Chapter: CHAPTER 33~ETHAN~“Why did you do it?”. I said to miss Sarah as I came out from the dark corner where I was standing. “Oh my goodness!!”. She jumped. She was frightened just as I wanted her to be. “Who.. wh.. ar..are..you?” She stuttered helplessly. “ I am your worst nightmare”. I said and laughed. “I hate repeating myself”. I said to her my voice was firm. She started looking around for help. “Do not bother, no one is coming”. “This root has no CCTV and you know that”. I explained to her and she trembled in fear. “Why did you poison her?”. I ask for second time. This time bringing out the knife in my pocket. “I..i.. didn't want to do it, she made me do it”. “please don't kill me”. She rushed through her words. “We are either going to do this the easy way or the hard way”. I said to her as I turned the knife in my hands. “Please spare me”. She began to cry. She pleaded with me. I enjoyed the sound of fear but I didn't have time. I needed to be home soon. “Speak now”. I said as I

Chapter: CHAPTER 32~ETHAN~Just as I had taught my mom and dad a lesson, this time I will teach doctor Harry and his wife never to mess with me again. **“Doctor please tell me how my wife is doing”. My dad pleaded with the doctor to know how my mom was doing. My dad might seem all tough on the outside but he was a weakling especially when it comes to matters involving my mom. I remember when I was about fourteen my mom got into an accident and she was unconscious for days. That was the first time I saw my dad break down and cry like a baby. It made me laugh. “Please stay calm sir, we are trying to make her stable”. The doctor said and excused himself. My dad was so worried that his hands were shaking. He didn't mind the blood all over his hand and suit. In an hour the doctor came out again. And my dad would have flown to him if he had wings to do so. “Doctor, how is my wife?”. He asks the doctor. “She is stable but-”. The doctor stops Midway with his statement. “Can we talk in my office sir?”.

Chapter: CHAPTER 31~ETHAN~My mom and I were so close that I didn't want to have another child and when I found out she was pregnant one day when she joyfully broke the news to my dad I realized she never loved me and she was pretending all those while because she had only me. “ I have an announcement.. my mom said and smiled that morning over breakfast. “What is it darling”. My dad asks “Tell us”. He added this time dropping the fork and knife in his hand back on his plate. She paused for a few seconds. She was having a rush of emotions. Going on honey. My dad said and turned to her, giving her all the attention. She gently picked out something from her bag. It was an envelope and she handed it over to my dad. I just sat looking at them. My dad was long slighted, so he used glasses. He picked up his glass case from the side of the table where he was sitting and put it on before opening the table. While my mom stood gently and smiled gently it was almost like she was about to cry. “You are pre

Fifteen years ago I was in Washington with my lovely mom and my dad. My mom was my everything, she was not just a mom to me, she was my best friend.

I have always done right by them and their best decision was to get rid of me by sending me to Italy on my own. “Mom please talk to dad. I pleaded with her.“ I don't want to go to Italy”.

Chapter: CHAPTER 29~ARYA~I could move a little better than before. And with the help of the doctor I was healing well. I needed to get back on my feet and get moving with my life. Although I badly needed some type of emotional support, I knew I wasn't going to get any from anyone. So I have learnt to be my own emotional supporter. I have been in the hospital for ten days and the only person who cared to come check on me was Madam ivory. She would come with some delicious meals she made. On the days she couldn't make it she would make sure to send me a comforting and caring text message. I have cried my tears dry and for every single day that passes I miss my pumpkin and venita. My mum has refused to come see me and all i got from her was a flower delivered to me by my step dad's secretary. “Good morning Mrs Arya”. My personal nurse Tiana walked into the room. “Good morning nurse Tiana”. I responded with a small smile. “I see you are up early today”. How are you feeling today?”. She smiled back a

Chapter: Chapter Eighteen: I’m In BetweenLogan’s POV I had some late night work to do at the office since tomorrow myself, Emily and two faced will be having our first shoot for the brand opening. Maybe I was giving myself an excuse and I was trying to overwork myself just so I would not have to see two faced in my sleep. I was getting tired of it and for some reason the dreams were getting better. The other night I knocked myself out hoping it would work and it didn’t. I only ended up suffering from a hangover. I wanted to be alone, so I sent my secretary and assistant home. It was over work hours and the building was quieter than it normally is. I stood at the window side of my office. The view was excellent. It used to be my late brother's office. Even if most people say a CEO should be at a bigger office, I didn’t mind. I loved the place since it makes me feel close to Marcus and it happens to be the last place I saw him. The glass of Scotch in my hand tasted better than it has in a while. I had to think of the bes

Chapter: Chapter Seventeen: A FriendEve’s POV I came back from my morning run. It wasn’t something I did often but it feels good when I do. I somehow ran into Mark and we decided to grab coffee together since he said he has some information for me. It happens that the fire outbreak wasn’t from the electrical room as the fire fighters suspected, it was from the underground storage house which was directly under the electrical room and that was why when the fire came to the surface the electrical room was the first place that got affected. It all made more sense now. I was glad we were getting closer to the issue. We were done drinking our coffee and we were about to leave when I got a text from my dad. He wanted to see me. I haven’t been able to see him for a while and this was the best opportunity. I didn't hesitate to tell him I would be coming around for breakfast. Since it was my old home, and it’s still my home I didn’t mind going there in my gym clothes. “You’ve forgotten about your old man huh?” My dad pulle

Chapter: Chapter Sixteen: Still RememberedLogan’s pov I saw the jar at the auction and I almost lost my mind or maybe it wasn't it, but I didn’t mind before spending a million dollars on it. It might just have been a normal jar to every other person, but to me it meant something special. It was the first gift I received from my late brother when we were still kids. We traveled down to the Asian region on a business trip with our parents. We went for a random street shopping but we ended up surprising each other with a gift and it happened to be the same extra jar. I remember how we laughed at each other’s taste and for the fact that we are in each other's minds. If men have a male soulmate I am sure he was mine. I walked up to the stage with Eve later on to give a quick speech before the actual partying began. The glam night might have been held for years and this is the second time I was attending it, but this time around because it was hosted by a friend. My gaze met with Eve’s. I must admit she looked really beau

Chapter: Chapter Fifteen: The Glam NightEve’s POV “Good day ladies and gentlemen, I welcome you all to the Tenth edition of The Glam Night.” The master of ceremonies announced as we were all seated. Everyone was dressed beautifully and the place was filled with beautiful colors matched together. After Logan came by my office earlier, I didn't ask any questions, I just followed him like he wanted. It was becoming a thing for our drives together to be quiet and awkward, and I was slowly getting used to it.Most husbands and wives would talk about how their day went and stuff going on, but with Logan I knew for sure I couldn’t do that. Thanks to Mark, the silence broke for a while when I received a call from him. I picked up on the second ring with hopes to get good news, but unfortunately the investigation wasn’t getting anywhere yet. I told him to make sure they leave no stone unturned, and the Mark I know will go the extra mile if he has to, just to get to the bottom of it, and that is why I trusted him to handle thin

Chapter: Chapter Fourteen: Ends MeetEve’s POV “Good morning Eve this is the document you ask for.” Mark handed me a file as I made my way into the building. “Thank you Mark.” I sent him a small smile as we took huge steps together toward the conference room. I have a thing for being punctual. After having my dinner last night, I put a call through to Mark and asked him to compile some documents which I would be proposing to each member of the board. And a few minutes after I was done talking to Mark, Logan came home. At first it looked like he was going to pass by like I wasn’t there but then he stopped and he told me that we would be going to an event by evening today. It was an event where top big business figures would be, and I had to show up with him to give our marriage and businesses a good name and make us look responsible. Although our conversations may have been short and simple and only about business, I was glad he wasn't ghosting me after all. He told me that we would be going for an event today but

Chapter: Chapter Thirteen: At The EdgeEve's POV I hit my bed with a thud. It was a really long day. I decided to take a long bath while reading my favorite novel. After the press conference, I told Mark to set a meeting with the board of directors tomorrow. A flashback of how people looked at me when the reporter accused me of lying my way into becoming Mr Arthur's daughter sent a shiver down my spine. I refused to answer the question I was asked, and I ended the press conference not because I was afraid of what people would say or think, but because people will always believe what they want to. If I try to explain or defend myself it will only make me look guilty. Arthur gave me an opportunity and I will never take it for granted. I will never stop proving to myself or to him how grateful I am. I signed heavily. I soaked myself deeply into the bathtub that was filled with warm water ,and buried my head in the water for a while. It was peaceful. I was feeling better after having my long hot bath. My head and my m
