The Stones Residence.In a mansion beautifully decorated and filled with powerful auras,three individual sat discussing."She's stubborn, stubborn than you, I think." A middle aged woman laughed. Age hadn't taken a toll on her, as she still maintained her youthfulness."Nope, I think she's stubborn like grandfather. Or is it grandmother?" Her husband smiled as he retorted. They were Quinn's parents and grandfather; Sylvester, Nicole and Patriarch Raphael.Raphael chuckled at their banter. He felt at ease with his family.To the outside world,the Stones' family were all ruthless and powerful people. But he knew more than anyone how warm everyone were when they were together as family.Years ago, his son had given him a grandchild. However, something happened...Something that nearly gave the whole family a heart attack.She was kidnapped... Right under their nose.... The Stones family?!He made sure everywhere was searched; but she wasn't found.His daughter-in-law,her mother was dev
Supporting her daughter's decision.The Stone's Residence.Nicole was seated comfortably in the living room. A maid was trimming her nails.She was in a fairly good mood. It's been a week since her daughter visited them. However,she was already missing her.Was it her fault?Was it easy to be separated from one's daughter for nineteen years?It wasn't at all...As she immersed herself in her thoughts,a guard came in to report."Madam, Mr Stephen is here." He bowed.Stephen?What was he doing here?"Let him in. You may leave." She waved the maid away.The maid bowed respectfully and left.Stephen came into the living room. He was feeling oppressed. The whole mansion was and looked expensive. Splendor, elegance,beauty,were all present in the mansion.The Stone family were fucking rich...."Young man, didn't you call Michelle before coming here?" Whenever Quinn wasn't around,they referred to her as Michelle."Good day, Madam Nicole. It's a pleasure meeting you." Stephen bowed respectfull
California.Kathleen's villa."What do you mean 'you can't find anything about her?" Kathleen questioned incredulously."I've searched, President..." Her assistant replied with a bow."So, did she disappear into thin air?" Kathleen was in a state of disbelief.Just to find a measly slut and for days now they have been searching.Did she disappear?"Keep an eye on my father. I'm sure she will visit him again. If she does, I want you to tail her." Kathleen waved her hand dismissed 'him'.She sighed when her assistant left.Such incompetence...Or maybe the lady was hiding from her?Either ways, she believed in her assistant...The lady would be found soon...===============Rita sighed when she left the villa. She got into her car and drove towards her house.That was close...How could she be told to find 'herself'?What a ridiculous situation...She would continue beating around the bush... She couldn't allow Kathleen find about the truth...Alexander....Kathleen...Soon enough, she
Her phone suddenly started ringing.'Ring... Ringgggg...'Who was calling her by that time of the night?She glanced at the caller ID and smiled."Hey Laurel. What's up?" Laurel was her best friend and the CEO of a perfume company.Laurel's voice boomed over the loud speakers blaring at the background.Kathleen arched her brows. Where the hell was her friend by this time of the night?"Hey Kath! Come over to Sharaton bar. Hurry,we are having fun!!" Laurel screamed over the fun.Obviously, they were having fun just like she said. Laurel had always been a party type. She always loved to have fun.Kathleen glanced at the grandfather clock in her living room; 11:00pm.So late...However,she couldn't deny she was bored."Are you coming over now??!!!!" Laurel's loud voice startled her. She had forgotten she was on a call."Yeah, be there in five!!!" Kathleen equally shouted."See ya!!" Kathleen hung up.Well well, it wouldn't hurt to have a bit of fun.After these past few days stress,she w
Jayden and Ariana.Quinn woke up with a smile on her face. She was in a very good mood. Her hand subconsciously moved towards her side. She sighed in relief when she felt Emelda's body.After the day she was discharged from the hospital, Quinn started making her daughter sleep with her on the same bed. She didn't want her body to act up and she wasn't beside her."Good morning mum," Emelda woke up at her mother's touch."Good morning pumpkin, how was your sleep?" Quinn drew close to her and kissed her forehead.Emelda giggled."It was fine. I dreamt about you mum." Emelda leaned into her mum's embrace."Really? Tell me about it." Quinn was amused."No mum, I will tell you later." Emelda hugged her mom tighter.'Ring... ringgggg.' The sound of her ringtone distracted their quiet moment.When Quinn saw the caller ID, she chuckled."Hey Khloe. What's up girl?" Quinn questioned gaily."Nothing much. The others wanted us to meet. The usual spot." Khloe said in her usual calm voice."Alright
Being the Oriole.CALIFORNIAHenry was unsettled all through the morning. Kathleen had been giving him the cold shoulders for weeks now. She had been acting indifferent.However...He knew it was his fault. But did he care? It wasn't as if he was in love with her after all.Since Quinn was claiming she was married, he had to pay her back.The best way to do that?Get married to Kathleen.Yes, that was what he was going to do...But if he did, wasn't he subjecting himself to a lifetime of unhappiness.Well, it doesn't matter, he was going to go ahead with his plans first..."Raven, what time is the meeting?" He asked his assistant.He had a conference meeting with the shareholders of the company.In fact, the recent happenings was what was going to fuel his decision to get married to Kathleen.Getting married to her would make the Corporation stronger..."In ten, President..." Raven stood respectfully beside him.He had been standing beside Henry for ten minutes now but he seemed to be
Siding with their daughter, weren't they?Washington DC.Stephen was quietly brooding in his office. He was hurt from his conversation with Quinn's mother. Who did she think she was?Even though she was a Stone, did that give her right to trample on others? Did that give her the right to act arrogant towards him?He made a mistake... Women were arrogant...But deep down, he knew she had every right to act that way towards him; she was after all a Stone.And who were the Stones?The most powerful family in the country.He tapped his fingers impatiently on the table... What if he met with her dad instead?He had pure intentions... He only wanted to court their daughter.Then ?He was also from the Arnold's family.. He was also wealthy in his own right. Although he couldn't compare to the Stone's family at all.Compared to them, his own family was just a speck of dust.But he wasn't deterred at all... In fact, his determination increased...It was either Quinn or no one else. He had to
He was hers for keeps.Kathleen walked down from the plane in excitement. She was very excited...Soon she would be having a dinner date with her fiance.A date!She was looking forward to it.But why couldn't Henry be romantic enough to pick her up from the airport?Damned Henry.....Some minutes later, she was driving on her way to Henry's house. Since they were having a date, it wouldn't make sense for her to drive to the location all by herself right?So, in order not to stress her handsome fiance, she could just stay at his place till the time was due.She parked her car at the garage immediately she drove through the gate.She walked to the door and inserted the spare key she had. Henry had given her a spare key because she had the habit of returning from Los Angeles any time she liked.She went straight upstairs and jumped on the bed directly. She was kind of worn out from everything that has been happening lately.She couldn't wait to officially become Henry's wife.Wife...S
