"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
Charlotte stole a glance from Sebastian who was driving for the umpteenth time. She wanted to say something but she didn’t know how to say it. “I know I'm handsome but you don’t have to make it obvious that you’re smitten by my good looks,” Sebastian boasted confidently. “Shut up! I’m not looking at you because you’re good looking. What the hell are you going to do?" Charlotte asked. After getting back from seeing his father, Sebastian told her to get dressed as they were going to pay a visit to Amy at her press conference. She understood what he meant by that but she didn’t know what stunt he was going to pull and the suspense was killing her.“You’ll see when we get there," Sebastian said mischievously. “Okay then Mr Gerano, you have two options; either tell me what your plan is or don’t bother touching me for a month.”Sebastian stepped on the brakes when he heard what Charlotte said. He looked at her in disbelief. “You’re joking right?” He asked.“Why not find out the hard way
Charlotte could feel the peaceful atmosphere even while in her sleep. Everything was beautiful; she could feel Sebastian close to her, which normally would have made her feel at ease, but not tonight. Something was wrong.Unable to fight the feeling any longer, she opened her eyes and sat up, scanning the room.There was absolutely nothing to be afraid of, so why the hell was she feeling that way? It had to be all in her head, as nothing could happen to her while she was in the Gerano Mansion. Charlotte heard the soft snores of Sebastian beside her. She turned and saw him sleeping peacefully, oblivious to her turmoil. She took her time to observe his features. She indeed had a really handsome husband. Just as she was about to go back to sleep, she had that terrible feeling once again. She heard something vibrating in the room, and this startled her. She turned and grabbed her phone from the light stand. It was three in the morning, and yet, an unknown number was calling her. Ch
