Their End, My Beginning

Chapter 23



Chapter 23

*Ryder's POV

I have heard nothing from her after the funeral. I even hired a private investigator to let me know what

she was doing and after 2 days as I realised what I was doing was nothing but going to be a big

problem for me, I said to P.I not to stalk her anymore. I didn’t want any of my enemies to know about

her and use her against me. Also, knowing about her every single minute means it will be very hard for

me to not go to her, and hence I stopped my stalking.

After almost 1 and half week later Nicholas and Amanda came to my office requesting to see me. I

didn’t want to allow them in, but when I saw my receptionist acting very rudely to them; I lost my mind

no and I mean NO ONE TALKS TO ANYONE RELATED TO KAT IN ANY RUDE WAY. And so, I went

to talk to them. They mentioned about some computer that was there in the police station as an

evidence from the accident of Kat’s parents and that they wanted the laptop. It confused me when they

talked about getting the laptop as they needed it for them. But I cleared that confusion immediately

because I know Uncle Nick wouldn’t do anything to harm Kat. And I was even more confused when I

came to know Kat wasn’t aware of Amanda and Nicholas meeting me.

But that confusion was soon out of my mind when I got the call from Kat after 2 days after meeting with

them. I was in my office doing my work as usual and suddenly; I got a call from an unknown number,

and I picked up the phone thinking it was some ally of mine, but the moment I heard her sweet voice,

that I love so much, I hung up on her. I felt as if my dead heart was going to jump out of my chest.

I never hung up on her, though she had done that many times because of our stupid fights I never did. I

was very possessive of her because I always feared that other men would take her and I know she had

the same fear when it came to me; we were that madly in love with each other, you can call it toxic, but

that is our definition of being in love as cliché as it sounds. Because of that fear I never hung up on her,

thinking she would seek comfort from one of her male admirers, and because of the same reason she

called me back whenever she hung up on me. And another reason was, I always loved hearing her

voice, and it nagged me when I cut her off, and hence, I never did. Again, I was head over heals in love

with her

I don’t know what made me hung up, but I did and I am glad I did because if I hear anymore from her, I

don’t know what I will do next; I am sure the next minute I will be near her that was how much I was

missing her. I switched off my phone, knowing that she would call me back, and I didn’t want to repeat

the same mistake of answering the phone. And like I said, it nagged me the rest of the days until that

unfortunate day of meeting her again in her workplace.

I was leaning my head on the chair with my eyes closed as all these thoughts went through my mind

when I got the call from my secretary. “Mr. Scott, there is a Ms. Katherine Marshal from Simiona

Architects at the reception.”

“Let her in.” I said more like ordered her. And it satisfied me hearing a stuttered ok sir from her. I always

liked keeping my employees on their tip toes I believe that’s what gives you more satisfied result. I do

agree I have changed a lot. The old Ryder hated when people called him Mr. Scott because it made

him feel old, but this new Ryder only prefers being called Mr. Scott because it is a sign of respect for

him and I have worked my ass off that I deserve that respect. Also, the old Ryder didn’t like being

intimidated, he wanted people to feel he is no popular rich kid that I was in my high school, and treat

like their friend. Well, this Ryder loooove seeing people being intimidated by me, it makes my job

easier. Being intimidated means people fearing me, meaning they would not indulge me in their bullshit

praises and talks but rather get straight to the point.

And most importantly the old Ryder couldn’t see any woman in front of him no matter how beautiful

they are because all he sees is his love, his Kat, leave touching them he didn’t even give a look to

them. This new Ryder is no different, but the difference is that this Ryder if not in the presence of his

Kat even sleeps with those women, let alone look. So Yea I changed. I get what I want no matter

through which method, cheating/sleeping with women.

Do I regret it? Hell yes, cause that’s the only thing not letting me be with my Kat. Do I really regret

about it? No, because that got me where I am today. If there was some other way, I would have done it,

but being all goody wouldn’t have let me grow my business. Business is all about tricks and survival.

As I looked through the cctv cameras, I saw a woman with an exquisite beauty. Only one woman will

ever make me say she is beautiful. My soulmate, My Kat. My feelings for her are still the same. Will Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

that change me back? Will she after knowing the true me and knowing all the dangers of getting back

with me scare her off or stay with me? I have no idea, but all I know is the moment she enters my cabin

the journey of us is going to be a hell of a ride.
