Scott’s POVScott watched as Nathan left the kitchen and out of the house. It sometimes felt surreal when he saw Nathaniel in flesh and blood, having almost given up hope that his brother would wake up from the coma. Somehow, his brother had survived that and made a remarkable recovery. He sighed and shook his head, as he caught Bethany glancing at him.“Strange, isn’t it?” he mumbled after a brief silence.Bethany blinked and stepped over to take the seat opposite him. She placed both of her elbows on the table and placed her head on her interlocked fingers. “I would say too strange. It’s as if he became a totally different person. His food choices have changed too, have you noticed?” she asked him.He nodded. Scott had noticed the full and complete change but had not really had the opportunity to concentrate on it. Nathan had been in a coma for ten years, so it was inevitable that certain things would change. He just wasn’t expecting this much change.Scott scoffed, shaking his he
Scott’s POV Scott frowned as he felt a shudder run down his spine. “What are you talking about? The accident ten years ago? How is that possible? My father makes sure the cars are always in great condition, especially Nathan’s ride…” he muttered.It had taken their father several begging and pleading for him to get Nathan a car, so the man made sure that the cars were always in good condition to prevent any malfunction.Hayden ran his hand over his hair. “Well, it wasn’t,” he murmured, opening the folder for Scott to examine. He saw images of something he couldn’t make sense of. Even though Scott knew it was the accident scene because he had been there, he had seen it, but he didn’t know what he should be looking at.“What am I looking at?” he said, peering at the photographs.Detective Hayden pointed at one of the photographs and said, “This is the car brake system. Do you see this cut made here? It’s smooth and not normal. We checked it out in the lab and discovered that it was cu
Nathan’s POV Nathan walked back to his office after the encounter with Elizabeth Murray, deep in contemplation. Knowing full well that the woman in the video was Elizabeth, He wondered why the woman still insisted on lying when it was clear to her that she was the one in the video.As he stepped out of the elevator and made his way down the hall to the CEO’s office, a heavy sigh escaped his lips. If the woman wanted to play, then he was fully ready to play the game with her.While he was lost with his thoughts, he had failed to recognize the person who passed him until the person stopped and spoke.“Oh my!, Hold up Nathan!” He was halted by someone. Nathan felt a sudden grasp on his arm and he blinked in surprise. He quickly turned around to see who had stopped him.Samuel, he noticed.“Hey,” he greeted the man, glancing at Samuel.Samuel arched a brow, releasing the grasp he had on Nathan. “Are you okay?” He asked. “You seem to be lost in thought,” he noted.Nathan shook his head,
Nathan’s POV He swiped to the next file that appeared like a proposal from Rivers Estates, but he was not comprehending anything. Maybe he needs to be taught how to read a business proposal and plan. All he could see as he flipped the pages were structures and architectural design plans.Every other component of operating a firm had come effortlessly to him; he didn’t know if it was because he was presently occupying Nathaniel Hayes body, but he seemed to understand certain business concepts except this one; Proposal.“The layout plan is already set, and we’re waiting for your go ahead and authorization to carry on with the project” Nicholas stated, talking directly to him.Nathan looked up at Nicholas. This was the first time the man had spoken up since the meeting started. Nicholas no longer had the carefree voice that Nathan associated with him. Nicholas looked all formal and business like.He snorted, dropping the iPad on the table. While he had been going through the documents,
Scott's POVWhen Scott exited the station, he was not himself. Thinking about all that Detective Hayden had told him, he almost went back home, but then changed his mind and made the decision to at least go to the office and show up.Scott had briefly nodded to the people who greeted him at the company and had headed straight for the private elevator before any other person intercepted him. He wanted to make himself as scarce as possible.He gave his secretary a nod before going into his office. Since he had been recovering at home, Nathan had been using this specific office; their father's office which was the office occupied by the company's president and CEO.But now that Scott was back, he would either need to relocate to the only other office on that level or continue to work in his father's office while Nathan stayed in the other one.Whichever one, he was going to let Nathan make that decision.Gazing at the paper he had gotten at the station, he sighed. It included his signa
Nathan's POVWith a groan, Nathan watched as Samuel blasted out of the office, shutting the door behind him with a loud bang. " What a showoff" he muttered, rolling his eyes when Scott cut him a glare.According to Scott, when he had woken up from his coma, Samuel was one of the nice people that he could trust, since the man was supposed to be best friends with Nathaniel. Therefore, Nathan really didn't want to irritate or upset Samuel and had done everything he could to be cordial with Samuel. However, he couldn't shake the feeling that something was off.He wondered why Samuel was so insistent on this particular deal. It wasn't an omission that Samuel had not seen that the sub contractor for the Project was missing. Nathan guessed that Samuel had decided to overlook it, but why?Scott signaled for Nathan to pay attention by clearing his throat. Nathan rolled his eyes again as he centered his gaze on his brother. He opened his mouth to tease Scott, but his brother had a serious lo
Nathan’s POV"I'm absolutely thrilled to be having lunch with the legendary Hayes brothers," Susan Spike exclaimed with a delighted expression on her face.At that very moment, Nathan wanted to roll his eyes, but he had a feeling there was a daily limit to how many times it could be tolerated. While biting into a steak he had prepared, he let out a heavy sigh, making sure that Scott heard him.While Scott continued to avoid looking at him, he leisurely chewed the steak and smirked. Was this what eating in a five star restaurant looked like, he thought.The restaurant was calm with a song playing at the background while men and women whose pockets held more money than he could count. The meal was delicious and if there was any good thing that had come out of the lunch date with Susan, it was the food.It was no surprise to him that Scott had already planned lunch, but he hadn't anticipated that anyone else would show up. Scott had tricked him into coming for the lunch with Susan Spike
Nathan’s POVNathan stepped in, “I’ll take that,” he said, snatching the envelope Susan had given to them at the restaurant from Scott. “Thank you!,” he exclaimed as he rushed into his office and shut the door before Scott could say anything more.Nathan felt relieved, even though he didn’t understand why Scott hadn’t followed him but had left him alone. He had been expecting his brother to come after him in order to take the envelope back from him. Maybe Scott felt that he wanted to familiarize himself with the deal.He went straight to his chair and sat down, pulling the documents out of its envelope right away. As he turned on his computer, he was going to catch up on the project so he could figure out exactly how to exact his retribution, but someone knocked on the door.He raised his head to the door, curious as to who it may be. “Come in,” he said, watching as the door opened and an unfamiliar woman entered his office. Helen had to have let that stranger up if they were on th
