While Karen, disguised as Selene walked into the bridal car along with Mrs Kord, the henchman assigned to abduct Selene phoned Elliot."It's done, I took the exit you explained and I'm driving towards the warehouse. I will keep her there till you want me to release her.""Good," satisfied, Elliot smiled "Keep an eye on her, don't you let her escape!""Of course,"Elliot ended the call and slipped his phone back into his pant. Staring at Willow-ridge through the French Window of the hotel he imagined himself in power. He imagined being called the CEO and legitimate son of the Kord's in a few hours from now.Deep in thoughts, he didn't hear her step out of the bathroom. Walking towards him in nothing but a towel, she ran her hands through his broad shoulders."Avery," her name was soft on his lips "We have to celebrate," he jerked her over his waist and began to kiss her hungrily. Her towel trampled to the ground as he carried her over to the bed.She giggled as she watched him pull off

"Dad," Elliot gasped as he immediately got up from the bed where he was asleep with Avery. He grabbed the sheets to cover his nakedness."Congratulations to you, you have lost the position of the CEO along with the inheritance!" Mr Kord barked in the background."W-what? D-dad!" he screamed but Mr Kord disconnected the line. Tossing his phone aside, Elliot rushed into the shower and was out of it in two minutes. He gathered his trousers and shirts and put them on quickly.Half-awake, Avery bit her lower lips as she admired Elliot's structured body, from his muscles to his abs and hairy chest. His wet hair added a domineering aura to him."Darling.." Avery pouted "Why are you leaving?""Something important came up," he lowered and kissed her forehead, ready to leave but she held him back and claimed his lips trying to lure him into another session but Elliot smacked her hands away."I said something important came up!" he huffed, grabbed his jacket and slammed the door shut. Avery wond

Elliot looked fierce and furious. He began to destroy the decorations as he yelled for Karen to step out. The guest ran helter-skelter and those who could find the exit in the midst of Elliot's madness left the mansion.He brought down the decor, smashed Karen and Kevin's pictures all over the palace and threw down the exquisite wine that stood on each and every table.Upon getting to the huge cake that stood in front of the couple's stand, he swayed his hand and the cake came tumbling down. Karen was hurt at the state of the mansion. Soon enough, Elliot approached her and grabbed her arm."Are you really that brave to go against me?!" he groaned."Let go!" Karen returned in the same fierce manner which only aggravated Elliot the more. He raised his hand in a bid to hit her when Zachary stepped in and pushed him down to the ground.In turn, Elliot picked up a broken bottle on the ground and smashed it on Zachary's head causing Karen to scream.With Zachary out of the way, Elliot heade

Despite setting her alarm, Karen woke up later than usual. She looked around but didn't find Kevin in the room. She gasped when she remembered that she had to go to work. Quickly, she raced into the bathroom and showered. She had fresh clothes in her closet and she knew that Mrs Kord had done this for her. Smiling, she picked a blue satin dress and a jacket with a heel to match before walking out of the room.She was greeted by the maids and guards. The breakfast table was empty."Strange," she muttered before leaving. On arrival at Daniel Corporations she was summoned in no time."I'm sorry, sir" she apologized to him but he did not even look at her. He picked up a business file and tossed it to her still stuck on his phone."We'll be signing a partnership agreement later today. You should-" as he spoke Karen noticed that he was trying hard not to meet her gaze."That's all for today," he finished "You're dismissed"But Karen remained where she stood. Without looking up, Daniel said

The truck driver pressed the brake just in time, however Karen was injured. Daniel was by her side almost immediately.He held her arm where a gash laid and yelled at her, "What were you thinking?! Have you gone crazy? If he hadn't stopped on time, he'd have crushed you to death!" On realizing the near accident, Kevin turned back. Rather than call for help, he looked down at Karen."What are you doing here?" he asked coldly "I didn't ask you to get in the way for me!""You're a bastard, you know that?" Daniel returned "She just saved your life and all you can do is act arrogant? Is that the way to treat your wife?""She's not my wife," Kevin uttered coldly "She knows that,"Karen knew that if she does not interfere, the two men might end up fighting and so she got up on her feet and winced. It seemed that she must have also sprained her ankle from the hit."It's fine," she said to both men "Let's get to business, Mr Daniel." without a glance at Kevin she turned and leaped her way bac
