CHAPTER SEVENTY-SEVEN THELMA’S POV Finding out that Brian had asked Anton to have me taken out of the project was a big relief for me, notwithstanding the fact that I loved my job so much. The fact that I didn’t have to go to work to see Jax’s face was the last thing I wanted at that moment.Rhys had been trying to reach me for two days, but I figured that he must have figured out the fact that I was not going to ever speak to him again after everything he did.It was another unsuccessful search for a new accommodation, and I was very exhausted. I staggered home and found myself in my hotel room. Davewas with one of the stewards I had to pay some cash to watch over him while I was away.They seemed to be having so much fun, and the fact that the hotel management understood my plight was a big satisfaction. “Mummy!” Daveran to me as soon as he set his eyes on me, jumping off the bed and laughing like he had not seen me for days.I carried him with both hands, but it wasn’t long befo

CHAPTER SEVENTY-NINE JAX’S POV Sylvia had left, and there was no way I could reach her but I knew where she was. She was Rhys, and I hoped that she was going to come back.She was carrying my child, and there was no way I was going to let her go just like that’s. It was bad enough that I had lost one already.I was not going to lose another no matter what was going to happen. That morning was different. There was a little tension merging with the anger that was surging through my vein. I was close to the construction site, but then I realized that there was no one working at that time.I was so intentional about not going so early to work just to avoid the drama of having to face all the workers entirely. “Alpha Jax?” Lara called, causing me to turn at once to see her walking toward me.“I already knew I was going to find you here…” She said with a smile on her face.“What’s going on, Lara? Where is everyone?” I asked with a curious expression plastered all over my face.“Anton as

CHAPTER EIGHTY-ONE RHYS’ POVMy sister was my new partner living with me in the big mansion, but it still felt as though I was all alone without anyone to talk to.Thelma had been gone for a week, and there was no day that passed without me trying to reach her. It was very obvious that she blocked me as soon as she took her things and left the house.“You are still thinking about her, aren’t you?” Sylvia’s voice called me back from my drift. She was standing right there in front of me the whole time. “Aren’t you going to work?” She asked, causing me to lift my head a bit to look at her.“It’s a Saturday morning, Sylvia…” I smirked, and she sighed almost immediately.“I have been forgetting things so easily, Dave. I even forgot that I am supposed to go see the Doctor today. Remember that you promised to come with me…”I sighed. I didn’t think I had the energy to go anywhere that morning. “Please, brother. There is no way I am going there alone. What if something happens to me?”“Not

CHAPTER EIGHTY-THREE RHYS’ POV “Now is the time to strike, Rhys…” Sylvia said while we were still on our way to the car, and I had to stop at that moment. She had a very mischievous look on her face, ad I could tell that she was up to something, but I couldn’t figure it out."What are you thinking, Sylvia?” I asked after a while, but she chuckled softly without saying a word. “I know that look, Sylvia. What are you up to?” I asked again, and she looked around to be certain that no one was listening to us before she gave me an answer to my question. “Jax is weak. This is the right opportunity for us to strike him. He has to pay for all the things he has done to me…” Sylvia was angry at that moment, but I was afraid that she was going to go overboard with whatever plans that were going on in her mind.“We don’t have to stand here and talk about it, Rhys. Come on, we need to get home, I need to eat and rest…” She grunted and started moving to the car.It wasn’t long before Jax walke

CHAPTER EIGHTY-FIVE THELMA’S POVFor a few seconds, I didn’t say a word, but when I realized Brian was waiting for me to speak, I decided it was time to break the silence between us.“What is it? What do you want?” I figured that Brian deserved whatever favor he was going to ask of me, as long as it wasn’t going to be something very difficult for me to do.“I don’t know how this is going to sound, Thelma. And I don’t want you to feel like I am trying to take advantage of you because that’s never my intention…” He scratched the back of his head and totally avoided looking at me.I knew that he was having a very difficult time convincing himself to say what he had in mind, but I was very curious to hear it. He really looked like he was in dire need of whatever was going on in his mind. “You know I can’t read your mind, right? There is no way I can be able to figure out what is actually going on in your mind, Brian. You have to find a way to tell me…” I was gradually losing my patience
