/Brian’s POV/

After angrily bouncing the call on Elliot, the traffic reduced and I was able to navigate my way out of the highway to the street I was supposed to encounter before the gate of Kings estate, so I barely had time to ponder over what Elliot said.

Even if I had the time, dwelling in a story as absurd as that is not something that I will consider because it is extremely disrespectful over everything that I have felt towards Ember over the past few years, and I can’t stomachache that amount of disrespect just because I am eager to please people.

“Home sweet home” I mutter as I finally drive into the parking lot if the new house that my father was generous enough to gift me as my wedding gift.

As soon as I fix that car in a spot that I am sure that it will be convenient enough for me to move the car when it is time for me to go to work the next dat, I pick up my brief case from the back seat and I practically spring towards the giant doors leading up the main house before

    /Meelah’s POV/After Dianne and Ari left the room to go about their baby girl duties of ordering everything that I was going to need for the bedroom make over, Aurora washed my hair and blow dried it. Half way into Aurora massaging my scalp with oil, Ari and Dianne came to join us and the four of us did a lot of catching up on the things that happened since the bride switch, while Aurora styled my hair. Catching up with my girls made me feel like I have been sidelined from the things going on in my friends life for a very long time? It just that in this case I am the one that did the sidelining. The catching up was really important because Aurora is only a fashionista, not an hairstylist so she had to browse styles on YouTube, and there was a whole lot of trial and error that made me almost give up on her impromptu styling experience, but our gossips kept me going and at the end of the day she was able to get the styling right. When Aurora finally got the styling, she was so proud

    /Meelah’s POV/ After thinking about where I was supposed to start my work from the previous night, I decided to sleep first and deal with my problems later because I could seriously feel that I was running low on sleep and I Didn’t want to resume my first day at work after I got married looking so cranky. Crashing in the same room with Brian wasn’t an option I wanted to consider because there was still some sort of tension between us and I didn’t want to be surrounded by any thick cloud of awkwardness that will make it difficult for me to sleep and I wasn’t even ready to risk it, so I crashed in the guest room. It was difficult to fall asleep easily because my mind kept on drifting back to Brian and his ground rules that didn’t stop baffling me because I didn’t take Brian Kings as a principled person enough for all the rules that he set. When I couldn’t stop thinking about how I am going to survive with Brian under the sand room, I picked up the marriage contract to distract my th

    /Meelah’s POV/One would think that what my bestie said to me was more than the words “Brian’s got you” because I can’t just seem to get it out of my head. A part of me wants to dwell on the fact that Eden may be right, but in a second thought Brian Kings has managed to wrap my girls around his finger and everyone of them has been speaking up for him, so it is very likely that Eden didn’t see anything spectacular and she just made the statement because she think he is a good person, not knowing the kind of person that he really is. If there is one thing that talking to Eden has helped me with today, it is the fact that it has helped me calm my nerves that were all over the place, and now I can have my breakfast in peace” I mutter as I open the freezer to take out one of the overnight oat that Eden made for me. I prep my oat for consumption, but this time around I opt for chocolate as my toppings because I am not ready for my stomach to start acting up. “It’s time…..” I squeal as I

    /Meelah’s POV/I steady myself after Stephanie literally tossed me in Brian’s direction and I follow closely behind Brian because there is a whole lot of missing links in the so called spoilers that Stephanie gave that I can’t just wait to meet the chairman to get the full gist. If not that the chairman promised not to fire me, I would have been so terrified by now that the chairman only made Brian the chairman to get rid of me” I assure myself that there is no cause for alarm. “even if that is not the case at the moment, you still need to know what is going to happen to you because as the special assistant to the chairman of kings corporation, if the chairman retired doesn’t that also mean that your work in Kings corp is over?” The stupid voice in my head starts to fester unnecessary doubt in my mind. “It is better to hear from the horses mouth, instead of putting myself through unnecessary mental stress” I shake the voice off as I try to catch up with Brian who wasn’t considerate

The thought of obediently agreeing to his option, then making sure to escape from their company so that Brian won’t think that I am challenging his authority crosses my mind for a split second, and I actually pause to consider it. “How the hell are you supposed to escape from six able bodied men” the stupid vo

    |Brian’s POV|After racking my brain, thinking of the best way to ask Meelah out to the movie premier, I decided to abandon the responsibility to the butler because I knew for a fact that I was the one whom Meelah had issues with, and she was not the kind of person that will take her anger out on an innocent butler by intentionally making his task difficult for him, and it worked because just when I was driving into kings estate yesterday, I saw Meelah’s driving out.I actually thought of driving out of the estate to block her wherever she was going to have a conversation with her, but for someone who made a conscious effort not to run into me even while we were living under the same roof, I knew better than to try, and thank goodness I decided against it because on getting home, I was informed by the butler that his part of the task was completed.I went about my after-work schedule normally, and while I finally settled down to eat dinner, I got a message from Elva that she had been
