After closing from work, Kate followed Aidan. Although, she was unsettled in the car when she followed him but then what can she do? It has become mandatory for her to go and plead with Mrs. Frederick. Maybe she will listen to her, or else Kate will spend her life in the streets begging for food.On their way to Aidan's house, they entered the same car. Unfortunately, none of them say a word to the other person. Rather they remained silent from the company headquarters to Mr.Frederick's mansion.Their focus was on their phones, rather than bringing up a conversation to keep the place lively.Kate could only imagine how they would have been driven home with Aidan like this if they were still married. It would have been nice, but currently, they are no longer couples. Maybe that's why they find it difficult to talk to each other.After a few minutes of riding around the city, they finally arrived at Mr. Frederick's mansion.Immediately the mansion gate was opened Aidan didn't hesitate
Instead of starting to move out of the house, Kate stiffened in one position as tears flowed down her cheeks as she gazed at Mrs. Frederick with a worrisome and pleading expression.If only this woman knows how she needs this job, she won't say this to her, rather, she might even get promoted so she can earn more money.On the other hand, Aidan stood speechless as he watched Kate with sympathy, but there was no way to make his mother understand what Kate was going through at the moment.He wished he could explain things to his Mom, but she wasn't ready to listen to both of them.“You ingrate,” Mrs. Frederick finally ended the long silence and eased the tension in the room.“ Are you not ashamed of yourself, huh? My son lowered himself to your class level just to help you out of your poverty, yet you all decided to pay him back in humiliation. Causing him to feel like a nobody and unwanted." The woman who was in her early fifties raged at Kate.Unfortunately, Kate couldn't bear the insul
Immediately, her face changed over time. She furiously clenched her fist and walked up to the young man who had stood up from his seat after seeing her.However, Kate's Mom, Mrs. Emily was sitting on another couch opposite the young man, but Kate ignored her Mom and gestured towards the young man.“What are you doing in my house?” Kate asked scornfully through gritted teeth as she glared at the man.“Kate, aren't you happy to see me after a couple of weeks without seeing me?” Antonio asked.She thought Kate was going to be happy after seeing him, but the opposite just happened and he was disappointed.“Do I look like I care if I haven't seen you for weeks? Huh? Why have you decided to visit me today? Is it when you are lonely that you remember me?” she quarreled with him.“No, Kate. I had the intention of coming but I couldn't because I have been busy these past few weeks.” “See Antonio, I don't know what you are here to find in my house, but let me warn you. When you are done admirin
Now, Felix fled away from his city to a place far away from his family members. A place he thinks he is safe because no one knows him there, country B. Transport fare wasn't a barrier to him because he had made a lot of money in the past few months since he joined a kidnapping gang.Ever since the day the family cars were stolen by unknown men, Felix has been unsettled and he decided to join a bad gang.Wait, were the cars stolen by unknown men? Absolutely no, Felix conspires with some men to steal the two cars. The cars were sold and the men gave him his share. He did this after Kate informed him that the cars are going to be sold to support her business, but Felix didn't complain much. Felix pondered about it because he wasn't ready to lose his car because of Kate's so-called business. She gave him the car as a gift, so why would she pressurize him to sell what had become his? That's when the thought of meeting those men popped up in his mind. The cars were sold but he didn't gi
With money, everything becomes easy to deal with. Aidan assisted Sharon in rebuilding the company that was destroyed without demanding a dime from Anna and her team.Aidan allowed the police to go ahead and do whatever pleased them to do with the hooligans.Now, Aidan was in Sharon's house to discuss a few things with them. Since Aidan and Sharon started dating, this was the first time he was visiting her family.In the lounge, Sharon could be spotted sitting beside Aidan as she took his hand into hers and sat like couples during their wedding ceremony.On the opposite side, Sharon's family members could be seen sitting with smiles on their faces.On the couches were Sharon's two little siblings, a boy and a girl who were around 10-14 years of age.“It's a thing of joy to receive someone like you as a visitor, Mr. Aidan.” Sharon's father, Mr. Charles said with a smiling face while resting his back on the sofa.“Thank you, sir, for welcoming me into your house,” Aidan respectfully appre
After the meeting, Aidan dismissed them to get back to their various offices. They left the office and Aidan chuckled.He saw the unspoken questions Kate wanted to ask him, but she reserved it to herself. Maybe she was scared to ask him.However, Aidan was happy with her confused expression. He wishes everything he does can appear as a shock to Kate in the same way she shocked him with her divorce letter.Yeah, he has forgiven her, but he just wants to do something that would make her not try the same thing to her new unknown future husband.“Has he ever traveled with a female secretary without booking two rooms?” Kate inquired after stopping Mr. Donald in the alley just a few inches away from Aidan's office.“No, this is the first time and I'm wondering why he made such a decision.” Mr. Donald responded to Kate as they stood and faced each other.Unfortunately, Anita who just stepped out of the elevator spotted Kate and Mr. Donald discussing something. She was going to see Aidan with
At first, the security man wanted to quickly open the door and enter to see what was wrong with Kate. Of course, he knew that it was Kate's office.Unfortunately, he didn't do that; rather he informed his colleagues to quickly come up to floor five.However, when he couldn't bear the groaning coming from the office, he forcefully pushed the door and stomped inside with his gun well-positioned.Immediately he entered inside, he was dumbfounded by what he saw. Two ladies were fighting and blood was already split to the ground.The slim lady was firmly on her feet as she held a shard in her hands, ready to pierce the throat of the lady on the table.Kate was able to obstruct the vase from reaching her head with her hands because Anita was aiming for her head.Luckily for Kate, she crossed her arms and protected the vase from reaching her head and it broke to pieces on her hands. Nevertheless, she sustained an injury and blood flowed down her arms.Unfortunately, Anita picked one of the s
“Argh…!” Anita screamed out in agony as she lightly covered her face with her palms.The resounding slap from Aidan's hands was beyond imagination because it moved Anita off her position to the wall.This was his first time slapping someone, a woman at that. The last time Aidan raised his hand at someone was when he was in tertiary school and some of his mates were bullying him.When he was fed up with the whole thing, he beat them up. Since then he had never slapped or fought anyone again, except the day he defended himself from Felix who was trying to harm him and snatch the check that was given to him by Kate as make-up. Even Mr. Donald knew about this, including a few people around him.Now, today he slapped a woman after countless years of staying calm and reserved. Only God knows how furious he was.Kate's eyes widened in shock at what she saw. It was unbelievable to see Aidan do that to a woman. Does that mean he loves Kate this much?Kate was lost in thoughts as she ignored th
