"What are you doing coming in here?" Micah asked, looking at Zara dragging in her bags. He had watched her drag in all of the suitcases and had checked to see that they were the last of them.

"You are asking me the reason I came into my husband's house?"

"Your husband? Do you consider me your spouse because I do not consider you mine?

"Then go on to annul the marriage," she said with a shrug as she pulled the bag with her towards the master's bedroom.

"Where do you think you are going?" he asked, walking to her and holding her hand. She had humiliated him so much that he was going to be the talk of the town and a laughingstock for days now.

"To the bedroom," she said, confusion on her face. "Why are you asking so many questions?" she added.

"You expect us to live in the same house and you still think you can torture me to make us sleep in the same room?" He asked as if she had asked him to commit murder.

"Where do you want to sleep then?"

"I want to throw you out," he said, bit

    Micah could not understand how her mind worked; he was asking her to make money and all she thought about was cheating on him. "You do not consider this a marriage, so that means that I am free to do whatever I want to do," she said when he fell silent for a while."Zara, you are the meanest and most evil person I have met in a while," he said, his voice coming out silently. She laughed, her shoulders shaking, as she pulled her hand out of his."If you do not want to be disgraced further, I would advise you not to think of treating me any different from how you would have treated me if I were a Quinn.""You must be crazy to ask me for that," he said, his voice raising angrily."And you must be crazy to think that I would not use your money and all that belongs to you.""Zara, this is a warning...""And Micah, you know that if you had stayed with Elara, you would not be in this mess; you would have really become the son-in-law to Quinn," she said, a smile on her lips.As Zara mentioned

    Ronan finally looked up and could barely recognise where he was. He had been walking for a while now and since leaving the restaurant, he had spoken with Chole. He had been walking; he did not even know how long he had been walking. He took out his phone and stayed glued to a spot; it was then he felt pain running through his legs. He looked at his shoes and knew that they were not good shoes for walking long distances He noticed how quiet that part of town was. He pressed on the e-taxi app to order a ride; he would send some bodyguards to pick it up tomorrow for him but for now, he had to get back home. The ride service seemed to be busy but after waiting for about ten minutes, he finally got a taxi and was off to his house. He had been tired of the possibility of not ending up with Chole. He had everything figured out about that aspect of his life. They were going to get married during the year, have at least two children and live happily ever after. He had no idea that his fairyt

    Isla stepped out of the way; she could see the determined expression on the girl's face and she would be glad for the help. If Noelle could get him out of the room, then she would be grateful for it. "Mr. Quinn?" Her voice came out a bit thicker than she had spoken earlier. Isla wondered how the girl was able to change so easily. "Mr. Quinn?" she asked, knocking lightly. Noelle put her ears to the door, waiting to hear if he was moving out of bed. When silence returned to her ears, she took a step back and Isla frowned, thinking that she was giving up so easily.Noelle cleared her throat; Ronan had to drive out of the city to the countryside to visit some of the construction sites they were in charge of and if they would not spend the night there, they must be on their way already. She did not want to have to lie to him to get him out of the house but she knew that would be her only option now. "This is about Ms. Prescott," she said. The room was silent and suddenly footsteps began

    Ronan could not believe his ears; he did not want to believe that Chole would leave him and decide that she wanted to get married to the illegitimate son of the Santiagos family. Was this the doing of her father? As that question struck his mind, it somehow began to make sense. Maybe she was forced to do this. Maybe her father had a contract to sign with the Santiagos and it was not news to her that wealthy families used their children as collateral for their business. If that were the case, then he would try his very best to make sure that he helped her out; she had to get out of that toxic relationship with Ephriam. He was known to be a playboy and he would not be the best for her, no matter how he looked at it. Her father would not willingly allow her to get married to him while knowing all of this. He had to do something about it; somewhere in his mind he had all of the evil thoughts he had thought about Chole through the night wherever his mind gained consciousness. He raised hi

    "Why is there so much traffic?" Ronan muttered, looking up. They had been stuck in traffic for almost three hours now. They left the house and were already on their way to the countryside. The road was so blocked that there was no way out and no way in. The driver fidgeted as if he was the one who caused the traffic. Noelle cleared her throat and put her hand in her lap. "It seems like there has been an accident," she said calmly, using the same tone he had used with her. She looked at him in the mirror and watched his eyebrow furrow. Since they had been stuck in traffic, he had tried his best not to act and ask why, but when it was being prolonged, he could not help himself but voice out. "Can you ask the bodyguards in the other car to go out and check if they can help clear the traffic?" he asked. Noelle opened her mouth to protest but still, it would be the best thing for them all if the traffic moved and they were on their way. At this rate, they might have to sleep over in the

    "And so? What are you trying to say?" Ronan asked. Noelle knew she was not supposed to begin this discussion since she could lose her job over it but she was already doing it so why shouldn't she do it to the end? "I am sorry, sir but Ms. Prescott is a junkie and her being the next madam of the Quinn family is kind of absurd," Noelle muttered. Her tone was lower than earlier. She knew that Ronab could get angry even though they rarely saw him angry. "What do you mean by absurd?" He cleared his throat and shifted forward as if she was sharing some kind of wisdom and he wanted to learn from it. She swallowed and pushed herself a bit forward as well. She refused to turn to him and kept her eyes on the jam-packed road. "What I mean is that she is a junkie who has been caught many times." "And she always explains the situation to me. She never smoked all this time; it was always bad company." "And the last time?" The driver could no longer take the tension and opened the door. "Where

    "Why did you release the news about your wedding, and why did it get taken off so fast?" Janelle asked as he walked into Olivia-Marie's apartment. "I released the news about the wedding by mistake; we are going to wait a bit more," she lied. How could she tell Janelle that Ezra was going to break it off with her because his first love showed up from nowhere and that she was still holding on to him even though she had no dignity left?She was not even sure if she had a chance anymore after knowing that his first love was a Quinn; if she held onto him too long and the Quinn family wanted him, they could take him since they could take what they wanted and they had always gotten it. How could she turn herself into a laughingstock with her after all she had heard them discuss the last time?"I thought you were getting married in three months? If that is the case i dont think its too early to let everyone know," Janelle continued. She was faithful to Olivia-Marie and she was here to help h

    Elara did not know what she was doing but she was doing it. She knew that Ezra had a fiancée whom he was with, and she also knew that he was getting married to him but she kept convincing herself that it was just lunch. It was not as if she was sneaking around with him. They used to date but those feelings, especially on her own side, had been tucked away for a long time. When she got a call from Ezra asking for lunch, she thought it would be too cruel to keep turning him down. After all, one lunch did not hurt anybody. She had bought a bunch of clothes with nowhere to wear them to so this was a great opportunity for her after all. "Thank you for meeting me for lunch," Ezra said as they sat down. Elara looked around; it was quite strange to see a restaurant so quiet during lunch hour. "This place is awfully quiet," Elara murmured. "I guess so," he said with a shrug. "Shall we order first?" "Yeah." She took the menu before he could hand it to her and scrolled through it; she could

    "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

    Cora knew there was no escape for her now; all she could do was hold onto Elara and act as if she knew nothing. There was no way she could escape, and her entire plan seemed ruined."To what do we owe the pleasure of your coming here?" Cora asked; she was trying her best to act mature, but Ronan and Ezra already saw through the facade."We are here to pick up Elara Quinn; just tell us where she is and we won't make a scene and will be on our way without a word," Ronan said gently. He seemed more composed than Ezra, who was shaking with anger. All Ezra thought of doing was beating up the owner, but he knew that it was wrong to do so, and that would make them find Elara quickly; in fact, it might even make it worse for them."You are making a dangerous claim right now," Micah said, standing up, and you, more than anyone, should know that it is wrong to frame someone for something they have not done."Have not done? You know fully well that your mother is the one behind the kidnapping of

    Micah sat in shock after hearing all that the lawyer explained to him; he stared at the man hoping that he would begin to laugh at how gullible he was and that none of that had happened. When the lawyer did not look like he was about to laugh, he hoped that he would be rudely shaken from this dream he seemed to be having and every tug in his life would be back to the time before he lost Elara."Why on earth would you allow her to do that?" Micah asked, picking at each word gently. He wanted to scream and pull out the hair of his lawyer, but he knew that was not going to make anything better; it might even make it worse if he did not take care."She is the only one who can sign off for you, and all the documents had your legal signature and stamp." Micah could understand how she got the stamp, but how could she get the signature? It made no sense except that she forged it. Why did she forge his signature? What was she trying to get by forging it to sell off all they had? Has she done th

    "Mr. Micah Swanson, you are free to go," the officer said, unlocking the cell door and opening the gate. Micah stood up from the floor where he had been and walked to the gate. It made no sense because just yesterday Ezra had threatened to make sure he spent the rest of his life behind bars since Elara was still missing and Micah did not say a word about it."To go where?" Micah asked with a frown."To go home""Am I free to go home?""Do you need me to get an interpreter for you?" the officer asked angrily. He hated that Ezra and Ronan had walked in there and asked them to let Micah go without allowing them to do their jobs, but there was no way they could say no to them. It was more of an order than a request, and since both families were involved, the officer would rather keep his job than go head-to-head with them."I just won't understand why you would let me go without an explanation," Micah said, still staying inside the cell. He felt some kind of chill fill his entire body; he

    "Ezra Are you sure this would work?" Clara asked with tears in her eyes. It had been four days since Elara had gone missing and the media had gotten a whiff of it. No one knew how this happened because they had been careful enough but there was a link to sow who might have leaked it to the media and none of them cared who leaked the information; all they cared about at that moment was finding Elara and making sure she was alive."Ezra, Daddy has enough to pay the ransom and bring her back home," Isla added. Unfortunately, for every six hours that they spent waiting, the ransom kept on going up, and now they were up to one hundred sixty million. The kidnappers had threatened to beat her up in the next six hours, and Ezra had come up with a plan. The viability of the plan was not certain, but they wanted to do anything to make sure that Elara came back to them alive."I have the money and I would pay; I wouldn't ask you for a dime. We know that Cora and Micah are behind this, even thoug

    "She is being a bit difficult. What do you want me to do?" one of the men said over the phone before aggressively pushing out a whiff of smoke from his mouth. The other man took the cigarette from his hand and blew on it before returning it to him."Make the ransom call, but make sure that they are not able to trace it to me," Cora said silently over the phone. Remember that you would be the one to take the fall for anything that happens." Cora wanted them to know she had no part in the situation, even though she was the mastermind behind it."We understand.""One hundred million and my son.""What about our payment?" the man asked. This was the most dangerous job that they had ever taken, but they took it because of the risk involved. If they can coax the money from the Quinn family, then they would get to walk away with thirty million without sweating, as they have always done in the past."I told you that after we get the ransom, then you get your payment," Cora said angrily. She d

    Micah did not want to believe that his mother would go so low to do something like this. It made no sense because everyone who had a working brain could trace it back to her without any issues. "Can I request a call?" He asked the officer as he dragged him back to the cell he had been."You can't" the man's voice was firm and Micah could tell that bargaining was going to be hard. "Please you have to help me or else I might end up suffering something I never did" Ezra said trying to stop him from dragging but the man was obviously stronger than him. "Please, don't I have the right to a phone call at least" he added in an almost crying tone. He knew it was possible that the Quinn family had cut off his communication line but then considering how things were going he would not blame them if they did. "I can't offer that to you at this time, maybe try later" the man said and pushed him into the cell without a word before walking away his ears deaf to the continuous plea from the man be
