REBECCA'S POV

"We can discuss your payment when I leave the hospital. For now, I need something else from you."

Rebecca was about to speak but then closed her lips, staring at Kendrick hard.

"Why are you helping me so much? If you continue this way..." Rebecca looked down at her palm.

"I don't think my debt will ever be cleared. I'm guessing you don't want money, right?"

Kendrick chuckled. "Becca, money is one of the cheapest and most worthless resources to me."

"Then what do you want, then?" I shot in, the frustration rising in my throat like bile.

    KENDRICK’S POVThe doors closed behind me and I let out the breath I was holding.The pain was like nothing I’d felt before. Her words hurt, sure—but watching her heart die hurt worse.She was ready to do anything to get back to him. I used to think being used was fine as long as it was her, but now it felt so different.Why would she dare use her body just to have her way?Anger swamped through my chest, and the only thing I could do was let out the pent-up rage boiling inside me."Ahhhh!" I roared, groaning deeply. I could hear the sound of my own voice echoing in my head.I trashed the table, flinging it against the wall, and it cracked into pieces. It splintered like my insides.The sting at the corners of my eyes worsened as my shoulders shook uncontrollably and I slumped to the floor."The woman I love is fading, and it seems I can’t even do anything to stop it." I buried my face in my palms and closed my eyes.The door opened and I heard quick footsteps rushing toward me.“Boss

    REBECCA'S POV"Miss Belmont, it seems you are trying to change the subject here." Mr. Jerome threw his hands up in the air. "If you haven’t secured the deal, then you should be the one explaining to the board."I snickered. "Mr. Jerome, it seems you have forgotten your place as part of the board. If you’ve outlived your usefulness, we might as well just toss you out.""You—"I turned my face toward the rest of the board watching me, whispering softly amongst themselves. I laced my fingers tighter in my lap, taking a deep breath.My gaze hovered toward Alyssa. She forced a small smile at me, but I could barely feel my own face. I just wanted this to be over as soon as possible.The sound of a chair scraping the floor filled the room, and I noticed Philip Hart standing up. He adjusted his suit. He narrowed his eyes toward me and gulped, blinking his lashes uncontrollably before he turned his face away.He cleared his throat. "Miss Belmont is the chairman. I'm sure she has everything und

    REBECCA'S POV"I..." He choked, batting his eyelashes from side to side."I—’ is not an answer." I frowned."Miss Belmont, I swear I’ll get it done. Just please don’t release the video." He begged, sweat running from the corner of his face.When I didn’t answer, he quickly scrambled to his knees, palms pressed together, panting. "Please, Miss Belmont. My career is at stake. Anything you want—I can do it for you."The response satisfied me more than I cared to admit, but I stood up slowly, straightening my shoulders. His eyes stayed fixed on me, his breathing growing faster."Then you know what to do." I mumbled.He nodded sharply, bobbing his head up and down in frantic bows. "Thank you, Miss Belmont."I rolled my eyes away from him, then gestured with my fingers for him to leave, and he didn’t waste a single minute before heeding my command.Alyssa stepped closer behind me. "Miss Belmont, are you sure he can help us?"The concern dripped from her tone. From what I’d gathered so far,

    REBECCA'S POVClick!The door opened, and my head turned toward the sound of footsteps echoing inside my office. For a moment, I hoped it was Kendrick, but when my eyes locked on the person in front of me, I was utterly disappointed."Good day, Miss. I take it that you don't seem very happy to see me," Philip Harts grinned.My eyes were cold, barely able to contain the disgust. "I'm glad you noticed. What do you want? The meeting the board fixed starts by five."Philip adjusted his suit sluggishly, leaning against my table, his eyes darting over toward Alyssa as he licked his tongue. She trembled.I shoved Alyssa to the side so his gaze would be on mine.I tucked my arms in front of me. Honestly, I didn’t even know why I still kept him in this company after all his immoral behavior.Still, even if I was going to let him off, that didn’t mean I wasn’t going to teach him a lesson."State your business Mr. Harts. I have a meeting." I said firmly.Mr. Harts rolled his eyes and then took a

    REBECCA'S POVI wasn't supposed to feel anything. After all, in this world everyone uses people in one way or another, so why was he being so difficult?But yet, my chest squeezed painfully watching his face go pale and his eyes turning red with each second."Get out."The world seemed to pause, because he had never spoken to me in such a manner before.Did I perhaps hurt him with my words?I tried to reach out by taking a step."Ken..."Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!My words faltered at the sound of his phone ringing on the table, and instinctively my gaze flicked towards it."My baby"The words displayed on his screen stared right back at me, filled with heart emojis.My fist tightened, forcing a smile.Kendrick noticed my gaze. He snatched the phone from the table, tucking it inside his pocket and refusing to even look at me.I wasn't a fool. I realized whoever was calling was someone very special to him. Given his kind of personality, he didn't seem like the kind of man to just save a random g

Of all the days, why did it have to be today she got into an accident?"Reyes!"Becca’s voice cracked like a whip in my skull. I blinked hard, her gaze slicing through mine, sharp and unrelenting. Her lips trembled, parted just enough to show the desperate catch of her breath."Can we at least get you stitched up first?" I said, my voice dropping to a hoarse whisper. I swallowed hard, tasting the copper of blood in my mouth. "We can talk about business later.
