"Our very own Barbie doll."

Selena smiled as she gracefully walked into Sammy's open arms.

Sammy was her new manager and he always made it a point of duty to show up before anyone else. Unfortunately, Rebecca was the opposite of that, and so when she came in, everyone was already waiting to discuss before moving on to the main event of the day.

Their fashion show, and Selena even had a line featuring in it.

"Hi guys, how's everything going?" Selena asked casually before taking a seat.

"Good to see that you could join us, Selena, I'd ask you to sit at the back, but then you would put me out of business." One of the directors said in a joking, but not joking manner.

"Okay Evelyn, do what you must." Selena said and took her seat.

"So now, is there anyone missing?" Evelyn asked and there was no answer. "No one?"

"Evelyn, no one is missing, I was the last to come in, and nobody is coming in after that." Selena rolled her eyes.

"Well, I suppose you're right, nobod

    Taron was getting ready to leave as he was supposed to be in a meeting very soon. And he had guests arriving later in the evening. Rebecca was at her place and she was probably waiting for him to come out and meet her to pick her up. Taron was feeling great. His life was moving on extremely well, and although, he had not found Javier yet, all other parts of his life was moving on properly. His relationship with Rebecca was giving all kinds of good vibes, work was going on perfectly, and all the companies under his name were thriving. One of them even won in a court disruption recently, and that of course meant more money. His relationship with his mom had improved more than he had ever expected it to, and his step father and step siblings all seemed to be doing well, and that included his baby sister. He wore his shoes, feeling extremely good about how the day was going to turn out and even said a few words to Jonas. "Jonas, don't you think that it is about time that you take

    “Hey, hey, hey!” Javier said, sitting up. Selena rolled off of him, confused as to what was happening. “What is it?” She asked. “Did you see a spider or a snake?” “No, but what are we doing? What is going on here?” Javier asked and Selena fought the urge to face palm herself as this man was extremely stupid. “What is going on here? I just drove you back from my show and we were together— look, if you don’t want to do this, then it’s fine, I’ll leave.” Selena got up and Javier held her arm. “No, that’s not what I meant, I was just trying to make sure that we were both on the same side before doing anything, don’t want you to do something that you might regret, that’s all.” Javier said and pulled her back down. “Then you say that next time, don’t try to come and act all cryptic, because I will leave the moment something seems unclear to me.” Selena stated sternly and Javier nodded. “Forgive me.” Javier said, but Selena was already working her hands down his neck be

    Taron had been in a bad mood for days. He knew that he had not done anything wrong by defending his girlfriend in front of those men, but he felt terrible that he might have lost every possible alliance that he could have with them, and he wanted to be on the sides of as many people as possible, for the sake of his company, of course. But his pride would not let him attempt to contact those men ever again. Not unless they attempted to contact him first. Rebecca was tired of how horribly Taron was hiding his annoyance. Two days had already gone by, and once in a while, his nose would get scrunched up, and she would know exactly what exactly it was that was bugging him. She was on her break anyway, and she picked up one of the magazines that came in and opened it without looking at the cover when she had the feeling that she had missed something that she should have seen. Rebecca turned to look at the front cover and looked on her table to see the next magazine that she was to go t

    “Miss Goldbridge, it’s so wonderful to have you here with us today.” The pencil face Dolly who anchored the daily news said, turning to Selena. Selena was already tired of this obnoxious strange looking lady as she had been waiting for her interview for a long time, and this lady had just been talking about things that did not in any way, concern her, or were related to her. Hello! She had other things to do besides talk in front of the camera for a long time. Well, five minutes was a long time in Selena’s opinion, and her interview was supposed to be somewhere in between five and ten minutes, go figure. “Ah yes, it is lovely to be here.” Selena responded. “So, I am going to ask you the question that everyone is asking, what happened to you?” Dolly said and Selena looked at her in kick confusion. “Excuse me?” “Yes,” Dolly continued. “we witnessed what was supposed to be your burial, and we had people here mourning you for a good while, and suddenly, you’re back loo

    Times like this made Taron's head ache. He could see that there was something coming— or he could feel it, rather, but he didn't know what it was. Why had Selena not called him? "You have to see this!" Rebecca ran over to him with her tablet in her hand to show him something. "What is that?" Taron asked. "It's the news, look who's on it." Rebecca said and Taron looked in it. "It's not like I'm surprised." Taron shrugged and Rebecca looked at him. "What? She faked her death and now she's back, questions will be asked." Taron said. "Dolly is asking questions, watch, watch!" "And suddenly you're her fan girl." Taron said dryly. "I'm not! Just shut your mouth and see what is going on!" Rebecca hissed and plopped herself right next to Taron. "There is footage of you professing your love for him while he let you go for—" Selena cut Dolly in as she was speaking. "That's my personal business, but yes, there is no love between us, I've not even seen him since

    Taron was alone in his house when he heard the bell ring and one of his house servants came in to notify him of a visitor. “Sir, there’s someone here to see you.” She said. Taron suddenly got a headache. All the help knew that they were to let in Rebecca, his mom, and Anthony immediately they came, as he rarely received any visitors a his house. Taron hoped he was wrong, but he already had an idea of who was here to see him. “Who?” “A woman outside, sir, she says she’s Selena Goldbridge.” The help said and Taron sighed. “Let her in and let the security to let other security know that she is not allowed to step foot into this place ever again.” Taron said, and the help nodded before scrambling outside. Taron took in deep breaths to get ready for the stressful conversation that they were supposed to have. It would have been better if Selena was nothing more than the stereotypical dumb blonde, but she was extremely manipulating, and she was extremely smart too. “T

    "I almost can't believe that she had the audacity to come to the office and say all that to you." Taron said. "I don't like her, Taron, that woman is a very bad person." "So we've come to know, and what exactly does she want from us? Do you know?" Taron asked, and Rebecca responded with a shrug. "I'll be damned if I knew that," Rebecca sighed. "she just came in here, ranting about her plans to make things terrible for us, and then I had the security throw her out." "I like you." Taron nodded, looking up from the sheets he was filling in and smiling in approval. "What did she tell you?" Rebecca asked. "Basically the same thing she told you, and I asked her if she had no shame running around me for years." Taron stated. "Do you get? It's a very unhealthy obsession, if she had not proven to be a real nuisance to us, I would have almost felt sorry for her." Rebecca shook her head. "Not me, she cheated on me, remember? I don't feel sorry for her." Taron sat up

    Taron, was once again taking a public stand to talk about what had occurred between him and Selena, since Selena had talked about opening a case to accuse Rebecca and the company of assault. She wanted to sue them. “Is this mic working?” Taron asked jokingly and the audience laughed. “Best in public speaking.” Rebecca giggled from behind the curtains. “Good morning, everyone,” Taron began, looking around. “I’m sure most of us know the reason we are gathered here, and for those who do not know, we are gathered here on the case of false accusation.” There was a murmur in the audience and Tarim continued. “This might look like a very small problem, but this is a grave thing to do, as not only does it affect my reputation, but that of my secretary, and the business too, so I have to take it seriously, or else it could end badly for me.” Taron explained. “Miss Selena Goldbridge came into my house last week, and started talking about how she was going to do so many terribl

    It had been months since the awful incidents had happened, and Selena, Javier, and all the other offenders were still locked up because of the multitude of crimes they had committed against other people, like Taron and Rebecca, and somehow, some missing funds were traced to Rebecca's account, so she had problems with the entire country too. That, and her faking her death was a major offence because it was a popular tactic pulled by fraudsters, and so, Selena was to spend a long time locked up. Rebecca, on the other hand, was doing so much better. She was starting to move during the second week of her awaking, and Taron was so proud of the progress that she was making in her life, and how she was able to forge ahead. "I can't imagine that our lives were troubled by that nasty woman, how did you even manage to end up with her, you crazy man?" Rebecca teased him, and he rolled his eyes "I was a complete idiot, I don't even have anything to say to defend myself." Taron said, sha

    It was the main day for the attack. Selena and her killers were heading out to attack. The strategy she had made was full proof to her but she had no idea there was an inside man and her plans had been leaked. Anthony and Taron discussed on the news Radish gave the earlier. They have decided to let the cops know about the act and Selena should be at least arrested if not killed. “Hello! Joe Radish when is it starting?” Taron asked Joe over the phone. “Okay, thank you. I owe you, literally.” Taron joked as he cut the call. “I am leaving Rebecca in your care, and I believe she will be safer here than anywhere else.” Taron stroked Rebecca's hair and gave her a kiss before he exited the mafia house. Taron had informed his security officers earlier about the event, so he put them in strategic places that would give them the advantage. He also called the police to fight with him, he paid a lot of money for that. Taron got to his house. He kept a gun with him and kept two se

    The smell of antiseptic filled the room. “Where am I?” Rebecca who had been in a coma finally opened her eyes, she gradually came to her senses. The thick smell of the sterilized air, the sound of beeping, the unfamiliar and white wall made her confirm where she was. “I'm at the hospital.” She said after confirming where she was. “Taron!” She screamed out remembering what had happened. “I have to get out here.” She stated trying to move but was too weak to do so, frustrated by how weak she was, she felt both frustrated and afraid, and she attempted to struggle to move once more, but was unable to. The assistant came in and saw her struggling and yelled. “Do not do that, Miss Moore!” She forced Rebecca to lie back down to the back and used the blanket to cover her. “Who are you?” Rebecca asked confused, as she was not wearing a nurse uniform. “I'm Anaise, one of the assistants under the mafia doctor.” She smiled as the added something into the drip.

  • CHAPTER 191

    Selena was setting up an elaborate plan. She made it her personal mission to attack Taron, not him in particular. She wanted to inflict pain on him or so I thought. “So, I have been with Taron and I know every nook and crazy of the house, within the next few weeks, we will be planning an elaborate attack on Taron.” Selena said, moving across the room in a most dramatic manner. She hired a group of men to attack the house. Amongst the men was Joe radish, he was Anthony and Taron's man on the inside, and nobody knew about him just yet. - Taron was at the mafia house still feeling down about now seeing Rebecca when she was awake. “Why are you guys laying around doing nothing? You work, you get paid, no one paying you to stand around and do nothing.” Taron yelled at the employees. He knew was being hard, but he did not like being moody, he did not want to be like those bosses like all the ones who just yelled at employees based on personal matters. “Taron, son, yo

    Taron was too busy, as there was a lot of workload on his head for him to do when the phone call came in. "Taron?" It was Anthony. "Yes, Anthony? What happened?" Taron asked, suddenly worried. "It's good news, actually, you have to know that Rebecca is awake." Anthony said and Taron's heart stopped. He was not sure that he had heard correctly, so he got to his feet slowly. "What are you talking about?" Taron asked. "Rebecca, she is currently awake and she is talking to your mother currently." Anthony said, and Taron was silent for a few seconds before he got very excited. "I'm on my way!" Taron said and cut the call. "Julian!" Taron's current secretary started to knock at the door when he heard his name, and all Taron could wonder was the kind of idiot that he had hired as he secretary. "Come in, Julian! You only have to knock twice and open up when I call you in myself!" Taron yelled and the door opened, and Julian practically flew into the office. "What is

    Selena was pacing around as she waited for them to arrive. She had had this nagging feeling for a good, long while now, and now she was sure of it! Taron was playing mind games with her, just as she had been doing with him. "Excuse me? Why did you text like that? I was startled!" Sarah said, looking at Sarah in disbelief as she came inside the house. "It was urgent!" Selena sighed. "You're the first to arrive, I'm waiting for the rest, champagne?" "What do you mean by that? Who else is coming? And next time something is urgent and other people are coming, let me know so that I can prepare!" Sarah yelled. "But you look good already." Selena rolled her eyes. "I can look better." Sarah whined and went to find a spot to sit. "Would you at least tell me why you did this? Why you suddenly called people in here?" Sarah asked. "I'm your best friend, and you're still going to tell everyone eventually!" Selena sighed. She was tired of keeping it to herself anyway. "Wel

    Everything is too quiet, Taron thought as he got up. “Everything is to quiet!” He said, and his voice bounced off his walls, filling him with some kind of eerie sensation. Taron wondered why the day felt so strange, but then he remembered that it was the third day, and he got to see Rebecca come out today. “Jonas!” Taron yelled with a smile on his face. Jonas was back from his vacation, and he was not happy with how things had gone, but he was feeling extremely refreshed from his trip. If only he was around, nothing would have happened to Rebecca, because he would have been in the same car as her, and even if she drove, he would have thrown himself at her immediately, even if it cost him his life. He owed these people that much. “Going to see Miss Moore, sir?” Jonas asked, and Taron grinned excitedly at him. “You know it!” Taron said happily. “Oh Jonah, I wish I had three of you, one for me as my personal companion asides my girl, one for my mother, and one for my gi

  • CHAPTER 187

    Taron got out of his seat, tired of all the terrible things that had been happening— not that Rebecca getting out of there on time before anything could happen was a terrible thing, but the fact that he could not do anything about it. ‘It’, being the fact that he could not go to Rebecca just yet. All that he could hope was that she would get up from the bed sooner, rather than later. “And now, I have to deal with idiots all around me.” Taron muttered and got up, realizing that maybe it was the office that was making him have such a terrible attitude. People did not want to deal with that! He didn’t even like dealing with himself in this mood, and Taron remembered that he had made the decision to be a wonderful boss. Snapping at anyone who asked about Rebecca, biting his employees heads off for the smallest, excusable things? When did he turn to this? Taron knew that he was not exactly to blame, but the people working under him did not know that, or about anything that was go

    Selena’s heart was beating faster than usual when she got to her car. She face palmed herself. Of course Taron would have asked about Rebecca, why did she have to let herself panic like that? Now she made herself look guilty. “Stupid Taron McCarthy!” She groaned. Taron had invited her to lunch, and she thought that maybe he would want to compromise by making Javier’s share a little bigger, and she like reject her offer and happily step on his face before leaving, but none of that happened. Instead, he was having fun poking at her verbally and watching her squirm. Even took her food away from her when she was only halfway done with it. If only she had not accepted his invite in the first place, Selena thought. Sarah would think that she was a fool and make a lot of noise about the mighty falling and everything. But it had to be a good thing, right? Selena could not take her mind off the fact that since Taron had called her to tell ask her about Rebecca’s whereabouts, then
