“Sebastian, Diego is teasing me again,” Charlotte yelled from the kitchen. Diego immediately dropped the banana which he had been using to describe how slim Charlotte was and proceeded to make his way out of the kitchen. However, he was not fast enough as Sebastian came into the kitchen before he could run out of it. The cold and menacing glare of his brother told him that he was in big trouble. “Hey brother, how are you doing today?” he asked with a smile on his face, hoping Sebastian would forgive him.This trick always walked on Danielle and so, he was hoping the same from Sebastian. However, Sebastian was having none of it. “How many times have I told you not to come to my house uninvited?” he asked. “Brother, you don’t want me to come here without you asking me to but yet you allow Danielle? That’s not fair. Don’t you love me anymore?” Diego asked and put his hand on his chest pretending to be hurt. Danielle who had been in the kitchen the entire time, finally spoke up. “Who
“You didn’t hold anything back last night so why are you acting cold all of a sudden?” Amy asked, rubbing salt into Sebastian's wound. “I swear, I'm going to kill you, Amy,” Sebastian said. “If you do, the picture and videos of what happened will automatically be sent to your dear wife,'' Amy retorted. She had nothing to lose anymore but Sebastian had everything to lose. “I wonder how she will react when she sees what you and I did and how aggressive you were with me.”‘Charlotte,’ Sebastian muttered to himself. How was he going to face her after what he had done? He still couldn’t understand what had come over him which made him sleep with Amy but all he cared about was Charlotte. He couldn’t lie to her about this; he had to tell her. But how was he going to gather the courage to tell her that he had slept with Amy. Amy smiled on seeing how conflicted Sebastian was. For once, she had rendered him speechless and it felt good. “You see, Sebastian, I won’t expose our little secret
"Sir, what do you think about the proposal the Hensmore company sent us?" One of the directors suddenly asked Sebastian, bringing him out of his thoughts. Diego looked at his brother nervously. He was afraid Sebastian would lose his temper again as that had been the norm for the past one month. Charlotte had still not regained consciousness as she was still in a coma. Sebastian had turned even more cold and distant. He rarely spoke to him anymore and when he did, it was to lash out at him. "I'll think about it and get back to you. The meeting is dismissed," Sebastian replied. He immediately got up from his seat and left the conference room for his office.As soon as he was inside his office, he looked at his phone hoping to see a missed call or a text from the hospital, informing him that Charlotte had finally come out of a coma but to his disappointment, there was none.Even after one month, she still hadn't opened her eyes. And every day of it was torture. He had so many thing
“Are you ready to leave?” Sebastian asked as he entered the room.Charlotte’s face contorted into a deep frown. “Why are you the one taking me home? I’m returning back to my family mansion and not to your house,” she reminded. After countless examinations by the doctors and multiple complaints by her that she hated staying in the hospital, the doctor finally gave her permission to go home. Sebastian walked closer to her. “Listen Charlotte, I know you don’t want to see me or have anything to do with me right now and I understand why but please, I'm begging you, just come back home with me,” he pleaded “We need to sit down and talk about what happened, then you can make your decision.”“Fine,” Charlotte agreed reluctantly.“Thank you,” Sebastian said. “Don’t thank me just yet sebastian. Either way, I'm going to divorce you," Charlotte said persistently and walked out of the room. Sebastian shook his head at how stubborn she was being. He picked her bag up and followed her out. They
Charlotte looked at Sebastian who was sleeping. It had taken a lot of effort to get him to fall asleep. Sebastian was at his weakest point as his family was against him and the one that affected him the most was Diego who had never acted that way towards him. Sebastian had refused to let go of her as he was afraid that she would leave him as well. But he was finally sleeping which gave her the opportunity to plan her next move. Charlotte slid out of the bed quietly as she didn’t want to wake Sebastian up. She grabbed her phone and went out of the room. She checked it and saw that she had received a message from Flynn. She didn’t waste any time and immediately called him. He picked up on the first ring. “Have you found him?” she asked straight to the point.“Yes, he was a tough one but nothing is impossible for me to handle,” Flynn boasted. “I can’t come to your base as it is too far so you’ll have to bring him to the other location tonight,” Charlotte informed. She looked back i
"Ma'am, we have arrived," Marcelo informed her. Charlotte looked up from her phone and saw that they had arrived at the Gerano company.Jonathan opened the door and Charlotte got down. "Not a word to Sebastian about what happened today, or I'll tell Flynn to feed you both to his dogs," Charlotte threatened.Marcelo and Jonathan gulped and followed her inside the building. Everyone who was there when Charlotte entered stopped what they were doing and turned to look at her. Some had judgmental stares on their faces, but Charlotte couldn't care less. None of them had the guts to walk up to her and confront her unless they wanted to lose their jobs.She arrived at the last floor moments later and headed straight into Sebastian's office. She locked the door after she entered his office as she didn't want anyone to disturb them. It was not like anyone would be able to get past Johnathan and Marcelo but she just wanted to be double secured.Charlotte turned and found Sebastian leaning his
The car drove through the gates of the Gerano Mansion, and five minutes later, they arrived at Sebastian’s mansion. He turned and looked at the sleeping woman who was beside him.She was so exhausted that by the time they left his office, she was already asleep. He had to carry her down to his car, and she didn’t even wake up.“Leave the car running, and you both should get out,” Sebastian ordered. Jonathan and Marcelo did as Sebastian instructed, and they got out of the car.Sebastian rested his head on Charlotte and started running his fingers through her hair. This action made Charlotte subconsciously snuggle closer to him.“Thank you for staying with me; I’d be a lost soul without you,” he whispered to her. And he meant every word of what he said. She was the only one who stood by him even though he had hurt her deeply. He wouldn’t have been able to bounce back up after what Amy did, but she somehow gave him the strength to keep going.“I promise to be a better man,” he said an
Sebastian paced around his cell room anxiously. However, he was not anxious because he was in prison. His worry was for Charlotte and how she was doing. None of his cellmates dared to mess with him as they knew what he was capable of, even while he was locked behind bars. Not knowing how Charlotte was doing was killing him. Where the hell was Diego with their lawyer? He should have already been here. A tap on the bars of his cell snapped him out of his thoughts. It was the guard. He opened the cell and said, “Mr Gerano, your brother is here to see you.”Sebastian walked out of the cell and followed the guard to where Diego and their family lawyer were waiting for him. “Why the hell did it take you so long to get here?!” Sebastian asked irritably. “The lawyer was trying to arrange bail for you,” Diego answered. “And?” Sebastian asked as he could tell there was more to the story. “I had to take care of our father. He had a heart attack when he heard what happened to you and Charl
