Beau did not know what was worse, the hurt look on his beloved Robyn's face or the disappointment on his brother's face.
He followed her eyesight and saw the tears starting to glisten in her eyes. He walked towards her slowly hoping she would not reject him. He opened his arms and pulled her in. She did not push him away though. She just hugged him back. He sighed almost crying right there.
"I swear it's not what you think babe. I can explain." He whispered to her.
"Yeah. Not right now though, not here." She said and kissed him.
He was about to say something but the doctor came out of a room and looked at them.
"You're Mrs Kasho's children right?"
"Yes! How is she?" Colin said getting up.
"She is better. She wants to see you two and a miss Robyn."
"Thanks doctor."
They walked into the room without even lookin
Robyn was very excited to get away to beach house with her family and her friends. It had been a while since she had been there. She saw that they had added another guest wing."So us the parents will take the guest wings and you all can take the main house." Her mother said."Fine. Dibs on mom's master room!" Robyn said."Fine.I will get dad's master room." Drew said."If you break anything in there Drew...." Peter warned."What I'm I? Five years old?""You better not be. August will be over soon with his fiancée and her sister. You can all get settled in. Oh Robyn you're in charge.""Awesome. Col, you and Tara have the room next to us.""Let me guess,it's your room.""Yes. Lay you and this little angel have Drew's room." Robyn told her making silly faces at Debbie who giggled.
The pounding on the door was what woke Beau up the next morning. It was at least five in the morning. Robyn slept beside him.He groggily got up and opened the door. Drew was right at the door in sports wear."You up for a basketball game with the old men?""Right now?""Yes. You're the one who suggested it at dinner last night.""Fine. Let me just change.""Hurry up. I will go get August and Colin."He went into the bathroom and brushed his teeth. He found his trunks and wore them. He placed a kiss on Robyn's cheek before leaving the room."I'm going to the court with the others.""Mmhh." She murmured sleepily.He went out to the court and found the senior and junior Hachis there. Colin was right behind him."So, what are you going to do about Kiara
Robyn was not sure if she had to laugh or be angry so she did the latter. The angry look on Kiara's face just made it even worse."You're laughing now but you will cry when he is bored with you and hunting down for my address.""So let me get this straight, you think threatening me and upsetting me will make me leave him?""I'm just telling you facts.""I doubt he will get bored with me, I'm super cool. And he proposed to me because he wants to not that I made him.""Daddy's money won't keep you safe forever..." Kiara said fuming."Oh put a sock in it Kiara. What the hell is your problem?" Kat said coming onto the balcony. "For your information,Robyn has a PhD in finance and a degree in chemistry. She did not become a chief CEO in her father's company because it is her father's. I'm really ashamed with your belittling her and bullying her. She is just b
Beau heard someone sob. He opened his eyes and saw that he was in a hospital. He saw Robyn beside him. Why was she crying?"Babe? What's wrong?"Robyn looked up at him fast. "Beau! You're awake.""Yes. How did I get here?""What's the last thing you remember?""Kiara stabbed me. Then you kissed me.""Yeah. She did. You kind of lost a bit more blood than we thought.""Oh. I passed out?""Yeah. But Drew stitched you up and brought you here. They had to give you intravenous fluids to stabilize you.""That bad?""Yeah. But you will be fine. You just need painkillers and antibiotics.""I'm fine now. Please don't cry anymore my love."Robyn nodded. "I have to call Col and Drew. They said to call when you wake up. Can you stand?" 
Robyn found it really funny how Ella was upset about the gossip columns talking about a love triangle between the brothers and her. She had learnt early in life not to really care about such things because no matter what you do in life,good or bad they are going to talk.It was even worse when you were known by a lot of people."Ells, calm down. We all know the truth about that so it's okay. It doesn't matter.""Still,they are not being fair.""Of course not. Especially to Tara. This is all new for her.""Yeah. I hope Colin makes sure she does not feel insecure about all this.""I'm sure he will.""He better.""Now. Can we go get Drew a birthday present then?""Are you really buying him socks Roh?""Are you really buying him a customized watch on top of the surprise you're planning?"
Beau watched his brother pace back and forth in his living room. The frown etched on his forehead was making his face look menacing. Colin was a handsome man but anyone who had ever seen his angry enough knew that angel like face became a mirror of death itself. That was the one other thing he had in common with Drew.Beau knew in this time, talking him down would just fuel his anger so he did the next best thing. He got him a glass of cold water. Colin glared at him as he took the glass and chugged the cold water like it was nothing."This doesn't change the fact that you are a douche." He said."Col.....""How could you go see Kiara behind Robyn's back? That's idiotic even for you.""I had to go there. It seemed important."Colin scoffed. "Well come on, tell me. What was so important that you had to break a promise you made to the woman you say you love?"
Robyn sat beside Chef Jacob the entire time. His left hand had been bandaged up as well as his back and the blisters removed. Luckily the fire had not burnt his face or anywhere else."Miss Robyn, please go home I will be fine.""And I've told you it's okay. Just rest please.""I forget how stubborn you can get sometimes.""Just rest. Should I call the doctor? Are you in pain?""No. They gave me painkillers when we got here remember?""Oh yeah. I'm sorry Chef Jacob for this.""It was an accident. Don't worry miss Robyn. And I will be back in the kitchen by tomorrow.""No. You will get back to work after you're better Chef Jacob.""But it's not so bad.""No. Till you're better you got it?" Robyn told him firmly"Yes ma'am." Chef Jacob said mak
Drew sat on the roof of the hospital building for some fresh air. His last patient for the day had delivered earlier than he had anticipated. He now had some free time to just sort out his thoughts.Ella was moving in with him the following day. He was excited about eaking up next to her everyday. He hoped she would not get annoyed when the hospital calls in their free time.He needed to go check on his sister. He was worried about her. Noah's was a big deal to her. It had started slow but it was one of the biggest and nicest restraunts in the city. She had been planning to expand it to other cities too.He still remembered the day she had taken him and Ella to the place. It was a small building but she had expanded it with the help of an interior designer."Ta da! This my people is the place.""You expanded it? It looks really great now!" He had told her."Really grea
The gang arrived at the lake house in the afternoon. It was sunny and a little windy but looked beautiful all the same."I'm so tired and hungry." Ella said as soon as they got into the house."Me too. Do we have cracker?" Tara asked."Hormones driving you crazy already?" Kat joked."Don't act innocent Kat, I saw you throwing up this morning.""Shhhh!" Kat shushed Ella.The guys were stuck dragging medium suitcases."What did you all put in these things, we will only be here for three days!" August shouted."Stop whining and carry it man!" Drew said."Everyone knows their rooms right?""Yeah sure! In this big place I already forgot." Layla said."Don't be so dramatic."After everyone had settled in and rested the went to the foyer to watch the sunset. The orange gl
Drew had woken up really early the day after Robyn's wedding. It had taken place at their grandfather's house and him, Ella, August, Kat, Layla and Lionel had stayed back because Ella had slept off. He decided to pick up the trash and was later joined by August and Lionel.The tables had already been moved luckily and it was not so bad."So what's the story between our sister and our cousin?" August suddenly said."RT and Tristan?""Obviously, which other sister dobwe have?""If you're going to be a wise ass I wont tell you." Drew threatened."Just tell us, it was clear some something had gone down between them.""Why do you say that?""Tristan had this look when he looked at her, like she was something he badly wanted but knows couldn't have." Lionel said."Yeah. Fool's gold." August
The many people going in and out of the room made Robyn dizzy. She was already nervous and the people just made it worse. She started thinking of how things would go. She prayed hard that it would all end well. But what of someone decides to hurt her or Beau? Or even any of the family and friends. They had invited close friends and families only but still, what if?She glanced to her right at Tara whose make up was being done. She looked excited and Robyn wondered if it was only from the wedding or something else. Her hands had started sweating."Ells, can you please call Ma." She whispered to her best friend."Sure thing." Ella said standing up. "Hey are you finished? Good, all of you out! Leave the brides alone.""Thanks Layla. Oh can you call my mother too please." Tara said.After a few minutes, Viv and Beatrice walked in with Leah and Mrs Hughes. They rushed in.
The new tables and chairs had been arranged beautifully. The place looked so extravagant with the new curtains and lighting all over it. Even the romantic VIP tables were separated from the rest. They were private and intimate. Additional staff had been hired to cater for a lot of people as the place had been made bigger with new classic uniforms. The kitchen was packed with new equipment and extra fire extinguishing measures.Chef Jacob and Lefa were so excited that they looked like children about to go on a joy ride or going to the ice cream parlor. Lefa was wearing a suit today which was uncanny. He did not like dressing up at all but for this day he looked like a movie star.Robyn saw Michael bring in a carton of olive oil bottles into the kitchen. He looked at her ashamed. She was sure he regretted what he did the time in the hospital and ransom thing. She had asked the police not to charge him and that his father not be told anything abo
Colin shifted in the front passenger seat where he sat in Beau's car. He was glad that Beau was driving because he was as nervous as a child on their firs day of school. He stretched his hand and grabbed the bottled water at the cupholder. He drank a little and then tapped his hand in quick movements at the the dashboard."Col, stop worrying, it will be fine." Beau said."Easy for you to say.""You're right, I don't know a thing but no matter what they test says, you're still my brother." Beau said sincerely."Thanks brother. When did Robyn and Mom say they will get there?""Maybe father than us. The traffic from Mom's place is better than our side.""Yeah you're right. I hope that douche does not start with RT or mom.""You're keen on calling her that huh?""What? It's cool. I can't call her baby, you already do that. Or Robbie, Roh, an
Beau watched the rain fall and form puddles on the ground. The grass was almost being drowned by the water. He turned around and watched Robyn sleeping. She always loved the rain, it brought her peace. To him many times too,but not tonight.Colin had told him that James was the one who was visiting Kiara and feeding her and Brett all the information. He had shown him the video of their visit. He did not know how to tell Robyn about that. For Colin it had fed the fire of dislike for his father. He had talked Colin down from confronting James. Colin was going through a lot at the moment.There was a loud thunder clap that startled him. He heard Robyn wimper and went to the bed.He cuddled her while running his circles in her hair. "Shhhh. It's okay. I'm here." He cooed at her.Then another thunderclap sounded, louder than the first and Robyn sat up opening her eyes.
The garden at the Grand Hachi's had been transformed into a fairlytale themed magical place. The pink and white lilies and roses in vases laid all over the tables. The orange and cream lanterns hung in the poles all over the garden giving off a wonderful glow.Robyn was getting lemon water for Ella and an apple for Kat. She had been trying to calm them down the whole day. Each of them had something to get all worked up about. If it was not the hair, it was the something else."Hey Roh, Aunt Viv is looking for you." Layla told her as she came towards her."Oh no. Please tell her I'm caught up.""She says it won't take long.""Fine. Here, take the warm lemon water to Ella and the apple to Kat.""You got it.""Oh and remind the makeup artist not to use anything with olive oil on Ella, she is terribly allergic.""Go. I go
Colin studied James' face as he read through the sales and rights agreement. He smiled more as he read on. He glanced at Tristan who was looking at them with amusement."Well. All seems in order here." James said signing it off. "Congratulations Mr Tristan. Good luck working with him son. I hear he is ruthless. You will be begging to sell it soon." He whispered the last part and watched Tristan and his lawyer leave. Colin was left with his father and his lawyer."Can't you even wish well for your son? I am your flesh and blood.""You are my son. But you don't really expect me to be on your side when you made it very clear you were against me.""You wanted me to stand by and let you hurt my brother?" Colin asked him."That bastard is not your brother!!!!" James yelled. "He is nothing just like his stupid father. That lame excuse of a......"Colin did not let him catch his
Ella had her head on Drew's chest while the latter rubbed slow circles in her hair. It was comforting but unlike this time she was not relaxed at all. Her mind soul was restless and she did not know who to talk to.Normally she would go to Robyn but she did not want her to worry more."Are you going to tell me what's bothering you?" Drew asked her."I'm fine love.""Mmmhh...." He lifted her chin up gently and kissed her. "Sweetheart you're not. Talk to me,please. You know I'm right here with you no matter what.""Promise?" She asked pleadingly."Cross my heart." He said giving her a peck on the forehead.She sighed heavily. "It's my fault Robyn got kidnapped again and almost died."Drew made a confused face. "Why do you think that?""If I had not dated Brett or listened to her sooner none if
