NERIAH'S POV

I can't believe he's dying.

Throughout the flight back home I kept staring at him to see if he'd turn around and say, "Neriah... about last night....it was a joke. Or I was drunk, but he didn't say a word. Instead he kept his gaze out of the window, staring into the vast nothingness below.

Denver Chadwick and I have never been best if friends but I feel extremely sorry for him.

I wish there was a way to save his life just as he saved mine. I didn't know how to ask him if there was no cure for whatever it was, but for him to say outrightly that he was dying then there probably was no cure.

Or the sickness had eaten too deep to be cured.

I sigh for the umpteenth time, dusting the same table I've been on since I picked this rag up.

My mind turns towards a different direction. There has to be a means for his company to avoid bankruptcy, but who would he be leaving it to? Gia? Charity?

Why's he fighting so hard for a legacy he has no one to carry on? If I was the one, I

    DENVER'S POV Sara's pearl like skin is all I need when it feels like the weight of the world's coming down on me. She purrs satisfactorily as I pull her closer under the duvet, the warmness of her skin soothing the coldness in my heart. "What's bothering you?" She whispers into my ear. My eyes fling open. "Nothing that concerns you." It's a habit of mine to separate business from pleasure. She can never know what's going on in my personal life and I stay away from hers as well.I found her six years ago, in Vegas. She was one small little princess but she sure knew her to ride me till I completely let go of my defenses. Two years ago I bought her this place and asked her to move away from her abusive husband in Chicago. She's been living here for me ever since. I don't care if she entertains other men, of if she's doing something else with her life. I just need her to be here and ready when I come. And she always is. My phone vibrates just as I close my eyes again. I wonder if i

    LAURA'S POV The new staff of the villa will report to duty today. I made sure to take out everyone who looked like they'd be a hindrance to my search for Liam's ledger and in replacement, I brought in Montero and his boys. Ah...Montero and I had such an amazing time at the casino on Friday night. In fact, I believe that's the first time I've had fun since I married Liam. I'm not a girl who likes to put on flowy dresses and smile all evening at wealthy patrons, most of which are my husband's business partners. Instead, I love to sit at the casino and game. The kind that leaves men penniless and drunk as they bet all their money on games I've already rigged. Montero taught me this years ago and I absolutely love it. At midnight, he carried me in his arms like old times, tore my black, leather jacket away from my body and devoured me. Liam is nothing compared to him. A sigh escapes my lips as wetness slides between my legs. I'd promised never to make love to Montero since I'm marri

    DENVER'S POV Gia's been away for the entire night and she's not here at work either.Not like I miss her or anything, I'm just worried that she may have left for good. While that'd be great news, it'd leave me lonely and that's my greatest fear after losing to Liam. I don't want to end up lonely. Sighing, I grab my car keys and call for my official driver. I'm in no mental condition to drive, plus I want to make a quick stop at a prestigious client's office. I need to ease the tension in my soul right now and she's the only one who can help me with that. My mind skitters back to Gia. She's been angry on so many occasions but never for once had she slept out of the house or ghosted my calls. She must be really hurt this time around. "Where to, sir?" The driver asks as I close the door shut. "You know where." He turns on the engine without another word. We're halfway to my destination when my phone begins to buzz. It's Derek. "I assume you've found him?" "Yes boss. He's asking

    LAURA'S POV I know I caught him unawares but I never expected him to shake his head and laugh. Liam's usually tipsy after taking a few sips of alcohol, and every time he's tipsy, he tells me whatever I want to hear. Every. Fucking. Time. "Laura, you're my wife. You're supposed to know me." He drops the bottle of beer aside again, turning to me. "Even if every other person usually considers me as weak, or stupid, I expect you to give me more credit."I don't understand what he's talking about, and today, he doesn't sound drunk. Not one bit. "There's no way I'm telling you where that ledger is. What do you need such sensitive information for anyway? Don't you trust me?" "Trust, Liam?" I rise to my feet, my chest's already boiling with rage. "You're the one who doesn't trust me. You're keeping an information that we've been threatened countlessly for. Our baby has even been kidnapped for it. Why is this ledger so delicate? Why can't you show me or let me know what it's truly about?

    DENVER'S POV I can't get Neriah's words off my mind. What if I really let go of this entire battle like she suggested and throw in the rest of my effort into making my company stand on her feet?But that'd mean that for the first time in my life I'm quitting. And Denver Chadwick never quits. Liam keeps insisting that my father left no will, but I have a strong feeling that he did. I have an even stronger feeling that he's trying desperately to keep me away from my share of our inheritance. But why?Liam has always had whatever he wanted no matter how expensive. Even now he's the one with the good life and top ranking business. Why won't he let me have what's mine?My palms crunch into a fist, rage seeping through my blood stream. This is exactly why I can't just let it go. Because Liam has a habit of bullying me subtly, especially since he knows he can't face me physically. I need to find that goddamn lawyer again and maybe beat the shit out of him. Maybe then I can get the answer
