Sandy’s POV None of what happened was real. It had to be a dream. There was no way that Gina could do such a thing to us, to me. She was my friend, I grew up with her. We have been there for each other through thick and thin. How could she do such a thing to me after everything?“Baby?”I flinched at the sound of Anthony’s deep voice. I slowly blinked and looked around me. I was in the living room, with a blanket over my body. I didn't even realize what was around me until now. He sat down beside me on the couch and wrapped his arm around my shoulders then he pulled me close to him.“Are you okay?” He whispered against my hair.“No.”I relaxed in his arms and forced myself to stop thinking. When I started to calm down, I felt myself becoming guilty. Everything that was happening was because I became friends with her. “I'm sorry,” I said and pulled myself away from him.“What are you apologizing for?” He asked with a small smile.“If Gina wasn't my friend, none of this would have ha

Anthony’s POV I was anxious as I waited.Today was the day I took back the company from the hands of these greedy men and women that occupied the higher positions of the company. Today was the day I proved myself to them and to make it known that I was capable of taking what was mine, especially to Trent Flintwood. I was going to show them that I also had the power to stand my ground and I owe it all to Angela.Someone knocked on the door of my office, forcing me out of my deep thoughts. I blinked and adjusted on my seat before clearing my throat.“Enter.”The door opened and I had to stop myself from rolling my eyes immaturely at the sight of Trent Flintwood. It was almost as if he had known I was thinking about him. “What do you want, Trent?” I asked and opened my laptop, pretending to be busy so he could leave me alone.Trent chuckled and from my periphery, I could see him walking toward me with hands in his pockets. I forced myself to keep my eyes on the loading screen of my la

Anthony’s POV “What did you just say to me?”The office was quiet for a few seconds and my patience grew thin as I waited for him to explain the shit he said had said to me. I kept my gaze on him, waiting for him to speak up. I was one second away from punching the explanation out of him before he sighed and sat down on one of the seats facing my desk.My brows furrowed as I stared at his behavior. What was he doing? Why wasn't he being his cock self? Why wasn't he getting pissed or trying to fight me? “I'm surprised he hasn't told you the truth even with what is going on,” Trent said and chuckled.I relaxed my body when he repeated what he had said. I sat down on the chair opposite him and continued to remain silent. “Yes, what I said was the truth.”“I find that hard to believe,” I was finally able to speak. “That you're my brother? My own blood brother? Nah, it can't be.”Trent laughed and leaned in his seat. He crossed his legs and looked away from me to the door. I watched as

Sandy’s POV I woke up with a gasp. I sat upright on the couch and wrapped my arms around my body. I focused on breathing, on calming down before raising my gaze upward. I had another bad dream. Laying on a hospital bed was Anthony. The usual pang of pain hit me in the chest each time I looked at him. Three months ago, he had been in a terrible accident. An accident that put him in a coma that always gave me nightmares. Nightmares of him never waking up. I still remember that night like it was yesterday. I had received a call, saying that he had been in an accident. Fear unlike never before had filled me that I almost passed out. Seeing him covered in blood with broken body parts hurt me and traumatized me. The doctors had told me he wouldn't make it, that he would not survive the accident. I had begged them to save him and even after the surgery, they had told me the chances were fifty-fifty. Since t

Sandy’s POV “Anthony?” Angela repeated. “Is he okay? Sandy… Sandy?”I ended the call and strolled into the room with wide eyes. He turned his head and stared at me with narrowed eyes. He stared at me with confusion on his expression before looking down at himself and around him.I swallowed, finding it hard to believe that he was awake. As I slowly approached him, I started to think. Was he going to remember me? The doctors had claimed he did take a serious hit to the head and it might affect him in some way even though nothing showed up on the MRI scans.I stopped beside him and hesitantly sat on the bed. He raised his head and stared at me with narrowed eyes. There were eyebags under his eyes, his cheeks were flushed, and his eyes looked irritated. He looked exhausted. “Anthony?” I said softly. He parted his lips and his eyes opened a little bit. He parted his
