Chapter 81
Sean whirled around, turning on Amelia. “What the hell is wrong with you?!” He breathed angrily, his hands balling into fists by his side. She batted her lashes innocently, a smug grin on her life. “I have no idea what you're talking about.” Sean walked her toward the nearest wall. “Talk or else I'll squeeze the truth from your windpipe!” “You wouldn't dare…” she looked around, bravado oozing from her pores. “Not while there are cameras rolling anyway.” Sean came to his senses then, knowing she was right. The last they needed was a bad video circulating after what just happened. Punching the wall with his fist close to her head, Sean snarled. “You think you're so fast huh? Guess what? I'm on to you!” “It's funny…after everything, we've been through you're so quick to cast me aside.” Her eyes turned sad, trying to draw him in but he refused. “Cast you aside?!” Sean's tone dripped with disbelief. “I loved you, Amelia! I would have done anything for you had you asked but no… you

Chloe hugged her knees tighter when she heard the crunch of twigs behind her.Well, her solace lasted for so long anyway.Squaring her shoulders, she didn't bother to wipe the tear tracks off her face.It's funny how your entire world can come crashing down in the space of seconds. One moment she was so happy, she thought she would burst from the seams with it, and the next horror like she couldn't comprehend settled in her bones.To think about it, the worst part was Sean sitting there without saying a word.At the end of it all, Chloe knew at the back of her mind that it was a fantasy.Nothing was that simple…not when it came to her.“Chloe, can you hear me?” Sean called out as he neared. “It's me, Sean.”Chloe kept her lips glued shut until he had the decency to appear in front of her. “What took you so long?” she croaked out.Sean hurried to her, kneeling in front of her. “I'm so sorry, I had to fix the mess Amelia caused.”“You mean the mess you caused?” She raised her head to lo

His heart was heavy, Sean beat on the ground, looking for any means possible to assuage the pain he felt. One that was rapidly spreading with every minute that passed by in which Chloe was not by his side. Sean wanted to blame everyone. Moriah, Amelia, and even Caesar but ultimately he knew that they were just placeholders. How to fix this? Chloe was right. There was a 50 percent chance that Amelia's baby belonged to him- even though he hoped not- and if that was true, what does that mean for his relationship? As it stands, he might be forced to choose between them. Fucking hell! “Well, well, well. Look who's lost everything in a matter of seconds.” Clement's annoying cackle pierced Sean's thoughts. Sinking his fingers deep into the earth, Sean debated on ignoring him. “But then again, that's what being cocky will get you.” Clement droned on, puffing his chest as he looked at the pathetic excuse of a brother who was bawling his eyes out because of a woman. “It's sad really.

Chloe wrapped her hands around her body, shaking badly.She managed to avoid being seen by people around, sneaking out to flag down a taxi.The driver looked her over before stopping. That is when she took a good look at her outfit. Grass stains edged the white lace and mud-stained her feet. From the reflection of the car window, Chloe saw twigs in her hair and how scattered it was.Trying to smooth it down, Chloe ratted out her address and got into the car.The cab driver kept glancing at her through the rearview mirror but Chloe ignored it, fluffing her hair around her face to hide it.When he pulled up near the apartment, Chloe caught sight of her sister, Maeve pacing up and down.Meanwhile, Chloe flew into her sister's arms, wrapping her hands around her neck and hugging her tightly. “Where were you?!” Maeve moved back, starting at her sister, relief the size of a well in her chest. “I was looking all over you, I thought something had happened!”Immediately, she flew out of the c

If there was any other word to describe how he felt apart from devasted, Sean would have discovered it by now.As it stands, not only has he lost the claim to the CEO position but he's also lost the best thing that has happened to him in a while.Chloe.She refused to pick up his calls so that he could at least explain his side of the story to her. It wasn't until he got back to the hall, that he found out that her purse, with her phone included, was abandoned there.Her sister, Maeve was also a no-go area. At least, she had the decency to tell him to his face.Chloe just fell off the face of the earth.No social media, no contact. It was scary in a way but that gave Sean more time to focus his energy on important things.Now that his head was clearer, he took his time counting down the days he last laid with Amelia.According to his calculations, she must be fatter than she says she was, that's if the child is his.Confused and a walking shell of his former self, Sean took advice fr

Magnus held the last Cuban cigarette he had in between his fingers, parked on the other side of the road.The tip was lit, smoke billowing from its ends.

Two days ago….(Before the visit to Chloe's home)Moriah kept tapping her pencil against her mug, deep in thought.Her gaze darted towards the clock as she checked the time. He was late.She knew it was a deliberate attempt to make her wait and get more antsy.Fucking Clement!The door opened and the man he was thinking about walked in, his face all smug.“Took your sweet time getting here, didn't you?” She spoke up, stopping the pen. “Well, you know what they say, Mother, beauty takes time,” Clement smirked, taking a seat in front of her.“Really? So does scheming and plotting against your brother.” Moriah retorted. Anger bubbled up in her lungs but she managed to restrain it. “How could you, Clement?”“Is this why you called me here?” He had a bored look on his face but Moriah knew that it was just a front to mask his true feelings. “To whine about your favorite son?”The pen in her hands snapped due to the force she applied on it but Moriah calmly drew her hand back, adopting a ca

“Prove it,” Clement spoke. “If you're on my side, I'm going to need you to prove it to me.”Moriah was torn. There's no way she thought that he would dive straight in.Squaring her shoulders and raising her chin, she nods. “Okay, fine. What do you want me to do?”“Chloe.” Folding his hands behind his back, Clement walked around like he was in charge. “Sean loves her, even way more than Amelia. If you can get her to hate him enough to not talk to him anymore then I'll know you're on my side. Sean would be heartbroken, and henceforth useless.”He stared at her, waiting for her to come to a verdict. A part of him told him that Moriah would be up to it.She might act like a ruthless businesswoman when it came e to it, but to her family, she was as gentle as a bird.Seconds ticked by while Clement waited for a reply. The ideal thing would be to say no and find a way to work together with Sean and bring Clement down.The maternal side of her knew that Clement was only inflicting hurt on Sea

While Chloe followed the doctor in, she shit off a text to Maeve, telling her to keep Ethan occupied a little longer, just until she had a beating of the situation.“Please, have your seat.” He opened the door, a pleasant smile on his face as he ushered her into the sterile-looking room.The small office was bereft of any personal items save a mug that says ‘Best Doc Ever’ and a calendar that looked to be abused judging by the number of marks it had on it.“Nice office.” Chloe offered, not sure what to say in this scenario.“Thanks,” Robin said taking his seat at the other end of the desk. “So, Miss…?”“Chloe.” She eagerly filled in. “My name is Chloe.”“Right.” He waved it off, diving straight into it. “Like I said earlier, your uncle's wife's case is quite severe.” Sliding a pair of files to her, he prompted her to take a look. “The car's airbag deployed immediately after the hit so that helped her head stabilize a bit. The only part I'm worried about is the rest of her body…”The d

According to her, a space in her schedule just magically opened up when she called.Chloe sensed something fishy but she kept it to herself, boarding the next bus out of the hospital while making sure neither Ethan nor Maeve saw her and tried to stop her.She couldn't handle either of their troubles at the moment.Lambert Inc was only twenty minutes away but it felt like an eternity away, with Chloe looking out the window watching cars pass by.Anything to keep her off the impending meeting that could equally decide if Christy lives or dies.The cab pulled up in front of the massive building, putting an end to the thoughts swirling around in her mind.Leaving the cabbie with a handsome tip, Chloe hesitated for a second, not sure where to go from here.Moriah, ever the gracious hostess anticipated that which was why there was a man dressed in a black suit who hovered
