The heavy grand doors of the Meyers mansion swung open with a sharp creak as two security men matched in, with grim faces, walking tall and formidable behind Malcolm. “Get Ivy down here!” He ordered in a very cold and authoritative manner, and it caused the maids who were at his call to shudder in fear as they went to get her from her room instantly. Unaware of what the sudden hubbub of her brother wanting to see her was, Ivy, who had gotten home less than five minutes ago, made her way down the grand stairs that led to her room lazily. For the past few weeks, all she had done was go to clubs to dance and drink with her friends, while spending money lavishly as she pleased. She had been unable to get rid of the anger and pain that her head had been drowning, knowing that she lost her ex to Audrey. It bruised her ego non-stop anytime she thought of it. And since she had been unable to talk to anyone about it, she decided to keep it to herself, considering how messy the family ha

After she was dragged away from the mansion by the security guards into the car they came with, Ivy was taken to a small vacation house that they drove to that night, which was miles away from the mansion after making sure they were not being trailed. The room they made her sit in after they arrived was suffocating as well as trepidatory, and all she could do was bury her eyes on the floor while sitting so stiffly, her heart thumping fast as the men that brought her in, left her with Malcolm. She cowered in fear as she refused to meet the eyes of her brother, who stood miles away from her, his gaze hard and unyielding, with his arms crossed against his chest as if barricading himself against any slightest feeling of compassion for her. For some reason, Ivy had no idea why he had chosen not to believe her when she said that Isla was involved too, which had frustrated her more than ever and made fear sink into her stomach because it looked like no one was coming to save her. Not

Zoe stood in front of the dresser in the master bedroom of the private suite she was staying in, her eyes staring conceitedly at her reflection in the reflective glass before her, and her heart swirling with the weight of the big decision she was finally making that night. She had spoken with Marcel two days before, and he had given her a sad reply that his father was unwilling to release his private jet to him because they were still not on good terms, even if he had no idea what she wanted to use it for. However, she told him not to worry anymore because she would still be able to use that of ANCLAIR’s conglomerate in the meantime, till her grandfather would probably decide to finally cut her off from the benefits as the CEO if he found out what she was planning. She finally told him why she had requested that of him. Earlier in the morning, she asked that Aaron be discreetly transported to Zara's house, and asked that the dutiful secretary take care of him till evening, kno

THREE MONTHS LATEROn the last day at the jewelry company, clusters of office workers lingered by their desks and in the hallways, talking in hushed, worried voices. An eerie feeling and a weird hollow quietness settled in the surroundings of each office, as if amplifying the uneasiness everyone was overwhelmed by. Brown boxes that belonged to them lined the floors, filled with items from their desks and cubicles, and the once-glittering display cases where sample pieces of exquisite jewelry sat proudly were now empty. It was not a shock that everything finally came to that, because for the past months the company, Hila Jewelry had been struggling more than it had since the beginning of the year, and a few of them who got a better offer, or even less good offers from other companies, left as fast as they could before they soon became at the mercy of joblessness.While faced with the fear of all of them being laid off since an employee buyout might not happen, their voices rose in co

The presence of the woman that made her way into the boardroom radiated a chilling, and self-assured elegance as she sauntered across the room, her piercing gaze locking onto Isla for a brief, almost taunting second. Dressed in a sharp, immaculately custom-made white suit, her movements were graceful, calculated and classy, like a predator closing in on prey, her stunning white heels clicking ostentatiously on the marble floor. Isla felt the blood drain from her face instantly, as she stared in shock, unable to process the sight before her. “How…?” she barely whispered to herself, too stunned to speak louder, her heart nearly stopping, “How……” She could barely keep herself composed as her eyes narrowed on the woman, who stood confidently before her, with a smug smile settling in the corners of her mouth. Desperately trying to make sense of the unraveling events, Isla's voice trembled as she forced herself to speak, “Zoe?” she called out, her voice trembling with fear, unable to b

The atmosphere in the boardroom was tense as the meeting finally began, and Isla was still reeling from Zoe's revelation, gripping the edges of her chair, forcing herself to sit up straight despite the humiliation twisting inside her. Every eye in the room now focused on the man at Zoe's side, who was the host of the meeting. He was a tall, polished secretary with the most dashing look, and he exuded great appearance. He cleared his throat with a crisp authority as if calling everyone's attention to him, and began to speak, “Ladies and gentlemen,” he greeted politely, “I understand this is a day of difficult transition because of the sudden disruption, but it is necessary to review the reasons the shareholders are being advised not to honor Ms. Isla's requested payout before the transfer of ownership rights is completed,” He glanced down briefly at his papers before him, and then backed up, his eyes locking with each shareholder. Isla felt a pang of dread as he continued, her hear

Sitting in the comfort of his office, which was nothing short of sophistication and opulence, a gorgeous man, calm and composed, his suit impeccable, his perfectly waxed hair neatly in place, had just ended a conference call with the company headquarters in China. His mind was still basking in the serenity of the silence around him while refreshing his email with the hope that he had gotten a reply, when the grand door to his office suddenly flew open without a knock, as a fuming man stormed in, barely able to contain his fury.“What the hell, Malcolm?!” he snapped, voice filled with anger as he crossed the room, his face twisted with fury, and his fists clenched at his sides, “Why did you reject my proposal? Again?" His voice was a low growl, though it trembled with a barely contained rage.Without sparing him a glance, Malcolm remained calm as he switched off his computer, and he settled back in his chair, crossing one leg over the other with practiced ease. When he finally looked

The grand front door of the Meyer swung open with force and rattled against the wall as Isla stormed into the grand lobby, and then the stairway, her heels striking the marble floors with a force that echoed through the long hallway, revealing the intensity of her anger. Her face was scrunched up in anger and despair, and her voice was loud and quivering with frustration, as it dissipated into the air before anyone had even noticed her arrival, knowing she would definitely find them there. “She is back!” she cried out in frustration, as her fists clenched her sides, and her body quivered with anger, as she strode into the living room where her mother and brother sat, “Zoe is back, mother!” Ever since Andre returned home and the family ended up dividing, the only person who was not shocked by the announcement or new arrangement was Isla. It was as if she had known what had been going on behind the scenes before the plan finally became public, and couldn't help being bothered like

“You don't call me anymore,” The voice of the lady on the phone filled with a silent and low resentment, questioned with a very low tone, as if what she was talking about was not brewing fierce anger within her heart. “You know I told you I have been busy,” the voice came from the other side of the phone.“Fuck you and your silly busyness,” Isla scoffed, the softness in her voice suddenly dissolving, “You pick up my call after days only to tell me bullshit? You think you are too important now? Too good to pick up the damn phone?!” A bitter laughter rolled out of her lips again, as if trying to understand the absurdity of the situation. “You are my plaything, remember?” her lips curved into a derisive smirk, as her voice went low while dripping with a menacing reminder, “I own you, and every damn thing you own! Every damn thing! And you are going to be doing every fucking thing I ask you to do every time I call. I shouldn't be the one chasing you,” she spat. A deep suffocating silen

Andre sat rigid in his leather chair at the office, as his fingers tapped with a furious beat against the desk before him, with his eyes burning with frustration as his face contorted into an embodiment of rage. Reports, flight logs, surveillance photos, and some other files were all scattered across his desk, some torn or crinkled at the edges from where his furious hands had gripped them too tightly. A half-smoked cigarette remnant rested in the ashtray, and beside it was a half-drunk glass of whiskey. Gritting his teeth so hard and unable to hold himself from the worries that had been storming through his head and mind, he grabbed his phone which had been lying idle on the table for hours, and dialed the number of his investigator as fast as he could. “Sir,” the investigator spoke up. “Tell me you have something positive already,” he demanded, his voice dangerously quiet and low. The investigator’s heart plunged into fear, as his voice stiffened a bit after hesitating for a

Barely processing what she had just heard, the beautiful young girl with stunning and distinctive shining, glassy blue eyes looked up at the person her mother was talking to, and was about to ask the question. “Who is she?” However, the child's eyes widened with recognition, her eyebrows furrowing in surprise, as she pointed directly at Zoe and blurted out with innocent certainty, “I know you!” It made Zoe’s eyes squint in confusion as they wondered what the child meant because she didn't remember any scenario of meeting a child, and it made her wonder if the child had seen her on TV or in a magazine before. Jasmine was equally taken aback too. “Raine. You probably had the wrong person,” she quickly cautioned her daughter, her heart thumping a little fast how Zoe and her daughter had met before. The girl, however, was already bouncing on her feet, as she freed her hands from her mother's own instantly, and moved to home Zoe's hand, who instinctively flinched, not expecting such

The day had drained her. From the moment she stepped into her office that morning, it had been one endless cycle of rescheduled meetings, unanswered emails, and entire reviews of files and documents. By midday, fatigue had crept deep into her bones and lodged fully there, and by late afternoon, she barely had the resilience to push on working further. And for the first time in weeks, Zoe decided to clock out of work early. Not work per se, but she decided to clock out of the office, because the next place she had in mind instead of home was to go sightseeing around her mall. She wanted to buy something for herself as a shopper and not the CEO. It had been a while since she enjoyed the amusement solely for herself and not strictly business. Taking the general elevator, she pressed the button for the second floor where big top restaurants had their flagship stores stationed, and the first wave of air that whooshed past her nose was the scent of fresh pastries, coffee, and delicacies

“Do you not think we have to remove Malcolm now? He seems so incompetent now, and it does not seem like he is ready to do anything concerning the situation on the ground. We are the ones that would take the fall for it!” a voice rose angrily in the room where some women and men were seated around a polished oak table with hushed voices and nervous glances. It was a man with silver-threaded hair in his fifties, who was a renowned top-investor in big companies. His eyes narrowed into a sharp, and angry gaze as he continued speaking, with his fingers tapping hard against the table, “We need to remove him. The stock is falling, the company is in turmoil, and he has done nothing to clear his name from those slush fund accusations. That silence. It is dangerous. I cannot hold on any longer,” he made his thoughts known to the others in the room. Some of the people in the room leaned forward with conviction, while others shifted uneasily in their seats, wondering if their discussion which h

Malcolm sat behind his imposing office desk with his mind a little lost in the thoughts of Zoe, as he equally worried about her, while wondering if she was doing well. He had not seen her at all the previous day, and arrived home later than he usually did because of some things he had to set out at work. He knew she would be probably home by the time he arrived, but he didn't have the guts to go and knock on her door. He just sat on the balcony of the room where he could see the roof of her house until he saw the lights to her house go off. He had been thinking hard and pondering on the excuse that he could use to go and see her again, and he also wondered how she felt concerning the few things he had done. He was curious and wanted to know her reaction to it. If she had angrily trashed everything- The food, tea, china, flask, lamp, and purifier, or she just ignored the fact that it was there and didn't even care, or perhaps, didn't mind that he did and had no strong feelings towar

The day Zoe had met with Jasmine and had embraced her with all her might, and drowned in the sweet scent of the body as well as her warm embrace, she left with a few strands of her hair. She felt so terrible doing that with her consent, but she wanted to be sure. She didn't want her life to be a lie again even if everything and traits about Jasmine pointed out that she was no doubt her mother. She just wanted the hope that truly she wasn't just misguided by a few coincidences. But instead of calling her and having nothing to say to her when she was probably bitter towards her thinking she was Emily's daughter, Zoe let herself sink into the memory of the woman she longed to call as the loneliness around her pressed in, and filled every inch of the luxurious, soulless space around her. While she continued to wallow in her deep concern, she scooped a spoonful of cereal that had sodden miserably in her bowl into her mouth, and forced herself to keep chewing, even if she wasn't sure sh

At the earliest hours of the morning, 5:45 AM, Zoe's eyes suddenly parted open as if some sort of realization hit her from her sleep. Her body felt heavier than usual, like she was sinking into the expensive mattress that had never quite felt like hers as she stared at the white ceilings above her face, which blinked against the pale lights that kicked from the floor-to-ceiling windows of her room. For some reason, as she lay on her bed, trying to grasp an unfamiliar feeling that somehow coursed through her body, she tried to comprehend why she felt a strange sense of relief even if she woke up to the sound of nothing. It was the first time in a long time that she had slept that long. She didn't even realize when she dozed off the previous night after she left the bathroom still lost in thoughts. But for the first time in weeks, she had slept. Straight hours without the endless turning, nightmares and incessant sleep breaks. She sat up slowly, pushing away her silk sheets that

Driving with an aggression and crazy speed, Isla floored on the accelerator of her car just moments as soon as the doors to the Meyers mansion swung open, and swerved in like a maniac under hot pursuit. Stepping out her car and grabbing her bag violently with her face scrunched up into a deep frown, she dropped her car keys on the floor as one of the butlers scrambled unsuccessfully below her to catch it fast. Not minding that her heels grinded on the poor man's hand, she stormed past and made her way into the mansion, the doors automatically opening at the sensing of her presence. With her heels clicking loudly against the polished shining floors as she walked past the huge first living room which had been desolate for quite a while because things were not quite the same with the people living in the mansion anymore, she began to climb the stairs that led to the hallway which was the way to her room. Turning swiftly to the right, Isla's eyes caught sight of her mother who was sta
