"Intentions do not insulate us from the consequences of our actions."
-Jon D. Harrison-
***
There was always a consequence for everything. Even though it might not show up now at this moment, you would never know when karma would bite you in the face for the sins and crimes you committed in the past. It was supposed to be Greta’s last day at the hospital because the doctor told everyone her health was becoming better and she could go home.
Life in hospital was incredibly boring because all a patient could do was to lie down on the bed and did absolutely nothing. Even with company around it could still end up being incredibly boring and the old woman felt the same way even though her first son and daughter in law, better known as Cynthia’s parents were accompanying her simply because they wanted to gain back her favor after their daughter did the unforgivable.
Since Greta had disowned Cynthia, she also had somew

"I think a hero is any person really intent on making this a better place for all people."-Maya Angelou-***Everyone was still trying to cope with the shock of what had just happened. They still refused to believe that Vian had become the leader of the household, considering her young age and ordinary family background, it was unlikely that she was the one chosen. The probability was so low that not even her parents were present."Once again, it is the decision of the late Madame Sterling. There is nothing I can do about it." The lawyer calmly said hoping he could just get out of there as soon as possible. The longer he stayed there the more chaos there would be.He faced Vian and handed her over a few documents she needed to sign as an official mark of her being the inheritor of the family fortune. Vian looked a bit hesitant at first since she herself still could not believe it but in the end, she grabbed a pen and sign
"Above all else, the devil cannot stand to be mocked."-C.S Lewis-***The shot sound was muffled but it was loud enough for the security to notice, besides the room had a CCTV so the hotel staff could see what was going on and they immediately called the police to come, but soon they would realize a police would not be needed as the door slammed open and two men in black swiftly hit Carson and took the gun away from him, a third man entered the room and handcuffed his hand as the other two men held it back and Carson was surprised because he was not expecting any of these.Meanwhile the family members in the room were too shocked to do anything. They sat frozen in their seat as they had just witnessed two shocking things happening within the room, but little did they know it was not everything.Vian was still by Adonis side after he was shot. Warm tears started pouring from her pretty eyes as she saw him laid there uncons
"Nobody deserves misery, but sometimes it's just your turn."-Unknown-***“Allow me to introduce myself properly, my name is Adonis Ravenwood Earlington, the son of Eduardus Richard Earlington.” He started. His air was slightly different from the usual Adonis, as if he had just transformed or leveled up in a game. He became a lot more charismatic.Upon the mention of the Earlington, suddenly the other members of the family gasped in shock except for Vian who did not really know who the man was, as she was never properly socialized with too much with their business networks. Yes, since she was young she was often excluded from the networking part of the family as they felt humiliated if the child was to make acquaintance with the elites.She remained silent as she did not wish to embarrass herself by lacking the knowledge to figure out who the man was but judging from the reaction of the other family members, h
"And suddenly you just know, it's time to start something new and trust the magic of beginnings."-Meister Eckhart-***It had been a little over a week since the announcement and Vian was preparing herself to move to the Earlington estate. She had never visited the place before and to think she would reside there from then on was simply beyond her. She had grown up in luxury so she was sure she would not be too surprised by any luxury the place had to offer, but she simply wondered how would it differ from her home.In most countries, when married it is the norm for wife to follow the husband but since she lived in the western society, things had been a bit different, perhaps for the worse because all the casual aspects in relationships were glorified. Plenty had lost respect for marriage which was truly a shame, but she was happy she was married to someone like Adonis, even though she had not found out his real identity until l
"Home is where love resides, memories are created, friends and family belong and laughter never ends."-Unknown-***He led her to the garden on the back of the house. From the front one could not see the garden since it was so closed off so it could only be accessed from within the house, but the garden was so large and despite its enormous size, everything was well-arranged even after the late Eduardus Earlington’s death which spoke a lot about the maintenance practices of the house. Vian gasped as she entered it for the first time.It was clear the garden was inspired by European style gardens inside the castles. There were varieties of flowers planted on almost every corner which meant the previous owner was a huge fan of flowers. Most of them were white florals but there were a few varieties of roses as well. On each sides were lines of different fruit trees. There was some lemons and oranges, figs, peaches, apples and
"A vacation is having nothing to do and all day to do it in."-Robert Orben-***It was the end of November and the weather was getting colder in the States as winter arrived. It was almost Christmas time and everyone was excited to enjoy the snow and the cold weather, but not with Adonis and Vian. Instead of allowing themselves to adjust to the cold weather, they decided to head over to the other side of the world where summer never ended. After picking through a few tourist destinations they decided to settle for St. Barts in the Caribbean. Instead of covering themselves in thick winter coats, they were dressed in light, flowy summer clothing.As he had promised before, Adonis took the time off he had throughout December to bring Vian there as a way to compensate for their past honeymoon. They had never experienced an exclusive honeymoon before so he would ensure to give her the best experience throughout the one week they plan
"Owning our story and loving ourselves through that process is the bravest thing that we'll ever do."-Brene Brown-***It had been been over a year since Vian and Adonis’ honeymoon trip. Two months after the trip Vian was tested positive and right during Fall season of the year she gave birth to a beautiful baby girl who was given the name Davina Rose Earlington since she was gentle and soft like rose petals. The couple had been busy taking care of their baby and balancing it with work as well. So many life changings event occurred during the year. Besides the birth of the heiress, Vian also launched her eye-wear brands for the first time.Within a year they had opened up three boutiques, one was in New York, the second one was in Los Angeles and the third one was in Houston where she resided. Of course, her products were also sold on online websites and she used modern marketing tactic of endorsing influencers to promote
