Annabel's POV After an hour at the shopping mall, we moved to a beauty spa where this stranger spent thousands just to get my skin rejuvenated and my hair washed and properly treated. While staring at my reflection in the mirror, I glanced at him answering the umpteenth call since we walked into the spa. I wondered if he is some kind of CEO. He seems wealthy and influential, and the likes of him is what I need to get my revenge against Scott and his father. "Ready?" he asked, stopping few meters away and I nodded. Surprisingly, he gave me his arm and I placed my hand in it as we walked out together and back into his car. After some minutes drive, we stopped in front of a mansion. I did not get out immediately and he didn't either. "I appreciate the kind gesture," I spoke breaking the silence, "-but my lawyer has things sorted out for me. Once my mother's properties have been transferred, you wouldn't need to go out of your way to keep helping me." "I'm not going out of my w

Scott's POV I had to act non-chalant for the sake of my daughter. I had no choice but to divorce Annabel and agree to a marriage to Michelle.When Annabel was thrown out of the house, I ordered a man from a private source to watch over her, give her a house to stay and make sure to keep her safe. However, since then I have not had the opportunity to call him.In order not to attract my father's attention, I must keep away from anything that could get him suspicious. For this reason, I stuck to following Michelle around, getting pre-wedding photos and purchasing whatever she thinks is nice.Getting her hair fixed, I stepped outside and quickly pulled out my phone to call the guard I'd placed in charge of Annabel."Well? Is she okay?" I asked the moment the call went through.The voice on the other end took few seconds to reply. When it eventually did, it was muffled voices that I couldn't quite place."Speak to me properly, will you?!" I shouted into the phone."I couldn't find her,"

Scott's POV"Myron Wilson?" My dad shrugged and tossed me another file, "What does it matter if you've never heard the name? After the agreement, he'll become a puppet to me."I shook my head and shut Myron's file, my dad is fond of looking down on others. I could care less, I just need to find Annabel. "The second file contains all of the properties willed to Annabel," he explained, "Once he signs it, he'll be in control however we'll still own it."I shut the file as well and rose from the couch."When will I get to see my daughter?" I asked, "I did all you asked, I want my daughter back now!""Don't pressure me, Scott," he warned, "Your daughter is safe and until I am sure you deserve her, I'll give her to you.For all I know, Annabel is still in the city and you're still in love with her." Without waiting another second, he left the office and slammed the door behind him.* * *Annabel's POVMiss Donna woke me up the next morning. Extremely tired from the events of days ago, I

Annabel's POV"If you would agree to marry me," I paused at that moment and he withdrew from the embrace at the same time. Slipping his hands into his pocket, he studied my expression."Don't get me wrong," he explained, "I'm not taking advantage of your situation, Annabel. I just don't want people wagging their tongues and-""I totally understand," I cut him off, "I'm sorry but, marriage isn't what I need right now. I'll be visiting an old friend today and see if I can move in with her, I don't want to keep being a burden.""You're not a burden, Annabel. I already told you, I'm only helping you get your revenge as I'll be getting mine as well. Staying alone isn't the best option. You'll be endangering your friend by doing that."However I remained adamant, "I don't think I'd be in danger so long as my location wouldn't be revealed. I appreciate you looking after my wellbeing but I think I can take it on from here."I couldn't tell his expression because of the mask on his face. Aft

Annabel's POVI was surprised to hear Scott say that. It felt like a dream but after blinking multiple times, I knew it wasn't. "I don't believe you," I said, shaking my head."Annabel please," he came close, holding my arm, "Just come with me and I promise I'll make you believe me."I remained hesitant, thinking of the many possibilities that could occur. What if this was just a trap to lure me to Mr. Davis? What if Scott is just pretending? Is it really wise for me to forget how Scott ditched me at the court and follow him now?"The snow is increasing," he said, breaking me out of my thought, "Annabel please come with me."He took my wrist and slowly pulled me towards his car. I did not object and entered into the car. As Scott began to drive across the street, I caught sight of a familiar car parked by the side of the road, several meters from Beatrice's house.It looked oddly familiar and I thought it to be that strange man's car. However, when Scott drove past it the person in i

Scott's POV I was super happy that Annabel listened to me and decided to trust me again. I couldn't explain how I felt. Dad already promised to bring my daughter to me today. Once I have little Samantha in my arms I would return back to Annabel and together we would go to the airport where we would disappear from New York and begin a new life. I parked my car and stepped into the port where I got the tickets under an hour and hid it carefully in the compartment area of my car. I was driving to the company when Michelle's call came through. She thundered, "Scott, where are you?!" "At the company, what's the problem?" I answered, trying as hard as I could to muffle the annoyance in my voice. "You didn't come home yesterday, how could you be at the office?" "I-" "Besides, tomorrow is our wedding. Why would Dad ask you to go to the company?? Didn't you guys already put someone in charge??" "I spent the night at the office and it wasn't my intention," I replied quietly, "As

Scott's POV"No, no, no!" I shouted as I watched the woman in the video about to push my little daughter into the pool."No, please!" I continued to beg.Ignoring my plea, my father asked, "Will you marry Michelle?" "Yes, yes I will, just get..get my daughter away from the pool!""Take her into the house," he ordered the woman who picked my daughter up and walked into the house.I breathed a sigh of relief."See? That's what you get when you decide to go against me, Scott." my father said, "Now, you have a wedding coming up."Grinning he added, "Let's go get you prepared."He snapped his fingers at the men that had beaten me up and they picked up and dragged me into the car.

Annabel's POVHow does he know I'm here? I wondered.As if he could hear my thought, he answered, "I tracked your location from your phone.""..." I was speechless."My driver told me that you didn't get into your friend's house. I became worried when Beatrice said you weren't at her place."I still did not know what to say. He asked, "Can I come in?"After a short hesitation, I moved aside for him to come in and closed the door behind him. He walked to the middle of the living room, looking around the place and then he turned to me."You got the place yourself?"I shook my head, "It's Scott's."His silence after that told me that he didn't like what he heard."You stay here with your," he paused and finished, "Ex-husband?"His tone was filled with disgust.He continued, "The man who turned a blind eye on you when you needed him the most? The man who could have helped your father in killing your daughter, for all we know?""Scott is not what you think he is," I spoke quietly, not in

Annabel's POVI opened the door and replied, "To the wedding."He looked pleased and said to me, "I'll gladly take you there." In a minute, we were on our way to the wedding. I sat quietly in the car and let the wind blow on my face. Each yard away, I kept on hoping that it isn't true. That something happened and Scott couldn't come home but he wasn't marrying Michelle while making me wait for him and after telling me that he wanted me back.Close to the church, there were several beautiful and expensive cars parked in a convoy and the front of the church was empty with the door locked.I still had hope. Maybe the wedding wasn't going on.I stepped out of the car without waiting for the masked man to park properly. He followed suit and stopped me."You can't go in," he said, "Without an invitation card."I paused to think."You said you'll help me," I said to him, "I know there's something you can do to make me get in.""Besides, I just want the church doors open.
