Chris’s POVI dropped the call just like I had that I would, not even giving her a chance to protest. The gnawing guilt that I was a billionaire while my aunt whom I loved so much was struggling financially was getting to me, making me feel sick to my stomach.And that was going to change. I waited for her to send me the bank account number, and while I did that, I made another call and told one of my drivers to use one of the other cars that go for her at the coffee shop. When I dropped the call, I noticed a new message and it was from her. I was so glad that she had not given in to her pride. I knew her to be a proud woman, ever since, from growing up. I tapped open the message and I saw exactly what I was waiting for. To be honest, if she did not need money this bad, she would have never sent it. That was the kind of person she was. I mean, yeah, I was still a bit mad to find out that she had been the one to reject me when I was a baby and that it was her brother who had accepte
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Storytime
Chris’s POVI waited with bated breath for my aunt to tell me what she knew. I had a feeling that it was a lot that she was holding back, and I really wanted to know. I was tired of living in secrets. Aunt Maze sighed, putting another spoon of ice cream in her mouth before finally speaking, “Your actual father, William Bill, was a brilliant man. He was on the brink of a medical breakthrough when it came to longevity in humans.”“Okay…” I replied in a small voice, beckoning her to continue. “But…that was when your adoptive father found out about the program. He wanted it for himself and had even tried to reach out to Willaim to buy it from him for a huge sum of money. But the guy said no, and that was the beginning of the end for him.” My heart had a heavy bag of anxiety sitting on top of it. Based on where this seemed to be going, I was not going to like it at all. “What did he do?” My voice was tinged with emotions. She wet her lips and then broke eye contact with me, looking eve
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Elevator Rides
Chris’s POVI was in the back of the car, heading back to the office. My lunch break was over and I still had a lot to do, even though I felt the urge to just find a way to get to my father and have a long talk with him about him, I had to resist it. I adjusted my weight in the leather seat and stared out the window at the passing building. The food at the restaurant had been really good and it had been expensive, but in my opinion, it was worth it. My aunt had left and she had told me that I should not let any of the things that she told me get to my head, but she was too late, it had already gotten to my head. She also told me that she received the money and was really grateful, that it meant a lot to you. She said that the only reason she didn’t talk about it when she arrived or during the meeting was because she felt a bit embarrassed, she felt like she should have been the one giving me money rather than the other way around. I had to convince her that I did not mind, that sh
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Talking To Dad
Chris’s POVThe tension that lingered as I waited to hear what my father was about to say was very palpable. I’m not going to lie, my heart was thumping in my chest and adrenaline surged through me. I had stood up to him and it felt good, I would not have had it any other way. “Chris, have you forgotten who you are talking to?” The man replied in a hard tone. “So you think you have grown balls now because you have chosen to betray your family. Do you think that is what makes you a man? You’re a f*cking coward.” He started to laugh deeply. I swallowed, taking in a huge breath and releasing it slowly as a way to calm myself. I could feel the anger rising in me, and if I did not collect myself, I knew that I was going to say something that I should not say. Yes, I now knew about what he had done to William and me, but I did not want him to know that I knew the truth just yet. Because if he knew that I knew, he would know that it was because of Aunt Maze. I did not want to put her in
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Contemplation And Forgiveness
Linda’s POVMy heart felt heavy and my emotions felt raw. I was lying in my bed, buried in my duvet as the rain assaulted the roof of the house. The windows were closed and the water from the sky splashed against it. It was storming outside and I could not do much, but even if it was not raining cats and dogs outside, I did not have the strength to do anything. Maybe it was the pregnancy, or maybe it was just the fact that I was depressed. I sniffled, wiping the tears from my face. My phone was in my hand and I was looking at photos of me and Chris, where everything was simple; when everything was beautiful. How was I supposed to forgive him and heal after what he had done? After he had slept with a woman and gotten her pregnant. And when I finally felt like I could breathe again, I happened to find out that he had sent her a million dollars. I mean, I understood as to why he sent her money. Meghan was pregnant with his child and she had to be taken care of, but the thought still
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Going Back To China
Linda’s POVThe storm was still strong but compared to the one that was in my heart right now, it was nothing. I adjusted myself on the bed, sitting upright. “Hello, Chris,” I said in a soft tone. A few seconds of silence passed and then he finally spoke, “Linda, have you been crying?” He sounded hurt. Why did he have to ask me that? Why?! The moment that the question left his lips, more tears spilled out of my eyes, my vision getting blurry as I sobbed lowly. “No…” I lied, even though it was clear that I was crying right at that moment.“Oh my gosh, Linda. Are you alone?” He asked. “I wish I was there with you right now, to wrap my arms around you. I wish I was there to wipe your tears away.” I sniffled, my vision clearing as I blinked the tears away. “Well, you’re not.” He cursed under his breath. “My love, I am so sorry. I swear on my life and my businesses that I am so f*cking sorry. I broke your heart, I disrespected you. I betrayed you and your trust in me. I became the very
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Choices Were Made
Linda’s POVTheir reactions were a mix of surprise and concern, evident in the furrowed brows and exchanged glances between them. “China?” My Dad’s voice held a note of concern. “Is everything alright? Why the sudden decision?” I took a deep breath, steeling myself for their reactions. “I have decided to go back to Chris,” I said quietly, my voice barely above a whisper.Silence descended in the room, thick and heavy, as their expressions morphed into a mixture of shock and concern. “Linda, are you sure about this?” My mom’s voice was gentle, her eyes filled with worry.“I have forgiven him,” I replied, trying to sound more confident than I felt. “And I want to give us another chance.” My brother’s brows furrowed deeper. “Linda, have you really thought this through? After everything he put you through?” “I have,” I insisted, though a flicker of doubt danced in the depths of my mind. “I just…I need to do this. For myself.” “And the baby? What about the baby?” My mom’s concern was
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Honey, I'm Home!
Linda’s POVThe car made a sharp turn as we were headed to the airport. I was calling William on the burner phone but he did not answer. But I did not give up, I just kept calling. Finally, he answered and sounded like he was busy. “Linda? Is everything alright? I’m kind of busy right now.” I could hear gunshots in the background. “What the f*ck? Are you being shot at?” I asked him, worry filling my mind. He chuckled. “No, I’m the one doing the shooting. Is everything alright?”I was still very concerned. Who was he shooting? “I think I’m the one who should be asking these questions, William. What or who are you shooting at?”He sniffled dryly. “No one. I’m shooting at no one. I’m just practicing my aim, you know I got to stay on my aim. Especially now that we’re poking the bear.” He made a throaty sound. I released a breath that I did not know that I was holding. “I thought…I thought.” “I know,” He replied. “You’re worried about me because of what we’re doing. And I know, the no
