"To steal from Maurice," Hadley scoffed remembering what transpired at Gilbert's mansion and she just could not reason with the people.

First, they asked her to stand up for their daughter but now they even asked her to steal

She could still remember the woman's words vividly. "You just have to get your hands on the file I heard Elliot guides it well but I know you could help us get abd immediately you get we would get you out of the house," that was Grandma Gilbert's words to her and she wondered if she meant it.

Hadley was tempted to believe her words and she knew if she was not kidding that means she could leave the place pretending to be someone she is not.

"That means I just need to look for a file and then I could leave, right?"

Hadley looked around the room and she wondered if she could get her hands on any files at all and she started opening some cabinets in the room but Maurice's voice halted her actions.

"What are you doing?" He asked and that halted her actions. Hadley's

    Hadley looked at the man that was staring at her with a teasing face and she quickly shook herself back to reality not falling for the temptation of the offer.He might be pulling my legs again, I'm definitely not falling for it, Hadley thought and she shook the man away."What do you think I am, a pervert?" Hadley scoffs and she disengaged from the compromising position she was staying with the man.Hadley could feel her heart beating loudly as she tried to calm herself down and she walked hurriedly to the car leaving the man alone."Do I do too much?" Maurice mumbled scratching his head and he followed the woman not understanding why she was so flustered he was just teasing her."How can you be going home without getting the things we came to buy?" Maurice asked Hadley immediately he entered the car but Hadley ignores so Maurice didn't push it again."If you are so keen on buying you can go but I am not going with you," Hadley says as she rests her head on the headrest of the car.S

    Maurice looked at Ella after she finished narrating Gilbert's plan to him and he got angry just thinking about how the family could be so callous."So you mean they did all those things because of a simple acquaintance?" Maurice asked and Ella nodded even though she knew it was more than a simple acquaintance.Maurice thought about the new information he just gathered and he was relieved that Hadley was not involved in the conspiracy and she was just a victim like him. He could now see her in a new light without having doubts."Don't show your face," Maurice says and Ella furrows her eyebrow in confusion wondering what the man was saying. "I know you might see me as an unreliable man but can I ask you not to show your face in front of people and let this play go on with your sister as my wife?" Maurice says and Ella's eyes widened in surprise.Maurice Elliot was asking her to stay hidden so her sister could remain his wife!"What are you saying? You are not going to tell Hadley that y

Don't you want to stop living this life, then why are you feeling that way?

    The morning sun seeped into the room gently and Hadley groaned after the morning breeze flapped her face and she stretched lazily on the bed but her eyes went wide open when the memories of last night rushed to her head."What have you done, Hadley?" Hadley mumbled, still not understanding what she did the other night. "What a nice thing to do, you make out with your sister's husband, what a nice thing to do," she mocked herself but she started blushing when she remembered the moment.The kiss was heart-fluttering for her and she didn't think she was going to forget it in a while but she knew the man might not feel that way."But I have never been so good in a long time," she says, throwing her leg around. She stood still in shock when her leg kicked something."What's that? That's not a person, right?" She mumbled and her body stiff in shock. She knew things got hearted between her and Maurice the other night but she was sure they did not take it far because she ran off the garden in

    Hadley tries her best not to look at Maurice's face because she was scared of the look he might have on his face. He must be so mad at her for lying to him but it was not like she had a choice, right? Hadley thought."Even though whatever you want to tell me is important don't you think you should stand up from the cold floor first," Maurice's worried voice rang out and that jolted Hadley out of her reverie. "Yes, I should…" Hadley says hurriedly getting up and she lost her footing but this time instead of crashing into the ground Maurice's strange arm was wrapped around her waist."Did you have the knack of losing your balance?" Maurice asked with an amused voice and Hadley's face flushed because of their close proximity."So you were saying something about a text message?" Maurice asked after making sure Hadley was already on her feet but she noticed the woman had gone silent. "Are you okay?" He asked and Hadley nodded vigorously. "Yes I am fine," she says but she sees that Maurice w

    Hadley looked at Maurice's serious face and she thought the man was pulling her legs but Maurice's serious face answered her question and she knew the man was not joking."What did you mean by date? We are already married, is that not enough, why do we need to date again?" Hadley says putting the notion off and when Maurice noticed her nonchalant attitude he didn't say anything."You think so," Maurice says getting out of the car and Hadley felt awkward seeing his reaction.But it was not her fault she reacted that way the man should have not asked her that kind of heart-thumping question. "Did I say anything wrong?" Hadley asked after seeing Maurice's solemn face but the man just gave her a sad smile."No you are right, we don't need to date because we are already married and we can do things that married people do," Maurice says and Hadley choked on her saliva hearing what the man says.What does he mean by doing what married people do? How can he say something dangerous like that?

She could not wait for her grumpy husband to think she was slacking off.Just as Maurice's thought crossed Hadley's mind the man walked into the room. Hadley did not even bother to acknowledge him because she was still embarrassed about what the man did the other day."I did not hear a good morning," Maurice says but Hadley snorted. "There is nothing good about the morning," Hadley says, not bothering with the man but she just hears the man chuckle."What's funny? I did not remember saying anything funny?" Hadley says, turning to glare at the man. "Are you this cranky because I did not sleep with you last night?" Maurice asked and Hadley gasped."You! What did you mean by sleep with me?" Hadley asked, looking at Maurice like he was some terrorist that needed to be apprehended. "I mean are you angry that I did not sleep in this room last night?" Maurice asked and Hadley felt

They couldn't find the reason for his rash, but they ran a test on his brain, which he was examined to be suffering from shock.“What are you saying, doctor?” Mr. Elliot, Maurice's father, asked the doctor because whatever he was hearing sounded strange to him. “It's just as you heard chairman, your son might be suffering from a great shock which leads to his allergy coming back.” The doctor said, referring to Maurice's allergy to woman's touch.“But that's not possible, I mean he doesn't have the rash, no matter who he touches now and..” she was saying, but the doctor interrupted her.“I understood your stance ma'am, but that doesn't change the fact that his allergy has returned, and it might be best if you consulted a psychiatrist.” The doctor said, and Mrs. Elliot burst into tears.She didn't know her son was that vulnerable, and his wife's death would be a

After Robert Gilbert, Hadley, and Ella's father, ordered for the explosion of the building, he went home like he did nothing wrong to create a perfect alibi for himself. “Hello, I hope you did a clean job.” He breathed into his phone as he watched the news broadcasting about the explosion of the building. “Yes boss.” The person at the other end of the phone assured him.“That's good, make sure you go into hiding because the police might get up to something we wouldn't want, right?” He said, hanging up on the phone.He would make sure that he cleaned off any evidence that might make the people suspicious of him. He needed to save his empire, and if sacrificing his two daughters was the price, he surely wouldn't hold it down.“Now that I have this with me, I don't think anything would ever stand in my way in the business world.” Robert beamed, and he picked up the file to go to his room, but his wife rushed

    The news about Ella's death reached the Elliott's family, and they all rushed down to the police station to confirm it because it was unbelievable to them. “Where is my son?” Mrs. Elliot asked, and the police officers took her to Maurice, who was sulking at the check room where Hadley's body was placed. “Maurice.” Mrs. Elliot called slowly as she walked to Maurice, but the man didn't bother to look at her. “They are telling a lie, Mom. They are all saying that the woman on that table is my wife, how can that be?” Maurice blurted, and his mother's feast aches watching her son suffer so much. Her eyes trailed to the body on the table, which was covered with clothes, and she knew that officers couldn't be wrong with the identity. “Maurice, please, I'm sure that they couldn't be wrong with the identity of the body..” Mrs. Elliot was saying, but Maurice cut her off. “What did you mean by body? How is that a body? What if she is my wife, she has a name and..” Maurice trailed off seeing t

    An Hour Before The ExplosionHadley, Ella, and their mother were locked in a dark room by their father, with no way out. Hadley looked at her sister, who was in pain, and barely hanging on, and she hated herself for not telling Maurice about her father's plot.He would have prevented this from happening, but she was too stupid to grooved that her father was not the monster he was.“Are you okay, Ella? Are they in pain?” Hadley asked an obvious question, but Ella just chuckled. “I don't think that we should worry about me because I feared that any of us would be able to escape from here.” Ella said.“No, we would be able to escape, believe me, okay?” Hadley assured, but she knew she was the one that needed that assurance.“But how? Did you think we can..” Ella was saying, but she broke into tears. “Why are you crying, Ella? Can you not handle the pain?” Her mother asked, and Hadley got worried.“I'm sorry, I got you all into all this mess.” she said, but Hadley shook her head. “That's

    The afternoon sun slithered into the room, and Maurice groaned as he turned around on the bed. He has a horrible night, and coupled with his drunk self he has to wake up with a hangover.“Damn!” Maurice cursed as he felt his head banging with a headache, he pried his eyes open gently, and looked around the room he was in.He wasn't surprised that he wasn't in his room because he feared he might do something Hadley would hate him for if he stayed there.“This is crazy!” He cursed as he got down from the bed, but he almost lost his balance because his eyes were a bit blurry. He couldn't believe that he drank himself to stupor. “It's all her fault.” Maurice murmured.A part of him believed that Hadley didn't betray him, but he was too jealous and he acted rashly. He walked to the kitchen to fix himself a hangover soup, but he hoped that he wouldn't bump into Hadley because he feared he might not be able to control himself.He might have fallen to his knees and begged her not to divorce h

    Hadley's heartbeat increased as she feared who was coming into the room, but she released her breath when she saw the person, who just came in.“Are you okay, ma'am?” The maid, who just entered the room asked, and Hadley let out the breath she was holding.“Yes, I am.” She replied hurriedly, and hid the file she was holding. The maid was suspicious about Hadley's movement, but she couldn't pressure her if she wasn't ready to talk.She wouldn't want to lose her job. “Ok ma'am, then I will leave you to it.” The maid said, as age walked off and Hadley let out the breath she was holding. “Oh my goodness! That was such a narrow escape.” She mumbled.She looked at the file in her hand, and she knew she had to get out of the house before Maurice woke up. She wouldn't want to get caught by the man.“I have to get this to the heartless man before he does something to my sister.” She muttered, and walked out of that room. She got to the backdoor of the house, and sneaked out without anyone seei

    The starry night was illuminated by the moon, but Hadley felt gloomy as she looked at it. She was devastated and didn't know what to do.After she left the party while chasing after Maurice, she had this unsettling feeling that something was going wrong, and she didn't even know what that could be.“Are you not coming in, ma'am?" Hadley heard one of the maids ask, and she beamed her a smile telling her that she was fine.“No, I am going to wait for my husband," Hadley replied, asking the maid not to worry about her. Yes, Maurice wasn't home even though they left the party together. He was kind of her to ask her to enter the car but immediately he dropped her off the zoomed off without saying a thing.How was she supposed to explain to him when he wasn't even giving her a chance to do that?“It is all that prick's fault, how could he have hugged me? That demon from hell should be castrated!" Hadley cursed but she stopped herself seeing that she was yelling at that quiet night.“I just

    The whole ballroom fell into silence, and Nicholas's gesture raised an eyebrow to everyone in the room, and they were all curious as to what Hadley was going to do. “What are you doing, Mr. Sanders?” Hadley asked through gritted teeth warning the man to behave herself, and she wondered why Maurice was silent on the matter.He wasn't that quiet, so she understood what was going on. Maybe she should be worried after all.“I am asking you to dance, Mrs. Elliot? Did you find it so wrong?” he asked, and she hissed hearing his words.She was sure that he was trying to get Maurice to lose his temper in front of those people, and when Hadley started wanting to lash out at the man, Maurice interrupted her.“You are really funny, Mr. Sanders I almost mistaken you for a comedian instead of a businessman. How could you ask my wife to accompany you?” Maurice asked, and his chilly voice resonated through the room, and the bustling atmosphere dampened.Maurice has that effect, his voice alone was e

    Days passed, and Maurice was finally discharged from the hospital but as time passed Hadley kept getting withdrawn because of her father's pressure on her.He kept pressuring her about her sister's health, and making different threats about her so that Hadley couldn't succumb to his threats. She hasn't come up with a plan, and she couldn't inform Maurice who just woke up to help her out.“What are you thinking about?” Maurice asked, and Hadley jolted in fear hearing his words because she didn't know that the man was behind her.“When did you get here?” she asked, trying to get the man's hand off her but the man wasn't letting her go.He could sense that she hadn't herself the past few days, and it might be that his secret fears were finally surfacing.Maybe she wanted to leave him, Maurice thought, but he was planning to hold onto her no matter what.“Did you just get out of the shower?
