CHAPTER 6 Karl’s POV, “What is it now, Donald?” I hissed into the car speaker which my phone is connected to while focusing on the road, battling to smuggle past the jam packed vehicles. Everything seems to be driving me nuts today, why the hell is there so much road jam now? I know it’s the snowy season in Texas but it’s been a while since this frustrating stupid traffic. After having a long daunting day at the company, All I need now is just to go get wild in some club tonight, chill out with bitches over some bottles of vodka and hard core sex. But it doesn’t seem like I’ll be getting any of that soon and now my P.A came blasting my phone, probably to whine about an issue at the company. “Sir, I’m really sorry but it’s Mr Romeo. He’s insisting on a %50 discount, considering that his fashion corporation is still under recognition. He’s afraid to be at loss should the commercial Ad doesn’t not yield him enough revenue.” He rambled politely. “Tell Mr Romeo that I’m running
“What are your kids talking about, Diamond?” I maintained a cold stance, my lids arch and my hands in my pocket. “I—I am really sorry… Don’t mind what they just said. They were just…” I watch her rambles, her agitation all over the place as she turns to the kids, trying to act stern. “C’mon Hayden, Braden… you three get inside now!!!” She whisper-yelled. “but mummy don’t act like you aren’t in this too. We told you were going to find you a husband and we pulled it up. Shouldn’t you be happy?” One of the boys blurted out, all of them smiling cheekily. And that got me a bit baffled and off course Diamond shy her eyes away from me, embarrasment written all over her. But…Did Diamond sent her kids to the road to act stranded and bring a man home to her? Now that I think about it, I see they were approaching only guys and even get past women and came down to me. Can’t believe that’s how shameless she is now! Perhaps nemesis is catching up with her. “H-huh? Me? When did we agree o
Diamond’s POV As Karl’s icy gaze pierced into mine, I was dying. Dying of guilt. I don’t even want to imagine how much I had broken this man, who loved me so damn much and was ready to fight for us. But I was a coward then. I didn’t even bother to find him when he left, to know what happened to him. I was a… Suddnely a gasp as I felt cold lips engulfs mine. It was him, Karl. A cold shiver ran down my spine and I stifled myself, unable to comprehend what was happening. His tongue bulged into my mouth demanding entrance and I lost it. I closed my eyes and I found myself munching hard on his lips trying to catch his pace but he was damn fast and skillful. Her breath began to hitch, the chilly atmosphere heated and I could feel my cunt hot and dripping wet. I was already whining my hips, driving my fingers in and out of his hair as he kept devouring my lips. His lips drops down and he trailed kisses down to my neck. “Oh…Karl…” I moan, squirming on the couch as I swipe my fi
. FLASH BACK - six years Ago Lennox had asked that we meet up at the penthouse claiming that he has a surprise for me which brought me down to the penthouse, excited for the surprise but to my shocker, I walked into Karl there drinking. Maybe I wouldn’t be so shocked if Karl and his younger brother Lennox were in good terms but they weren’t and the penthouse belong to just Lennox. However Karl told me that Lennox invited him saying he wanted them to settle their dispute. Turned out that they were already in a conversation cause There was two vodka shot glasses and bottles of vodka on the table. But something seem off to me. “But if that’s the case, why would he also ask me to come?” I asked skeptically. “Well, maybe he want us to settle our dispute before you.” Karl grunted spitefully, gulping down the bottle of vodka. He look a mess and a complete different version of the Karl I use to know from kid, that sweet playful kid who would always make funny majestic walks for me
“Wow that was incredible Dr. D. Never believed we could pull this up” Felix a fellow surgeon bubbled in amazement as we walked out of the operating room with the rest of the team. Some rolling out the patient connected to different tubes and IVs. “Well, I believe in trying first than just giving up. let’s always remember that these patients have relatives who are banking on us to save them.” “Very well, you are right. You really Amazing, Diamond.” He complimented again and I just gave a small nod. I don’t know why. I should be use to compliment like this by now but I can’t just find myself doing that. Probably because I had successfully done thousands of even the most complicated surgeries in the past but it has all been overlooked by my family. They keep wanting more from me. I could never be the best. They chooses to focus more on my tiniest flaws than my success. Oh shoot! Why the hell am I even thinking about them now? I’m fucking living a new life. I should forget about the
After series of surgeries which spans over five hours, I was incredibly drained. As I got to my office, I reached out for my phone first to call Rebecca. I needed to know if Rebecca was able to handle the situation about my triplets at school and I was welcomed with the Time reading 5:10 pm in bold fonts on my phone screen and beneath it... holly fish bones!!! there was hundreds of notifications. Missed calls from the school Dean. Why all this calls? Did something happened? Was Rebecca not able to dissolve the issue? my heart raced as I placed a call across to the Dean and thankfully he picked immediately. “Ma’am...” “Goodness gracious! Where on earth have you been, Ms. Smith?!” My brows narrowed in confusion. “W-What do you mean?” I asked, my brain literally in suspension. Don’t tell me Rebecca didn’t even got there? “Seriously? It’s like you really have no value for your kids. Maybe until your kids ends up in cell tonight that is when you’ll come down here. What
My team and I have been trying to reach Maggie Marie for the commercial shoot which was scheduled to be held over hours ago but the woman had just ditched me after signing a contract worth millions of dollars. I wouldn’t have been fussing this much if she wasn’t a respected artist. She was the perfect fit for the commercial shoot and I was very infuriated that I had to be at her beck and call. I was angrily pacing the room when Donald walked into my office with news. “Sir, we have found the location of Maggie Marie.” At first I felt relieved. At least that confirms that she didn’t somehow wound up dead and the money I spent on her hadn’t gone to waste. Then I felt angry because this woman had just ditched my commercial shoot for some other goddamned plan. “Where is she?” I spat out, anger mixed with race laced in my voice that made Donald squirm. “She’s at the Houston Elementary School, sir.” He answered. “An Elementary school?” I scoffed. “She ditched my commercial shoot to go t
Diamond POV, The tension that stilled air after what the boys said, was choking. “Uh...Go to the car and wait for me. I’ll be with you guys shortly.” I immediately say to the boys to lighten the air, shying my gaze away from Karl making me look even more awful. “Yes, Mummy.” They answered in unison but didn’t make an attempt to move. They just kept looking up at Karl and grinning from ear to ear. “So, Uncle Karl, when are you going to take us to the beach?” It was Hayden who asked. “Beach? I want to go to the movies!” Jayden countered. “I want to watch Superman save the city just like Uncle Karl saved us from that mean lady.” “But I want to go to the beach; I want to build a sandcastle, just like the ones we see in the movies!” Hayden insisted and as if thinking the same thing, they both turned to Braden to see if his choice would break the deadlock but thankfully, Karl intervened. “Okay now, boys, there’s no need to argue about going to the beach or the movies when we can do b
