I dropped a message for Sage asking if she wouldn’t mind joining me for lunch at the Chinese garden restaurant.There was no response.I figured she was resting, so I picked up my car keys and walked out, only to come face-to-face with Janice and Vivian engaging in a shouting match.“What the hell is going on here?” I snapped, cutting short the bickering between the two women.Janice walked over to me. “Miss Sullivan wanted to force her way in despite telling her you were in an important meeting.“Kaid, this is not the first time I’ve been to your office. Why is she putting up airs? This is not the first time she’s disrespected me.” Vivian fumed, pointing fingers at Janice.“And who the hell do you think you are to quarrel with my staff? I was in an important meeting. What do you want and why are you here?”“Kaid, why are you angry at me all of a sudden? Fine, I wanted to visit y
“Argh,” I winced, trying to get up from bed. My body ached so badly. Damn, Kaid, for being such a beast. He had carried me off to bed despite my protest, refusing to let go even when Vivian herself had knocked on my door a few times. Every time he asked if I still wanted a divorce and I said yes, he thrusted deeper, making me scream his name repeatedly until I was left breathless and a hopeless mess beneath him. I managed to sit up, wincing at the same time when the door of the closet flung open. Kaid walked out looking impossibly handsome and immaculately clean in a black suit, white shirt, and burgundy tie. “You’re awake,” His voice was clear and his stride sharp as he walked over towards me. The strong smell of his cologne drifted over me, making me close my eyes momentarily, inhaling his scent. He smelled nice. When I opened my eyes, he was staring at me. His gaze flickered to my lips, and he kissed me suddenly. The kiss was light and soft, lingering just enough to make me si
“Oh, scared now aren’t we?” Sage snickered when she noticed Vivian’s expression. Vivian was currently shaking. Her face was so pale, it was as though she had seen a ghost. I couldn’t help but wonder how fast her brain was probably working in the midst of her fear. She would probably be thinking of how to get hold of any evidence as soon as possible, so I wouldn’t know that she had pushed Sage back then. Well, news flash! We already knew. After what seemed like forever, Sage released her hold on Vivian and pushed her forward slightly. Vivian immediately grabbed the railing and held on to it for her dear life. “Seeing you like this, it just occurred to me that you’re spineless and worthless. A complete waste of my time. But know this, me and you, we’re completely different. I don’t have to resort to vile tactics to get at someone. And I just as well won't murder an innocent child in the process. Get lost!” Sage turned on her heel and stormed back towards our bedroom while I went afte
The world stopped, then tilted, and in a split second, everything came crashing down at once. “Sage, it’s not what you think,” I spoke out, pushing Vivian off before rushing out of bed. “Like hell it’s not what I think, Kaid. You’re disgusting, and to think I thought you’d changed. So, all this time, you were playing me again?” She fumed and stormed off. Her robe billowed slightly as she walked out furiously. “No, Sage, wait, please—” I rushed out, grabbing her arm before she could take another step. “I’ve changed. I thought it was you for a moment. I had no idea Vivian sneaked into our bed. I swear, you have to believe me.” I pleaded, pulling her close while I desperately pleaded. I couldn’t have her mind turning against me, not when we’ve worked so hard to get here. With Vivian’s pregnancy, our relationship was hanging by a thread, and now it was clear that the thread had been cut. She scoffed and looked at me. Her green eyes were blazing with anger. “I’m supposed to believe thi
“What the hell are you doing here, Vivian?” I snapped. She paused momentarily in her tracks, stunned that I would raise my voice at her before smiling sweetly.“Kaid, you don’t have to pretend since it’s just the three of us. Sage already knows about our relationship and—”“That is not what I asked,” I snapped. “You need to leave right now. I don’t care what stupid excuse you’ve got,”“Come on kaid, I get it. You’re trying to make it up to Sage after she lost her baby, but you don't have to take it out on me and our child. The doctors already said this period is very critical, and I should be careful and avoid stress. You heard it yourself.” She folded her arms and looked away, looking offended.“You went with her to the hospital?” Sage spoke. Her voice was low, but there was no mistaking the fire in it.I froze, then swallowed and turned my attention to her. She looked like I betrayed her.The way she looked at me ripped me open and stripped me bare.‘Sage—” I tried to explain, but s
The moment I stepped into the living room, I was greeted by the faint smell of delicious food coming from the kitchen. A faint smile tugged at the corner of my lips at the thought of Sage whipping something nice for us again, so I walked over to the kitchen to see her, hoping to catch her in a good mood. However, my smile turned into a quick scowl when it wasn’t Sage but Loren. “Where’s my wife?” Loren turned to me, slightly startled. “Mr. Greyson, you’re back. Mrs. Greyson went to the rooftop.” “Ah, I see,” I mumbled quietly and left for our bedroom, pulling off my tie as I took the stairs. Then my phone rang. It was my dad. “Hello, Dad,” “Are you home? Elizabeth just told me Sage wants a divorce. What’s going on, Kaid? I thought you guys were good,” His voice sounded shocked, tinged with worry. “We’ll figure it out, Dad,” I replied, opening the door to the bedroom as a tired sigh escaped my lips. “What’s there to figure out when Vivian is pregnant?” I had to remove the phone
