21: The Argument

The car ride home was a simmering pot of tension, Sasha's anger boiling over with every passing mile. She couldn’t believe her mother could suddenly make her a laughing stock, she knew what she was doing and she had her own way of seducing a man not making her look desperate, how could she do this to her, hurting her ego? "How could you, Mother?" Sasha's voice seethed, her eyes fixed on the passing scenery. "Visiting Madam Hart in the hospital? That was not part of the plan. I wouldn’t have followed you if you mentioned it was Nathaniel’s grandma!” Mrs. Montgomery's calm demeanor only fueled Sasha's ire."I know what I'm doing, dear," her mother replied, checking her reflection in the rearview mirror.Sasha's scoff was incredulous. "You have no idea! You've ruined everything. Nathaniel will suspect I'm after him now. He'll think it's all business, and he'll push me away."The silence between them was oppressive, Sasha's frustration building with each passing moment."Why did you do

22: Determined

Avery “Fuck!” I muttered under my breath. I couldn't believe Sasha saw me. The shock still lingered, my mind replaying the moment our eyes met. My heart was racing, my palms slick with sweat, and my grip on my purse became tight as the driver pulled up to Nathaniel's mansion, I hadn’t expected this encounter, it wasn’t part of what I had in mind at all. The imposing gates swung open, and the security guard nodded in recognition, his expression professional while mine remained neutral. "Good evening, Miss Avery," he said, his voice firm but polite. I forced a smile, still trying to shake off the tension. "Good evening. Is Mr. Hart in the building?” I asked with a kind smile on my face. “Yes,” he replied. The guard's eyes scanned the surrounding area before returning to me. "You're clear to enter ma’am, he asked us to let you in as soon as you arrive. “ “Thank you,” I nodded, my driver accelerating into the winding driveway. The mansion's facade came into view, its eleg

23: Planned

“Do you want me to help…”“Shut up! And get the hell out of my car!”Sasha screamed at the driver who jumped out of the car immediately, he wasn’t sure of what he had done but he knew he had made her angry. Sasha hissed and stepped out of the car, she slammed the car door shut, the metallic clang echoing through the evening air. Her anger and frustration boiled over, her chest heaving with each ragged breath. She stormed into the mansion, her heels clicking on the polished marble floor. The sound reverberated through the hallway, disturbing the eerie silence that was once in the mansion. "Mother!" she called out. “I am here! Where are you now?!” Mrs. Montgomery emerged from the study, a crystal glass of whiskey in hand, the liquid glowing in the soft light. Her expression remained calm, as she looked at Sasha who was an opposite of her, she was angry, livid must say. "Sasha, what's wrong?" she asked. “You shouldn’t work yourself up too much you know, you shouldn’t.” Sasha's eyes

24: D-Day

AveryI stood before the mirror, my gaze locked on my reflection. A sly smile spread across my face as I slowly dressed, each movement deliberated. The black dress hugged my curves, its darkness a reflection of my intentions. What a sad day it’s going to be for the Montgomerys and all I can do is help them mourn, I chuckled a bit never knowing I could have such an intention towards the people I once called family. "I've waited for this moment for so long," I whispered to myself, my voice barely audible. The hatred I'd harbored for the Montgomerys simmered all over me. I adjusted the hat, ensuring it covered more than half my face. Anonymity was key tonight. I couldn't risk being recognized, since I haven’t cleared my case with the police, I might end up in prison instead of them if I am found. My thoughts swirled just as I swirled the glass of wine in my hand. The Montgomerys had destroyed me, left me for dead. But I'd risen, stronger and more determined. Tonight, I'd watch them

25: Stay With Me

Avery I froze, my heart racing as the second gunshot echoed through the hall. This wasn't part of the plan. How could there be a sudden gunshot? Is there someone else who had plans for today, Nathaniel and I had agreed on something simple, no violence. What was happening?“I have to go back to the hall?” I mumbled to myself and Ethan arched his brows at me. “You can’t tell me you are walking into danger, people are running out and you want to go in there what if you are shot?!” Ethan yelled at me and I glared at him.“Then you should be happy I am completely gone, whatever I do is none of your business!” I said through gritted teeth and turned around to walk into the hall but Ethan grabbed my hand just in time. “Avery wait! This is stupid!” “Get your fucking hand off me!” I screamed at him but he refused to let me go, I pulled my hand angrily and scowled at him. “Don’t ever!” I growled and turned walking away. "Avery, wait!" I heard Ethan's frantic voice behind me, but I didn't

26: Please! Stay With Me.

Nathaniel I watched intently as the prosecutors took the stage to question the Montgomerys. Finally, justice will be served. I was glad that everything was working perfectly just the way we had planned it, I tilted my head to search for Avery, I wanted to see the reaction on her face but I watched as she walked out of the hall, I wanted to go after her, perhaps everything was too much for her. I halted after taking my first step, I shouldn’t disturb her and she wouldn’t like us being in an open place together, she wouldn’t want anyone to see us together, so I tore my eyes from the door and focused on the victory dancing in front of me. But before the prosecutors could go any further, a sudden gunshot echoed through the hall. The crowd erupted into chaos, I was begging shocked. I hadn’t expected a sudden gunshot out of nowhere. I was suddenly scared hoping no one was going to hurt Avery. I need to find her! I need to take her out of this messy place. "Avery!" I yelled, frantically

27: Getting a babysitter

AveryI slowly opened my eyes, blinking away the haze. The environment was quite different and I started panicking when I remembered what happened, I was shot in the chest, I quickly glanced at my chest and noticed I was wrapped in a bandage and then I turned to observe where I was. The first thing I saw was Nathaniel's peaceful face, his features relaxed in sleep, he held my hand as he slumped on the floor sleeping peacefully, my heart skipped a beat as I watched his relaxed features. His hair was mussed, falling across his forehead in soft waves. I reached out, my fingers trembling, and gently brushed the strands back. His skin was smooth, and inviting. It felt dreamy watching him this close and I couldn’t understand why my heart was beating so fast. Perhaps it was because I just survived a near-death experience. Nathaniel's eyelashes suddenly fluttered, and I quickly withdrew my hand, not wanting to wake him and at the same time I didn’t want him to know I had been watching hi

28: A Glimp

Avery I glared at Nathaniel, my heart racing with frustration. His gaze was on me and he refused to look away, not a lovely gaze… a hard try-me kind of gaze, his voice was firm and obviously leaving no room for argument. I opened my mouth to talk but each time I ended up closing it right back. "You can't do this," I protested, trying to keep my voice steady, but my anger and desperation seeped through. "I won't be trapped here. You have no right to tell me where and where not to stay Nathaniel! Don’t cross your boundaries!” Nathaniel's expression remained unyielding, his eyes flashed as his jaw hardened and he moved a bit closer, his breath fanning my face and my breath hitched, we were just a few inches away from our lips touching."I can," he said calmly, his deep voice sending shivers down my spine. "And I will. You're not leaving my sight, Avery. Not now, not ever. I have the right to make a decision too the moment you decided to involve me in this, so you got to sit back and l

29: Find Her

“Why us there no news! Why is there no news of her death!” She screamed and bit her fingers. Sasha's anger erupted like a volcano, consuming her entire being. She stormed into her room, slamming the door behind her. The sound of shattering glass filled the air as she hurled vases against the wall. Her wardrobe was next, she ripped her clothes from their places and threw them away, and a primal scream tore from her mouth. The sound waves resonated through the hallway. Papers flew off her desk, scattered pages fluttering like wounded birds. Her bedspread was yanked off, revealing the rumpled sheets beneath.Sasha's rampage continued, fueled by rage. She overturned her dresser, sending makeup and jewelry crashing to the floor. The room, once a sanctuary, was now a war zone.One of the maids, Maria, rushed in, trying to calm her down. "Miss Sasha, please! Stop!"Maria tried to intervene, but Sasha pushed her away. "Get out! Leave me alone! Who gave you permission to tell me to stop? I a

30: Charity Event

NathanielI stood by Avery's bedside, watching her peaceful slumber. Her chest rose and fell with each gentle breath, a soothing sight that calmed my racing thoughts. How could anyone think about hurting someone like her? She is a calm person and never causes trouble, how could hatred bore into someone's heart so deep that they could think about hurting her? The more I watched her the more the feeling of protecting her grew rapidly in me, I need to make sure she is fine, I need to make the world a much better place for her to live. Her sudden stir halted my thoughts and I glanced at her once more. "Make sure she wants for nothing," I instructed the maids, stationed outside her room. "If she needs anything, don't hesitate to inform me.""Yes, sir," they chimed in unison.I turned to Dr. Lee, who had been attending to Avery's injuries. "Keep a close eye on her. I want daily reports on her progress.""Of course, Mr. Nathaniel," Dr. Lee replied. "I'll also conduct a thorough examination
