Jacqueline’s Dilemma: Chosen By The Tycoon Chapter 23
~Rex’s POV~I sounded the car horn at the gate. I held my hand at the steering wheel, impatiently tapping my fingers on it. The gate wheeled open. I glanced at the gate-keeper. He stood there, with his head hung. I heaved and shook my head. I really need to change the service here.I drove into the compound and parked beside the trimmed hedges. I unfastened my seatbelt. I reached for my suitcase, which was on the passenger seat. What a day! I opened the door and got out of the car. The headlights flashed as I locked to the car.I walked to the house. I stood at the door and knocked at it. Immediately, someone answered.“Boss,” Jason said when he answered the door.Mm! I walked in and heard the door click behind me. I entered the living room and sat down on the couch. Jason had followed me and stood at a distance. I raked my fingers through my hair tiredly.“I need a glass of water.” I said plainly.“Just water or—?” He asked, wanting to clarify.

~Rex’s POV~I stood in front of the window, with my hands behind him. I looked through it and watched the workers keenly below the floor I was. They moved steadily, though at a low pace. The products rolled down through the conveyor belt, falling into the basket. “Sir,” I turned my head round and flashed a glance at the employee behind me. I looked through the window again. I turned round, facing the employee completely.“Here is the file you requested.” She said, walking towards me. She stood at distance and held out the file.I collected it out from her and opened it. I scanned the first page and flipped over to the next. I flashed a glance at her and looked at the file again.“Why aren’t the numbers from the previous sales corresponding to the annual audit?” I asked sternly.“I have no idea, Sir. I wasn’t the one who prepared the report.” She admitted.I looked at her keenly. I could see the sincerity in her eyes. “Who did?” I followed up, closing the file.“It was the Superviso

~Rex’s POV~Shirley had her eyes on me and slowly glanced at Cupcake. She roughly let go of her hair. Cupcake almost lost her balance and held on to a chair. “You got lucky. Otherwise, I wouldn’t hesitate to shut that mouth of yours permanently.” Shirley said annoyingly. She looked round and adjusted her top.“It was a bad idea coming here. It lacks authenticity and probably, not worth spending money on. Come on, girls! We can go to another bakery to get the cake for the party.” She said.Shirley smirked as she glanced at Cupcake. She walked towards the door. Her facial expression changed when she was to the door. She scowled at me and pulled the door open. Her friends followed suit, except one. She had blonde hair.“B*tch!” She said brusquely to Cupcake.“One more word and you might end up without a tongue.” I warned her.She wrinkled her nose in disgust and walked towards the door. She banged the door. I looked through the glass door and watched them drive out. This explains why I
Jacqueline’s Dilemma: Chosen By The Tycoon Chapter 20
~Jacqueline’s POV~ I sat down in the passenger seat while Daisy drove the car. The twins were seated at the back. They had their tablets in the hands and played games in it. “It was a good thing Rex allowed you to come with us. For a moment there, I thought he was going to disagree.” She said happily. I simply hummed. I didn’t have the right words to say. She glanced at me, wearing a smile. I smiled wryly, looking away immediately. Daisy turned on the indicator and made a right turn. She drove a little above the speed limit on the posted speed limit we drove past. She had almost drove through the lane when the car suddenly galloped. Luckily, I was strapped in and was held by the seatbelt. The boys’ tablets fell from their hands. They landed on their feet. “Oops!” She apologized as she had her eyes at the rearview mirror. “I didn’t see the bump.” “It’s okay. At least, no one got hurt.” I said calmly. “Yeah, I guess so.” She said, sounding a little doubtfully. She turn
Jacqueline’s Dilemma: Chosen By The Tycoon Chapter 19
~Rex’s POV~ The engine ground as the car drove speedily. I had my hands on the steering wheel, with had eyes constantly at the wing mirror. I noticed the flash of a headlight. I glanced at the rearview mirror. There was a car behind. It was trying to overtake. Well, not on my watch. I stepped on the accelerator pedal. The arrow on the speedometer crossed over to the red lines, stopping at the last figure. I applied pressure on the pedal, making sure the speed stay constant. The car, previously behind me, was now abreast of me. What the—? I glanced through the window and saw the driver. It was a lady. She turned to her side and looked at him. She wore a smirk and wink at me. Soon, she drove past me. Was I going to lose to a woman? Definitely not. I checked my fuel gauge. It was slowly turning red. F**k! Not now. I looked through the windscreen. I was a few metres to the finish line. The lady’s car was right in front of me. Was I going to accept defeat? I caught a glimpse of a ro

~Jacqueline’s POV~ Saturday, like every other day, being trapped here. I sat down on the bed cross-legged. I was still dressed in my satin nightdress. I glanced my arm. It was difficult hiding the bruise I had got because of Rex. If Daisy had seen it yesterday, she wouldn’t think twice and tell Alex. Thereby, getting me into the trouble. How did my life get this complicated? Not only did I get dragged to a marriage I never wanted, I discovered I was married to my boyfriend’s step-brother. Ugh! I wish everything would just go back to normal and I could wake up from this nightmare. Liam will be furious when he finds out about my marriage. Rex, on the other hand, probably might be furious or taunt him. My life is a mess. My whole existence is cursed. Anytime I get a chance to be happy, something always comes in and ruin it. All I ever wanted was to feel loved and truly wanted by someone. What that too much to ask? Reminiscing on my past with Liam made me teary. I caught a glim

~Jacqueline’s POV~Almost. Almost got it. Al-most; finally, I got the zip done. I looked at my reflection in the mirror and smiled. The sequins at the bodice of the dress glinted as I stood partially under the light. The silhouette was made out of polyester and was a little above my knees. For a ha

~Jacqueline’s POV~I clutched on to the seatbelt as Rex drove into the compound. He parked his car at the entrance of the garage. My blood suddenly turned cold as the engine stopped. Goose pimples were visible on my arms. I swallowed. Hell; I had returned there with more complications than when I h

8~Rex’s POV~I made a right turn and drove straight. I drove into the police station and pulled over at the car park. I turned off the ignition and unstrapped the seatbelt. I opened the door and got out to the car. I looked at the building opposite the car park.My phone bleeped. I put my hand in
