“We are going big very soon, baby!” Steve exclaimed and turned to look at Selena with a big grin on his face. Selena wasn’t in the mood for any of his antics, not especially after their episode. It did not help matters that her head felt like it was filled with dust and she could not think straight. “I don’t think it’s possible for us to grow any more than this, Steve.” Selena tried rolling her eyes, but failed at it. “I meant financially and everything, you wouldn’t believe who is helping me out with my new social media movement.” Steve looked excited, Selena noticed that and started to get excited too. Whenever Steve got that excited, it could only mean that he had gotten more money, or that there was a pretty girl waiting on him to get laid. “Money?” Selena shot out of bed, wincing slightly. “Very soon, babe.” Steve said, sounding like he was making a promise. Selena was able to crack a smile and Steve leaned in to kiss her before going on the phone. “Brody? Yes, you h

    “Bitch!” A woman yelled and Selena started dripping liquid from the cup of noodles that was thrown all over her. Ugh! If she had seen who had thrown it, she could have sued the lady. Selena thought as she looked for the nearest bathroom with embarrassment crawling over her beautiful person. Why was she suddenly getting dragged once again? She wondered. She had not met with Taron for weeks now, and the people who had mocked her for going after Taron so desperately had stopped eventually. But then it seemed that they had decided to rise again, but why? When she woke up a few days ago, she was tagged to hate tweets on the social media platform and read articles on her, and even saw people giving her hot takes. Again, not every publicity is good publicity. If things went on like this, no one would want to work with her, and she was Selena Goldbridge, best of the best. Until all this happened, though. “You know, I’d raise my girls to never be so desperate, or hungry for people who

    "Fuck you, you cheating bitch!" Steve yelled. His temper tantrums were becoming more and more common since his father left him out of the company. "Why the fuck do I even tell you things? Don't ever call me that again!" Selena screamed back. "What, bitch? I bet if Taron called you a bitch, you wouldn't mind, you'd go down on your knees and say, yes daddy." Steve mocked her pitch and continued. "Shut up, you broke man! You're the reason we're living like this, haven't I suffered enough? Where's the plan you've been talking about since, where's the result?" "How dare you?" Steve lunged towards Selena, grabbed her and gave her a big slap to the face. "How dare you?" Selena slapped him back and they started pulling each other and dragging their hair. "Fuck you," Selena spat and moved away from him. "I can't believe I had something with someone like you." "It was just the money, Selena, that's all you wanted; you can't lie to yourself like that." Steve sang. "Steve Garr

    His phone started to ring and he picked it up with a frown. “Rob, I’ve told you not to contact me, I’ll call you myself.” He sounded annoyed. “I know, but I’m witnessing a fight between Miss Goldbridge and Garrick, and I feel like I shouldn’t be doing this, plus, this is taking a lot out of my work time.” Rob said to the man. “I’m very sure that I’m paying you more than enough to do this, you’re not allowed to complain, and didn’t you hire more workers?” “Fine.” Rob sighed and the man cut the call immediately. He started to go through Taron’s social media. It had been a while since he went through it, and he felt stupid for not doing it sooner. Watching someone online helps too. “Wow.” He clicked his tongue as he noticed that Taron had taken down all the pictures of him with Selena on all his social media platforms. “He eventually realised that he had to do that, then.” The man chuckled and arranged the papers in front of him before picking up what had arrived in the ma

    Taron was in a meeting with one of the heads of his Chinese partner companies when his phone vibrated. Wu Zhihao chuckled. "You should check that, it could be your lady." The man said, raising his brows and smiling suggestively. Taron looked at the man. He was one of the most cheerful people he had met. While wealthy people were mostly brooding to keep their face true to the facial stereotypes of people with a lot of money in their accounts, this man shook hands with everyone and laughed heartily whenever he heard something funny. Taron looked at Wu. "I don't have a partner, don’t plan to have anyone anytime soon either.” Regardless, Taron excused himself and took out his phone. It was an email from the KingPins, inviting him to a meeting, stating that it was very important for him to be present since it was going to be his first meeting. If Jonas was right, then he had to ignore the invitation or it would be his first and last meeting. Greedy rich people always loved setting

    James Garrick was nervous and it was obvious. He was aware of that, so he resented himself for wearing his emotions on his sleeve. He had come with a proposal for Taron, and if he did not look like he believed in what he wanted to say, how would he get Taron to believe in it? He fished out a white handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead. Taron sat, looking uninterested and disconnected from his surroundings. James Garrick had called without setting up an appointment, but luckily, Taron happened to be free enough to hold a short conversation with him. “Give me two minutes.” Taron said, typing away at his screen. James used that time to go over the words in his head. Taron was smart and would be able to fish out what he didn’t like very easily. “So,” Taron said, putting the papers in his hand down before looking at James Garrick. “how can I help you today?” “I’m here to ask for an increase.” James Garrick went straight to the point. “An increase, huh?” Taron did not

    Taron looked down at the big delicious bowl of sugar sweet goodness in front of him. For the first time since he started the entire billionaire thing, he was free. He had been able to clear all his schedules the day before and so, Taron decided to put every phone call he had away till the next day. He grinned down at his ice cream. Taron had earlier believed that being so wealthy would change him from the typical Taron to a different man. But Taron found out that he still loved his ice cream, and still could not tolerate black coffee. A little less cream and milk in a bid to protect the “culture”, that is. “Thank you.” Taron said to the guard who brought him his treat. The guard gave a small now and went to stand at his post. Taron’s phone beeped and he remembered the urgent reminders that he had set. He had three very important phone calls to make. Touching the scooped out balls of ice cream with the spoon, Taron figured that he could leave his treat for a short while. - “A bu

    Selena could barely contain her heart with how fast it was beating. She had just decided to board the first flight to Florida. She had been thinking about her father for way too long, and the superstitious part of her felt like she had reason to believe that her father was in grave danger, or perhaps, about to die. Selena blamed that side on her late mother. Although she did not believe in such tales, she was driven to the edge and had to go and see him. She had to know, know if the way he had treated her all those years were genuinely out of hatred for her on his part, or if he truly loved her and that was the only way he knew how to enforce discipline. But what would she tell him? Ethan Goldbridge had always been a driven man, and he was not moved by almost anything. She did not go to see him when she was at her peak, so why did she have to start feeling this way when she started to hit rock bottom? She alighted from the plane with the other passengers and ordered a ride home. She

    “Miss Goldbridge, how may I help you today?” The woman in front of Selena asked with a smile that looked like it had been perfected in front of a mirror asked. “Yes, are you Alyssa?” Selena asked. After the incident with her father, Selena had decided to respect herself and keep herself away from all that. She would live with or without him anyway, but now that he was out of the way, she had bigger fish to catch. Her ex boyfriend, Taron McCarthy. Obviously, she could not seduce her way into Taron’s life, so she had to act smarter. And Sarah had asked her to look for something that Taron lacked, with the exception of a partner and exploit that area to her full advantage. “Yes, I am Alyssa, please sit down.” Alyssa said and Selena took a seat. “I want you to keep an eye on someone for me, using three agents.” Selena said, bringing out a file from her purse. “Okay, ma’am, as long as your signature is here,” Alyssa pointed to the paper that she placed in front of Selena. “and a

    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.

    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

  • CHAPTER 186

    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
