NOLAN'S POV

There were two documents in the folder named "That night." I opened the first one, and let out a dry laugh. It was the video of Rubby and Alexander that night in China.

"You snake!" I spat. Look how excellently he had handled it, and made someone else take the fall. It wasn't Mirabelle after all, neither was it Trisha.

For a split second, I felt bad for having betrayed Trisha; Josh was even the deadlier snake here; I shouldn't have started with him at all.

I tapped on the other video, and it started playing.

At first, it was shaky, as though the person recording had been hiding or was trying to gain balance where he or she stood.

For the first fifteen to twenty seconds, it felt as though he or she was recording the sky, but when the camera became steady, I could see two figures on the rooftop.

Josh and Mirabelle.

I couldn't hear what they said, because of how the wind howled through the speakers, but I didn't need to hear them to understand what was going on.

    RUBBY'S POV "What did you just say?" I asked and pulled my hand back as if I had been burnt.Alex turned away. "I asked a simple question.""No, you did not," my voice cracked."That was an accusation. It wasn't a question.""You saw it too, Rubby. He has his eyes on you even with Annie by his side; how is that supposed to make me feel?"I scoffed. "He has his eyes on me, and you asked if I like him too? Alex, for real? Have I ever liked him? Why are you so insecure despite everything we've passed through together? Oh, now I see; you've really never trusted me. First it was Nolan, now Josh, who I've had nothing to do with." I began to speak gently now, trying as hard as I could not to break down in tears."Can you count what we've been through since we got together? Can you? Yet you ask questions like this?"I pushed open the door and stepped out; he hurriedly did the same."Baby, that's not how I meant it. Hold up, please."I wasn't walking to the penthouse; I headed straight to t

    ALEXANDER'S POV FEW DAYS LATER Josh insisted on travelling with Annie after the whole drama died down. According to him, he said he needed it to cool off. I couldn't stop him, he needed it. His mother was in prison, and his only brother was dead.My mother was arrested from the hospital after she had gotten better. Well, one thing I was sure of was that she would be in attendance on my wedding day.It was a new day, the 14th of February. The day my future will be sealed, both in business and in Love.Late the previous day, The chairman had signed the ownership to me, including his shares.That morning, the room was a flurry of activities. My stylist adjusted my tie for the third time, and the event coordinator kept reciting the program line by line.I looked at the full-length mirror. Of course, Rubby had no choice but to fall in love with a handsome dude like me. I wore a navy blue tuxedo with a white shirt. My pocket square was folded to perfection, I looked every inch the CEO of

    RUBBY'S POV "Your parents are here," the nurse informed us. We all sat in the chairman's room waiting for him to wake up."Dad!" I shouted and ran to hug him."Of course, I expected that. Spoilt daddy's girl," Mom said with jealousy."Oh, come on, Mum, I would hug you too."Her eyes were clouded already."I miss you," I whimpered and melted into her open arms."Hope you are not hurt?" She asked and touched my stomach."And my son, I hope he is not hurt.""No, she's not hurt," my father and Alex said in union."What!" I exclaimed and burst out laughing. It lightened the mood in the room, and for a second we were out of chaos."He's a boy," Mom argued."I want a girl too." We all froze. Slowly we turned to see the chairman smiling. "Here," his lawyer whispered and helped him sit up."So the men win," Alex shouted, and they all burst out laughing. --Hours later--The drive to the national hospital was interesting.While Alex drove, Dad sat with the chairman, and I sat in the centre,

    RUBBY'S POV "I'll be expecting you guys," he said and rushed out. We didn't have time to ask what was wrong; we just hoped it was for good."What was that?" Alex asked immediately he was out of sight."Do you see the way he looks at you? Why did.....urghh! Rubby.""You're so jealous," I said laughing."It's not funny," Alex answered and made funny faces."He still has a soft spot for you, don't you see?""I don't see," I answered feigning ignorance."You better don't. You're mine alone."I had barely rested for a few hours before I found myself asking Alex for something that made him grumble."Can we go see them now?""Rubby, you just woke up. You need to rest.""Baby but I'm fine," I answered as calmly as possible. "I just want to see the boy, I owe them that, don't you think?"He looked at me for some time with eyes full of concern. I knew he wanted to protect me like a fragile glass door, but he wouldn't refuse me anything."Fine," he rolled his eyes. "If the nurse says you are re

    Chapter 190RUBBY"Rubby, Rubby," I heard Alex's voice faintly. We stood close to each other but I felt he was meters apart."Al.....Alex," I managed to whisper and everything turned black.I woke up moments later on a white bed. My eyelids were heavy, but I forced them open, blinking against the soft light above me.For a few seconds, I couldn't tell where I was; until I heard Alex's voice."Baby you're awake."I turned my head slowly and saw him seated on a chair close to my hospital bed."What happened?" I whispered."Thank God," he muttered and wrapped his hand around mine."You collapsed, the drug didn't wear off completely the first time.""Oh, That," I exclaimed and racked through my brain. I knew I was forgetting something, yet I couldn't place my hands on it."Is it the chairman?" Alex asked. "Yeah," I nodded. "Is he okay?""He's fine," Alex replied and shook his head."What is it?" I became concerned."Why are you so kind? You didn't even bother to check if your baby is fin

    ALEXANDER'S POV I clenched my Jaw thinking about the mistake I had just made. I would have stayed with her. But still, what would I have done knowing fully well that the chairman needed my help desperately.I took one look at him and shook my head. Emily had overstepped, and I wouldn't let it slide. But then, how was she able to get both the chairman and his lawyer."Fuck," I said and ran my hand through my hair. "It's my fault now, If I had listened to her, she wouldn't be in this situation.""You better shut the fuck up and save your strength," One of the men said."Say one more word to me and we will both roll down that cliff!" I fired back.Soon, I heard the sound of a car pulling up a few meters away from where I stood, and when the occupants of the car stepped out, my whole body froze."No, no, no, Rubby," I called."Stay back!" That same man shouted with his gun cocked now.I watched in horror as she was led to the scene unconscious.Her body was still limp from the effect of
