The Perfect Retribution Chapter Fifty Two
Justin’s POVI stood in front of the mirror, fixing my tie and admiring my sleek, shiny hair that was neatly pulled back. It was just 8 am, and I was ready to head back to work after a week of working from home. The doctor had advised me to take plenty of bed rest to heal my wound quickly.I grabbed my phone and checked my messages, finding a bunch of unread texts from various people. However, there was no reply from the one person I was eagerly waiting to hear from. I had sent a message to Ayva three days ago, and even though it showed that she had read it, she hadn't responded. I couldn't help but wonder if she was upset with me, perhaps because of what happened with my mom. It was all my fault.The memory of that day at the hospital replayed in my mind as I thought about my last conversation with my mom in the hospital room."I will never allow you to be with that woman, over my dead body! If you insist on being with her, just know that you will never see me again. I'll disown you
The Perfect Retribution Chapter Fifty Three
Justin’s POV"The birthday boy is here, so let's kick off this freaking party!" Jace's voice blasted through the speakers as soon as I stepped into the venue of my 30th birthday party, grabbing everyone's attention. I was escorted to the highest podium in the room, where a majestic, throne-like chair awaited me. The space was decked out with drinks and glasses, lining both sides of the chair. As I settled into my seat, the crowd erupted in cheers, and I smirked down at them. From up on that platform, I felt like a fucking king.I arrived at the venue two hours late because my mom insisted I attend the birthday dinner my "mother-in-law" had organized for me. I had to scarf down my food and make a quick exit to ensure I made it to my party before midnight. It was after all a double celebration: my birthday, and New Year’s Eve. Bella had asked if she could come with me, but I flat-out refused. I didn't want someone tagging along and cramping my style, scaring off all the beautiful ladies
The Perfect Retribution Chapter Fifty Four
Justin’s POVI was mad at myself. I hated myself that I’d yet again failed to keep the promise I made. I’d failed to forget her like I’d promised to, as every memory I’d tried to keep away had now come rushing back in. And yet, I hated myself even more for not recognizing it was her until she left. I should have known from her voice. I should have known from her laughs. I should have known from her eyes. I should have known from her lips but no, I didn’t. Two years wasn’t enough time to forget everything about a person you’d loved all my life, so why didn’t I notice she was the one? Did she also not realize that it was me behind the mask? Or was she aware of it and chose not to let me know? Did she even think of me during those two years? Or unlike me, had she forgotten about me completely? If so, who invited her to my party? And why the hell did she decide to come? Who was her date? Who did she come with?I had so many questions with no answers in sight. “Let’s get you home, budd
The Perfect Retribution Chapter Fifty Five
Justin’s POVI stirred awake, regaining consciousness as the morning sun seeped in through the windows. I tried to open my eyes but couldn’t because of the ray of blinding sunlight directly shining in my eyes. “I should have shut the windows before going to bed.” I inwardly reprimanded myself. Suddenly a thought came to my head. “How the hell did I get in my room?” The last thing I remembered was getting a ride home from Jace and then going downstairs to the wine cellar and then afterward everything was blank. A dull ache throbbed in my head, reminding me of the consequences of my excessive drinking. ‘Why the hell did I have to go overboard?’ I inwardly groaned, regretting my choices from the night before.And then slowly I started to remember. It had been my birthday and the last person I’d expected to see had attended. My eyes remained closed because I was too lazy to open them, but when I felt a hand suddenly swing around my waist, I froze, and my eyes snapped open immediatel
The Perfect Retribution Chapter Fifty Six
Ayva’s POV"Liv, where's he at? Is he alright?"I glanced over at Olivia, who was sitting in the hospital waiting room with her head down, and her face resting in her hands. As soon as she heard my voice, she lifted her head, revealing red and puffy eyes from hours of crying. It was heartbreaking to see Olivia so visibly distraught, with her disheveled hair, swollen face, and mismatched clothes."Ayva," she sobbed, rising to her feet, and I immediately pulled her into a hug. "My baby's not doing well." She cried into my shoulder.I met Olivia a few weeks after I moved to New York. I was trying to decide on a drink at a local coffee shop when she unexpectedly chimed in and recommended one to me. It ended up turning out to be a favorite of mine, and now I order it every time I visited that shop. We crossed paths again on my first day at a fashion company, where we ended up sharing a workspace. That brought us closer together, and we became inseparable.Olivia was the reason I was in LA.
The Perfect Retribution Chapter Fifty Seven
Ayva’s POVI couldn't find my necklace, not that day or the day after. I tried retracing my steps, hoping to remember when I lost it, but it was all in vain. The last time I remembered having it was at that party, which means the only place I could have lost it was in the taxi I took to the hospital. It made me realize that I might have lost it forever.As that thought sank in, tears welled up in my eyes, but I quickly fought them back. That necklace had been a part of me for two years, providing comfort and support whenever I wasn't feeling well. And now, I had lost it. While I could easily get a new necklace like that, I knew it wouldn't hold the same sentimental value.Liam was still at the hospital, although he was starting to get better. He was able to have a short conversation with Olivia earlier that morning. After he fell asleep, I asked Olivia to go home and freshen up while I stayed to watch over him.“Thank you so much Ayva, you are the best.” She’d said, even though what I
The Perfect Retribution Chapter Fifty Eight
Justin’s POVI was mad and cranky. Aside from the fact that I barely got any sleep because Bri wouldn’t stop crying all night, I also found out that Jake had been released from prison after only serving two years of jail time. After everything he’d done, he only got two years. Clarkson had woken up from a coma a few weeks ago and after getting interrogated by the police, he gave an entirely different story. He even claimed that Jake was never on the rooftop that night, and that immediately ruled Jake innocent of those charges. And so all he was charged for was kidnap and assault. And yet he only served for two years all thanks to my dad. I would never understand why Frederick had decided to help a man who’d harmed his son get a shorter jail time.When Bella asked me for a ride that morning, I’d told her no, because I had other plans that day than be her chauffeur but when I found out that she wasn’t just going anywhere but the hospital because Bri had a fever, I cancelled my plans
The Perfect Retribution Chapter Fifty Nine
Justin’s POVWas?Ayva was in love with me? How did I never know that he feelings for me were than strong? But, was that enough of a reason for her to up and leave? It didn't make any sense to me."I... I don't get it," I stammered, my mind spinning with confusion. "I mean, was that enough for you to walk away like that?""I needed space. I needed it for myself. And I didn't want to mess up what you had with Bella," she explained."But it doesn't add up," I protested, trying to make sense of it all. "You were in love with me, and instead of telling me, you vanished into thin air and cut off contact with everyone?""And what would telling you have changed?" she snapped, her frustration evident. "Let's not forget that you turned me down the one time I tried to open up about my feelings. You were engaged, so there was no hope for me, and I couldn't keep hanging around, hoping for something that wasn't gonna happen. I did what I thought was best for me, and you don't get to question that
