Earlier, Derek was summoned because of the products, right in the middle of his arguement with some of his board members and a few from the Braun's Company, he got a phone call, it was from Victor and Victor had informed him of Gemma's presence at her family company. At first, he had told Victor to just take her home when she was done, having known his workaholic wife, he knew she was probably missing doing her work. But then Victor mentioned how Esther had suddenly alerted him and suspected something was off. Coupled with the fact that he knew that Gemma hated the sight of Nathaniel, but then, she seemed in a haste to go meet him earlier, like she had some sort of business with him. Having known Victor for long, Derek knew how calculating and observant he was. If he said something seems off, that means something was definitely off. Instantly he excused himself and drove directly to find Gemma. Never did he expect that he was rushing to get his heart shattered and trampled upon. “Gem

“Will you be going back to guest room tonight?” Derek asked, walking away from Gemma. Looking at him, Gemma couldn't stop her tears from falling. His utterance made her realize how much this man loves her. Her insecurity had gotten the best of her. Being betrayed by the people close to her heart at the least expected time, had made her heart really guarded unknowingly and now it messed her up. It messed up her only true relationship. “Derek, I….I want to sleep here tonight, with you,” she mumbled. “That's settles it then, I'll be sleeping in the guestroom,” Derek said like he didn't hear what she just said. “I…I was insecure and afraid, I'm sorry, Derek,” Gemma cried, rising to her feet and walking over to where he stood, staring into nothingness. “Your apology means nothing to me, Gemma. You're only doing all these because I found out about your vile plan, if I never found out, you wold have gone ahead with it and still keep it hidden to yourself. Just keep your pretentious apolo

“I'll never marry a wife with a traumatic childhood,” Logan mumbled. Derek simply forced out a chuckle at their words. All he wanted to do at that moment was hold Gemma and tell her to wipe her tears. But he knew he couldn't afford to do that. If he does, in the future Gemma might exclude him from an important decision again and who knows, it might even be more severe than this. Turning to Logan, Derek hit his head slightly. “I came here to have some alone time but you two ruined it…” “You're welcome, Derek. I know that's your way of saying thank you to us for keeping g you company,” Victor spoke. Logan chanted in support of him, making Derek shake his head. “About the threat on Gemma's life?” Derek who couldn't stop worrying about Gemma raised the subject again. Logan glanced at Victor and then looked back at Derek, indirectly asking if it was okay to talk in Victor's presence. Victor scoffed. “I'm not leaving!” “Go ahead,” Derek mumbled, knowing how stubborn Victor was. T

“That's…that’s her,” Derek stuttered.“No way,” Logan added.“Hello?” The voice sounded again, and then Victor hung up.“We all know who the culprit is,” he stated.“Is Andrea at home right now?” Derek asked.“She went out earlier, I doubt she is back,” Logan said still staring at the phone in disbelief.“Let's all go over to your house and wait for her to return,” Victor stated with urgency.“Gemma is still crying,” Derek mumbled.“You, go to her then. Victor and I will go do with that bitch,” Logan shrugged.“So, what's the plan?” Victor asked.For over twenty minutes, they all sat there on the floor, going over their plan over and over again and once they were satisfied, they swung into action.“I'll go too, I'll send Esther to be with Gemma. This is about her safety,” Derek sighed.Victor and Logan didn't bother saying a word to him. Knowing he was a hopeless romantic, he might suddenly change his mind and decide to go be with Gemma.Pushing the door open and heading down the stai

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.

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

“It's not what you think,” Gemma stuttered upon laying eyes on the figure at the door. “Gemma, tell me I heard wrong!” Gemma looked down at her fingers on her thighs, her hands trembling, her knees weakened and before she could hold back, she slumped into the seat she had initially rejected. “What are you doing in my office?” Nathaniel fumed. “Gemma tell me I heard wrong,” the figure at the door said, shock and denial evident in his face. “Derek, I'm…I'm sorry. Whatever you heard is true,” Gemma stuttered. At her words, Derek stumbled backwards, but was held in place by an equally shocked Victor. “You…you wanted to get rid of our baby without informing me?” Derek asked, still in complete denial. “I'm sorry, Derek. I never wanted you to find out this way,” Gemma bowed her head. “No, Gemma. You never wanted me to find out at all! If I wasn't informed of your presence here today, I wouldn't have known and you would have gone ahead to get rid of our baby outside of my knowledge. T

"So, why do you suddenly want to visit your family company? I thought you took days off. You're supposed to go back to work on Monday, which is tomorrow, not today?” A curious Victor asked as he drove down the road. “It's personal,” Gemma mumbled, looking out the window. A clear indication for Victor not to ask again. Respecting her wish, Victor focused on driving and not once did he utter another word to her. “We're here,” he announced, pulling into the company's parking lot. “You'll have to wait for me here, I'll join you soon,” Gemma said the moment the car came to a halt. “Sorry, but I'm coming with you,” Victor shrugged, having heard what Logan said about the threats on Gemma and the possibility that the perpetrator might actually be in this very building, didn't put him at ease. He wasn't going to let himself be a scapegoat for Derek's anger. “Victor, I…” Gemma tried to dissuade him, but, Victor cut her off. “It's either we go in together or we go back home together. The

“I can't, Esther,” Gemma mumbled and without saying another word, she grabbed her phone and exited the room. Esther stood looking at her. If only this lady realizes how much Derek loves and is willing to sacrifice for her. The truth was that after getting to know she was related to Derek Ferguson, she had made her research about him and found out he had a wife whom he was crazy about. As someone who researched and monitored Derek and Gemma for months. She knew they were head over heels for each other, most especially Derek. It wouldn't surprise her if Gemma brings up this abortion issue to Derek and he actually supports it. That was the extent he would go for Gemma's happiness and peace of mind. But why has Gemma not realized this yet? Esther couldn't help but question herself while staring at the door Gemma had walked through. Sighing, she went after Gemma and just then she saw her exiting the mansion. Esther hurried over to the room right next to hers, knocking like her life depend

“How is this possible?” Gemma was shocked, she stared down at her phone on the ground.Rubbing her hand on her eyes to make sure she had seen the content of the text, she picked up her phone one again and gazed at the content of the text.“Gemma, I didn't find your phone in the room, you said I could use it!” Esther called out, walking into the room, just when Gemma was about smashing her phone on the ground the second time.“Gemma! What's wrong?” Esther yelled, rushing over to her. The door was open so she didn't see any need to knock.“Why do you want to smash your phone?” She asked, startled.Quickly, she grabbed Gemma's phone from her to prevent her from smashing it on the floor.And just as she grabbed it, her eyes caught sight of the text.“Gemma,” she whispered, looking up at Gemma.Gemma was quick to snatch the phone from her.“Don't tell anyone about this?” Gemma told her.“You should tell Derek,” Esther suggested, looking up at her.“No one should know, most especially him,”

“Gemma, something happened! Your name is on the news!” A loud banging followed by Esther’s loud voice woke Gemma from sleep the next morning.“What?” She mumbled, her eyes flickering open.“Open the door! Your name is all over the news!” Esther yelled yet again, banging on Gemma's door.“Get away from there,” Gemma could hear the butler hushing the little girl.Not bothering to slip her foot into her house slippers, Gemma got off the bed and pulled the door open.Esther raced in that instant, escaping Samuel who was just about to grab her.“Come see,” she waved at Gemma.Shutting the door, merely acknowledging the butler, Gemma walked over to the bed where Esther was already seated.“Derek's company released a new product with you as the model. Then two hours later, your family company released the same product…you're also the model,” Esther announced.“What?” Gemma was so stunned that she took Esther's phone from her.“What the?” Her eyes nearly wide as saucers.“It has sparked a deba
