CHAPTER 81

Selene's POV. "What? You told him that?" Julie's eyes widened in shock as though she wasn't the one who advised me to go ahead with my decision. Now she was pretending like everything was fine and I was only overreacting. "Of course, you told me to do that, didn't you? And this is not even a decision that I was forced into taking. " I had so many things on my mind, but one of them was to remain independent, and I was going to achieve that no matter what. Julie reached for my hand and stroked it softly in reassurance. "Okay, are you kidding me right now? I know that you might be trying to prove that you are not feeling it but that's not even true. I have every right to believe that you miss him as much as he does. Both of you are only just being too stubborn to tell each other the truth." I snorted, kicking away her advice. "You do not know anything about my life and I would like for it to remain that way. I don't care about what anyone wants to think or do about me as long as my

CHAPTER 82

Jakob's POV.Fighting over a woman hadn't ever been my strongest forte, but now that she was bringing it back, I guess I had no choice but to accept it so that I didn't sound like a wicked fellow. If you asked me how I truly felt, I guess I just wanted to take a break."Right this minute, I felt like something was off but just didn't know what exactly it was. One of the things that came to mind was the fact that I had a lot of things to do but didn't have the resources to carry them out. I had instinctively shied away from granting her divorce because that was not in any way part of my agenda, at least not any time soon.Mia's visit had a lot of inflections in my life and the only thing I wanted right now was to have a bit of peace and quiet. The last thing I wanted was a court case especially when I was chasing a deal over the coast. The door opened, and the very subject of my thoughts walked in with a smile on her face, which I didn't find pretty attractive at that moment. This is

CHAPTER 83

Selene's POV. My walk along the island went as smoothly as it could come and I was happy that I was finally getting all the attention that I needed for my brand to thrive better than expected from anyone. If people thought that I was going to bow to whatever expectations then they would receive a shock of their lives. According to my lawyer he said I didn't have the right to quit the marriage just yet because according to the contract I signed it was supposed to last for a year before this solution could take place. Courtesy of my parents. I would never understand why they ever thought it was proper to take charge of my life when they knew that I had a lot of things going on for myself. My first plan was to ring them but decided against it when I realized that they were just trying their best to get themselves to have a slice of the national cake. This wasn't their fault in any way, instead it was mine who went ahead to think that he could ever change his ways. Once a playboy, al

CHAPTER 84

Selene's POV.The rush to my father's hospital bed was a huge one and I couldn't help but begin to panic incessantly. No one could tell me that this was not diabolical. I hadn't ever experienced such insane panic attacks. My mother walked in with tears streaming down her eyes. "I didn't know in any way that he was going to go out. He told me he just wanted to get something down the street, and I believed him stupidly. How could I have been so foolish?" She tapped her forehead almost looking like she was about to fall. I looked away for a minute before deciding to go in. "Why don't we just allow the doctors to examine him and give us feedback before we jump right into conclusions?" I asked being the force of reason. She looked at me for a minute before hugging me tightly, losing her composure instantly. I understood how it felt to see someone you care about on their deathbed. My only joy was the fact that he was able to contact me so that I could reach out to people who truly cared

CHAPTER 85

Selene's POV. "Your dad might probably not make it out alive. But you can spend the rest of his time with him making sure that he doesn't lack anything. I believe that is something that you can do, right?" I found myself nodding, but that was a totally completely different thing. I would never have imagined in my life that I would be hearing that my father would be dying and I needed to act like I was okay. Deep down, my head was spinning violently, and I just wanted to be alone for as long as I could. "Are you serious?" "Unfortunately yes. I know that this comes as a shock to a lot of people, but we think that the cancer has progressed to a stage where we just need to take things slowly and not bombard his system with medications so that things do not get out of hand. You are eligible to seek a second opinion so that we know what to do next." The doctor spoke. Surprisingly, my mother did not react the way I felt she would, making me a bit worried. If there was something common

CHAPTER 86

Selene's POV. Taking over my parents' company was, in fact, a herculean task. Getting people to understand my perspective about a lot of things was even more tactical than having to explain anything else. My mother and I had a few issues with the previous morning, but I decided to wave my mind off it. It was something that we needed to iron out. "I believe that everyone here is aware of the fact that I am the new director and I need all hands on deck," I announced as soon as the board gathered round I had a lot of things to deal with, one of which was the usual. Getting them to know my rules and regulations. "I am aware that Julie is my mom's assistant. You are going to be working closely with me, and I need us to be on the same page, especially regarding the taxation effect. I need to know how money has been spent the past few weeks and how you can do things better." I went straight to the point. Beating around the bush had never helped anyone and it was just pointless to conti

CHAPTER 87

Jakob's pov."Miss Selene Kensington has stepped up as the CEO of her father's company. Rumors have it that he has been undergoing a severe attack the past few weeks and that requires that she makes such a huge decision. A few people speculate that this might end up being a great decision." The reporter said on the TV. I flicked the remote control switching it off, not wanting to have any part in such news. I would rather remain oblivious to whatever was going on than getting involved with something that I had absolutely no idea of. Was that why she had declined all my calls and messages? I had thought that she was just being emotional and angry but didn't know that she was facing a midlife crisis and was stepping up into her father's position. Once again, a lesson never to judge people without hearing their sides of the story. The sound of heels clicking downstairs had me rolling my eyes. Mia was probably going for one party or the other and deemed it fit not to bother me. "I wa

CHAPTER 88

Selene's POV. "Wow, thank you for this presentation. We would not know what to do if you had not come in the time you did." My assistant said as the rest of my staff broke into applause. I enjoyed how much they decided to be attentive especially after everything that had happened. I didn't want to be in whatever makes with them but I just needed to play along. I have researched long and hard for the latest innovation that will move my company forward."We still have to meet with Mr. Kensington. Do you have a conversation with them and see how they can help out in the importation while we remain the sole distributor." My assistant said again. After the reshuffling I ended up with another young lady who just finished high School and was looking for a job as a clerk. The applause died down as they all gazed at me, probably waiting for my response so they would know what to do next. I only stared at her for a minute before speaking. "According to what I have here with me, it is not an

CHAPTER 89

Selene's POV. Swamped with work, I didn't even have the time nor the energy to think about anything related to fighting or any of that sort. I just wanted to be on my own and that was what I was doing. It was profitable, to say the least, because now I had a clear focus on my goals and was going at them. I made a lot of sales and revolutions but still didn't forget my primary purpose. One of the reasons that Logan was able to convince me otherwise was because of my love for the job and not necessarily because I wanted his love. I picked up my phone and contacted one of my agents who had worked for me a long time ago when I was still trying to find my foot in the world and was trying my hands at more modeling. "So what exactly are you looking for? I know that people might want to keep against your new initiative because it is something they are not used to but that shouldn't even be the reason you would stop whatever you are doing." Jake said through the receiver making me laugh.

CHAPTER 90

Selene's pov."Hell, no, what the hell is actually going on here? Do you truly expect me to be happy with whatever it is that you are trying to shove down my throat?" I demanded from my mother, taking further steps backwards. I kind of understood the fact that she wanted us to come back together but she also had to realize that it would never be possible no matter how much she tried. I just wanted the best for myself and to take a deep breath. This was outrightly disrespectful. Jakob's eyes ran over my full length from head to toe as he kept on watching me carefully. "I know that this might come as a shock to you but that isn't sufficient reason and not for you to push away whatever it is that we have together." Jakob spoke.The last time I saw him, he was resolute with his decision about me not being with him. Now he was trying to pass on other information as though I was not in my right to be angry at whatever he was trying to do. I sincerely didn't bloody care about his words
