Vivian’s POV“Today, we have gathered in holy matrimony to join two love birds, whose love could not be altered with the wave of time; Marie and Vale,” the priest started beautifully.I couldn’t stop smiling as I watched Marie and Mr. Vale, dressed to perfection: Marie in a white flowery down and Mr. Vale in black pair suits. Nancy wasn’t present, because she wasn’t invited, which was understandably so, even though they had all resolved things amicably. However, Bonnie, easy to forgive now that her mother had asked her to, was in attendance. Actually, she had flown in some days before, just so that she could have moments with her father too. I noticed that she was nice to me as well, and she even brought gifts for the triplets who would be coming to the world any time soon.Bonnie sat behind Syrus and I, squealing in delight.“This is the most beautiful wedding I have ever attended!” Bonnie whispered happily, but her voice was loud enough for us to hear her.Then Syrus turned to her

Vivian’s POVI sat on the patio just resting and thinking yet again about everything that had happened. This time around, my thoughts weren’t exactly filled with bitterness or anger or sadness. A lot had happened since Diana showed up here and hugged me. She had confessed that she was deeply hurt and begrudged, but after carefully thinking about it, and of course, discussing it with Marie, she had come to the realization that her brother had fooled her for years. While she had struggled and worked hard to achieve everything she had achieved, Leon had chosen to go through the illegal and seemingly wrong path, and she knew that he would have to face the consequences of his actions. Our conversation also brought me to the same resolution with Ted, and the rest of my family.The trial was held about three days ago. I couldn’t attend, because my due date was gradually drawing near, and deep down, I didn’t want to see Ted’s face and break down all over again. The drug lord, his men, along

Vivian’s POVEverything seemed to be happening in such a rush that it was all too much for me to handle. Syrus’s reappearance and his conscious efforts to win back my forgiveness and affection was also overwhelming.He had lived with Mr. Vale and Marie for over a week now, and he had not stopped persisting. Initially, I thought that he would have given up and run back to his company as he always did, but he hadn’t…yet. Syrus kept trying by words and in actions to prove that he was truly sorry, and I maintained the cold shoulders I gave to him, but still, he refused to relent. Syrus had been ordering flowers and notes for me every single day without fail. According to him, he wasn’t trying to buy my love and forgiveness with gifts, because he knew that I wasn’t that kind of woman, but flowers only indicated his genuineness and love for me, which was even why he wasn’t including any other gift. Also, his determination to restore his broken relationship with his father was evident, and

Syrus’s POVSyrus discovered that his father’s house was not as big as the mansion he grew up in, but it was a very homely and cozy bungalow. The moment he entered, he felt more at home and at peace more than he had ever been.“I will show you to your room,” Marie told Syrus as she led him to a room beside the room that Vivian was staying in.When they got into the room, Syrus was impressed at the neatness and warmth of the room.“Thank you, Marie,” Syrus told her deeply.“I am going to make some pasta and we will all eat at the dining table, so use this chance to rest and freshen up,” Marie said politely.She was about leaving when Syrus stopped her. “Do you think she will ever forgive me and talk to me?” Syrus asked.After he had made himself known as the extra traveller, he noticed that Vivian went cold. She had vehemently refused to share a seat with Syrus in the plane even though Mr. Vale had intentionally arranged the ticket in that format. Syrus could not deny that the hostili

Vivian’s POVBelinda and I hurried to the airport, because after all she had told me, I was afraid that Georgia might somehow know that I was in the city, and she would find a way to hurt me. I was heavily pregnant now, and if anything happened, I did not even have the strength to fight or defend myself.“I will come with you and wait for your employers until they get here. If anything were to happen, I don’t want you to ever have to face her alone,” Belinda said firmly when I tried to dissuade her from going with me to the airport.It wasn’t until we got to the airport safely that I became less worried. Also, even though I had wanted Belinda to return to her apartment initially, I was very grateful to have her here with me. We were able to get a safe place to sit and wait where the cops were always watching and patrolling about.“Do you want me to get you anything from the cafeteria?” Belinda asked when she noticed how weak and tired I was after we sat down.“No, I am fine. I was jus

Syrus’s POVSyrus drove home like a lunatic. He could barely wait to confront his mother for everything he just heard. His entire being was boiling with anger and rage.For years, his mother had lied to both him and Bonnie, and she had made them hate their father unjustly. More so, they had grown up without their father’s love and affection all because of her selfish and greedy desires! His mother was just as cruel and cunning as Georgia; there was literally no difference between them, and now, Syrus understood why she chose Georgia over Vivian. For all Syrus knew, evil always aligned with evil.“Damn, I have been such a fool to let Georgia, my mother, and the company come in between what Vivian and I shared,” Syrus said to himself painfully and regrettably.He wanted exactly what he saw between his father and Marie; love, loyalty, friendship, and companionship, and he did not want to enjoy that only when he was old. He had all that with Vivian, but he had ruined it. To Syrus, he beli

ALEXAThe moment I stepped into my apartment, my phone rang, and when I saw that it was Donald Shell, my shoulders sagged.I really didn’t want to speak to him right now.The only thing I wanted to do was to lie down and have a good rest, but then again, it dawned on me quickly that Donald and Noelle were very close, which meant that he could know a thing or two about her affair, unless she was equally being secretive with him.“Hi, Donald,” I said tiredly when I picked up his call.“You sound really tired,” Donald said when he heard my voice.I was truly tired, but sounding that tired was an obvious act.“I am exhausted. It has been a very hectic and busy day,” I told him.Donald Shell wouldn’t have been calling just for the sake of it, and I didn’t want him to make any offers, because I didn’t want to have to decline. He had been very nice to me lately, and I didn’t want to hurt him.Fortunately for me, the last time at his house hadn’t been totally awful even though I had felt disc

MARK“Pick up, Mark,” Vector encouraged me as I stared at the call.It was what I had been waiting for all day, and now that I was seeing it, I was too worried to even pick up. It was relieving that she was calling; it meant that she was alive, but what if it hadn’t gone well? What if she was calling to break some bad news to me?“Come on, Mark,” Vector urged.I sucked in my breath and tried to remind myself that I was a Ronaldo who shouldn’t be living under fear and worrying, and then I picked up.“Mr. Mark,” she said as soon as the call connected.The sound of her voice was a relief to me.“Mona, are you okay?” I asked her.“Yes, I am, and I just got into my apartment,” she responded.Again, I sighed with relief.Brent was right when he said that she would be so guarded that no harm would come to her even if Mr. Devon wanted to hurt her.“That’s fantastic,” I said. “How did it go?” I asked the most important question.“He believed me, Mr. Mark,” Mona responded, much to my relief.“A

MARKVector tried twice that day to get me to see the owner of Dancing Devils, but I refused. As much as I wanted to, I didn’t want to get more on Alexa’s nerves.Besides, Alexa still had her father, Mr. Silver. I, on the other hand, was all alone.Vector was here, and Brent’s paid services were also available, but I didn’t have another family that I could lean on, and my company was crumbling to the ground, which was the most important thing to me right now.Eventually, Vector gave up.“I guess I will just tell him that you are not interested in seeing him,” Vector said sourly.If he was trying to guilt-trip me into changing my mind, he was wrong. Right now, the only thing that mattered to me was finding out everything I needed to, and also ensuring that Mona was unharmed in all this.“Yes, do,” I stated firmly.“It’s just that Donald Shell is on the rampage of taking people’s hard work away from them, and no one seems to be able to stop him,” Vector said. “Worse, Alexa is going to

ALEXAThe meeting with Matty Farm went smoothly, and being that it was our first day officially, the startup was really good, and it already held promises of a good outcome.However, I still couldn’t stop thinking about the lie.After the meeting and exchanging of papers to work on, I introduced Matty Farm briefly to the staff members, and then made an agreement with him to involve them on our second day, which would be by the following week.“It was a great meeting, Matty Farm,” I told him when we were done.I was almost feeling embarrassed about my earlier accusation, especially seeing that Matty Farm was nothing but an honest man. There was just something about his integrity that reminded me of my dad. The only time I almost doubted him was when I ran into his at Donald Shell’s house, but he already gave an explanation for that.“Thank you, Alexa,” he said as we exchanged a formal handshake.“And about earlier, I didn’t mean to come at you like that,” I apologized.“There is nothin

MARK“Are you nervous?” Vector asked me.“No, I am not,” I told him.“But you didn’t go to your company today, and that can raise the same suspicion that we are trying to avoid,” Vector said.“I already called Mr. Devon and told him that I was feeling a little under the weather, and that I wouldn’t be coming in today,” I said. “That should cover up for something, right?” I asked him.I already told Brent that there was no way I could go to that company, see Mr. Devon’s face, and act all normal.I just couldn’t.If I tried to, I would end up ruining everything.Brent understood, and he had actually said the message would help to dissolve whatever suspicion that my abrupt and unannounced absence might have caused.Mona already agreed to do what was required of her, and I couldn’t help how worried and agitated I was about it. I was even more concerned about her safety right now than keeping Mr. Devon in the dark. All my life, I had been made to believe that I was a strong man who couldn

ALEXAI tried to get in touch with Noelle after Stacy Bandwit left, but all to no avail. The call kept going to voicemail.“Pick up the damn call, Noelle. This is freaking important, or at least, call me back,” I said and sent the voicemail to her.But I was still restless, and after trying over and over again, I called my secretary back into my office.“Where is Noelle’s vacation destination?” I asked her.“She didn’t mention,” she answered.“Is her tab in her office?” I asked.“Yes, ma’am, she left it there,” she answered again.“Get it for me, and hurry up,” I told her and she dashed out of my office.Noelle’s tab, just like mine, carried all her schedules, and I believed that I would be able to find something there, but when she brought it, there was nothing that could give me a clue as to where she could have done.All the schedules on the tab were centered around work, and absolutely nothing personal.“Gosh,” I lamented in frustration.Stacy didn’t seem like she was bluffing.Sh
