ZARA

Last night has been replaying in my head all day. I tried to stay focused in the office but Hazel's question, and me almost spilling the beans kept on ravaging my mind.

I have tried numerous ways to push back the thoughts but nothing seems to work. I have to be focused today, I need to be focused today.

I'm presenting the first part of my new policy to the shareholders today, and I need to nail it.

My eyes drifted to my empty desk. I don't even have a picture of Hazel on it. I can expose her for Monica, and her father to use as bait for me.

My phone's ringtone brought me back to reality. I checked on who the caller was, but it was an unregistered number.

But something about it looked familiar. In a second I went through my purse looking for the card Maria had given to me last night.

I got it out, and checked both numbers. It was exactly the same, Matthew was calling me. It felt like the whole place stood still.

What am I going to say?

    ZARAI exhaled as I watched Matthew walk out of the courthouse with his security team around him, blocking the paparazzi access to him. I just told him I loved him. After years of anger, desire and passion between us. I finally said those words and honestly it felt good, really good.“Our men,” Vic said, standing beside me as Matthew and Evans walked out of the exit door.“Hmmm,” I muttered.“But did I read your lips right,” she said and I turned to her with my eyes widened. “You said it to Matthew, didn't you?”“Yes, I did,” I sighed. “I said I love you to Matthew.”“Hmmmm,” she hugged me, giggling. “How do you feel?”“Free,” I said. “It was like something lifted from me and I feel like I can take over the world.”“That’s what happens when you finally let go of the fear and embrace whatever comes your way.”“Speaking of,” we turned as the door of the courtroom opened and one by one everyone walked in.“Yeah, it's time to win this case no matter what,” I said, extending my hands for

  • Billionaire's Rekindling Love   143!The Promise I Shouldn't Make!

    MATTHEWZara kissed me on the lips one more time before walking out of the conference room. I didn't want to go. I wanted her in my arms where she would be safe. Where she won't be eyeballed by Alberta, Ronnie and their cohorts. But there is nothing I was going to tell her she would listen to. She wants to be in this fight, hell, she needs to have this fight with Ronnie and he is going to regret ever hurting her.Evans nodded at me and I walked towards him. “Are we watching the trial here?” He asked, pointing at the mini TV already on.“No, we are going to be in the courtroom,” I said, walking towards the door but he stopped me.“Howard might be in that room,” he said and I sighed, placing my hands in my pocket.“I'm not going to hide from Howard Dewitt, Evans,” I said to him. “He already knows I'm the one behind his seized illegal shipment and he already had me beaten up. What's the worst he can do?”“Have you killed,” Evans said and I chuckled.“Well, with you taking care of my se

  • Billionaire's Rekindling Love   142!Use The Noise As An Anchor!

    ZARAI walked away from the reporters, despite their questioning. My security team and the Cops in the courthouse were able to keep them at bayWalking through the entrance of the courthouse I saw Claire standing just outside of the security check point. I went through security and met up with her. “How's your first day going as a full-time Lawyer and part-time Assistant?”“Exciting,” she giggled. “I mean in just ten minutes of arriving in the courthouse my boss is trending already,” she said, handing her phone with a video of my press conference.“It's just a video,” I gave her phone back to her. “It doesn't necessarily mean I'm trending.”“It has over a million views and rising,” she said and I stopped walking. “Wait, what?!” I exclaimed. Claire was a bit ahead of me so she walked back. “I just got here,” I shudder with my fingers shaking.“Hey,” he held my hand standing in front of me. “Close your eyes and use the noise around you as an anchor.”I didn't argue with her. I followe

  • Billionaire's Rekindling Love   141!Formidable As I Am!

    ZARAI stood in front of the small mirror in my bedroom. The bigger one has been taken down due to my moving out of my apartment into Matthew's mansion.Looking at myself in the mirror, my blue shoulder sharp gown fitted me like it was just made for me. My red heels made the color of the gown pop out and I could feel my confidence level emitting from me. It's over the chat and I know I can only have it that way. If I'm not emitting confidence, then the people I'm working with or working for won't.And they need to know that I have got their back no matter what. Early in the morning I woke up to take a run around my estate and had some breathing exercises done.I'm saying no to panic attacks today or anything that will make Alberta think she has the winning hand.“Mama, I'm ready,”I heard Hazel's voice and smiled. I picked up my bag and walked out of the bedroom.Ever since I told her we will be staying with her father she has been on her best behavior.I know I said I didn't want to

  • Billionaire's Rekindling Love   140!Maybe I Care About You!

    ZARAI kept looking at Matthew expecting him to say something to deny the obvious suspension in my eyes.“I'm okay, Zara. You didn't have to come,” he said and I shook my head holding back my tears.“What do you mean?” I asked him. “You were in an accident, I should be here.”He sighed and avoided my eyes. Subtly, confirming my suspicion. “You don't have to be here. Go be with Hazel, before this news gets to her.“Why will the news of your accident get to Hazel? She's just seven years old,” I chuckled.“I don't know,” he shrugged. “News travels like a wide fire,” he was still not looking at me.“What are you not telling me, Matthew?” I asked and then he looked at me.“Why do you care?” He got up, shoving me slightly to the side.“Why wouldn't I care?” I asked him. He didn't give a response, instead he paced around the room in pain.“I mean you didn't care about telling me you didn't want to marry me,” he said and I clicked my tongue.“That's different and you know it,” I said, sharpl

I batted my lashes multiple times and looked at Vic and Krystal who had worried looks on their faces.“I'm here,” I muttered and Krystal scoffed.“No, you are not,” she said. “Do you know how long we have been calling you?” She asked.“A while,” I whispered, not looking at either of them.“Zara, if you mis
