Chapter 16

PIPER'S POV

A few weeks later, with the little knowledge I was able to gather from working with Anna, I started on something with the hopes that it would actually help me take care of myself and my baby without Anna's help. She really helped me by encouraging me all the way and pitching my ideas to bigger brands and companies.

On an auspicious day, while I was in my bedroom sitting and looking out the window, lost in thoughts on what to do with my life and how to push my brand forwa

  • THE COLD CEO UNKNOWN HEIR   Chapter 33

    Chapter 33.Piper Pov.His face was thin like he could read through my tough skin and see how anxious I was breaking in so badly.“Is there something I should know?”. His words are almost unbelievable.Something he should know in what sense?.I swallowed hard then answered forcing my eyes to look straight but I couldn't hold up for long, it kept on blinking repeatedly making me more nervous.Jace stared at me like he wanted me to say something so he could start from there.“Are you sure you're being honest on a lot of things?”. He asked again like he was certain I was hiding something.I opened my mouth to say the words then closed it again. Jace was pretty smart and anyway, a long move from my end would get me busted and I don't want any of that at least not now.“I'm not hiding anything from you but if there's something you heard and you need clarity then I'm all ears”. My voice is thin.“Uhm”. He stood there like a man who knows so much but decided to play numb and I felt really un

    Chapter 31 Piper's POV The next morning, I woke up to a bright light shining on my face. My mind skipped at first but as I slowly opened my eyes, I realized it was just the sunlight cracking through the window curtains. In an instant, the memories of what transpired between Mr Langford and I last night flooded my head. “Ugh…” I groaned. A sharp tingle sparked in my legs and just as I was about to check out what it was, I felt a sudden rush of irritation rise up in my stomach and move all the way up to my throat. My eyes widened in shock and fear at the same but before I could even think, a bitter taste filled my mouth. I pushed my duvet off and jumped out of bed, diving straight into the bathroom. A loud, guttural retching sound boomed from my mouth as I emptied the content of my stomach into the sink. My head suddenly went light…almost like I was afloat for a minute. My hands wobbled, barely managing to hold on to the door. The hair on my skin rose immediately. “Am I dying?”

    Chapter 30Ethan's POV “What the hell?!” I jumped out of my seat as a thick cloud of rage filled my eyes instantly. My chest raced faster than it ever had in months. I couldn't believe my ears. A sauna was nothing compared to how hot the room was. “What the hell do you mean she's with Jace Langford?” I screeched on top of my voice. Mike wasn't responding but my entire body was literally shaking, I could barely even feel myself at that point. “I….i….she….” “Fucking speak clearly you dumbass. What the hell did you see?” I slammed at him with rage. A light whimper in the dark reminded me of Selena's presence in my office. “She's with Jace Langford, sir. She works for him as a designer.” He finally opened his god-damned mouth. Hell hath no fury hotter than the one boiling in my chest. Why did it have to be Jace Langford of all people in the world?!That bastard who cost me the position of the richest man in the country! His egoistic smirk flashed in my head and fuck! It took a lo

    Chapter 29. Ethan's POV My hand gripped the rear of my mouse harder, the heat in my office fanning my skin. I traced my fingers along the line on the mouse while my lips remained tightly pursed as my eyes took in the scene playing before my eyes. Piper stabbing Christopher in the chest with what seemed like a hidden knife…the desperation and raw….unfiltered rage in her eyes sent shivers down my spine. My breath was stuck in my lungs, unable to grasp the thought of my ex-wife being an expert fighter. That was the only way I could explain her escape from Christopher. But I'd never seen her so furious. Had she hiding something from me during our marriage? Was there more to the innocent little Piper that I tried to break with my words? My hands slowly crossed over to my thighs, gripping them tight. After staring at nothing else but my computer screen for hours, I didn't need any more explanation about why Christopher desperately wanted to get his hands on Piper. And I had to get

    Chapter 28Piper's POV “Piper, you can't keep yourself locked in all day.” Mr Langford's voice bellowed outside the door. Inside my room, I buried my head even deeper under the sheets and bit my lips hard until the sour taste of blood stained my tongue. I still couldn't fathom why I had behaved like a rabid dog on heat. My heart started to pick up faster beats at the sound of his voice. I closed my second, wishing he would just leave me to wallow in my misery. My hands swiftly covered my ears when I heard him knocking again. I almost cussed at him to leave but I couldn't bring myself to do it. I remained that way for a while, with my heart slamming against my ribcage until I slowly decided to pull away and to my surprise, I could no longer hear him. Silence swallowed my room and without being told, I pushed the cover away, with my heart in my mouth and slowly sat up. “Did he really leave?” I thought to myself, feeling a mix of relief and emptiness. I wanted him to leave, right
