My Stepson Is a Bully CHAPTER 42: HE KNOWS SOMETHING
Katie's povI buried my head in my hands, feeling my frustration grow. I saw the messages Dylan was sent, and they were genuinely trying to pull out of the company—our best partners. I had to think quickly: what would Maverick do in this situation? Well, there was no way for me to know for sure since he was dead now. But I didn't think talking with the clients would harm them. That might work wonders.“Let them know I'm refusing their request,” I told him. “I want to talk with them, think that's possible?““I'll let them know,” he said, typing furiously on the keyboard. “Do you want to fix a meeting?“Well, duh, what had I just said to him? “Yes. I don't want to be the one to decide the date and time for them. Let them tell me when is convenient.“He nodded. He would send a mass message to the three of them. But wait, what if it wasn't just those three clients harboring suspicions of me? Undoubtedly, the others had heard the whole incident. “You know what?” I stamped my palm on hi
My Stepson Is a Bully CHAPTER 43: I KILLED MAVERICK
AUTHOR’S POVMatt was talking, but Blaze could barely hear what he was saying. Not because he couldn't attend but because he wasn't listening. The reports the manager had brought to him since Friday had been sitting on his desk without him sparing them a glance. How could he bother himself with workers' reports when his life turned upside down? How he managed to hijack him and make him sit was still a mystery to Blaze. He had been patronizing him with grunts and nods of the head since he started talking. Blaze placed his hand on his chin, leaning on it. Now, why was Matt looking at him expectantly?“Sorry, I didn't get your question,” he said, sure that he had been asked some questions.“I asked if you understand why we have to let Miss Liana go.“ Matt said, repeating himself. He had asked the same question twice, so why did the CEO still have to ask him to repeat himself?“Oh, right." he had no idea who Liana was, but if the manager here felt that she shouldn't be working here anym
My Stepson Is a Bully CHAPTER 44: SOMEONE WANTS ME DEAD
KATIE’S POVMy phone was ringing, the annoying tune persistent. Letting out a grunt, I reluctantly picked up the phone. My eyes darted over the screen to see who the caller was.Unknown number…I couldn’t help but wonder if it was one of her clients…“Mrs Katie?“ The person on the other side spoke as I placed it on my left ear. It was a voice that sounded familiar, but I couldn't quite put it.“Hi, who's speaking?“ I questioned.“It's Dorris. Where are you now?“ She asked, her voice a little shaky, and I could tell she was in a compromising situation.“On my way home. Is anything the issue?“ I quickly threw forth, my ears at alert, while my heart pounded loudly against my ribcage.“Yes, there's a huge problem. You can't come home,” She informed in a whisper, her voice graced with seriousness.“And why can't I? Have they forbidden me from coming back to my husband’s house?“ I snarled, a little annoyed at the carelessness of her words.Now, that would be an overstep on their side. They
My Stepson Is a Bully CHAPTER 45: WANTED BY THE POLICE
KATIE’S POV“What do you know about the game afoot?“ I asked. She might know more than I did. After all, she had probably spent most of her life in that house.She shrugged. “little to nothing, but I know the most important thing. You're innocent. You don't strike me as someone who would do such anyway.“I had a sound mind to tell her that looks could be deceptive, even though I did know what I was capable of. “So if you know this, why don't you tell the police?“ I opted for it instead. It would be helpful to get her to give that statement on my behalf. Then, the police would have to investigate more instead of just concluding.She shook her head sadly. “I wish I could. I do. But what is my word against solid proof? They can easily decide that I'm lying, and where would that leave me?“As she explained, I understood her position in the case. She had to stay neutral or risk her job since Blaze was heading this whole conspiracy. And apart from that, she could be taken as my accomplic
My Stepson Is a Bully CHAPTER 46: KARMA CALLS
AUTHOR’S POV“She's not answering,” Hunter said, slipping his phone back into his pocket. His brother had asked him to call Katie, telling him he was the only one she would answer. Well, he was wrong; not only had she not answered, but she had also switched her phone off. His second attempt was met with a switched-off response.Blaze heaved a sigh, annoyed. Why did Katie have to give them so much trouble? And why didn't she answer Hunter's call? He was confident she cared very much for him and would not hesitate to do so, but that was all an act, too. “This is so fucked up," he said. Everything had been since he had found out the truth. And now, to add to it all, Katie was suddenly missing.How was that even possible? She had no idea what was happening in the home, and her secretary had said she came to work this morning. She also said she left early, and if that was true, she should have been back hours ago. Except if she hadn't gone to work and the secretary was lying. Or, more li
My Stepson Is a Bully CHAPTER 47: ENEMIES SMILES
KATIE’S POVI dozed off a couple of times as we wove in and out of the streets. I felt drained, and my legs ached, but at least I was sitting comfortably in a car halfway through the city instead of being locked behind bars. I wasn't completely safe now, heck, I wasn't safe at all, but at least this was something. As long as I could evade the police, I was safe. I wondered how long it would take them to realize I wasn't anywhere near and then alert police in the other districts, who would then spread their radar to other cities. That would be a process, and hopefully, it would be long enough for me to be safely hidden in the heart of wherever I was headed.That was what bothered me the most. Where was I headed? I had no idea. All I knew was I had to leave that city. But after that, then what? Where would I go? I knew no one else; the only family member I had was my stepmother, and she would not offer me a helping hand. I could already see the glee on her face as she handed me over
My Stepson Is a Bully CHAPTER 48: THE TRUTH IN DAZZLING LIGHTS
AUTHOR’S POV“So apparently, we have a lead,” Axel informed his brothers. He had just successfully arranged with that man an outrageously massive sum for him to bring Katie to them. He almost laughed at the excitement in the man's voice when the arrangement was concluded, and he had to be a fool to think that he would go through with his part of it.He thought he was at an advantage because he had Katie. Well, it was easy enough to take her and send him on his way empty-handed. There was nothing he could use to hold him to fulfil his part after all. If he chose to kill her instead of handing her over, then he had no problem with that. That was one less problem to solve.“A lead?“ Hunter asked, “Does anyone know where she is?““Not just where she is but where she's headed. He's driving her to Charleston.” He dropped, a grin playing on his face.Blaze felt impressed. Katie was a woman of big dreams, it seemed. Did Katie think she could get that far so soon without them finding her? And
My Stepson Is a Bully CHAPTER 49: BILL!!
AUTHOR’S POVBill's door was unlocked so Blaze didn't bother knocking. Fuck good manners, he was in a really bad state of mind already. If Bill wanted his visitors to knock, he should learn to keep his door locked.The minute he stepped in, hands grabbed him and his arms were pinned behind him. He lets out a groan, Bill still hadn't stopped this annoying way of first making the people who stepped into his house feel threatened. Well he didn't feel threatened, he was already used to it to some extent. After all he was never hurt. He wondered if there were any who had been hurt by this silliness.“You don't need to be so rough” He muttered struggling slightly against the man behind him.“The once in a life time experience to handle the revered Blaze Griffin like this, you can be sure I'll make the most of it.“ The man's breath was landing on his ear and it made Blaze wince. The smell of cigarettes and alcohol filling his nostril.“I heard that Seven.“ A man appeared at the top of the st
