Jolene's POV The moment my eyes met with his, I faced somewhere else so quickly, acting like I hadn't noticed he was coming towards my direction. My eyes scanned the place as I looked for a quick escape. Vincent and Isaac kept trying so hard to hold back their laughterA small smile formed on my face when I found Mr. Jonathan, one of my old business partners standing in front of one of the large paintings. In a bid to avoid Brian, I began walking towards Mr Jonathan without a second thought. “Looks like she hates his guts.” I heard Isaac say behind me. “He’s such a jerk, he deserves it.” Vincent replied. I had taken the first and second step towards Mr Jonathan, but as I was about to take the third, then I saw a waitress approaching, I hadn't seen her before and I guess she hadn't noticed me either. Trying to pause, she tripped instead and then began reaching for something to hold onto to avoid her from spilling the drinks, but there was none. It all happened so fast, I didn't ev

Jolene's POV For years, I begged him to touch me. Want me. Treat me like a man would treat his wife. But he never did any of that. He just left me wanting, begging. There were nights I had to quench the fire in my body by soaking myself in an ice bath. Those nights, I cried myself to sleep knowing that I was in need of my husband, but he was somewhere else giving freely what I begged of him to another woman. I could have found another way to implicate him without letting him lay a finger on me, but I knew exactly what I was doing. I knew why I let him kiss me, why I let him believe he could have me. And now that the fire has sparked inside of him, he'll be the one wanting. And no matter how many times he sleeps with Sophia, he still wouldn't be able to have his fill. He still wouldn't be able to erase me from his memory. For a moment, I almost listened to the thought in my head that said, ‘This is what you've always wanted. You always wished for him to look at you with this much d

Jolene's POVThe joy of knowing that I was resuming work seemed to be much greater than the joy I had when I was handed the company in the first place. Actually, then I felt happiness mixed with a lot of anxiety and nervousness. But now, it felt like I was alive again.But despite the joy that enveloped me, I have to be very careful because I can't afford to repeat the same mistake.I didn't need Jason or an alarm to wake me up today. At around 3:30 AM, my eyes fell open, and nothing I did to get myself back to sleep seemed to be working.I went on my knees and said a little prayer and immediately started with my preparations for work.I had already taken out my outfit for today yesterday; I like to be at least one step ahead so I don't wake up confused, thinking of what to wear and trying different outfits, basically wasting my time.I headed for Jason's room next, knowing that he would wake up soon.The rest of the morning happened in a blur; I finished with Jason, had my bath, got

Brian’s POVI barely slept that night.Not because I was worried about the meeting. At least, tha was what I kept telling myself. But every time I closed my eyes, the same thought returned.Beaumont Group.Jolene.I couldn’t just understand why she had suddenly decided to reschedule the meeting. I tossed around in bed for what felt like hours before eventually giving up on sleep.I began to prepare for work even before the day could brighten fully. I got dressed, picked up the proposal documents, and headed out.I wasn’t going to sit around trying to figure out what Jolene was planning. The only way to find out was to go there myself.I arrived at Beaumont Group not long after. The moment I stepped inside, the familiar environment greeted me. Everything about the place looked as organized as ever.I walked toward the receptionist, who by now probably hated to see me coming.“Good morning.”“Good morning, Mr. Whitmore.”I nodded.“I have a meeting with the chairwoman.”The receptionist

Brian's POV “Focus, Brian." I found myself saying time and time again since I returned from meeting Jolene.I had gone to inform the board, and we had set tomorrow to review the proposal together, and now I was back in my office. But somehow, I just couldn't get myself to focus on any of the work I was doing. That had to be like the most frustrating thing I had to deal with today. I couldn't stop thinking of the way she looked behind that desk like she had been doing it for years now, meanwhile, I could remember vividly how she would run errands for mom and Tiffany, basically being a maid in her husband's house. She never kicked against it, and overtime, I found myself disgusted by all of that, so much that I even joined my mom and Tiffany to address her as that. Thinking about it now, even if she wasn't ‘Jolene Beaumont ’, I just realised that maybe we had gone a little too far with the way we treated her back then. That was probably the reason she was so eager to finally cut tie
