behind me needed to wear his earphones and listen to music just to not be distracted by Mia's voice while he's doing my hair for the second time after I accidentally removed the ties ea

Kyrie stated before he removed his right hand on the steering wheel to reach out to mine.I didn't answer him back because it's really obvious that I am tense. I mean, how can't I? Kyrie's just inches away from me and we're alone in his fr*aking car!Silently, I am cursing Mia in my mind. I'm really not supposed to go, but Mia forced me in and this *ssh*le took advantage of it! He locked the door before he drove away. I even saw his father's glares on me earlier and I knew that he won't stop from pushing me away again. Well, the only difference from before is this time, I would definitely cooperate with him. I let out a deep breath while looking outside of the car's window. 'Fine. Just this once, after this...' I clenched my fist. After this, I don't know what to do next! 'Ah, no. I know! I do know that I should avoid him! But how can I avoid him when he's always around me?! Maybe his father can help...'Kyrie stopped his car in front

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
