Chapter 61 – Ezrah's Regret

A smile bloomed on Sebastian’s face at the thought of Piper. “You mean my sunshine? She’s the love of my life. So, what do you want to know about Michelle?” He asked, while Lake and Ezrah exchanged uncomfortable gazes. Ezrah was already becoming suspicious and vengeful, but his main focus was Michelle. “You said you never had Michelle. What do you mean by that?” He asked Sebastian. “I’ll show you.” Sebastian went upstairs and returned with some documents. “This is the signed marriage certificate, and that is not my signature.” Ezrah studied the certificate and caught a glimpse of the divorce certificate as well. The signatures were different and confusion infused in his mind. He was beginning to feel hazy. “Then who did she marry?” “Me. But it was arranged by my father. It was only recently that my father opened up about everything.” “He found my accident suspicious and was not comfortable with the people around me. I never liked his mansion as it reminded me of my mom, so he sen

Chapter 62 - I have to see her now

Sebastian nodded his head once again, but this time his expression was grim. The three men had not realized they were still standing in front of the painting on Sebastian’s wall. It was clear that the painting was not a recent one as Piper looked slightly different. The artist though, was rather skillful. “Yes. We were seriously dating, but whenever I asked her to marry me, she would give me excuses. I never really told her about my family by then, just that I was an office worker. I was hoping to reveal it after she agrees to marry me.” “When she found out she was pregnant, she moved in with me, but I never got to meet her family. She kept saying she was an orphan.” “Fuck!” Ezrah hissed. It was too painful to be played like that. All along, he felt guilty for having treated Piper wrongly. He made promises to her that he couldn't keep because he got drunk, drugged, or whatever, and woke up in bed with Michelle. He was determined to make it up to Piper because she was the one he w

Chapter 63 – Come Home with Me

Ezrah had made a lot of mistakes by acting rashly, including letting Michelle go. He felt that he should have handled things differently back then. Piper messed up his life, so how could he make it so easy for her? She might just escape from the hospital. “No, it’s obvious that she would run away if you show your face. I will be on the lookout for any event and invite you over. You’ll get to see her then, but I have to warn you that she has to pay for denying me my child.” Sebastian sank into the sofa, his hopes crashed. This was not the way he wanted to meet his sunshine. “Are you sure it’s her? What if it's someone who looks like her?” It was still hard to believe because they were both in love. Piper could not just betray him like that, right? Seeing no headway with Sebastian, Ezrah dialed Piper’s number and activated the speaker button. It was answe

Chapter 64 – Stop the car

Coco was exasperated, not expecting to see River here. But come to think of it, what was he calling a home? They never had anything like that. "What do you want here? Did you bring my money?” She asked directly. Throughout their relationship, she never asked River for even a pin, and yet he lacked respect for her. Was she so blinded by her love for him? River’s expression changed slightly at the mention of the money. Clad in a gray suit, he looked refined, but Coco suddenly lost interest in him. “I was just kidding. There isn’t any other woman. Just you.” A smile bloomed on his face when he spoke, but Coco’s expression was stern. “Liar,” Michelle sarcastically said as Rush opened the door on the other side for her to enter the car. Though not interested in Coco’s relationship, Michelle knew that River was only saying it because of the money.

Chapter 65 – I'm not foolish

Slap! River felt the heat of the slap on his face as his cheek burned. “You imbecile. I turned a blind eye because of Coco, but you were cheating on her all this time.” Michelle was furious and slapped him again. Before he could touch his burning cheek, she kicked him in the stomach. “Michelle, let me handle this,” Rush intervened, gently pushing her aside. Despite wearing four-inch stilettos, she ran so fast from the car that it took River a moment to catch up to her. Suzy stood speechless, shocked to see Michelle, a celebrity, so enraged that she took out her phone to record everything. However, Coco’s bodyguard, who had caught up to Rush and Michelle, snatched the phone from her hand. They all worked together, but whenever Michelle and Coco were together, Rush automatically protected them both. “Michelle, your madness has gone too far. I feel suffocated,” River sneered, recovering from the shock and lunging towards Michelle. Rush kicked him in the groin, causing him to double

Chapter 66 – I Promise to Be Your Worst Nightmare

Michelle had so much on her mind that she knew she would not be able to sleep. On her way to the mansion where they lived, she instructed the driver to do a U-turn after calling the lawyer to find out Piper’s whereabouts.She had personally hacked into the hospital CCTV to shut down the cameras in Piper’s ward and across the corridors, while Rush went ahead to ensure there was no one in the ward before she arrived.When she saw the sleeping figure on the bed, rage boiled in her heart. How could she be so peaceful after causing her so much pain? Michelle did not hold back and slapped her hard on the face, causing Piper to jolt awake. How could she lie so blatantly and press charges against Michelle for assault? “You pressed charges of assault. I’m here to finish what I started."Piper was only surviving on painkillers from what Michelle had done to her earlier. Now, all the pain rejuvenated, she could not take it but opening her eyes to see Michelle, she was embittered but also happy.

Chapter 67 – Don't tell me you want Michelle back

Ezrah had overslept since his arrival in the wee hours of the morning. This was the first time he had slept in this late, but it felt as if he had not slept at all. The first part of his sleep was spent thinking about all the nasty things he had said to Michelle. How could he take them back? It seemed impossible. Unless he could erase Michelle’s memory from a month before the divorce, but that would also be wickedness. Ezrah had never felt so useless in his life as he did today. He was petting the same woman who had destroyed his marriage, caused Zora’s accident, resulting in the loss of their child. Now, the first call to wake him from bed was not from his secretary but from a doctor, because of the same cursed woman, Piper. “What did you say?” Ezrah’s husky voice finally came through the line. “I propose that we send your fiancée to a mental health center. She has been hallucinating, claiming that a woman named Michelle came to abuse her and poured cold drinks on her.” “There

Chapter 68 – Stunning as Ever

Ezrah fell silent and guilty. He knew he wasn't worthy of a woman like Michelle, not in terms of finances but emotionally.She was a gem he felt undeserving of. Where could he even begin?He had never been there for her when she needed him, and now she was capable of handling her own affairs.There seemed to be no need for a man in her life except for protection, which Rush was already providing quite well.Sighing, he responded sadly after some thought, "It's impossible. I've hurt her too much, but please arrange it and let me know. I'll be waiting."This wasn't the first time Lake had heard Ezrah sound so pitiful because of Michelle, but this time, Lake felt he deserved it. "You have to pay," Lake resigned and said before ending the call and dialing Madison's number."Hey, how have you been? Missing me?" Lake teased as soon as the call connected. Madison scoffed on the other end of the line."No, I just got to the office.""That hurts," Lake frowned before asking, "Have you gotten o

Chapter 69 – Michelle is mine

Edmund pulled away gently and stared at her. “I didn’t. I was rather out of the coverage area, but you were the one who blocked me.” Michelle shook her head, puzzled by the accusation as she lifted her phone. “You did.” She wanted to show him proof, but when she dialed his number again, it went through, and his phone rang. Edmund brought out his phone and showed the screen to her. “I didn’t.” Michelle could not believe it. His number had indeed been blocked, and she had no idea what happened just now. “You did,” she insisted with the same puzzled look from before. Edmund was so happy to see her; he did not want to argue. “Fine. Your number was blocked on my phone, but I didn’t do it. Let’s forget about who blocked who. What matters is that I found you again.” He stared at her lovingly and asked, “So, are you going to spare me some time now?” Michelle was about to respond when her phone rang. “Please excuse me,” she answered the phone after checking the caller ID. “Madison, how a

Chapter 70 – The Deal Is On

There was silence at the end of the line, making Ezrah uncomfortable. “Sebatian, are you there?” On the other side of the line, Sebatian was weighing his options, trying to avoid any rushed decision. If this Piper was indeed his sunshine, then he might try to make it up to Michelle. Therefore, he could not just put a rope around his neck. “Of course. Your words are just taking too long to sink in.” Ezrah was aggravated by the response. Already, Rush was a problem for him as he did not like his closeness to Michelle. Now, it was Sebatian. Perhaps, three could really play this game. “You don’t want to stay away from Michelle? Then you aren’t going to see her.” Sebatian smiled intently at the other side of the line. No wonder Ezrah chose to send him to Lake’s house instead of his. It was clear that Ezrah saw him as a rival and co
