CHAPTER 99

ZYLIAH’S POV

They glanced at each other, at Sayge, then shifted those topaz-blue eyes my way, watching closely.

"Why did you leave us?"

"Do you not want us anymore?"

"We cried every night for you."

"Daddy said you were gone forever."

"Great-grandma said you'll come see us someday."

"Grandpa said you still love us, but you're dealing with something."

"Aunt Natalie said you're still healing from the accident."

"Yes, so did Aunt Delia."

The more they talked and barraged me with questions, the more guilt I felt. Tears welled, and unable to control them, they flowed down my face.

"You used to love us."

"Buy us gifts and anything we want."

"I still have that drum set you bought for me."

"Me too. I have that basketball set. But we don't play it anymore because you're not here."

The sadness from the last statement was my undoing. I pulled them to me and hugged them both tightly, sobbing quietly.

"Daddy said you're back to stay," one of them whispered.

    CHAPTER 118ZYLIAH'S POVI ran out of there. Away from the pediatric wing. Away from the doctor's office where Fynn was. I found the bathroom and sat on one of the stalls, bawling my eyes out.The pain was too much. The echo of his words—'whore,' 'baby factory'—clawed at me from the inside. I understood his anger, but to reduce me to that? It was a cruelty I hadn't known he possessed.I didn't know how long I stayed there. But when my phone started to trill, I knew it would be Fynn. I quickly washed my face, wiped it, and headed for the doctor's office.There he was, at the entrance, looking worried as his eyes searched everywhere for me, his phone pressed to his ear. My phone rang again; he turned and saw me.He gave a sigh of relief. "Where have you been? I've been looking all over for you.""I had to use the bathroom," I answered disinterestedly, trying to avoid his gaze that was intently observing mine."You wasted an awful lot of time in there," he said, leading me to the car we'

    CHAPTER 117ZYLIAH'S POV"The baby is sound and healthy. You and your husband have nothing to fear," the doctor assured.I sat there, not really paying attention to whatever the doctor and Fynn were saying.Fynn was all big smiles and huge grins, clearly happy that all of this was working in his favor."Baby, did you hear the doctor? He said all is fine. We'll welcome our baby girl soon." He didn't care if it was a boy or a girl; he was just happy to be an expectant father.His father, not so much. But Fynn didn't care. All he could talk about was me and the baby. Only it wasn't going to ever work out between us. Fynn seemed real. Like he'd realized his mistakes and was doing everything, desperately, to make up for it.But it was too late for him."Are you okay? You're not saying anything." His smile dimmed.I managed a smile and nodded. "Yeah, I'm good. Will you please keep talking to the doctor while I stretch my legs some? I need fresh air.""Fresh air is good," the doctor agreed.

    CHAPTER 116MARTINO'S POV"Yes. The branch in Sydney.""The buyers are very much interested in that one, but they want to be reassured that they'll be getting the original certificate from the owner of Grymtel Tech." The realtor guy who I'd been connected with in Australia informed me."Everything is signed. They'll get the certificate and every other document as soon as I get the alert," I assured."Alright, I'll let them know."The call ended.A big satisfied grin spread across my lips as I dropped the telephone back to its cradle. I stared at the mountain of documents before me.These were the documents for all of Sayge's companies in and out of the country. I would start selling them off one after the other. It was better than trying to head Grymtel as CEO.No, Sayge was smart. That could go south for me. Selling was the best, and holy cow! I knew how much I'd get by selling the entire Grymtel chain.I never realized he even had hotels and clubs. What a business guru; too bad he w

    CHAPTER 115VICTORIA'S POVWatching Sabrina's pathetic sobbing session grated on my last nerve. I'd raised her to be strong, and that was all she had been. I'd introduced the idea of her taking Fynn from Zyliah, and I couldn't regret it because at the time, it was the best decision. I wanted a good life for her. One she wouldn't have to suffer. Well, it would seem that had lasted...for six years. Everything had come crumbling, not just on her, but on me too. She'd lost it with Fynn, and I with Anthony. But I was going to ensure we got it right back because we deserved everything. I didn't come this far with my daughter only for us to meet with a bad end.If Anthony wouldn't take me back, I didn't need him. He was no more important to me than Sabrina's biological father had been. But one thing was clear: I wasn't going to be the poor, divorced loser. As for Sabrina, she'd made a choice, and I could only support her. She wanted love. She wanted Fynn. I'd help her get him back into h

    CHAPTER 114SABRINA'S POV"That bitch!" I cried bitterly the moment I entered the hotel room my mom and I shared.It was a big room that harbored two beds. She slept in one while I occupied the other. We didn't have any permanent shelter yet.We'd been sleeping in this hotel for the past months, hoping I could change my husband's mind."Who?" My mom raised her head from her phone.The television was airing one of my favorite family sitcoms, but I wasn't in the mood to watch. I was filled with anger. Pain. Sadness."Who else if not the stupid daughter of that man you married?" I grabbed the bottle of whiskey I'd left on the table and took a glass and took them with me to my bed.I poured myself a drink and gulped greedily, needing the sharp kick of alcohol to subdue the many emotions I was feeling."Spit it out, Sabrina. What did she do now?" Mom eyed me coolly. “I thought it was Fynn you went to see?""Yes." Memories of what had happened earlier today flashed into my mind. Tears burne

    CHAPTER 113ZYLIAH'S POVThe drive back home was mostly silent. Fynn tried making small talk, but my responses were vague and curt."Why are you moody? Is it because of Sayge?" he asked, suspicion lurking in his tone.I immediately sat up, shaking my head so he wouldn't suspect. "No," I replied with conviction ringing in my voice. "Why would you think that, Fynn? I'm just tired, that's all. I thought you'd understand this."The tension in his shoulders eased. “I'm sorry, baby,” he said, his voice softening. “I just thought for a moment there that you..." He paused and took a deep breath. "You know what? Just forget it. I'm sorry. I trust that you won't hurt me or do anything that'll ruin our marriage. Right?"His eyes searched mine for a beat too long, as if waiting for me to flinch.I gave a small nod. "Right."He reached across for my hand and squeezed affectionately, passing me a charming smile. "You look amazing being pregnant."I forced a thin smile. “Do I?”"Absolutely so," he a
