CHAPTER FIFTEEN
MILA'S POV
I sat with him on his bed but hadn't been able to strike up a conversation with him over 5 minutes after I had gone in."They have always been this way since they were little. Whenever the slept together, they'd snuggle but wouldn't want to believe so the next morning. Even after a year apart, the habit continues." Carter Stated."What?" I asked clearly confused."Nathan and Peggy." He explained."Oh!! Nathan and Peggy huh." I chuckled. "They are quite the pair. Always fighting, but snuggle while they sleep.""Exactly what's gets me confused!" He laughed and after that, we went silent again. we both occasionally caught each other staring at the other. "You came for us to talk about dinner right?" He finally asked.
"Yes?" my reply sounded very much like a question."Welllll....." He dragged. "Shoot! Ask me whatever you want to know and I'll answer."I inhaled sharply and placed my hands on the fluffy duvet as I looke

CHAPTER ONE 15th May 2021 MILA'S POV I stood in front of the chapel in which MacCarter was about to be wed. It had been 5 long and hard years, but I was back to recover all that I lost or rather, what was stolen from me. I was no longer that weak 18 year old girl, fresh out of high school, without a Mom or a healthy father. I turned out to be strong and bold. I had to be because life had given me a lot more reasons to be. **********8th August 2016 And for the uptenth time that morning, I sighed in frustration. Of all things, why this? I had always been the obedient child and trophy daughter, never making decisions of my own and always abiding by the rules set for me, as the "heir" of the Monteiro Empire. If Dad was well, he wouldn't let Claudia treat me as badly as she does. She finally did most unimaginable. It was the last straw that broke the camel's back. How could she plan my marriage to that man? A total stranger. "Camilla open this door now!!!" She was here already, I

FIVE YEARS AGO Mila's POVFor two weeks I laid on my bed, crying. I still found it difficult to believe where fate tossed me to. All this while, I had endured, complied with, and done all Claudia's biddings, just so I would be seen as good enough to inherit and oversee all of Dad's businesses and investments. But now, I wasn't even sure of anything. I felt exhausted, weak and my eyes were so heavy from crying. Claudia my step mother came in earlier to let me know I was going to move in with Mr Carter today. This was crazy! She couldn't at the least wait for me to properly getting married to this man. She was in a hurry to get rid of me. I sluggishly got of my bed and entered the bathroom to do my business. Looking at my face in the mirror, I saw a lost, hopeless and lonely girl. Swollen eyes, dull face and a several maps of dry tears on my cheek. I quickly brushed my teeth, had my bath and went ahead to arrange my bags. I chose to see my plight in a different and positive light. At
MILA’S REVENGE CHAPTER THREE
CARTER'S POV As usual, I knew I was going home to some peace and tranquillity, but this time around, I was wrong. I got to my room, undressed and went under the shower. I was still bathing when I heard someone scream. At first I thought it just was my mind, so I continued bathing. It wasn't up to 30 seconds when I heard another scream, accompanied by loud sniffles. I jumped out of the bath tub immediately and made for my bathrobe which was hung on the door of the bathroom. I wore it and ran out of my room as the wailing became louder, which helped me locate the source. Camilla's Room.My heart thumped really fast. I hope she hadn't injured herself. On getting to her room, I opened it without knocking, and what I saw shocked me. I saw a Brunette lying face flat on the floor, crying so painfully that her whole body vibrated as she wailed. I didn't know why, but I felt so sorry for her. Whatever might have been the reason for such sorrow must have been so serious. She was still oblivi
MILA’S REVENGE CHAPTER FOUR
CARTER'S POV "So how did you enjoy your evening?" I asked Camila as we walked towards the elevator in the penthouse."Actually, it was cool. I quite enjoyed myself. It's not every time I go out without being scolded or controlled..." She gradually stopped talking, as if feeling like she had said a lot. Well that was a lot, if I was to pay attention to the underlying meaning of what she said. "How do you mean?" I further enquired. Some things she had said before and her reaction to other things that happened had really made me quite curious. There was definitely something I was missing out on, concerning her."Oh? Never mind" She replied looking uncomfortable and I knew better than to persist and cause her more discomfort. We got into the Elevator and I punched the 5th floor button, as we waited in an awkward silence. I stole a glance at her as she softly tapped her foot on the floor of the elevator and wrapped some strands of her hair on her index finger. A habit I felt she exhibite
MILA’S REVENGE CHAPTER FIVE
CARTER'S POV I shut down my laptop and quickly cleared the rest of the files on my table, preparing to leave for my house. I was really hoping that my night with Camilla goes smoothly. I planned taking her shopping to get her dress for her father's burial tomorrow and also take her to the spa for a wonderful massage and skin therapy. I honestly didn't know why I was being so nice to her, but what I knew for sure was that Camilla was a lonely and broken girl. She needed someone to care for her and I honestly didn't mind being that person. I took my keys out of my pocket as I fondled a bit with it, before successfully slipping it into the door lock and opening the door. The most wonderful aroma I had smelled in a while hit my nose. God! What the hell was Felicity cooking? My mouth was watering already."Hey!" Camilla said as she came into the sitting room from the dinning. She was probably waiting for Felicity to be done with the dish I guess. "Hellooo! How was your day?" I enquired
MILA’S REVENGE CHAPTER SIX
CAMILLA'S POV Lately Carter had been so nice to me and I was eternally grateful, but wasn't he supposed to spite me. I was just another business deal for him right? I noticed he normally acted like he didn't know shit about me, but he couldn't fool me. Yes I appreciated the fact that he was being all nice and caring about me, but he was still going to let out his real hatred soon. That was how Claudia buttered me up too, when she moved in with my father. Initially, she was always so sweet and nice and always understanding. That was until he married her, the whole story changed. It was as if she was waiting to get married to my Dad before she showed her true self. She had my poor father wrapped around her little finger. I always wondered if Dad ever really loved my mother, or she was just another business deal, just like I was to Carter, but my Childhood memories where my Dad was always all over my Mom never left my brain for one second. He loved her. Then why was he cheating? I h
MILA’S REVENGE CHAPTER SEVEN
CAMILLA'S POVI was still thinking about my confrontation with Carter. I still couldn't believe he was forced into this whole thing just like I was, and to think that I took the issue the worst way possible, where as, he was also in the same problem but managing his emotions just fine.I looked around me and carefully eyed all the documents on the bed. My eyes were already aching as I hadn't gotten much sleep last night due to the fact that I was going through all the documents. I was also surprised when I saw the last document in the file. Dad left I and Carter an early wedding present, he gifted us a Duplex in the heart of New York. I was still very shocked concerning all the properties I had to my name now. How? Just how? We were really broke, if I remember quite well and I didn't understand how it was possible for Dad to have had all this wealth. Well, if I was being honest, We lived very comfortably for people who were bankrupt. Yes, I know I said the poultry kept us going, but h

MILA'S POV. After Carter had successfully persuaded Felicity to go sleep, that we were going to retire afterwards, we went ahead to seat on the Sofa and began reminiscing the night's events."I'm sorry you had to break off your relationship because of me.""You shouldn't be" he replied looking indifferent. "I think I brought commotion into your life, as much as you did mine. So, no hard feelings" He gave a tight smile. "By the way, why were you being so inquisitive about us. I mean, I and my ex?" He queried. "To be sincere, I wanted to know if you both were still together." I answered honestly."What would you have done if you had found out we were still together?""Probably.....find a way out of this mess?" I said unsure. "I didn't have anyone in my life before the news of you, but I can imagine how it feels to let go of someone you still love, for something that has an alternative. I was scared that I would probably live the rest of my life regretting why I had to entrap an innocen
