"They already tried emptying her accounts" I tell my father over the chat.
He scratched his grey bearded face and let out a sigh, he was stressed enough after Camila's accident and now to find out they tried to empty her bank accounts twice, there was no way they could do that no matter what or who they get help from.
That was the best thing about being a Clair, is that nothing you have can be accessed easily, no matter what resources the person uses to take you down.
"Everything is secure" he replies kind of relieved, "are you going to the funeral?" he asks with a smile.
"Are you?" I ask tilting my head, he gave me a look before we both burst out l

The night before Camila's accident Elijah's P.O.V "For some reason I believe you two are up to something" Dad says striding over to my bed. I don't look up at him for a second, I've tried staying out of his way countless times, I don't feel the need anymore to please him. "If we were up to something, do you think I'd be here and not with my wife?" I ask. "Your wife!?" he shouts making me look up at him, "since when has she been your wife, this is all a game Elijah, I've told you many times not to mix business with pleasure" he snares. "She's been my wife since that day we had a big meaningless wedding, she's been my wife since we signed our lives over to each other, she's been my wife for months, so mixing business with pleasure was never an issue for me, her needs are my top priority now, it was your own fault for putting me in this mess" I replied getting up to face him.

He looked great except the scowl on his face and his ruffled hair, he wore casual black jeans and a light blue t-shirt, he's been walking around with a bottle of champagne for the last week. "Why are you looking at me like that?" Emilio asks taking a seat in one of the empty chairs at my desk. "You know why I'm looking at you like this Emilio" I answer, "you've been wallowing in your feelings for a week now, I'm waiting on you to tell me what's going on". He takes in a deep breath, puts the bottle to his head and just drinks. I watch him, there's nothing I can do to stop him from feeling however he's feeling, mainly because I have no idea what the problem even is. "I'm fighting the urge to tell you, so I'm drinking it away" he says with his eyes closed and n

Camila's P.O.V "Congratulations" Mrs Porter says shaking my hand. I nod with a small smile at her, she's just a sweet old polite lady, there was no reason to be rude toward her. "Thank you"I replied with a soft voice, almost tearing up. "He's a real keeper" she says, motioning to my now newly wedded husband. My eyes watched as he greeted everyone, laughing with them as they congratulated him, he's just as fake as everyone esle around here. "That he is" I agreed, placing my hand on her forearm. I saw my father's eyes as they roamed over me, I looked away immediately, feeling a pound in my heart, knowing he was watching my every move. "Will you excuse me?" I ask Mrs Porter, just as she searched my disoriented image. "Of course dear, I understand how overbearing this must be for you" she replies patting my hand. With a smile, I waled out and onto the balcony, the cool air wel

Camila's P.O.V"Oh, look who decided to finally show up!", exclaimed my mother, once I stepped foot into the sitting room.I fought the urge to roll my eyes, seeing heads turn to look in my direction. My eyes caught every snare from the members of my family, but I played it off as if it was nothing and put my bags on the floor."What're those?" Quinn asks pointing to the two the bags."Wedding gifts, from Josh" I replied shrugging my shoulders.That was enough to keep her uninterested for as long as it could. It was just 1:30 p.m, I couldn't control the lunch meeting at the tavern, Josh and I had a lot of catching up to do."How is Josh?" Mom asks adjusting herself where she sat, "haven't seen him around in a while" she finished playing as if she cared."He was in Fiji, on business" I replied nodding my head, letting the answer in the air.There was a heavy silence in the room until
