All Chapters of After Divorce, The Heiress Decides to Revenge: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

ALANNAHow the hell did I get myself into this mess?"I said, stay out of it Brad," Nolan growled, his voice laced with a dangerous edge."Or what? Are you gonna psychoanalyze me again?" Brad scoffed, his face contorted in a sneer.This was bad. Really bad. My heart hammered against my ribs, a frantic drum solo in my chest. I opened my mouth to intervene, but the words died in my throat before I could force them out.It all happened so fast. In a blink, Nolan's fist clenched tight and whipped through the air. The sickening crunch of bone on flesh echoed in the tense silence as his fist connected with Brad's jaw. Brad crumpled to the floor like a ragdoll, a choked cry escaping his lips.My breath hitched. "Nolan!" I screamed the words a panicked shriek.Ignoring me, Nolan loomed over Brad, his chest heaving. "Now, do I have your attention, Alanna?" he spat, his voice dripping with venom.Before I could reply, Brad surged to his feet, fuelled by rage. He swung wildly, his fist connecting

ALANNA“I am going to kill Nolan,” I swore out loud, “I am going to kill him and feed his bones to wolves to feed on, what the actual fuck”I hate Nolan!I am going to kill Nolan!This time I mean it, I am going to kill him. I was already out of my bed, I thought I could just have a relaxing day, alone but it was clear the devil’s advocate Nolan wasn't going to let that happen.“Alanna, calm down,” Angela pleaded and I sneered at her, casting a glare at her.“How dare you ask me to calm down,” I tossed the paper to her. “He is taking me to court over custody of my children,”“It says here that it is the Westbrook, doesn't say Nolan,”Why the fuck is she in the habit of defending Nolan?“Are you crazy? how many Westbrooks do we know that would take me to court for custody, and it just happened that as soon as Nolan finds out he is the father, my ass is being dragged to court,”“I am sure he is just doing this because you refuse him the right to see the kids,”I scowled at her, “Which

ALANNAI hate Nolan Westbrook. I know I have said this a lot, but this time. I meant it with every fiber of my being, with every breath in me.“Why would he endanger my children like this?” I had asked Angela on the call.“I don't know, he should know better that this media life shouldn't be for kids,” she had responded in a low tone, all her Nolan’s defense seemed to have gone down the drain. That is the thing with Nolan Westbrook.He will disappoint you. I had to leave my gracious date with the Vogue Lady and here I was driving to the Westbrook Mansion to give Nolan a piece of my mind.He messed with the wrong person, as I scrolled through the article, I saw a lot of nasty things it painted me out to be.“She prioritizes her Job over her Children,” one of the articles highlighted calling me a workaholic mum whose child is being raised by Nannies.I hated Nolan for putting my kids out there like that. I had tried my best to keep my kids out of the media because I wanted them to

NOLANMy mother’s voice lingered all through the rest of the weekend. It was the voice that kept me awake all through last night and the one I thought of when I drove early to the office because I received the email from the board.“You are going to lose everything if you decide to divorce Chloe,” that word echoed, it is one thing to lose half but to lose everything? That is a whole different ball game. I had to talk to Jake, he had acted severally as my legal counsel. Although Jake and I had a business partnership together, he was a Havard law graduate and had stood as my legal counsel severally. From filing for divorce to the custody battle, there would be a lot I would need counseling for. But one at a time. I stepped out of the elevator as the staff already present greeted me, I responded with a casual head raise, my mind was occupied, after the stunt I had pulled last week by canceling the Launch without their consent, I expected this form of backlash. Actions have conseque

ALANNAIs Nolan crazy? Or is this one of his schemes to get me to think he is on my side?But why?First, he takes my ass to fight for custody, then he shifts the launch for me. Then he asks Chloe for a divorce and shows up on my date to fight with Brad. Now is about to lose his position as CEO for me.Talk about mixed signals.“Alanna, Alanna, wait up,” I heard a familiar voice call my name, I did not have to look to know who it was that was calling me. Brad.“Hi Brad,” I greeted, slowing down my pace as I stride towards my office. “Do you have a moment?” he asked as he caught up with me, I paused and veered to face him, he had a slight grin on. I could almost swear that he was happy with the outcome of the meeting. Well, why shouldn't he be? He and Nolan had always had the worst relationship and he had always thought that Nolan didn't deserve to be CEO, I wouldn't blame him though because he works just as hard as Nolan.“What's up,” I asked. “I just wanted to talk to you as a fr
