Kieran Brielle Henderson couldn't accept the fact that she was being cheated on by her boyfriend. Her long time boyfriend whom she thought will forever be with her. She was deeply hurt after seeing him having sex with another woman. Feeling unwanted, unloved, betrayed, broken, and hurt, she found another way to heal her broken heart, to be able to move on, and have her little revenge. And that is by marrying the ruthless billionaire, Logan Achilles Sullivan who was arranged by her father to her to save their company. *** "I'll let you divorce me after one year, but that's after you carry my child, my heir." I frowned at him. "I'm too young for that! I still have dreams! I don't want to have a child yet!" Who does he think he is?! Does he really think that having a child is easy?! He let out a cruel smirk as darkness clouded his electric blue eyes. "Then, don't divorce me."

He doesn't have to ask me that though. I know that he already saw my determination to dig dipper about my Dad's case. I can't just shut my mouth forever when I know that something's going on. And my first suspect would be Claire and Anita. I may not have proofs to show yet, but I'll surely find one, and I won't stop 'till I have it. I won't stop 'till I dig about the fucking dirt that they have been hiding for such a long time. "A hundred percent sure, Matias. And I want you to be the head of the investigation. And you should start it by investigating where the sniper stayed when it happened. We might be able to get some footages or clues in that place." Matias nodded stiffly. And just like that, I know he clearly understood that I want no failures for this investigation. "Keep this a secret, Matias. Th
Chapter 59: Got You"What was that?" That was the first question that came out from my mouth when all the board members left and I was left alone with Logan Sullivan inside. Mateo also left because I told him to watch for my son. He was hesitant at first, but then he followed me eventually."What? I was only telling them the truth. You're still the President and the CEO of your Dad's company. You deserve that position, Kieran. Don't let other people tell you otherwise, hmm?" I frowned at him to show him that I wasn't liking even a tiny bit of what's coming our from his mouth. Seriously? It still bothers me how he can say these words so easily like he never did me wrong before?Were we okay? No, we aren't. And we will never be fine, so it would be much better if we part our ways completely. But why does fate seemed to be playing with us?"What game are you seriously playing, Logan Sullivan? Didn't I told you already that I don't want to see you ever again? Why can't you understand that
Chapter 58The next day, I was bombarded with a lot of messages and emails coming from the investors and the board members in Dad's company. They were asking me what will happen to the company now that Dad's gone. Seriously, these people are kinda disgusting. Dad just died and yet, they want me to take the responsibility already. They didn't even give me enough time to mourn. If I have any other choice, I would've been choosing something else, but then I don't. I am the only successor of my father, the heiress of his business that he worked his ass off, so I will be taking over it even when I am not that ready yet. After taking a bath, I started choosing clothes to wear and decided to wear a black sweetheart corset top and paired it with a black blazer and a white trouser as the buttom to complete my look. I tied my hair in a neat bun with some strands left on each side to highlight my face. I wore pair of channel gold earrings and safety pin gold necklace. I put on my gold wrist wa
Chapter 57Watching my father's casket being dragged down the soil to be buried was painful. I cried my heart out knowing that I wouldn't be able to see the old man ever again. Why is this happening? Oh God. This is too sudden, really. I wasn't even able to spend more time with him after a year and then I lost him? We lost him.How am I going to survive the next day now that he's not by my side to support me? How am I going to get through all this? My Kierro Achellus is still too young for this. He doesn't deserve this. We don't deserve this. "Momma..." I heard Kierro's soft voice behind me. I turned to look at him, only to see him being carried by his father. I totally forgot about my own son because of this. I couldn't but feel a little guilty. I was too busy of mourning on my own, that I forgot about my son who's probably as devastated as me too.A small smile slowly stretched on my lips. "Come here, baby. Let's go home, hmm?" I am well aware of the stare that I am getting from L
Chapter 56: Last MomentI was tensed the whole day. Although I wasn't that tired at all because the maids helped me entertain everyone who came to see and look at Dad and also to send condolences, I still feel very drained. Most especially that I can feel Logans gaze at me everywhere I go. He's really following my every moves and I feel uncomfortable about it. I act like his stares are nothing to me, but deep inside, it was sending different shivers in my body. And I was glad that he didn't pushed himself to talk to me or ask me anything that concerns about Kierro, because I am still not ready to talk to him about it.The next day, I wore an all black sleeveless dress that's above my knee. It completely hugged and complimented each curves of my body. I smiled while staring at my own reflection in front of the mirror. Seeing my body now is what makes me more proud of myself. It satisfied me knowing that I carried Kierro inside me for nine months. I used to have a fragile body, but no
Chapter 55: Unexpected Visitor "Your father has arrived, Miss..." Matias said in his low voice. I can still sense the slight guilt in his voice, and I feel sad for it. I wasn't blaming anyone. It wasn't his fault nor his team's fault. They did all their best to protect my father. It's just that... maybe, just maybe it was his time.Yes. I am slowly accepting the truth that my father is really gone, and that he won't be back anymore. I have to accept it. We have to, so we can all be able to move forward and continue our lives. But before that, I will still have to capture the person who's behind my Dad's death. I will surely put him or her behind bars."D-do you want me to prepare your dinner, Miss?" He asked again. "Ahm, I can also prepare something for Kierro..."I smiled softly and shook my head. "There's no need, Mat. Can you face the people who are here for... the meantime? I can face them tomorrow, but not now..."His eyes sparkled as he smiled a bit. "Sure, Miss--""And please
Chapter 54: Mourn"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, Miss..." That was the words that immediately greeted me as soon as I stepped inside our mansion. The maids looked sad and sorrowful. Of course, who wouldn't anyway? Dad is treating them like a family. He's good with his employees, so I am not wondering anymore why some of them are around here. I sighed. I looked at Matias. I noticed the bandage on his left arm. I heard that he was injured there, and he just came out from the hospital this day too after he recovered. Well, he doesn't look fully fine now. I even told him that it was no need for him to be here and see me personally. It's his recovery that's more important, but he insisted. He said he wanted to face me, so he can apologize, I guess.But, it was no need. He doesn't have to apologize, because he's not the one who shot my Dad in the first place. He shouldn't apologize for someone else's fault."Matias, you did your job. You protected him 'till his last breath. You don't need t
Chapter 53: Back"Are you sure that you'll be fine, Brielle?" Samantha asked softly. Her eyes were sad as she watched me and Kierro. I asked a favor from her and her husband. I want to go back home urgently and I needed their connection. Samantha and her husband lent me their private jet. I was thankful of them so much. "I--I will. I should, Sam, for my Bubba..." I said with my hoarse and weak voice as I tried to let out a small smile, but it ended up like a wince in pain. Samantha bit her lower lip. Sadness completely overtook her face before she pulled me for a tight embrace. "Please, take care of yourself and Kierro, hmm? Remember, if you need any help, don't ever hesitate to call me or Nathan. You know how to reach us, please do that. If only I am not pregnant and it's not that delicate for me to travel around, I would've come with--""Shush, it's okay, Sam. It's okay. This help from you is already enough, please... I really appreciate this, Sam. Thank you so much..." "You're
Chapter 52: Papa Gramps"Oh my grandson!" I smiled while I was watching my son looking curiously at my father. He just arrived today, and it's heartwarming to see my son and Daddy finally met after almost two years since Kierro was born. Well, we always video call with Daddy, but it's s lot more different seeing him in person. I miss him so much. My Dad. I sighed. Compared to the last time that I saw him, he looked... older now. Some of his hair were already white. The wrinkles on his forehead are very visible now, and I couldn't help but feel sad about it. I don't like seeing Dad this... old, but I know that it's inevitable to happen. And whether I like it or not, he will really turn old.Almost two years of not seeing my father personally, it now shows how it was hard for him to be fighting for the company alone. I felt guilty for letting him face everything alone, but... I wasn't ready too. I wasn't ready to show off after that heartbreaking moment for me. I couldn't handle anot
