Run, Girl (If You Can)

Keeley, a simple plain Jane, hits the jackpot. [No, she did not win the lottery!] At least that's what she thinks when she marries the most eligible bachelor in New York City: Aaron, a wealthy cold-hearted heartthrob and Tycoon. She wants to show the world that she deserves her position and bends over backward to fit into his world. One beautiful day, Aaron hands her a document asking her to sign. A divorce paper... "She's pregnant, and I need to take responsibility." That is the last thing that keeps on playing in her mind before she takes her last breath. Keeley dies, a 'hit and run'. [End of story. Not!] For some unexplainable reason, she wakes up as her younger self. A young high school girl, around the time when she first meets her cheating husband. Remembering her life with Aaron before she died, she makes a promise to herself that she will do everything in her power to avoid him at all costs. Will she be able to keep her promise when Aaron has his own plans as well, specifically for her? Or will she repeat history and fall for him once more... Why not journey with me and find out the truth behind their story. *Cover art by polkadottedscrunchie*

Whose Side Was He On?

Graydon didn't appear to be lying but that didn't necessarily mean anything. Assuming he was telling the truth…did that mean he really didn't have a romantic thing going on with Lacy? Then how had she ended up pregnant before?

Keeley thought about it. He also said he was focusing on his career. Mild words until you considered who they were coming from.

He was one of the premier businessmen in the city. If the tabloids could be believed, he had his fingers in a lot of pies.

So was he after Hale Investments or not? Based on the way he handled the share transfer document, she didn't think so. It was obvious he blackmailed the previous shareholder. If he had dirt on him already, he could have taken those shares himself any time.

He chose to give them to Aaron, which made her think he supported Aaron's takeover plan. Whose side was he on? Aaron's, Alistair's, or his own? How would Aaron taking over the company benefit him?
