Chapter 57Blake DavenportPOVWithin five seconds of watching up I’d known this day was going to go to shit, I’d woken up with one of the worst hangovers I’ve had since college.Then as soon as I’m up my phone is filled with messages and phone calls from half a dozen people. The one day I place my phone on silent enjoying a couple of drinks with my friends Julliet goes into labor without me.I should say thank fuck she hasn’t given birth yet, but fuck watching in how much pain she’s in every time she has a contraction and there’s nothing, I can do to ease her pain. We didn’t even have a birthing plan in place yet. The doctor hasn’t told us whether Julliet is safe to give birth naturally or not.I’m like a fish out of water and it sends a shiver down my spine. I have no idea what’s going to happen next, and I don’t like not being in control.I run my fingers through my hair, and I watch another wave of contractions hit Julliet.“How bad is it?” I ask brushing her hair out of her face,
Chapter 58Samantha BlackheartPOVTwo days ago, Craig and I tied the knot at his grandparent’s house, the house we’re moving into right now.It was a small ceremony, and thank God Julliet and Blake were able to attend, the only downside was that they couldn’t stay for the reception. With the girl’s still in the NICU they didn’t want to leave them for too long. But we were blessed to have them even if it was just for one hour, because Julliet was my maid of honor and Blake was Craig’s best man, it wouldn’t be the same without them there.The house is beautiful, and I could see the changes Craig made to the house, it fits in with my style and his as well. Harry loves her room. She’d taken a liking to it as soon as she found out Craig designed it just for her.I didn’t realize how much stuff I had at my house until this very moment, some of the things had to be donated or sold. I didn’t need any memories of Aaron and my relationship. I was a married woman now. I was married to the man I
Chapter 592 Months laterJulliet HarveyPOV"Blake, I want to go back to work…" I tell my boyfriend for what feels like the hundredth time.Blake shakes his head. “Julliet you’re not ready yet…” he tells me.I shake my head. “I need to be at the meeting… I can’t keep letting Samantha do everything. She’s pregnant…” I tell Blake.He shakes his head again. “We just got both girls home and now you want to go back to work Julliet how is fair to them?” he asks.Blake goes back to work next week, yet he’s forbidden me from going back to work. I can no longer get things done from my computer screen. I need to attend meeting, Samantha’s going to need rest soon and begin to slow down, I want to help her as much as possible."Blake, I understand your concern, but your mom is helping out, and I wouldn’t be gone for more than two hours at a time." I argue.He shakes his head. “Julliet, I said no…” he stands."Blake this is so unfair… You get to go back to work next week, and you want to trap me
Chapter 60Samantha JamesonPOVI sit on the bench in a nearby park, I was still in disbelief. I couldn’t bring myself to believe he would actually do something like that.It’s gone, all of its gone. My entire life’s saving, my investments everything. Every single paycheck I made since I started modelling. The side jobs I saved up so much money, a nest egg for my future. The trust Aaron and I set up for Harry gone, everything is gone.I’d just filled out a police report. The money from Harry’s trust I can’t rely on that because he had access to that.When Aaron and I started dating, he’d told me about an investment firm and we invested money separately, he didn’t have access to that money.I’d check on the account regularly but with everything going on with Aaron cheating, then Craig, I haven’t checked it since before then.I can’t believe it’s all gone. From what the police told me, the bank should be liable since my signature isn’t on any of the paperwork and they’d given the money
Chapter 61Julliet HarveyPOVI run my fingers through my hair when I walk over to the girls’ room. They’re asleep. But I love watching the girls sleep. Having them both at home really brings joy to my heart.I can’t believe how much my life has changed over the last year. I’m in a healthy relationship and I have two beautiful girls. I’ve never felt this blessed since before my parents died.I open the door and walk in closing the door behind me. I can’t believe how much I love this little babies already. And with each passing day that love only grows by tenfold.I stand by their crib. We tried to have them sleep in their individual cribs, but the girls would only cry unless they slept in the same one.Almost every morning we find Hallie hugging her older sister. Haisley loves her little sister as well, you can see it in the way she holds her sister’s hands in her tiny little fingers.I kiss both girls and walk out before I wake them.I walk back to Blake and my room. Blake was at wor
Chapter 62Kendall MarksPOVI’ve dealt with many people in my life. It comes with the job, I meet with people from all walks of life, from assholes to saints. Justin Bradford could give the devil a run for his money. The man is worse than scum.He would kill to have his goals. I never liked the asshole, but my friend was so in love that I just had to put up with him.I’m not saying I’m happy with her current relationship either. The man has commitment issues but at least he would never cheat on her the way Justin did.Sitting in front of my boss was one of the last things I wanted to be doing right now. But I knew I couldn’t do it on my own. I needed his help. I needed his resources.I’ve been uncomfortable around Blake Davenport since he and my best friend started seeing one another.“Miss Marks. I don’t have all day. Glaring at me doesn’t seem very productive now does it?” The boss says sarcastically.I glare at him. “I need your help…” I grit out.He looks at me amused. “Okay Miss
Chapter 63Samantha JamesonPOVCraig pulls me closer into his arms and kisses my bare shoulder. “God I’m so happy right now…”I smile. I don't say anything after Craig came home from his trip last week, he's held me close to him. I'd confessed my troubles to him and as I expected he wanted to kill Aaron. I had to hold him off from searching for Aaron and letting the law deal with him.He'd officially lose all custody of Harry and it makes me sad. My daughter would lose all contact with her father, and she won't understand why.She already barely sees him I hate that Aaron keeps coming up with more ways to ruin things. She doesn't understand what he's done wrong in her mind he's still her father. And she still asks for him.I open my eyes. And relish this moment with my husband..."Well, aren't you excited..." I mention his member brushing up against my ass cheeks.“Its a natural reaction to having you in my arms and having a morning wood." he growls.I turn to face him."What are you
“Why the hell would I do that exactly? You’re nothing but a piece of shit who stole not only me but his own daughter’s future.” Its what pissed me off most, he stole from Harry’s trust fund. Money for her college fund, money that could have gone towards her wedding or whatever she wanted to use it for. It was her money to do with what she saw fit, and him stealing it from her robing her of her future.Craig created a new trust fund for Harry, it wasn’t his responsibility because he isn’t her father, but he did anyway. I can’t say the same for her own father. Craig has been a better father to Harry than Aaron’s ever been. I close my eyes; I hate that I keep doing that. I keep comparing Craig and Aaron, I know it’s wrong. They’re two different people, two different upbringings, two different morals and values. Yet the man with a perfect childhood is more morally corrupt than a man who had to fight throughout his childhood? Having his childhood robbed from him.“I see… You think that bas
