Chapter 11 Annabelle’s POV I was impatient to know what contradicted between Henry and Travis even though I refused to show up at the meeting. I walked down to Henry's office to ease the suspense I was experiencing. "Hey, how did it go?" I asked, flashing him an innocent smile just to hide my curiosity. "It didn't go well." He responded in a lower tone. "Why?" "Travis was so disappointed that you weren't there, he was not active so I canceled the meeting and reschedule it. There is no way I would be talking to myself." He narrated out of frustration, there was a frown registered on his face. I smiled as the words pleased my soul. "Sorry about that." "Thank you, I know you are happy but don't laugh here." He warned, that made me burst into laughter. He gave me a bombastic side eye, so I walked out of his office immediately. The last thing I would do is to have a meeting with him, it is evident enough that he wants me to get involved and I’m not ready to. I headed straight to

Chapter 12Annabelle's POV My thoughts are now shifted from dealing with Travis to raising the company far and higher than it is. It's the only way I can get ahead of Travis and beyond. Henry wasn't in support of it but I'm pleased and that's all that matters to me. I'm too filled to even remember my son wanted an ice cream. I sat to think a bit, the rest of day is done and I have to be home, Jackson's got to see his mum have time for him. “Dinner? To soothe you a bit. Send a message if you want to meet, or not.” I stared at the message that popped out on the screen of my phone. “I never get to breathe?” I said to myself. My head whooshing, getting all red painted but I could still let off some steam.“Harry grill cutties…meet me there.” Henry sent back a message to acknowledge he got the message. Sometimes I just laugh at myself and breathe heavily, I'll definitely make it out and show the Smiths what I'm made of. I kept my thoughts on a steady spot,walking to my father's offi

Chapter 13Annabelle's POVI don't know what went wrong, he could have just asked me to stay back if he couldn't take care of him. “Dad? His head was faced down on the table. He gently raised his head up,his face filled with fury. “Dad, what's the matter?” “Don't stand there, asking me unnecessary questions.” He barked at me. I was fear locked when he said that. My heart shifted it got me scarier. “Dad.” I said, softly. “You didn't tell me you'll take the company into family business.” “Family business? Dad, I don't understand.” I cried.“Why did you join in with Travis? Uh? Answer me!!” His hands banged hard on the table. I could feel the fury in his voice. He was really disappointed. “You are the CEO of the company and if anything goes wrong, you'll answer for it.” “Dad!” I moved closer to him, hoping he'd stay calm and listen to me. “Dad, listen, I'm not letting him in because I want to be with him again. I just wanted to raise the company's welfare.” I explained. “So wh

Chapter 15
Annabelle’s POV The whole hall was musical and lively, I noticed Travis stepped in behind us all the time. I went closer to my father and whispered in my ears. I was ready to make things worse for Travis but he’s been quiet all this time like a child that has no friends or parents awaiting him at home.“Alright, get him up on the stage for a better introduction. There should be a proper welcome.” “Yes, dad.” “Yes! You all should meet Travis Smith. He’s part of us now.” I said, like I’ve accepted his shit back. After all, it was my intent to knock him down. Everyone stood up to give a clap as he walked forward. I still do not understand why he’d go outside to hide himself. I smiled, clapping along with others while he came on stage. I gave him a handshake and he refused to let my hands go until I shoved him away.“Come out with me.” I hinted at him with a quick word from my mouth and my head given sign language. First, his face looked funny, he had this silence in him which I thou

Yes I can do it.” Travis hung up before Samantha could even say anything again. “What is wrong with you both?” “She's been nagging and I can't take it anymore.” Travis complained. “Then you should take it easy with her.” “Samantha doesn't like it easy. So, I'll just give her the hard way.” “You don't have to be cruel, Travis.”“I'm just avoiding trouble. See she took the sketch I made for the project. It starts soon, they'll launch it along with the company's new project and if that is done, we'll definitely be the face of NHS also.

Chapter 17
Chapter 17 Author’s pov. Travis scoffed. “Not at all, I'm not going to jail. You can keep going”. Travis said as Henry went ahead to meet Annabel and the rest, leaving Travis behind. Travis’s eyes were so focused on the scene before him, that he was so confused and lost in thought about his ex-lover and her son. “Could Jackson truly be my son? No, he can't.” His mind was clouded with unsettling thoughts. “Annabella and I were together for 5 years, and never got pregnant” he muttered as his face flickered to a mixture of confusion and curiosity. “Or could Jackson be Henry's son?”, No, he can't be, Jackson behaves and looks more like me, not Henry”. “Wait, he must be my son because Jackson has never called Henry his dad before, but why didn't she tell me all this while?” Travis thought in his head. “Now I'm not only going to get Annabel back but first I would have to confirm if he is my son” he muttered as he nodded his head in determination. Travis knew that in other to get A

As soon as he got to the door he turned to look at me one more time before he finally left. “Madam, are you alright?” asked the nanny with a concerned voice, I was silent. “I am fine, thank you. I just want to be alone for now, please” I said with a low voice. “Ok ma'am, but call me whenever you need me,” said the nanny as she went to complete her chores.
