Chapter 59"I understand that you don't want any extra help, but it's important for you to take your medication consistently," she says, her voice calm and concerned. Clinton nods in agreement. "It would be more convenient if I could drive you to your apartment so you have easy access to your medication. Additionally, it's concerning that your manager hasn't been informed about your needs. Did you explain the situation to him? And why hasn't your agency CEO taken any action? I suggested you join my agency, but you didn't take my advice," she says, her frustration evident as she rolls her eyes."I asked him to go home because I will be fine and I forgot the drugs today. I apologize," he says with a smirk. "Who smirks in a time like this? This guy is just too strong. How can you be smiling in a situation like that?" she asks, her confusion evident. However, she quickly pulls him into a hug. "You really need this," she says, tears welling up in her eyes.She holds him tightly, her emot
Chapter 60As he listened to their ideas, he found every part interesting as he took note of every detail."I am so impressed. Thanks for working endlessly." He appreciated their efforts, and they were glad he liked it. When they are about to leave for their office, his table phone rings out, and he picks it up. "Mr. Chairman, I hope you are informed about the urgent meeting summoned by the shareholders. You need to be there" President Karen announced.That's too prompt; why are they just giving notice at the last minute? Why if I had a tight schedule?" he demanded, frustration evident in his voice."I also told them about it, but we don't have any option here; you have to be there, she informed, and he nodded slightly."Okay, I will make sure to be there," he said curtly before dropping the call."Mike, you take care of things in the office. Nathan, come with me; there's an urgent meeting" he said authoritatively as he stood up from his seat. They both did as instructed, as Stephan a
Chapter 61Susan couldn't keep up with the heated agreement anymore and rushed out of the house to her car, where she ordered her PA to drive. She couldn't help but think of her parents words; it shows how disappointed and angry they were. But it wasn't also her fault if they hadn't pressured her to get married; she started regretting every part of it. If she had known, she would have treated him better and would have fought her parents for him. And now she's the one paying for everything. He wished Stephen could forgive her, with a hint of hope lingering through her thoughts, but it wasn't as easy as it sounds. It's been almost a month since she's been with him, but there's nothing she did that impressed him; rather, he only finds everything annoying that he didn't even sleep in the same room with her.Arriving at Logan's Mansion. "Maam, we are here." Her PA announced, but she was deep into her thoughts. "Maam, we are here at Logan's Mansion." He announced again, bringing her out of
Chapter 62Stephen walked inside the dimly lit room, its walls adorned with faded floral wallpaper. The air hung with a musty scent, carrying remnants of bygone memories. Weary from his journey, he made his way to the bed, its creaking springs groaning under his weight. His gaze fell upon Susan, her slumber serene and undisturbed. A sense of concern enveloped him as he retrieved his phone from his pocket, a device that had become a lifeline in this restless night. With a heavy heart, he had been dialing Nathalie's number ceaselessly, the minutes stretching into hours. Yet, each attempt seemed futile as the call remained unanswered. The worry gnawed at him, leaving an anxious knot in his stomach, a silent plea for her well-being. Frustrated, he decided to reach out to Nathan who might hold the answers he sought. His trembling fingers tapped Nathan's name on his contact list, desperately hoping for a connection. As the line connected, a wave of relief washed over Stephen. "Where are yo
Chapter 63 Stephen POV I glanced at Nathan, frustration evident in on my face. The way he nonchalantly handled the situation was starting to give me a pounding headache. It baffled me how he could take this whole thing so lightly. After all, he had cheated on Nathalie, and now she was expected to spend an entire year with him. It didn't make any sense to me how she could possibly stay with someone who betrayed her trust so deeply. I couldn't help but conjure up the thought that the guy must have threatened her somehow, persuading her to endure this painful arrangement. Nathalie had confided in me, expressing her conviction that she was completely done with him. Hoping for any small favor, I mustered the courage to make a request. Nathan straightened himself up, shifting closer to me with a self-assured smirk on his face. "Can I asked for a favor?" He asked. "What do you need, boss man?" he asked, seemingly unfazed by the weight of the situation. "Could you please call Nathalie? I
Chapter 64The next morningI woke up to find Susan's hand wrapped around me. With a scoff, I gently removed her hand from my body, causing her to open her eyes. "Good morning, love," Susan greeted me with a smile, gently stretching her hand towards me. "You should understand the importance of respecting boundaries, Susan," I calmly expressed. "Just as you are skilled at setting boundaries, you should also be adept at respecting them. If you dare place your arm on my body again, I'll take it as a serious offense," I warned before standing up from the bed."I'm sorry," she muttered as her voice barely reached my ears. Her apology hung in the air, heavy with contrition. "I haven't been seeing President Karen's daughter around. Where did she go?" Susan's voice broke the tense silence, her curiosity evident. "Are you asking me? Are we that close to be talking about someone else?" My brows furrowed, my expression stern. "There's nothing wrong with asking a question. I was just curious,"
Chapter 65"Sir, the given time Is too limited. There's no way I can get her out. We both know Susan and Mr. Clinton. They are very dangerous. Just promise to protect me, and I will make that happen." His conceded nervousness laced in his words as he tried to maintain his professional demeanor, causing an outburst from Stephen."Why are you suddenly afraid of Mr. Clinton? Didn't you realize that when you were sleeping around with her daughter in the bathroom?" He asked, his unraveling anger taking the better of him."I am sorry, sir; I will do something about it. I will leave now" he said, his voice breaking as he made his way out."Stop," Stephen Shouted, uneased by the situation, trying to reconsider his offer. If he's to think about it, how will it be possible for him to get rid of Susan when his father is involved? But he needed to take action, and if it means conjuring with him, maybe that will be the right decision for now."What type of protection do you need?" he mentioned, "b
Chapter 66After some minute of silence, President Karen took a spoonful of the food. "It's yours to decide now, as the chairman, you have to be very careful and know the type of people to trust." Her words were laced with warnings. "Thanks for calling, I will make sure to address this and fire him instantly. Retaining him in this company might cause us a lot. The tone was final as President Karen nodded in acknowledgement. "That's the best thing to do. People like them shouldn't be shown mercy." She added as they departed after eating to their fill.*****Albert officeHis phone rang, and he checked the caller ID to see it's Mr. Clinton's number. He picked it up. "Why haven't I heard from you? Do you want to see my wrath? Mr. Clinton's voice resonated across as the phone, his tone threatening, sending shivers down his spine"Sir, you need to be patient here, you can't expect me to get things done like that, I might get suspected. I know I owe you, but you also need to consider my j
