Chapter 45

NORA CARTER

I sat on the couch and watched Bryce as he helped the kids with their homeworks, and for a careless second, a smile spread across my face.

I composed myself and looked away.

Why am I not getting tense as always? Why did it feel comfortable leaving them like that, knowing he could suspect or even find out anything?

Part of me wanted to call my kids away from him, but when I opened my mouth, no words came out.

Seeing how excited my kids were with him, made it feel like a

    Chapter 54NORA CARTER My heart pounded hard, fingers tight on my iPad as I stood before the board room.It would be my first physical board meeting ever since I resumed here.I took a deep breath, then pushed the door open.Bryce's gaze caught mine across the room before I noticed everyone else in the room. There were eight of them. Three women and five men aside from Bryce.Heat spread through my throat, and I swallowed hard.“It’s our first physical board meeting, Ms. Carter. Don't you think you're being unprofessional by coming late?” One of them, a man in his fifties, said angrily. "I'm sorry. I was stuck in traffic.”"Then you should've left the house earlier.” Another one said. "Who leaves the house late, knowing that—" “Can we begin the meeting, everyone?" Bryce cut him off, and I hated to notice the anger in his eyes as he looked at the man."Yes. She came late.” He turned to the second man. "Shouldn't we get to the business and stop wasting any more time?" A small smile

    Chapter 53NORA CARTER ‘Can we talk for just a moment, please?’‘I know you don't want to see me, but please just a moment’‘It’s fine if you don't want to see me. Have you taken your medication? Just reply to my message and let me know how you're feeling’I sat on the floor of my room, phone in hand, tears blurring my vision as I slowly scrolled through Bryce's texts, my fingers clenching around the phone.For a moment, I imagined how perfect our life would've been if he didn't ruin everything. If he just listened to me and treated me better… and if he never cheated with Sandra.‘That night, I didn't kiss Sandra. I've never harbored any feelings for her besides being my sister’Tsk! Does he expect me to believe that? He must think that I'm a fool.I closed my eyes and let my tears fall freely down my shoulders.It's not worth it, Nora. Don't cry because of him. He doesn't deserve it.I wiped my tears, but more kept coming, and soon, my whimpers were echoing in my room.I wanted to s

    Chapter 52NORA CARTER A smile spread across my face as I slowly scrolled through the comments under the video I uploaded on the internet.Seeing the backlash Bryce was suffering from, I had to upload a video to clear his name, and also with the evidence I uploaded about Jasper's extortion, I'm sure he won't be able to get out of it freely this time.I couldn't have sat back and watched his name dragged through the mud knowing he did nothing wrong, right?I did what anyone in my shoes would've done. Besides, he got into that mess while trying to help me.‘I knew Mr. Winston was innocent. He couldn't have done something like that’‘Mr. Winston has never had any scandal in the past. How could anyone believe that video?’Tsk! As usual, public opinions are so easy to flip. They didn't even care if I made up the evidence and lied about everything.Anyways, I'm glad it worked out well.Just as I was about to drop my phone, one of the comments drew my attention.‘But who is this woman? What

    Chapter 51BRYCE WINSTON “The IT team have been working to bring down the video, but it kept being reshared by different platforms." Lewis said as he handed me his iPad.The video is still on different media platforms each one with over a million views."The stock had dropped by three percent as a result of the scandal, and we've lost over five hundred million dollars in the last twenty-four hours.”I scrolled through the iPad for another second, then sighed and gave it back to Lewis.“Our shareholders are also threatening to pull out their shares if you don't come out to clear the air and fix this mess." He continued. “What should we do, Sir?" I groaned, rubbing my forehead.“Have you found the original poster?" "Yes, Sir. He's from the TTR broadcasting station. I reached out to him, but it turned out that the video was sent to him anonymously.”I scoffed."And you believe that?”"I think he was telling the truth.”I exhaled.My mind drifted to Nora, and I groaned, throwing my hea

    Chapter 50NORA CARTER “This has nothing to do with you. I didn't do it because of you.”He didn't do it because of me? What a fucking joke."Well, if you're going to lie, then get your face to cooperate with you.”He looked away."You did that because of me, and now what? It has nothing to do with me?” I scoffed. “You're unbelievable, Bryce." How could he do something this stupid? Putting his reputation at risk for what? To make me forgive him?I should've been happy that he was going through this shit. Maybe I was supposed to feel that he deserved this for treating me like that, but my heart could stupidly not contain that. I observed him quietly for a moment.He was trying hard to mask the pain in his eyes. This definitely affected him, and knowing that they must've already lost some money, and might still lose more.Oh God! Why was he so crazy to have done that without thinking?“Nora—”"Why did you do it?” I cut him off.He opened his mouth and closed it back."To get my atte

    Chapter 49BRYCE WINSTON My phone rang just as I stepped out of my indoor gym and into the hallway.Lewis.Why is he calling this early? I swiped the answer button and just as I pressed it to my ear, his voice came on.“Hmm?" “We're screwed, Sir." He sounded worried. “Have you checked the trending news today?”"No. Why? And why do you sound so—" “Someone uploaded videos from that night on the internet." “What night?" I started towards the living room, but his next words brought me to an abrupt halt.“The incident with Jasper." "What?”"I took care of it. I made sure that the people that took videos deleted them that day. I don't know what's…" He hadn't even finished speaking when my phone started beeping.I glanced at the screen.Grandpa.“Let me call you back, Lewis." Then I ended the call.I stared at my phone screen.Grandpa must've heard of what happened.I watched the call ring until it dropped, then notification started pouring in. I'd put my phone on DND since I didn't
