Elliot's POVMy eyes widened in shock when I saw what was playing on the screen. Just a minute ago it had been the presentation that I had worked hard on to make sure I got this deal and suddenly it was a clip of me with Stacy, one of my ex talents and how I was trying to persuade her to sleep with me in order for her to start getting paid big checks and I cringed as I watched myself. Where had the video come out from and what the hell was going on?I looked around and everyone was staring from the screen to me and then back at the screen with shock on their faces. I wanted the ground to open up and swallow me.Who must have done this?My mind raced as I tried to comprehend the situation. Who could have done this to me? I thought I had covered my tracks, I thought I had deleted all evidence of my wrongdoings. But clearly, I was wrong.I scanned the room, trying to find the person responsible for this betrayal but everyone in the room looked too stunned to speak, meaning that they were
Rayne's POVI booked us a private restaurant and arranged everything for our private celebration. We had achieved our plan and now it was just to sit back and watch as Elliot and Star Struck in general start to crash gradually but surely.Everyone at the office was invited and Kenneth with his team too got an invite. We had all contributed in making it a success so we had to celebrate together to call in more wins like that for the future."Thank you so much for believing my story and going to this great length to get justice for me" Emily whispered by my side and I sighed"You don't need to thank me for anything. I was just doing the right thing and you were hundred percent worth the stress it took to get you your justice""Oh Rayne. Sometimes I think that you're not aware of just how pure your heart is"I felt the tears start to gather in my eyes and I smiled"That's a very kind thing of you to say. Thank you and besides what are families for right?"She pulled me into a tight hug"
Rayne's POVI slept on the suggestion of a vacation and I woke up thinking that it was actually a very brilliant idea. I had worked hard for the back months and I had finally achieved something that I had set my heart and mind completely to so it was only right that I celebrated it in a big way.Zara had already set breakfast on the table by the time I got down and not long after, Nathan who I had left sleeping came down, freshly showered and looking as good as usual in his business suit.He kissed me on the cheek and sat down for breakfast"So I'm hoping you've thought about our conversation yesterday night and now see reason why we have to go on this vacation right?" He asked while he chewed and I frowned at him for that"Hey, no pressure or anything," I said, laughing and rolling my eyes. "But yes, I did think about it, and I agree. A vacation sounds amazing right about now."Nathan grinned, his eyes sparkling with excitement. "I knew you'd see it my way. So, I've already started m
Rayne's POVAfter much contemplation and searching online for the best place to visit, I finally settled for a beach resort in Morocco because it looked so beautiful on the site that I just had to see it in person and experience it in real life."Morocco sounds like a fun idea and if you think it's the best place then it is" Nathan placed a small kiss on my lips before he left for work. I smiled to myself, pleased that he actually valued my opinion."Leo, aren't you ready yet?" I called out to Leo who was still not out of his room. We were going to his school in order to take an excuse for him to leave school so he can come on the vacation with us and just as Ethan had planned, we were going with the sickness option and telling them that Leo has to be checked out because he had a rare sickness. It was crazy but we had no other choice "Coming, Mummy!" Leo shouted back, finally coming down the stairs with his backpack on and a big smile on his face.I chuckled and shook my head. "You'r
Nathan's POVWe finished packing quicker than expected and then we decided to just spend some time together before going to bed. Leo had dosed off on my laps and Rayne and I spent the night talking while we took the ice cream that she had brought home.I watched her as she told me about her childhood and how she misses her father and I just stared at her, unable to wrap my head around how she could be this beautiful.This trip was for her to get some rest but most importantly, it was for her to be away from here when the problem that was right at her door breaks in. Before she came home that night after her party to celebrate her win against Elliot. I had gotten a call from my private investigator and he had told me that Elliott didn't plan on just accepting defeat and I wasn't surprised but what he said next surprised me so much, I couldn't say anything for a whole minute.Rayne's most top investors were planning pulling out of her company and it was because of the smear campaign Ell
Rayne's POVI had slept throughout the trip and had only woken up when Nathan shook me gently to say that we were at the Moroccan airport. Leo had fallen asleep too and he didn't wake up when we arrived instead he slept until were already booked into the little beautiful house I chose at the resort. I had not wanted a hotel room so I got the house instead. The trip had been long and tiring mostly because I had slept throughout but I was glad that we were finally here, in this beautiful Moroccan resort. The beauty of it was breathtaking.When I had seen it online, I had just known it was the right house but seeing it in real time it was magnificent. The living room had such a cozy vibe to it, the tiles were colorful and the furnitures screamed royalty. This was exactly what we needed - a home away from home.I had just finished taking a shower and gotten dressed when I heard Leo stretch and yawn, finally waking up from his long sleep. "Where are we, Mummy?" he asked, rubbing his eyes w
Rayne's POVThe scorching sun beat down on us while we waited for our guide to get to us. I had found this cool offer on one of the restaurants brochure about camel riding and I had convinced Nathan that we needed to try it out and he had immediately agreed because Leo also got excited about it too.From the brochure, I saw that we were going to ride through the Atlas Mountains so I had gone to the local market near our house and bought some sunglasses and scarves too to protect our eyes and face from the sand particles."Mummy, I look cool with this glasses. Just like Batman" Leo posed like he was about to take off into the sky and I ruffled his hair and laughed. "Yes you do my Batman. Now we have to head out before we run late" I adjusted his clothes and took his hand in mine to go meet his father who was waiting for us outside.We walked out of the house and found Nathan waiting for us, a huge smile appearing on his face when he saw looking all stylish and it turned into a full bl
Rayne's POVNathan had disconnected our WiFi and I was pissed. Yesterday I had wanted to log into my laptop and do some work when I noticed that the WiFi was not connecting and after trying I gave up only to bring it up later that evening when he returned from his stroll with Leo."I was trying to connect to the WiFi but it wasn't connecting, maybe you should check if it okay" I was standing in front of the mirror, applying my face mask but when he didn't reply, I turned to see him just sitting on the bed and reading a book"I'm talking to you Nathan. Didn't you hear what I said?" He took his time to look up from the book to me " I heard you Rayne. I disconnected it."Maybe it was the way he said it that irritated me "What do you mean you disconnected it? Why did you do that?"He sighed. "We're on vacation, remember? No work allowed. You need to relax and unwind, not be stuck to your laptop."I huffed, my frustration rising. "But I had some important things to attend to today""Impo
