Mom didnt say another word for a while, she just stood there, arms crossed as she looked at me and wondered if she should really say what was on her mind or if that would throw me over the edge.

She cleared her throat and then said, "I took care of the problem and erased it."

She didnt even need to say another word for me to know the truth, and the truth pissed me off.

"You did what?" I asked, eyes narrowing as my brain wanted to explode with anger. I knew my mother could be cruel but I have never imagined that she would go to that length just to destroy something that I had cared about so deeply.

My mother, capable of murder? It was something I couldn't believe even in a thousand years but yet somehow, it was the same thing I had come to see as being my reality.

"Don't look at me like that okay. You were being bewitched by that devil. You had no idea what you were doing, you needed to be free and you needed to rest. What you needed at that time was focus, you didnt need some rec

  • The Forgotten Bride   CHAPTER TWENTY: CLOSED DEAL

    I urged my feet to walk again but this time, the more I walked the more I looked at the man that was suddenly in front of me. My brain still tried to understand why Liam was here. This time, I could not look at him as just Liam. No, this was Mr. Steele, CEO of SteeleTech, billionaire and from what I heard, a serial cheat. I could not do anything about that but thinking about him in that light did soften the blow in my chest and for the first time, I actually felt stay and do the work. He did not look to me like someone I could actually be attracted to and he even seemed disgusting to me. This meant that I could work with him without feeling any pitch of sadness. So I forced a very polite smile, held out my hand and said "Welcome to Anioxnet, Mr. Steele. My name is Raye Carter and I am the CEO." I was hoping that somehow he may remember me but he did not and I did not want to push him seeing as I was not even sure of what I wanted from him. I couldn't rightfully tell if the man lov

  • The Forgotten Bride   CHAPTER NINETEEN: SEEING HIM

    I simply nodded my head as I tried my best to respond to everyone that greeted me. They did that thing that everyone always did when the boss was walking in. They scrambled around in fear, hoping that my eyes wont catch one dreadful stuff that they had done and tell them to meet the HR to get their termination letter. I knew I had my poker face on so none of them could actually see the excitement in me. I was giggling like a little girl inside, after all i was about to sign a contract that will definitely change my life for the better. How could I be upset on a day like that? I had to stuck everything up and just do the needful. Nothing else apart from my son mattered. I got to my office and sat on my seat. Then I closed my eyes and said a little prayer like I always do. After my prayers, I heard a knock on the door. I knew it would be none other than Jules so I kept mute and the lady walked in. Someday I would have to tell her to always wait for my command before coming into my ro

  • The Forgotten Bride   CHAPTER EIGHTEEN: THE GHOST IN THE BOARDROOM

    Amara’s POVThe sun coming in from the window woke me up and I strecthed on my bed. It has been another night of dreaming about this man. It felt like he would never actually stop haunting me. The thought of that never sat well with me but I knew that there was only so much I could do. I could go ahead and get my memories wiped away like he did but then I would have to struggle to remember my only son and that wasnt something I wanted to do. So to make it easier for myself, I kept mute and told myself to endure the pain for my son’s sake and everytime I looked at his face, it was worth it. I have found out that what they said was totally wrong. Time does not heal all wounds, it just teaches you how to better wrap your scars. It teaches you to dress them in designer blazers, mask them with poise and bury all of it underneath boardroom bravado. It never healed it. Five years ago, all I knew myself as was the woman who was bleeding out in the rain and crying as she watched the love o

  • The Forgotten Bride   CHAPTER SEVENTEEN: MY PRICED POSSESSION

    No one would ever find out about Amara because I had made sure she died under that rain. As soon as I was sure that Liam had truly forgotten about me, I made sure to kill her. I know there was a part of me that wanted to come back to his arms and look for him even after everything that was done to me but when I looked at my son, I knew he deserved better. He deserved to have a father who wanted him from the beginning Not one that I would have to lure my way back into his arms. I knew that he deserved better and I was going to give him that. I looked up at Jules one more time. "What can I do to help you?" I asked in a plain tone but we both know that I cared about her deeply. "The reports from Japan are in. They want us to handle everything about their new project and they need you to come down there to sign some papers and get started.""No, I wont be doing that," I told you in a strict tone. "Okay, Raye this company is one of the biggest we can work with, we cant be making terms

  • The Forgotten Bride   CHAPTER SIXTEEN: THE FORGOTTEN TOWN

    I could still remember every single thing that had happened. It was almost as if the thought of what happened refused to let me be, it haunted me till I gave in and begin thinking about it. I could remember the way Liam looked at me the night before our wedding. I could still remember how passionate his vows were, how they drove me to tears and how he had softly used his hands to clean the tears from my eyes. I could remember all of it. The cabin in the woods that we hid in, I could still remember the way the whole world burned behind us while we clunged on to each other for our dear lives. At that point, we did not need anyone else. We had all we needed with ourseleves. All we needed was each other and we had that.But just as the good memories kept coming to me, the bad ones did not run from me either. I could vividly remember the way this man forgot me. I could remember the way he stared at me blankly like I was someone he could never be with. I could remember his cold voice as h

  • The Forgotten Bride   CHAPTER FIFTEEN: THE RETURN OF RAYE CARTER

    "Earth to Raye," the voice of my assistant Jules brought me back to reality and reminded me that we were in my office looking over some documents. I knew I had asked for this but right now, I was wondering if I would be able to survive in the same town as the man who had once owned every part of me. I knew he was still here. I had my man dig up every information they could get about him and it was just as I had expected. He was happily married with his wife Ivy but they did not have a child. I had sometimes lay awake in my bed, wondering how he treated her. Was he nice to her? Did he tell her the same lies he told me? When he was saying it to her, were they lies or did he mean every single word? Why didnt they have a child yet? Did Ivy not want anything to happen to her petite body? Or did Liam love her so much that he did not want to watch her go through the pain of child birth? Maybe if he had seen what I went through and also saw the miracle of life, he would have had a differen
