Hayden's POVI tucked Sarah into bed, and waited a bit till she fell asleep. I still couldn't believe I had been asleep the entire time she was going through hell.I had woken up the next morning to receive a call from Ray about Sarah.I slowly and quietly walked out of the room, heading outside the mansion. My phone began ringing, and I immediately brought it out from my pocket. It was Ray calling."Did you find out anything?" I questioned on the phone."No, nothing suspicious for now. Checked all the CCTV footage, and there was absolutely no one there.""That's not possible, Ray. Someone out there is trying to hurt Sarah, and I know it. Check the names of all workers in the company the day of the accident, and if there's anyone suspicious, tell me immediately.""Do you think it could have been that bastard?" Ray questioned."I don't think he had the guts to do such a thing.. It's someone who knows a lot about Sarah as well.""Alright, I'll look into the situation some more and call
Hayden's POV"Check on my wife, if anything goes wrong, inform me immediately." I instructed Kira, while picking up my car keys from the table.She nodded her head, and then I turned and walked out of the room. I had been watching Sarah for a while now, and I was glad she was slowly responding to treatment.The doctor said she's still in a lot of shock, but all that would disappear in a couple of days.Once I got into my car, I ignited the engine and zoomed out of the mansion. I still had a lot to look into, and since I had received a call from Ray, I wanted to see for myself what was going on.I got to the spot Ray had informed me he was, and parked my car somewhere before stepping out of it. He came closer and waved at me."Did you find anything?""Come take a look at this." Get responded, before I trailed behind him.Once we got there, I saw Sarah's car in a worse state. I curled my hands into fist, imagining what the hell she must have gone through, and how scared she must have be
Becky's POVMy mom remained silent while staring at me. She had been coughing for about 2 minutes. I still had my arms folded, and then my back rested on my seat "What do you mean honey?" She questioned."You heard me right mom. Did dad ever hate Sarah?" I questioned again.She dropped her glass of juice on the table and cleared her throat."Darling." She started, but I was no longer interested in all the sweet names I was hearing.I rolled my eyes, waiting impatiently for her to speak up."You saw it didn't you? Your dad hates Sarah down to her bones, and was all to protect you."I knew she was lying, I could feel it, I could smell it. Something was definitely suspicious, and I really wanted to know what it was, but then it was clear to me that I would get absolutely nothing of the truth by asking her."Alright. I believe you mom." I replied.I was more focused on the expression on her face when I uttered that. She had this calm look, but deep down I knew she wasn't so calm over the
Becky's POV"I'd like a room here please," I said, as soon as I got to the reception area of the hotel. Two ladies were present, and one of them was attending to me."Alright, that'll be a thousand dollars.".I immediately opened my bag and took out my card. "The finest wine you have here as well." I said, dropping my card on the table.Once she was done, I was handed the key and I immediately stepped away. I had decided to live apart from Clark, and thankfully, this was the first stage of enjoying my freedom.I swiped the card on the lock, and the door immediately opened. The room was painted yellow, exactly in my favourite colour.I dropped my bag on the table close to the bed and immediately headed straight for the bathroom after tying a towel round my waist.30 minutes later, I was out, with a towel around my hair, and my body as well.I took a seat on the bed, and brought out my phone.I had been handed everything back. My life was starting to become different, starting to feel d
Hayden's POV"Hayden." Ray called."I'm listening." I replied, staring at him for a quick second ahd taking my eyes back to my phone."Don't you think it's time to strike? I mean, you've got nothing to lose now that Sarah's down, and her company wouldn't be able to survive without yours. You've come this far, and you shouldn't let your efforts go to waste.""There's more important things to focus on right now, Ray. Like Clark, we don't know who he really is yet.""Clark is none of our business, we had nothing to do with him from the very beginning. If this goes on, then everything might turn against us in the future. Clark's digging deep into your past, and you know he'll get what he's looking for very soon."I hit my hand hard on the wheel at the thought of it."Not now. Not when Sarah's still recuperating."Ray heaved deeply and leaned back on his seat, while I gritted my teeth in anger.He brought out a cigarette and passed one over to me. "Thanks." I said as I collected it from h
Hayden's POVI sat down beside Sarah, staring at her and watching her sleep peacefully. I had been there for a while now.I rose up on my feet afterwards, but when I turned to leave, she opened her eyes and called my name."Hayden." I heard her voice.I was happy she was awake, and since I knew she was still in a lot of pain, I leaned towards her and helped her sit upright on the bed."Are you alright?" I questioned immediately. She nodded her head, "How long have I been asleep?" She questioned."Since yesterday, but the doctor said you need a lot of it.""What about the company? And Stacey? I've been away for too long, Hayden." "Stacey's taking care of everything over there. Ray's over there as well." I replied.She heaved in relief, "Thank you so much.""How do you feel now?""I'm fine. Strong enough to walk on my own now." She replied."Sarah." I called, making her raise her head to stare at me. I leaned closer to her on the bed, and then touched her hand."Lay low for a bit. Th
3 Days LaterSarah's POVIt's so good to be back to work. I stepped out of my car after it was halted in the company's garage and raised my head to stare at the building.I had missed work so fucking much, and it was all because Hayden had begged me to stay back and recuperate.Ohhh, I forgot, he had also gotten some bodyguards to protect me, and a personal driver as well.I knew Hayden was scared and that he didn't want what happened repeating itself, but wasn't all this a bit too much? I felt a bit uncomfortable earlier when the door was opened by one of my bodyguards.I really wasn't used to carrying bodyguards around because I felt I could protect myself, but Hayden had made me promise I would never go anywhere without any of them.I walked into the company to meet Stacey standing close to the elevator. It was like she had been expecting my presence."Good day." She greeted me, but I replied to her with a hug instead. I knew she was shocked."Thank you for being in charge during m
Becky:Alejandro let out a smile as well."He got right into your trap?" He questioned, and I nodded my head in response."Definitely." I said afterwards."You sure Clark would find out about this?"I heaved loudly first, suddenly becoming so scared when I heard Clark's name. For three days now, Clark and I only see each other for a few hours to talk about my progress.Alejandro had given me the green light to go ahead with whatever Clark wanted me to do. He said he would solve the rest on his own when I get it all done. We had been meeting like this in secret and telling each other our next plans.I relaxed a bit, swallowing my saliva."He mustn't." I replied."Becky." He called my name calmly and I turned to stare at his face."I can handle all of this alone, please." He whispered.I knew he could do it alone, and I knew with the snap of his fingers, it'll get done immediately, but I was still scared.Clark knows a secret that I'm not proud of. He would tell on me if anything goes w
