Walking into the company that day, Gemma could see a lot of prying eyes of employees on her, like every other day. She wasn't surprised as this has been how she lived all her life. Her mother was the chairwoman of the company, her father, the CEO and it was a known fact to everyone that soon, her elder brother James would take over. She has a younger sister who was a supermodel and has been the model for every single one of the company’s products over the years. While she, on the other hand, was the unsuccessful daughter of the family with no stable position in the company. She knew the stares she was receiving wasn't one of admiration, but ridicule. “I wish I could live a jobless life like her without bothering about having a roof over my head, but sadly I don't have rich parents to spend on me,” she heard one of the employees say. It was an obvious attempt to shame her. She could only scoff. What everyone thinks of her, didn't bother her, knowing she has her supportive, rich and

“I only married her to be close to you, since you ain’t ready for marriage. I have no feelings for her.” These were Daniel’s words.Gemma’s eyes flew open at this words, she rose from the floor, her eyes never leaving Daniel’sHas their two years of marriage been a joke to him, the times he professed his unconditional love for her, when he proposed to her, the steamy nights they spent together, have they all been a joke to him?“Daniel, what are you saying?” She stuttered“It's exactly as you heard it. I've never loved you and I would never see myself loving you. Elena holds my heart. You're just a pawn I used to get close to her. I want to spend every single night and day with her. Since she didn't want to get married, I married you to stay right next to her. Now that she is ready to marry me, we should get a divorce,” he shrugged.“We’ve been together for two whole years and now you just want me to believe this?” Gemma asked.“Believe it or not, that's on you. Why do you think I ins

“What are you still doing in bed, Gemma. Have you forgotten today is your wedding day?” Elena’s loud voice woke Gemma from her sleep.She opened her eyes to find herself in her room.“I'm supposed to be at the hospital, I'm supposed to be dead,” she could only mumble and look around her, unable to understand what was going on.“I wonder if the fact that you're getting married to Daniel has altered your brain chemistry, sister,” Elena stared at her, not making any attempt to hide her irritation.Gemma reached for the mirror on her desk and stared at her reflection. “This wasn't the hairstyle I had on yesterday,” she noted.Unless her hairstyle had been changed in her sleep, but by who?The more she stared at herself, she realized she had seen that hair style before, it was from two years ago, when she had long hair, before her mum made her cut it to match Elena's who didn't like the fact that Gemma’s hair was longer than hers.“Mother wants you downstairs in five minutes. The stylist

Taking a bold step with her heart pounding, Gemma walked towards Derek who sat with an amused smile etched on his face.“What if he doesn't act along?” she thought, and really hoped he might take pity and not humiliate her.Gemma knew she had just stabbed her own foot by doing this. Derek was known to be rude and arrogant. In the past, he didn't show up at her wedding even after her mum tried all she could to make him come. But seeing him right here, she wondered what might have made him honour the invitation.Once she got to where Derek sat, she lowered her lips to his ears.“Act along, please,” she whispered.Derek could only smile.“You'll grant me a request then,” he whispered back to her.Gemma nodded.“How hard can the request be?” She thought.“He was Atlanta’s most eligible bachelor so he definitely has everything at his disposal.”She took his hand, making him rise from his seat.Elena almost choked to death at the sight before her.“Who the heck does Gemma think she is to h

“Marry me.”“Excuse me?” Gemma gazed at him like he had just made the biggest joke of the year, then giggled.“I'll be off then, Mr. Fegurson, since you really don't have any request to ask.”Derek gazed at the woman before him, wondering what she was giggling about when he meant every single word he just uttered.“Do I look like I’m joking?” He asked, not letting go of her arm. Gemma paused for a moment, looking at him. “This man doesn't seem to be joking," she muttered “Well, I'm thankful for how you played along in there, but that doesn't mean I will marry you just because I agreed to grant you one request…”“You did agree to grant me a request and this is it,” he cut her off.“People meet, fall in love, and date before they get married, Mr. Fegurson. I don't even know anything about you.”“Yeah, you met, fell in love, and dated the guy you just turned down at the altar too, right?” Derek asked, his intelligent orbs stared at the woman before him.“I…I…don't even know past your

It was never in Derek’s plan to grace the wedding invitation today, as a matter of fact, the invite came to him weeks ago but he never bothered to give it a second look. Instead he requested for it to be disposed of just like every other wedding invitation he had gotten in the past.Being Atlanta’s most eligible bachelor and number one billionaire, invitations are sent to him on a regular basis and never had he graced any one of them that didn't bring a growth in his business, just like the marriage invitation.“The wedding invitation you got from the Brauns is today,” his assistant walked in with a wedding invitation in his hand.“I thought I asked you to dispose that…”“You did, but I feel you might be interested in the eldest Miss Braun, she can be a wonderful addition to the company’s staff,” Logan proposed.“Why do you think she’ll agree to leave her family company for ours?” Derek asked, interested.“I don't think she is happy with the family. I've been watching her for a while.

The newly wedded couple walked into the enormous living room hand in hand. Deep down, Gemma was a bit nervous but then she consoled herself with the fact that whatever she sees here wouldn't be worse than what she had already seen at home. Strangers mistreating her was far more understandable than it being done by the people she shares blood with.“Son, you're home,” A feminine voice sounded right behind them.Turning around, Gemma knew exactly who she was. Anna Ferguson, Derek's mum. She had gone through the little intel Derek had given her back in the car.“Don't raise your voice at her, don't talk back at her or she’ll become agitated. She likes being in charge,” she reminded herself.She watched the woman pause and gaze at her.“Who is she? Why is she wearing a wedding dress? And most especially why is she clinging onto you like that?” “One question at a time, mum. I'm sure you don't want to scare your daughter in law away,” Derek smiled.“What!” Her voice echoed.Gemma could alr

Gemma couldn't tell who was more shameless between the lady before her and her sister back home. Walking towards the bed and watching her stupid moves, Gemma named her “ Elena of the Ferguson family” only that she wasn't going to let this person ruin her life like her sister did.Getting to the bed, she stood watching Rachel twist her body, lift her ass and slide from one side of the bed to another.Gemma wondered the perfect way to deal with the lady before her.“Don't just stand there, baby. Come have a taste,” Rachel spoke yet again, much to Gemma’s annoyance. She looked down at the bottle in her hands and could only smile.“Seems like I found my first ally,” her gaze softened.“I should make her proud,” she told herself and got onto the bed.“Yes, baby, that's it…turn me around, I'll go down on all fours, fuck me till I loose my senses,” An unsuspecting Rachel moaned. She had noticed how Derek seemed annoyed with her earlier, so this was her way of getting his mind off whatever

Back home, Gemma and Derek were seated on the bed. Derek was nearly losing his mind, it hasn't been more than three hours since his so called siblings arrived, yet Nora had fought them up to five times. The constant drama was making his head ache. Gemma just sat right next to him, smiling while listening to Nora's exchange with Roselle.When it all got too much, Gemma couldn't stop herself from giggling. Her giggle brought a nearly frustrated Derek's attention to her.“What?” He asked, staring at her and wondering what the heck was making her giggle.“Nothing,” Gemma responded, covering her mouth with her palm.Derek gave her a suspicious look but then looked away.“Get the fools out of here, Derek!” Nora's loud voice sounded right outside the door. Her shouts was followed by a banging sound on the door.“Fuck!” Derek cursed.“I'll get the door,” Gemma smiled, rising from her seat.Walking over to the door, Gemma pulled it open and out there stood Nora with a very disorganised hair an

Dressed in a sweatpants and tee-shirt, Logan got off his car and found his way into Braun Companies. Walking in there, he met the receptionist at the front desk.“I'm here for the CEO. Where is his office?” He asked.At first the woman failed to recognize him as this would be her first time seeing him in anything other than a business suit.“Do you have an appointment with him?” She asked.“Do I need an appointment to see him?” Logan asked back, giving the woman a death stare.“I'll inform him of your presence,” she backed down, picking up the telephone.“Show him to the CEO's office,” she instructed one of the security guards, who quickly bowed at Logan before leading him away.Logan had a grim look on his face as he approached Nathaniel's office.Andrea had tried to persuade him not to confront Nathaniel but he didn't want to hear any of that. He could provide shelter for Andrea if her life was ever in danger because of this. After all, it would be his payment to her for having Gem

After the incident at the Ferguson’s mansion, Logan couldn't put aside the nagging feeling he kept having. Maybe, James wasn't the one who made an attempt on Gemma's life this time. It could have been Nathaniel. Judging from what Andrea told him, his dad could've been behind the threat.His fist clenched as Andrea's trembling words resonated into his mind. The weight of her revelation made his chest tighten with anger and disbelief. Nathaniel, his own father, was plotting against Gemma, his only daughter! The thought alone was enough to nearly make him lose his mind.He could picture Andrea saying every word of Nathaniel's foolishness.Andrea wiped her tears, her hands shaking. "He said if I didn’t cooperate, he’d ruin me, Gemma, my career...everything. I didn’t know what to do, Logan. I thought I could handle it, but now I realize I’m in over my head."Logan took a deep breath, forcing himself to stay calm. "Start from the beginning," he urged, his voice steady. "What exactly has N

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
