Chapter: Ryan Winton Today was Wednesday, and I only had to survive Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday before finally escaping this suffocating house by Monday. "You've got this," I whispered to my reflection in the bathroom mirror, mustering all the encouragement I could.It was 7:30 and I had just finished taking my bath and was still wrapped up in a towel. I Stepped out of the bathroom to the bedroom. Andrew wasn't in the room cause as usual he had gone out for his morning run.My hair was dripping wet and I tried to hasten the drying process with another towel when I suddenly heard the door open.I thought it was Andrew so I didn't flinch and kept drying my hair. I didn't even bother turning around because I assumed it was definitely him I mean who else would walk into the room without knocking first."How was your run?" I casually asked as I kept trying to dry my hair with the towel. When he didn't answer I turned around suspecting something was wrong.Imagine the dread and the shock that gripped

Chapter: Siren "Don't be mad, Siren. It's not his fault; I asked him to meet me here," Ryan smoothly interjected, using that nickname he'd stuck me with since the day Andrew introduced us.Since the day he pulled that fake first-meeting stunt. I swallowed, my anger doing a disappearing act.I didn't want anything to do with Ryan, so I whipped around to face Andrew. "I'm leaving. You better follow me unless you want a divorce." I laid down the ultimatum and stomped out.Andrew hesitated, torn between explaining and sticking around. "Wait, Sarah," he called, but I didn't give him the satisfaction of a glance. The night air hit me as I stormed out of the club, frustration and confusion swirling in my head.Reaching the car, Andrew caught up and grabbed my arm."Honey, just calm down," he urged, his grip firm but gentle."Calm down?" I asked in disbelief turning to him, our faces mere inches apart. "Andrew, you freaking left me all by myself after your family belittled mine at dinner. And now you have t

Chapter: Nightclub I slowly walked back to my room and grabbed my phone, trying to call Andrew, but he wasn't answering. That was very unusual because he always answered my calls. What was going on? Was he okay? And mostly, where the heck was he?I sighed in frustration, but then a spark of realization hit me—I could track his phone. Why hadn't I thought of it sooner? As the app displayed his location, a mix of anger and anxiety consumed me.A nightclub? Seriously? What the heck... How could he do this? My family gets mistreated by his, and he left me to go to a club. Oh no, he didn't.I grabbed a jacket, threw on black boots, and practically stomped out of the room. As fate would have it, I nearly collided with Cassie, my sister-in-law."Whoa, where's the fire?" she asked, puzzled."I'm off to meet your brother, who ditched me and is currently partying it up at a nightclub," I spat, showing her Andrew's location."Yikes, that looks bad, but I'm sure he's just getting some air. This house can be stiflin

Chapter: All Alone"And once again things begin with a bang in this horride household." Rose said to mum and I as we made our way up the stairs."Indeed. The Miners never fail to disappointment." My Mum added a touch of sadness in her voice. It made my heart ache."Mum I'm so sorry. You made such a long flight here only to get treated this way." "Oh..darling. I didn't make the flight for them I made it for you. So don't blame yourself." Mum said gently cupping my face."I just wish things were different." I replied. Honestly wishing my in-laws were nice people but I'm stuck with the Miners as in-laws."I know baby. But I'm afraid they aren't very good people and I feel like it's best if I and your sister spend the next few days at a hotel." My mum answered totally shocking me."A hotel?" I asked in disbelief turning to look at Rose who shrugged."I'm sorry sis. But mum's right we can't stay here." Rose said sadly. "But we'll be here for the anniversary party on Sunday." She added as if it would make m

Dinner wasn't served yet but everyone was sitted."I'm glad you finally pleased us with your presence, Sarah." I heard my mother in law say, venom lacing her words.Andrew walked in as well and Immediately went over to meet my mum and sister Rose. He smiled as they exchanged greetings.I went over to sit next to my sister who immediately lean over and whispered to me. "Your lips are a bit swollen. What were you up too."I looked at her with a shocked expression as my face turn red in embarrassment then pushed her away playfully. I knew the Miners all had there eyes on us. Any slight show off happiness would be used against us later on."Did anyone miss me?" I heard a familiar voice say and every one in the dinning room turned towards the entrance.Standing there was Cassie Miner Andrew and Casandra's younger sister."Oh my darling babygirl." Elena said

Chapter: ShowerI spent the entire day with my mum and Rose. We went to different tourist centres in London, we had a blast but I was extremly tired by the time we got home.Andrew still wasn't back by then so I decided to take a shower.I took off my clothes and walked into the bathroom.A hot shower after a stressful day can be incredibly relaxing. The warm water helped soothe all my tense muscles and melted away my stress. Plus, the steam helped clear my mind and gave me a moment to relax and reset.I stayed really still for a while. Until I felt a touch. I jolted then immediately turned around. It was Andrew he was in the shower with me. He looked absolutely stunning when wet! His hair looked sleek and shiny, his eyes sparkle like the ocean, and his skin glistens in the light. He looked like a work of art!He wrapped his arms around my waist as the warm water cascaded down our bodies. I looked into his eyes, feeling overwhelmed with love and admiration. There was no words needed at this moment.Wi

Chapter: Chapter 68: Decisions "I love you sister very much. Whether you believe it or not is up to you." Drake Lockman told Jake Sexianna brother. "You expect me to believe that you love my sister? I know you were just using her to get inside information about Mr Nobody." Jake said not believing a word Drake was saying. The man didn't look like a person worth trusting. Jake wondered how Sexianna fell for his tricks."She volunteered to all that. I didn't force her.""She said you told her that Jeremy killed your brother." "He did.""And why should I believe that?" "Believe it or not. It is the truth. And you don't have to worry, I'm not asking for your help. I'm only asking you to stay out of my way. If not for your sister I would have probably killed you for just working for that bastard. Just don't interfere in my business and you'll be fine."Jake scoffed. " I could just walk up to him and tell him everything." "Yes. You could. But your sister has already done that." Drake Lockman said with an evil smirk

Chapter: Chapter 67: Schemes Chapter 67: SchemesJack was silent. He didn't know what to say or how to respond. His sister was really asking him to pick sides. He was still so confused on how it got to this."Can you even hear yourself?" Jake asked as he walked away from Sexianna. "Your asking me to stab Mr Nobody in the back. Do you have any idea what he could do to us! What he could do to you if he finds out that you've been a traitor all this time." Jake said as he ran his hands through his hair in frustration."He can't do anymore to us not while Drake is around. I promise you'll always have his protection. You just have...""No I can't." Jake cut Sexianna off. "What your asking me to do is just to much. You have no Idea who your messing with. Sexianna I can't believe you put yourself in the middle of all this." "I was always in the middle I didn't put myself there. Just meet him maybe then you'll understand." Sexianna cried."Why did you do all this Anna. You didn't even tell all this time." Jake said sa

Irene asked."Oh" Avery said placing her cutleries on the table."Well mum, nothing much, l usually spend all my time working in the lab. That's basically my life." Avery said with a shrug."Sweetheart you know that not a healthy way of living. You have to get out and have fun see places and meet new people." "No mum, please don't start again."

But let me remind you that last year after hosting that event you became bankrupt." Madison said. Her sister was such a kind person that she would use all her income on others and then live a very uncomfortable life which she Madison did not agree to. As much as she wanted to take care of others she should also take good care of herself."Yeah, Madison is right Gloria. Those global events cost a lot of money, and your always the one sponsoring it. Why not turn it into a charity event instead ??" Avery asked. "Because l don't mind sponsoring it. I don't know why you guys are complaining when I'm not. I'm fine."Whatever, do what su
