“How dare you cheat on me,” Rachel’s loud voice resonated just across the hallway. Everyone’s attention went in her direction. They all watched her storm over to them, her eyes trained on Derek the entire time.“What is she still doing here?” the old man asked, he has never liked Rachel. Samuel had informed him about her escapades, way before Derek found out.The old man enjoyed watching his grandkids from the side and never once has he interfered with their lives, he only steps in when he felt something was beyond their control.“I’ll handle this, grandpa,” Derek said and stepped forward“Hey…” Nora called Gemma’s attention to herself.Gemma whose entire focus had been on Rachel, as she thought of thousands of ways to deal with her. This lady was the reason for the bitterness of the first person that has been genuinely sweet to her without knowing anything other than her name.Looking at Nora, she winked at her “Need more pepper? One container wasn’t enough to keep her away,” she wh

To Daniel, Elena and Rachel were just pawns in the big game he was playing. The truth was that he had only made wealth from seducing rich heiresses and making them fall so stupidly in love with him that they impulsively hand over their family wealth to him. His initial plan was to seduce Gemma, seeing that she was the eldest daughter of the Brauns. He had watched the family from afar and knew that James was very incompetent and Gemma was likely to get the company. So, like he had always done, he approached Gemma and slowly got into her heart, then they started dating. What he never expected was to fall madly for Gemma’s charms, almost altering his plans for her sake. But then, Elena made a move on seducing him. He saw the chance to get free sex and actualise his goal, so he grabbed it. He would take over the company and give Gemma a stable position seeing how she didn't have post of her own at the company, that had been his plan, until everything fell apart on their wedding day.“My w

Derek led Gemma up the stairs, his grandfather and Nora trailed right behind them. Gemma was suddenly exhausted from all the day's drama. Her life has never been this busy before and she has never had this much supportive people around her.“I'll let you stay here for today. But tomorrow morning, the both of you are going for a honeymoon. I'm tired of seeing the same old faces in this house all the time. I need new faces,” the old man complained.“Hire more maids then,” Nora laughed.“I want great grandkids!” He shut her up.The duo laughed, while the newly wedded couple headed up the stairs.“When will your assistant be here?” Gemma asked Derek, the moment they were out of earshot.His gaze fell on her face for a few seconds, leaving her wondering what she might have said wrong, then he sighed and looked away.“He’ll be here tomorrow morning…”“Why not today?” Gemma cut him off.“Are you that eager to sign the contract?” He asked. Gemma raised her head to look at him.“Why not?” she

Derek was trying so hard to hold his laughter. He was so used to pulling his clothes off the moment he walked into his room that he forgot that someone was there with him today.“We’re going downstairs for dinner. We eat our meals together here. We can shower after dinner,” he randomly pulled out a sweatpant.“We?” Gemma couldn't stop herself from asking.“What the heck is wrong with this man!” “Yeah, we shower after dinner….Separately,” he added, smiling at the mortified young lady.“Why are your hands out in the air like you touched something contagious,” he asked, raising an eyebrow at Gemma who didn't know what to do with her hand.“I…I,” she stuttered, bringing her hand down but avoiding touching herself.“Want me to help you cut it off?” Derek teased her.Her gaze went to him and she glared at him.“Let's go have dinner,” he smiled.“I wonder what you'll use to eat, considering how your hand has been contaminated by my…”“Don't…” Gemma stopped him from saying the last word He

Nora walked into the room with a smile plastered on her face. She was the heiress of a large conglomerate, so she had learned how to mask her emotions from a very young age.“How was it?” She laughed, making her presence known.Gemma turned around at the sound of her voice, but then the earlier drama flashed her mind and her cheeks reddened in embarrassment.“It was a mistake, Nora,” she looked away.Nora smiled and didn't press it, even though she was smiling this way, she wasn't in the mood for jokes, the news article and Elena’s speech had annoyed her to the core.“I'll unzip the dress,” she offered, making Gemma turn around.Soon, the wedding dress was piled at her feet and she slipped on Derek’s clothes. It felt super comfortable.“Smells like him, huh,” Gemma winked at her and she smiled..“Let's go down for dinner,” Gemma said, remembering how Derek had mentioned that his entire family always had dinner together. She didn't want to be the reason why Nora misses dinner.“About t

Gemma couldn't calm herself down, she was furious throughout the entire flight. Next to her was a pissed off Derek who kept clenching and unclenching his jaw.“I'm sorry for dragging you into my family drama,” Gemma suddenly apologized.The truth was that she knew Derek’s name had only been uttered by Elena because he had chosen to stay by her side.“There is no reason for you to apologize. I proposed this marriage, not you,” he replied.His gaze settled on her for a while and both held each other's gaze in silence.Derek couldn't help but notice how misty Gemma’s eyes had gotten.“Don't tell me you're going to cry because of a simple news article and an insignificant video,” he let out.Gemma looked away from him, trying to hide her tears.Everything had happened so fast today that she didn't have the time to process it all and once again what started like a good day will end in shambles because of her family's shamelessness. She had woken up to a new life today to have her revenge,

After having dinner, the couple cleared the table together without uttering a word to each other.“The cleaners weren't informed about my arrival, they should be here tomorrow morning,” Derek said as the placed the dishes in the sink.“I'll wash them then. We can't leave these things here till morning. They'll smell,” Gemma muttered and instantly turned on the tap.“I’ll help out,” Derek picked up the sponge.“You can rinse them and place them in the rack. I'll wash.” He left no room for arguement.The duo stood washing the plates in silence and soon they were done. “Never knew billionaires wash dishes,” Gemma couldn't stop herself from uttering.“There are a lot of things you don't know,” the other party smiled.“I'll go shower, you can come if you want to…We're married, you know,” Derek gazed at Gemma, maintaining a serious expression.“What?” The young lady was stunned.“Don't forget to breathe, Gemma, I'm just joking,” Derek laughed his way into the room, leaving Gemma standing a

“Why are you holding my boobs!” A startled Gemma yelled, hitting Derek’s hand off her chest.Even though he was stunned at how he mistaken his wife’s boobs for a pillow, I mean it's very soft. He maintained his facade and yawned, turning to the other side of this bed, as if in a deep sleep.“I know you're awake, you pervert!” A startled Gemma accused. Without thinking, she smacked his back that was turned against her.“I'm awake!” Derek yelled, instantly rising from the bed.“Explain what your hand was doing on my boobs,” she narrowed her eyes at him.“It was a mistake….” Derek was trying to say, but was cut off.“Your hands were placed on my boobs while you were wide awake and you want me to believe it's a mistake?” She asked like he had just made the biggest joke of the year.Derek shook his head, deciding to be petty.“I mean you were also wide awake when you grabbed my little man yesterday,” his gaze went from Gemma’s face down to his member, Gemma’s eyes followed every movement o

Leaving the bed was like a chore to Gemma. All she wanted was to lay back there and have a well deserved rest. Her life has been on a roller coaster these past few weeks and to top it all, she was going back to work in just two days. She was going to face her crazy father. “Oh, lord,” she could only mumble. She could feel her head begin to ache, making her sigh.“What's wrong?” Derek asked, approaching her.Gemma shook her head.“Nothing, I'm just tired,” she told him.“You know you don't have to go welcome my dad's kids. You can stay back. I'll be back before you know it,” Derek offered and tried to make her lay back down.“It's nothing. I should see them,” she got off the bed, slipping her legs into her flipflops.“Let's go,” she gave Derek a small smile.Derek could only sigh.“How about I carry to downstairs,” he winked at her.Gemma gave him a suspicious glare.“No, I'm good,” she rolled her eyes at him.“If you say so,” Derek shrugged, then winked at her.The couple found their

“Derek, about the guy you took hostage yesterday,” Gemma tried starting up a conversation with Derek.It was already morning but the events of the previous day was still fresh on her mind.Her words made Derek look at her.“You already know James sent him. Why else are you still keeping him here. You can hand him over to the police and get James too,” Gemma complained, staring at him.“We already spoke about this, Gemma. The police won't be able to do a thing…at least not now,” Derek shrugged.“What do you mean?”“You think a guy like this will easily give out James’ name? You're smarter than this, sweetheart…Just let me handle it my own way,” Derek said, gently patting her hair.“But…” Gemma tried to counter.“Just forget it, Gemma. Besides, James shouldn't just be punished. I just don't want him to end up arrested by the police and then he goes to jail and sort…where he might likely get parole or even escape. I want him gone forever. I want him gone from the surface of this earth.”G

Back at the hospital, Elena sat staring at her phone. She had just called Gemma but then it was as if Gemma didn’t want yo speak with her. Gemma had hung up and now her number isn't reachable. Which only meant one thing, Gemma had turned off her phone to avoid speaking to her.“So much for wanting to be at peace with me,” she mumbled.Seated right beside the bed, Sylvia couldn't help but glare at Elena. Her entire Praters had been for the girl to just die but that didn't happen. Now, she was stuck here, having yo look after her to protect her family.“Mother, Did Gemma say anythinhg while I was unconscious?” She turned in Sylvia's direction.“No, I made her leave. That girl is absolutely horrible. Stay away from her. She means no good…”“Mother,” Elena tried to cut her off, but Sylvia wouldn't let her say a word.“Forget all about the reconciliation and sisters nonsense she talked about. You two can never get along. You’re kind and worlds above her while she is merely beneath your toe

“I think Elena is awake,” Gemma mumbled, showing Derek the caller ID.Derek sighed. He wasn't going to let Gemma step foot out of the house, at least not today.“Let me have the phone, Gemma,” he muttered.Before Gemma could find time to react, he took the phone from her and hung up the call, then proceeded to turn off the phone.“What are you doing?” Gemma was surprised by his actions.“I can't let you go out. At least not today. I need to know what else that darn brother of yours is up to. Until I'm able to figure that out, you'll remain in here!” Derek declared, his eyes never left Gemma as he made these declarations.“Derek…” Gemma tried go argue but he cut her off.“Please, sweetheart,” he held her shoulders and stared right into her eyes“I already lost you once. I can't lose you again. Heavens gave us a second chance to be together. We can't ruin it. We can't mess it up. We have to be together for as long as we can. Just listen to me, please my love.

The mansion was suddenly alive with chaos. The sharp sound of gunshots echoed. Derek grabbed Gemma’s arm and pulled her deeper into the walk-in closet, shutting the door and grabbing his gun from a hidden compartment in the corner.“Derek!” Gemma yelled out, trying to push the door open and rush out.“Stay in there, Gemma. Do not come out until everything dies down,” Derek ordered her for the first time, his voice firm, leaving no room for argument.Gemma’s heart pounded as he stepped out, locking eyes with her one last time before closing the closet door.The sound of Derek’s footsteps faded into the background of muffled voices and the relentless pounding of her own heartbeat. The entire place was completely quiet for a few seconds, adding to Gemma’s fear. But then all hell broke loose once again. The unmistakable clash of bodies followed by the deafening discharge of another gunshot filled the air. Gemma pressed her hands to her ears, trembling. A loud thud reverberated through the

“Derek!” Gemma's voice squealed as they exited the bathroom. Derek had just grabbed her from behind.“What?” He asked, acting nonchalant and oblivious of where his hands were rested.“Get your hand off me,” Gemma attempted being serious and strict.“Or else what?” Derek raised a brow, adjusting his hands on her butt. “You're shameless,” Gemma could only shake her head, hitting his hand off and heading for the closet.“Whose fault? You turned a holy man like me into something else. You have to bear the consequences," Derek shrugged, following her into the closet. Since it was a walk-in closet, there was more than enough space to contain the two of them as it was practically a huge room on it's own.“Let me cream your body,” Derek offered, leaning against the wall and watching Gemma pick out pajamas. “I can do that myself, you shameless man,” Gemma rolled her eyes.Once she got the pajamas, she tried walking out of the closet but then Derek had other plans.“What if I tie up your hands

As Gemma headed up the stairs with Derek, she could feel the weight of Nora’s words and the relentless back-and-forth they’d just had. Her mind kept replaying the moments she once shared with Nora, back when she thought they’d always support each other. Now, with each step, she felt the growing realization that their friendship had become something that would never be. At least to her, she was never going to have anything to do with Nora. Once they reached their room, Derek closed the door behind them, leaning back against it with a sigh.“Are you okay?” he asked softly.Gemma nodded, though her expression said otherwise. “It’s just… Nora, she…she hurt me,” she stuttered.Derek placed a gentle hand on her shoulder. “You’ve been through so much just for her. You don’t owe her anything, Gemma. She is my sister, not yours. You're not obliged to have a good relationship with her. If she’s choosing the company’s interests over your well-being, then let her go.”Gemma nodded.“You’re rig

“Is Derek upstairs?” Nora asked, walking into the living room. She had just gotten back from work.Looking at her, she seemed like she was the least person Anna's death affected. Probably because she never had a close relationship with Anna. Derek had always been everyone's favorite child.“He went out with his wife earlier,” Samuel responded, walking right past her.“Where did he go to? I thought he said he won't be leaving the house for a week?” She asked.“Well, you can get the info on his whereabout from him, if you maybe try calling him and stop interrogating me. Excuse me…” Samuel walked away, leaving Nora standing there surprised. This was the first time Samuel talked to her this way.As Samuel walked over to oversee the affairs of the maids, he could only berate himself for letting his emotions take the better part of him.The truth is that he had heard about how Nora took Gemma's position. Yes, he had raised Nora. But Gemma was his grandchild who has been through a lot. Anyone

“Let's leave and come back later,” Derek tapped Gemma's hand.“I'm worried about her,” Gemma mumbled, staring at Elena's figure, much to Derek's surprise.“You want to stay then?” He asked and Gemma nodded.Not saying another word, Derek found a seat at one corner of the room and lowered himself there.“You're worried about someone that tried to ruin your life,” Sylvia was not giving up anytime soon.Gemma didn't spare her a glance and simply focused her eyes on Elena.“This sly little thing got married to an old hag while trying to spite you….”Sylvia's words caught Gemma off guard.“What?”“Well, Elena dearest ended up getting married to a vile old man just to spite you. The old man almost took her away the moment she woke up. But Max was able to stop him.”Staring at Sylvia, Gemma didn't know whether to believe her words or not. Growing up right next to Sylvia, she knew how much the woman could lie. She could tell a perfect lie while maintaining a graceful smile.“Look outside, I'm
