CHAPTER 73

ROB’S POV

The smell of burnt cigar filled the room as soon as I walked in. The study was always in its usual shape. Books neatly lined up on the shelf alongside more files and documents by the other corner.

The chandelier above cast dim lights under the finely polished wood with my father sitting behind it and a half glass of bourbon in hand.

“Robert,” he called calmly. “Good of you to honor my invite.”

Like I had a choice.

I shut the door behind me and found the closet chair to seat, mustering up every ounce of self control I could get. I already knew what this meeting was going to be.

Father hadn’t seemed to have changed since the last time we spoke physically except for the few streaks of grey hair that stood out visibly on one side of his buzz cut.

He watched the swirl of the amber liquid anytime he took a sip, before he turned to face me. “You had one job to do, Robert, and what did I get? An entire pile of mess.”

Rage clawed up my body, but I waited on him to f

    CHAPTER 79ISABELLE’S POV“Hold on, I need to pick this up.” I say over the phone to my lawyer. I narrowed my eyes to the phone to try to see the other person calling. I frowned. It was my agent, Edward. I hadn’t heard from him since the vogue cover shoot got cancelled a few months ago. Not even a check in message, which was odd. I swiped to answer. “Heyyy! Edward!” I purred. “It’s been what? two days? God I’ve missed you….”His slightly deep tone cut me off sharply. “Not now, Isabelle. We’ve got pressing issues.” He stated coldly. My stomach flipped. When he said ‘We’, did he mean us or just me alone?I managed to maintain that perky tone in my voice, even when I’d just been cut of rudely. “Is something wrong? Did anything crazy happen?” My legs move me back and forth across the table that still has Rob’s documents spread out. “We need to talk! I’m on my way to you now.”“Edward wait…” I tried to press, but he’d already hung up. He didn’t even let me ask anything else. What an

    CHAPTER 78ISABELLE’S POVI ran up to the room with tears dropping down my cheeks without warning. The weight of everything I just heard hung painfully in my chest. My heart was thudding so loudly I could barely hear anything else. I could barely manage to breathe even. I rushed to the bathroom, scavenging through drawers and cabinets until I finally found it. The small blue bottle fit perfectly between my fingers. The label was already wearing off from how much it had been in use. I popped the cap open and dropped two white and red pills down my throat. I leaned down to the sink to gulp down a little water. It had that cold metallic taste that made me quiver. The mirror caught my eye instantly. God I looked awful. My mascara was smudged from tears and my skin looked awfully pale. After a while I could feel my heart beating slower and my breathing was back to normal. Thanks to those pills. Rob’s words still failed to vanish from my head. How could they? When what he said came st

    CHAPTER 77ROB’S POVThe file landed on my desk with a quiet thud. “Here are the papers for the year’s asset liquidation.” My secretary said softly. I peered up. Totally perplexed by what she had just said. “What liquidation?”She blinked at me multiple times. “I…I thought you were informed sir.”I flipped open the files. Everything there looked foreign to me. Different approvals I was never briefed on. My fists clenched hard on the desk. “If I could just get your…..” she started to say before my gaze fell back on her. “Get out.” I said calmly as I tried to hold back my anger. She froze. Still confused. “I said get out!” My plan slammed into the edge of the table, knocking away the file that sat by the side. She turned around quickly. Her eyes were visible with fear as she managed to get the door open. My teeth gritted against my jaw. I paced across the room. My breath alternating between fast and slow. He was at it again. Martin. And I was definitely losing it. Just like he

    CHAPTER 76JENNA’S POVI didn’t open up the paper right away. On the drive home, Adrian still kept checking on me at intervals. “Are you okay?”“Did she hurt you?”And many more. For some reason he had something behind his worries, but I couldn’t quite place it. Adrian had gone downstairs to grab me tea, so I made use of my alone time. I didn’t even know why I was hiding the paper from him, but I knew fully well that if that lady wasn’t trying to pass a message, she wouldn’t have secretly shoved it in my palms. I unfolded the paper, even if it took me a painful extra seconds to get it fully straightened. “This is about Adrian, I’ll be at the park by 1pm Ice cream truck. B careful…”The writing looked rushed and sort of smudged. Almost like a warning. “We were out of charmomile so I got you jasmine instead,” Adrian walked in, turning to shut the door behind him. Quickly I shoved the paper into my top. The rough paper itched uncomfortably in between my boobs, but I endure

    CHAPTER 75JENNA’S POVThe first thing that clung to my nostrils before I pried my eyes open was the smell of a good ol’ English breakfast. Eggs, sausage, baked beans, bacon, toast……Adrian stood in front of me with a wide smile. Just like he’d been waiting there all along for me to catch a whiff of the goodies. “Breakfast in bed for milady.” He said in a playful English accent. Dropping the tray between my legs as I adjusted to fit it in. I looked outside the window, before briskly checking my phone. “Shit! I overslept.” I blurted. “Hold up Humpty Dumpty.” Adrian said, holding a hand up to my face. Huh? I couldn’t help but give the most honest confused look I’d ever put on. “That was supposed to be funny.” He added with a faint giggle, dropping to seat by the bed side. “You need a break, Jenna. Which is why I’ve decided to entertain you with a premium treat…”I was about to speak up when he cut in. “And yes! Arden is fine, I dropped him off at the daycare. So we’ve got a lot of

    CHAPTER 74ROB’S POVI sat at the edge of the table, as my eyes rolled between everyone that was present in the room. Most of them still looked gloomy from the news of fathers death. One of the board members, Mr Muller, a middle aged man with a French accent spoke up. “As we’ve all known, Robert was appointed interim CEO while Richard…may he his soul Rest In Peace.” He muttered the last words a little quietly. “Handled other relations outside of the company.”Everyone in the room exchanged glances amongst themselves. “With Mr. Richard’s passing, it’s now time we discuss the company’s future leadership.”Little whispers ran across the room. I couldn’t imagine my future being decided by these greedy wolves. “I didn’t just sit here and watch the market rise on its own.” I remarked calmly, even if I wasn’t feeling much like it.”I held this company through the worst financial slump we’ve witnessed in a decade.”“And we’re all grateful for that.” Mr Muller chimed, looking around the r
