Zoey was sure she heard some hushed voice coming from inside, it went thus: 'Nova. You said we were having dinner alone.'

Her heart leapt, damn he came. He was here, and she was going to announce her daughter's existence in their very presence, in his presence too. She could do this, it didn't seem like an entirely bad thing, her confidence is all built up, but then Nova is standing right outside the door, one of her hands etched firmly at the handle.

She's staring at them, wondering if she could hurriedly place the resemblance between the two of them, Zoey held her breath the entire time, Nova wasn't dumb, that was for sure. It would take any sane person to piece two and two together.

But then, Nova smiles, like none of the inspection happened, and finally she adjusts away from the door, "Come on in, guys! Stella, what an honor to see you, Sky won't stop gazing at the clock whether or not you are here."

Stella's face grows warm.

Zoey's heart thrummed. Sky was here, who was she ki

So sorry for late update, I know it's quite hard and some of you are wondering, 'What's wrong with this author? Why doesn't she update often?' It's hard this days, since I am just out of the hospital. As The Law of Desire is coming to an end, please bear with this author of yours as she tries to update.

    When you want to apologize to someone: You make them food, it's that simple, pack something light, not too bulky, something easily digestible and that's it. You've earned their forgiveness.Zoey didn't think that would work, but here she was, at Dexter's company, attempting to apologize over food.As she clutched the hand-basket in her hand, she started questioning all her life decisions, well, she should apologize for everything. The moment she reached the receptionist, she said, not too quite cheerfully."Hi." Her hand rasped the counter handle nervously, the receptionist was definitely not pleased because she gave Zoey a dirty look."Ma'am?" The receptionist with brown curly hair said angrily. "Do you need anything?"If only she knew she was speaking to Zoey Hart, maybe then, she wouldn't have acted like that."Sorry." Zoey cleared her throat, jingling the basket in her hand, "I am just here to see Dexter, that's it."The receptionist racked her hands loudly on the keyboard before

    15 Years ago,Fourteen year old Zoey walked around the huge living room, before finally slumping on the couch, she stared at the clock for a while, disappointment washing over her face.Her elder brother was already off to college and won't be back anytime soon, Alexis had no time for her since she was always busy with everything. Her father has gone on a business trip and won't be back for the next thirty days, and that leaves her with her mother.Zoey didn't know why, but the thought of being alone with her mother didn't seem to send any warmth to her heart. Back at school, everyone talked about their mother all the time, but Zoey, she just couldn't find anything to say."Zoey!" She heard her mother's voice coming from the door. Was she supposed to scuttle away and run to her room or she should just stay?"Mother." She chose the latter, bobbing to maintain her Stance, she saw her mother walk into the room with Nadia, Haylee's mother. She knew a few things about Nadia, the woman alwa

    Beep. Beep. Beep.The sound ringed into Zoey's ears, everywhere was so dark and blank, she tried floating in it, but it was so clogged together, like when you try so hard to come out of a pool of darkness.She struggled with the darkness, a bit of light shaded in her eyes, it seemed like hope. Great hope, that she started to try harder, and finally she blinked her eyes open. A pair of elderly eyes stared at her with so much concern."Oh, dear. You are finally awake." Her already graying hair was packed into a tight bun, and when she smiled. The wrinkles around her eyes seemed to deepen.Zoey stared around, it wasn't the familiarity of her four walled bedroom, or her living room or even her office. It was the white and green decor of a hospital that stared back at her."What happened?" Her mind reeled around different thoughts, then she remembered everything about Rafael, him being her twin sister. How could she not have noticed the bond? And how dare he lie to her? Anger pulsed throug

    The sky reminded Rafael that midnight was clocking, the hollow dark sky reminded him of his heart. Bland, full of nothing, just void.Still, his legs told me to get up and act like a man, but that's what he has been doing for pretty much all his life, and how did that end up for him?So, instead of acting like a man, he just sat in one of the town's quiet bars, and drank beer, even though the scorching taste never failed to replace the void he felt in his heart.He stared around the empty bar, he was the only one remaining, even the bartender was shooting him dirty looks from the counter.The door banged open, and the figure strutted over to him so graciously. "Rafael!" He recognized the voice, his co-partner in crime."Mira." He raised his glass at her, "You want a sip?"She seemed angry, for instance. Her eyes were blazing red, and when she stared hard at him, it stirred something in his heart."I found out." She said rather dryly, and he felt that jab again, loneliness etched his

    Zoey wasn't sure of what awoken her, maybe it was the stale of the cold, or the wonderful smell of food coming down from downstairs, hurriedly, she pulled her robe closer, stared at the unmade bed, and a little smile touched her lips graciously.He loved her. She loved him, she burned for him, crazy raw passion for only him. He wasn't in the bed, too bad, because she would have lured him back right into it. After her morning routine, she got dressed in her pale white t-shirt, and some jeans. She pulled her hair down, and even wore some make-up.She was right, the smell of food was directly coming from the kitchen, her daughter appeared out of nowhere, some flour dabbed on her right cheek, a tiny apron hugging her body."Mommy. We are making pancakes, we wanted it to be a surprise, you weren't supposed to be awake now." She pursed her lips together."Oh." Zoey stood there transfixed, her heart almost warming in the spot, was this was it like to love someone? He was making breakfast, he

    "It's weird right." Zoey handed him the glass of wine, and said in a very flat tone. "That we are related?" They were seated on the terrace, staring at the sky."Zoey. Please Just-""No!" Her yell filled his ears, and even though she knew she was acting illogical, still it hurts, it bleeds her heart, to see him here, acting all normal, like nothing happened, when a lot of things happened, first they were related, he didn't even bother to tell her, to even try and give her a hint."I want to rant, okay?" Her voice was cold, "How could you do something so evil? So bad. You wanted to get rid of me!""Zoey." Warning laced his voice, "Please don't.""Oh. No." Her eyes turned cold, "You don't deserve to come here and seek for apologize, you don't have to come here and beg for mercy like you fucking deserve it.""I don't deserve your forgiveness." He said quietly, "I just want you to hear me out.""Shut up!" She blared, her face turning pink, "Okay, you left me. You knew and you didn't tell

    Loud chattering filled the room, kids chasing each other, muttering words under their breath, some kids sprawled on the neat blue rug, playing with their toys.The kitchen linked to the living room, some adults were leaning against the island, each gripping a glass of wine. There's some muttering, no laughter here, just clear talking.Relax. Zoey's head throbbed, but she just couldn't. Dexter's hand was placed on hers, it was warm, at least that made her calm down a little, but still. She wanted to sprang up the seat, and protect those she loved, her mind reeled. To her mother's word, to Lin's words.Thankfully, Zara was talking to her cousin 'Damien', they seemed to be arguing though, but hey, it was her daughter."Everybody." Natasha clicked the glass, the whole room went silent. The kids stopped and turned to look at her, immediately she received the call, she didn't know what prompted her to call Natasha, Natasha was soothing on the other end, and they agreed to call a meeting.Li

    Stella had imagined countless things in her life, but here she was. Seating opposite her parents with Sky by her side, this time. She wasn't scared, hope brimmed in her chest, because with him she felt strong, she felt like somebody."You want to date him?" Her mother said, under those lashes of hers, her words held some kind of deep warning, "What about Doctor Rodriguez?"Her father dropped the spoon on the plate, the metallic sound filling their eyes. "Stella dear. You can't go out with him. He's not for-""I didn't come here for your approval." Her tone sent them all warning, Sky placed his hand on her shoulder, his gaze, a reassuring one. He turned towards her parents."I am Sky. Well, I dated your daughter, until you threatened me to leave her, I fell in love with her, again. I fell hard, I am still falling for her. She makes me, she completes me. I love her so much."Neither of them blinked."And I am sorry, but you can't stand in the way of our love," He breathed in, "She helpe

  • Daddy Is A Rich CEO   Epilogue.

    One year later,Thanksgiving day.The room smelt like any other thanksgiving room, roasted turkey, cream, salad and a bunch of people sipping wine. The dinner was about to start, and soon everyone was going to be saying what they were thankful for.Zoey recounted, she didn't even know where to begin, just one year ago, her life had changed ever so much. Perfectly well, it had gone along.Dexter came into her life, Rafael stumbled in, and oh, she didn't know how, but they both loved her daughter so much, well. Zara better get used to having two overprotective fathers.Miranda, Stella and Zoey have become quite the inseparable trio, having tea on Mondays, hitting the gyms, and gossiping about their husbands.Presently, Zoey was sprawled on the bed, her hands swiping through her phone, just waiting for it to be ringing, finally it chimed. She swiped it up immediately."Stella!" She beams, cheeks pink. "How's the baby moon going? Is Mexico alright?"Stella's voice sounded so angelic from

    Two Months later."Zoey hurry! We don't want to be late for Sky's concert. Do we?" Stella yells from the bedroom, her gaze directed at the dressing room."Coming! Just trying to get the zipper on, damn, it's too hard!" Zoey yells back.Stella takes in a little giggle, and stares outside the room, the view is perfect, she could see the sun set even from here. She was having a giddy feeling today, but it didn't sum up her excitement.Today was Sky's first concert after his music block has been overcomed and he was singing his new song. People are flooding all over Los Angeles just to hear his voice, She, Zoey and the rest already got their tickets. She couldn't wait to see him sing after his music block. Excitement is washing over her. She can't wait.Zara enters the room, a smile on her face. "Aunt Stella!" She throws herself towards her."How was your night? Little Pumpkin?" Stella nudges her hair playfully, her hands moving to tickle her."It's fine." Zara scrunched her nose, before

    Even though one week had passed and everything seemed to be moving well, Zoey still felt this urge: sinking and swimming through her, prompting her to see her mother in jail, so that's why early in the morning, she got into her Sedan and drove towards the lane."What do you want?" The receptionist barked at her, her face gruff, prison was not a good place, no doubt. It smelt of stale coffee, the place looks rugged, like criminals had been jacked into this place, struggling to get inside."I want to see my mother." Zoey made to speak again, but the angry looking woman waved her off."Sorry. Kid." The woman puffed her cigar in between her hands, "But visiting hours are over, if you would please return later, I am sure you would be entertained with whoever you want to meet."The woman is really rude, no doubt, but Zoey doesn't want to leave without seeing her mother. Sometimes, your name is very important, and if using that name would get her what she wants. Then, why the heck not?She

    The whole room felt so small as Zoey ran past them, it was like oxygen was racking her spine as she counted the rooms. Her breath was short-lived, she could only pray under her breath."Zara!" She calls out, fear evident in her voice, the pain of losing her own daughter sends tears to her eyes. The hall was stretched out, too many rooms. The stairs looking back at her.She stopped at the living room, she could feel the throbbing in her head."Zara! Please come out. Please." She just stood there rooted, it was like the alarm was buzzing in her head: countdown, five, four..Sweat clanged the corner of her hair, she checked her father's study, it looked rather untouched. Her father's favorite novel, 'Rich man, poor man,' sat there elegantly on the table. Hope. It needled through her, then vanished into thin air. She called again, this time more loudly, perhaps her daughter might hear her. "Zara!" The room was eerily quiet.With lost hope, she just stood there, she would rather blow with

  • Daddy Is A Rich CEO   Chapter 94:

    The next day came rather too quickly, and like her mother used to say when she was young: You just have to face it.So, when she sprang up from the bed, she kissed Dexter on the forehead gently before heading downstairs. Rafael was by the counter making cereal for her daughter while balancing a cup of coffee on one hand."Ready for the big day, huh?" He hands her a cup, while gently pouring the milk into the bowl, Zara watches with her eyes fluttering."It's funny how you made it sound so casual." Zoey says casually, everything has been planned, they are all meeting up in her father's house. Nova, her husband, Alec and his wife, Stella and Sky. Miranda was going to meet them there.Zara shoves her spoon into the bowl, her mouth full of corn flakes. "Mother. Can I come with you? Pretty please?""Yes. Dexter and I will get the car ready, why don't Rafael pick out your dress, okay sweetheart?"She nods and focuses on her food, just by staring at her daughter makes her heart swell, the on

    In life, you could be either lucky or unlucky, but there's no such thing as luck or not luck, it's the chance we have, it's the choice we get that defines us, not our luck, that's why as Lin sat down, fiddling with the hemline of her gown, she recalled all the choices she had got to make, and one of them dealt with forgiving her husband, Asher.He was only being threatened, he just wanted to protect her. He loves her, that's why he wanted to protect, because for the person you love, you could go through extreme lengths just to make sure they were safe."Lin? Lin, are you listening to me?" Asher said, clutching the cup of coffee in one hand.She snapped out of her daydream, before staring around, waiting. What was he saying? She didn't even hear a thing."I was saying whether we should take the kids to Disneyland this year?" That was one thing she would always love about him, his ability to remember anything."But Mommy, we went to Disneyland last year!" Her seven year old daughter wai
