Jacob has asked his assistant Roger to set up a meeting with Elliot. Even knowing that the man did not accept visitors or business meetings on the weekend, Jacon still expected a positive result from his assistant, who got it done. Elliot welcomed Jacob into his home and even straight to his study on a Saturday morning, which was strange to everyone around."Dad is having a visitor?" Isla asked her mother as the three of them sat down around a table. They had seen Elliot lead Jacob away as soon as he arrived. Clara did not have the chance to offer him anything to eat or drink."I guess there must be something important to discuss with Jacob," Clara replied. She too was not aware of the reason that Jacob was there. She wanted to know but she was not going to barge into the meeting room and demand to be a part of it; she was sure that her husband would tell her after they were done speaking."Seeing that you reached out to me on a weekend, I am guessing it might be something important,"

"Thank you for the offer but...""You have to stay." Elliot cut him off before he could create an imaginary excuse. Both Elliot and Clara could tell that he needed the company and they were willing to at least help him that afternoon."Well, if you insist," he said and two of them laughed."Okay then, I am setting the table so both of you should come down in a few seconds," she said and walked away."Are you sure I am not being an inconvenience?" Jacob asked as soon as Clar was out of hearing shot."Not at all; we like having meals with people." Elliot was trying to make it sound less of a big deal."Then I guess I have to take up your offer."Soon they left the room after agreeing to make them meet once and the children would decide for themselves. Elliot made it clear that he was not going to matchmake or force his daughter into any marriage and this was the furthest he was willing to go on this matter. They all sat down and after saying the grace led by Elliot, they began to eat.E

Elara stood by the other side of the door; the words of both Clara and Isla seemed to be ingrained in her mind. As she took a step, she kept praying that her father had not been given an irresistible deal. She hoped that her mother was right and Isla was wrong; the only thing that made her hesitate was that Isla was barely wrong about things like this. She took a deep breath and knocked on the door."Come in." Elliot's voice was loud but audible enough.She took a deep breath again as if to gather all the courage and then held the doorknob, turning and then pushing it open. "Come in and sit." Elliot was sitting on the sofa and he was asking her to sit in front of him."What is this about, Dad?" she asked, trying to make her voice sound light."Have you seen Ezra since you came back?" Elliot asked straight. He figured that there was no reason to beat around the bush."I have seen him about three times," Elara replied. "Is this about his fiancée? Does Jacob not want me to see him becaus

Cora showed up at the front door of her son's house. Micah had told her that he took out a loan to fund the wedding since Zara had insisted on luxury items even though she knew he could not afford them. Micah had thought that being with her was going to elevate his status so when he was taking out the loan, he did not really bother about the repercussions but now that it was all coming back, the bank wanted to take his mother's house since that was what he used as collateral for the loans. Cora rang the doorbell and waited.Zara wondered who it could be. Micah moved to one of the rooms away from hers and did not allow any contact between them. She knew that getting pregnant was out of the question now since he was not touching her and all of the tests she had done came back negative. He barely rang the doorbell because he also wanted to have little to no contact with her at all. She had imagined her married life being tough because of the lies but she could not lie; Miach was being qu

Zara stood by the door; she knew there was nothing much she could do but she wanted to hold off for as long as she could. She paced around the door because she knew any time from then, Micah was going to show up and set his mom up in one of the rooms. She stopped the pacing when she heard Cora speak over the phone."Hello Micah, that stupid excuse you call a wife is refusing me entry into the house," she said in a pained tone. Unfortunately, the line was not on loudspeaker so she could not hear Micah's response but Cora spoke almost immediately. "Am I supposed to keep standing outside while waiting? The neighbours are staring."For a moment, Zara had thought that Micah was defending her but that thought disappeared immediately; there was no way he would try to defend her. She caused his other to come to live with them. How could he do that?"I don't know, just do something about this; either you call her or you come home and let me in, but I can't stay outside any longer," Cora said i

Cora and Micah stood there with shock visibly written all over their faces. Cora had thought that Zara would be a foolish one, the kind they could ride and make her do whatever they wanted her to do but looking at how things turned out, she was sure that they would barely be able to make her do anything at all. "You stood there and watched her slap me?" Cora said, turning to her son. She lifted her hand slowly and held her cheek. "You allowed her to slap your mother?" Cora continued. "Did you expect me to slap her?" Micah asked. She could call the police on them if they raised their hands to her and their names on the news were enough; they did not know to show up again. "You should have done something about it," Cora replied, almost crying. "What should I have done?" Micah said and walked away. Cora followed him to the room he had been putting up. "She kicked you out of the master's bedroom?" she asked, shocked as she walked into the room. Micah had all of his clothes scattered

Zara had not been expecting to get attacked by her mother-in-law so she was defenceless for a moment but it did not last long as she jumped in and held the woman by the hair as well. The woman was older so she knew that tugging on her hair could lead to hair loss but she didn't mind at all; there was no way she would sit on her hands and allow them to bully her. She married Micah and this was her house as much as it was theirs."Zara? What the hell do you think you are doing?" Micah rushed to them and held her hand, hoping that his grip on her hands would soften, but it seemed as if he was encouraging her to tighten her grip. "Let go," he said when she did not let go despite his efforts."Tell her to let go first," Zara said, her voice ragged as if she had been fighting and heavy breaths coming from both her nose and mouth."You let go; do you want to pull out all of her hair?" Micah continued. Cora was quieter than Zara expected; she had not expected the girl to pull on her hair as w

"You stand there and watch her disrespect me so much?" Cora turned to her son as soon as she was sure that Zara was nowhere close again."What do you want me to do? To be fair, you started it.""I started it?" Cora scoffed as she searched the entire house as if there was an audience who was going to judge between them. "You were right here when she referred to me as the amid? She made it seem as if I came in here to make meals for the both of you. As if you hired me because you wanted to spend your honeymoon days together."As soon as Micah heard the word honeymoon, he felt as though he had to go after Zara and just do something to her. He was so angry and he knew that he did not want to spend a single time with her so he cancelled the honeymoon plans she made him book. It cost him money for cancelling so close to the date but at least he was able to get some money back."Mom, can we please just eat? I do not have the energy to do this."Of course you don't." Cora turned to the table

Elara could not seem to get the thought of Ezra out of her mind; she felt so warm that he had come to see her so early in the morning and he had even brought freshly squeezed orange juice and some bread. She knew that his kitchen staff would have had to wake up extra early to get it done and that meant a set of people were inconvenienced, but the thought mattered a lot to her.She had spent the day trying her best to get a painting done; she had spent almost a month here at home but still, her creativity seemed to stop at a point. She was lying on her bed scrolling through social media when a post popped out of nowhere. Suddenly she was going viral for reasons she did not know.People before had mercy on her for what Micah had done to her but now they were calling her a gold digger that did not care about her family status. She for her life, could not understand why she was being called that or addressed that way; it made no sense and she had not done anything to get treated like that

'Pregnant?" Cora stuttered as she snatched the test out of her hand, scrutinising it as if she were hellbent on finding something amiss with it. She could not kick her out now if she was truly pregnant, in truth. "How do we know this is not fake?" she followed up, turning her nose up. She planned to kick her out and get a better wife for her son. She would do whatever it took to make him richer; if she did not, then Eliana and her husband were going to mock her."We three can go to the hospital tomorrow" Zara replied. Unlike before, she seemed confident about going to the hospital for a test."You seem confident and it makes me wonder, if you were pregnant, then why did the test bring back negative earlier?" Cora asked. Micah did not want to be standing there and he wished the living room was big enough for him to slip off without getting noticed."I was going to explain that to you but it seemed like you did not want to listen to it," Zara said, shrugging as if nothing was wrong. "I

Cora had been waiting for Micah to get back; they had not told her about the test results for the pregnancy test they went to do and if the stick test had been inaccurate. He expected her son to come to tell her how it went, but for some reason, he did not, and he found a way to change the topic or escape anytime she brought it up. She had been tired of waiting, so she went to confront Zara, and it did not go well. She wondered why she thought in the first place that anything could go well with Zara."What took you so long?" Cora asked as soon as she opened the door and Micah stepped in."Is something urgent?" Micah asked. He looked more stressed these days than ever."It better be something urgent" he had learned over time that his mother was a bit dramatic about situations."Of course it is; let us talk in my room so we don't have her listening in," Cora added and began to look around."Mom, if it is not as urgent as you say, then I think...""Why on earth wouldn't it be urgent?

Noelle rubbed her hand on her pants; she was glad that she had chosen a black one as opposed to the white one she was considering in the morning. It had been more than a week since she and Ronan spent the night together but her heart skipped a beat every time she saw him now. It had never been news to her that Ronan was a desirable man; even some women would regard him as sexy but she had never seen him that way. He was her boss and it would be wrong for her to do so. Now she felt her heart surge out of her chest every time he came around the corner when he spoke or when she had to walk behind or beside him. She found her mind constantly going back to him no matter how many times she tried to clean up her mind.How could spending just one night with him change her this much? It made absolutely no sense. She watched him smile at the camera, he was taking an interview and she could not tell why her palms were constantly sweating out as she watched him, this was not the first time she h

"What do you think you are doing?" Elara whispered as she stood up, almost clutching her sister's hand in desperation. She could not believe that her sister had picked up the call and was now talking with Ezra. She could not hear what he was saying but could see the expression on her face was all smiles."I will put her on right away," Isla replied. She took the phone off her ears and dropped it in her hand alongside an encouraging smile."What is it?" Elara asked as she took the phone and gently placed it on her ears."Hi, Elara. Good morning, did you sleep well? I am so sorry that I did not send a response immediately last night; something came up and when we see each other in person, I will explain it to you." His words came pouring out of his mouth at once before he stopped to take a deep breath."It is fine," Elara forced herself to say. She could not tell him that she had stayed awake for most of the night trying to fall asleep since he did not respond. She wondered if she was a

Elara stared at her phone; she could not understand why Ezra had not responded. She did not want to make a big deal out of it but she had thought that with the way he was after her, he would have responded immediately. She glanced at the clock and then murmured to herself. "Elara, you are overthinking this." Somehow she could not help herself; she was even shocked that after the heartbreak she had been through just recently, she had thought of the possibility of getting into another one. Was she trying to rebound? She could not help but overthink; had she been too easy? Did she allow him to talk her into it? Was he now thinking it through? She sat on her bed and put her phone on the nightstand. Lying in the bed, she pulled the covers over her body. She had to force herself to sleep even though she knew that her mind would be raging with all kinds of thoughts; she would wish that he would end something for her even if it were some gibberish that made no sense. She lay in bed for a w

"I came here because I can't give up on you," she said. She had drunk the water he put by the bed and felt a bit better. She had been drinking every night since they met Elara at the store because she had no idea what to do. She was the master of scheming and still nothing made sense to her; she had no idea what to do."Even after I have told you countless times that we can't be together?" he asked. He could not understand how she was so hung up on her. "Ezra, you know that I cut off all ties with my family and moved out here with you." "I told you not to do any of that but you insisted. Every decision in this relationship has been taken solely by you" he interjected. He did not want to hear her make it seem as if he asked her to move out there with him and promised her a life only to then change his mind in the end. "But Ezra..." "Olivia-Marie, I gave in to everything you asked of me before now because I thought there was no chance for me but now that I know that there is a way f

Ezra struggled to get her inside and to bed because she kept acting up. She kept on speaking about wanting to get back together. Ezra knew it was impossible but with her state, how could he tell her that he had just gotten back from a date with Elara and she did not stand a chance? If she slept over there, he would tell her in the morning, and maybe they would find a way to end things in the right way and both be out of each other's hair.As soon as he stepped out of the room that he prepared for her, he met his father by the door. "Why did you bring her in here?" he asked without waiting for any pleasantries."She was drunk outside all by herself; I did not want to give her the wrong idea by driving her home," Ezra replied."Mr. Nice Guy, why would you need to drive her home?" Jacob asked, causing Ezra to stare at him in confusion. Was his father suggesting that he leave her out in the open? That would have been too wrong of him to do."Should I have let her out there?""What about c

"I had the best time today," Elara said as they stood before her car door. The driver had hurried down to help her with the door but Ezra had waved him down before he could get to them and the man understood it immediately. He stopped in his tracks and got back in the car."So you are saying that you are glad you came out this evening?" he asked and she smiled, knowing what he was trying to say. \"Thank you, Ezra." She turned to the car and tried to pull it open but his hands hovered over hers and without as much contact as necessary, she felt herself catch a breath. Her hand fell from the handle to her side as she tried to steady her breathing with her hand clutching onto itself by its side. He pulled the door open, very aware of what he had done while choosing to act as if nothing had happened.She mustered together all of the courage she had left and slid into the car quickly. She turned to him and smiled at him while murmuring a light thank you. "Thank you too," he said and then
