Chapter 39
Wait.
I thought my father's friend, Francis Ryland died months ago in Cuba. What the hell is going on that I'm not even aware of." I need to go." I say as I proceed to follow Genevieve and Francis. Todd pulls me back.
" Where are you going?"
" Let go of me." I grit out.
He nods and lets go of my hand.
" What do you even want from me? What do y'all want from me? You know I just witnessed a miracle today. I saw my father's old friend who's supposed to be dead."
" Who?"
" Francis fucking Ryland."
" That wasn't Francis. You are mistaking him for someone else." I roll my eyes and walk back into the tavern.
I need to get the hell out of here.
I stop by our table." I'm sick. I wanna go home." I say.
" Why? Something wrong? What did Todd say to you?" Diana asks .
" Nothing, I'm fine. I'm gonna call an Uber, you gu
Chapter 40 ♥ JUDAH'S POV ♥I feel terrible.Whatever shit I did, I don't have a choice. But I probably got it covered. It was out of my will, I didn't know what to do. I can't see her get hurt after seeing all the shit she passed through." We need to talk." Ransom said on the phone. I sat across from him. He knows I'm not happy with whatever shit he wanted to say." Where's the fucking heirloom Judah?"" I don't know what the fuck you're talking about."" You're playing smart ass huh? Do you wanna see her get hurt or what?"" I don't fucking know what you're talking about, Francis." I told him." You know I brought you in. Made you who you're today."" No shit, you didn't. You only made me worse. You made m
Chapter 41 ♥ SERENA'S POV ♥ " You know it's not his fault right?" Hero asks, leaning beside my kitchen door. " Yeah?" I chuckle sadly as I sit down. " You know most times, we're placed in this situation where we don't have a choice." " I believe every single person has a choice. It's about facing the consequences that come with the choices." " I agree though. Same time we're all fucked up. Him especially." Hero smiles apologetically and leaves. " And one more thing, if you choose to forgive him anytime soon, don't forgive him too easily. He needs to be dealt with a little." Hero says as he walks out. I chuckle sadly.Forgive him? Can I even forgive him?I can't do this. I take a deep breath, drawing back the tears as I pick up my phone. Aunt Adele is the first person I need to call. " Hey sweet cheeks. You're okay?" " I'm not." My voi
Chapter 42 ♥ SERENA'S POV ♥" 'Cause I'm leaving the country."God, no.He can't just do that to me.We can't just fight and have issues and he's planning to leave." Good luck then." I twist the doorknob but Judah stops me." Leave me the fuck alone!" I yell at him." You can't just hurt me and make me mad and then come back to me and ask me for forgiveness. It doesn't work like that, Judah. If you wanna go back to Italy, just go. Leave me alone. You're not human Judah. No matter what the reason is, I don't expect you to sedate me and give me to Francis fucking Ryland. You're mean Judah. I forgive you alright, get off my face." I push past him and storm inside the apartment, making sure I lock my door. I sniffle and sob. I hate that I feel this way." Fucking hell." I hear Judah mutter and a thumping sound follows. Did he pu
♥ EPILOGUE ♥ I squeal loudly as I run into the waves.Judah took me to a fucking island.A vacation I've always hoped for.An isolated island with a beautiful home and a man you're in love with by your side.Isn't that dream worthy? Judah sweeps me off my feet as we kiss.We were always kissing ever since we settled our differences. Aunt Adele went back to London the previous day before we came here. Diana threw a big party in her father's house that evening and we party the hell out. I talked with Todd and he apologized for whatever thing he did to me. Summer apologized too. Confessed she's been jealous of me all this while and she envied my life. My fucked up life. Judah took me to Italy and we spent a week there. We visited his neighborhood and it was fun, seriously. Seeing his childhood neighborhood and all that.
I look around my dad’s office as I stare right at the transparent display case. It holds our family's heirloom, a blue diamond. My parents value this a lot and they keep it hidden from the family’s reach. I read through the internet one day and found out this diamond is worth about one billion dollars.” Serena.” I gasp and turn around to see my older twin sister leaning against the door frame of my dad’s office.She crosses her arms and stares at me.” What you doing?” She asks as she smirks at me. Her Olive skin just got a tan. She wears a rip Jean shorts and a tank top.I shrug and look at the family heirloom.” The family’s heirloom. You
" Yes, daddy. That spot... Oh my God..." God!I brace my ears and scrunch my face. This is so embarrassing. I walk out of my bathroom and dry my hair. That didn't stop the moaning from my neighbor's house. It's been two weeks since I lost my parents and sister. My life's been a mess. Despite having Todd, it didn't change a thing. I lived in the mansion for a week and I couldn't take it. I always have countless nightmares of the murder scene and i ended up crying to sleep. I moved out the following week to this nice neighborhood to clear my mind off things. Not until the new neighbor came three days ago. He's always bringing in different women. I know that by their loud moans and different voices." Oh my God...Oh fuck." God this is so gross. Who moans like that? Of course I won't know. I've been running away from sex and I don't even know what it feels
I put up a barely genuine smile as I approach Todd’s table. The waitress won't stop smiling and displaying her products. What a slut. He didn’t even notice me since he is pretty occupied with a waitress. What am I doing here again? I clear my throat as the waitress jolts at once, including Todd. He looks caught off guard. ” Hey babe.” I fake a smile and look at the waitress. She quickly buttons the top buttons of her dress shirt and smiles at me. ” Did I interrupt something?” I choose to ask to ease the tension between them. ” Not really.” The waitress answers. I shake my head and sit in the booth across from Todd’s.
He wraps his arms around my waist and pulls me into his house and shuts his door. I slap his hands away from me as he smiles at me. Wow, his house is pretty. I really didn't expect this type of design and furniture from someone who rides a motorcycle. What is he? A rich guy who ran away from his family to live the type of life he wants? What does he even do for a living? " Damn. That top." He says and bites his lip, looking down at me. I follow his gaze and it lands right on my nipples that are poking through my tank top. He smiles and looks up at my face. " Fucking pervert." I mutter and cross my arms. " I
