Bella’s Pov My maid ignored me completely and looked down at Lucas like he was the one that was paying her bills and not me. “What did I say?” I exclaimed in frustration. She looked at me with sympathetic eyes and back down at Lucas in fear. “You are dismissed.” Lucas declared as he slowly stood back up. His narrowed eyes and pursed lip had the maid paling. The frustration I felt as the maid scurried out of the theater had me screaming in anger. “Aaaaaa I want to break up.” The anger on his face slowly morphed to one of shock. “Break up?” He asked with a raised brow. My face got red as I looked away not wanting to look at his handsome face anymore. “Yes, you should leave.” I mumbled even though my heart was begging me to not be dumb. Danny sighed as he stood up and walked in front of me. He looked down at me with a disapproving gaze that had me more flustered than I already was. I looked away from him and towards the black wall that looked like it was made of velvet. I h
Lucas’s Pov I stared at the hole in the meeting room wall with a grim expression on my face. I could almost guarantee that if Danny wasn’t in the room that I would’ve had to defend myself. “How could you do this to us?” Penelope asked through a fake sob that had me turning towards her and narrowing my eyes. “I didn’t do anything to you.” I stated nonchalantly. “You ended our partnership.” She screamed at me in frustration. “You refused to take no for an answer.” I exclaimed with my own frustration. She blinked a few times as she stared at me through her watery eyes. “So you do this to us?” She asked hysterically. I leaned forward with narrowed eyes making sure that my words got through to her. “You make money off of me, I don’t make money off of you and it seemed like your father forgot that, I thought I would remind him.” She looked at me in shock as she took in my words. “We will lose billions.” She mumbled as she looked down at the table. “If I remember correctly your
Bella’s Pov The smile Lucas gave me as I walked towards him made this so much more worth it. Not even all the eyes that were watching me intently could ruin this moment. Lucas looked up at me with a smirk that had me blushing and looking down at the bag I was holding. “I got shrimp and pasta.” I stated meekly as I set it down on the table. “Shrimp and pasta?” He asked as he opened up the bag and pulled out the black to go box. I grabbed the seat next to him and pulled it closer. “Yea, there’s a place right around the corner.” I stated with a small smile as I sat down and scooted closer to the table. Lucas looked at me with furrowed brows as he opened up the box. “Is it fresh?” I grabbed my own box and pulled it out not bothering with the silverware since I had shrimp and chicken. “They gave us someone else’s order.” I mumbled as I opened up the lid and smiled bright. The chicken had a nice golden brown and seemed to be the crispiest chicken I’ve ever seen. “We should have o
Liam’s Pov I should’ve hated that they made Bella into a spoiled brat but I couldn’t. The only hope I had was Bella’s attitude because without her memories she was the perfect wife. “Bella relax, Lucas thought you meant you took someone’s food that they were eating, he didn’t realize that you got the food from the kitchen.” Danny sighed in exasperation. I could instantly tell by his fatherly gaze as he rolled his eyes at her that he would be no help. Lucas would never betray her unless he was tricked, and with Danny by his side I didn’t see that happening with ease. Danny most likely seen what I seen, the perfect husband that would make sure Bella didn’t turn out like Bethany. Bella gaze snapped towards Danny and what looked like confusion and embarrassment crossed her face as her cheeks tinted pink and her eyes glossed over. She took the back of her hand and wiped her eyes gently as she sniffled a little. “Why would I take the food someone was eating?” She asked as she looked
Bella’s Pov Danny looked at me with a small smile that didn’t help relieve my anger. They were talking about me like I was not sitting right here and like I didn’t have a mind of my own. “You guys will not talk about me like I’m not here.” I stated before anyone could say another bad thing about me. The crazy stalker of mine looked at me with eyes that blazed with unadulterated anger that was uncalled for. I turned my attention away from him and looked down at the paper work that was in front of Lucas. I grabbed the packet and flipped through the pages not really bothering to read any of it since it was not really my cup of tea. My stalker seemed to think that I was actually taking interest in the documents because he was quick to throw his two cents at me like I was some business woman. “The modifications they are making goes against your grandfathers beliefs and against your own.” Before I could tell him I didn’t care he was standing up and walking to the white board that I
Bella’s Pov I tried to ignore the way Danny was looking at me and instead reluctantly listened to Liam talk about how deadly the device my grandfather created would become if I didn’t reverse my signature. “Millions of animals will die.” He stated as he started to draw little scribbles around each section. I pursed my lips together as I stared at what looked like two circles and a snake. “First the feline species will go extinct, along with polar bears and penguins.” He stated as he quickly drew around each section. I stared at what I could only assume was his version of a cat and frowned. It looked more like a snowman than anything. “That is theoretical, you have no substantial facts to back this up.” The man next to Cameron stated with narrowed eyes. Liam looked at him with a scowl that could kill and spoke gravelly. “Even with the facts in your face you still deny it.” I looked at the board that was just writing and over towards the man that had spoke. “Can you prove hi
Bethany’s Pov “Lily please come back inside, it’s getting cold.” My husband pleaded from the door of our small shack. Even though I wanted to ignore him I knew that he would come lay next to me until I decided to come back inside if I did. “Give me five more minutes.” I sighed as I blissfully looked at the stars in the midnight sky. Even though our small hut had the bare minimum in the inside the beach made up for what it lacked. “I’ll be back out with a blanket for us.” He stated as the screen door slammed against the rickety siding. I looked back at the brown screen in frustration. He hadn’t even waited to see if I wanted him to join me. All I seen was his receding broad back. I ignored the way his tanned skin looked shirtless and turned my attention back towards the sky. Adams may have been perfect in every aspect but that didn’t mean he wasn’t unbearable at times. Every time I decided I wanted to lay out on the sand alone or do anything alone he would try to join me. He w
Bethany’s Pov I smiled as Adams sleep peacefully, loving how warm he was. His arm was wrapped around me and his soft snores as he slept brought a weird sense of comfort to me that I never knew I needed. For over a year I slept alone in our queen size bed. I would always stay awake for hours listening to the howling of the wind at night or the way the window flaps would bang against our bedroom window. I would stay outside for as long as I could so I would be able to have a little peace. Peace I didn’t realize would come if I just had my husband sleep next to me. It was like as soon as he wrapped his arms around me all the weird noise’s disappeared and in return came the best sleep I’ve had since I came home. A knock on the door told me that our morning milk and fresh eggs had just arrived. Another knock followed when I didn’t answer causing me to grumble as I moved Adams arm from around my waist. I usually would’ve gotten up already to mend to the house before he cooked bre
