Chapter eighty -one

Kayla After the doctor gave the news that broke the both of us, Ryder drove to his house.I followed suit,each reckless turn he made at the road made me flinch.By the time he got out of the car,at the Brooks mansion, he was the total opposite of what he was a few hours ago.His steps increased,each pace hard and firm. His fists were clenched firmly beside him,till his veins were visible. The sound of his shoe on the marble floor was enough to let a blind man know he was in distressHe pushed open a door and went straight to a drawer.The walls were embroidered with portraits of Mrs Ophelia Brooks, the quilt was rumbled,a glass of water and a pill was on the bed. Ryder glanced at the pill with a sad cheekHe opened every drawer,fumbled on paperworks and documents and each time his eyes depleted and his jaw clicked.My back rested on the door frame, my heart beat was still twice its normal and for a second when he threw a document on the floor,my head ached.I didn't realize how long

Chapter eighty -two

Kayla Mrs Ophelia had whined, told us countless times to go home even though it was against Ryder's will.She had teased Ryder about his relationship with me and told me about the silly things Ryder had done while he was in his teens, one of which also meant looking for me.I had laughed at Ryder who looked like he was beaten by the rain, and even dragged his reluctant body out of the hospital ward to let Mrs Ophelia rest undisturbed but presently in the car, the silence that stretched between us was hard enough to make a child cry.My back shifted on the seat and relaxed a little as Ryder ignited the car engine. He turned to look at me after we had gone through the highway to a road with traffic.“Thank you," His hoarse voice said almost in a whisper like he was finding the right word to say.“You're welcome." I flashed him my best smile and he spared the road traffic a glance before turning to me again.“Your Mum is fine,I know it hurts but try to get past that feeling and know that

Chapter eighty -three

RyderThe kiss we shared has never been so real...I could feel the sincerity, each time my lips parted hers, each time I held her so close to me, for fear that she might slip from my watch. It was so sincere, pure but surreal..Our lips parted just enough to let her uneven breath steady. "You're cute..." She smiled and my heart stopped for a moment. When it came back, it hammered hard against my chest. '' Why don't I show you how cute I am in the room?." I raised her from the floor as she giggled continuously. I took long strides to my room and the heavy door closed behind us with a slight thud that echoes down the hallway.I've never felt so grateful for her existence. A revelation of my birth reality hung losely on my neck but she made it go away effortlessly. She make me see things in a more....moreWait..She's ......undressing..." Kayla..i.." The remaining words got stuck in my throat when she held her index finger between my lips. "I really want you to do things to me till my

Ryder“You're living fine. That's the reason you get to deny my company's access to align with yours, Mister Brooks." That scoff in his voice was enough for me to punch him hard on his goddamn face.My grip on my pen tightened and I turned to look at him. " I see you have bad intentions towards me.” He smirked. " And I want nothing more than to get those bad intentions to happen." Liam coughed on nothing and stood up from his seat across the table. My hands stopped him before he could say a word to Noah.“Leave the two of us," Liam hesitated for almost a minute. " Sir..” He swallowed his remaining words when his eyes met mine.The sound of his chair uncomfortably screeching on the floor made me spiral my fountain pen. When he left,it was just the both of us. Noah and I." Do you count these,” My finger snapped to his document that lay neatly on the meeting desk. " Do you count these as a facade to get you into the Brooks company?”He chuckled and passed the documents he had next to h

Chapter eighty -five

Kayla“What do you mean our stock price has reduced?Do you have a death wish?” My heart hammered hard against my chest. After the stock reduction the last time, I tried so hard to bring it up and now she's telling me it reduced again?.Riley dumped a stack of files on my desk and dropped a pen forcefully at the top of the flies. “I told you,” she sat heavily on her chair." I don't know how to deal with the investors and I'm not smart enough to deal with some investors." I flipped through the files,each one waited for my signature. All of them. “And you didn't think it was appropriate for you to sign these documents!?." I felt my head spin for a split second but Riley sat unbothered on her seat." Riley…. what job did I pay you every single month for?,” " To be your assistant,miss Moreno. Your personal assistant. One who calls you for your CEO duties. I'm not in charge of signing whatever has your awaiting signature laid on it. “Well that's partially true but.." You could have cal

Chapter eighty -six

Kayla The door to the Moreno mansion was wide open and the moment I got in the ooze from the door made me sneeze twice. Liana's back faced me as she prepared something sluggishly on the kitchen counter with a ton of dirt and used soda cans at the top of the counter. "Liana!" My voice echoed down the first storey of the house. She turned, looked at me and gave me a dirty grin. That grin that she had always used while we were still little. "You haven't stepped foot inside the Moreno mansion since you had your first marriage,sister. So I wondered ' What can I do? to bring her here?' then it clicked. I knew what that would be and now look at you right in front of me..." She let out a sarcastic laugh. My nose wrinkled when I perceived it. The smell of 'sex' and alcohol. My palms clenched together into a fist the more I let myself look at her. "What did you do to father?." I asked hervhrough gritted teeth. Her spatula dropped hard on the marble counter and her eyes flashed "What shoul

Ryder FLASH BACK Liam walked inside the meeting venue the minute Noah walked out of the place but I was already a few feets away from the door. "I don't...want to see him near the premises of Brooks Company." Liam paused his lips before he nodded slightly. "I'd go pick up my Mum. You'd have to cover my schedules for the rest of the day." My hands reached for my car keys on my desk when I reached my office. Liam groaned right at my back. "I can hear you..." "Mister.." "You whine like a kid these days, Liam. You do realize you have a huge paycheck every month, right?" I grabbed my suit from the back of my chair. "That's just enough to do my job perfectly as an assistant. Not a CEO." he muttered under his breath just enough for me to hear. "Don't you think it's high time for me to suggest you to the board?. You're the right person for that position." I turned to see his eyes popped wide. "What position, Mister Brooks.?" My hand patted his back. "I need to woo Kayla prope

Kayla A WEEK LATEROnce,I saw a quote that said ‘ Continue to live..until you have a reason to live.’ It didn't make any difference to me until I started to face hurdles that are hard to slip away from. Do I have to face all these when I just started to have my spark back?. I don't. That's why I won't let it bring me down. Even if Liana is somewhere presently being rebellious against me. I..I need my sanity.. even if I have struggled to see Dad alive. I have to be fine…for everyone “You dare..not," I snapped when Ryder took my booze away from my hands.He turned with a gleaming smile and flicked my forehead. " Don't. Today, we'd just take soda and enjoy the evening.”Right. I nodded and let him take my handbag from my hand and walked my way to his car. He let the car door open for me and gestured to the door. A chuckle slipped from my mouth before I could stop it.“What's funny?," He greased his brow.“The fact that you're acting all sweet towards me." I said, voice low.His lips

Chapter eighty -nine

Kayla The next day The morning breeze hit me from the window and clearly reminded me that I needed to get my lazy ass off the bed and go to work. Trusting Riley to do my work wasn't a good idea and the thought of the stack of files that waited patiently for me on my desk made me shudder. Of course I was all alone in this.. I was soon ready after a whole catastrophe I made and called breakfast. An outrageous amount of soap I added to my bath water.. and the clumsy messy bun I made. What's even wrong with me? I really hope the drive to Moreno Enterprise won't be another temptation. Well,it wasn't. And Riley won't stop pestering me no matter how occupied I am. “Apart from the nights where you both had a contract. Have you both done anything else?” My pen seized to move when she asked me that question. " See. You both have. And I can see he's good.” She patted her desk slightly. " What?” " He's good. That's why you stopped moving and your face.." She gestured round my face.

Kayla OUTSIDE THE HOSPITAL “What did my dad talk to you about?" Ryder didn't even spare me a glance nor did he even think of giving me an answer. He smacked his lips and put both his hands in his side pocket." Guess?” He grinned at me.Guess?. Would I even bother to ask if I guessed it right?. “Forget it.”He smiled and held my hand. “Good thing he's fine. Now you won't get to bother yourself about him for now. Should I get you something to eat?What should I cook for you? Are we going over to your place?.” He opened the car door for me and ran around to the car.“Let's just have pizza. Go back to work,” I turned to look at him when he accelerated the car engine. “Why do you come around while Liam does the work?" He popped his eyes. “Huh?"“Riley makes me do all the work because her husband is in distress.” He chuckled. " I'd do exactly that.” We stopped at the Nile Restaurant that wasn't far from the office and Ryder walked in to get what I ordered.I realized that I didn't let h
