Pamela's p.o.vI didn't think much about Mia saying she'd take care of things because my mind was more occupied with thinking of how I'd get Charles back just like Grace suggested. The pressing question was if Charles was worth what it would cost to get him back and my answer was…yes. I was finally saying yes to him like I should have two years ago and for the first time it felt right like I knew what I was doing.I just hoped that Charles would take me back for the third time and my chest felt heavy like I would suffocate any minute at the thought that he might not take me back this time.Mia and Felix had a very beautiful house and accommodated me nicely. Felix was in the living room when we arrived and reading a book."We're back in one piece, babe," Mia said as she approached him from behind the couch. He tilted his head and they shared a kiss."Pamela, we were worried sick, how are you feeling?" He asked as he rose to his feet and we hugged briefly."Like shit, hello Felix" I sm
Pamela's p.o.vIt would destroy my company but at least Charles' would be safe."I'm going to ask to have Charles' designs back" I added.Mia's mouth fell open and the popcorn she had in there fell to the couch."Mia!" I whisper-yelled as I stared at the mess she'd made."Oh my god you're head over heels for this man!" She exclaimed, brushing down the pieces of popcorn on the couch."Independent Mia giving up something she's worked hard on to save a man?" She asked placing a hand over her chest and I chucklednervously as I nudged her."Stop being so dramatic," I said as I rolled my eyes."Do you think Charles will forgive you after this though?" She asked and I sighed."I honestly don't care right now I just want him not to suffer" I said as tears welled up in my eyes. I wondered what Charles was doing right now, trying to save his reputation maybe? I bet he wasn't asleep and it was my fault."I want to be less of a horrible person" I said and Mia frowned."You are not a horrible pe
Pamela's p.o.v"What do you mean by that?" I asked.Royal smirked as he opened his iPad and placed it in front of me.I glanced at a few words of what looked like a contract then looked at him."What is this?" I asked."That's the soft copy of our contract, if you bothered to read that which you didn't, you'd know that I own 70 percent of the shares in your company" Royal paused as my eyes darted to his iPad.70 percent? I began to read and scroll through the contract.Oh my god, he did own that much! How could he do this?"Why didn't you tell me about this?" I asked with a frown as I rose to my feet.Royal shrugged, looking totally unbothered."You didn't ask," He said."Because I didn't know that you were a snake! I trusted you with everything and you…you go and do this?" I asked. The more words I spoke, the more tears welled up in my eyes."I trusted you as well now you want to destroy all that we've worked for" He said as he took his iPad back. I shook my head as tears streamed do
Pamela's p.o.vI brushed my hair out of my face as I stared at myself in the mirror. My make up was done perfectly as well as my hair and my black long dress was literally out of this world. We searched far and wide to find this beauty and by 'we' I meant Mia and I.It was the eve of my birthday and the evening of Royal's launch party.I was beyond nervous."Mia, Pamela, you guys are fifteen minutes late already!" Felix yelled.We'd told him to be our life alarm clock otherwise we would be really late."Pamela!" Mia yelled my name and I heaved a breath."We've got this, Pamela" I said to myself and nodded. After one last glance at my beautiful face, I headed out of the bathroom and out of my room to find Mia and Felix sharing a kiss in the living room."Get a room you two" I joked, scrunching my face and they pulled away laughing."Okay, I'm ready," Mia said."Bye babe" Mia said to Felix when she grabbed my hand and he pouted."Don't worry, you can have her back in a few hours" I said
Pamela's p.o.v"...with that, I present to you Markinson establishment's newest designs" Royal announced into the microphone and stepped aside as the people clapped.The hall fell silent and all eyes were glued to the white screen, awaiting the designs which were…terrible?What the heck were we looking at? That faded stiletto looks like it was made by some tired shoe maker from centuries ago.The entire hall was suddenly full of murmurs and angry faces. I was so lost, I looked at Charles and from this angle I could see his brows were creased and he looked confused as well.It didn't look like he did this…then how did…"Stop the slide show, right now!" Royal growled, enraged and the slide show stopped."I wouldn't wear that gown even if it was the last clothing on earth" Mia said and I leaned closer to her."I promise that those aren't Charles' designs" I whispered. The least I could do was defend him."Oh, I know," She said, staring straight at Royal who was talking to one of his men
Pamela's p.o.v"What has he done to your company?" Charles inquired, his brows creased as he searched my eyes and I gave him a small smile."Nothing you have to worry about," I said as my hand flew to my mouth. Shit.I felt like I was going to throw up any minute."I'm just glad your designs are safe Charles and I'm so sorry that I've been utterly foolish all this while" I said and Charles frowned. I was aware of his hand that still rested in my back."Pamela…" He began."Goodbye, Charly" I grabbed my purse and Mia's hand and walked briskly out of the room."What is this rush about?" Mia asked as we came out in the hall, I kept pulling her along as I headed to a restroom."I need to throw up, that's what" I said."Oh…no, we gotta walk faster" She said and we did. We got to the restroom and she held my hair back.The night I came to Mia's penthouse suite, she found out I was pregnant. I didn't know the right time to tell her but when she asked if I'd eat the meal she'd prepared, I decl
Pamela's p.o.v"I'm not following," I said as I shook my head."Girl, do you remember the document you signed on your birthday?" She asked.Right. I did sign a document that evening."Yes," I said and she nodded."And you know how I helped your mom because she was drunk?" Mia asked. I did ask her to take care of my mom."Oh my god you got her to sign the documents and transferred ownership to her!" I whispered.I'd never been more grateful in my life. This meant that Royal couldn't have my company because I never gave it to him to begin with! My signature on his documents were useless."Yep" Mia said and I cupped her cheeks and stared into her eyes. Tears welled up in mine."I am literally forever indebted to you, girl. I owe you my life," I said."Woah, don't be so dramatic!" She smiled and I wrapped her in a tight hug."Too tight, I can't breathe" Mia choked and I let her go."Sorry" I apologised. "I don't think you realise that you saved an entire company's ass, you might as well
Royal's p.o.vPamela had the guts to play a Markinson. She hadn't realised who I was and what I was capable of doing yet. What she needed was a reminder.I didn't know why I hadn't thought to look at those designs before that day. Maybe because I trusted her. I'd been a fool.Not only did I display the worst possible designs in the entire world and got humiliated for it, I had lost some of my biggest partnerships. None of them were responding to my calls so I decided I'd let the heat die down and reach out to them later with my own original designs. I was a genius, there was no way they would turn me down.I planned to sell Pamela's company to a friend of mine. That was only the beginning of what I was going to do to her and it was all going according to plan until my lawyer called me at five fucking am in the morning."Max, it better be good" I said, half asleep."Uh…it's quite bad Royal" He said and I immediately frowned."What is?" I inquired."The company, it doesn't belong to yo
