Cassie’s Pov

Travous’s voice brought me out of my thoughts. “Pardon my reaction, Cassie. I was shocked because we thought he was never going to settle down. Thank you for making him realize marriage can be such a beautiful thing. And it’s good to meet you.” He stretched out a hand to me and I smiled, returning the shake.

“Happy Birthady! And good to meet you too.”

“Thank you. You look gorgeous by the way.” He said to me, then turned to Shawn. “Aren’t you a lucky thing?”

“Thank you,” I responded with a nervous chuckle, finding it hard to believe a mogul was complimenting me.

“I know I am. That’s why I’m not going to let anyone take her away from me.”

“I should probably introduce her to Mary,” Travous said, then his eyes went searching the crowd for the person bearing that name. Shawn leaned close to me and stole a kiss from me. My eyes went wide.

“We are in the public,” I said looking at his lips for any trace of evidence but there was none.

He smiled. “So?”

“Be good!” I warned

    Shawn’s POV“A mistake while she was drunk? You all got to be kidding me!” I mumbled, taking a seat on the chair behind my desk. Since my dad and sister occupied the chairs before me, Kelvin came to a halt beside them. He stood beside my Dad. “How’s that even ideal?” Kelvin scoffed, folding his arms. Dad was about to say something when I interrupted. “Look, Dad, I respect you but I apologize in advance because I’m not going to listen to whatever you say. It’s high time you renounced your friendship with Stella’s Dad and got rolling with some of your other friends.” “I know I’ve been through shits, gone through heartbreaks and so many nasty situations that I’ve regretted but this by far has been one of the most ridiculous things that has ever happened to me. For fucks sake, she’s married with two kids. What the hell does she want from me? To divorce Cassie and come ask her for her hand in marriage?” “If anyone should be causing me trouble, then it should be Brenda and Tasha who I d

    Lauretta’s POV “Mom!!!!!!” “Rhodaaaaaaa!” I screamed at the top of my voice, fighting the tears that were threatening to roll down my cheeks. “What’s going on? Why did you scream my name that way?” Rhoda said as she finally made her way to the living room. I was just right in front of the TV so she took slow steps towards me. Since I was too stunned to give her a response. She took a glance at the tv and from the headline, I guess she had an idea of why I called her out. “Shawn gave a press conference?” She said in disbelief. Yeah, I was surprised too because this was the first time he had ever addressed rumors that were not related to his business. “Are you sure that bitch is really my stepsister?” I turned my attention to my mother, still fighting my tears.“What do you mean, Lori? Of course, she is. She has always been the step-sister, the bastard child, you are the loved one, and that is why you’ve had a life better than hers. Why are we even talking about her right now?” I

    The Next Day Shawn’s Pov “Are you sure you wanna do this?” I was almost exiting my office when Kelvin’s voice stopped me. With a hand in my pocket, I turned around to face him. “Do I have any other choice?” “You’ve never given a damn about anyone so it’s okay if you let this slide. The lawyers are on the case already and with the apology Stella is going to give, people will find out about your innocence. Look at you, you look like shit and yet you wanna go face the media?” I heaved a deep sigh, tucking my other hand into my pocket. “You and Cassie had a hard time after we ended the call?” Kev asked, the concern not going unnoticed in his eyes and voice.I shrugged. “We didn’t talk much. She went to bed. But I could tell that she wasn’t happy. I mean, it’s been back-to-back attacks. I could feel that she had so much to say but her words were going to upset me so she kept quiet.”“I knew she didn't want attention from the media, that’s why I’m here all alone. I don’t bloody care i

    Lauretta’s POV “The last time I remember, She didn't have a phone. But I would be so happy if she saw this. Cassie has a weak heart so no doubt this is going to break her.” Mom voiced out. I heaved a small sigh and then placed my phone on my lap. “I wish I was by her side right now. You know how much I love to see her miserable.” “Same here, honey. I do miss seeing her shed tears and do all the hefty work around the house. But now I feel a bit relieved. It wouldn’t take too long for Shawn to return her and come for you.” My lips curved into a proud smile. “Are you sure?” “Of course. Life will always be in support of us because we are good people. We literally had to do nothing ourselves but look, the secrets out!” “But….” I stared at Mom suspiciously. “Are you sure you’ve not got a hand in this? I mean how did she know that Cassie is the daughter of a debtor?” “You’ve gotta think out of the box, baby. Anyone can dig up any information about whoever. Besides, I’m surprised she v

    Cassie’s Pov.Kayla heaved a deep sigh. “I know you’ve got a soft heart and I don't want any of those comments to get to you.”“Stella is a public figure so she sort of has some nasty fanbase who despise you in an imaginary way already. You don’t need to fill your thoughts with all of that. They don’t know you in person so they can’t tell how good you are.”“And please, if you are feeling bad about it, just know that they are saying nasty things about Shawn and even members of our family so we are all in this together,” Kelvin spoke, while Shawn didn’t take his eyes off me. He was staring at me with so much concern and at the same time, I could see the anger on his face. It was almost as though he was holding back; trying so much to control his temper. “Yeah. Our family has been in the public eye for a long time and stuff like this happens once in a while so we are used to these kinds of talks. Sorry, this is happening. But be rest assured that we will do all we can to protect you.”

    Cassie’s Pov At the instructions of his brother, Shawn did not end the call. He navigated to his imessage, then clicked on the link Kelvin sent which took him to a website. My husband took his time to go through the page and with every sentence that he read, the more his countenance changed. “What the hell?” He cursed when he couldn’t take it anymore. The phone was a bit far from me so I couldn’t see but from the look on Shawn’s face, I could tell it wasn’t a good article.“She can say all sorts about me but what gives her the fucking right to attack my wife?” Shawn said at the top of his voice. My heart skipped. Wait? Did she bring my story to the media?“The internet is a mess bro, that lady is so evil.” “What did she put out there?” My voice came out shaky. Shawn looked away from his phone but stared at me speechless. I gestured towards the phone to have a look but Shawn seemed like he wasn’t going to hand over the device to me.“Is it that bad? Let me see.” This time around
