He smiled and then pulled away from her.“You are not ready, when you figure out what you want, and how you feel about me, I will know,” he said as he walked to his chair and sat on it. Hannah frowned and walked out of his office angrily. The moment she got to her office, she locked the door behind her. She clenched her fist and then sighed. She wondered why Brandon was torturing her. He’s acting so cold and suddenly has a change of attitude towards her. She sighed softly wondering what to do. “Do you love him?” A voice spoke in her head“What? Love? I don’t know how I feel” she said out loud. “You know how you feel Hannah, search your heart and you will know you love him. Just tell him how you feel already” another voice spoke in her head and she closed her eyes and yelled. “Shut up, you know nothing about love or how I feel,” she said and then opened her eyes when she realized she was talking to herself. “Oh my goodness! I think I’m going crazy”Meanwhile, Arianna, who had dr
“Oh my goodness! I’m sorry, I forgot to knock” Liam said as he rushed out of the office closing the door behind him.He opened his eyes wide with what he had seen. He thought Hannah and Brandon weren’t on good terms and now they are both kissing in Brandon’s office, he thought and then smiled before walking away.Meanwhile, Brandon and Hannah on the other hand laughed the moment Liam rushed out.“Why don’t we leave the office now? There’s somewhere I need to take you to” Brandon said and Hannah hummed wondering where he was taking her to.“Okay, we will be going in my car, I will drive-““No Hannah, I will drive” Brandon smiled and Hannah pouted. “Okay fine, you can drive. At least if I die, I would know I died for love” he said and Hannah chuckled and then sighed.“Fine, you drive,” she said as she gave Brandon the car key and they both walked out of the office with both of their hands held together. The moment they got outside, Hannah let go of his hands.“Why did you pull your ha
“Anyways you are welcome and I didn't tell your mom about the guy,” he said and then winked at her.Jessica smiled. Just then Arianna walked towards them. “Hey Humphery, you are here,” she said as she moved towards him and hugged hun.“Hello ma”“Hey. Welcome, come to the dining, I wonder why Jessica kept you at the door” Arianna said as she led him to the dining table.“Hey,” Hannah muttered as she saw him. “Hi,” he uttered as he waved at everyone including the octuplets. He had heard of the octuplets that looked so much like Brandon and they were right. The children were a copy of him.He sat down on the chair beside Lucas. Lucas stared at him and looked away with an eye roll. He just doesn't like the guy, he feels there is something weird about him. Everyone was silent as no one said anything. Brandon on the other hand looks so invested in his phone. “So, Humhery, how did you know about the Colbys mansion and then bring Jessica home?Did you know Jessica from somewhere, maybe
The moment they both walked out of the kitchen with both of them holding hands together, Everyone turned and stared at them.Brandon pulled out a chair for Hannah and she sat on it, while he sat beside her. Hannah stared at her father who was sitting two chairs away from her and then looked away.The silence between them all was intense so Lisa decided to break the silence.“Mr Daniel right?” Lisa asked as she stared at Daniel and he nodded.“Okay, Uhm, so I was wondering what kind of father would abandon a child of his. Weird, because I know a responsible father would never do that” Lisa said as she picked up the glass of juice from her table and gulped it down.“Lisa,” Brandon called and she shrugged.“What? I’m only telling the truth. You can’t abandon a child and now come back asking for a second chance. Why did you leave her?” Lisa asked and Hannah turned to her father who was staring at her. She then looked away. “Hannah, could we talk somewhere private?” Mr Daniel asked and H
Meanwhile, Arianna who is seen going back to the dining room saw Hannah climbing stairs with tears in her eyes. “Hannah” she called and Hannah raised her head and stared at her.She wondered why she was crying, she had just left the dining room not quite long and then something had made her cry. She wondered why she was crying.“What’s wrong, sweetheart?” She asked and Hannah pulled her into a hug.“Hey, stop crying,” she said while patting her back. Hannah nodded and pulled away from the hug.“My father, he’s here-“ she wiped her tears and then sniffed.“What? When did he arrive? And who invited him?” Arianna asked with a hint of anger in her eyes. From the look of Hannah’s eyes, she could see how hurt she was. She hated the fact that she had cried, it broke her heart. A hint of anger flashed in her eyes.“Brandon did-“ she sniffed and Arianna sighed. Hannah paused when she noticed the look on Arianna’s face. She was furious. Hannah became calm instantly, she knew whenever Ariann
Arianna stared at Daniel who was staring at Hannah. She turned to Hannah who had no expression on her face.“Hannah is your daughter…..” Daniel said and Hannah who hadn’t said a word, stared at Arianna and then turned to Daniel. Tears gathered in her eyes. At that moment she was speechless, everyone was left speechless. Brandon and Jessica stared at each other. And then Brandon turned to Hannah and their eyes came in contact. There was a deep silence between everyone. Everyone was short of words.But then Lisa broke the silence and spoke.“I’m not surprised. The both of you look so much alike. I don’t know why you all are shocked” Lisa said as she sat on the chair and took a deep sigh. Humphery on the other hand sighed and turned to Jessica. “Uhm, I’ll be on my way now,” he needed to leave the family to settle their issues. “Alright, I’m sorry for all the trouble..”“It’s fine,” he said and smiled at Jessica before walking away. The moment he walked away Lucas went after him. “H
Meanwhile, Brandon’s car came to a stop in front of a small house. It was the same place he had brought Hannah to earlier today.He climbed out of the car and opened the car door for Hannah, after which she climbed out of the car.“Thank you” Hannah muttered and he nodded and held her hands while they both walked towards the house. He opened the door to the house and they both walked inside. Hannah sat on the couch tiredly, lots of thoughts going through her mind.“You must be hungry, I’ll prepare something,” he said but Hannah didn’t say a word, her mind was far away. She was looking so lost in thoughts.“Hannah,” Brandon called, jolting her out of her thoughts.“Yes,” she said as she raised her head and he sighed and sat beside her.“Hannah,…”“I’m sorry, I was lost in my thoughts”“It’s fine, it’s alright, you know you can talk to me about anything right?” He asked and she nodded.She took in a deep breath and turned to him, then rested her head on his shoulder.“Esther was such a
Meanwhile, Arianna is seen in the room with Micheal, tears slipping down her cheeks.Micheal was shocked to the bone marrow with what he had just heard. Hannah was Arianna’s biological child. To be honest, he wasn’t even surprised, or rather he was trying not to be.Because these two people look so much alike in everything. The mother and daughter connection had always been there from the first day they had met. The bond had always existed.Arianna loved and cared for Hannah the first day they met. He took her in, changed her, and gave her a new life and a new home. She gave her everything. Micheal sighed.“How could I be with my daughter this whole time and didn’t even know it was her? I thought she had died. I went back for her and was told she was taken away with a few kids in the street and was killed. I thought she had died” Arianna cried and then Micheal pulled her into a hug. “It’s fine, everything is going to be fine,” Micheal said but then Arianna pulled away from the hug.“
It was morning and Hannah had woken up early. She woke up feeling energized and all.She had brought out her laptop and sent messages to all the members of the board except Brandon that there was going to be a Meeting today.After which she got dressed. She made sure she looked her best and dressed in a way Brandon would stare at her and would not be able to resist her looks.After which she hopped in her car, and zoomed off to the company. Her car came to a stop at the company, she walked straight to her office.A lot of people seemed to be surprised to see her, they probably thought she was there to hand over the position to Isabella Edward but they didn't know she was there to take over. She checked her time and saw it was time for the meeting. She took her laptop and some important files, after which she walked out of her office and locked the door to the office, taking the key with her so that no one would be able to get in. She walked to the board room and met everyone sitting
Hannah pulled away from the kiss and glared at his charming eyes. She glared at his wet plump lips from the kiss and then walked away from him. Brandon made to move towards her again but she shifted back. Just then Brandon heard his phone ring, he brought out his phone and checked his caller’s ID and then answered the phone call.“I'm on my way,” he said and ended the call and then glared at Hannah one more time before walking out of the room, closing the door behind him. She wondered who had called him. The thought of Isabella being the one who called him made her want to puke. She wondered where Isabella had come from, she was out of town the last time she checked and this was Linda’s plan all this while, Hannah scoffed and shook her head.She moved towards the door to see if it was locked from the outside but it wasn't. She opened the door and walked out of the room. She decided to go downstairs and drink water.She walked downstairs and to her greatest surprise she saw Linda in
Hannah had just gotten home from the event. She didn’t waste any time, instead, she walked straight to her room upstairs and brought out her clothes from the wardrobe.She brought out her luggage and started arranging her clothes in it and suddenly the door to the room opened and Brandon walked in.“You left like that, we were supposed to be in the event together,” he paused when he saw luggage on the bed.“What’s going on here?” Brandon asked in deep shock as he glared at Hannah who was packing her clothes.Hannah raised her head, glared at him, and looked away, proceeding with what she was doing without saying a word.“You are leaving?” Brandon asked and Hannah still didn’t say a word.“I’m talking to you, are you leaving?” He asked again, probably not believing what was happening right in front of him.“I’m no longer needed in the company Brandon, you kicked me out and made your ex-girlfriend the new COO. What do you need me for?” Hannah asked as she raised her head and glared at h
“What?” Hannah opened her mouth wide in shock at what Brandon had said. He was publicly asking her to step down as the COO because he knew if he asked her in private she would not and doing it in public in front of everyone would leave her no choice but to step down. Hannah glared back at the crowd, she caught a glimpse of Linda at the coroner of the hall with an evil smirk on her face. She knew this was all Linda’s doings. She wondered what she had told Brandon that made him want her to step down.Hannah who was already pissed tried moving away from the stage but the Brandon tightened his grip on her wrist and held her from moving, while he kept smiling.“I know you all are wondering who the new COO would be. Well, she’s someone you all know, my long-time friend and a family too, Isabella Edward ....” Brandon muttered and Isabella stepped on the stage with a broad smile on her face. Hannah opened her eyes wide in shock, she couldn’t believe what she was seeing. “What the hell is g
It was morning and Hannah was awoken by the sound of her phone ringing tone. With her sleeping eyes, she picked up her phone and answered it without checking the caller’s ID.“Hello Ma’am,” she heard Liam’s voice from the other side of the phone. She quickly opened her eyes wide.“Liam,” she muttered as she sat up properly on the bed.“Ma’am, the event is about to begin and we are waiting for you…” Liam muttered and Hannah who was confused had asked what event.“The company’s 25th anniversary,“ Liam muttered and Hannah opened her mouth wide in shock. She had completely forgotten about the event. She was so distracted with everything happening around her that she didn’t know the event was today and she wasn’t even prepared.“We are waiting for you Ma'am” Liam who didn’t hear Hannah’s voice anymore muttered jolting Hannah out of her thoughts again.“Of course, I’m on my way, Liam,” she said and ended the call: she checked the time on her phone and saw it was past 12.“Shit!” She muttere
“I didn’t, Linda showed me these pictures and told me you are having an affair, I do not want to believe it…” he muttered softly.“Then you shouldn’t…, can’t you see your mom is trying to come between us. You should do your research before believing what you are being told”“And I did my research and found out you truly bought the condo unit. Are you planning on leaving me or divorcing me?”“No, I can explain that…”“No Hannah, I do not want an explanation, save it…”“I don’t know what Linda told you but I expect you not to believe them…”“Oh please, save it. She was right, You’ve been playing me this whole time. Did you ever love me like you said?…” “Can you hear yourself right now Brandon?” She muttered, staring at him with a shock-filled expression.“I’m out of here, have a good night,” Hannah muttered as she took her bag and car keys and walked past Brandon and he didn’t try to stop her from leaving. She walked out of the house. She entered her car, ignited the engine, and drove
It was afternoon and Brandon was back from the meeting he had gone to. Hannah, who had received the information that he was back, went to his office.She planted a soft knock on the door and pushed the door open. There she met Brandon going through some files on his table.“Brandon!!” Hannah called and he hummed without staring at her face. Hannah paused for a second waiting for him to raise his head and at least acknowledge her presence but it seems she was waiting in vain.She then proceeded to what she had come for.“Brandon, your mom, she needs to be out of this company. She just fired two of our employees today. She’s putting this company at risk…” Hannah paused waiting for him to speak but he didn’t say a word neither did he raise his head.Hannah gritted her teeth. She took a deep breath and sighed.“Brandon I am talking to you,” Hannah yelled and Brandon raised his head immediately.“Were you even listening to me?” Hannah asked with a look of surprise on her face. “Yes, I was
Meanwhile, Hannah stared at Brandon looking surprised at his decision.She sighed softly. Brandon was joking, there was no way Linda would work at the company. She would not allow it, never.It was morning the next day and Hannah had gotten dressed up for work. She had left in her car all alone since Brandon left early because he needed to see a client, who was waiting for him at the company early.The moment she arrived at the company, she saw all the workers gossiping and everywhere looked ununiformed. But the moment they saw her, everywhere became as silent as hell.She wondered what was going on.“Welcome ma’am,”“Welcome ma’am” they all muttered while they bowed their head and she nodded. She needed no soothsayer to tell her something was going on in the company.She called one of the employees and asked her to come with her to her office. The employee nodded and walked Behind as they walked to her office.The moment they got to her office, she dropped her bag on the table and tu
Meanwhile, Hannah had gotten home early from work. She had left Brandon at the company because he needed to be somewhere with his assistant, Liam.They needed to see the ongoing project on their new site.Hannah had gotten home and taken her bath after which she had prepared dinner. There weren’t many maids in the house, just Alex the butler, and two other housekeepers. Hannah had dismissed the other to go back to their family and children since it was a holiday period. The others at the house didn’t have any family to return to so they had to stay in Colby’s mansion.She walked inside the kitchen and prepared dinner after which she set the table. While she was setting the table, she heard the front door open.She raised her head and saw Lucas walk in. He wasn’t alone. He was with no one else but Linda.Hannah swallowed into nothing as Linda gave her a strange smile and walked towards her.“Hey, I didn’t know you would be coming,” Hannah said with a smile on her face.“And I didn’t k
