CHAPTER 10

Sebastian

Everyone was quiet as if awaiting a verdict of a court case including Emily, who stood at the far corner, her eyes wide like a deer caught in the headlights, so out of her depth.

"Let me be clear, I don't know what is inside this letter but I can assure you it's not Robert's inheritance, he had already given me a set date for that, these are just some simple things he wants to give to avoid strife and also there some conditions that must be followed accordingly, Clear?"

"You may proceed Mr. Morris."

My Mother urged.

"To my darling wife," he handed a letter to my Mother, she was barely keeping the tears at bay.

"Are you okay Mom?" I asked.

She nodded and reached out for my hand.

"I'm okay." she sniffed.

"To Soph, my baby girl," Sophia perked up.

"I wish he'd give me the clothing line in New York or something," she grumbled and took the letter.

"Soph," I warned.

"To Theodore, my son."

Theo's head snapped up.

"Wait, what?"

"He gets something too?" Michael m

    CHAPTER NINE Emily's POV Once upon a time, I thought I'd be thrilled to be in the audience when Sebastian Crest would experience a trickle of pain just as I had endured pains inflicted by him through the years. But as I witnessed his breaking point I felt a strange sense of pity. The door opened, revealing Theo's panic features. "Em, I heard the noise…""I don't know what happened to him–""Can you give us a minute?" "Of- of course." Frazzled, I nodded rapidly. I stood on jelly legs and headed for the door."Seb, buddy, let's get you some meds alright?" Theo's timbre voice coaxed. As if he was speaking to a child.I silently walked through the quiet hallway, down the stairs into the now empty living room. It was as if a dark and gloomy cloud hung above the house now that all the guests had dispatched. I rubbed my arms as if feeling the loneliness on my skin, I also wanted to go home and pretend today never happened."Em," Kate approached me. "Kate, it's good that I found you," I

Black. were the shades scattered across the Crest Mansion backyard.After the downpour, the only activity the guest could engage in was to come out onto the carpeted backyard of the Crest Mansion, which stood on top of the rocky outcrop with a magnificent view of the estates below. I was assisting the house maids in dishing out drinks to the guests scattered about in twos, some were huddled in groups, while some walked around in expensive stilettos on the carpeted ground, each one of them decked out in their best outlandish costumes whispering to one another. I wondered if it was even right to wear such expensive shoes and classic ties to a funeral when the dead were, well…too dead to notice. I handed champagne to one of the guests who then asked why she wasn't given the famous muffin. "Go join the line if you want one," I replied with a snide remark and ignored her shocked expression. I was enraged because, amongst all the guests only half of th

    CHAPTER SEVEN Emily's POV I pushed through the glass hospital doors, past the busy lobby flooding with patients, who were being wheeled around on wheelchairs by their guardians, some could barely walk but were managing to while some were supported by impatient nurses who threw a glare and raised their voices at them once every few seconds. My heart thumped faster and I briskly hurried after Sam, who came to my rescue after the spectacle Sophia showcased. Now we can't get a hold of her. Sam was leading me straight to the VIP hallway, I immediately straightened my spine and prepared my mind for Sebastian's temper and how to thaw it. I clutched my iPad just in case I needed a counter plan. Sam swiped the card key and the wooden door slid open, he entered but I stopped. Before I could summon the courage to step in, Sebastian opened the door. I inhaled sharply at the stone-cold look in his vacant eyes. His stubbled jaw tightened, his hair was mussed as if he had repeatedly run his h

  • Something In Between Love    Death

    CHAPTER SIX Who knew when I left the house twenty minutes ago I would witness the death of one of the most powerful men to ever live in his mansion after a heated argument with his arrogant son? It was like a movie playing out in front of me except I was part of this movie. Maybe even the main character. I watched in slow motion as Sebastian, on his knees beside his Father's bed, attempted to revive him with CPR, though it looked like a futile activity since his body was already rigid, his face pale, and most importantly, he wasn't breathing. "Come on, Father come on!" he repeatedly hits his chest. "Asher, Asher snap out of it and get on the phone with Doctor Will!" His desperate call shook me out of my reverie, this was not the same, what happened years ago couldn't possibly be happening again- not to Robert, not to one of the kindest free-spirited people I had ever known. I quickly dialed his Doctor's number when his Mother rushed into the room holding a tray, which immedia

    CHAPTER 5Emily's POV I entered my two-bedroom apartment and immediately I could hear them. I hurriedly marched up to Emma's room and the argument intensified. I hurriedly went back to our open turquoise-colored kitchen grabbed a knife hanging on the kitchen wall and gently stalked toward Emma's room. "Let go of me you piece of shit!" I watched as Emma struggled with a man twice her size, she wore a shirt barely covering her buttocks. The room was scattered with torn books and papers, pillow cotton everywhere–as if a went off in the room. Giovanni stood above her like a growing shadow. "Where is it, Emma? Where did you hide it?!" "I'm not telling you!" Emma's nose flared and her busted lips looked like they would split more if she said another word. He raised his hand to hit her."I'll chop your hand off if you touch my sister again." They both stilled at my voice. I approached them with a knife pointed at Giovanni. His dark sweaty chest heaved with heavy breaths as he releas
