CHAPTER 81

ISABELLA'S POVAudrey was a huge thorn against my flesh and I knew that I had to get rid of her as fast as possible if I wanted to get what I wanted. She had tried to turn the tables against me with the case of the investors, and I couldn't be more grateful that Lucas wasn't as smart as I thought. He had believed me instead of her.I had underestimated her and I realized that she was right. If I wanted to get rid of her, I had to work smarter and not harder. I had to find a way to beat her at her own game.“What are we going to do about Audrey, Bella?” Kendall asked and I let out a frustrated sigh for the millionth time today.“If you ask me that question one more time, Kendall, I won't hesitate to send you out of my house. If I knew what to do, would I be pacing around like an idiot right now?” I replied in frustration and she looked hurt by my harsh words.“I'm sorry, I was just trying to help.” She replied and I ran my head through my hair in frustration.“If you really wanna help,

CHAPTER 82

AUDREY'S POVMy hands trembled as I stared at the pictures displayed on my phone screen and Claire came rushing toward me when she heard my scream.“Rey, are you alright? What's the matter? Why did you scream like that?” She asked in shock and I slowly glanced up at her as my body trembled lightly.“This… how is this possible?” I asked, my voice trembling as I spoke and gave my phone to Claire. The moment she saw what was displayed on the screen, she dropped the phone in shock as she turned to me.“Does this mean…”“Someone has been stalking me… Those pictures were taken today in hidden angles! In the hospital, at work… and a few minutes ago when I stood outside the house. No wonder I felt like I was being watched earlier. What should we do, Claire? Doesn't this mean Aiden is also in trouble?” I asked in worry as I shook her shoulders in terror and she held my hands to calm me down.“Calm down. Let's sort this out logically. If you're being stalked, we need to report this to the polic

CHAPTER 84

LUCAS' POVI was seething with anger. Isabella was sitting on my lap while she talked about irrelevant stuff but I wasn't interested in anything she was saying. All I could think of was Audrey leaving the company yesterday with Scott.She was always as stubborn as a mule, never listening to anything I told her. Does she find it refreshing to always defy my every word?“Babe? Are you listening to me? You look like you're zoning out.” Isabella pointed out and I let out a sigh as I rubbed my temples in annoyance.I desperately wanted to push her off me but what kind of man hates it when his fiancee is so close to him? What exactly is wrong with me? Why do I feel a certain kind of spark whenever I'm with Audrey, but not with Isabella?There was always this feeling of nostalgia, a feeling of deja vu whenever I stared into Audrey's eyes and I just couldn't place my finger on what I felt whenever she was near. It was driving me insane just to think about it.“Babe!” She called out again and

CHAPTER 84

AUDREY'S POVI couldn't control the tears that fell down my cheeks as I left Lucas' office and ran towards the restroom. My vision blurred as I walked up to the sink and washed my face with the flowing water from the tap.I had no idea that Lucas had always seen me as a slut or a whore. It was all my fault anyway, I was the one who decided to give in to him five years ago. If I hadn't… it wouldn't have gotten so bad…I walked backward until my back hit the wall and I slid down in agony as tears streamed down my face in torrents. He has said mean things to me, but this… this was the height of it. He hit me where I was most sensitive.I suddenly heard footsteps coming, and I immediately got up and hid in one of the stalls quietly. Their voices got closer and I realized that it was Isabella and Kendall who walked in.“I just saw Audrey run out of Lucas' office. What do you think happened?” I heard Kendall say and I placed my hand over my mouth to stop myself from breathing too loud.“Wha

CHAPTER 85

AUDREY'S POVMy eyes opened slowly when I felt someone pat my face gently with a wet towel. I glanced at the person to see that it was Scott and his expression was filled with worry.“Scott?” I called out, and his face immediately changed into that of relief as he helped me sit up, and I realized that we were in the ladies’ restroom.“Are you okay? How do you feel?” He asked in worry as he touched my forehead and I found myself staring at him for a while. He didn't mind sitting on the floor while taking care of me…“This is the ladies’ restroom, Scott. You could get in trouble for being here.” I said as I tried to get up and he helped me up in an instant.“I know, but only the ladies’ restroom had a towel. I had no choice. Besides, no one came in here, so it's safe.” He replied and I let out a sigh of relief as I looked around.“Come on, let's get out of here first,” I said to him as I grabbed his hand and we both walked out of the restroom to the reception.“What happened? Why did yo

CHAPTER 86

LUCAS' POVI watched helplessly as Audrey left my office after I asked her to work overtime. I could see it in the way she looked at me, she was beginning to hate me. And I know that I deserved it.I shouldn't have said such cruel and vile words to her earlier. I was directly pushing her into Scott's arms, and I couldn't help the fear that took over my heart when I thought of losing her.Making her work overtime wasn't to punish her… I wanted her to stay back so that I could take care of her. And also make amends because the guilt in my heart won't let me breathe.I let out a sigh as I ran my hand through my hair and glanced at the monitor in front of me. Why was I so jealous of Scott being close to Audrey? I already have a fiancee, and we should be getting married soon, but I can't seem to phantom why something in me wants Audrey.More than my employee… I want her as something else. Something closer. I want to be the one that drives her to work and back home. I want to be the one she

CHAPTER 88

LUCAS' POV“You feel something for her, don't you?” He asked and I felt every muscle in me grow stiff.“What the hell are you talking about?” I spat in anger and he chuckled before pulling my hands off his collar as he paced around.“You know exactly what I'm talking about, Lucas. I've never seen you act this way with any other employee; I've never seen you act this possessive, even with Isabella. You love her, don't you?” He asked with a raised brow and I let out a scoff of disbelief.I didn't want to believe he was right. He was making no damn sense.“Shut the fuck up, Scott. Don't just jump to conclusions so easily. You know nothing, so stop acting like you know me.” I spat and he chuckled lowly before he turned to look at me.“I think you're the one that knows nothing here. You know nothing about yourself or Audrey. You're such a damn fool. What would you gain in trying to play with Audrey? You already have a fiancee, one that you'll marry soon, and yet you keep giving her false h

CHAPTER 88

AUDREY'S POVI stared at Lucas as he helped me edit the documents that I should have finished up all day. Something in me wanted to tell him about the stalker but what was he gonna do about it? What if he doesn't believe me?“Why are you helping me? Shouldn't you be punishing me for doing my work so badly?” I mumbled softly and he glanced at me before returning his attention to the screen.“I'm not helping you. I'll simply assign you to work somewhere else. Moreover, everyone saw that you passed out earlier. If I don't help you, won't I be tagged as a bad CEO?” He replied with a nonchalant tone and I let out a sigh in exhaustion.“Thank you,” I said softly and he hummed in response as he continued to type. We sat in silence for the next few minutes, and my gaze kept returning to his face as I admired how good he looked when he was focused.“If you take a picture, I'm sure it'll last longer.” I heard him say and my face flushed in embarrassment as I turned away from him.“What are you

CHAPTER 89

AUDREY'S POV“What security guard? I didn't hire anyone to protect Aiden.”My heart stopped when I heard Claire's words and my legs immediately stopped moving as I turned around in alarm.“Then who was the man that stood outside his door? Oh no, Aiden is in trouble!” I panicked as I started to run back into the hospital only for Claire's laughter to stop me in my tracks.“Oh goodness, take a deep breath, Rey. I was just messing with you. I did hire him earlier today and his sole purpose is to be with Aiden 24/7. Relax,” She said and I collapsed on the floor as I tried to catch my breath.“Claire, I swear if I catch you, I'll rip all your hair out. How could you do that to me? I got so scared!” I said as relief washed over me and suddenly Lucas was beside me, his expression filled with worry.“Are you alright? Why are you on the floor? Where does it hurt?” He asked in a concerned tone and I could hear Claire humming in a teasing voice as he helped me up.“It's nothing… my legs suddenly

CHAPTER 90

ISABELLA'S POVLucas had left my house hours ago but I couldn't brush the sense of unease that filled me after his absence. The way he rushed out of the house made me feel that there was something amiss.The door of my room opened and Kendall stepped in with a worried expression as she came up to me with a small bag of medicine in her hands.“Are you alright? Lucas informed me that you were sick and that I should take care of you.” She said and I groaned before shaking my head in denial.“I'm not sick. I just said that so that Lucas could bring me home. I wanted him to stay with me but he still left me and returned back to work. What's so important at the damn office that he couldn't let it be to stay with me?” I complained, and she looked like she was thinking of something deeply as she sat beside me.“Everyone had left the office before I left except… Audrey. It seemed like she was sick because she was fast asleep when I left.” She explained and my eyes widened in shock as I shot ou
