The Moon Beyond His Reach Chapter 9
Graham grabbed Jennifer by her clothes and nearly shoved her completely over the edge.The freezing wind whipped across her face, and at that moment, she finally understood the terrifying truth: Graham really wanted to kill her.Terror filled her eyes as she clung desperately to the rooftop railing."Graham, I'm sorry!" she pleaded. "Please, don't do this! I'm carrying your baby!"But the mention of the baby only seemed to make him angrier. He was about to push her over when the police finally arrived.Several officers rushed onto the rooftop and wrestled Graham away from her. The reporters who had come to cover Jennifer's earlier threat to jump had captured the entire breakdown on camera, and footage of Graham's violent outburst spread across the internet almost immediately.The new scandal sent the Whitmore Group into an even deeper crisis, and the company was soon on the verge of bankruptcy.Margaret fell ill from the stress. Eventually, she came to me again, begging me to sa

But Jennifer suddenly seemed convinced she'd found someone willing to take her side.Triumph gleamed in her eyes as she looked at me, though every word she spoke was still laced with venom."Luna, I'm begging you. Just let Graham and me be together, okay?" She placed a hand protectively over her belly. "I'm carrying his baby. Do you really want the child to grow up without a father? You have money and power. Why can't you just leave us alone?"If you hadn't turned the internet against me, I wouldn't have lost my job or had people pointing fingers at me everywhere I went. You're a monster!"The more she spoke, the more hysterical she became. Her face twisted with jealousy and hatred.I spread my hands. "No one's fighting you for him anymore. Graham and I are done. We don't have anything to do with each other."The pain vanished from Jennifer's face, replaced almost instantly by undisguised delight. She practically flew from the edge of the rooftop and rushed toward Graham, as if s

"But I forgot something. You can't teach an old dog new tricks, especially when he likes rolling around in the garbage. Graham Whitmore, being with you was the biggest mistake of my life."With every word I spoke, Graham's face grew paler.He shook his head frantically. His lips moved, but no words came out. His fists were clenched so tightly that his entire body trembled.He looked lost, as though someone had ripped his soul out and left him standing there. Unable to hold back, Chloe stormed over and kicked him hard in the leg."I knew you were no good from the beginning!" she snapped. "And after all these years, you're still the same—a complete waste of space! I honestly have no idea what Luna ever saw in you. If it hadn't been for her, you'd be nobody."Graham jerked his head up. The hatred in his eyes was almost frightening.And suddenly, everything made sense.After Graham rebuilt the Whitmore Group, the doubts surrounding him had never stopped.People in the business worl

Graham was rattled. Even his voice trembled slightly."No... that's not what I meant.""Let's break up, Graham. We had a good run. Let's leave it at that."Then I hung up.When one had reached a dead end, there was no shame in turning back.The 18-year-old Luna had chosen Graham because she had been young and in love. I didn't regret that choice.But the 26-year-old Luna wasn't going to keep giving him one chance after chance. Our relationship had reached its end.After pulling investment from the Whitmore Group, I threw myself into work. I dealt with one corporate issue after another, doing everything to contain the damage caused by the fallout.Margaret blew up my phone with endless calls.At first, she pleaded with me. When that didn't work, she tried to pressure me. When I refused to budge, she finally lost her temper."If I'd known you were this heartless, I never would have agreed to let you and Graham stay together!" she spluttered. "No wonder he couldn't stand you! Yo

By the time Graham realized what had happened, photos of him and Jennifer were everywhere.The Whitmore Group's reputation crumbled almost overnight. And the woman he had cherished so dearly had been thrown directly into the center of a storm and become the target of public outrage.I just hadn't expected her to have the nerve to come looking for me. She stood in front of me with a sweet smile and held out her pregnancy test."You know about Graham and me, don't you?" She rested a hand over her belly. "We've been together for six years, and now we're finally having a baby. It's time for you to step aside."Her tone was matter-of-fact, as though I were the other woman standing in the way of their beautiful love story.She brushed her hair back. Her young, pretty face was full of smug pride."I know you don't want to accept it. But what difference does that make? When there are three people in a relationship, the one who isn't loved is the loser."You probably don't even know this
The Moon Beyond His Reach Chapter 4
Graham had taken up eight years of my youth.We had been together since I was 18, from the first flutter of young love to the comfortable certainty of adulthood at 26.To everyone around us, we were a perfect couple—the kind people admired and tried to imitate. Our families were equally prominent, and we looked as though we had been made for each other.So, why had Graham betrayed me? I went over it a thousand times in my head and still couldn't find an answer.The next morning, I finally went outside.Graham was still standing in the rain, swaying slightly from exhaustion."So? Was cheating on me worth the thrill?" I asked.He crossed the distance between us in a few quick strides. "Honey, I screwed up. I swear to you, it will never happen again."He sounded so sincere, as though he had genuinely regretted everything and was ready to turn over a new leaf.I stared at him blankly. My eyes traveled slowly over the face I had known for eight years, as if I were seeing 26-year-ol
