Briar’s POV

“Is there something that I am missing, Briar?” Liam inquired calmly.

I cleared my throat loudly, “You aren’t missing anything, Liam. I just don’t think I want to relocate to somewhere like Atlanta. I would just rather be here. You can assign someone else to the project.”

Liam tapped his feet on the floor, moving his head slowly as if listening to some music. The silence was beginning to get on my nerves, I could feel my insides churning. The atmosphere in the room went from cheery

    Adrian’s POV“What did you find?” I mumbled into the phone, pausing slightly to hear the response. “Hmmn….under his name? Alright. That will be all for now., but keep looking.” I instructed before ending the call. A tired exhale escaped my nostrils as I got out of the car. My entire body feels stiff. I could not sleep last night. How could I when there are so many questions that need answers? Seeing Briar once again in a light different from how I remember her baffles me. To think she is with Liam. And that child? That is supposed to be my child. It is almost unbelievable that she cheated on me and eloped with her lover. At the same time, his background reads otherwise. I don’t know how she found herself along that road or how they met. Regardless of what the answers might be, I am not going to back out. Briar is still my wife! Gnashing my teeth, I stomped towards the elevator, shutting my eyes tightly with my head bowed as I entered and leaned against the wall. I soon felt someone

    Briar’s POV“Knox is such a handful when he wants to be. I almost ran out of breath. He reminded me just how much I needed to visit the gym.” Liam laughed hard as he narrated his ordeal with Knox at the water park yesterday. I chortled, staring at the boy who had refused to leave Liam’s arm even though he was still asleep. “I don’t know how to thank you enough for your patience with Knox, Liam. He enjoys your company so much.” Liam held up a smile, staring down at Knox's pile of black hair. “I enjoy his company just as much. With him, I get to just be. No hard thoughts or wondering if I am doing something right or not. He is a sweet child.” I sighed, holding up a smile. Knowing Knox has a person like Liam in his life to make him enjoy the beauty of family makes me feel constantly at ease. “Are you okay now?” Liam halted my thought. I looked up at him, confused. “I mean, you weren’t looking too good on Friday. I was just wondering if you want to talk about it?” I scratched the bac

    Adrian’s POV“She did what?” Eric blurted. I kissed my teeth, twirling the half-filled beer can in my hand. “I could not believe the audacity myself. She didn’t seem bothered about whatever it was I thought about her. Those eyes are completely different from what I used to know.” “I will be damned! How did you keep this to yourself for two days without telling me?” “Did you expect me to start throwing such words around on the phone?” Eric bobbed his head. “That is correct. What do you plan to do with this big reveal?” I bit down on my lip staring into space. I have been dazed for the past two days unsure of what my thoughts really are. After dropping Isadora off at her place from the hospital, I called the office to get Briar’s house address. But I couldn’t bring myself to drive over to her place. I was at a crossroads. Wondering what I will say to her. She practically mocked me to my face and was certain that I wouldn’t be able to do anything about it. And the look on her face w

    Briar’s POVI let out a frustrated groan, kicking my feet against the floor. What have I done? I should have controlled my anger. I just let it get the best of me and now I have to learn the hard way. I grabbed my hair tightly, wishing I could pull it out. “Will you stop that already!” Rissa rebuked, slapping my hand from my hair. “You will go bald at this point. Take this and sober up.” She handed me a bottle of water. I opened it and poured it down my throat a bit too fast, and I almost choked on it. “Easy, Briar!” I coughed lightly, putting the bottle down. “I just can’t seem to think straight. I can’t believe I just ruined my own life. What do you think he would do now? He will definitely have me thrown out of the company and blscklisted” “He wouldn’t do that, I am sure.” “You don’t know, Adrian he is not to be toyed with.”“Yet, you went all out to tickle him.”“He started it,” I whined“But you don’t own a company.”“You are not helping, Rissa.” I huffed, kicking the air.

    Adrian’s POV“Is she okay?” I asked the doctor. “Yes, she is fine. She passed out due to shock. Once she is well rested she will be alright. You can take her home soon after getting her prescriptions.” He replied. “Thank you.” I let out a long sigh when he left, staring at Isadora who was still sleeping. The past few hours have been hectic. Briar’s sudden outburst, revealing her identity with no ounce of shame, and Isadora passing out in shock, make me a bit destabilized. I expected Briar to be sorry for ghosting me for years, making me believe that she was truly gone from my life. Her mannerisms had me in stitches. She appears bolder and unbothered. Nothing like the Briar that I used to know. She was always so shy and tried hard to please me. What happened to her? “Adrian?” Isadora mumbled my name, pulling me out of my thoughts. “Oh, you are awake. How are you feeling?” I helped her sit up. She nodded gently. “Better, I think. How did I get here?” “You passed out. But the doct

    Briar’s POV“Briar….” Adrian whispered, staggering backwards a little with a flash of hurt in his eyes. I kissed my teeth, combing my hair with my fingers as I turned around a bit before looking back at him. His face seemed to have lost a bit of its color. His pretense only made me disgusted. “Cut out the act! You knew from the start and that is why you chose to make my life miserable by putting my hard work to waste. What I don’t understand is why you are even interested in my life. The last time I checked, you don’t give two fucks about me. So what is this?” I bellowed. Adrian gasped and grabbed a fistful of his hair. He looked disheveled. “Briar! Is this some sick joke? How can you stand in front of me alive and well when we all think that you died in that accident! Do you know what you have done? Was there even an accident at all? Or was it planned out to make a fool of me?” “Everything was always about you. You are still the same distasteful asshole. I can’t even imagine what
