CLARA

At the office where I relaxed, my thoughts raced again. Ever since my marriage to the woman, it felt like I was a thief hiding a piece of gold from its owner so that I wouldn't be caught. This applied to the fact that I wasn't legally married to Eleanor even though it looked like it was legal.

A sigh ran out of my mouth for the umpteenth time and I heaved another sigh, sitting up on the chair as I thought about what to do for the woman I am married to.

She was still a nursing mother and I understood that, but she also needed to have a job.

Something to do when she was finally ready to work and as the case was, I didn't have the slightest idea what that would be—which caused a sigh running out of my mouth.

Just as I was thinking, my phone beeped.

Looking at the screen of the phone, I discovered a message from my bank. An investor had finally made the payments we've been waiting for all these while and from the look of things, we would finally get on with the real deal.

  • Breaking The Rules For My Star Hockey Boyfriend    Chapter 58

    NORAThere was a feeling that came with knowing someone was fighting battles on my behalf. Maybe it wasn't completely mine but at the same time, it was on my behalf because as soon as Victoria did what she was going to do—perfectly, I'd not need to be a stranger to my family. In fact, they would have no choice but to beg me. A smile came on my countenance at the thought of it. The cigarette in my hand was diminishing and I dropped it on the platter before it burned me. “Yes.” The feeling was a good one and there was me who got on my feet to get water while I wondered what exactly Victoria would do. Why should I bother? She said she had it covered and I believed that she did. She needed something from this cause and would work hard towards getting it. Would she not?Catching up with the dining section, I took a seat while wondering what would go into my mouth on this day. Somehow, I couldn't help but hate weekends like this but what could I do? It was yet another day to leave the h

    NORAIn the fancy restaurant, I was seated on one of the chairs while waiting for the woman, Victoria, to finally arrive. According to her, she would make it before the end of the next hour and there was me who was more than willing to wait. Why wouldn't I wait? I moped at the table where I was seated once again, heaving a sigh while I struggled to not be as frustrated as I thought that I should be. My phone beeped again. Who the fuck was it this time around? Staring at the screen of the device right before me, I didn't hesitate to snatch the phone from the table in a hurry. My hand clicked on the button and I placed the device in my ear the very next moment. “Hello, Mrs. Victoria. What is happening?” “Hello, Rhett,” she sounded, innocently like she didn't know she was wasting my time. “My car just stopped here.” She announced while automatically, I adjusted on the chair and looked around, taking away the grimace on my face and replacing it with a smile. “I'll be there in a bit.

    ROWAN It's been weeks since the last confrontation, or rather since I was disowned by a man who should care about me. Not just him but my brother as well. I still needed to do something, even though I wasn't sure of what I wanted to do. As I placed the cigarette remains on the platter, I heaved a sigh. The kind that showed how frustrated I am and would be for a long time if something was not done about it. Standing on my feet, I reached the closet where a towel was snatched. At least, before anything else, I needed to take a bath. My legs, once more and as usual, led me into the bathroom where I took my bath, and by the time I had come out, it looked like I had an idea. Although I wasn't sure about it and should look for something else to use against Raymond. As the case may be, there was no way I could prove all my accusations right without evidence. Just like Grandfather asked. “Shit!” Hitting my hand on the strong wall, I pushed open the door of my room, leading my way throu

    CLARA My jaw dropped at that very moment. “Wh—what did you say?” I found myself stuttering, unready to believe the most false piece of information about Andrew I would ever hear. I know. I know we needed to have leverage over him, but lying against him in this way was not acceptable. Not a little bit. “What did you say, Matthew?” Again, I looked before looking at Raymond, who was shocked, not also knowing what to say. “I am telling you the truth, ma'am,” I let out. “I've made my searches and this is what I could discover. I don't expect you to believe me but this is the truth. One thing I'm sure about is the fact that Andrew Hoover is into illegal activities. It has to be more than one but for now, I know it to be just one.” “Oh my God.” “Are you okay?” That was Raymond asking. He met my gaze and I looked away, shaking my head. “Are you sure about this piece of information, Matthew? You know you don't have to make this thing up. If you're yet to have any information about that

    NORA“What is it?” The look on her face said it all. There was a problem, or maybe not an exact problem but something had gone wrong. “Whose call was that?” “Matthew,” she let out. “He says he has something for us.”I looked at Rachel. “Thank you for having us, Rachel. My wife and I need to be somewhere.” I let out and took the child from her. “Let's get going then.” Once again, as if we weren't contracted couples—we walked through the hallway hand in hand. “Did he say anything at all?” I asked when we reached the elevator. “What do you think he has to say?” I clicked on the button and the machine began to move. “I don't know,” she looked at me. “I wish I had asked him what it was.” She looked away, then looked back at me just to ask if I was comfortable holding the baby. Of course, I was. But what mattered to me at that point was getting her home. Safely. This way, a call will be placed to Matthew who would make it to the house and this way, he could let us know about his d
