ALEXAI had thought of going for a press release regarding my business, as advised by Shirley, but when Noelle heard about it, she disagreed.“I think you shouldn’t at this moment, Alexa, especially now that you are not even sure that you can be stable until after your dad’s funeral,” Noelle had said.“Why?” I had asked.Then she had gone ahead to explain it to me.“The essence of a press release is to revive your business, and right now, that could make Donald Shell infuriated. It might draw his attention back to you, and you don’t want to be dealing with him while handling the business and planning your dad’s funeral,” Noelle had explained extensively.“What would you advice?” I had asked her.“You have only three clients now who are willing to continue with your brand. Right now, Donald Shell thinks he had conquered you, so allow him think that he has the last laugh while you discreetly concentrate on your clients. When all the dust dies down, you can go back to fighting for your b

MARK“I wish I was there to see the reaction on his face!” Vector said after I told him what transpired between Donald and me.He had returned from his short trip and as I narrated everything to Vector, his mouth fell open in shock.“His reaction is something I will never forget either,” I responded.We sat in my living room drinking to it. It felt like a celebration. It was nothing compared to what I wished to do to Donald Shell, but the fact that I was able to make him lose something that big and important made me feel deeply satisfied.“If I could picture it and frame it, I would, Vector, and I would hang it on my wall to look at it every single day,” I added.“I would love that too!” Vector said.He was equally happy.Vector knew just how evil Donald Shell was and the atrocities he had committed in Paris. He wanted Donald pulled to the ground as much as I wanted him to, and that was something to celebrate about. Having similar taste in enemies just made everything better.“And it

ALEXAI went to my dad’s room and locked myself up.I was still pissed off, but after spending some minutes alone, I also began to feel ashamed for acting that way.“I didn’t have to hurt Noelle in return simply because I was jealous,” I said to myself sadly. “It wasn’t Noelle’s fault that Mark never loved me. She only saw what I didn’t see because I was blinded by the love I had for him,” I added.However, coming out of my room immediately and speaking to Noelle just wasn’t something I was ready to do.I allowed my jealousy to get in the way and it just shouldn’t have been.To keep my mind off things that only made me feel sadder, I called Shirley.“Miss Alexa, I was just about to call you,” Shirley said.My heart skipped a beat.For a while now, the only news I had been getting about everything that concerned me was bad news, and the moment she said that, that was exactly what I feared.“What’s wrong, Shirley?” I asked her.I wasn’t even going to talk about the fact that she spoke t

MARKI thought that Mr. Porshia would change his mind about coming to see them after he learned the truth, but he didn’t, and so I left my company and went to meet them at the address that was sent to me.It was just a couple of minutes drive from my company, and in no time, I arrived there.Canon Dexter was still driving me because I hadn’t gotten over the shock of Mr. Devon’s revelation, so sitting back and trusting him to drive me to wherever I was headed was better than driving the car myself.As soon as I got there, I went to the lounge Mr. Porshia and Gregory had booked for themselves.“Would you like to have something to eat or drink?” Mr. Porshia asked after we had exchanged pleasantries and I sat down.“No, I am fine,” I responded.The reason I was here wasn’t for fun, or at least, not yet.“You and Alexa were never married?” Mr. Gregory asked me, going straight to the point.“We were, for five years, but we got divorced months before we came to Toronto,” I responded.I had a

ALEXATrue to her words, Noelle stayed by me. She even asked Nelson to bring over some of her clothes, because in her words, she didn’t want me out of her sight unless it was absolutely necessary.Nelson arrived, and just as he had said, his face wasn’t one I had seen or known before, but his paintings were all over Paris.“Hello, Alexa,” Nelson said.“Hello, Nelson,” I responded as we exchanged a warm handshake. “It is finally nice to meet you,” I added.I couldn’t deny that Nelson was handsome, and he had a very calming presence, which was a contrast to Noelle, and they seemed like a perfect fit.There was a slight bit of jealousy in me for Noelle, but I shook it off.Since I knew Noelle, she hadn’t really been in a good relationship, so it would be unfair of me to be jealous for her this one time…although, I also haven’t been in a relationship where I felt loved and wanted before.But now wasn’t the time to be thinking about anything like that.“And Noelle wouldn’t stop talking ab

MARKI had a very busy day at work, so much that I didn’t even have the time to think about anything else. The day before, Reyna had told me that there was nothing to bother about when it came to Alexa because the autopsy wasn’t out yet and she didn’t have any issues with her business at the moment. That enabled me to concentrate on work, especially as my next court case wasn’t until a couple of days.My phone rang, and I picked up almost immediately.“Hello, Mark Ronaldo,” I said into the phone professionally.I didn’t even really check properly to see or know who the caller was before taking the call, but as soon as I heard his thick voice, I knew he was the one instantly.“Mark,” Mr. Porshia said.Instantly, I stopped what I was doing and sat up straighter.“It’s so good to hear from you again,” he added.The last time Mr. Porshia and I had spoken was when he had called to make some confirmations because they were supposed to come to Paris for a contract with Silver Limited, but I

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
