#Chapter21Diana’s P.O.VFor the past twelve weeks, I would sit on my bed and stare at the ceiling. Every time I tried to rationalize what my mother and I planned on doing to River I felt like it was me who was going to kill but the truth is all we were doing is helping the killer.I stood there and gazed at my facial features as I reordered what happened that day.“My name is Mateo García,” he said extending his muscular arm towards me while examining me with his dark brown eyes.“Diana.......“It took me a while to process that soon enough my last name will no longer be Scott before I replied, “Diana Richmond. “I smiled ushered for him to take a seat as I looked at his file, “What do you have against River? “I asked pressing my lips together.“She is the reason for my father’s death,” He replied, with fire piercing through his eyes.” And I want to make her and her mother pay.“That’s fine by me, “I announced giving him a dour look. “But we have to plan this strategically so muc

#Chapter23Rivers P.O.VRight, when Emma came through the door, I had a feeling there was something behind that smirk plastered on her face but it would be rude to kick her out.“You may come in. “I smiled forcefully just to be nice.I lead her past the main entrance and behind the first door on the right was the living room filled with luxurious furniture.“I’m here to tell you something about Ms.-”“You can call her Diana in my presence I mean it’s not like she’s here. “I snapped as she cleared her throat and then finally spoke.“Diana.....um ......doe.... s not know I am here.”" You secret is buried down under “I assured.” You may proceed. “I crossed my legs and gave her my undivided attention even though I did not trust her.“Diana is pregnant by Ethan. “She whispered with her chestnut brown eyes roaming, she played with a strand of her brown hair before standing up to leave without another word.All of a sudden, I felt my breath shorten. I was astonished. This could not

#Chapter25River’s P.O.V5 Years Later“Mommy, mommy are you up, “Nathan yelled, stomping to my room as I peeled my eyes open slowly to see him climbing on my bed, “Come on mommy I want to go to Jacobs. “He yelled, jumping on my bed until I grabbed him and began to tickle him in his abdominal area as he giggled uncontrollably. Its where he was most ticklish and I loved to mess with him.“Mama stop, “he said, as his ocean blue eyes glistened with laughter.He reminded me so much of his father it scared me.“Alright Nate let James fix you breakfast and I will go change. “I cooed, placing multiple kisses on his cheek. Two years ago, I got promoted to the CEO of ‘Garcia’ clothing line and since then I saved for this six-bedroom flat. One room for each family member plus an extra.My Mom and Aiden went to New York because Aiden got into a very prestigious Academy for High School.Though expensive the Academy ensures the cost of tuition will be around fifteen thousand so he decided t

I was not going to tolerate him for any longer. I was aggravated and I felt I was going to slap him.I was glad I contained enough willpower to stay away from him and hopefully it was going to stay that way I did not want him getting anywhere near Nate without any intention of good.I took a glance at the clock.11:00 Damn I was already starving.I walked back to the table but Andrew was on the phone once he saw me, he stuck his index finger up to ensure I would not leave.He then closed the phone and took a glance at me, “ I’m so sorry I have to leave my daughter is sick.“ He apologized, standing up and my eyes grew wide in shock.“You have a daughter? “I questioned noticing the worry in his eyes.“Y

#Chapter29Diana’s P.O.VSeeing River at the restaurant made my nerves pop I felt I was going to go jump her and surely, I was. Emma followed her the minute she left out and I found out this was her location.I know she did not live here but I was going to drag her to hell in front of everyone she knew. She needed to stay away from Ethan or this time I will kill her and not depend on someone else to do it.If it was not for Mateo and his loyalty to pregnant woman, I would have been finished with her. I would have been done with her.Every time I generate that fact it makes me want to kill them both.“We need to talk. “I roared and River jumped turning my way.“What the hell do you want? Have you not had enough? “She yelled, standing up.“No, I will not have enough until you get the hell out of Ethan’s life, “ I exclaimed, pushing her shoulder and she gave me the glare of death.I always knew she had the devil hidden in her.“Get.
