The Return of Tyler Redwood Chapter 74
Katarina retired herself in the accounting room where she sat observing how their stocks plummeted by the second. She had to place a call to someone she had who was a reporter to help her find who leaked the news of how the family supported the mayor with illegal money for his re-election process to the press.Unfortunately, the person had no leads leaving her back at where she started.With every minute that passed by, she grew restless, the feeling of helplessness threatening to overwhelm her.She wasn't one for religious activities but at this point, she was at her wit’s end and she offered a prayer to whoever was listening, believing that there was no loss in trying in the first place.Two hours later, Leeland reported back to her that two of their big-time investors had pulled out and their stocks now we're down to 40 percent.The stocks were down by 60%, that is the end of their company they would have no choice but to liquidate and set up the rest of the shares or declare bankr

A knock sounded on her door making Katarina ways her tired head up.She was currently using an office that belonged to one of the regional managers who was not in the country presently. Ever since this rumor thing started and the stocks started going down, everything has been crazy for the past couple of days.She has not been able to sleep regularly or even properly as they were always monitoring the stocks, trying to reach out to probable investors so that they could pump money into the company and elevate their sales game but everybody kept turning them down. Quite frankly everybody seems to have given up and it's made Katarina look as though she was fighting a losing battle but she refused to give up hope.It was in times like this that she missed Tyler fiercely, but nevertheless, she tried to keep her chin up and a positive disposition around her knowing that the minute she threw in the towel it was as well as gone. “Amanda, how can I help you?” She asked the young woman steppi

“Hey, honey how did it go?” Dylan's head popped up when he heard the front door open. Katerina looked like a drowned rat, her hair hanging limply around her neck as she walked forward, looking sad and defeated.“Come over here,” Esther and Dylan set up worried about their daughter. “Are you okay?” they surrounded her, enveloping her with all the love and comfort she could ever need, and just like that she broke down, tears running down her face.“I couldn't do it! Mom, I'm so sorry I couldn't do it…our company is going to go down and everything that you guys have ever worked hard for is just going to go down to drain like that!” She wailed.Esther and Dylan's eyes met over their daughter’s head.Esther took the lead. “Honey, you're going to have to start from the beginning. What happened to you you look terrible?’Katerina summoned the courage to look up and face her parents telling them the truth. “I lied to you guys, there's no investment, there's no broker or personnel that I'm wor

Initially, Dylan had planned to live with Tyler alone thinking his pride was better but when a day passed and their stocks plummeted even further the the assurance of bankruptcy looming was too much to ignore so he did the only thing he could The next day he reached out to all his family members, about 10 of them begging them to come with him to meet someone important. After all that had transpired between them and Tyler, Dylan had a good feeling that if he went alone, Tyler might have thrown him out of the room but if he went with a couple of people then he might be more inclined to listen.Of course, Dylan never told anybody that they were going to meet Taylor Redwood, he only said the person was influential and had the ability to help them out of their current financial troubles. Even Elizabeth came along with them to secure her family's fortune.No one knew that we were going to visit Kyla not even his wife which was why he considers it a little bit ironic that she was dressing

“You say you want my help right?”“Of course we do, Katerina says that you're really good with companies and helping people out of issues and I feel like we can help you out of ours.”Tyler had a dim smile on his face and he just kept looking at them a couple of months ago they hated his guts because he was too poor to marry their daughter even though he helped treat her so she could be the real version of herself but now there were swarming his office like a pack of rats, eager to get scrapes from where they could.“Why should I help you?’ he wondered. “The last time I remember you practically insulted me and drew me out of your house, so give me one good reason why I shouldn't extend the same courtesy to you.”Elizabeth stepped forward. “Acting as the matriarch of the family, I think if you're mad at anybody here, I believe you should be mad at me the most because of how I treated you and you don't have to listen to anything we have to say but I believe that you loved my granddaught
The Return of Tyler Redwood Chapter 79
When Elizabeth fell to the floor at first, nobody moved or even twitched; it was almost like they didn't know what to do.Tyler was the first person to move and that prompted everybody else to follow suit as they started dealing and shouting over each other, “Oh, my God, what should we do?” Someone yelled.“Do you think she's dead?”“ I don't think she is, maybe she has a pulse. Would you check her pulse ?”“Can somebody help me get her into the room? I think we need to elevate her.’“A hospital! We need a hospital!”“Quiet!” Dylan roared, instantly shutting everybody up. “Somebody help me get her into the car, we need to get her to the hospital and we need to do it fast!”Dylan was a pretty good leader because he expertly commanded everybody and they managed to get Elizabeth's limp body into the car, zooming off.It happened so fast that one minute they were here and the next they were gone.Tyler stood a couple of feet apart watching them do their thing while he tried to tamp down

It was clear that he was not welcome here so he decided to take his leave but on his way out he saw two familiar faces that for some reason made him very uncomfortable seeing them together. It was Katarina's cousin and Mark Kincaid, whispering in secret corners together.Something at the base of his god's mingled at him and he couldn't help but find out what they were doing together Changing directions, he was also glancing back to make sure that Katerina was not behind him he went forward it was a bit ironical that two lovebirds who could not keep their hands of themselves now I turned enemies and strangers I mean ever since he knew about her families involvement in his family's mother he always knew that something was going to fundamentally changed when the truth came out and now, he had his answer.Mark and Liam entered a supply closet, looking around them suspiciously before they went in. Pretending to be an orderly, Tyler grabbed a clipboard and a barrel heading towards the sup
The Return of Tyler Redwood Chapter 81
For the longest time Tyler didn't know what to do he was stuck between confronting Esther or leaving just like Katerina told him to do but….When he wanted to head towards the ICU, he spotted the crowd outside Elizabeth's old room with everyone gathered, their faces somber, he thought against it, deciding that he couldn't do it.Already, they were going through a lot, the last thing he wanted to do was come off as the bad guy adding more on their plates so he decided to postpone it. Spinning on his heel, he took another route and went back into his car.Katerina looked up when she saw Tyler leaving, looking away from him sadness blooming in her heart before she focused on her parents, trying to offer them comfort in the only way she could.It was silly, but she thought that he was here to beg her or ask her for her forgiveness or at the least…comfort her but he just left.Granted, she did tell him to leave but she just thought he would have tried harder to fight for her.For them.Acco

EPILOGUE Katerina's plan worked perfectly.Bianca fell into the trap and spun for her by pulling out the gun.Luckily for Katerina, her SOS signal went out in time and the cops showed up in time. Katerina was able to wrestle the gun away from Bianca, throwing in a punch.The police raided the house and as expected, they found some of the things they planted. Of course, Bianca firmly refused to accept that they were there, stating that Katerina planted it.Of course, the idea was disputed since the cameras had her stationed with Bianca the entire time.Mark took the fall as unsurprisingly his parents threw him under the bus to save their skin.Thanks to Katerina, Tyler's family massacre case was reopened and they were able to place the crimes on Mark and his family. Mark served time for abduction, kidnapping, and intent to murder, along with his fraudulent crimes.Giorgio got to bow out from the whole crime rivalry gang since the crimes committed by Mark and his family were now out in

“So I'm going to go inside and distract them, making sure their fingerprints touch some of the gadgets stuff while you guys go around and plant these things in their houses, okay?” Katerina went over the plan one more time to be sure that everyone understood.She picked Heinze and another guy called Jake to spearhead the mission, making sure plants were in places that the cops could easily access but weren't too obvious either.Once they all understood their parts of the plan she grabbed a gun, tucking it at the back of her Jean, firmly clipping it on the waistband of her pants.There's no way she's heading in there without protecting herself. “Once I give the signal, I want you to call the cops, okay?” She instructed one of the men that were staying behind, about to walk away.“Katerina, can I talk to you?” Giorgio called out just as she was about to leave. She paused. “We don't have enough time for that.”“Just a minute.” He insists and she walks over to him. “I'm really proud of

Mason and Katerina sat down in the doctor's office, anxiously waiting for a news report on Tyler.Mason himself was a nervous wreck, his left foot tapping incessantly against the floor. He kept glancing at the door waiting for the doctor to show up.The surgery they performed on him took over 10 hours, so much so that Mason had to give up on waiting around and head home.A day later, they were back here awaiting reports from the doctor. Katerina couldn't help for but feel anxious but it wasn't only because of Tyler's issue. After Giorgio agreed to her insane plan, they started working towards it. Since they only had a small window before Mark's case was taken to court, they had to work twice as hard as they needed to.Now that she was in on the plan, Giorgio revealed how he systematically arranged for Tyler's parents to get killed and anytime she thought about it, it made her want to puke.This small reveal only showed her how sick and demented she would get to lead a crime mob lik

Giorgio's eyes widened the moment those words escaped her lips. “Wait, what?”“Let me do it. The other time in the restaurant, you asked me to take over from you….” She squared her shoulders. “So I'll do it. If taking over from you is the only way to stop this nightmare from reoccurring, fine, I'm in.”“Katerina, no I can't ask you to do that.” He sighed.“I don't understand what's changed, less than 2 weeks ago clamping from me to take over from you.”“Well, I was too desperate to find someone to fill in my shoes so I could take a break but now I'm realizing that you may not be the best person to be to do that. You're not equipped enough.” He explained.“Okay then, why don't you teach me?” She wasn't willing to take no for an answer.“You're still not getting it!” Giorgio grunted. “This isn't something that can be taught, you have to spend years on the job before taking over. You have to be cold and calculated to do what is wrong without flinching and you're not there yet, Katerina.”

Katerina barged into the mansion that Giorgio and his men were hiding in, pulling the bulk of his men's attention towards her.Alarmed by the sight of a stranger, they raised their weapons aiming it at her.However, Katerina was too pissed off to let it go. “Get me your boss, he and I have some business to talk about.” She ordered, daring to speak despite over a dozen guns being focused on her chest. “Well?” She arched a brow after a couple of minutes passed and nobody moved.Fearless, she took a step further. “If you guys want to bury a bullet in me, then I suggest you start or else…I'll need you to bring me to Giorgio.”She was about to do something crazy to get their attention when the person to whom she spoke stepped out. “Katerina…” he rumbled.For some reason, he wasn't so surprised to see her here. Her face was set in a grim stance. “Can we talk?”With one look in their direction, Giorgio casually ordered them to pull down their rifle and then he tilted his head to the side, i

“Holy shit, what happened!” Katarina exclaimed, scrambling up to her feet.Esther was crouched over Dylan whose eyes were closed as if he was asleep, a large bullet wound on his chest.She gasped, standing frozen in the middle of the yard.Which reminded her…Katerina spun around in a slow circle, taking in the destruction that those guys had caused.All around them was chaos. The moving truck which contained her clothes and some furniture had toppled over to the side and the back door was riddled with bullet holes.Some of the movers were hit during the shootout and their colleagues were trying to help them stem the flow of blood pouring out from the affected areas.“Katerina, I need your help!” Mom yelled, trying but failing to make a pitiful attempt at CPR.Her mind snapped back to reality reminding her that she needed to help Dad.“Come on, we need to get him inside?” She urged.Mom's head rose up, her gaze slightly disoriented. “What do you mean?”“In case those guys come back, w

“I think you need to move it in this direction. No, stop! That cannot go in there…what are you doing?”The cacophony of voices bounced around in Katerina's head pulling her out of her slumber.With a groan, she placed the back of her palms against her forehead, trying to shut out the noise but apparently, her window had been left open.Slightly grumpy for being abruptly woken up, Katerina flung back the covers, angrily marching towards the window to shut it when a movement from the corner of her eyes caught her attention.It seemed like there was a loading truck pushing in items and… Was that her luggage?She squinted to make out the design of the bag and to her shock, it was the bag she'd gotten on vacation with Tyler last year.How did…A thought flashed into her mind and she quickly scrambled towards her walk-in closet.Her room back at the house was like a mini-mansion. Two huge rooms split into her bedroom and her walk-in closet connected by an adjoining door which made it easy

“First of all no one is shipping me anywhere and what the hell are you guys even talking about?” Katerina walked into the room, watching their faces light up like they knew they'd done some wrong. “Is anyone going to answer me?”Dylan stepped forward, his hands stretched in front of him in an effort to placate her. “Honey, listen I don't want you to take this in some way but your mother and I have been talking-”“You mean to say ‘discussing’ we haven't finalized on it yet.” Esther interrupted, sliding a side eye to Dylan.“Whatever.” He waved it off. “what I meant to say is that we've been thinking about you and your general well-being and uh… some things that have given us concerns.”“Concerns like what?” Katerina asked, folding her hands over her chest.Esther and Dylan exchanged a glance, something meaningful passing through them. Dylan spoke up first. “I think with everything that is going on… you've been going through a lot of things for the past couple of months and for everyone

In a coma…Those words kept ringing in Katerina's ears as she stared up at the ceiling, mentally counting the tiles on each row.After that, she'd move to the next row and repeat the process all over again until she was tired.Anything to keep my head off suicidal thoughts or worse…. reliving both of Tyler's traumatic accidents.Mason had yet to discover fully from the shock, having staggered out of the room. When Katerina stopped him to ask, he simply mumbled that he was heading out in search of fresh air but she knew it was a lie.Just like her, he couldn't spend another moment stuck in a never-ending nightmare.Unable to stop torturing herself, Katerina replayed the doctor's words again in her head, picturing the exact moment when it sank in.“I'm sorry, we tried our possible best but sadly, it wasn't enough. He went into cardiac arrest and then anaphylactic shock, leaving us with only one option… we had to induce him into a coma.” The doctor's voice was devoid of emotion but I gu
