Chapter: CHAPTER 168 TAMIKA'S POV
"And yeah... I'm going to pay him a surprise visit..." I decided that as I was on the phone with Julia while trying to get out of bed. "That would spice things up as we would get to make out in his office...""You are naughtier than you sound on the radio..." Julia remarked as she was laughing hard over the phone with some music playing in the background. Soon enough, I was in the car on my way to the office. I was sure that Dolph was bound to be happy if he saw me showing up there. I was happy that I was going to be putting a smile on his face at that point. The air was simply cool all around me and it felt real good, much cooler than it would feel on a normal day. There were a lot of things that had me feeling like I was about to have a great day as I was about to make it all happen right there and then. I wanted to recreate the memory of the night that we had in his office on the night of the anniversary. There were just too many things that had me feeling like that moment in hi

Chapter: CHAPTER 167 AMELIA's POV
"Hey, Dolphy..." I said as I was soon walking towards him with a walk that I made as seductive as possible. It seemed like I was about to face one of the most unimaginable moments that I would ever be in. Dolph was looking like a helpless prey in my hands at that point, as he was reeling from the effects of the drug he used to be so hung on. That moment had me wondering what exactly I would be up against in the next couple of moments as I was soon seeing the desires that were burning up in his eyes as he seemed to be sizing me up right at that moment. "What… are you doing here?" He sounded like he was out of breath like he was being eaten up slowly by a disease for which the only antidote to it was my body. There were a lot of things that had me feeling like I was about to be eaten whole. "Are you all right, Dolph...?" I asked, knowing that he was far from all right as he was looking to get his hands on me. "You don't look all right to me... you're looking like you are about to l

Chapter: CHAPTER 166 DOLPH's POV
"Hello, Tamika's husband…" Michael reminded me of the title my mom had given me back then as I was driving to my office. It was bad that I had been called that by my mother, but then I wasn't going to tolerate that at all from Michael. "Call me that again and you're fired…" I said jokingly as I soon had the casino in view. I didn't know what it was that made everything seem much more beautiful after I had gotten married. That was my first time stepping out of the house after I had gotten married, and it was feeling quite awesome. The look of that ring on my finger was quite exhilarating each time my eyes came to where the steering was. It was almost hard for me to understand how I had been able to get it all to work out to the point where I got married to Tamika. There had been a lot of hindrances, but somehow we were able to get out of everything. "So, what's up? How's the newer couple in town holding up?" Michael asked as he was sounding like he had just woken from a long, event

Chapter: CHAPTER 165 TAMIKA's POV
"Are you sure it's that important?" I just didn't know what it was that made me feel cynical about Dolph's decision to go along with the visit to the office. He had just gotten married two days ago and there he was, suddenly trying to head back to the office when he was meant to be in bed with his wife. "It's not like important important, but I won't take long, I promise. Just need to get some files and I will be back with you, hun…" Dolph said as he went on with dressing up. He was dressing casually to the office in a bid to convince me that he wasn't going to stay long. But I still wasn't convinced by any of it. There were just too many things that had me feeling like I couldn't make it past those few moments without him by my side. It was hard for me to understand what exactly I would be doing all alone in those few moments that I would be all alone in there. "Tamika…" he said, as he put his arms around me after turning away from the mirror that time around. "You know I'll miss

Chapter: CHAPTER 164 RANDY's POV
I couldn't deny how lonely it felt, having to watch everything happen from the confines of my solitude which was eating me up slowly as I was almost losing it from watching the clips of Tamika's wedding online. It was quite a hard sight to behold but it ailed me greatly as I believed that all of this was meant to have happened between me and Ava. But that bastard Dolph had taken my place by her side and it was simply the hardest thing to watch. I just couldn't stand the sight of it. The jealousy had me burning up badly like I was having a fever. At first, I wanted to act cool and pretend that I was happy for her and all of that. But the pretentious act wasn't working as I had thought she wouldn't be happy with anyone else besides me. There were a lot of things that had me feeling like I was being mocked and made fun of with all those pictures and videos of them floating all through the net. It felt like she was trying to show me how capable she was to find happiness in the arms of

Chapter: CHAPTER 163 DALE's POV
"But they just got married… how could you possibly be thinking of doing something that would cause them to split immediately? That's simply unfair." Amelia's words sounded like mere lip service to me as she almost sounded like she was just trying to show that she still had a conscience which was alive and breathing. Like she didn't want the same thing. "Quit acting like you were so happy with seeing that my brother had you replaced with her," I said, hitting her hard in places that I knew she wouldn't recover easily from. She was quite an egotistic one and I knew it was going to take way more than talk to get her to believe that the plan would be in her best interest as well. That would take a lot from me, but I didn't mind if that would be the case as long as she would end up agreeing to my request. It was hard for me to think of what I would be able to do at that point. "I understand, but still…" she paused a bit before restarting. "Are you going to make yourself come in betwee

Chapter: CJAPTER 33
Paths crossMila’s POV “What do I do now?” I asked myself as I tried to come up with a plan to tackle all these matters arising. I wasn't sure if Dolph had backed down completely or if he was planning something new.Secondly, I didn't know who this text was from. The only thing I had gotten straight was reuniting with my siblings. Outside that, I still had countless unanswered questions roaming in my mind. I dragged myself out of bed and headed for the shower. I needed a hot bath; maybe it could clear up the fog in my mind. The moment the steaming hot water touched my body, it brought a feeling of warmth and temporary relief to the aching thoughts that lay heavy in my mind.A few minutes later, I finished my refreshing shower and decided to do my hair. Sitting in front of the mirror, I saw the reflection of a broken soul, the unending cries for fulfillment and a better life. I sat there staring at my reflection, lost deeply in thoughts. But before I could pull myself out of such t

Evil mastermind. Hedda's POV“Mila doesn't belong in this world of fame and power,” I said as I sipped my glass of wine. This world of elegance, power, and fame was all mine. And I can't let anybody take this world away from me. Including that riffraff, Mila. As I scrolled through my phone, I felt immense satisfaction flow through me. “Mila Thomas stepped down from a lead role, due to a controversy swirl” the headlines read boldly on every blog on social media. The managers were so gullible, how easy it was to change their perception of Mila. And make them take such merciless actions towards her. I couldn't believe how fast she had risen to the ranks like she was some kind of movie star. It was irritating to even think about. “Pathetic!” I yelled, setting my phone aside. Mila was nothing but a stray that Jayden picked up and polished. Throwing her into the spotlight was not enough to hide her inferiority. Seeing her backing in Jayden attention was a slap on my face that I ref

Revealing secrets. Mila's POV After what felt like an eternity, my stomach reminded me with an aggressive growl that I hadn't eaten anything since that day. I needed to downstairs and eat something. The strength to leave my room came, making me drag my feet down the stairs. The moment I got downstairs, I was greeted by the smell of melted cheese and tomato paste. I scanned the kitchen and saw my siblings, Lila and Jett, with a half-empty box of pizza before them. Jett had a slice midair as I caught him about to stuff his face. “Hey Mila,” Lila said as she looked up. She was surprised to see me. She stared at my puffy eyes and tired expression. “Hey,” I said softly like I was normal, and I didn't cry myself to sleep. Jett turned to me with his mouth full of food. “Hey, do you want some pizza?” He offered, mumbling his words with a full mouth. I gave a small giggle, laughing at his innocence felt good even for a brief moment. “Sure,” I said with a small smile, as I sat close

Unfinished businessJayden’s POV“Jayden? Are you still there?” Mila’s voice cut through the hallway. I froze for a moment, my fist clenched tightly by my side.As I made my way down the hall, I realized that the past, which I had been trying to bury, was starting to come back to my present. Mila’s voice echoed in my head with the name I had tried not to think about for a long time. Hedda.With anger and fury, I stormed into my study room, slamming the door behind me. The room was a bit dark with only a desk lamp providing a dim illumination around the desk. I placed my hand on the desk, leaning into it and squeezing the edge tightly until my knuckles turned White.I repeatedly echoed Hedda’s name under my breath. Her name left a bitter taste in my mouth. One that I thought I would never imagine.My mind rests with numerous questions. Why now I asked myself. Hedda had never taken defeat, not in business or love; she had a way of gripping onto people's vulnerabilities until she got wha

More tears.Mila’s POV“No, I won't cry! Not in front of anyone” I yelled at myself as I slammed the front door of the mansion behind me, dashing to my upstairs to my room in a sprint. I need to be alone.“Hey Mila, you are back?” Lila’s voice floated from the other end of the living room, full of warmth and happiness.Without saying a word, entirely ignoring her, I bolted up the stairs. “Hey Mila, what's wrong?” She called out for the second time. I could feel the worry in her voice pulling at me, but I didn't stop.Jett appeared from a corner in the hallway, his face lighting up with a smile as soon as he saw me. But immediately he read the expression on my face, his smile faded into worry and fear. “Mila, are you okay?” He asked with a small voice filled with worry and anxiety.Despite his innocent plea, I didn't stop; I ignored him, too. I kept on walking to my room. I couldn't allow them to see the tears that were threatening to spill over. They were too young to share in my pain

Chapter: CHAPTER 28
Shattered Dreams Mila’s POV “Hello, Mila,” the director's voice came through the phone low and familiar, but it carried a different vibe; one could say it sounded distant and cautious. It lacked the usual warmth and welcoming feeling his voice carried. “Good evening, sir,” I said, keeping my voice steady and composed, but deep down, I wondered what was going on. “Is anything all right?” I asked. He gave a brief pause and this made my pulse quicken. “Mila,” he began. “I have some difficult news, we are stepping you down from the lead role,” he said with a sad tone. His words hit me hard. For a moment, I couldn't breathe or move. “What?” I said, my voice barely audible. “Why? What happened?” I added. “Lately, there has been some talk about you flying around, and those rumors ended up in the wrong ears. I mean the ears of the higher-ups, and they've decided you are no longer a good fit for the lead role” he explained, carefully choosing his words. Each word he voiced felt
