“What are you doing here Lisa? You should leave “ Hannah said as she frowned and Lisa scoffed and turned to her.

“I didn’t know tough women cry,” she said and Hannah rolled her eyes and sat up probably on the bed.

“And who the hell told you I was crying?” She asked with a straight face on and Lisa chucked and sat on the couch.

“What do you want Lisa? What are you doing here?” Hannah asked and Lisa sighed softly ignoring her question.

“I didn’t believe it when Dolly Parton said *tough women don’t cry but I found out they do more often* now I believe it” She paused and then took a deep breath.

“It’s okay to cry. No matter how strong and tough you are as a woman, sometimes you have to break down.

We are human beings and not robots. We all have feelings.

toughness doesn't mean you can't show your emotions. A tough woman can cry, but she doesn't let her emotions get in the way of what she needs to do.

She may feel sadness or pain, but she channels those feelings into her strength and r

    Meanwhile, Brandon who had rushed back to the company entered his office, and to his greatest surprise, he saw Mr Daniel.“Mr Daniel” Brandon muttered surprised as he saw him and his PA.“I know this is random, but I’m willing to sign the contract with you on your terms and give you whatever you want, I just need a favor in return,” he said and Brandon hummed.“Let me guess, you want to speak with Hannah,” he said and Daniel nodded. “I can’t force her to talk to you, it’s going to be her choice, not mine,” he said as he stared at Mr Daniel with pity in his eyes. “Please, I beg you, Mr Colby, please” he begged and then Brandon sighed but then on second thought he decided to agree since they would become business partners on his condition. “Fine, I’ll see what I can do. I will call you “ he said and Mr Daniel nodded and then walked out of Brandon’s office with his assistant trailing behind him.The moment they walked out, Liam walked in.“I thought you guys were supposed to meet in a

    He’s not my father, my father is dead to me” she said as she gave him back the car key and then walked back inside the house angrily. Brandon sighed softly and was about to walk inside the house when Arianna’s car drove inside the compound.The octuplets who had seen Brandon from inside the car, rushed out of the car and ran toward him. “Daddy” They called and all hugged him at once. “Sweethearts” Brandon smiled as he ruffled their hairs one after the other and they all giggled. “Hey mom” Brandon muttered to Arianna who was now standing in front of him.“Brandon, did you buy a new car?” Arianna asked and Brandon nodded with a weird look on his face. “Oh, Uhm kids, go to your room now. I’ll call you guys for dinner shortly” Arianna said and the kids nodded and ran inside the house happily.“What’s wrong? And why is there a new car here?” Arianna asked the moment the kids left.“I bought the car for Hannah but she rejected it because she thinks I bought it for her to convince her t

    “Get out of my way Brandon-““I’m sorry alright, I’m sorry. I get it, I was selfish and stupid wanting you to see your father when you do not want to. Although He told me he would sign with our company on my terms and he wanted me to talk to you but..”“And you accepted,” Hannah said in response, “I told him I would try, but that wasn’t the reason I bought the car. I paid for it a few weeks back, it just arrived today. I felt you needed to hear him out, he’s still your father no matter how you try to deny it. Sooner or later you would have to talk to him. He just wants to talk to you that’s all, but it’s your choice, I’m not forcing you to.Whatever you decide, I’ll support you” he said and she stared at him for a few seconds and then looked away. “Fine, I forgive you, just stop doing that eye thing you do all the time. Same thing the octuplets do all the time” she said trying to avoid his gaze and he smiled. “What eye thing?” He asked in a whisper as he moved closer to her leavi

    “But I don’t have anywhere else to go?-““You can sleep on the street, we all know you belong there,” Arianna said and with that, she walked away. Lisa stared at her looking speechless. Guess I was wrong, she’s nothing like Hannah who is soft-hearted.Whatever! I’m not apologizing anymore. I don’t even know why I apologized In the first place when I did nothing, she thought, and then walked out of the house, going to the swimming pool area, to chill in the pool.Meanwhile, Jessica who had left the house is seen in a bar looking wasted when her worst nightmare suddenly approaches her. It was no other person than Jeff. He scoffed the moment he saw her. “Look who’s in the bar all alone and wasted. Where is your brother, or your gigolo husband, he’s not here to save you” Jeff said and Jessica stared at her and looked away.“I’m talking to you Jessica,” Jeff said as he frowned. He gripped her hand and she winced in pain. “Let go of me Jeff, let me go,” she said as he pulled her up an

    Just then they heard a knock on the front door.“Alex, please get the door,” Arianna said and Alex nodded and rushed to the door. He opened the door only to see a strange guy carrying Jessica in her arms. “This is Colby's mansion right?” Humphery asked and Alex nodded. Arianna and Lucas stood up when they heard a male voice ask if this was Colby’s mansion.“Who’s at the door, Alex?” Arianna asked as they got to the door and to their surprise they saw a strange guy holding Jessica in his arms. Jessica was unconscious. “Oh my goodness! What happened to her?” Arianna asked as the look on her face changed at once. “She was drunk and I brought her home” Humphrey quickly explained leaving out the part where Jeff tried taking her away. Lucas stared at Humphrey and then carried Jessica from him. “Uhm, I’ll be on my way now,” Humphrey said but then paused when Arianna spoke. “What’s your name?” Arianna asked. “Humphrey, “ he said and Arianna nodded. “Thank you, Humphery,” Arianna said

    “Come over here,” he said and then winked at her. Hannah blinked twice and her senses came back to normal.She then ran out of the bathroom. She felt her heart palpitating. “Calm down Hannah, calm down” she kept saying to herself as she kept reminiscing about what she had seen in the bathroom.She quickly put on her clothes and was about to walk out of the room when Brandon suddenly called her name and then she suddenly froze.She turned and then opened her eyes wide when she saw him standing by the bathroom door.He steps fully inside the room, water still dripping from his hair and skin. He's wrapped in a towel, which is cinched around his waist, leaving his broad shoulders and muscular arms exposed. His hair is mussed from the shower, and the water glistens on his skin, accentuating the contours of his body.She swallowed into nothing as she stared at him.How can someone be so handsome, hot, attractive, irresistible, sexy, and wealthy at the same time?

    “Doing what I should have done long ago” he said as he placed her on the bed and suddenly came upon her. Oh my goodness, he’s going to have sex with me, she thought as she opened her eyes and then quickly closed it.Brandon chuckled and laid beside her staring at the ceiling, with a smile on his lips. Hannah never ceased to amaze him. When he thought he already knew everything about her, She came up with a new, different thing, he thought as he kept on smiling. Hannah on the other hand opened her eyes when she didn’t hear the sound of Brandon again. She wondered where she had gone.She turned and saw Brandon lying beside her. Brandon turned and their gaze interlocked. She quickly looked away and closed her eyes, making Brandon laugh. “Seriously?” He muttered as he chuckled while staring at Hannah’s beautiful face. Hannah opened her eyes and then saw Brandon staring at her. She felt her cheeks turn red immediately. “Has anyone told you how beautiful you are? You are uniquely bea

    Lucas had left the room to make some calls, leaving Hannah and Teresa alone in the dimly lit space. The air between them was thick with unspoken thoughts, with grief and frustration too heavy to voice.Teresa watched Hannah closely. She looked hollow—her eyes distant, her shoulders sagging under a weight no one could carry for her.“You okay?” Teresa finally asked.Hannah blinked and turned her head, forcing a weak smile. “Yeah.”Teresa hummed in response, clearly unconvinced. She reached into her pocket, pulling out a cigarette and lighting it with a practiced ease. Smoke curled in the air between them.“Do you smoke?” she asked, offering one toward Hannah.Hannah shook her head. “No. I never have.”Teresa chuckled, taking a long drag before exhaling. “Figures.”Silence stretched between them, but it wasn’t uncomfortable. It was the silence of two women who understood each other—different, yet bound by shared pain.“My mother-in-law used to hate me too,” Teresa murmured suddenly, he

  • Cinderella And Her Beautiful Octuplets   Ghost of the past

    Teresa sat in the back of a dimly lit bar, the scent of cigarette smoke and aged whiskey thick in the air. The place was quiet, the kind of underground haunt where no one asked questions, where secrets were currency, and where a person could disappear if they weren’t careful.She checked the time on her phone. Her contact was late.Across the table, Hannah fidgeted with the glass of water in front of her, her expression distant, lost in thoughts she wasn’t ready to speak out loud. Lucas sat beside her, his gaze locked on the entrance, his tension palpable.When the door finally creaked open, Teresa’s eyes narrowed as a tall, wiry man entered, his leather jacket scuffed and his face shadowed with stubble. He scanned the room before spotting her and sauntering over.“You’re late, Marco,” Teresa said, her voice edged with impatience.The man—Marco Ruiz—grinned as he slid into the seat across from her. “Good to see you too, Provenzano. You know how it is—hard to stay alive in this busines

  • Cinderella And Her Beautiful Octuplets   The hunt for Brandon

    Hannah stood in the dimly lit warehouse, her fingers clenched into fists at her sides. The stale scent of dust and oil filled the air, mingling with the cold fear settling deep in her stomach. The warehouse was one of many they had searched in the last twenty-four hours, but this one felt different. The moment she stepped inside, a weird sensation crawled over her skin, like a presence lingering just out of sight.Lucas moved beside her, scanning the rows of crates stacked high against the walls. His jaw was tight, his frustration barely concealed beneath his calm exterior. Teresa stood a few steps ahead, gun in hand, her eyes sharp as she surveyed their surroundings. They had all hoped—desperately—that this search would yield something more than dead ends and half-truths. But as the minutes ticked by, that hope was slipping.Brandon had vanished without a trace.Every lead they had followed led to nothing. Every whisper, every clue, every trail had been a carefully crafted illus

    The night was thick with silence, the kind that felt like a living, breathing thing, pressing in on them as they stood at the edge of the abandoned docks. The stench of salt and rust filled the air, mixing with something darker—the unmistakable scent of blood.Teresa’s fingers curled around the handle of her gun as she scanned the area, her pulse drumming hard against her ribs. Her father was dead. That chapter of her life was over. But this? This wasn’t over. Not until she had him.Not until she had Brandon and brought him back to his family.“We should’ve heard something by now,” Hannah whispered, her voice tight with restrained panic.Teresa didn’t answer. She was thinking the same thing.The lead had been solid. Brandon had been held here—multiple sources confirmed it. The docks had been his prison. But as they stood here, surrounded by crates and shadows, the truth settled like ice in her veins.Brandon wasn’t here.And the blood on the floor was still fresh.Teresa crouched do

    Teresa barely had a second to react before the door to her office swung open. The moment her eyes landed on the man standing there, a cold shiver ran down her spine. Her father.Bernardo Provenzano. The man she had once idolized. The man she had spent her entire life trying to please.And now, the man she had just betrayed.He stepped inside with a slow, deliberate pace, shutting the door behind him. The soft click of the lock sent her heart into overdrive.“Oh, my little princess,” he murmured, his voice filled with mock tenderness. But his eyes… they were filled with nothing but hatred.Teresa’s hands gripped the arms of her chair, knuckles turning white. Fear slithered through her veins, but she refused to let it show.“How disappointing,” he continued, shaking his head as if she were a child who had misbehaved. “I thought you were different. Better. Not like your mother.”Teresa inhaled sharply.His mother.For years, she had believed the lie—that her mother had been killed by a r

    The beeping of machines was the only sound filling the hospital room. Jessica lay on the hospital bed, her skin deathly pale, her chest barely rising under the weight of the oxygen mask secured over her face. Wires and tubes connected her to the machines, keeping her alive, but just barely.Hannah stood frozen in the doorway, unable to move. The doctor’s words still rang in her ears, cutting deeper than any wound ever could.“She has a five percent chance of survival,” the doctor had said, his voice clinical, detached. “She lost too much blood, and the delay in medical care worsened her condition. We’re doing everything we can, but you need to prepare for the worst.”The worst.Hannah clenched her fists, nails digging into her palms. This was her fault. If she hadn’t suggested they escape… if she had just listened, just stayed put, Jessica wouldn’t be lying here, fighting for her life.And Brandon…A fresh wave of pain hit her. He was gone. Taken. She had watched him surrender himsel

    The river had given them a chance, but it hadn’t given them freedom.Brandon collapsed onto the muddy shore, gasping for air. His limbs ached from the relentless current, but he didn’t have time to recover. Jessica.Lucas dragged her up the embankment, his breathing ragged. She was completely unconscious now, her body limp in his arms. The river had sapped whatever strength she had left. Her wound was bad—too bad. If they didn’t get her help soon…No. He couldn’t think like that.“Teresa,” Brandon barked, snapping back into survival mode. “Where’s the nearest hospital?”Teresa, still soaking wet, flipped open her laptop with shaking hands. Water dripped onto the screen, but she didn’t stop. “There’s one about six miles south,” she said breathlessly. “But there’s a problem.”Brandon exhaled sharply. “There’s always a problem.”Teresa gave him a grim look. “Bernardo’s men will have every major road blocked. They’re already watching the airspace. If we head to that hospital, they’ll find

  • Cinderella And Her Beautiful Octuplets   The Final stand

    The cave was damp and cold, the scent of moss and river water clinging to the air. Shadows stretched across the rocky walls, their flickering shapes cast by the distant glow of searchlights cutting through the trees outside. They had barely made it out alive.But they weren’t safe.Brandon pressed his back against the jagged rock, listening. Boots crunched against gravel just beyond the entrance. The soldiers were closing in. They had minutes—maybe seconds—before the cave was compromised.Lucas sat against the far wall, pressing his hand against Jessica’s wound. She was slipping fast, her skin pale, her lips trembling.“I can stop the bleeding, but not for long,” Teresa said, her voice tight with urgency. “But she needs real help, Brandon.”Brandon looked at Jessica’s barely conscious form, then at Hannah, who was up beside Teresa, shaking from the cold,she looked so pale. He had promised to protect her. He had promised to protect all of them.He clenched his fists. Promises meant not

  • Cinderella And Her Beautiful Octuplets   No way out

    The night was supposed to be theirs. They had escaped, survived impossible odds, and left Bernardo bleeding on the cold ground. But fate had other plans.They wondered how come he was alive. They had witnessed him go on his knees, blood all over him.The deafening roar of helicopter blades grew louder, sending shockwaves through Brandon’s chest. The floodlights cut through the dense trees, slicing through the shadows that had once been their cover. The tracker beneath the seat blinked like a taunting heartbeat—steady, unrelenting, and damning.Teresa’s fingers flew over her laptop, her breath ragged. “I need time,” she muttered, panic lacing her voice.“We don’t have time,” Lucas growled, yanking a rifle from the back. “They’re here.”Jessica shifted, barely conscious, her breathing uneven. Hannah took a deep breathe while having a second thoughts.Maybe she should just surrender herself to Bernardo and all this would be over. But Brandon here would rather die than watch her go back
