Melody’s POV

Kill?

My mind spun. Dorian smiled wryly. Beside me, Keal’s breath hitched in his throat.

No. I didn’t see how that was possible. Keal was tense and guarded. But he wasn’t a murderer.

“Don’t listen to him,” Lydia said, her voice light and airy. “He tends to fabricate the truth. Keal didn’t kill Celeste. It was…an unfortunate…accident. A tragedy, really.”

  • After Divorce, Billionaires Competed Over Me   Chapter 30: My New Executive Assistant

    Melody’s POVMy office was stunning. It was a corner office, with a gleaming cherry wood desk set against a floor to ceiling window that offered sweeping views of the city. To one side of the room was a lounge area, complete with a sofa, two oversized armchairs, and a coffee table. It also featured a coffee bar with my own personal expresso maker and mini fridge.“Will this do, Miss Wentworth?” Anthony asked, pushing his black rimmed glasses up onto the bridge of his nose. His tone was semi-sarcastic; he knew full well that the office was perfect.

The board member’s eyes tracked me as I crossed the room and took my place at the head of the table where Eleanor was standing.The mahogany table gleamed under the board room lights. An untouched plate of assorted donuts sat in the center of the table, and each board member had a cup of coffee placed in front of them.“Melody,” Eleanor said with a coy smile. “You’re right on time.”

    Melody’s POVKeal and I left the banquet sometime after midnight. Back at the estate, I kicked off my shoes while I stifled a yawn. I was looking forward to sinking into my bed for a good night’s sleep.In the foyer, the maids gathered our coats. Keal had been very quiet on the car ride home. I figured he was just tired, since it had been a long, eventful night. However, when I went to bid him good night, he grabbed my wrist.“Wait,” he said.

  • After Divorce, Billionaires Competed Over Me   Chapter 27: Super Hero Keal

    Dorian’s POVI’ve never known a mother’s love. My mother never loved me, never held me in her arms as a baby and felt her heart expand in that motherly way. She was distant and cold.Not as cold as my father though. Where my mother lacked a mother’s love for me, my father downright loathed me. And he reminded me of it often.He reminded me with his fists, with the sharp crack of a belt on my backside, with a shove into a wall.Some of my earliest memories involve my father beating me and my mother doing nothing to stop him. Is it any wonder that by the time I was eleven, I wished on every star at night that I would die.My grandfather Eldric was the only person who was ever kind to me. I never really understood why he was so kind to me. Not when I was younger. He treated me differently than all the cousins. He was warmer, softer.It wasn’t until I was a teenager that I learned the awful truth behind my grandfather’s kindness, my mother’s distance, and my father’s seething hatred of me

First Eleanor, with her snide remarks. Then Isabella, with her confusing behaviour. Did she want to be friends or not? One moment it seemed like it, but then the next she was snubbing me, claiming that I wasn’t good enough for Keal.And of course, then there was Adam and Lily.“Move,” I said firmly to Dorian.
