Charlotte's POV

I was shaken by Drake's actions at the event. He left me speechless in so many ways I couldn't even explain.

There was something new to him this time and it was... drawing me to him. I don't believe in voodoo but I could note the changes and the effect it had on me.

Sawyer called later that night, well after I was able to power my phone, he called nonstop but I didn't accept any of his calls until the next morning.

As you suspected, his call woke me up the next morning.

"What's the matter? Why have you been ignoring my calls Charlotte?" He asked the minute I picked up the call.

"What do you want?" I asked, giving him aura for aura.

He could sense the anger and malice in my voice and realized that he needed to calm down.

"You got me worried Babe, your line wasn't going through the whole of last night. I went to pick you up but you were not at the venue so I got scared." He explained, his voice calmer.

"What time did you go to pick me up?" I asked, not convinced by his

  • After Divorce, My Secretary Wife Becomes Rival Boss    Chapter 0217

    Drake's POV And my throat tightened as I entered the living room. I had already lost too much in my life. If she stripped this from me too, would I recover from it?Before I could even take another step, Mia came running out from the kitchen. Her hands were wet, probably from rinsing vegetables or washing her hands, and she wiped them hastily on the side of her gown.“Where did you go? I was calling after you but you didn't even stop to acknowledge me!” she exclaimed, her voice sharp with the familiar edge of accusation. “Where have you been? Where did you go without even telling me anything? Do you think it is okay to just leave the house like that without telling me anything?!”The questions tumbled from her lips like bullets, one after another.Normally, I would respond. Normally, I would get drawn into her spiral of interrogations and excuses. But not today. Not when I held the little product that would determine if this relationship were to continue.Not when the outcome I was c

    Drake's POV I staggered back to the living room, a gasp escaped from my lips as my hands dragged down my face."Is this real?" I didn't know what to feel. I was happy that she left on her own but at the same time, she was carrying my child. I couldn't just give that up.I made that mistake once already and even though Mia wasn't one who would make one do something for her, for the sake of the child in her belly, I couldn't just let it go.I rubbed my head with my hand and shook my feet uncontrollably.Unable to sit anymore, I rose to my feet and went to my room. I grabbed my phone and scrolled through my contacts.Maybe she went to get something. I reasoned and tried to call her. The line went silent for the first few seconds then the service provider's voice spoke up, telling me that the number I was trying to reach was not available.I groaned with frustration and tried it again but it was the same thing."Did she run out on me again?" I asked aloud."Who are you talking to?" A voi

    Drake's POV After Charlotte left, I too found my way to my car and drove home.The drive home was silent, though my head wasn’t. Thoughts churned in my head.Charlotte’s tired face haunted me. The way her voice had cracked when she admitted maybe Sawyer had never been there. I hated the helplessness in her eyes, and I hated even more that I couldn’t change it.By the time I pulled into the driveway, it was close to midnight. The mansion was dark, silent, the glow from the windows a sharp contrast to the heaviness in my chest. I killed the engine and sat there for a moment, gripping the wheel until my knuckles whitened. I knew Mia would be waiting. I could already feel the storm brewing.Sure enough, when I stepped inside, she was there.Mia sat on the couch in the living room, one hand resting dramatically on her stomach, the other draped across the armrest like a queen waiting to scold her subject. Her expression was sharp, her lips curved in displeasure.“You’re finally back,” she

    Drake's POV Charlotte walked out on me without a heads up but I knew I couldn't stop her. She was hurt and frustrated about not being able to do anything even when she saw Sawyer.I had a strong feeling that Mia had a hand in it somehow but I couldn't do anything about it either."Drake?" I heard my name from the second door; the one after the one I came out of.I turned around to see Mia walking to me like someone who was thirty-two weeks pregnant."What were you discussing with her?" She asked as she got closer."Did you know that Sawyer was going to be here today?" I asked instead, my face was straight."What?""Did you purposely step in her way so that she wouldn't be able to go after him?" I asked again and her brows furrowed in confusion and it spread in realization."Wait, was that the reason she was running around like she got an emergency call?" Mia sounded amused.My face tightened. Mia didn't see it as anything serious and that was irritating."Do you really find that funn

    Charlotte's POV "What is it Charlotte?" Drake called out as he followed me out to the empty yard.I dragged a palm down my face and rubbed my fingers on my temple."What is it?" He asked again, louder this time and even more concerned this time around."Shit! I missed him! I missed him!" I exclaimed with grief."Who? Who are you talking about? Who did you miss?""Sawyer. I missed him just now. I saw him inside the hall just when they called on the both of us. He was standing not far from me but he retreated and ran away when he saw himself on the screen and he knew I was following him so he ran even more.""He followed this door out of the hall and I wanted to follow him out but Mia blocked my way." I explained and Drake paused for some seconds."Mia? Just now?" He asked like he hadn't heard what I explained."Yes. She blocked my way and for some flimsy excuse.""Are you sure it's Sawyer you saw?" He asked again and his questions were beginning to get on my nerves"Yes. If it were no

    Charlotte's POV "Charlotte!" Drake called after me but there was no way I was turning around.I didn't come for more drama. And I didn't want to be involved in their drama. Mia was mischievous. She could have hidden camera men or even videographers positioned in specific places to take pictures and record videos that would later go viral.If she had begun to spread fake news and ensure that the news got to me, then she was planning something even bigger."Don't go after her!" I also heard Mia's sharp voice holding him back and honestly, I could care less.I strutted to the front stage and for some reason, the crowd began to cheer. I hadn't been following up on the host and what he was saying so I was lost but I tried not to act like it.I dropped my empty glass on a tray and picked up another glass of wine."As we all know, this is an event that was organized by the government to acknowledge those CEO's who have worked for them and delivered exceptionally and the event won't start pr
