SELENA"Take us home Max," Aiden ordered as Max nodded starting the engines. We spent the next hour in utter silence and by the time we got home it was already night time. Aiden excused himself but I was sure he went to find out about Natalia since she was still in his library. I wanted to ask him what had happened in there and the gunshot but I could see he was upset, did he watch the footage of Vincent and me together in the living room discussing? Was that what had upset him I thought as I opened the room of my mother slightly to see if she was asleep or she was still awake. Brianna's pregnancy was still on my mind and I didn't know if my mother was aware of it, but I was sure she wasn't because if she was she would have made mention of it. No matter how angry my mother would have been over Brianna getting pregnant she would have never abandoned her daughter. I looked in, "Mum," I muttered but got no response as I could see her sleeping already, I smiled at the sight of her sle

SELENA I couldn't believe what Aiden had just told me. My mind was racing, trying to process the information. "What do you mean your father isn't your biological father?" I asked, my voice shaking a little.Aiden took a deep breath before explaining. "My mom had an affair with someone else. She got pregnant and didn't tell my dad. He raised me as his own, but he's not my biological father. They are both unaware that I now know this."I felt a knot form in my stomach as I tried to imagine what that must have been like for him. "That's a big secret to keep," I said softly, but that didn't justify him having his father locked up in jail, there had to be something that prompted him to do sure, if Mr. Frazier wasn't his biological father but he had raised him to be his son then the man wasn't to be blamed.The person who should be suffering should be his mother for lying to him and Mr. Frazier.Aiden nodded, looking down at his hands. "Yeah, it's been hard. I had always suspected somethin

AIDEN"Is this a joke?" She asked looking at the file and then back at me. It was the same way I had questioned the will when the lawyer read it to my eyes, the first will didn't require marriage I was entitled to a certain amount and Astrid as well was entitled but it didn't take long when my father change the will to us getting married. A month later he changed it to one year of marriage and then a month after it was changed to two years, at some point my mother got upset and asked if he didn't want us to acquire his wealth as the rules and regulations were getting out of hand but I knew my father had a plan. He had been consumed by greed and at some point he wasn't ready to retire and hand over his wealth to any of his children. Locking him up in jail made him not get the chance to change the will but if I was to remain heir and owner of all his business asset I had to stay married for the next two years to Selena. "I am willing to make those two years worth it Selena, you don

AIDEN"Her fingerprints were found on the murder weapon, so if we are to take up the case she is going to turn up as a prime suspect," Axel explained as I thought deeply about his word.Selena wasn't at the crime scene, so it was obvious her fingerprints had been gotten somehow and placed on the murder weapon to implicate her in the case because the bastard old fool knew we would come for him once we started investigating and connected the missing lines.I had to commend him for playing his game well, with this newfound information there was no way we could take up the case because the last thing I wanted was for Selena to get arrested and spend a few hours in an interrogation room. I didn't want her to have to go through that trauma. The best I could do right now was to think out of the box, to think of a way I could deal with that old fool and get the justice that Brianna and her unborn child deserved."He seemed to have outsmarted us," I admitted to Axel as he nodded his head in a

SELENA"What is she doing here?" Mrs Frazier asked as she rose to her feet glaring at me angrily while Aiden held on to my hand. His show of affection didn't go unnoticed by Natalia who I didn't expect to be here. Our eyes met briefly but I looked away not minding her, I could only wonder what she was doing here. Earlier in the day, Aiden had informed me that he planned on visiting his mum and I thought it best to follow him since his mother was ill but now as I stood before her I wasn't sure I had made the right decision by coming here. She didn't like me one bit and she wasn't planning on hiding how much she hated me. "I can see you have recovered well," Aiden replied. "I am sorry Ma, I....We came to see after we heard that you were sick," I managed to speak to her, I still remembered how she had slapped my mother and insulted me but I tried to overlook that moment for Aiden's sake. "Does it look like I care?" Mrs Frazier asked. "Is this what it has come to Aiden? You don't eve
