She's back のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 31 - チャプター 40

Morgan's pov:"What did you just do?" Sabrina asked, her tone carrying a distinct chill that I recognized. She sounded like my father, when he was very pissed. I shoved down my inhibitions and maintained a glower. "I asked you a question first." Sabrina turned to Nora who was looking at us with a bewildered expression. "Could you excuse us, please?" Sabrina said in a tone that dripped sweet saccharine. Nora looked at me. I gave her an encouraging nod, signaling that it was okay for her to leave. She turned and walked out, the door closing behind her. I faced Sabrina again."Well?" She asked, her head cocked to the side. "What was that just now, Morgan?""Sabrina, now isn't the time to play word games. I asked you, what are you hiding from me?!""Hiding?" She scoffed a bitter laugh. "You know, Morgan, I've been really cool about all of this. You know that , right?"I narrowed my eyes at her. "That wasn't an answer, Sabrina. And you know it.""Hiding anything from you? Why would I ha

Morgan's POV:"Daddy I'm working on it." I said, meeting my father halfway up. He was red in the face with anger, his lips curled into a snarl."Working on it!" He exploded. "I just saw everyone leaving!""I asked them to go home it's not safe for them here.""You dismissed your workers?! So you have any idea what you've done, how much we could lose!""We will continue to lose more if these rumours aren't addressed!"He pulled back, his eyes narrowed at me. I turned to the tech team, and they all had looks of discomfort all over their faces. I turned back to my father. "I'm sorry, you may leave now."That was all it took for them to scramble out of the conference room. Now it was just I and my father. "Morgan, I told you several times to keep yourself clean. I told you." He said, his voice low with caution."I know, I did all of that. This....this is not me. It's a smear campaign." I said. His eyes narrowed. And for a moment I wondered if he was reconsidering my skills and expertis

Morgan's POV:"Well, that went to hell." Sabrina groaned. She plopped down on the chair, nearly toppling over with the force she used. She raised her hands in defeat and slammed them down on her thighs.I perched on the edge of my desk, a headache brewing in my head like a large storm. The press conference had in one word — flopped. It looked like it was another attempt by whoever planned this to destroy me. My reputation, my name, everything was in the mud."It should blow over soon." Sabrina said. "People have short attention span these days. By end of the week, this should have been over.""Yeah right." I chuckled to myself. "You're not aware of how things run in this cut throat world of ours."Her eyes met mine and she bit her lip. "Do you have any enemies?"The question made me pause. "Yes. A lot in fact.""Any of them you think can do this?""Yes, some of them. But I would know if any of them were behind this." I took my phone out of my pocket. It vibrated with a message. I op

Morgan's POV;"Get your hands off her." Dante seethed, storming his way into the hospital room. "Can you just mind your own business?" I snapped at him, annoyed with his intrusion. The color in my face became that of anger as I glared at him.He looked at me briefly before he turned to Winston. "Get out." "Get out?" Winston laughed. "Mr Fontaine, you should really watch yourself. Miss Rosewood is my patient, and I do not take orders from you.""Your patient?! I didn't bring her here! Tell me how that happened huh?!""Dante, you're being a pain right now. You should get out. I don't want to see you here."He turned to me, a spark of annoyance in his eyes. "You're awake now. We're leaving." He said and grabbed my arm, yanking me towards him. I cried out, lost my balance and came crashing into his chest. I gasped, my nose exploding in pain as I slammed into his chest. "Morgan,""Have you lost your damned mind?!" I screamed, shoving him away. "That's enough now," Winston came up in fro

MORGAN'S POV;"Deal?" The voice laughed. "So soon? Are you that desperate?""Desperate?" I scoffed in annoyance. "Who's been the one blowing my phone up with stupid texts? Which one of us is desperate now?""Cocky." a click of the tongue. almost human. I rolled my eyes. "Look, this is going to be on my terms.""But of course.""Don't text me unless I text you first, and unless it's absolutely necessary. And of course, I'm going to be the first to call, not that you can call me, anyway.""Of course." Another chuckle. That mechanical voice grated on my nerves like mad. I inhaled deeply and closed my eyes. A huge wave of dizziness hit me. Dang that sleeping pill is working too damn fast."I'll send your money by tomorrow morning.""You haven't told me what you want me to do.""Since you're—" I yawned "—all aware of what's happening, find the bastard behind all these rumors. Gather everything you can on them.""Finally. Some real action.""Don't tell me you've been out of job in what? Fo
