THE NEXT DAY"Where have you been? You are always sneaking in and out of the house as you wish these days," Sarah said as her daughter sat by the table. "What do you mean by sneaking?" Zara asked, running her hand through her hair in annoyance. "What time did you get back yesterday?" Sarah asked."Can you get off the girl's back?" Carlos asked as he strolled into the tiny kitchen and sat beside her. "Are you asking me to get off my daughter's back? Whose back should I then get on?" Sarah asked, dropping two plates to their front, both plates making a loud sound as they dropped to the table. "Should I go out to train other children?" she asked, going back to the stovetop to pick up her own plates. "Is this all we have for breakfast?" Carlos asked, looking down at scrambled eggs in front of him. "If you earned a bit more, then maybe we might have a bit more to eat," she said in spite. "What was that?" Carlos asked, his eyebrows going up. "Mom, why are you trying your best to pick

"Get me on the phone with Ms. Clark," Ezra said as he strolled into the officer. Mary, his assistant, looked up and stumbled to her feet, slamming her knees into the edge of the table. She bent over, holding her knees as she winced in pain. She took a sharp breath, feeling it fill her lungs with air as she tried to stand up. She was not sure if her ears had heard well or if her boss was asking her to get in touch with his fiance for him. "Mr. Thatcher?" she asked, standing up to follow him. "Mary, are you going to get her on the phone or not?" he asked, taking off his coat and sliding into his chair. "If I may, sir, I would love to stay out of the drama this time," she said, moving closer to the table. She still felt scrawled by his former request and how it had ended up. Olivia Marie, who was his wife-to-be, was not pleased with her, and funny how she was the one who took all of the heat. "Are you disobeying me?" Ezra asked, holding to the edge of the table and pulling his chair

“Come on, Olivia, you can't be like this,” Ezra let out, frustrated. He was wrong, but she might be blowing it out of proportion. “Don't be like that. How else do you want me to be?” she sneered. He cleared his throat and stood up as he began pacing the entire floor. “I am sorry about how it turned out; I am just not ready to...” "Ezra, we are getting married in three months; when are you going to finally be ready to show the world that we are together?” she asked, taking a deep breath. “Olivia…”“It is Olivia-Marie and you would address me as such.” "Olivia-Marie,” he took a deep breath. He had no excuse after standing her up. She had planned this entire engagement party for them so that he could meet her friends and some other people, but he was not interested in doing that yet. “Are you still waiting? Are you still hoping?” she asked, piercing through his thoughts. “Still waiting?” he asked his mind, trying to decipher what she meant. “Are you still waiting for her? The wom

"I have been curious to know." "Mom, not now," Isla said. They were at the table ready for breakfast, Elliot and Ronan had left beforehand to get to work so they were left with only the ladies and Isla knew her mom was going to ask her sister about what happened that made her return home. Clara was glad to see her daughter, but she wanted to know why she was suddenly home after going without contact for three years. "I know you are curious, and I would tell you, but can I first eat this delicious rice meal?" She looked up at her mom. Clara nodded and wondered if her daughter had been starved of good meals since she left the house. "Have you not been eating well?" she asked, and her daughter smiled at her and shook her head. "Mom, I have been eating very well, so you do not need to worry." Clara made a sound at the back of her throat; it was obvious she was not impressed by the answer that her daughter had given her. "Aren't you going to eat?" Elara asked, looking up at her

"Mom, I am at work. Why are you calling me?" Micah said rudely over the phone to his mom. "Can't a mom call her son again? Why are you being so rude to me so early in the morning?" Cora replied."Why are you calling?" Micah asked, ignoring her questions. He knew how dramatic she could be and what she could do to him just because he ignored her call, and that was the reason he picked up. "Can Zara join us for dinner tonight?" "Mom, I don't know; why do you want her to join us for dinner?" "Since we can't meet her family, I invited your aunty and her husband so she could get familiar with the family," Cora said beaming with pride. "MOM," Micah said, almost screaming her ears off. "What is it? Why are you screaming at me?" Cora asked her own voice going up as well. "Why wouldn't I scream at you? I explained to you a million times why we have to keep this a secret from others, and yet you have gone to invite Aunty and Uncle? Why did you think this was okay without asking me first?"

"About the meeting with the prime minister," Isla began as she paced around the room. Elara dropped her phone to her body because she heard from her sister's tone that she wanted to say something important. "Is there something wrong? Are Dad and Mom not supposed to be going there?" Elara asked, sitting up and looking at her seriously. "It's not that..." Isla trailed off, making Elara panic a bit more. "Then what is it? Is the business still safe? Are Dad and Mom still safe? Do you think there might be trouble looming?" Elara knew she was supposed to be the laid-back sibling who does not worry, but somehow the incident she just faced had ignited something inside her that made her fearful, and she did not even know it. "It is not that; I mean, when they are out together, should we go for dinner?" Isla said she felt a bit bad that she had made her sister go through the torture. "What?" Elara's face squeezed together as she bent her mouth to a corner and her eyebrows raised. "You

"You sure chose a fancy place," Elara said as they walked in. "A fancy place?" Isla was not sure if her sister was being cheeky or serious. This was one of the least fancy places she was able to get because of how close to the time they were booking, and since they did not use their real identities while up and about, they could not get in like their dad or Ronan would. "Yeah, look at all the lights and decorations Oh my gosh, it's been a while since I've been at a place like this." Elara's three years out of her family home meant that she lived like a peasant, and Isla seeing it firsthand angered her the more to hate Micah. "Are you saying that when you were with Micah you did not have dates in places like this?" Isal asked."He said that dates were a waste of money." Elara began her eyes darting to the painting on the wall as she smiled at how beautiful it was before adding under her breath. "But he had the money to cheat on me at one of the fanciest restaurants in our part of to

"Ezra?" Isla raised her head to look at him, and truly he was standing there. "You see him too, right; this is in my mind." Elara leaned in and whispered to her sister, and she nodded. "Oh well," she said, almost yelling and looking up. "What are you doing here?" "I am here for dinner with my sister," she said playfully, waving the menu in hand. "What about you?" she continued. Ezra seemed uncomfortable as she shifted from one leg to another and then shook his head. "Well," he began and then stopped to clear his throat. She raised her eyebrow at him and wondered why it was so hard for him to just say that he was there for dinner. "You don't have to say it if it is that hard," she said and then smiled at him. "It's nice to see you anyway," she said, looking back down at her menu. She felt a bit fuzzy inside; why did seeing him do that to her? "It's not that I don't want to tell you; I just did not want you to hear like this." "Hear what?" Isla asked, being nosy and also because

Elara and Ezra finally pulled away; he held her head in his hand and brushed back the hair on her face. "Do you know how long I have been waiting to do that?" he asked, gently rubbing his hand across her face."Me too," she murmured, bending her head out of embarrassment. She knew she was coming there to bear out her heart to him; she did not know that she was going to be the one to kiss him first. "Don't bend your head; I want to look at your face," he said. She wanted to jump back and call him out on his cheesiness but she liked the way it made her feel. She blushed, feeling blood soak up her cheeks as butterflies filled her stomach. "Why did it take you this long to come if this is what you wanted as well?" he asked."I told you, I was afraid," she murmured. Her tone was low and it was obvious she was trying to pick a side; she was not sure if she was embarrassed by what had happened between them or if she was happy it happened. There were mixed feelings and she was still trying t

"To tell you the reason I broke it off again was because...""Did you come here to tell me the reason why you broke it off? I already heard and understood the reason the first time."Wait!" She held his hand as he tried to get off the stool. She shifted her hand a bit to the back and then flushed in embarrassment. "I came here to tell you that for the first time in my life, I want to be selfish; I do not want to think about you and what you need or about Olivia-Marie and what she needs or wants; I want to think about myself alone and do what I want," she said.He blinks and shrugs. "Why are you telling me this? If you want to be selfish, then be selfish, but why are you dragging me into it?""Because my being selfish affects you, I am not going to give you up. I am going to cling to you for the longest time and I do not care if you do not want me around. I am going to be like that itch you cannot get rid of," she said and he almost laughed in her face. She was never the kind of person

She ran after him because he was walking with long strides and she knew that if she walked, she might not keep up with him. She took off her jacket and hung it on the coat hanger before following him into the kitchen. "Do you want anything to drink or eat?"She could tell that he was angry with her but he was still trying to make sure that his anger didn't cloud his judgement and make him do anything he would regret. "Just water would be fine," she murmured and he nodded.He took a glass from the cupboard and poured her a glass before thrusting it into her hand. "Why are you here?" He asked, looking everywhere in the kitchen aside from her.She climbed into one of the chairs and began shipping on the water. "To see you," she said quietly."Exactly, why on earth would you come to see me?" he asked. This time the anger he felt was substantial in the way he spoke. He cleared his throat and pulled out a chair two steps opposite her. "You ended things before they got a chance to start so w

Elara was finally able to get her work done; instead of sending a message to Ezra, she had decided to go over to his house to see him. They would be able to talk better when they were face-to-face. She got down to her car; her dad asked her if she needed a driver and she was not sure if there was a need to employ someone to drive her around when she could easily do it by herself. She drove herself to Ezra's house and was stopped at the gate."How can I help you?""I am here to see Ezra," she replied. The man looked her up and down before silently going back to the gatehouse. He picked up his phone and said something, going back and forth with whoever was on the phone before he came back to her. It was obvious he was reluctant to open up the gate for her. She kept a smile on her face."Mr Thatcher is not in," he explained and she nodded. She thought as much that he would not be back from work. She did not want to start any unnecessary drama on the news; that was the reason she did not

Chole sat in the living room with her planner. After meeting with Ephraim's family, she began planning the wedding. She did not wait for Ephraim to ask her to be his wife; she was sure it would happen and since she wanted to get out of her father's house faster, she knew it was best for her to speed up the process before it became unbearable for her.She heard the front door open and then shut. She knew it was her father; she thought she would be down with what she had to do before he came in. How was she to explain that she was planning a wedding he had disapproved of loudly in his living room? Since the day of the visit, her father has treated her like a stranger in the house. She did not want it to be that way but she did not know if there was anything to do to change her father's mind. Ephriam had told her that it would all work out.She heard the steps draw closer to them and she sat uptight, ready for war. "Who is this?" She turned in the direction of the voice and smiled."This

Zara stood in front of her parents' house. She had thought that marriage to Micah would get her more money than her parents and that she would be able to give them, but it turned out that Micah was bluffing about his wealth just the same way she had been doing. She was left with more debt than she had before getting married to him. She could not leave him because she was sure that no one would want her or even want to be associated with her. Since she had the chance to get married to him, she was going to hold on. Getting married had been her dream and now she was able to accomplish it.She gathered all of her strength and walked up the stairs leading to her parent's home. One of the things she was grateful for was that she managed to not entangle her parents in the mess she created. How would she have been able to live with herself if it happened that way? Since she got married, she had not spoken to or visited them.However, after overhearing the conversation between Micah and Cora,

Elara stared at her phone in hand; it had been a week since she and Ezra broke off whatever it was they had between them. Even though she kept on assuring herself that there was nothing between them, she knew that the feelings she felt for him were the same as the ones she felt a few years ago. She wanted to call him up and tell him that she had spoken to Olivia-Marie and she had decided to step back so they could be together but she did not know how she was supposed to do so.Her phone began vibrating in her hand and she almost threw out the phone from her hand out of fear. She glanced at the screen and it looked familiar even though the number was unknown. She allowed it to ring and stop before it began to ring again. She picked it up and pressed it to her ear, waiting for whoever was calling to speak first."Hello?" Micah's voice rang through the air. She rolled her eyes; she knew he had to be the one. Micah had never been one to give up at first attempt so since the last time he c

Elara could not believe her eyes; she wondered why Olivia-Marie would come here to see her. "Are you going to tell them to move?" she asked. Elara was sure that there was something very different about the woman standing in front of her. She was not the same one who had bawled out her eyes at the gate the other day."Let her through," Elara said, taking her step forward. Both bodyguards shifted to the side for her to go through. "What are you doing here?" she asked and Olivia-Marie smiled."I am here to see you," she said and when the expression on Elara's face did not show her that she was welcome, she decided to explain. "Why do we talk? I am sure we have a lot to say."Elara turned to her assistant and gave orders. "Clear my schedule for the afternoon." She did not know why she did that but it seemed as if Olivia-Marie had something important to tell her."Okay, ma'am," she replied."I will go alone from here," she said. The bodyguards bowed to her before leaving without a fight; h

Olivia-Marie stood out of the gate; the man who had let her in had gotten an earful from Ezra and she stood there watching. She watched Ezra get into the back seat of the Range Rover; she began to think of when she thought he was the one for her and why she thought it. The driver drove past her and she tried to peer into the car but Ezra had his face buried in a book.She had promised herself that she had to have him for herself; he was everything that a woman would want in a man and even more, he was well-mannered and even rich. His beauty was nothing to joke about.She knew that if she kept pushing, she would be the laughing stock at the end but if she ended it now, then she would still be a laughing stock. Her friends were going to make endless fun of her life. She spent eight years clinging to a man she knew was going to leave her in a heartbeat; she knew that if his first love ever showed up, then this was the end. However, she did not want to accept it was the end so she held on
