“Why did you do that? I could have you arrested for it.” Javier glared at Selena, who just ignored him and kept her focus on the two cars leaving. She got up as they drove away, and Javier followed suit. “I don’t feel embarrassed at all, and what about the paparazzi? What if one of them get us out here and you’re in the news tomorrow, or maybe this evening?” Javier gasped, making attempts to annoy her. Selena ignored him. She wanted this to be some kind of apology lunch for Javier because of how she had yelled at him, and no matter what was going to happen, she couldn’t get all that money if Javier didn’t comply with what she had planned, so… “I have a lot of things going on in my head, so I would appreciate if you mind yourself.” Selena said and Javier looked at her as if he was confused. “What is it?” Selena asked him. “This thing that you’re wearing isn’t giving me the opportunity to hear you speak properly, you should remove it.” He pointed at her nose mask, and
“Where is that man?” Selena said with her face scrunched up as she went through the house with no sign of Javier hanging around. Javier came out of his room with a towel around his waist and hair dripping from his hair. Smelled good enough to eat too, if Selena had anything to say about it. “I thought you had snuck out again.” “Again? Why do you think I’ve snuck out before?” Javier asked, and Selena rolled her eyes in response. “He thinks I’m an idiot.” She said, turning back. Javier then craned his neck to see who Selena was talking to, and he saw a man seated in the living room. “Hi.” Javier said, and the man waved back. “Javier, this man is one of the best lawyers in our continent, and he’s going to be handling your case.” Selena said with a big smile on her face. “Yes, uh, why don’t we all sit down?” The man asked, and Selena and Javier went to sit down, and the lawyer looked at Javier like he had a lot of issues going on. “Hey, don’t look at me like tha
“What’s going on in there?” Someone asked and another person started to scream. “Help him out, someone is there, and he’s stuck!” A passerby screamed.- “We cannot keep talking about things like this while I’m on the road, Taron, and you know that I don’t make calls while I drive.” Rebecca rolled her eyes. “But you never want to talk about it when we are together.” “I actually wanted to talk to you about something when I get home, I have a surprise.” Rebecca said, her voice high pitched and all excited. “Just make sure that you—” “Oh no.” Rebecca whispered under her breath, but Taron could still hear the undertones of shock and fear. “Princess? What happened?” Taron asked before he heard the loud crash and sound of shattering glass. “Rebecca?” Taron asked as he got up from his office and rushed out of it.- Rebecca did not know what was real and what was not anymore. She could see hundreds of tiny dots dancing in her vision, and the airbag had hurt her
"Sir? Are you Taron McCarthy, here for Miss Rebecca Moore?" Taron looked up to see a tall woman with glasses and a very grim expression on her face. He stood up hastily, nodding. “Yes, I’m her husband, I’m sorry, I must have fallen asleep while waiting.” Taron said, wiping his hands on his pants. He didn’t like hospitals. “I was informed by one of the attendants that you were here for her so I had to confirm.” “Yes, that’s me.” “Alright, I’m going to assume that you are the person she is currently in a relationship with, correct?” The woman asked, and Taron nodded again, expecting the worst. “Well, I am Mrs Cooper, and I would appreciate it if you come in to see me in my office, there’s a very grave matter to discuss.” The doctor said and Taron’s blood ran cold. What was going to happen to Rebecca? “Please, if you would lead the way.” Taron said hastily and they made their way to the woman’s office. Taron had already tried to think about all the possible conseq
Taron had fallen into a helpless spiral, and he did not know what to do. With the exception of taking care of Rebecca, he did not do anything else. Sure, taking care of her was something in itself, especially as he gave her all her baths and made sure that everything that she ate was cooked by him. He could not work— could not bear to think about work. His heart was grieving, and his princess could not handle the situation that she was in. They had just lost their baby, and he could not imagine how it felt to her since she was the one who was carrying it before the dreadful incident. “Sir,” Jonas came into Taron’s study. Taron looked up. “sir, I was asking for permission to come in, but you didn’t reply, are you okay, sir?” Taron looked up at Jonas and nodded. “I’m sure you heard of the recent news.” “Yes, it’s a pity, my condolences, I’d let Miss Moore know about how sorry I am when she wakes up.” Jonas said and Taron nodded. “Actually, I was thinking, Jonas, I don’t wan
It had been days since Anthony had come to talk to Taron and gone, and Taron could not stop thinking things over. Rebecca, of course, was still the same, and Taron was thinking about taking her to therapy, because she was just out of everything. And then finding whomever it was that did this. The person ended up scarring Rebecca, giving her physical and emotional trauma, and all without revealing their identity. Taron swore to himself that he would punch whomever it was square in the face when he found out who it was, but for now, he had to just stay back and watch things unfold. “And when I find you, it would not be an easy thing to let you go, if I actually let you go, that is.” He mumbled. If Rebecca was okay, she would tease Taron of being on the verge of going crazy, but she wasn’t here to do that, was she? The poor, innocent woman. Taron was not sure when he drifted off to sleep on his table, but he had a very rude awakening from his phone, as whoever it was kept on cal
Selena had received feedback of what she had planned out, and things did not go quite as she thought it would. "Did you know that she was pregnant?" Javier asked, looking angrier than she had ever seen him before. "No! If I knew that, then I would not have gone ahead with this!" "Oh really? When you said that you were going to put things in place, I did not know that you meant crashing an innocent woman!" Javier yelled at her and Selena faced him abruptly. "Do not raise your voice at me, this is the perfect moment, Taron would be weak for the next couple of months and easy to take over." Selena nodded and Javier looked at her, wondering just how crazy she was. "You killed a child! You almost killed the mother, it's a miracle that she survived it, and all of this because of money that we might not even get to have?" Javier asked her, pulling at his hair. "Calm down, she's still alive, and it's not like the child had been born yet, so it might have just been a coinc
“Rebecca, I need to talk to you.” Taron pulled Rebecca up to sit down. She was scrolling mindlessly through the channels. “I’m all ears.” Rebecca said, her voice uninterested. “I think that your accident might not have been an accident at all.” Taron said, and Rebecca looked at him wildly, like he was mad. “What do you mean?” Rebecca asked, and Taron sighed before bringing the letter out of his pocket. “What is this? Who is this person?” Rebecca asked. “I don’t know, it was delivered through a company, and my men are still trying to trace it.” Taron said and Rebecca started to cry. “The person thought that they could kill me, but they ended up killing my baby instead, and killing me on the inside, mission successful indeed.” Rebecca got out of bed and went straight into the bathroom, and soon, Taron heard the sound of running water. He had removed all the sharp objects from there, so he was not that worried, but he was definitely surprised when Rebecca came out a
