Chapter 31: Valerie Ambers

SERENA’S POVI had been on dates with Landon. Might it be as best friends or as lovers, I did not really mind. His condition wasn’t a new or even a strange event for me. I had been seen with him multiple times, too. If I wasn’t mistaken, I thought there had been a published article about us being seen leaving a hotel. Goodness. My mom even thought that I was sleeping with him after we broke up. “I didn’t know you had an issue with that woman. You don’t usually do this, Serena. What did the woman do?” Landon asked, his eyes narrowing. There was no glint of judgment on his face, but I could tell he was dying to know what was happening. I acted nice toward Aerah yesterday, so he was probably confused. “You know that I lost my baby, right? You are also aware that my ex-husband and his family were the reason why I lost my child,” I started. Landon knew everything about my past, and I was sure he would understand why was I doing this. “Of course. I know everything about that, Serena. I w

Chapter 32: Almost a Fight?

SERENA’S POV I thought I needed to breathe fresh air. We would not be able to stop my mother if she really wanted to go here. Well, it was okay, but the things she might do would surely direct our plans to another path. Our mother was kind, but she was not the type of person who would please people so that she could look like the bigger person. She liked to do things her own way… may it be good or not. “What am I gonna do, Miranda? We can’t stop my mother, and we would not be able to control Aerah and Geraldine’s mouths either. This would be chaos.” I rested my face on my palm, appearing problematic. Mom was currently in Spain right now, living her best life in one of our houses there. My mother loved to work, so she probably was working there even though we told her to take a break. She said that there was another reason why she would go here… I wonder what could that be. It was probably for work again. That reason alone would not give us the ability to let her stay in Spain. “M

Chapter 33: Fired

GRAY’S POVMy jaw clenched as I watched Serena and Mr. Mitchell walk away from us. What the fuck is that man doing here? Visiting? Since when did Serena Ambers become a cripple? As far as I could remember, he wasn’t needed in my company right now. “U-Uhm… Mr. Moore? Aerah is already waiting for me at the parking. I’m gonna have to go now.”I snapped back to reality when I heard Aerah’s friend’s tiny voice. I did not know what her name was… or maybe I forgot about it when my sister told me. I honestly did not give a fuck. She seemed nice unlike Aerah’s other friends who knew nothing but to spend their parents’ money and fool around with men. “You can go now,” I told her, nodding my head. My eyes were still stuck on the hallway where I last saw the image of Serena and Mr. Mitchell walking away. That man fucking pissed me off, and I thought my presence was doing the same thing to him. Mr. Mitchell wasn’t like that when we met, so I probably offended him during our negotiation. Tsh. I

34: Bruises

SERENA’S POV “Oh, gosh! Do I really have to apologize for that? He was the one who was in the wrong,” I spoke to myself as I walked down the hallway. Landon just left, and Miranda advised me to apologize for what I had said to Gray a while ago.Well, not necessarily apologize, but I had to show that we were okay despite what happened earlier. I almost forgot that I had a goal to gain his trust and make him fall in love with me. I took a deep breath and faced the door of Gray’s office, ready to knock. Is he still with Aerah’s blonde friend? I wonder if Hazel Brown was inside, too. “Why the fuck does it matter to you? I have told you a thousand times that I want you to stay away from my business! Do your job as my secretary and leave my personal life alone!”Gray’s loud voice from inside the room almost made me jump on where was I standing. I was sure I wasn’t the only one who heard it, as employees who were passing by his office halted, too. What the hell is happening inside? “So yo

35: Forgiveness? I Don’t Think So!

GRAY’S POVSerena was hurt badly. Now, whether my mother liked it or not, Hazel Brown would not have a chance to work here again. What she did was against our policy. Physical abuse toward any employees who worked here would have consequences.“I have interviewed a few applicants even before I fired Ms. Brown. I had been planning to do this for a while now so I wouldn’t have a hard time looking for her replacement once she’s gone,” I told Ms. Rowan, Serena’s loyal secretary. We were currently inside the vice president’s office, watching Serena’s bruises get treated by the medic.“I don’t understand where that woman got her hatred toward my boss. Ms. Ambers wasn’t doing anything at all…” she stated, her forehead knotted.I remained silent and only watched Serena sitting on the couch, her eyes still red due to crying. She must have felt so hurt and embarrassed. A lot of employees were looking at her while Hazel Brown attacked her. I clenched my fist in irritation. Some people were near

36: Progess

SERENA’S POV I still could not understand where he was coming from. Every board member had the right to have visitors anytime, for business or personal visits, as long as they could fulfill their job well even without Gray knowing. What the hell is his beef with Landon and he hated the man so much? I would never understand him. I had to lie to Gray that I could understand him just so the conversation could end. I had done my part today. I thought I did well in gaining everyone’s sympathy… especially Gray who even followed me in my office even though he knew damn well that he wasn’t needed there. We were currently in the car, and our driver sending us home. I had to go home earlier because of what happened. That was what Gray wanted, too. He seemed concerned about me, but I refused to believe every kindness he was showing Serena Ambers. He failed to do kindness for his wife then, and it was just hard to believe that he could be concerned for someone when he could not even do it bef

37: Witness and Model

SERENA’S POV My heart felt like it was coming out of my ribcage. I sat on the couch in haste, my full attention now focused on my sister. Kaihly was sitting in front of me, her face serious as she looked at me. “Him? Where did you find him?” I inquired, my eyes starting to get teary. How could I not? We had been looking for witnesses that could help us for years. Kaihly was a computer geek, but even she had a hard time looking for the person who had access to the CCTV cameras at the time. It all disappeared right after the accident as if someone asked to delete them. “Yes. I finally got the records of the employees who worked in that neighborhood almost three years ago. The man said he’s willing to tell us everything as long as we would pay him great amo—” “How much does he need? Pay him millions if that’s what he wants. I need to know who wanted to kill me and my baby.” I had been waiting for this for so long. My team had a hard time looking for any evidence that seemed

Chapter 38: Dumbfounded

SERENA’S POV I found myself locking the door of my room right after clicking the green button, answering Gray’s call. It had not even an hour since I arrived home, yet he was bothering me again. Taking a deep breath, I placed the phone on my ear. “Yes, Mr. Moore?” I greeted, my voice low to appear weak. I had to pretend that I was the victim even if we were not face to face right now. “How are you feeling?” he asked, not even greeting me with a hi or hello. His background was filled with silence, and I could only hear his breaths and the sound of his air conditioner. Is he home already? Strange. It was still too early to go home for a CEO like him. “M-My bruises are still hurting. I have put an ointment already, though…” I faked a cough with a low voice, still appearing weak. My cuts and bruises were hurting, but I knew to myself that I was only exaggerating myself. I could hear Gray taking a deep breath from the other line, making me grin in silence. Are you worried, Gray? Or i

Chapter 39: Jealousy? Probably Not.

SERENA’S POV “Weird.” That was all I could say as I stared at my cellphone screen. What did I do wrong and he suddenly ended the call? It wasn’t like I still wanted to talk to him. It just felt like I did something that made him act that way. Gray Moore never ended the call first ever since he got my number from my secretary. Hmm… something was fishy. What the hell is wrong with that man? Is that because of my joke that was supposed to be funny? “I don’t know, Jane. Why don’t you just stop thinking about him? You have a long day tomorrow,” I talked to myself, remembering the board meeting that I set for the partnership between Landon’s company and the Moore Estates. Landon would see me tomorrow, and I wondered if Gray and he would have tension between them just like the last time. I hoped they would not. I hoped Gray would consider how weak I would be tomorrow. Weak, my ass. Another day and another pretending in front of those bastards. Psh, how I wish Geraldine Moore

Chapter 40: Special Treatment

SERENA’S POV I could feel Landon’s hands tightening on my waist as if my ex-husband’s presence bothered him. This was what I was preventing from happening. Gray and Landon being in the same room without my presence would result in no good. “Mr. Moore,” I called, smiling. Landon took his hands off me and faced the man who just come. Gray, on the other hand, had his eyes focused on me now, seemingly scanning every part of my body. “And what consequences did you give that woman? I have heard that your secretary isn’t the only one who abused and embarrassed Serena. Your sister and your mother were involved, too, yet they haven’t received any punishment from you,” Landon remarked, his tone low and serious. Damn. The meeting hadn’t even started yet and they were on the verge of fighting already. My body’s strength would not be able to go in between them. “Mr. Mitchell, I treat every member of the Moore Estates with equal rights… especially to their well-being. Ms. Ambers and my fami
