Once Upon a Night With My Stepdad Chapter 72
Scarlett's eyes flipped open and she looked around, trying to recall where she was. She finally understood that she was in her room, lying on the bed. She suddenly remembered everything that happened before she passed out, everything that Adrian said to her, and immediately broke down. She cried her eyes out, her heart aching like an arrow had been driven into it. She couldn't believe that the man she had been fighting to have for close to a year now was nothing but a fraud. He had been pretending all this while and kept his motives hidden. It was almost as if the universe was constantly testing her, things always seemed to turn sour every time she started to enjoy herself. “I hope this all ends up being a dream.” She sniffed, tears blurring her vision. She pulled her own hair, overwhelmed by pain and anger. She didn't know what to think or what to do, she felt like she was drowning and there was no one to save her. She sat up on the bed, tears still pouring down her cheeks.The doo

The car came to a halt and Vivian took her hands off the steering wheel, shaking from fear and looking around, wondering where she was. The gun was still pointed at her head, and her captor refused to move it, he didn't even speak to her throughout the drive. Her heart thumped loudly against her chest, afraid that her death was near.“Pl.. please don't kill me. What do you want? Money? I'll give you lots of money, but please don't hurt me.” She pleaded, breathing heavily, her hands up in the air.“Shut the fuck up!” Her captor barked at her before getting out of the car in a hurry. He rushed to the front, pulled her out, and kept the gun pointed to her head. She let out a shriek, shaking at the spot, afraid to make any sudden movements. He was wearing a mask, which he slowly took off and Vivian's eyes widened. Her soul almost left her body when her captor revealed himself.“Maxwell?” She exclaimed, her eyes glued to his grinning face.“Oh yes Vivian, I'm glad you still remember me. I

“Kidnapped? What the hell do you mean by that?” Scarlett's voice was low but emitted worry. She lifted her eyes to look at Lily whose eyes wandered. It was obvious that she was hiding something.“I'll call you back Nelly.” She hung up and faced Lily with a looming glare.“Did you know?” Her voice was low, anger lingering in her tone.“Well… I.. I found out but your uncle asked me not to tell you anything.” Lily answered, releasing a loud sigh. Scarlett clenched her fists, and every thought of the heartbreak she was feeling, dissipated.“Why would you…!” She paused and immediately called her uncle.Her heart had sunk into her stomach at the thought of her mother being in the hands of some ruthless men. She almost lost it, thinking about what they could be putting her through. Tears started to gather under her eyes but she blinked them away while waiting for her uncle to pick up his phone.“Scarlett.” His voice came, echoes following the sound of his voice. He seemed to be in a large sp

Two weeks had already gone by and Vivian was making a slow recovery. She was discharged from the hospital and Scarlett took her home to continue to rest. She was relieved of all her duties for the meantime while she recovered. Richard and Scarlett were sitting beside Vivian on her bed as she had requested. She had told them that she wanted to talk to them and that was why they were in her room.“What was so urgent Mom? I have to go to the office to attend to important things due to your absence.” Scarlett questioned, glancing at the watch on her wrist.“Come on Scarlett, you're the boss. Who's going to check you for tardiness?” Vivian asked, shaking her head.“It's fine, I'll go straight to the point.” She added, noticing that both Richard and Scarlett did not have a single smile on their faces. She cleared her throat and tried to move but ended up reeling the pain in her arm. She let out a wince and Scarlett rushed to hold her, this made her smile, tears lingering in her eyes.“You

“I found a match for you!” Lily shrieked, running to Scarlett and shoving her phone in her face. Scarlett was a bit startled by this but went ahead to check the phone. She was confused when she saw a photo of a man, all his interests written down beside his photo like a profile.“What is this? Who is he?” Scarlett questioned.“Can't you see? You both are a match, your interests and hobbies are the same and it doesn't hurt that he's a sweet piece of candy.” Lily winked, a naughty grin playing across her face.“Are you being serious right now Lily? I'm sick of you trying to hook me up with all these men from dating sites.” Scarlett argued, flipping through the pages of the magazine in her hands. “Come on Scarlett, just meet up with him. If you don't like him, then that's fine.” “I will not.” “Yes Lily, leave her alone. Besides, online dating is so overrated.” Nelly chuckled, entering the room with three glasses of juice which she expertly balanced on her hand. She handed Scarlett and

“What is the meaning of this Richard? Is this some sort of joke?” Vivian glared at the proud woman who was busy gloating behind Richard. She wished to wipe her smirk off with a punch.“I'm afraid it's not a joke. Jacob here is your father's heir, his only son.” Richard answered and the young man nodded. He was only two years younger than Scarlett, but his face was smooth as a baby's behind, with a nerdy look. “Uncle can you please stop it!? My father had no son and we all know this. I am his only child. I just graduated so this is not the kind of news I should be coming back to.” Scarlett sighed, trying to blow it off as a joke. Perhaps, her uncle was just playing a prank on them.“Whether you choose to believe it or not does not change anything. Jacob is your father's son, Mr Davenport was my lover.” Gwen spoke up, her tongue sharp and voice laced with hate as she glared at Scarlett.“Who the fuck do you think you are to talk to my daughter!?” Vivian lashed out immediately, glaring

Instinctively, Scarlett stepped back, getting rid of the idea of going to meet Adrian. This new lady of his seemed to cling onto him quite tightly and led him away to meet with a bunch of other people. Scarlett couldn't help but fume as she watched them, feeling the blood pumping through her veins. She tried to ignore them and make business connections like she had originally planned, but her eyes kept darting towards their direction.The girl Adrian was with was effortlessly beautiful, and Scarlett couldn't deny that. She was petite but possessed charming curves, which were even more accentuated by the dress she was putting on. Her hair was long, reaching to her waist, and she flung it about at every given opportunity.Scarlett couldn't take her eyes off them, especially because Adrian seemed happy with the girl. She hated to admit to herself that she was jealous.“Why would I be jealous? He's a liar, and I want nothing to do with him.” She scoffed, mumbling to herself.“Miss Davenp

Lily and Scarlett were sitting in the room, talking about the sudden changes that had occurred, especially about Gwen and Jacob when Lily realized how absent-minded Scarlett was.“Scarlett.” She called out, but there was no response, which pushed her to tap her shoulder. Scarlett flinched and released a long sigh.“Are you okay? Is it Jacob you're worried about?” Lily questioned, feeling sorry for her friend. “Unfortunately, that's not the only thing that is wrong in my life.” Scarlett answered, rubbing her tired eyes. Her voice carried some sort of weariness in them that captured Lily's attention.“What else?”“It's Adrian, I saw him yesterday night at the event I attended.” Lily's eyes widened. She had not heard anything about Adrian for the past three years now, and it's sounded like a miracle that Scarlett was mentioning him all of a sudden.“What was he doing there?”“Have you forgotten?” Scarlett scoffed. “He's a big business mogul. Of course, he'd attend events like that.” “
