All Chapters of Thorns of the Heart: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Tyler’s POVI knew my mom was up to no good when she asked me to join her for lunch out of the blues. The news hit me like a rock as I saw the way Maddy’s eyes opened widely. Her palms began to sweat in that short moment, and I wasn't the only one surprised.“What are you saying, mum? That doesn't make sense to me.”“I know it doesn't, but that is the only way out, and you cannot turn this down.“This is nonsense, mom. You both are hell bent on forcing me to get married to someone I do not even love. Brenda is an abusive and uncultured woman, I will not get married to her! Never!!! I do not care how much the contract is worth; I will not do it. And besides, are you forgetting the fact that I’m legally married?”“Get a divorce, I don’t care, you must do it! You do not have a choice! I won't allow your ego to ruin everything your dad has worked so hard for.”“Do you even care about me, Mum? All you ever do is cajole me to do things that only favour you both; you use me as bait each time

Madison’s POV.“Calm down, Maddy; worrying won't make you find her.” Tyler said.“Calm down? You expect me to calm down? She is nowhere to be found and this place is almost empty. What will I tell my mom?”“You do not have to tell her anything, Maddy; she just got out of a coma. Do you want to send her back? Let’s just talk to a few people and see what information we can gather.”“I think we should involve the police, Tyler; I don’t want anything to happen to her. I am so scared.”“The police won't do anything; we have to wait for 24 hours before making a report. Let's just ask some more people; maybe they can give up useful information.”I asked around, and they pointed me to the host of the party, whose parents own the house. He took us upstairs, where there was less noise, so we could converse well.“Hello, my name is Madison and this is..."Tyler interrupted me before I could introduce him.“My name is Tyler Marshal, and I am her husband.I just rolled my eyes; he was doing too mu

Madison’s POVWe didn't go beyond a kiss. We suddenly stopped when I saw his dick rising and my nipples became hard. It wasn't the right moment for us to make out. So we stopped, took a deep breath and Tyler continued driving.We got to the hospital and we made our way into my mother’s ward. I wasn't as tense as I was, and I wasn't nervous. Even though Gem was missing, I stayed calm, thanks to the kiss.We got in and I found Andy sitting outside my mom’s ward. We walked and approached him. I wasn't sure where Mrs. Rosaline would be but I guess she should be inside with my mum.“Good evening, sir.”Andy greeted Tyler politely before turning to greet me.“Do you have any useful information yet?”“No, Andy, all the people I asked didn't give us any useful information.”“This is scary Maddy; I know Gem, even though she is a handful, but she never stays this long without reaching out to me, even if it is with someone else's phone. I think we should file a missing person report.”“And who i

Tyler’s POV“You heard what he said. Maddy, you saw the text. Gem is fine; she is just having a hard time so she took a time out. It happens to everyone.” I tried to calm her down.“I know but I still have this weird feeling; something is not right. She wouldn't have texted me the address if she wanted to run away with her new-found lover.”“You worry too much; your sister will be fine; she will be back; just put your mind at rest.”“Please take me to Rebel Wolfs; I need some shots so I can sleep tonight; if not, I would be tossing and turning on my bed tonight.” Madison requested“But you just took a glass a few seconds ago.” I wasn’t going to let get drunk tonight.“More reasons why I need more.” She answered.We were already in my car by this time, and I could see the worry in her eyes. She was really worried about her sister, and I couldn't do anything to take the worry away. Judging from the message Gem sent to her boyfriend, she must be somewhere having fun by now.I drove Maddy

Tyler’s POV“Yuck!! Gosh!” I exclaimed.“I hate you, Tyler!” Madison said drunkenly.“Are you kidding? Aren’t you supposed to say sorry? Now I have to go home smelling like puke.”“That is what you get for being a bully.”Madison was very drunk; she didn't even know what she was doing at that point; her eyes were almost closed. Sophie handed me a napkin so I could clean my body.“Sorry about the mess, sir; do you need water and soap?”“No, it's fine; I'll just take her home. Who ordered these Tequila shots for her, by the way?”“It was the man who tried to assault her; he ordered the drinks for her.”"Alright, thanks. Get me my bill. Let me pay and go home.”“Do not worry about that, sir; Matthew said the drink is on the house.” Sophie informed me.“Why would he do that?”“He just wants to apologize for what happened here tonight.”“Alright, tell him a big thank you. Tell him that I will call him later.”“Alright sir.” Sophie replied and walked away.I stood up and held Maddy, she was
