Chapter 11 The Seductress

CHARLOTTE“Charlotte, what brings you by my room at this time of the night? Are you offering me some sort of transaction?”In truth, I liked how Nathan spoke to me, especially since it’d been years since I received such attention.From the tilt of his brows to the smirk playing on his lips, I could tell he found me desirable, and strangely, I reveled in that thought.After Liam and prison, any form of attention from the opposite sex was a wonder. But tonight, as I stood before Nathan, something strange took root within me.I tried shaking off the thoughts, but when I looked at him again, at his tall, muscular form, his beautiful eyes… shit!I lowered my eyes, flustered. Clearing my throat, I said in a rush. “I noticed you didn’t eat dinner, so I brought some for you.”He looked down at the tray in my hands but said nothing, so I continued. “It’s also a thank you meal for all the times you’ve helped me prove my innocence in this house. I never got to show my gratitude, and seeing as yo

Chapter 12 Nathan To The Rescue

CHARLOTTEToday felt like a storm I knew I had to brace myself for.We—I and Liam—were headed to the hospital… to visit Sophia.I originally wanted to refuse, but Liam threatened me with Charles, so here I was with him in the car's back seat.Nervously, I rubbed my palms together, reminding myself to take deep breaths every ten seconds.“Why does she want to see me, Liam?”“Because she asked.”“Why would she ask to see me of all people?”“Because Sophia is an angel from the sky. She still thinks of monsters like you even in pain.”I smiled sadistically, “The way you speak of me, you would think we weren’t married at some point.”He stared at me through the rearview mirror, “Of all my regrets, marrying you was my biggest one.”His words stung more than they should. “You know, even though you’ve hurt me to the point of no repair, I wouldn’t even say what you just said—especially to your face.”The car suddenly stopped, and I looked outside, realizing we had arrived at the hospital.“Get

Chapter 13 Nathan To The Rescue 2

NATHANI woke up this morning with the lingering taste of Charlotte’s cooking on my tongue and a smile I couldn’t wipe off.It was strange for me. Very strange.I tried to attribute my happiness to just the food. After all, it had been such a long time since I tasted anything, but deep down, I knew that wasn’t it.It was something else. It was her.So I decided to see her again this morning. I was going to thank her and then tell her I would help with whatever it was she wanted from me.I was going to give her a chance. Maybe in that way, I could repay the food gesture.But when I went downstairs, there was no sign of her. I asked the servants about her, and one told me she’d seen Charlotte leaving with Liam for the hospital.Why? I’d asked. Why would Charlotte follow her ex-husband to the hospital? She wasn’t sick, so why…?Then the maid mentioned that they’d gone to visit ‘Sophia Windsor,’ and just like that, I put two and two together.Sophia Windsor meant trouble for Charlotte. Sh

Chapter 14 Supporting Charlotte

NATHAN“What the hell? Are you crazy?” I hissed at Liam, who was breathing heavily.He was a few feet away from us, partly on the ground, having fallen down after missing his well-intended punch, and I could see the anger in his eyes.“You?” He spat, and at first, I thought he was talking to me, but his gaze wasn’t on me.It was on Charlotte, who still stood behind my back.Slowly, she stepped forward, her face pale as if she’d seen a ghost.“Liam, what are you doing here?”“What am I doing here?” His face turned red as he stood up and advanced towards her. “You dare ask me that?”“I…”“Shut the fuck up, you shameless woman. Oh goodness, you’re such a disgrace. You go about seducing men, and now you have set eyes on my half-brother. Such a slut! A wh…”“I’m not a slut!” Charlotte snapped angrily, her voice rising as she spoke again. “We are divorced, Liam. D.I.V.O.R.C.E.D.” She spelled the word out and used her fingers for added measure. “I no longer belong to you, so you have no righ

Chapter 15 Heartless Human

CHARLOTTE‘I am going to help Charlotte gain custody of her son back, no matter the cost.’These words echoed in my head over and over.Hearing them, words that I never would have expected to hear from Nathan Hamilton, made me feel as though I had finally been set free.It felt like a huge burden placed on my bones had been removed, and now I had more strength to fight for what was mine.Now, I could also hope.I opened my mouth to say something but closed it again because words failed me. I also didn’t want to say anything that would ruin this.Besides, a furious Liam still stood nearby, and I knew he wouldn’t hesitate to laugh if I spoke out of turn.But that wouldn’t stop me.I opened my mouth again, this time ready to show Nathan my gratitude, but just before I could, the shrill ringtone of a cell phone cut me off.It was his.Nathan took out the phone from his pocket and swiftly swiped the answer button. “Yes?” He asked into the receiver.A frown appeared on his face as he listen

Chapter 16 The Prank Alarm

CHARLOTTEA doctor approached me, standing beside the bed where I lay. He was peering at me with extreme concern.“Ms. Smith, did anyone declare you fit for this transplant?” He asked, and I shook my head no.“Well, that sums it up. We tested you just now, and from what I can see here…” He waved a paper in front of my face. “You are unfit for this operation.”I didn’t know whether to feel relieved or not. There was the lingering threat of Liam using Charles instead if I didn’t go through with this, and the reminder sent a chill through me.“I don’t even know why you were rushed here when the patient doesn’t need the bone marrow now.” The doctor spoke again, and my brows rose in surprise.“Excuse me?““Ms Sophia went into a temporary shock earlier, but she’s quite stable now. I learned she’d made a prank alarm, and her nurse took it quite seriously.”What the hell?!So Sophia had deliberately faked her condition so that I could be wheeled into surgery? Was this how much she wanted me d

Chapter 17 A Sibling Love

CHARLOTTE“Noah… wh…what happened to you?!” I asked, the words coming out in a jumble.He stepped back and tried to hide his arms, but I glared at him.“Talk to me.” I urged him.I was already feeling guilty for not noticing the wounds earlier, and I’ll be damned if I didn’t get to the root cause of whatever caused this bruise.“Oh, this?” He began to wave his hands while smiling—a fake smile actually.Again, the thing about Noah was he was a good liar.Straight-edged, without missing a single breath.The only way I knew how to catch him in the act was to see if he was looking at me while speaking. And now he wasn’t.“I got the bruises here. It was an accident. I was working on an unfamiliar car model, and some metal scrap came loose from one of the wheels. I was clumsy, I guess.” Noah laughed as if it was a joke.It was clearly not a joke. And like I’d guessed, he had lied to me.I pursed my lips. “Tell me the truth, Noah.”He looked at me now, and when I met his gaze, I saw somethin

Chapter 18 Help Me, I Help You

CHARLOTTESurprisingly, when I dialed Liam’s cell, the call went through, and he answered on the second ring.“Hello…” I started to say but was instantly cut off by loud music and laughter coming from the end of the phone.Was Liam at a party? I wondered.“Hello, Liam.” I managed to say again, but this time, the phone beeped, and the call disconnected.“What the…?!” I almost cursed, and Noah looked at me from across the dining table with concern.“What is it? Did Liam pick up the call?”“He did, but I…I…” I didn’t even know what to say. “I’ll call him again.”Noah nodded, but he didn’t stop watching me as I quickly dialed the number.The phone rang thrice, and when I thought he wouldn’t answer, the call went through.“Hello, Liam.”“Hello?” Instead of Liam, I heard an unfamiliar feminine voice. “Who… who… is… is this?” She sounded drunk and slurred her words.“I’m Charlotte. Liam’s ex-wife. Is…is he there?”I never said anything funny, but all of a sudden, she began to giggle. “Oh! Yo

Chapter 19 Knight In Shining Armor

CHARLOTTE‘You will help me destroy Nathan.’My brain froze.That was practically impossible.“What? I asked dumbly.“You heard me. I said…” He paused, still staggering towards me. When he got close, he leaned in, his breath reeking of alcohol and repeated smugly. “You will help me destroy Nathan’s ass, Charlotte.”“Whatever this is, you don’t actually mean it.”“Oh, yes, I do, ex-wife. I meant it when I said you’ll bring down that motherfucking son of a bitch.”I gasped.“But…but why?” I stammered.“And how is that supposed to be any of your concern.” Liam’s eyes flashed sinisterly. “You said you would do anything in exchange for my help, and this is what I want. It’s simple, no?”I wasn’t even referring to him asking me to do this impossible task. I wanted to know why he was hell-bent on destroying his half-brother.I’d lived with the Hamiltons, and while I knew the rivalry there, I never imagined Liam would take such an extremely selfish route.“So?” He sneered. “Are you going to c

Chapter 20 Revealing Secrets

NATHANBending Liam to my will wasn’t hard but this wasn’t about me.It was about the woman and child he’d trapped in a cell of his own making.I knew Liam had no intention of letting them out or granting them freedom. That was how wicked and selfish he was.Anger burned within me, but most importantly, pity. I pitied Charlotte and her son. And I shouldn’t.I shouldn’t have associated myself with her or her son, but despite telling myself I needed to stay away, something kept drawing me back like a magnet.It was as if she was calling me, begging me to rescue her.Even now, as I started the car’s ignition and began driving, I felt her gaze on me. I could tell she wanted to beg me for help.She hadn’t said a word yet, but I knew it.It wouldn’t be easy.I’d told her I would help get custody of her son back, and in return, she would be my business associate for God knows what, but those were just words.Getting back Charlotte’s freedom and that of her child required careful planning.Ho
