CHAPTER THIRTY-ONE

“Liam, at this rate I have figured I could never avoid you.” She teased jokingly. “Well, we didn’t quite finish our introduction. Maybe this is fate’s way of saying we have to.” He shrugged and she smiled softly. I could almost roll my eyes to the back of my head, watching him flirt with Hayley in my presence. “You are keeping to time now, that’s new.” I broke the little fun reunion they were having. “And you aren’t, shouldn’t you be dressed for work? You’re here being the husband of the year.” He teased and Hayley chuckled. “Ha-ha very funny, you just reminded me why I always pretend not to know you.” “Your loss, that aside. What do you want me to do about your vengeful brother? I don’t like getting involved in family feuds.” He walked behind me as I approached the living room. “I think I should get going, I’m already late for work” Hayley got up from the seat, she didn’t finish her meal but she ate enough to make me happy. “Let me drop you off at work.” I offered. “No thank

CHAPTER THIRTY TWO

HAYLEY’S POV“So, this is kind of awkward. I haven’t seen you in like fourteen years so it’s right that I think we have a lot to catch up on.” Shayla broke the silence between us, she had called yesterday for us to meet up for coffee.Even though she was standing right there in front of me, I still couldn’t believe that she was real. I mean after all these years that she has refused to even show up, I think I’m allowed to feel a little anger.“Yeah, you can start.” The light turned green for passerby to cross the road, I quickly started walking and she tried to catch up to my pace.“I understand that you are mad at me…” she said“You think?” I scoffed“But hey,” we had crossed safely and she stopped me by grabbing my arm, she pulled me so that I’d face her.“I’m here now, that’s what matters Hayley. It wasn’t like I wanted to stay there forever, I missed my sister, and now that I’m with you let’s just forget some things never happened.”I exhaled deeply, “you just stayed so long that

CHAPTER THIRTY THREE

“Yes!” I answered excitedly“Can I have your contact, so we can meet up and you’d show me some of your works?” he offered.“Of course, yes.” I collected his phone and saved my number on it,“Thanks, I’ll see you later.” He smiled softly before approaching the counter and Shayla dragged me away.“Sean Ryan just got my number!” I panted heavily; I was so excited that I could hyperventilate.“Things are getting so much better! I mean, I don’t see how my day could go bad…” And just before I finished that sentence, my supposed arch-nemesis walked in.“I didn’t think I’d be seeing you here, oh right I guess. You worked here; it would be bad not to go back to your root.” She cussed with a fake smile.“Cassidy, it’s always a nightmare to see you.”“Oh, it would be a nightmare for only you when I expose whatever secret you and Christian are hiding.”RIELE’S POV[FLASHBACK]“This man got hit pretty bad, I pray he makes it.” I heard a woman tell the other lady beside her, I told my driver to st

CHAPTER THIRTY FOUR

CHRISTIAN’S POV“Mr. Montgomery, I was thinking of giving you a call again.” Monica approached me as I walked into my company, I paused by the secretary. I noticed something had changed, I turned and my eyes met a different one. They weren’t seductive or needy, they looked self-conscious and reserved and weren’t Rebecca’s.“Good morning sir,” The brown haired lady secretary sprung up,“What’s your name?” I asked“Emily Clarke, sir.” She responded sharply, I took another keen look at her.“That’s okay, get back to work.” I approached the elevator, “I see you’ve been working hard, Monica. She isn’t my exact taste for a secretary but you tried.”Monica quickly pressed a button on the elevator, “Thank you, sir.” She smiled.The elevator dinged and opened, and there was a nervous-looking lady inside, she looked up and her eyes widened at the sight of me. I recognized her, Rebecca.“Christian!" She yelled as her voice was starting to break, she rushed out from the elevator.I was taken abac

CHAPTER THIRTY FIVE

“This is why Father could never give you the company, he needed someone man enough to handle something of this magnitude and you just keep showing how big of a pussy you are.”He chuckled softly, “Your words mean nothing to me, I would keep tormenting you with everything I have until you hand over the company to me.”“Then have at it! Do whatever the fuck you want but I won’t give you that satisfaction of seeing me suffer.”“Have it your way, now that I think about it, using Jennifer was just an introduction to what is to come. Since you’re man enough, you can brace yourself for my vengeful impact when it hits!’“Watch your back, brother.” He dropped the call.I inhaled sharply, my fists clenched in anger. I could feel myself sweating even with the air conditioning; I wanted to do more than just lay my hands on him.There was a slight knock on my door, “I don’t want to see anyone for now.” I yelled.But then the door opened regardless, “what’s got you in a frenzy?” a male voice said,

CHAPTER THIRTY SIX

CHRISTIAN’S POV“Give me one of your strongest liquor,” I said to the brown-haired waitress as I sat on a bar stool behind the counter. Khalid had to drag me away from the office before I got too self-absorbed and plotted my brother’s demise after his little phone call confrontation.Some very important guests came in for Khalid that he had to attend to, he also had to review some things in the club and hold a little meeting with his staff. But he was doing it one after the other, of course, he didn’t say I couldn’t be a part of it but my current mood would rather help myself to a drink.She gave me a dirty look before turning to mix up a drink for me, “Here, drown whatever is making you drink in the daytime.” She said with heavy sarcasm in her voice as she dropped the glass in front of me. who said people could only drink at night and not in the day?I shot her a glare before gulping down the liquid and it hit hard, “Fuck” I cussed under my breath as I shook my head, and she scoffed

CHAPTER THIRTY SEVEN

“He tried to rape me.” she finished, my head sparked like a light bulb. No one gets to touch Hayley, absolutely no one but me.I was denying my feelings for Hayley, but this was an eye-opener. I don’t want anyone touching her, I want to own her, to have her all to myself.“Wait for me, while I come for the bastard.”RIELE’S POVI dragged myself lazily as I walked into Christian’s house; I flung my shoes off my feet and threw my bag anywhere. Hopefully, it’d land somewhere safe.I lost Jayden once, and now that I found him I lost him again. Because of Alexander, because of how this family is. But he didn’t understand, just because one egg was bad doesn’t mean the rest would be too.Alexander in this proverb is the bad egg here, even in his absence he still managed to ruin my life. I approached the bar and grabbed a bottle of vodka without a glass, I planned to get drunk. What have I got to lose? I’m probably going to give up on finding my real mom anyway.“Nice house, I never doubted t

CHAPTER THIRTY EIGHT

HAYLEY’S POVIt felt like the traffic was going to last forever; I tapped my feet impatiently in the taxi. I couldn’t meet up with Sean yesterday, and I couldn’t help but think that I screwed up. It was going to be my first time to impress him with my portfolio, and I couldn’t even make it.“Girl, don’t get worked up. I’m sure Sean will understand.” Kitty said over the phone. I exhaled deeply as I stretched from where I sat at the back of the taxi to see if I could figure out what was causing the traffic.“I don’t expect him to understand, Kitty. We’re not friends, or at least I haven’t even started watering the relationship to that title. For now, I’m just an aspiring artist who spilled coffee on him.”"Look, a word of advice from me. Don’t overthink it; be natural. If he likes your work, then good for you, but if he starts to criticize like all these creepy professional artists, then walk away, love.” I heard her moan after taking a bite of something."Thanks, Kitty; I needed that.

CHAPTER THIRTY NINE

“Of course Sean, I would love to. Honestly this is a ground breaker for me, thank you so much.” I grinned, I was so happy that I couldn’t even hide my excitement.“It’s nothing Hayley, your art is what is bringing you this opportunity. Don’t stop painting, don’t lose this unique pattern that you have, nurture it and I can assure you that you might even be bigger than I am. Not that I’m big or anything…” He tried to downplay himself,“Are you kidding me? I’ve looked up to your work all my life! You inspired me, if you aren’t big to anyone you’re very much big to me.”Sean smiled before standing up from the seat, I got up from my chair too.“Anyways thank you, for coming and for sharing your art with me. the fundraiser is in two days, so I would contact you if I need anything else.” He said,“No problem, honestly I don’t even know how to pay you for the big help.”“Um-if you won’t mind, I was hoping you could join me for coffee.” He shrugged casually and I let out a small smile.“Sure,

CHAPTER FORTY

CHRISTIAN’S POVI sat down impatiently in the backseat as Terry drove as fast as he could to the hospital, Hermione had called that Dad had passed out again. The only thing coming to my mind is the fact that he was poisoned and maybe it’s still in his system. There are slow-acting poisons, so what if this was one of them? In a few minutes Terry parked in front of the hospital, I hurriedly got down and rushed towards the main entrance.As my eyes scoured the waiting area hoping I would see my mom, my eyes caught a pair of familiar ones. I recognized they were Hayley’s.“Christian,” she called as she noticed me too, I slowly walked up to her. There was someone else standing beside her, I didn’t know who she was but they looked very much alike so I could only guess they were related.“What are you doing here?” I asked, the girl beside her kept her gaze fixated on me.“I could ask you the same thing, but then your dad was just rushed in so that answers my question.” Hayley responded, she
