Chapter 95
Klay’s POV
:
I gritted my teeth as my eyes sharpened because of what I heard from my private investigator.
“What did you say?”

[M–Miss Kelly fled to another country as soon as I got to Russia, Mr. Carver. She fled back to her home country. The reason why I was unable to-]
“Shut up, you stupid bastard!” I angrily ended the call and gripped the neck of the bottle of alcohol in my
hand.
So, that’s it? The only way to make you resurface is to put your father’s favorite collection for auction? I’m glad I thought of that. If only I knew, I would’ve done it five years ago. Damn, babe! You’re making me so damn crazy! You are so fcking smart and that’s why I love you so much.
I laughed like a madman and drank straight from the bottle. You’ve been hiding from me for five long years. The chase is over, babe. You’re coming back to me tomorrow night.
I clenched my jaws. You can’t hide her from me anymore, Anderson. Her father is more important to her than anyone in this world. So she treasures his memories.
“KLAY!”
My forehead creased when Amanda barged in my room, trembling and anxious.
“K–Klay, someone followed me when I was in the mall. I–I think…I think someone’s here to kill me.”
I shot an eyebrow up. “No one wants to kill you more than I do. Oh! It must be your husband’s ghost. He came back to take you with him.”
She paled ridiculously. “Stop it, Klay! This is not funny.”
I pulled myself up and walked towards her. I grabbed her neck and stared at her face. “I’m not trying to be funny, Amanda. It must be your conscience eating you alive. The nightmare of what you did will hunt you down and will make you crazy…slowly…slowly…until you decide to slit your own throat.”
She sobbed and kneeled in front of me. “Help me, please… I will do everything you want.”
I laughed devilishly. “What can I gain from a leftover woman like you, Amanda? I already have a cunt to fck. I don’t need you anymore. Besides, if you die, everything will fall in my hands…this mansion and everything. You will take the fall…alone.”
“No, Klay! Please!”
“If you’re not brave enough to bear the consequences, you shouldn’t have killed that old man. He could still be useful to me but you ruined everything.”

I walked past her after pushing her to the floor. I slammed the door closed and walked out of that house while clenching my jaws. I took my phone out and dialed Emily’s number.
[What?]
“Get your feking cunt ready, bitch! Be sure to be lying naked when I get there.]
Just you wait, Kelly, babe. You will bounce back to me and you can’t do anything about it. You are for me. Only for me. I can even accept that bastard’s child. I’m the only one who can blindly accept another man’s child. So what else would you wish for?
***Pierce’s POV
“Attend the auction event,” dad said with authority but I didn’t move even an inch. We’re having a family dinner but I don’t even have the appetite.
After our argument five years ago, I lost my hope of making my father proud of me. I don’t care what he thinks of me anymore. I will do whatever I want and will not expect anything from him.
“Did you hear me, Pierce?”
“I heard you loud and clear,” I said lazily and lifted my face. “It’s just that I don’t care.”
“Son!”
“You disrespectful bastard!”
“Don’t curse my grandson like that!” It was grams who’s sitting beside grandpa beside me.
“He’s disrespecting me, mom.”
“It’s your fault he lost his respect for you. If you want to be respected, you should’ve treated him with the same respect even when he’s just your son.”
I clenched my jaws and pulled myself up. “I’m done.”
“Pierce…” Grams gentle voice stopped me from walking out. “I support you with everything you do. You don’t have to think about us. Just do whatever will make you happy.”
“He’ll kill himself searching for Kelly in every corner of the world, mom. He’s too stubborn and doesn’t know when to stop.”
“Stop pushing your son to the edge of the cliff!” It was my grandfather.
I didn’t say anything. I just turned my back and walked away silently.
I don’t have the reason to attend the auction event, but I don’t have the reason to skip it either. To keep my mind busy, I decided to attend the event.
I was just sitting on the table silently while watching the event going on but a certain man who entered ruined my mood.

Klay Carver thinks he’s all high and mighty standing by the huge door. I can see the evil aura surrounding him and it’s making me even more angry.
It’s been five years and I still haven’t found Kelly. Klay Carver must be hiding her somewhere and the fact that Carver was doing that even when they have a kid is making me fuming mad.
No man in his right mind would do something like this.
I felt my patience getting so thin, so I had to leave for a while to get some fresh air. I went to the exit and lit a cigarette.
If it’s just me I would risk my own life and kill Klay Carver myself but I still have to find Kelly. I still don’t know where he’s hiding her. But once I rescued her, I didn’t think twice to fight Carver. I don’t care if he’s evil. I know justice will side with me.
After one stick of cigarette, I decided to go back inside. I’ll just stay a little longer before leaving.
My body felt so heavy as I walked back to the exit door but I bumped into something or someone. I immediately wrapped my arm around her waist as I realized she almost twisted her ankle. But as soon as I touched her waist, something inside me twisted.
Could it be…
I looked at her and I felt like my soul left my body. The familiar soft and beautiful face welcomed me and I felt my heart beating in a familiar rhythm again…after five long years.
