KANE'S POV

I stepped out of the ensuite, steam clinging to my skin and a towel knotted loosely at my hips. The shower hadn’t done a damn thing to calm my wilting nerves. It had been three days after my fruitless attempt with the board members.

But I still couldn't get over the disappointment.

“What the…” I froze, scowling at Cynthia who was sprawled across my silk duvet, twirling a lock of her blonde hair as she scrolled on her phone.

    KANE'S POV I stepped out of the ensuite, steam clinging to my skin and a towel knotted loosely at my hips. The shower hadn’t done a damn thing to calm my wilting nerves. It had been three days after my fruitless attempt with the board members. But I still couldn't get over the disappointment.“What the…” I froze, scowling at Cynthia who was sprawled across my silk duvet, twirling a lock of her blonde hair as she scrolled on her phone.“You already had your quota of ‘small talk’ with me for a month.” “I'm not here for small talk,” she huffed.“Get out,” I snapped, the command coming out as a low growl. “If you’re here to try and seduce your way into a larger allowance, don't bother. I’m not in the mood for your games.”Cynthia moved her eyes from the phone towards me, trailing down my bare chest.Her nose scrunched upwards as she just let out a sharp, dry laugh that grated against my nerves. “Seduce you? Please, Kane. I’m here for business. Besides,” she paused, her eyes raking over

  • In Bed With My Fiancé’s Father   Chapter 85

    KANE'S POV “Fuck this!”I slammed the heavy oak door of the penthouse behind me, the sound echoing loudly through the foyer.The navy blue suit, the one I’d put on with such pride only hours ago, now felt like a straitjacket. It was too tight, too heavy. Even the tie felt like a noose around my neck, and due to my frustration, it refused to budge as I tugged it off.“I take it the board didn’t drop to their knees and crown you King?”Cynthia’s voice drifted from the sunken living room, dripping with an effortless, prickling sarcasm that made me want to tear out my ear.It genuinely made me want to put my fist through the wall. She was sprawled on the velvet chaise, a glass of amber liquid in her hand, looking entirely too comfortable.“I hope to God that's not alcohol you're drinking,” I snapped, eyeing the liquid in her hand.“Pft,” Cynthia scoffed. “Stop acting like you give a shi…”“I give a shit about the baby inside you, that's it!” I cut in harshly.She eyed me curiously, then

    KANE’S POVI sat in the car on the way back and said nothing.The driver knew better than to attempt conversation. He had worked for me long enough to read the difference between a silence that invited small talk and a silence that did not. This was very much the second kind.I looked out the window.Plan B.The words had come out of my mouth back there with more confidence than I had any right to, considering I had walked into that boardroom with one strategy and walked out of it with nothing but a slightly bruised ego and the memory of an old man telling me I was not my father.I knew I wasn’t my father.That was the whole point.I loosened my tie slightly and leaned back. The city moved past the window, glass and steel catching the afternoon light, all of it indifferent. The kind of city that did not care who you were or what you were trying to build. It just kept moving regardless.Cynthia’s voice again.Before it’s too late.I pressed two fingers against the bridge of my nose and

    Kane’s POV:I stood in front of my closet and my fingers brushed past rows of suits, but I my eye caught one, the one which stood out…. The navy blue suit.I pulled it out slowly and held it in front of me and I just stared at it…admiring its beauty.Cynthia’s voice came back to me.Take over the company before it’s too late.I can’t believe she had the audacity to come in here and tell me what to do but I knew I had no other choice so I exhaled quietly.I shook my head trying to push the thoughts away.I folded the suit over my arm and laid it on the bed. Then I made sure to dress diligently. I took the shirt and put it first, then the trousers and the jacket.When I slipped it on, it fit perfectly. I adjusted the cuffs and looked at myself in the mirror.I picked up my watch, fastened it, and walked down to the living room.Stanley was in the hallway when I stepped out.“Good morning, sir,” he said.I nodded. “Morning.”He hesitated, like he wanted to say something, but didn’t.I ad

    Cynthia’s POV:I found Kane later that evening in the living room. He always retreated to the bar when something was wrong.I stepped in slowly, and clicked my heels softly against the marble floor.Kane was lying loosely on the couch, with one arm hanging off the side, and a glass bottle in his hand. The scent of alcohol filled the air and it wasn’t just one drink. It was infact 4 bottles of beer that was standing there on the table.He had been drinking for a while and his shirt was half unbuttoned, his hair was slightly messy.“Kane,” I said softly.I moved closer, and lowered myself onto the arm of the couch beside him. “What happened?”He let out a dry laugh, then slowly, he lifted his head and looked at me.His eyes were red, and his face was puffy. “I lost her,” he said.I tilted my head slightly. “Olivia?”He nodded once, then looked away, and took another round of drink from the bottle.I looked at him carefully. “Talk to me,” I said.For a moment, I thought he wouldn’t bec

    Lucius POV:The moment Olivia stepped out of the room with Sally, I reached for my phone.My fingers hovered over the screen for a second, searched for the number then I exhaled slowly and dialed.He picked up moments later.“Sir.”“Vigil, I need you,” I said with urgency.There was a brief pause on the line.“I’m listening,” he replied.I swallowed once, then sat up a little straighter despite the slight pull in my body.“I need you to come to the hospital,” I said. “Immediately.”“Is everything alright?” he asked.“No,” I said plainly. “It’s not.”“I’m on my way,” he said without hesitation.The call ended and I lowered the phone slowly and placed it beside me.If this was how it was going to play out, then I might as well be ready also.I leaned back slightly, and closed my eyes for a few seconds..The image of the report flashed in my mind again.Comparability: Negative.About twenty minutes later, the door opened and Vigil walked in with his same composed expression and sharp eye

    Olivia’s POV. The taxi came to a stop in front the maxim building. Slowly I exited the back seat and moved over to the boot. It opened immediately and I took out my luggages. Before moving over to the driver. “Thank you very much. How much is it?”The bald headed man in his thirties turned to me,

    Olivia’s POV“Surely you have something to say?” Eric asked, his voice low but his face attentive. I couldn’t stare at his eyes. If I did, I’d break easily and tell him everything. There was no point rushing it as it is. How do I break it to my last living relative that I'm pregnant... and it's b

    Olivia’s POV“What?” He asked with a perplexing look on his face. “Olivia…”“Yeah, you heard me. Leave!” My voice is higher now, much strict and stern. But I don’t care. Why the hell would he mention someone that humiliated me twice. Lucious looked stunned, he wanted to say something but couldn’t

    Olivia’s POVI pushed the door shut, standing there. Curtain pushed aside, eyes peeking out to see Moses make a quick turn before driving off. I’m glad I met him. What seemed like just a taxi drive, now felt like a divine intervention. He spoke with so much wisdom, I’d almost forgotten what happen
