2 DAYS AGO:A few hours after Nathan walked away from Sebastian and Talia, he hurried out of the mansion heading for nowhere because at the moment, Nathan wasn't thinking straight. He only wanted to be somewhere far away from the people whom he had trusted but had kept this huge secret from himSebastian! Just the thought of Sebastian's name in his head made him even angrier. Of all people, how could Sebastian hide the death of his father from him? As Nathan halted at a road bridge, he stared at the dark sky, monitoring the stars until a tear rolled down his eyes unexpectedly without his notice. Nathan had always thought that if his father died, he would never shed even a tear but guess he was wrong. Even after everything his father had done to him, he still didn't want him dead and he was just realizing that he loved the old man. All he ever wanted was the best for him, but Nathan simply wanted his freedom. His dad had killed his first girlfriend, but that was to protect him. His ha
"Fuck! What the freaking hell? I thought you fucking died, man! I mean, every damn person thought you were dead for so long, how's that even possible." Thiago responded, with enough shock so evident in his voice, and excitement buried deep down. This was just the perfect news because a few hours ago, he had gotten a letter from Asher and it wasn't good."I was never dead, Thiago, but I'm gonna need your help. I really don't think I can trust anyone else except you!""Sure, just say what it is you want, and I'll get it ready as soon as I can.""I need to take back what's mine, and this time, I'm counting Sebastian out of this mission. It's just you and me. I have no access to anything at the moment now that Leo's taken control and is probably monitoring some of the jets.""Just tell me where you are and I'll come pick you myself."Nathan remained silent for a few seconds, and then he continued. "Brazil. I'll meet you at the roof of Shelton's company, but not today. I need to get some i
"Damn it!" Sebastian cursed the very moment he heard the gunshot. Thankfully, it didn't meet either him or Talia because the person who had fired the shot missed. While Talia yelled, Sebastian turned around and took her hand. This was the perfect place to get them because there was no passerby."Hurry!" He yelled at Talia and took her hand.Talia didn't turn around,"Fuck, don't shoot you idiot! We need them alive." Sebastian heard someone say from behind them and he instantly recognized the person's voice. It was Micheal. "Fuck!" Sebastian cursed again wondering how the hell the son of a bastard finally found him. Deep down, Sebastian prayed that they wouldn't find Nathan. He was deeply worried about Nathan, but also thankful that Nathan wasn't with them because if he was, then the reason why they wanted them alive would be gone because Micheal would kill them.They were powerless because there was no gun.For the first time, Sebastian forgot to take along a gun with him while steppi
A FEW HOURS AGO It was finally time for Nathan to go. He had ordered some new clothes, gotten a face mask, and a face cap because Nathan didn't want to take chances on his way.He might not know Leo so we'll, but if there was one thing Nathan knew about his brother was that Leo was afraid of what he could do to him. Nathan tucked the new cellphone he had gotten into his back pocket and began to walk out of the hotel. He had to check out so he headed for the counter. The same lady he had met yesterday was there, and when she saw him, the smile on her face broadened. Nathan stared at her, admitting to himself that she was indeed beautiful, but he had no time to be flirty around her. He checked out of the hotel and headed outside.Nathan stood by the roadside staring at the people walking around. He checked his wristwatch and noticed that he still had a few hours left. As he looked around, his mind just wasn't at rest and because he had left Sebastian and Talia for two days on their own
After Victoria had the file and everything that Taylor had asked for on the table, she walked out of the office, and then Taylor opened the documents. She wasn't trying to pry into Sasha's life, but all she wanted was to find out something, what the lady had with her husband because it was like Bryan seemed to recognize her at the party, and once again, she had seen them together in a restaurant.Once Taylor was done going through it, she found out only one thing, and it was Sasha's last name. Nothing other than that seemed to be suspicious about Sasha. Taylor decided she wouldn't drop it until she speaks to Sasha in person. At first, it crossed her mind that it might be nothing but a simple business deal that she had with Bryan, but it was still so very hard to believe because she could clearly remember the look on Bryan's face, and it didn't seem like they were involved in any business deal.She rose to her feet, bearing in mind that it was already 2pm and it was time for a meeting.
"Alright, like I said before, I fought my way to purchase some important shares in the company, and now that it's ours, I think we would be able to have some rights. It's not just any shares, they're really important in the company, and they can guarantee us entrance in there." Sasha stated again.They had both been discussing a lot about the Mercidi family company and finally, they were ready. Bryan had not even expected Sasha would take all of this to this level, but thankfully she did, and they were so close to revealing the Mercidi family's dirty secrets to the world.He scanned the papers one more time and dropped it on the table,"This is so wonderful." He exclaimed.So all this time, Sasha had something like this up her sleeve and yet she was stalling to be able to spend more time with him. Bryan was even thankful that he had decided to end everything once and for all because that decision prompted Sasha's seriousness.Once they were done going through everything and making fur
"I'm pregnant?"The shock was still so very evident in Taylor's expression after she heard the doctor's words, and she still couldn't believe it. How come she was pregnant? Taylor had not planned this. She and Bryan weren't planning on having kids anytime soon and that was why she always made sure to take contraceptive pills after sexual intercourse with Bryan.Taylor scoffed again,"Doctor, that must be wrong, I need you to take the test again to confirm if I'm truly pregnant or not.""Is something wrong, Ms Wright? Is there anything you're afraid of?""I don't think I'm ready to have another baby, and the pills, I always made sure to take them."Understanding Taylor's words, doctor Emma took a seat close to Taylor so she could talk to her. "The result, it's 100% percent certain. You might have missed a day without knowing, we can't tell, but you should be aware that kids are a thing of joy, no matter how troublesome they can be or how hard it can be raising them."Taylor heaved deep
There was a light but painful groan.How long has it been? Six fucking months or more since Sebastian saw home? The Mercidi mansion where he literally grew up with Nathan, but it was different.In less than a year, Leo had changed everywhere into a goddamn place, and the look of things here made him so angry. If the mansion was in this shape, then he wondered what had happened to the company or what Leo would have done to the Mercidi family members who were always in support of Nathan.Something else changed.The statue of Mr Mercidi in the mansion was gone.Sebastian grunted as the thought of all this kept recurring in his mind. He was chained to the wall, and his knees where on the floor. This was more like a crucifixion to him, but no matter what, Sebastian wasn't going to give them what they wanted.The door opened, and someone walked right in. When Sebastian raised his head, he saw Leo. The bastard had his hands tucked into his pocket with a long smile attached to his face."Long
