Harris cuts Jules off and pulls her closer to him. Jules gasped, and turn to Harris with a wide eye. To say she was stunned was an understatement, Did Harris just call her his girlfriend in front of everyone?Jules immediately tilts her gaze back to Harris and whispers, "What are you doing?" Then to Sasha who had a calm demeanor.For some reason, she felt that the older-looking woman in front of her was not someone she should mess with. Although Sasha had a calm and innocent face, there was this dark glint in her eyes that screamed danger."Please Mrs.Scott, just play along. She's my girlfriend and I want to get rid of her. She is too clingy and possessive. Please do this for me, and I'll be forever indebted to you," Harris whispered back.For the second time that night, Jules was stunned as she stare at Sasha. She was stunned because Sasha looked way older than Harris. She looked like someone in her mid-thirties while Harris was only twenty-four.'Why would he date someone older? Ma

The little girl gave the man a suspicious look but decided to follow the man since he could get her into the club.As they walked into the club, they attracted a lot of attention. And people wondered how someone could bring his daughter or little sister to the club. How strange? Doesn't he know she's a minor?The man and the little girl both ignored the people's stares and gossip and marched into a different VIP section of the club and once they were sitted, the man tilts his gaze to the little girl. "So Harley Scott, what brings you to the club?"A surprised look flashed across Harley's face as she wondered how the man knew her. Although Harley was not as popular as her father and brothers Hero and Harris, some people still knew her from the few functions she attended with her family."Who are you, and how did you know my name?" Harley asked, raising her eyebrow in question.The man chuckled softly, then he said, "I'm Mason clay. Also, your brother Hero and I are business partners."

Jules, Harris, and Harley tiptoed into the house like thieves, glancing around to make sure no one was in sight. Despite the fact that the living room was dim, they could still make out the stairs and where they were headed to."Chubby, this is all your fault. If you didn't tag along We wouldn't be sneaking into our own house like criminals," Harris whispered, finding it ridiculous that he had to sneak into his own home. He, a profound celebrity. The heartthrob of all the single ladies in town, sneaking around, just to avoid his father and brother, that to in the middle of the night.Even though he wouldn't openly admit it, Harris was scared of his elder brother_Knowing the type of person he was. He doesn't take such matters lightly, especially when it involves Harley. If he knew she went with them to a nightclub, they would surely not hear the end of it.Although it wasn't entirely their fault, because Harley sneaked into the car without them knowing, they couldn't help but be discr

Hero was filled with rage as he stared at different pictures of Jules and Harley in a nightclub.'So that vile woman took Harley to a club, and she had the guts to ask me why I cared,' He thought as his grip on the phone tightened.What made him angrier was the fact that Harley had lied to him without thinking twice about it. She did so just to save that woman's skin.In the past, Harley would always tell him the truth regardless of the consequences, however, ever since Jules came into the picture, she became the complete opposite. She lied to him with ease.It now seemed like the more Jules stayed with them, the more narrow-minded Harley became. Thinking about that, Hero, felt like he had to do something to save his family from the clutches of the vile woman. However, he had no idea what to do.Sighing, he gave the picture one more look, before tossing his phone on the bed. Nonetheless, he hastily picked it up again as if recalling something.Yes! He recalled that there was an applic

Later that day, Hero picked his grandmother up from the airport, and on their way back, he filled her in on all that was happening at home, even about the new wife their father had married, and how vile and cunning she was.Old lady Scott(Emelia) listened attentively to her grandson with a strange glint in her eyes. 'So Harper got a new wife and he didn't tell me about it_The nerve of that man! Just because he has four children, he thinks he can do whatever he likes without telling me,' Emelia Scott thought, with a scowl on her face.She was not happy at all, especially hearing that the woman her son married was very young and a gold digger, who is only after their family fortune.She already hated Whoever the woman was and thought of ways in which she would deal with both her(Jules) and her son(Harper Scott)...Once Hero arrived at the Scotts mansion with his grandmother, Mr.Harper, Harris, and Hardin were waiting outside to welcome her. However, Jules was absent as she got a call f

Meanwhile, Jules was unaware of the storm that awaits her at the Scott mansion, so she stayed longer at the hospital since she barely got time to visit her mom...She was happy that her mother was improving, and at any moment, she would wake up from her coma, as the doctor had said.However, there was still this guilty feeling that surges through her whenever she thinks about what would happen after her mother's recovery, and when she'd leave the Scott mansion.Will the others also see her as a gold digger when they find out she was never married to their father but pretended to, just for money?They might probably be disappointed in her and even start to hate her just like Hero and Hardin do now. Thinking about it, Jules became scared_ for some reason she didn't want Harley and Harris to hate her, perhaps because she was already so familiar with them, or due to the fact that she barely had any friends or people in life, as she was always busy running around for money....It was eve

"Mother, it was love at first sight," Mr.Harper cuts Jules off, saying the first thing that came to his mind.Everyone turns to look at him in surprise, even Jules tilts her gaze to Mr. Harper. 'Love at first? No one would believe that' Jules mulled, tilting her gaze back to Emelia, who looked stunned.She was quiet for a while, before bursting into a peal of laughter. "Love at first sight! You must be joking Harper. Do you expect me to believe that? No, do I look like a fool," Emelia said in between laughter.Although she was laughing, it was not out of amusement but infuriation. She didn't believe her son would just fall in love with Jules at first sight. So it was either he said that to stop her from questioning Jules further, or he lost his mind. Besides, she didn't believe in love at first sight.On the other hand, the Scott siblings almost laughed at their father's outburst. Harris and Harley couldn't help but chuckle at how adorable their father looked when he blurted out 'lov

Meanwhile, Emelia sat down in the living room, watching a tv series. Although she seemed concentrated on the show, her mind was somewhere else. She was thinking about her young daughter-in-law, with hopes that she wouldn't be able to finish cooking on time, or better still her food should be poorly cooked. That way, she would have another reason to scold her.On the other hand, Hero and Harris walked into the living room, pausing abruptly to look at their grandmother. "Why is she dressed like that?" Harris whispered to his elder brother who rolled his eyes and said, "How would know?" Before walking toward their grandmother to greet her.'He's so mean. He doesn't even treat me like his brother,' Harris thought, before following suit."Good morning grandma," Hero and Harris said at the same time bringing the old woman's attention to them.Emelia smiled, as she tilts her gaze in her grandchildren's direction. For a while, she forgot about Jules and faced them."Hero, when are you gettin

Meanwhile, an evil smirk played around the corner of Sasha's lips as she stood on the balcony where she could see the family members at the dining table, except Hero and Jules who were absent.She immediately sent a text to someone, before putting the small phone away. Then she took out her iPhone and sent a text message to Emelia. Although she knew that what she was doing was cliche and immature, she didn't care as long as she achieved her goal. On the other hand, Jules was just about to walk out of her room when she got a text message. "Come to my room, and make sure you bring Hero along."Jules stare at the message in confusion, mulling over why would Emelia would text her with a hidden number. Probably because she doesn't want me to have her contact.' Then she shrugged off the thought and decided to call Hero instead.Scrolling through her contacts, Jules gasped when she realized that she didn't have Hero's number and decided to go to his room instead, although, for some reason

Jules shrieked in horror and instantly moved away from the package.'Why didn't I think of that? What if a bomb is really in there? I could have died just now,' she mulled over, before going to stand behind Hero, likewise Bryan."Mr.Scott the package is meant for you, so you should open it," As she was short, she had to stand on her tiptoe to whisper it in his ears.Hero glanced at the woman, who was holding onto with a slight hint of amusement in his eyes, before tilting his gaze in the direction of the package.He eyed the package for a while before saying, "Bryan you should open it."Bryan gasped. "No way boss! I'm afraid I'll have to decline your order this time. The package clearly states that it's for Hero, and my name is Bryan, not Hero," Bryan stated, bobbing his head frantically.Both Jules and Bryan held on to Hero as if he was their life support_their only saving grace at that moment.Seeing that none of them were willing to open it, Hero sighed and decided to open it inste

Bryan let out a deep breath and retorted. "I already did that boss.""So did you find out who was behind it?" Hero inquired with keen interest."Actually boss, the person goes by the name Mr.Macaroni and he's anonymous. No picture or information about the person. We also couldn't trace the source," Bryan replied and Hero scoffed.'Mr. Macaroni, such a ridiculous name! I wonder who that is' Hero mulled, before saying "When is then meeting?""It's in five minutes time boss." Hero nodded. "Let's go," he told Bryan, before walking ahead. Bryan followed Hero but not before giving the image on his tablet one last look.It was an image of Jules and Mason at the hospital. Although Bryan had wanted to show it to Hero, he decided against it, knowing that his boss might probably get upset after seeing it. Besides, the picture of Mason and Jules might be deleted soon like the previous ones, or so he thought.After all, It seemed like someone was deliberately removing the photos of Mason and Jule

Unlike the previous day, the family members except for Emelia Scott left home for both work and school. Even Jules had to return to work in order to prevent the other workers from gossiping or saying she was getting special treatment because she was probably dating their boss.After they left, it was Emelia Scott and Sasha at home. Sasha walked up to Emelia who sat in the garden as she had nothing to do."Ma'am Emily, don't you feel bored sitting here all by yourself? I should keep you company," Sasha said, calmly. Although she had other alternatives, apart from keeping Emelia company. Since she had planned to get Jules thrown out of the Scotts mansion, she decided that it was the best time to put her plan in motion. And also get the answers to her question.On the other hand, Emelia swiveled in Sasha's direction, before letting out a faint smile. "Come sit here Sasha," She ushered Sasha to the seat opposite hers.Not only Sasha had questions but Emelia also had a question of her own

"Hero, the truth is that I...Jules paused for a while after saying that and glanced up to meet his gaze."You give me your word that if I tell you the truth, you won't tell the family about what happened between us," she whispered, although he could still hear her. Hero sighs impatiently before saying with gritted teeth "I give you my word."Jules then stood on her tiptoe and whispered into his ears. "I wonder why you want to know if I'm married to your dad? Is it because you like me...anyway the truth is that I'm married to your dad."Immediately after she said that the door swung open revealing Sasha. "What the hell is going on here?" She yelled, and Jules hastily pulled away from Hero. Sasha's lips curve into a smirk, and she moved closer to them and asked mockingly. "Did I interrupt something?" "You didn't. Nonetheless, you should have knocked before entering my room," Jules retorted calmly while rolling her eyes."Are you anger because I didn't knock or because I interrupted

"Wife? Is Jules Mr.Harper's wife?" Sasha inquired, after hearing what Hardin had said. She had a curious look on and face and wanted to be sure she heard it right before jumping to a conclusion.However, everyone remained mum, heightening her curiosity even more. "Lady Scott is it true?" Sasha directed her question at Emelia, who sighed and wanted to speak up, however, Mr.Harper chipped in instead."Miss Sasha, It's our family matter, I don't think it concerns you," He said to her, earning a surprised look from everyone except Jules.They had expected him to tell Sasha that yes Jules was his wife, nonetheless, it was the other way around.Meanwhile, Sasha said nothing but she felt embarrassed and disappointed. Although Mr.Harper told her off, she was still keen on getting her answer sooner or later."Sorry for interfering in your affairs," Sasha retorted in a pitiful tone.Nevertheless, no one said anything after that. Emelia just urged everyone to eat as the food was getting cold...

Jules and Harley swiveled in the direction to see Harris standing there, with a look of horror plastered all over his face.He silently prayed that Harley was not talking about the same Sasha he knew.On the other hand, Jules felt pity for him, but at the same time, she found his expression funny. While Harley knitted her brow in confusion and repeated. "Yes, Sasha!""How do you know her?" She went further to ask. From the look on her brother's face, Harley couldn't help but feel as if Harris knew the Sasha she was talking about...Meanwhile, Harris snapped out of his thoughts. It's probably another Sasha, however, when Jules said "It's the same Sasha from the club." Harris almost died from a heart attack."No, it can't be. What the hell is she doing here?" He unintentionally yelled.Seeing his behavior, Harley's suspicion increased. 'Could Sasha be one of Harris's numerous girlfriends? No, it can't be. Sasha looks way older,' she mulled. Before saying, "Brother, miss Sasha is going

Emelia let out a burst of sheepish laughter, as she didn't know how to answer her son. There's no way she would tell him that the woman standing in front of him was his prospective bride and she was going to be living with them. She knew that he would be furious and never agree to it and she didn't want him to send Sasha away as she and Peggy have been long-time friends.Avoiding his gaze, Emelia said, "Uhm...you see, Sasha here is Peggy's daughter.""I already know that mother. What I want to know is what she's doing here...that too with her luggage?" Mr.Harper asked suspiciously.Emelia sighed as she didn't know what to say. She was lost for words and excuses. After a few seconds of silence, she tilts her gaze to Sasha, silently asking her for help. After all, it was Sasha's mom who put her in such a dilemma.Seeing the look on Emelia's face, Sasha immediately figured out that Emelia needed help so she intervened."Sir Scott, you know my mother and Emelia have been friends for yea

Although she couldn't really make out everything he was saying, she still heard something like last night, and Jules, making her tremble slightly.Could Hero have told his father about last night? She pondered. And at that moment, both Hero and Mr.Harper whirled in her direction.Feeling guilty and scared at the same time, Jules didn't know what came over her, and she started to babble. "It's not what you think, I didn't mean to do it," she tells Mr.Harper while picking on her nails. She didn't want the same man who respected her even though she was younger than he was to see her as a vile person. Mr.Harper, however, knitted his eyebrow in question "What do you mean, dear?" He inquired, feeling confused. On the other hand, Hero's lips instantly curved into a smirk as he understood what Jules meant.'Such a fool! She thinks I told dad that she molested me. Why would I do that when nothing really happened?' He mulled, staring at Jules in amazement. He couldn't believe that she was so
