TERMS OF AFFECTION Chapter 132
Chapter 132 Author’s POV A brief explanation of how Jake and Hazel met. ——- Jake froze, standing by the window, hands trembled next to him, his parched throat itched and he clung to the trousers on his waist. “What did I just hear?” He pondered, beads of sweat plastered on his forehead, his chest thumping against his chest. In that moment, Jake’s eyes darted to the little girl who was dragged into this mess. The little girl who had clung to Annika the entire time, the little girl who he once hated because she had stolen Annika’s attention from him. Jake couldn’t tear his eyes off her for a moment and the dirty thought crossed his mind. “If Mirabel handles that girl, will Annika come back to me?” The words rang in his mind, over and over but they only made it hard for him to breath, the only made him shudder with disgust. “How did I end up like this?” He whispered to himself. “A man who would think about the death of a child for his own gain?” The words irked him, but not more

CHAPTER 131ANNIKAThe sound of the gunshot echoed, ringing in my head, over and over. I couldn’t hear anyone’s voice. Not Sophie, not Mirabel. Nothing.No.No.Every nerve of my body collapsed, like cold water was poured on my head, my body shivered.Sophie.Sophie.Sophie.I struggled, I jerked, I twisted my hands until I felt my bones crack, the pain traveling through every part of my body. The tears didn’t stop running, my hands didn’t stop trembling, my head didn’t stop ringing.Please Sophie…wait for me…please.Fuck!Fuck!I cried as I struggled, but no matter how much I moved, how hard I struggled, the rope wouldn’t break loose, it only caused more bruises, it only sent pain flowing through every corner of my body.I failed her. I failed my princess.The more I struggled to break free, the more the sound of the gunshot replayed in my head, the more memories of my little girl crossed my mind.Sophie is my precious baby girl. A child I never expected to come into my life. A child
TERMS OF AFFECTION CHAPTER 130
CHAPTER 130ISAIAHMy eyes followed the trail of blood lying on the floor, red, wet, recent. My knees grew weak at the sight. My brows crunched and my heart thumped so hard they hurt. My fist clenched as I stepped into the dark room.The eerie feeling sent shivers down my spine, horror flooded my body. Lying on the floor in the corner was a silver shoe, a shoe I recognized so well.“Guess what?” I remembered Annika’s soft voice as she sat on my bed, in her wine silk night dress. Her hair tied into a messy bun, her smile so bright, so warm. In her hands was a box, so fancy, its brand name boldly written on it.“What?” I asked, dropping the tablet in my hands, legs crossed on the bed. My free hands wrapped around her waist as I pulled her close to me, allowing me to take in her sweet fresh lily scent.“I went shoe shopping with my sister and Hazel today.” She muffled, “I picked the shoe I want to wear while walking down the aisle.” She muffled, her cheeks flushed, looking into my eyes w

CHAPTER 129ANNIKAThe sound of Mirabel’s laughter filled the empty dark room after the call. She laughed so hard, clutching her belly. Her eyes grew wet but she didn’t stop.The sound got blurred out and the only thing that played in my head over and over were the words that came out of my fiancé’s mouth.He was abandoning me.I have never actually placed myself on the same scale with Sophie before, because she is his daughter, she will always be his little girl but still…it hurts…it hurt so much.“What were you expecting?” She asked, “Did you think he was going to choose you? Risking his daughter?”My fist clenched around my dress.“Don’t you get it? Sophie is the bane of our existence, as long as she is alive, Isaiah will never love anyone else. Just like how he abandoned me, he just abandoned you. This is what you get.”“Stop…talking.” I sneered. Sophie was awake, she could hear everything.“Stop running your mouth.” She hissed.She rolled her eyes, “You never learn.” She grumble

CHAPTER 128ANNIKABeads of sweat plastered over my forehead as my mind played Mirabel’s conversation, over and over in my head.Did I hear her right?Did my ear play jokes on me?She is going to kill me? And her daughter? After collecting that huge money from Isaiah?The more I recalled, the more absurd it sounded. Sophie is her daughter, a child she bore out of her, how can she harbor such thoughts towards her own daughter?“Mummy?” Sophie’s low voice crept up my skin. She had been glued to me the entire time. Her face buried into my dress, clinging to me.“Yes, baby.” I muffled.“Are we going to be okay?” She asked, her eyes found mine. Her eyelids filled with tears.I wanted to tell her that we would be okay, that Daddy was coming to save us but the words didn’t come out of my mouth, no matter how much I wanted to assure her, I couldn’t find the words.My palms were sweaty, my heart kept thumping hard, my head hurt, and I was scared.I am so scared.“Is Daddy going to come save us

Chapter 127 ISAIAH My fist clenched around the wheel, eyes locked on the locked gate in front of me. My legs pulsed around the accelerator.“Sir…Sir!” the guy called out, I understand why Dante refused to see me, hell, I do not blame him for not wanting to speak to me but I did not come all this way, only to turn back without getting the help I came for. Have it your way, Dante. I hit the accelerator and drove right through the gate, bursting it open. The other guys pulled out their guns, aiming at my car but not a single one of them pulled the trigger, their eyes were glued to the car, guards up but not a single shot was fired. My car halted in front of a group of people gathered at the center of the driveway. Before my car, stood a man, late thirties, sleeves rolled up, gun in his hands, his broad sculpted back turned to me. In front of him, were two guys, kneeling, broken teeth, bleeding head. Barely able to stand on their own. It wasn’t something unexpected. It’s Dante afte
