Alfie took the phone off his ears. He knew that he had jumped to a conclusion about Chole and Ronan last night but he had seen the opportunity and wanted to grab it by the neck. If he let it go, how was he supposed to stabilise his company? He marched from downstairs, where he had been drinking his coffee, to Chole's room. He pounded on the door and waited for her to respond.Chole was jolted awake from the pounding. She looked around, and the last thing that she remembered was leaving the hotel and going to a bar. She sat on the bed, trying to ignore her father on the other side of the door. She thought of Ephesus, and her heart began to ache. She did not even think for once that he was ever going to do something so evil to her. He was with her for her father's money? She did not have access to her father's money, and she was willing to leave it all for him, and yet he had his eyes on it.She began to think back on the relationship between them. He said they met by coincidence at the

Ronan took up his phone and called Noelle. He tried multiple times, but still there was no response to his calls. He was worried that she was intentionally ignoring him, and she would put it on that their relationship between them was professional and that she did not need to work on Sunday, so she did not get his calls. He knew sitting there all day trying to reach her on the phone was not going to resolve anything so he moved out of the house to her location. Since she had complained about him showing up with fancy cars before, he picked an ordinary salon car so he could blend into the neighbourhood.He got to the nearest parking lot by her house and decided to park there and walk the rest of the way. He got to her apartment door and knocked on the door. As he stood there, he realised that he should have brought something to apologise with, and now it was too late since he had knocked already. He waited for the door to get attended to; it never came, so he knocked again."Who is the

Noelle made sure that her father was out of the place before she turned to Ronan, clapping her hand gently. "Do you want to come in?" she asked when she realized that they could not stand in the doorway."Sure," he said, stepping into her apartment. He looked around the cosy but tiny apartment, allowing it to take in her. There were two doors facing each other at the end of the room, and he knew that had to be the bedroom and bathroom. The open kitchen was to the right of the door. "Lovely place," he said."You can sit here," she whispered. She felt a bit weird that he was in her house. "Can I offer you anything?" she asked and he shook his head. "Well, I feel a bit weird that you are here and I can't offer you anything," she replied."I will take anything with alcohol in it then," he replied. She nodded and walked to the kitchen, opening up the fridge and taking out a bottle of water after noticing that she might need to restock on a few things."I have this; I guess it should be oka

Noelle had lied to Ronan that she was having a blind date that her friend had set up because she thought that was the way she could get him to leave. Ronan was kinder than she thought he would be about it. He looked disappointed and had a lot of questions for her, but instead of asking her, he stood up and took his leave like a gentleman.Noelle was meeting with her friend Celeste. It had been a while since they had met, and she had a lot to tell her friend, so when the girl called to ask if Noelle would be free, she cleared everything else she had to do and agreed to meet. She still had an hour before Celste came over, and they could go for lunch together.Noelle spent that time cleaning up the house because she had not been able to do anything all morning. When she saw the news circulating, she broke down a bit, feeling sad about the situation. She kept on rethinking all of her choices as she wondered why she had pushed Ronan to go to Chole; she should have held onto him; she did no

"Are you going to stay for dinner tonight or are you going on another date tonight?" Relanda asked as Ezra walked into the kitchen."A date?" Ezra was confused at the sudden question she threw at him. She had barely allowed him to breathe in the scent of the soup boiling on the stove before she threw him that question. "What date?""You think I do not know that you are always out on a date these days?" Relanda asked."I am not going on any dates; I have been so busy trying to meet up with work that I have not had time for that," Ezra lied. He knew that Elara was going to panic if she heard that Relanda had figured it out so easily. He was going to try his best to keep his word to her, though, even though she had cracked the code. He was not going to tell her that it was truly a date and who it was because he was sure that would be her next question."Oh, please, boy, I think you tend to forget that I have known you for too long," she replied. She had been taking care of Ezra since he

A WEEK LATEREverything has returned to normal with the press, as no one was asking for interviews or questions about Ronan and Chole but Chole was continuously blasting Ronan's phones with multiple calls. It was a bit ridiculous to Ronan that things were happening that way. She had been the one to cut off all existing communications lines between them without first thinking about it, and now it seemed like she wanted to weasel her way back into his life.He did not pick up any of her calls or reply to her messages, but that did not stop her from sending multiple in the space of an hour. They were mostly messages apologising and asking to meet up. Even if Ronan had not fallen for Noelle within that time, he would never have given Chole the chance to speak to him. She had said what she wanted, and what he couldn't understand was why she was trying to switch things all of a sudden.A knock from the door drew him from his brood state; he looked up and murmured a come-in. Noelle appeared

Everyone who mattered had gotten an invite sent to them directly, not to other families but to each individual and they were supposed to bring a plus one to the event. It was the monarch of society, Old Mrs. Smith, who had so much money that everyone wondered what was going to happen to it, but once she died, since she had no children or grandchildren. She had been the only child of her parents and had inherited a large fortune of money only to be left heartbroken multiple times, and so instead of trying to find love, she agreed that love was meant for everyone else and just focused on herself as much as she could instead and she had been able to multiply the wealth her parents left for her by a thousand in a few years.She was a little old woman who spoke fewer words each year, but she always gave the high society a reason to gather around. It was her birthday party, and everyone who got an invitation to it personally knew that they had climbed up the ladder that year and that they c

Elara had never been this excited for a party; it felt like she was finally doing something different from her normal routine, and Isla was shocked that her sister was that invested in going to the party. They had taken a full day to choose what they were going to wear; after all, there were going to be a lot of entertainment reporters covering the events, so their pictures were going to be splattered all over the internet in a few hours after that party, and everyone would either be judging or praising what they wore.When Elara was still with Micah, she had missed all these kinds of events, and maybe that was the reason her excitement was through the roof this time. Her mom had booked a high-ranking stylist and makeup artist to help them look better. Elara would have resisted, but things like this did not come every day, so she willingly got dressed."We were asked to bring a plus one, but I do not even know anybody," Isla groaned as she came into the room with a plate in hand. She

Noelle stood up from where she had been sitting all evening. It was almost midnight, and she did not see the need to still be out that long. She knew it was going to be difficult for her to see Ronan tonight, and she had forced herself to come to terms with it. She could go to the mansion to see him first thing the next morning before she met with Celeste. Over time, she became more comfortable with Ronan and his family. The Quinn family accepted her, which made her a bit delusional that she was from a well-to-do family. As much as she tried to ignore the feeling in her heart, she still thought that he would leave her in a heartbeat if he found a better fit for himself.She stopped behind him and poked his shoulders lightly. He looked back at her and smiled. "A moment," he whispered before turning back to the crowd in front of him. He wrapped up with them quickly, and they all understood after seeing her stand there. Their relationship was no longer a secret to the public, and after R

Elara's eyes fluttered open as she began to adjust to reality. She had been so scared about being kidnapped, but she tried her best to act brave all through. She looked around the hospital room as far as her eyes could carry her, and they landed on her mother by her side. She thought that the nightmare would never end, but she was glad that it did. She saw her mom's body rise and fall gently, and she wanted to try not to wake her up.The kidnappers were not as bad as everyone thought, but then she could not trust them, seeing how badly they dragged her there. She had refused any meal they had given her and only relied on water because she was somehow convinced they could not poison the water.As she tried to take the covers off, her mother stirred and sat up, scanning the entire room. "Elara?" she murmured as she stood up and stood beside her bed. "You are awake," she said, hugging her daughter gently.Clara had been so worried that she had gone out three times in the night to ask why

"At least we finally found her. I am so happy about that," Noelle said as she brought a cup of water for Ronan, who was sitting in the living room. It had been a crazy week for all of them, and they had not really had time to be together. Ronan had made his way to the hospital, and after he made sure that Elara was fine, he came straight to see Noelle. "I am glad too," he said, taking the glass from her hand with his fingertips slightly brushing against the back of her hand. She jerked away as if she had been scalded with something burning hot. He shifted the glass from one hand to the other and held her hand before she could sit down."What was that reaction?" he asked with his eyebrows going to the top of his head."What reaction? Nothing," she murmured as she tried to control the swirling of butterflies that had taken over her stomach from the contact. She cleared her throat and tried to avoid his eyes, but he noticed that something was off."Did I do something wrong? Are you mad

Micah had somehow convinced his mom to surrender. He had spoken a great deal, but he was not sure what it was that he said that broke her. He was glad that the madness was over. It was not like he wished to be put in jail for the rest of his life, but maybe this was the universe's way of punishing him for never being content.They sat in front of the police officer; no matter the questions that the man threw their way, they did not seem to budge or say anything. "We have nothing to say," Micah finally said after he saw the sour expression on the man. "We did it, and we were just greedy." He could not let his mom take all the fall for the kidnapping. At least they were the ones who turned themselves in, so it shouldn't be as bad as they think it is.The officer looked up at them and nodded before standing up to leave them there. If they were not saying anything and they had confessed to the crime, then it meant that all they had to do was go to court and get this over with.MEANWHILEZ

Clara, Elliot, and Isla rushed to the hospital to see Elara. After Ezra had made a fuss at the hospital and demanded an emergency checkup, he called her family to inform them about what had happened. He told Elliot that he could not go into details over the phone and it would be better for them if they came over at once so they could see Elara.By the time they got there, Elara was still taking some tests, so they had to wait, and during this time, Ezra took the time to explain the situation to them."I am never ever going to allow those evil people to see the outside world till they die," Elliot announced, extremely angry. Nobody there thought that the right thing to do was to calm this man down; they were all so angry that humans would think of doing something as horrible as this to a fellow human and that they would do it so proudly.Clara kept on sobbing, and when she was asked what the issue was, she assured them that all was well and she was just happy that nothing bad had happe

"What?" The man looked genuinely concerned that he had missed an opportunity to make so much money."Micah and Cora, the woman who paid you, have come in and confessed, so you do not have to worry about trying to take a deal to save yourself." The man looked fidgety as he realised that if Cora had come in to confess, then there was really no escape for him anymore. He should not have pretended to be too tough, but he was sure that if he had taken the money, he would have been hunted down, and the money would have been returned to Ezra."I see?" the man said in a singsong voice. "But you are yet to find the woman, aren't you?" The man asked, as even Cora did not know where they had hidden Elara. She told them to do everything at their own discretion, as she did not want to be tied to something as terrible as that."What do you mean?""Cora paid us alright to kidnap her but she had no idea where she is and even worse, my partner and I have a plan that if one of us does not show up after

Ronan and Ezra got to the station and saw the man who had helped with the kidnapping of Elara. The policemen said that the man had refused to speak and that they caught him when he was out buying supplies. They asked that they be allowed to see the man, as they could maybe find a way to force him to confess. The police officers agreed because they knew that it was useless for them to disagree, as they would still find a way to have their way. Ronan and Ezra made a plan, hoping that they could both stick to it and that way get him to say something incriminating."I respect a man who works hard for his money," Ronan said as they sat down. The gruff and big man looked up. Ronan could see the realisation on his face before he cleared his throat and tried to act like he did not recognise the two men in front of him. "I am Ronan Quinn; it's nice to meet you." Ronan took out a card from his card holder and slid it across the table to him.The man looked down at the card without touching it.

"Mom?""Wait, I am thinking of what we can do to escape this; this is good for us. You've been free, and now we can leave if we can just find a way." Micah stood in a corner as he watched his mom pace around the room with her hand stroking her chin. He did not need her to speak for him to know that her mind was going in every direction possible. He bit his lower lip as he thought of how he would dissuade her and convince her to accept her fate."They don't know that we are connected to those men; maybe if the men do not confess..." she trailed off as she knew the possibility of that was very low. She was sure that the wealthy family would do all they could to coax the truth from them. "This is all your fault," Cora stopped and put her eyes on her son.Mixah shuddered at the thought of what had happened; he did not like it at all. How could she try to blame him for decisions she made without him? He was locked up in jail and did not know anything about what she was planning, so how was
