“I... I’ll hand over the bidding project to Sylvester,” I said during the family dinner.

It’s been three days since me and Vester had that conversation. I weighed all the possible choices, possibilities and everything before making this decision. As much as I want to take the risk, I just can’t. I realized that if I fail, my status in the family would be worst; and it will not benefit my child.

I saw their shock faces, including Cameron’s who’s standing meters away from the back of my father.

“Why? You had that trip to Las Vegas! I expected so much from you! Did you just waste your time there and partied instead of working?!” Grandfather angrily said.

“I’ll compensate you with the expenses, but I made up my mind. Vester will be handling the project from now on.”

“You already started it, shouldn’t you at least finish it to save your pride, at least?” Stefano said. He didn’t even glance at me and just continued slicing his steak.

“That’s what I’m doing, saving my pride. I don’t want to

    Today, I’ll be attending a fashion brand event as a brand ambassador. Cameron is driving the car and I’m seating silently at the backseat. We haven’t talk for two days, since we had that argument about me handing over the project to Sylvester.I don’t know why he’s too affected. I hate doing that too but what choice do I have?I was going to speak but he spoke first.“We have arrived, miss.” Damn, he’s still upset. Is he disappointed that I won’t have a position in our company? I really don’t want to overthink but I’m getting suspicious on his real motive towards me.He opened the car door on my side and I glanced at him before stepping out. I entered the event hall and Cameron is just following me. I saw my distant cousin, or whatever she is in the family chart, Irene with her fiancé and Bria. They saw me and immediately approached me.“Well, looks who’s here. My dear cousin—”“Distant cousin,” I said even before Irene could finish her words. She just rolled her eyes on me.“Hi my br

    We are now inside the venue and everyone is just busy interacting with each other. I really don’t know how everyone is not tired of seeing each other’s faces. I mean, Casterdale isn’t that big, and business events are frequent, so we get to see each other like three to fives times a year or even more. I really feel suffocated in this event so I decided to freshen up on the bathroom. I was doing my business inside the cubicle when I heard two women talking about me. “Did you hear the rumor about Savannah Harris?” “Which one?” “There are rumors saying that she got kidnapped in Las Vegas.” “Huh? I just saw her.” “Yeah, probably she’s saved or whatever. Anyway, the thing is, they say that the one who ordered her kidnapping is one of her brothers.” “What?! Really? Who told you that?” “Irene.” “Irene Morgan?” “Yeah, Irene is a distant cousin of the Harris siblings so it’s possible for her to know that kind of information.” “You know what, that family seems perfect but I keep hear

    An hour later, everyone else arrived. I immediately approached and slapped Sylvester as soon as he entered the mansion.“You traitor! How can you just steal every credit like that?! You worked hard for it alone? I didn’t ask you for too much but you promised me!”“Savannah that’s enough!” dad loudly yelled. “This is an important day for us and the company! Stop acting like this!” I faced and glared him.“Right, you won’t care on whatever mistake Vester did tonight because you’re also like him, likes to steal other’s ideas and hard work.” I didn’t expect it but dad slapped me. I saw mom gasped in shock.“How dare you say that! You don’t have respect to your own father!” I turned back to him and smirked.“Why? Is it not true? You’ve been stealing mom’s hard work for years, haven’t you? That’s why it’s easy for you to tolerate your sons to do the same.” I walked closer to him and made sure to stare at him with full of anger. “If mom just let you go on your way, then know that I’m differe

    I woke up in a hospital room. I repeatedly blinked and rub my eyes to clear my vision. I looked around the room and saw my mom sleeping on a chair beside my hospital bed.“M-Mom...Mom,” I called her. She woke up and immediately approached me worriedly.“Savannah! Are you okay? Does it hurt anywhere?” I realized what happened to me so I suddenly panicked.“M-My baby! My baby! What happened to my baby?!” I worriedly asked as I hold onto my belly.“Relax, your baby is safe. Your child is strong so don’t worry.” I felt relieved after hearing that. “Why didn’t you tell me that you’re pregnant? I could have helped you.”“I’m sorry mom. But... what happened to me?”“You passed out and had a bleeding because of stress. You were so emotional earlier so it affected your baby and then bleed and passed out. The doctor said that you and your baby will be fine. You just have to rest and stay away from stress.” It became silent for a few minutes. I can’t believe this is how I decided to tell them ab

    It’s been two days and I’m preparing to leave for Australia. I thought that it’s better for my child to stay away from this toxic family. I can’t let him or her grow up with evil people around her.I haven’t talked with Cameron yet. He got fired after trying to restrict dad and grandfather’s entry in the hospital. We will meet later up on the hill and I’m planning to tell and convince him about my decision. I’m leaving tomorrow, hopefully with Cameron, for Australia.I’m currently busy packing my things when Skyler knocked and entered my room. He sat beside me on the bedroom floor and hugged me.“Stop acting like a little kid, Sky.”“Are you really leaving? Can’t you just stay?”“You’ve asked that to me five-hundred times by now. My answer will not change.” He lets go of me and leans on the bed.“All of this is happening because of Sylvester! How can he still have the guts to live here after what he did?! I never liked him, anyway.”“You always follow him around ever since you were yo

    I am now at the airport and currently waiting for my flight to start boarding. Mom and Skyler are with me, Stefano didn’t come because of a meeting but he said his goodbyes. I am sitting and anxiously looking around trying to find Cameron. I don’t know what he meant last night, but I hope he’ll come today. “What did he say to you?” mom asked which made me turn to her. “Who?” “Cameron.” “He asked me to trust him. He didn’t say if he’ll come with me.” “Am I the only one having a bad feeling about this? What if you just cancel your flight?” Skyler asked. “I won’t. I will leave with or without him.” “Don’t be so anxious and just relax. There could be a traffic, I’m sure he’ll come for you.” Mom tried her best to calm me down but I just can’t. I’m starting to panic and overthink on what could be happening to him. Suddenly, an announcement was made that my flight will start boarding. I still can’t find Cameron and I’m about to cry, stupid hormones! “Savannah, you’ll be la

    Cameron brought me to another room in the building. We left my family with Cassandra, who will fully explain them what is happening. I am still in shock and speechless after Cameron’s revelations.“Do you want anything? Tea? Juice? Water?” I didn’t answer him and just stared. I think he got the cue just from my eyes. He sat down beside me and held my hand. “Savannah, nothing changes between us even if—”“What do you mean nothing changes?” I interrupted him. I pulled my hands and took a deep breath. “These changes everything! I don’t know if I should celebrate knowing my boyfriend is not a bodyguard, but a CEO of goddamn largest company in Casterdale or be worried and frightened. I was fully ready to accept on who you really are, as a bodyguard, but then everything suddenly changed overnight!”“You should be glad. You being my wife will make you untouchable even to your own family.”“That’s not the point! Why didn’t you tell me sooner?! Do you know how much overthinking, anxiety and pa

    The day went fast and it’s now getting closer to midnight. Everyone is having fun chatting, laughing, eating and drinking. “This year is really memorable and fruitful, if I must say,” Cameron’s father said. “You had your first grandchild this year! You must be really happy!” Uncle Jacob said and I can’t help but smile. “I also had my first daughter-in-law this year! It’s really memorable.” I turned to Cameron who’s sitting on my left while feeding Via. “This is my favorite year,” I whispered. “We have more years to look forward to, together.” “I know, but this year is where you and Via came into my life.” “We’ll... that’s true.” We both chuckled. I sometimes feel like I’m still dreaming. It was just like yesterday when my life has no directions and all I do is party and drink, now I have Aviana and Cameron. Not to mention, me and my brothers are able to fix our relationship this year. We still fight, but we understand each other more. “Sav, pass me the salad.” I got back to

    It’s been a couple of weeks, and today is New Year’s Eve. We are busy preparing for our family’s celebration later at night. Both the Harris and the Zach are together in a private resort to welcome the New Year. “Aw! Ouch! Sav help!” I turned to Vester and saw Via pulling his hair. I quickly grabbed my daughter from him and pulled her hand away. “Why does she keep on pulling my hair?! I’m not yet married but I think I’ll be bald even before I say I do!” “Let me see your scalp.” I looked at his head and smirked as I thought to play a little prank. “Oh, my gosh. This is bad!” “W-Why?! Am I going bald?!” “There are bald spots. This is a major turn off to all women. Tsk, this is bad.” “WHAT?! What should I do?!” “Well, stay single for life, I guess?” I think he realized what I’m doing. He stood up straight and glared at me. “You think that’s funny? If I get bald, you’ll have to compensate me on behalf of your daughter!” “Only your hair will disappear, don’t stress too much!” Sudde

    “I’m sorry! I can’t hold it any longer! I think I’m going to fart if I keep holding my laughter!” Sylvester said while laughing. I can’t stop myself from laughing too.“You’re so bad at acting! Why did I never realize that your face is so funny! I almost lost it when I saw you squeezing Skyler!” I said while laughing. I looked at Cameron, who looks flustered and confused. “That’s what you get! You think you’re the only one who can pretend to have an amnesia?!”“You think that’s funny?! I was so worried!”“I only pretended for a few minutes but you did it for weeks! I wouldn’t lose this kind of chance to pay you back!”“That’s different! I did it for a reason!”“I did it for fun, but it’s not different!”“You two should stop, you might end up fighting. You just got married,” mom said.“You also played along, mom?” Cameron asked.“Of course. I also wouldn’t miss the chance to play with my kids. Also, I’m Savanah’s mother.

    “Let’s start the preaching with dad as soon as we get back.” It’s been two days, and it’s the last day of my business conference. Savannah is still unconscious and is still at the ICU. I make sure to be updated on her condition, and Stefano updates me all the time.“We should just head back tomorrow. We need more information—”“You can just stay here, and let’s just do the preaching when you get back. I have to go back for my wife and daughter.”“I understand but—”“Cassandra, two days for me is enough. I’ve seen and heard enough. I don’t know what else you want to explore in this place, but you can stay if you want. I’ll head back later at the afternoon, and you head back tomorrow noon. Got it?”“You’ll leave me alone here?” I stopped walking and turned to her.“You have your secretary and security with you. What do mean you’ll be left alone?”“I mean, it’s our first business conference together ever since you publicize your position. Shouldn’t we work on this together?”“I already d

    It’s been two days, and my wife is still unconscious. She’s still at the ICU and being monitored. Today, I have to attend a meeting. As much as I want to stay by Savannah’s side, I also have responsibilities as the company’s CEO.“Sir, Cameron? Sir?” I got back to my senses when I heard my name being called. I sat up straight and awkwardly faked a coughed.“Sorry, what were you saying again?”“I was mentioning the target raise in revenue for this year. I was asking if the stated numbers are ideal or realistic to you, sir.”“Oh, uhm,” I scanned the document in my hands. “We should lower it by two percent. Also, I received the investment offered by CXX in Hawaii. I never heard this company before, but the investment price they mentioned is too high for me to assume that they are an unknown company.”“CXX is an underground company, illegal for short. It’s actually CVX but they changed it to CXX when they handed us their proposal. I found the name and proposal suspicious too, like you did

    It’s been about three hours and we are still outside the operating room, when suddenly a nurse came out rushing. He stopped and bowed for a bit when he saw us and left running.“Oh dear, heavens, what’s happening to my daughter?”Seeing the nurse rushing out made me more anxious. I just hugged Via, who’s still sleeping, tighter.An hour later, the doctor finally came out.“How’s my wife? Is she okay?”“Your wife had a cardiac arrest earlier, but she is now stable. She was at a critical stage earlier due to blood lost, but we manage to save her just in time. However, we still need to monitor her vitals as she could have a cardiac arrest again anytime. We’ll transfer her to the Intensive Care Unit for further monitoring.” The doctor left and I just sighed. In shorter context, Savannah is still not out of danger. She’s basically at the death’s door given that anything could happen to her anytime.“Cassandra,” I called out my sister as I face her. “Tighten the security inside and outside

    We are now inside the van on the way to the hotel, and I still feel anxious for unknown reasons. Why do I keep feeling that something bad would happen anytime?“Babe, are you okay?” Cameron asked me as he holds my hand. I turned to him and smiled.“I am okay. Don’t worry.”“Are you sure? You look anxious.”“I am okay. Don’t worry about me.” I tried to calm myself down and change the topic. “Look at my shoes. My brothers gifted it to me earlier. Do you know how much this is? It’s more or less fifty-million! They bought it from an auction! I still can’t believe they did that.”“Really? Well, I can’t blame them. They would, of course, prepare the best gift for their only and older sister. Fifty-million is a just a cent for them compared on how much they love you.”“Love me? Tsk, they could have just given me a simple designer shoes and I would still appreciate it. They literally participated in an auction just for the shoes.”“Fifty-million is still cheap considering it’s from an auction

    “So, I was right... there were girls in the party,” I said as I take a bite from my salmon.“I don’t know if Cameron was loyal or was afraid to get punched by your brothers. He didn’t even lay his eyes on the girls,” Kevin jokingly said. “Sylvester didn’t even last five minutes in stopping his urges.”“That’s why I left the room. Good thing I did,” Cameron said and winked at me which made me blush.“I wasn’t even the one who hired those girls. Sylvester really hired them for his self,” Stefano said.“Why? What about you?” I asked.“I left the room after Cameron. I even saw the two of you kissing while entering the room. Then I booked another room for myself and just slept.”“Boring,” Sylvester said while shaking his head.“What about Skyler?! Did you let my baby see that?!”“Baby? He’s old enough to make a baby!” Irene said. I glared at her but she just smiled sarcastically.“I didn’t even get to see the girls arrive. I had to leave to record a song for my upcoming album.
