REBECCA'S POVMy breath hitched as I swallowed hard, feeling my muscles weaken under his stern, freaking eyes."What... What did you just say?" I chipped, half-stutter laced in a mutter.His body jerked, curving through my own chest slowly as he moved in like he was going for the kill. His hand found my chin, almost like he was pulling my soul. I felt my toes curl together, and at that moment, trying to maintain eye contact was self-torture because my heart was drumming like a fool."You. Heard. Me, Becca."The way his voice rolled out effortlessly, like it was specifically designed to say those words.His head dipped, almost closing whatever distance remained between us, and I panicked.My head whipped toward the other side, and I felt his body pause. For a moment, he didn’t say anything, and neither did I.This was probably for the best. Things shouldn't get complicated.I had too much pride to be the other woman. Even if his feelings were genuine, I wasn’t about to repeat my past m

REBECCA'S POVRing! Ring! Ring!The sound buzzed through the darkness I had drifted into a while ago. My palm rubbed my face before a low guttural yawn was released as I reached out toward my phone."Alyssa, what's up," I mumbled, pinching the space between my brows with my elbows pressing through the wood table.The faint beep from William’s monitor resonated with my heartbeat as I waited for her response."Miss Belmont, it's already late in the evening and I couldn't reach you all afternoon. The company is in a frenzy and the shareholders have gone ballistic. Is it true that Mr. Sterling is now the new CEO?"I closed my eyes when the reality of the decision I made started to dawn on me. I literally just signed out my company to the Sterlings and now everything was going to fall apart."Miss Belmont, Miss Belmont, can you hear me?" Alyssa called out.I took a deep breath, feeling the dryness hitching my throat. "Umm, don't worry about it. Just keep doing what I asked. The summer coll

REBECCA'S POV"You know what? You're right. I am with your mother and precious sister." I chuckled. "Afterall they deserve it."Felix’s gaze widened as he let his hands slip from my shirt and staggered back. He panted, rubbing his chest. Slowly, I straightened my stance."What is the matter? Did my words strike you too hard? Well, good.""Release them right now!"My fingers rolled across the smooth wooden table. "I will, but you will have to earn it first. Can you do that for me?"Felix’s face tightened. "Are you doing all of this because of William? He is fine. Why do you have to go through such wicked and cruel lengths?""William is fine, you say." I scoffed, pushing my lips to the side as I stepped out to meet the bastard. Anger had already formed in my fist as I jabbed his chin.He stumbled back."My son..." I panted, wiggling my fist as if trying to shake off the pain. "is... in the hospital. How do you think he ended up there?"Felix stared at me, dumbfounded, his palm pressed a

REBECCA'S POVIt’s really funny how the people who have no issue hurting others are the same ones that squirm and beg for their lives.Our eyes were firmly locked on each other, and it seemed that when she finally knew it was me, her entire body trembled.“Re… Rebecca, let me go.”I yanked her firmly as her nails clawed into my skin, but that little pain didn’t stop me. If anything, it made something dark inside me curl.That must have been how my son begged as she abused him.“Anna, you deserve this.”“Rebecca… murder is illegal… you can’t kill me,” she choked, her fingers starting to pound against my arms.I started to chuckle. Slowly, my hands loosened around her neck. She burst into a loud cough, her body vibrating with each second.“Are you out of your mind?” she panted, rubbing her hand over her neck.Her hands found her stomach. “Are you trying to harm my baby again?”“Cut the crap,” I snapped sharply as I stood from the bed. “You and I both know you don’t even care about that

REBECCA’S POV"Go ahead, I’m listening. Hopefully, it’s not something that ruins the mood," I said bluntly, my gaze fixed on him.Kendrick leaned back slightly, his eyes were unreadable. "What if one day, you find out that one of your dear friends had lied to you but it was for a good cause. Would you forgive them?"I almost laughed, but instead my lips curled into a thin smile. "If they were lying, I would have known for a while. Just like the way you haven’t been quite honest either...even though that’s what you claim."The words landed. His composure faltered, just for a second. His jaw clenched and his shoulders stiffened. He flinched.I caught it. And I savored it.He swallowed hard and looked down, his Adam’s apple bobbing as though the truth lodged in his throat. He had his reasons, whatever they were. I wasn’t sure if I wanted to hear them all."Your secrets are yours, Kendrick. I don’t want to pry into them." I turned my face back to the ocean, letting the wind whip through m
