All Chapters of Used By My Husband; Desired By His Son : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Amelia's POV.My heart pounded as I clicked the file. It was the wrong file after all. Jayden was surely going to be in for a mess caused by me but I guess I would just have to act all innocent.I kept my face neutral, like as though I wasn't just about to commit an evil act. Jayden continued speaking smoothly.I almost wanted to burst out laughing because he had so much confidence and aura. Not knowing, everything was about to flip over.“As you can see from the projected avenue growth_” One of the investors frowned. That was when I knew I had hit the jackpot. Another investor leaned closer to the screen, because what was displayed had nothing to do with what Jayden was saying. There was confusion in their faces which didn't go unnoticed by Jayden. I saw the exact second it happened.But as for Jayden, he still kept on talking professionally and controlled until one investor finally interrupted.“Mr Lawson. Are you trying to waste our time?” the investor dropped the bomb, as Jayde

Amelia's POV.Rain had never felt so cruel to me before that night. It was something I always used to love, but that night it became something I believed I was going to hate for life.It wasn't just water falling from the sky. It felt like needles piercing against my soft skin. It was darkness surrounding the deserted road. It was my shoes soaking through as I walked because I had no other choice.He had told me it would just take me six hours for me to reach home. But I didn't even make it halfway before they came for me.I met with some group of guys. There were three of them, they were laughing, they looked completely drunk and unaware of their senses. But when their eyes landed on me, their food steps slowed down. Then one of them whistled at me before speaking up.“Hey sweetheart. The most beautiful girl under the rain. Where are you going to by this time of the night and all alone?” he mocked.It wasn't even as though I stood to answer them back. I ignored them and I began to w

Amelia's POV.The first thing I heard was the beeping sound of the machine. Then, that strong hospital smell that made everything seem real to me.My eyes felt heavy when I tried to open them. My head was aching badly, not as bad as before but I could still feel the headache.my vision finally cleared off, I saw the white walls, then my eyes landed on Jayden.Jaden was seated beside me on the bed, His hands were joined together like he had been thinking too hard and saying a prayer.For a second, I thought I was still dreaming then I spoke up. “What happened?” I asked, my voice coming off dry and weak.His head snapped up at me immediately. “You're awake. Actually, the thing here is you fainted.”“Did I faint at the meeting?” “Not at the meeting. But you fainted outside so I had to rush you to the hospital.” he replied.I tried to raise my body to sit upright but dizziness overwhelmed me. In the moment, I felt a firm hand press onto my shoulder. “Don’t stress yourself,” he said.M

Amelia's POV.My phone buzzed at 11.47pm. I was already under the duvet, the lights were off. I was just staring at the wall like sleep had personally decided to avoid me.NR_27: Are you awake?I smiled before I could stop myself.INK111: Writers don't sleep. We overthink.I sent the message. The three dots appeared immediately, it must actually be nice and I frowned slightly.INK111: Not really, what's wrong? Talk to me.There was a longer pause this time. I imagined NR staring at the screen the way I did when I didn't know how to explain something without explaining too much.Finally I got my answer.NR_27: I have been awful. That is how I feel.I swallowed hard, reading the reply.INK111: Awful how?NR_27: I think I am not just a good person.My chest tightened when I read the message. There was something raw about the way he typed. Usually he was sarcastic, playful, hiding behind jokes. Tonight felt different.INK111: What happened?NR_27: I hurt someone who didn't deserve it.My

Amelia's POV.“You hate me right?” he said, he didn't sound that though he was asking me a question but as though he was stating a fact.“I don't know what to feel about you.” I finally said, looking up at him. That actually seemed to hurt him more than if I had said yes to him. He took a step back.“Maybe that's fair enough.” he said, then he turned slightly like he was about to walk away again.I reached out and grabbed his hand before I could stop myself. “Why?” I asked again, but this time around my voice was softer. “What really changed between us?”He didn't look at me as he spoke. “I just realized some things.”“Things like what?” I questioned with curiosity.There was a little bit of silence. My heart was beating too fast for someone who had just nearly drowned.“Jayden,” I said carefully. “What's wrong?”He remained quiet. He didn't say a word to me but I wouldn't just stop talking. “You hate me.” I continued slowly. “You've always hated me. So what is this?”He still wou
