Demon CEO's Hidden Love: Mr Grayson Stole Me From My Abusive Husband-Chapter 92: Always

Brooke sighed at the text on her phone from Sadie, they had scheduled to meet the next day to discuss everything that had been happening to Sadie and Luther’s imprisonment.

The driver pulled over at the mansion, where Hannah and Thane’s team were lined up waiting to greet her.

She inhaled sharply, then slowly alighted the vehicle. Considering they were around, she figured that he must be too.

And in all honesty, she was afraid to face him.

"What?!" Hannah cried out once she heard what had happened earlier. "Damien is such a bastard!"

Brooke forced a smile, "No, he was right. I’m still too inexperienced to star in a movie as the female lead." She responded, looking over the rest of his team, searching for Thane.

Hannah sighed, "You worked so hard! You deserve the role-"

Jess piped up, "I think this is good too. Mr Grayson allowed me to take a glance at the script and I won’t lie, it would be tasking for Miss Brooke to play the role with her prosthetic. It requires too much physical movements, and she’s not used to it yet."

Brooke smiled weakly, "That’s right. I’m just glad that all of your hard work wasn’t put to waste." She said, then advanced slowly to the elevator.

Danny parted his lips to say something, but his brother held him back and shook his head, signalling it wasn’t the right time to bring it up. Jess caught the exchange and sighed, she knew what they wanted to bring up, but judging by the look on Brooke’s face, it was best not to bring it up.

After all, they were still recovering from the recent shock from hearing the news.

Brooke stepped into the elevator and passed them a wave, "I’ll head up to relax, I’m sorry for troubling everyone-"

Hannah whimpered, "But you never did-" her words were cut short when the elevator doors joined together, shutting Brooke out.

The elevator arrived at the top floor in seconds. She gulped hard when she approached their bedroom and heard Thane’s voice inside.

She didn’t want to face him, but she knew there was no avoiding it. Inhaling sharply, she opened the door and stepped inside, her heart pounding loudly in her chest.

"I’ll call you back." Thane said into the phone, then disconnected the call. He tossed his phone on the bed and lifted his gaze to meet Brooke’s. A smile played on his lips and his gaze softened when he laid eyes on her.

In turn, the smile etched on Brooke’s face instantly crumbled, as she ran messily towards Thane, and embraced him tightly. With her face buried in his chest, she sobbed into the hug, inhaling his calming scent.

"What is wrong with me? Why am I just so useless? Why am I always helpless?" She sobbed, letting her tears dampen his shirt.

"Why can’t I do anything for myself? Why can’t I ever fight for the things I want? What’s wrong with-" Her voice cracked towards the end, as her tears drowned the words coming out of her.

Thane’s hand fell on her head, gently patting it, whilst his other hand wrapped itself tightly around her waist, securing her in his embrace.

Brooke went on, "I wanted the role so badly, but I couldn’t fight for it, I just keep ruining everything because of how weak I am. I’m sick and tired of giving everything up, I’m just so fed up with myself! I hate myself so much!"

Thane didn’t say a word in response, he just held her in his arms until she could no longer voice out her feelings.

Once she had calmed down, he led her to the bed, and tucked her in. He got up to make her something to eat, but she held him by the sleeve, and caught his gaze with hers.

"Please, stay with me."

He casted a gentle gaze on her, "Always."

In response, Thane got into bed with her, and held her tightly, spooning her, until she fell asleep in his arms.

"Cassie! You fucking-" Luther ran his fingers through his hair, "How could you-" he clicked his tongue, finding the words to say.

Cassie sniffled, "Daddy, I did this for you! For us! For the company!"

"No! Because if you had the company in mind, you never would’ve sold yours and your mother’s shares!" He turned to Serena, who looked as pale as a ghost.

"And you?! Why the hell did you let her do this?! What sort of mother are you?!" He snapped at her.

Serena who didn’t fully understand why he was angry frightfully answered, "I p-panicked! You were in jail, and Ethan wasn’t answering-"

Luther banged his fist against the dining table, "You are both idiots! This is my business! I created it from scratch!" He got up, and pulled his phone from his pocket.

Serena burst into more tears, "Cassie! Do as your father says, we have to-"

Cassie sharply interjected, "Why is everyone blaming me? I did what was best, and don’t you dare talk to me like you didn’t benefit from this too mother." She pressed, forcing Serena into keeping quiet.

Scrolling through his contacts, Luther ordered, "Cassie, you’re going to come with me and introduce me to this heir! And then, you’ll return the money and buy back the shares!" freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

"What? No! He already paid us the money, and I’ve already spent some of it!" she retorted sharply, her focus on the nail job she just got done.

"I don’t care about that!" He shouted, but quickly regained his composure, "How much did you spend? I’ll pay it all back. But we’re getting the shares from him at any cost." He insisted.

Cassie bit her lip, ’He looks really serious about this. Shit! What do I do now? I’ve already spent two million out of it. If daddy finds out he’ll want to know what I used it on. Damn it! What can I do?’ she thought, sweating under her armpits, as she recalled what she had used the money for just last night...
