By the time Elara was done getting ready and she stepped out of the house, she was shocked to see that none of her family members had woken up already. They must still be tired from the event of last night. She knew that if she did not have a prior arrangement with Ezra, she would have still been tucked in bed sleeping. She let out a tired yawn as she walked to her car.She drove silently, allowing the sound of the car humming to fill her thoughts; finally, she was at the parking lot where she was supposed to meet Ezra. After waiting a few minutes, she sees his car pull up and then she goes to join him. As she gets into the car, he pulls her face and kisses her."Hi there," she smiled as she murmured into his lips."Hi," he replied, pressing his forehead into hers. "Should we just go back to my place?" he asked, and she shook her head."And risk having your father find out?""He would be asleep the entire day; the party was a bit stressful for everyone, and I think we can just go into

"I have been calling you all morning; where the hell did you keep your cellphone?" Celeste screamed over the phone. Noelle had been asleep; when she woke up earlier, she had a little headache from being drunk last night, so she took some water and an aspirin before heading back to bed. She wanted to rest since there was nothing else for her to do."I was asleep; last night was a little bit rough," she explained, her voice coming out strained. She cleared her throat and sat up in her chair."Rough? I thought you went to a party. What made it rough?”"I got drunk," Noelle said with a yawn."You got drunk and embarrassed yourself at a rich people's party?" Celeste asked, feeling bad for her friend. She could only imagine how embarrassed she was feeling."Well, I would not really call it an embarrassment; I'll just say your wishes have finally come through, so be happy.""My wishes? What did I wish?” Cleste's voice carried excitement, but it seemed like she wanted to hear it from Noelle b

Chloe sat at the dinner table with her father, who was silently flipping through the newspaper. She wanted to tell him of what had happened between Ronan and his assistant yesterday, but she did not know how to bring it up. She knew that Ronan was a man of his word and if he was now dating his assistant, that meant that there was nothing she could say to him that would make him change his mind. If she was going to marry him in the end, she had to play mind tricks to get him to her side.She cleared her throat and tapped gently on the table. They were already done with their meals, but Chloe could not leave, as this was her only opportunity to speak with her father. If he heard it from any other place, he would be furious if he got to know that she knew and had not informed him about it beforehand."Dad, can I talk with you?" She murmured, "He looked up from the paper briefly and then looked down again, reading through it silently. She waited for him to be done, and after a few seconds

"Come into my room," Roland commanded after dinner. Ephraim pointed to himself, and his father nodded before standing up and walking away with a word. Ephraim sat on the table and waited for everyone to leave before he left. When his father had sent a message that he was supposed to be at the house for dinner that Sunday night, he knew that he wanted to talk about Chole, and even though he had shown up hours earlier, Roland had spoken about every other thing aside from what he had called his son for.Roland had waited till the end of dinner before asking his son to come in, and Ephriam knew that it meant serious business. Ephraim walked to the kitchen and requested the tea his father usually drank after each meal, and then he walked to the study to find his father.He stood by the door, balancing the tray in one hand and placing a knock on the door. "Come in," Roland's gruff voice came through. Ephraim cleared his throat and walked in."I brought tea," he declared. Roland looked up fr

Is the possible heir to the Quinn corporation in a relationship with his assistant?Noelle had expected the news to come out, but not so soon. She knew she was immune to the taunts and looks she was going to get from everyone, but it came too early. She barely even had enough time to marinate in the new relationship. As she walked across the lobby to the elevator, she could hear the way everyone tried to whisper, although she was convinced that they were pretending to whisper because they wanted her to hear what they were saying about her. She cleared her throat and pressed her lips together. She was trying her best to act as if she wasn't affected by all the noise, but it was not working; her heart ached at just the thought of it.She wondered how all humans acted the same; without even hearing if the media had made a mistake, they were already judging, and it was so annoying how everyone judged only her; was it because he was the man or because he was rich? However, how could she be

Noelle was not blaming Ronan because she knew this was Chloe's doing, but now that the board was involved, she was afraid. "What are you going to do now?" Her own problems suddenly felt so tiny in contrast to his.It was no news that some directors thought they were a better fit for the next chairman than Ronan and were looking for every opportunity to bring him down, and they were going to say his actions were tainting the company and try to use this to stop him from climbing to his rightful position."You do not have to worry about me; I just wanted you to know that everything on my schedule for the day has to be put on hold; I have to sort this out first before I can resume back to work," he explained."I understand," she nodded and watched him get out of his seat."I want you to do something for me," he said, taking careful steps towards her."What is that?" she asked, her eyes growing wide with excitement. She hoped he was not going to tell her to sit this one out and allow him t

Ronan stopped by his father's office and walked in; he could not help the glances of everyone that was on him as he walked to the office; he let himself in after a knock."You are here?" Elliot said, looking up from his desk. His assistant took the file he handed to him and bowed before leaving the room. "Come in," Elliot said as the man walked out of the office."What is this about?""I need to know what your full plan is," Elliot responded, shocked that his son was asking why he had called him in."The full plan is to put everyone in their place. I know that Chole and her father did this, and I am going to have a long conversation with both of them," Ronan replied as he realised he had not told Alfie he wanted to speak to him. He took out his phone and sent a text message to Alfie."Well, the board is raging, so I am sure you can do that after the meeting but I plan to announce you as my successor and also to let them know that you would be taking over in two weeks.""Two weeks? Why

Ronan got to the office of Alfie and was ushered in by a man who had been waiting for his arrival. He got into the office and saw Chole and Alfie waiting for him. As soon as Chole saw him, she stood up and waved at him. He looked away without sparing her a glance and sat down before Alfie could invite him to."I knew you were going to see me today, so I prepared some food for you. I will have them bring it now," Alfie said as he walked to the table to ask them to bring in the lunch."There won't be a need for that, as I will not be staying here for long. I have other plans and I am just here to put the record straight," Ronan said in the coldest voice he could muster. Chole gulped at the sound of it. She could tell from his expression and face that he was there to warn them sternly about what had happened. Of course, he could tell that it had come from them, and her father had more influence to pull something like this."What is one lunch that you can't have with us? I assure you that

"I am only wondering how you and Isla met," Elliot said as they sat down to drink. Clara had instructed the staff to bring out a bottle of wine for them to share. It had been quiet with each person sipping on their wine before Elliot broke it off. Marcus had been expecting the question so he was not surprised."We met during the party last time; she needed help with something and now that I think about it, she never told me what it was that she needed help with." Marcus trailed off as he looked at Isla, maybe wanting an explanation. Her response was a quick shrug as he sipped from the wine in hand."Oh, I see but I wonder what took her so long to introduce you to us," Clara chimed in. "I don't mean this. in the wrong way so don't take my words too wrongly but Isla can barely sit in one place for things like this," she said.Isla choked out as she began to realise that this was a wrong idea; she should not have invited him over, as her parents might do all they could to try and embarra

They all sat down to dinner; Isla seemed tense as her guest was yet to arrive. Elara was able to put two and two together to know who was coming. After the party, she and Isla spoke, and she could not deter her sister after she had confessed to falling for him. The truth was that it was possible to fall for someone at first sight, but she knew her sister was wise enough to make sure that she knew him well enough before they committed. When she had not heard an update as regards the matter, she had asked Isla, but the response did not seem encouraging, so she let it go; after all, Isla did not seem like she wanted to talk about it either."The guest is here," a staff member announced and Marcus came from behind the young girl. She bowed her head and walked off. Marcus stepped forward and Isla stood up. She searched her family's face to see the confusion written all over it; it was as if they were asking her what was going on."Come sit," Isla gestured to the open space opposite her and

"Elliot," Clara said as she rushed into the room they shared. "Elliot!" she screamed, entering the closet and stopping when he was nowhere to be found. He had just gotten home from work, and she received the news from a staff member. She had been waiting on him since she got information from Isla that she was having a guest. She was out in the garden, relaxing, trying to relax because her mind kept spinning as she thought of who her daughter could be bringing home. She had to admit that having three grown children and trying to keep in tune with them was quite taxing."Elliot," she said with a frown as she approached the bathroom; the door opened before she could reach for the handle, and Elliot stood between her and the door so she could neither see inside nor go in. "What are you doing here?" she asked, and he shook his head."Nothing? Then why...?" She trailed off as she realised he was intentionally trying to block her view. She frowned and tugged on his hand. "Why are you blockin

Isla did not think she would have to wait about a month after the party to hear back from Marcus. She did not want to reach out first; all she knew was he was the one who thought she was worth talking to first. She hated that her mind kept on going to him all day, but he was nowhere to be found. She leapt to pay attention to every news surrounding Old Mrs. Smith, and in each picture or video, she tried to see if he was in them, and he appeared missing. Sometimes she was angry that he had come to shake things up when she was dealing so perfectly with herself, and other times she was worried that something might have happened to him and no one was aware. Mrs. Smith had not announced him as her successor yet or even as her child, so if anything happened to him, no one would probably know."Why am I spending my day thinking about a man who did not care enough to reach out to me?" She asked herself with annoyance as she lay on the bed. She let out a deep breath and looked around before lan

TEN DAYS LATERChole is out for dinner with her friends. They dragged her out after hearing what had happened very recently to her and how sad everything turned out to be in the end. They kept on blaming her for losing Ronan after he had chosen her over the crowd of people around. Chole knew it was her fault, but she did not need a herd of people to tell her what she already knew. However, even though their accusations against her were a bit too much, she found the space to be relieving. She at least had people surrounding her. Her mood also improved slightly, especially when they spoke about other things.She had spent almost two weeks coupled up in her room; she only thought about how she was too proud to go back to Ephriam and how her father would try to disown her if she did and how Ronan had completely disregarded him. Her father's plan to humiliate him and Noelle had completely failed without a second thought. After a few days of gossip, everything was restored, and everyone was

"I can't believe you barged in here and let my parents catch on to what was happening," Elara said as she escorted Ezra out of the house."What was I supposed to do? I was worried about you, and I wanted to be sure you were fine," he replied, trying to defend himself."You could have called me instead of coming in here and giving it away. We tried so much to try and hide it, but you made all of that effort go to waste at once.""I gave it away? From what I recall your mom saying, you were the one having a certain kind of glow that she referred to as the... " He could not say anything more as her hand held his mouth shut."Don't complete that statement," she said, the corner of her eyes going up as she frowned at him."I was just trying to say what your mother said," he murmured through her hand."Well, don't," she warned, and he laughed before kissing her hands and wiping his tongue gently against them. "Eww," she took her hand off his mouth almost immediately as she looked from side

"But Dad...""Don't you dare say anything." Elliot was fuming. He could not imagine that, after all his daughter had gone through, she still thought it would be a good idea for them to let Micah go. "If you are kind, be wise about it.""Dad, it was a mistake, and I am sure that spending a night in the cell must have taught him a little about life," she replied.Elliot frowned and turned to his wife. He had tried his best, but it seemed like his daughter was not getting anything he was saying. Maybe if Clara tried to explain, she would understand it better."How do you know he has learnt?" Clara asked, and Elara opened her mouth to speak, but her mom raised her hand to stop her. "You do not know that; all you know is what kind of evil person he is. A person who thinks about drugging you—who knows what he can do if he is set loose? It is obvious that he is trying to get something, and do you think he is going to stop just because we locked him up for a day?" Clara hoped her words would

Cora could not bail out her son all morning after telling him that Zara had served him divorce papers and that it was the best for him to sign them. He listened to his mother because he also thought it was an opportunity for him to escape her; after all, he thought getting a divorce from her was his salvation. His mom assured him that she had a good plan that was going to get him out of there before the end of the day, and he needed to trust her because that was the only way he would stay sane.After a few hours, the officer came to see him and told him that the Quinn family had requested that he be moved to the headquarters, as that is where the case would be handled, so now he had to be moved in a police van back to the city."What is your plan?" Micah asked his mom. She looked at him and shook his head. Moving him from a small station like this to a big one meant that she could do nothing. Now that the Quinn family had taken over, they would do all in their power to make sure that

"What do you mean, your fault?" Ezra was thrown back by her words. She was the victim, and yet she was acting like everything that had happened happened because of her. "What do you mean?" he asked, taking her hand into his gently and rubbing it softly. "None of this is because of you," he added when her body shook from the soulful tears streaming down her face.He walked down from the car and went to her side of it, opening the door and turning her to him. He hugged her before murmuring silently that all was okay to her. He did not know how he was supposed to comfort her. After minutes of sobbing, she finally calmed down, and Ezra drove out of the place, taking her home.As soon as he was there, he was greeted by Clara, who was busy in the living room. "Ezra?" she said when she saw him walk in with her daughter. "Elara? Aren't you coming back tomorrow morning?" she looked from each of them, confused. Ezra carefully let Elara sit beside him before proceeding to explain the situation t
