Victor POV

My father quickly regained his foothold.

He faced me and started to justify his actions.

“She’s a trespasser. She shouldn’t be here.” He shouted, finger pointing angrily at Pepper.

It almost grazed her face, so I shoved his hand off.

“Touch her and you’ll regret it. Hurt her, and I will make you pack your bags this instant.” I threatened.

My father shook his head, piercing me with an incredulous look.

“I did not know what she did to you. You were never like this, Victor. This woman bewitched you. You had Maggie, but you threw her off.” My father said angrily.

“You abandoned your family for this worthless woman!” Father spats out.

I smirked.

“You know that was a lie! Maggie was never my woman!”

I shook my head. A mocking smile played on my lips.

I can’t believe how thick-skinned my father could be. How lies could easily come out of his mouth.

Until now, he had the temerity of foisting off on me the responsibility for Maggie and her son when it should have been his.

  • BEYOND GOODBYE: Take Me Back EX WIFE    Chapter 151. Unexpected Turn of Events

    Pepper POV"I wanted to date you," Victor admitted when his laughter died down.​A frown creased my forehead when I heard this.​"At this hour?" I asked in disbelief after looking at my watch. It was past midnight. Almost two in the morning.​I should be tired from the event. Then, I had to rush here. Oddly enough, I didn't.​Victor looked tired, but there seemed to be excitement in the way his eyes crinkled at the corners when he smiled at me.​"I don't want to go home yet. I want to spend alone time with you." He admitted.​Truthfully, I understand how he felt because I felt the same way.​"The hotel is still open. We can stay for an hour or two. We don't get to have time to ourselves. We have been busy with work, and when we are at home, the kids are always with us."​My eyes squinted sharply at him.​"Are you complaining? Your children endured four years of their lives without a father. If they tend to hog your attention, that is because they missed having a father. They made do

  • BEYOND GOODBYE: Take Me Back EX WIFE    Chapter 150. Never in a Competition

    Pepper POV​Victor's body shook while he held me in his arms.​I could feel the restraint in how he held me. He was trying to control his embrace so as not to crush me.​Unfortunately, it was still tight for my comfort.Besides, I still feel a little miffed.​He expelled a shaky breath, dispelling all negative thoughts from my head.​"I am sorry about earlier. I had to go, but I kept my promise. I won you." He said smugly when I pushed at his chest because I felt drowned in his massive chest. ​I shook my head to belie his claim, smiling awkwardly at him.​”Technically, you didn't." I corrected.​Victor’s sharp intake of breath contrasted with the horror on his face.​It was funny to watch his arrogance stripped from him. Slowly, a tinge of red spreads across his face in embarrassment.​"Jeremy won. You did not sign the pledge form before you left." My lips twitched while I explained to let the sting out.​Originally, I wanted to wring Victor's neck. How can he humiliate me in front

    Victor POV“We’ll inform you of the results, Mr. Gunner. Thank you.” The NTSB chief stood.We were in the conference room for a closed-door meeting with the NTSB, accompanied by my assistant, Matthew, head of security Ben, and legal counsel Tony Spence.They worked quickly. Immediately after the crash, they began interrogating everyone involved. Even the aircraft mechanics were investigated.My father kept calling my phone, wanting to be included in the meeting, but I did not allow him entry. I am sure by now that he was already frothing at the mouth with rage.“We can’t leave things to chance. Everyone’s a suspect until cleared,” I told Ben.The authorities already informed us that an engine malfunction was the reason for the crash.The plane had taken off from the airport when the crash happened.“Good thing we invested in pilot training. He mitigated the crash,” Tony said.Gunner Airlines’ pilots were trained best in defensive take off and landing.“Apart from bruises and damage to

    Pepper POVThe ride to Gunner Holdings, Inc. felt like forever as I sat quietly on the front passenger seat of Jeremy’s car.I was glad when Jeremy did not attempt to start a conversation with me because right now, I don’t think I would be a good conversationalist with my mind most occupied by Victor.I still tried calling him, but his phone was still busy.Jeremy changed gears when Victor’s building came into view. We spotted a small crowd outside holding a picket.Their placards were raised and their voices were loud as they cried for entry.Jeremy turned left to enter the main access to the building, but was advised against parking.“I am sorry, we have full parking right now.” The attendant told us.“Is dropping off allowed?” Jeremy asked.The attendant immediately recognized Jeremy as the actor and hesitated. “Do you have an appointment, Mr. Quinn?” He averred.“I need to see Victor,” I told him, butting in.The attendant ignored me. His attention was all on Jeremy.“He’s my ex-h

    Pepper POVI was on tenterhooks while the bid continued to go back and forth between Victor and Jeremy.My chest expanded as I held it in due to the tension I was feeling.“One hundred and ten million dollars!” The emcee announced Jeremy’s counterbid to Victor’s one million, and my breath hitched.Victor and I never discussed his finances, but one hundred million dollars is a lot of money, especially with his father pressuring him at Gunner Holdings, Inc.Samuel said Victor recently bought shares from a trusted investor, spending millions. Now, this.“One hundred fifty million dollars!” Victor’s voice rang out.
