Chapter 6

Carla Simpson

POV

When I woke up, I could smell, disinfectant and hear beeping sound when I opened my eyes Kyler was next to me holding my hand, he had fallen asleep. in a chair with his head on my hand. I am scared of waking him, so I try my best to lay still, he looked exhausted, he looked like he needed his sleep. A few minutes later my aunt walks in with Nikita and the door opening, which wakes Kyler, when he opens, his eyes dart to the door and then his eyes land on me. He literally jumps for joy and starts kissing me forehead and starts hugging me. It is amazing how safe I feel with him how amazing I feel knowing he is there with me. I look around confused. Why was I in the hospital? The last thing I remember is going to the hotel? Why was I in the hospital and why did my stomach hurt as though I have been punched the gut.

"What happened, why am I in the hospital?" I ask Kyler

Everyone is looking at me weird. Just then Kyler gets a phone call and excuses himself he is not far so I can hear him shouting someone on the phone and I hear my name and my uncle's name. I hear him screaming on the phone that they better find him now or there will be more than one funeral today. Funeral? What the hell who died? Someone died? I do not understand.

I look at my aunt and sister confused. They just shrug their shoulders. As if they did not know what is going on.

“I am so glad you are okay Carla, you scared me there for a second. When Aaron called me. I did not know what to think. When he said you would need surgery, I broke out in tears.” My aunt says as she hugs me.

“I don’t understand why would I need surgery? Did something?” I ask. Soon after Kyler walks back into, I can see he is upset.

“What is going on? Why did something happen to Uncle Sam?” I ask him.

he sighs “I will tell you, but promise me you will not freak out, okay? The doctor says not to stress you” tells me.

I nod.

Kyler looks at my aunt and asks my aunt and Nikita to leave.

They nod and leave the room

"Kyler what happened? You are scaring me..." I say trying to sit up, but the pain in my stomach stops me

"Carla you were poisoned" he says softly

"Poisoned? who would poison me?" I ask shocked. Who would poison me?

He sits down on my bed and holds my hand.

"I found out who did it I don't think they counted on you being with me all day. and I do not think I can tell you did it." he says seriously

“It is not one of your exes, right? No ex-girlfriend is coming after me?” I try to lighten the mood.

“There is no ex-girlfriend there’s only you” he says and the look in his eyes makes me believe him.

“Then why won’t you tell me who did this to me?” I ask him

“Because I don’t want your feeling hurt” he says, it tears at my heart strings that he cares for me dearly after knowing me for two days only. But I needed to know who dared to hurt me, to come after me in this way. This is college all over again.

"Kyler you better tell me right now who did this to me" I was not joking around anymore this was my life we are talking about.

Kyler nods. He holds my hand tighter. "Carla it was Samuel Simpson. Your Uncle" he says

I did not want to breakdown or show how scared I was right now. I started panicking why would my uncle do this to me. was he behind the k********g as well? Does that mean Nikita’s life is also in danger? What if he hurts her? I was not going to be weak; I had been weak my whole like. I was old enough to take care of myself. and if my uncle was coming after me. I was going to come after him too. I was not going to take this lying down. I had learnt from a young age how to hide my emotions

"So having dinner with him last night was a bad idea?" I joke

"Carla how can you be so calm?" He looks at me with a concerned expression on his face

"Don't worry about me just promise me that my aunt, uncle, my cousin and Nikita will be safe. And I do not have to worry I got you to protect me" With that I give him a smile, I pull his hand to me, and I kiss his hand.

After that we keep talking about our engagement announcement and plans for our wedding, after that we spoke about work. we fell asleep together, in each other’s embrace.

The next morning, a phone call woke me from my slumber. Kyler's still asleep beside me, it is his phone. I pick up his phone from the table beside the bed. I see it is his assistant calling. I answer the phone, before I could say anything his assistant starts reporting

"Sir I found Mr. Simpson he wants the company he says it belongs to him and also he is the reason for Miss Simpson's parents’ deaths. Sir do you have any orders? how do you want to handle this?" She asks

Right now, I cannot speak I do not know what to do my family was destroyed because of a damn company I am so angry right now, I almost said kill him. he does not deserve to live he does not even deserve prison. He should rot in hell for all I f*****g care. I do not know how but when Kyler put, his arm around me and put his head on my shoulder I felt a little better. I have never had that feeling before. Having someone calm your inner peace. Having someone calm your thoughts. I take a deep breath and speak

"Kyler is asleep right now... I will have him call you once he wakes up"

A few hours later Kyler wakes up. He calls his assistant to bring him a change of clothes. I tell him about the phone call, and he asks me what I want to do about my uncle. If we do not do anything he might actually kill me, right now I'm actually really pissed off because my mom and dad were killed by his own brother because he wants the company, greed to my family away from me. He wants to steal my father’s hard work then he has another thing coming for him. There was no way in hell I was going to let him get the company now.

Then I remembered something important I was supposed to be in the plane when the accident happened but because I wanted to sleep at my aunt’s house and my mother dropped me at my aunt’s place on their way to the airport. My mom was 8 months pregnant with my brother then. So, he killed my brother as well. I never think about that day but right now it hurts. It hurts really bad. Thinking about them hurts. Not having my parents at my graduation, I did not have my mother talk to me about my first period. I did not have my father there warning me about boys and to stay away from them.

"Carla, I have an idea you might not like it but this way we can get your uncle out of the company for good. And get him arrested" Kyler says bringing me out of my thoughts

"What is it?" I ask him

"Let us put Nikita in your place for the next month. She looks exactly like you, if people do not know you, there are some differences between the two of you but it is not major differences. I promise to keep her safe. I will always have a bodyguard with her and also food Will be given by us. And in this time, you will stay at my villa with me, so I know you safe."

"Kyler is this your way of getting me to live with you?" I joke

He grins...

"Kyler is this safe? I just got Nikita in my life I cannot lose her again" I ask him

"Baby trust me, everything will be okay" he promises me

"Okay I trust you." I nod.

“This way your uncle will think his plan failed and he will try harder, and he is bound to make a mistake. And when he does, we will be there to catch him in the act.” Kyler explains

I nod.

With that Kyler Calls Nikita in and explains the situation to her she agrees, and Ky explains to her that she cannot eat anything in the company also she has to act like a CEO for a month. I ask why a month. He says it is because he does not want to marry Nikita, he wants to marry me. So, he needs to have this sorted out before that. He pulls me into a hug, he then put small kisses all over my face in the cutest way. No man has ever been this sweet to me, no man has ever put their life on hold for me before. But Kyler did not even blink when he did that for me.

I know I just met this guy, but I know him, I know I can trust him with my life and with my heart, I believe I can spend the rest of my life with him. I believe I will be happy with him.

I do not know what I did in my past life to deserve a man like Kyler. But I am thankful for the blessing that is Kyler. Kyler deserves the world, and I would move heaven and earth to give it to him. I do not deserve a good guy like Kyler. I know it is still soon, but I know I love Kyler. I know what I feel for him is not puppy love and I know I do not just like Kyler, what I feel for him is so much more than just like. He is the man I love...

I cannot explain the way I feel for a man I just met but there is something about him that pulls all my heart strings... It has nothing to do with his looks and everything to do with his heart... He might just be the man I grew old with. He might be the man who father’s my children. He might just be my soulmate. The man who holds my hand when life slaps me in the face, when life turns it is back on me. He will weather the storm with me.
