All Chapters of Him: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

MICHEALI was going to LA today with my family. I wasn't keen on it but mom asked me to come and be around Courtney and accept her as my sister-in-law. Mom was really pissed at what I did to her. I had to beg her not to leave me. She is the most important woman in my life and seeing her that upset, broke me. I begged her not to leave me. I could not live without her. I assured her I did all when I was drunk and will apologize to Courtney for my wrongdoings.~10 years agoI was 16 when we moved to Palm Springs. I ran away from my house a year ago for some girl who broke my heart. Dad took me in ignoring my mistake. Dad was still working for a biotech company and we had to constantly move because of his work. Jason and I had a goo

COURTNEYToday we were attending an inauguration ceremony. Apparently, Mr. Roberts' close friend opened a restaurant here and he invited the whole family. Since he was a close friend we could not refuse and had to go. What Jason did yesterday scared the shit out of me. I took a navy blue dress from my bag and changed it into it. I apply some makeup on my face. I use the concealer on my wrists, neck and my cheek to hide all the purple-blue bruises. I leave my hair and slip into my heels and wait for Jason to pick me up. He was at a real estate meeting and informed me that he would pick me up from our suite.After some time I heard my phone buzz. It was a message from Jason. He asked me to come outside the room and wait for him in the lobby. I take the lift to the lobby and sit on the sofa while readin

COURTNEYI decided that before my dear husband wakes up and gives me a piece of his mind, I decided to head out. He surprisingly slept on the couch. It was too small for him as he was a tall man. I could see his forehead creases. He was really uncomfortable but I didn't care. I took a shower and got out to dress.I was in LA. I decided to ditch my very elegant newly married Newyorker look to what I would actually wear on a regular basis. I pulled out a white crop top and a black Hermes leather jacket. I pair it with black Levi Strauss jeans and ankle-length boots. I let my hair down and brush it. I straightened my hair. Although my hair was pretty straight, I was in LA and LA has certain beauty standards and I have to maintain it. Well, it was more like I was born into keeping up their beauty standar

COURTNEYWe were going on a road trip around California today. It was my mom and Noah's idea. She had even invited Maya and Micheal to come over.The only thing that was running in my mind was how to keep both of the brothers away from each other. I know they can't stand each other and are complete psychopaths. If they disagree on something, they don't even hesitate to kill each other. I was already on my last nerve that Jason was here but now a much bigger problem was waiting for me.I dressed in a black tank top and blue jeans. I took a denim jacket with me. I slipped into my shoes and headed down. I quickly put out food for Marcus. All of them were already waiting in the living room. We walk out and head towards the cars. As much as I hate Ja

Courtney was tired of her married life. She had decided that she wanted nothing to do with Jason. He had beaten her up, broken her, and probably even scarred her. She knew he was a monster and will never survive if she continues to be with him. She forgave him for what he did to her and still tried to make this work but it seemed like he was hell-bent on destroying it.Moreover, she was shocked he could pull such a stunt in her own house, near her parents. She was never the person to wish bad for someone but, Jason made her do it. She wished he never came into her life. Had she denied the marriage, she would not have experienced any of this. She wanted her parents to be happy and thought they wouldn't be wrong in choosing her a man to spend the rest of her life with.She was sitting in her room trying to think of ways to tell
