Miss Independent (BWWM - Book # 1 / Complete)

Chapter 35 - It Is Over

Adrian's POV

"Brently, you take care of your son before I murder him!! I am spending the rest of the day with Bliss. And, if he has a problem with that, fire me too!!!"

I ran to my office to grab my bag and left to find Bliss.

"Mom, I called Julian, Jessica, and Andrea. They were not happy and asked where we were taking Bliss. I am not staying here either."

"Let them know we will think of somewhere. But right now, we need to catch up with Bliss downstairs."

***********

As soon as we stepped off the elevator, we saw Andrea leaving the building. Then, we saw Bliss trying to load her truck. The poor child struggled to find her keys; her eyes were puffy and red like a tomato. I AM GOING TO STRANGLE SHANE!!

"Bliss, honey, I am so sorry. I am at a loss for words." We stood there in the parking lot, hugging each other. "Give me your bag, and I'll find your keys."

She did, and I was able to find her keys.

"Why would he do that to me? I never did anything to Shane to treat me the way he did. At least I don't think I did anything."

"Sweetie, we will get to the bottom of this. I promise."

"Jessica said she will meet us at Bliss's house," Andrea says after reading a text message she received.

"Let's get you home, sweetie." As soon as I said that, I saw several news media vans pulling into the parking lot. Unbelievable! Bliss saw it, and we both quickly got in the truck.

Andrea pulled up, and Carly got in with her. Then we made our way to Bliss' home. I am sure the media are at her house if the media is here.

Brently's POV

"Shane, what in the hello did you just pull?! Why, for the love of me, did you hurt Bliss so coldly?!"

He just sat in her chair and said nothing. I am two seconds from choking the life out of him!

"Are you done?" Shane finally says as he gets out of Bliss' now old office. I grabbed Shane's arm before he could leave.

"I don't know what the heck is wrong with you, but you better figure it out."

Shane looked me up and down, yanked his arm out of my grip, and walked back to his office like nothing had happened.

I followed him, but he slammed the door in my face!

The rest of the executive team was now standing near Carly's desk.

"What just happened here?" Mercedes asked, puzzled.

"My child completely lost his marbles. Shane fired Bliss and called off the wedding in December. And, he had security escort Bliss out of the building."

"He did what?!" Mercedes then marched over to Shane's office and started banging on the door. "Shane Landes, open this door now!" She pounded on the door. We all heard Shane breaking glass.

Something is not right. Why is Shane not saying anything and breaking glass?

Adrian's POV

By the time we arrived at Bliss' house, the media was already camped in front of her house. And in the driveway stood an angry Layla, Ryan, Jessica, Austin, Julian, and Mason.

I stepped out first. "Someone help Bliss get her things out of the truck while I deal with the media."

"You all need to get away from here now! Do you want answers? I will gladly give you my son's addresses."
