“Back so soon?” I smiled but Nick's face wasn’t of someone who looked very pleased to be back as he smiled before he threw a punch on my face that made me go flying back hitting the floor with a thud.
“Get him up,” he ordered and I was up again shaking the punch before he punched me again and the chair tilted but I managed to hold it but that was to no avail but he punched me again and the chair hit the floor and I saw stars.
“Gahh,” I muffled, blinking.
“Bring him up,” he ordered. He sounded angrier than his usual self. I tried to shake off the dizziness. I looked at him, “Where is it?” He asked.
“Where is what?” I coughed, spitting blood. I fixed my jaw. Those punches did hurt.
“Try again,
James I was waiting for the media to disperse so I could get into Morgan’s mansion and speak to him. It seemed as though people were still waiting for them to come out again and give another statement. I was tapping on my steering wheel as I waited. Maybe it was a good idea to wait until the people were gone. This is not how I pictured my day would go but I needed information that I knew Morgan would provide. I began thinking of Kioni and how she was doing. I hoped she would wake up soon and help. I hated that Nick was close to her after causing her such harm. I began thinking about everything from the beginning when I met her. The day at the office she looked so beautiful the way she smiled and talked to me. I want that to happen once again. I long for a call to hear she was up and talking again. I wonder who she would call fir
Morgan “I must say I’m surprised you are only showing up now,” I smirked as I watched James walk in looking like he had other things to do than being here. “I would have been here sooner but you seem to draw a lot of attention,” he replied. “Well, what can I say? I'm popular,” I say, extending my hand out, gesturing to him to have a seat and he did. “What is your deal?” he asked, leaning forward on his seat as he clamped his hands together looking at me seriously. “What do you mean?” “You know exactly what I mean. You are innocent and have evidence and yet you want to be treated like a suspect.” “Is this an interrogation?” I interrupt as James shifts
James I was hopeful when Morgan mentioned her and smiled at me. My heart stopped as I attentively looked at him waiting. I had waited so long to hear that she was awake that I wanted to get out of my seat and run to the hospital. I didn’t care that it was late at night to have a visit. I wanted to see her. See her beautiful face and those gorgeous big brown eyes of hers. “Not yet,” Morgan finally responded and my face fell, “I know she will wake up eventually,” he gave me a genuine smile as I nodded. “So who is this person?” I asked, leaning back on my seat. “Her name is Lara,” Morgan said as if I knew her. “I don’t know her,” I looked at him as he took a while to respond. Thinking. “She was a fl
Nick I have no idea how my father handled this business and dealt with personal life. After everything that happened with Adam all I wanted was to beat the shit out of him until he told me who was helping him. Instead of sitting here going through paperwork I needed to find that damn bracelet. I needed to have a chat with my father. I hated that after everything I never knew about this. “Dani, bring me a coffee,” I spoke after pressing the intercom but there was silence, “DANI,” I shouted through the com again before I heard a knock, “ENTER,” I spoke a little annoyed as Dani walked in. “If you don’t have coffee, get out,” I said. “Uhh, th -there is someone here for you,” I shifted. “I don’t have time to see anyone. Get me my coffee and go home,” I waved a hand at her as I looked down at t
Nick I was happy with my visit to the hospital. Seeing her always puts me in a great mood. As it was late, I never went back to the office. Tomorrow is when I will deal with everything else. I was glad to go home and see my father. We had a lot of things to discuss and he had to tell me about the bracelet. “Nick,” I heard a shout as my car was driving in. “Nick,” Judy shouted. “Stop the car,” I said. The car stopped and rolled down my window. Judy came running before she huffed at me. She could be angry all she wanted, but it was useless. She didn’t have any right to be on my property after she left that day. I meant what I told her. “You are not even going to get out. What are you doing?” She asked, “They won’t let me in to see dad. I
Harper My brother being suspended was the worst. It’s not even a week and he has almost destroyed the house in the name of managing. The worst is that he is like a wait at home dad, and he wants to monitor my every move too. It was annoying as hell. “Where are you going?” James caught me by the steps with a pan in hand. “Out,” I responded, looking at him, “What are you cooking,” I frowned with a sigh. “When will you be back?” he asked, stirring the blob in the pan. “I don’t know James. It’s Saturday and just after twelve. Later, maybe,” I shrugged as I rolled my eyes. “Not before the sun comes down,” he pointed with a spoon. “I’m not a child,”
Morgan “That was the plan,” James shouted looking angry. “Yes, it was her - “ “I need you to shut that thing down,” he looked at me, “I am not letting that poor woman anywhere near him. Did you hear everything he said to her,” James was pacing up and down. “Yes,” I nodded. “Why are you calm?” he looked at me, his face puzzled. He paused as he blinked looking at me before his face looked at me accusingly. “Ok, nice guy. Calm down. This was all her idea. I never told her to do that,” I defended. “Really?” James raised a brow, “Because it looked like this was a well thought plan,” he added looking at me as he stopp
Harper I couldn’t keep the secret anymore. I was dying inside and I told Faith about it. She thought I was being paranoid but I was waiting for her to come here later after her brunch with her family. I was going to drive her around and make her see for herself. I couldn’t tell my brother yet because that would be a disaster. “Is there something you are not telling me,” I heard my brother walk into my room as my heart cracked. “What?” I grimaced as I looked at the flowers in his hand. “Why is Conrad sending you flowers?” he threw them by the bed. I pushed my laptop away and sat up intertwining my legs. For a moment I thought he knew that someone was following me and I never told him. We had promised to be honest with each other but both of us have been failing miserably.
