Thomas PovSitting on my desk in front of my laptop,the tapping sound of the laptop keyboard was the only sound that filled my room.I looked over what I had written down on a notebook beside my laptop and the words on the screen of the laptop and I nodded in approval.It was correct.I didn't need to make any mistakes as I don't use the laptop I used to work from home to go out even to my office. It has a lot of information I don't want to get out and I don't know why I can't get myself to trust anyone completely after what Natalia did to me.I took my pen and wrote a contact down on my notebook.I need to call this number later and get the information I need.Beep!Beep!The alarm on my desk beside my laptop went off and I taped on top of it and it turned off.It was 5 am already.I sighed deeply as I turned my neck round in a circular motion to loosen its stiffness, I rubbed the back of my neck and sighed.I have been doing research since 3 am. I got most of the information I nee
Thomas Pov A small frown formed on my face at his words."You want me to invest in your company?" I asked curiously."No, I want you to return back to my company." He corrected me and I scoffed."You want me to leave my own company and return to your company or you want us to work together?" I questioned since I wanted to be sure I heard him right."I want you to return to my own company." He confirmed what he said and I could only stare at him in disbelief that such ridiculous words left his mouth." If both our company's merge together and have the name of my company ,it will be better that way, don't you think so?" Gabriel asked and I scoffed and couldn't help the laugh that broke out from my mouth.I slapped my hand on the armrest of the couch as I laughed, I tried to stop laughing but one glance at his face that looked serious made me burst out laughing again.He must be joking.He has to be.I don't know how senseless people can be him asking me to give up my own company and go
Natalia's POVI thought I was a step closer to getting Thomas back home but when I got to Thomas's office and saw Dad there I felt the blood drain from my face.I knew that dad said he wanted to meet Thomas as soon as possible but I didn't think he would come the next day.He never said anything to me about coming here today.I thought that I could come here today so I could buy myself a little time to figure things out and apologize to Thomas but all my plans went down the drain.Dad slapped me across the face immediately he saw me and I was shocked.Thomas' security refused to let me see him even though I had an appointment with him and Dad dragged me out of Thomas's company building.I was still in shock from seeing Dad here and I was pleading for him to let me go.Dad didn't care about any explanation I wanted to give as I was practically dragged into his car and the driver drove us back home as Dad continued berating me in the car and calling me an ungrateful child for humiliatin
Thomas POV;For the fourth time this week I have rejected an appointment with Mr. Gabriel.He has nothing to offer me yet he is telling me to come to work in his company. What type of sick joke was that?Natalia had also tried to set up an appointment but she was rejected,she even went as far as dropping a message for me which I didn't bother listening to.All her words were now trash in my ears.I don't know how Mr Gabriel did it but he got a hold of my new personal number."Thomas I am sincerely sorry for any pain we caused you but you should see things from my own point of view. I was not aware of Natalia's deceitful lies." Mr. Gabriel said feigning innocence.Even though he wasn't aware of Natalia's he insulted me every chance he got."Have you forgotten what I told you when I left your house?" I asked."I told you that I will make you regret what you did to me and there's no way that I will come back to that house or work for you!" I snarled at him"You can gain from my company,
Natalia POV;I was living in fear in my own house.Fear of the unknown and fear of tomorrow.Even though I begged my parents numerous times not to abandon me because of my actions. They are already making arrangements for me to go to stay with my grandparents even though I went on a hunger strike for four days to prove I would rather hurt myself than leave this house.Even though I snuck out of my room to eat at night for the four days I went on a hunger strike I didn't eat for the whole day and only survived on snacks.I was getting really tired from not eating properly.But Dad or Mom didn't care at all about what I did.They did not care for my feelings anymore and my mother was acting as if I did not exist.My older brother Logan was who my parents were focusing on now since I proved to be useless to them.Whenever dad sees me downstairs he would scream at me to get out of his sight and ask me to get out of his house and the next thing I will do is run upstairs to my room , lock
Thomas POV:I got back from work thirty minutes ago . I left early today at about 3 pm and was at home relaxing with a bowl of popcorn and watching a movie in the living room since it's the weekend tomorrow and I didn't have to go to work.I deserve the break because this past week has been hectic.In the movie I was watching there was a maid cooking and I suddenly craved a home cooked meal.I can cook but it was just small meals not meals that were tasty.I will give my cooking a 70% because I do try my best when preparing my meal.I suddenly remembered Grace and I wondered why I always thought about her when I was craving home cooked meals.I glanced at the phone beside me and contemplated calling her but it would be weird I didn't call for this long and just called because I suddenly remembered her cooking.I felt a bit bad but I was busy with work, Grace would understand if anything she was the most understanding person I have ever met.Even though I was giving her bosses some tr
Natalia's POVI lay miserably on my hospital bed thinking about how unfair life is being to me.No one in my family called to check up on me after I came to the hospital and no one even bothered to ask how I was.I was already devastated and heartbroken because I didn't know what to do about Barke. I don't know why he will treat me this way after everything I have done for him.He told me he loved me but now he is telling me I was just an entertainment for me.Me Natalia was just fun entertainment to him?I clenched my fist in anger as I shook my head, finding it hard to believe that I would lose my child and my lover the same day the two people I held dearly to my heart.But damn the nerve that Barke has, how could he backstab me ,I mean who does that after all the money I have given him.I thought that I was protecting him by not revealing he was the Father of my child to my Father, but instead of him doing the same for me by protecting me and being my safety nest when I needed him
Natalia's POV The tension in my room was evident and I think I held my breath longer than I should because I suddenly felt sweaty and stuffy in my air conditioned room. Dad wasn't that cruel that you would want to kick me out after I just lost my child. I was still his child no matter what I did, I was curious as to what Dad wanted to say. Dad barely ever came into my room to discuss anything with me so I know this is important. "W..what do we have to discuss?" I asked, finally finding my voice as Dad walked fully into my room, each step he took towards my bed made me nervous and finally he sat on my bed close to me. "Are you feeling better now?" Dad asked and I nodded and forced out a small smile. Even though I was feeling as if I have been dragged out of a dark tunnel I should reply positively so he can let me stay at home. "Yes I am." I replied. "Did you have any complications after the miscarriage?" He asked and I seemed to calm down a bit since he was just inquiring abo
