165.**Nicole's POV**Two days passed, and I stood dressed in all black as I watched the coffin they had placed Easton's body lowering to the ground. I wanted them to open it for me to see his face again. I wanted to tap him and maybe, just maybe, it'd turn out that he was asleep, and I'd be able to wake him up, and we can go back to our normal lives, but they didn't let me. It was just like yesterday that everything happened, and I have become a shadow of my former self. During these past two days, I have tried everything in my power to take my own life, but Emily, Edwin, and Butler Steve always found a way to stop me.Whether it was poison I was trying to take, stab myself or hang myself, they were always there to ruin my plans.

I wiped the tears away, but the mor

Why?Ariana stood to her feet immediately. “What the hell are you talking about? How can you tell me Easton transferred everything to this lowlife?” She pointed at Nicole, who was still in shock.“Mr. Seth, I don't understand. Why would he transfer everything to me?” Nicole asked.“He said you are the only qualified person and the only person that can handle the company. That was why he hired you as his model in the first place. It was to help your career and to also familiarize you with the company. He requested that Mrs. Roxy and Maven show you around and also guide you.” He said, and Ariana frowned.She hated the turn of events. She thought Easton was a fool, but the man had actually proven to her that he was indeed smart. She thought he died without leaving any will behind, that way she and Carson would be able to take everything as the family, but he

168.**Nicole's POV**I walked into Easton's office and looked around. They had wanted to give me a new office but I insisted they let me use his. I know they want the best for me and didn't want me staying in the office to still remember him but I didn't want to forget about him either. He was my everything and being in the office he once used might as well give me the comfort that he was in a better place.I walked to his desk and slid my finger on his laptop. My eyes went to a hanger where his suit jacket was hung. I quickly walked to where it was and picked it. I walked back to the chair and sat down as I held the jacket close to my chest.His scent was still on it and it brought back memories. I remembered the first time I had gotten close to him. He had helped me make a comeback and had loved me unconditionally. He had touched me in a way no one had. He made me feel loved in a way no one else can and brought satisfaction to me. He gave me hope and always soothes me with his word

If Easton hadn't met Nicole in the first place, everything would have been fine between them and she would have not be forced to take matters into their own hands.According to the way she saw things, it was all Nicole's fault.“It is all your fault, Nicole,” She said and Nicole arched her brows. “All these happened because of you. You are the reason why Easton is dead. If you had obeyed me when I warned you to leave him, we wouldn't have been in this dilemma now. You caused all these and you have the guts to come here and try to pin the blame on me?” She snapped. “I was Easton's childhood sweetheart. We were destined to be together, but what did you do? You just had to show your ugly face and walk your way into his life.”“Easton didn't love you. He only saw you as a friend. I was the one h

How dare she speak to me in such manner?” Ariana yelled and flung her back on the chair the minute she stepped into the house.Carson, who was seated with a glass of wine in his hand, looked up at her. “What did she do this time?” He asked, standing to his feet.“Can you imagine she called you incompetent and irrresponsible just because I asked her to hand over the documents. Who does she think she is?” Ariana snapped and Carson frowned.“Nicole called me incompetent? How could she? What makes me incompetent? What has Easton done that I cannot do?” He snapped and Ariana sighed.“Look, we can't keep letting her have her way. It's time we take matters into our own hands. I have a way to take her off from that place whether she likes it or not.

It was supposed to be my first birthday with you, and I had already thought of how today would have been, but everything got ruined. You died and left me all alone here to celebrate today on my own. You have plenty of explanations to give me when we see each other again, mister!” I snapped, hoping he would hear me wherever he was.I smiled as tears rolled down my cheeks. I quickly wiped them off as Mrs. Felicia's words rang in my ears. I stood to my feet; I should make this day worthwhile for myself and for him.I rushed into the bathroom and took my bath.

If I can't spend it with him while he was alive, I can as well spend it beside his grave.This was supposed to be my first birthday with him and…I trailed off in my thoughts and wiped the tears that rolled down my cheeks. I heaved a deep breath and stared at my computer. I missed Easton so much. Every day, I keep seeing things that remind me of him, and it hurts whenever I go out for an evening walk and see couples being all lovey-dovey with each other. He was the best thing that has ever happened to me and I would forever be grateful to him for that.I checked my wristwatch and sucked in a deep breath. Why was Edwin not back yet?
