Harry POV
After a quick shower, I get dressed in one of my tailored suits. I fix my tie while I look at myself in the mirror, and I pass my hands through my hair. I shake my head, taking a deep breath. What the hell is Rita thinking she’s going to get with this? I never thought she would do something like this.
Alice is making some more coffee and some snacks. Steve is coming over so We can go through the speech for the press conference. He will moderate the questions and tell me which ones I can answer. I am not happy about it, but it needs doing. I don’t like to be showing up on the press and making statements, but this got out of hand.
After my parents and my idiot of a brother spoke to the press, they made things worse. They should’ve stayed out of it. They brought more heat onto the case. Now the press is
Hello.... So what do you think?
Rita POVThese last few days have been a nightmare. Henry misses his daddy, and I wish I could just let them be together for a little while. I do miss Harry as well. He’s been with me for a few years now, and I fell for him. I know he thinks I don’t love Him. But I am doing all of this because I love him too much. Someday he will understand. I wake up with Henry crying. I walk to his bedroom to see what was happening. I am struggling to deal with his teething and with my morning sickness. Mum wants me to move in with her, but I don’t want to. She’s been manipulating everything about my life, and I am done. I can’t do it anymore. I haven’t even told her I am pregnant. I am afraid of what she might say or do to Harry after she finds out.
Karen POVI know Rita is trying to get away and not do the plan. I just don’t know why. But I don’t need her. Not anymore. This is bigger than her now. I get in the car, and my wonderful husband waits for me. I want to see that bitch’s face after she sees us together. I kiss his lips, and he smiles at me with adoration in his eyes. I love him a lot, but I haven’t forgotten what Harry did to me. And Devin. They will both pay. Alice is just collateraldamage. “Are you ready, my love?” - D asks me.“As I’ll ever be”, - I say as I put on the seatbelt, and he starts the car. I am going to make a special appearance at the press conference t
D POV I met Karen a few years ago when I was doing my residency. I immediately fell in love with her. She had just moved away from London, and she was starting her life again. She was working at a funeral agency. I met her when my grandmother died. She was the one dealing with everything. The way she handled everything with such class and always showing me that I was going to be okay made me fall entirely in love with her. Her caring eyes and her beautiful smile made me realise she was the one for me. She is a little older than me, but I am okay with that. We went out on a date , and she told me about her past, how her boyfriend dumped her for her friend and how she suffered from that. The boyfriend was a dick and
Alice POV I am making the bed when the doorbell rings. I look through the window, and I see the reporters taking photos, and I see Devin with his shades in his eyes and with his arms crossed. I run to the door, and I slightly open it so he can come in. I close the door as soon as he steps inside, and he gives me half hug and a kiss on the top of the head “Hello, sweetheart. How are you doing?” - he asks me while we go to the front room. The conference is being televised, and I can’t wait to see Harry taking down that bitch. She’s been lying and manipulating Harry. I never thought I would hate someone as much as I hate her. Devin grabs us both cups of coffee, and we sit watching tv. Once the conference starts, I start
Hi everyone. I am sorry I haven’t updated the book as often as I would like. My personal life is a mess at the moment. We had some unfortunate and unforeseen things happening, and I don’t have the time to sit and write. You all know I work full time (40+ hours per week, and I have a toddler). I am trying my best when I’ve got a few minutes to type something, but it’s complicated, and honestly, if I write, I will end up killing everyone because of everything that is happening to me. My life is literally upside down at the moment, and writing is not coming easily. I do apologise to all of you for the wait. I don’t know when I will be updating, but I’m hoping that my life will be a little better by the
Harry POV After the initial shock of seeing Karen and that asshole passed, we sat at the dinner table and had some good food and even better wine. Dine and Wine sound good to me right about now. Alice is looking worried, and I know she is still thinking about Karen; how can she not? This is all messed up, and if I hadn’t seen her in front of me, I would’ve thought she was still far away, and people were lying. But I saw her with my own eyes, no one told me. The bitch is back, and I am not happy about it. I know she’s got something up her sleeve, and being with the douchebag, David makes things even more suspicious. I knew I couldn’t like that guy, not just because he was married to the love of my life or for the fact that he broke her heart but because he is an asshole that is with Karen. How can he? “Are you sure it was Dave?” - A
Rita POV I go back home after watching the disaster that the press conference was. I can’t believe that Karen did that. What a bitch. I understand why Harry did what he did, and I honestly understand his anger and saying all of that. I deserve the heat that I am going to take because of it. I just don’t want my children involved in all of this. Henry is only a baby, and I want him to grow up to be just like Harry, respectful of woman and respectful of everyone; I want to be proud of the man he will become. If I keep doing this, he will grow up involved in lies and manipulations, and I don’t want that for my son or for myself. I want to have a normal life where I can raise my children peacefully. When I arrive, I walk straight into Henry’s bedroom, and I start packing all of his essentials, everything he will need for us to stay away from here. I am
Harry POVRita explained all of the connections and all of the misunderstandings that happened lately and even her accusations. I can see she is sorry, but I don’t know if I will ever be able to forgive her. What she did was extremely serious. She could have destroyed my entire career, not to mention Alice’s.Her career had to be put on hold because of all the serious things being said about her. Especially now that had come out what Alice used to do when we met, and how we met.Rita told us about an exclusive interview that Karen has booked to be held tomorrow. According to Rita, this interview is going to cause a lot of damage.Alice passes me my phone straight away, and I start dealing with lawyers and Devin to get everything under control. Not to mention my publicist. She has a hard time keeping everything as private as possible. Still, older photos are coming out, photos of the wedding in I
