Vera Anderson's POV

I woke up when I felt was already starving. Royce was still sleeping while cuddling me in his arms. I slightly raised my head to look at the face of this handsome man who is now my boyfriend and I couldn't help but fall in love with him over and over again. He was still sleeping and I guessed he was really tired. I took a quick glance at my watch and it was already eight in the evening.

"Babe, it's time for us to go home", I whispered in his ears. Royce just moved a little but his eyes were still closed. He hugged me even more tightly and planted a kiss on my lips.

"Let's spend the whole night here, babe", he answered with a raspy voice.

"What??? Seriously babe? But no! We need to go home because we still have our work tomorrow. Besides, my brother will be worried of me if I can't go home", I gruffed.

Royce gradually opened his eyes and looked at me. After a while, he gave me a flirty smile and rolled over on top of me. I know he wanted to do something more becaus

    Royce Miller's POVI couldn't help but smile upon seeing Vera's facial expression when she told me she is alright. I know she was just afraid, I would really kiss her if she would continue to feel bad about Margaret. I realized how jealous type of girlfriend she is. The same goes for me and that's what I exactly felt when Dave and Mr. Wilson were showing interest in her. But I guess, being jealous is a normal feeling when you love someone right?Now that Vera knows the real me, I am more confident to do my role as the CEO of META. Although, it's just only for the meantime, but at least I've experienced how to be responsible at work. Besides, I need to stay here to find out the truth about my brother's accident and those who were responsible for the two incidents that happened last time.

    Vera Anderson's POV"Babe, are you okay?", I asked Royce when we're inside the car. As usual, he wanted to drive me home and just called his father's bodyguard, Arthur, and asked him to bring over my car at home.Royce was just silent while settling on the steering wheel, and I know he was in deep thought about what happened in META earlier. I understand how hard it is on his part, to take all the responsibilities in the company especially when he found out about those financial errors made by the accounting department. "Babe?", I spoke again."Yes babe, sorry. I'm out of my mind this time. I don't know what I'm going to do. I don't want my parents to be disappointed in me. But what if they will get to know about that financial inaccuracy and discrepancies?", Royce responded and after a while took a long deep sigh."Don't think it too much babe okay? I know it will be fixed soon and the accounting personnel would do their best to correct the errors", I replied, trying to cheer him up

    Royce Miller's POVI was supposed to be flying on our private plane, but unfortunately, it wasn't available because it had not yet returned from Canada after my parents' flight the other day, so I had to take an airline at eight in the morning. Arthur drove me to the airport an hour before my flight and he left right away after I entered the airline's check-in area. While waiting for the time, I took my cellphone from my pocket and started calling Vera. I'm sure she is already in META now because she usually comes early at work."Good morning babe, how are you? Are you okay?", I spoke with much concern in my voice."Yes babe, I'm fine. How about you? What time is your flight?", she asked."At eight. Uhm, by the way, please behave while I'm away okay?", I jested. Then I heard Vera's smirking voice."Uhuh...So what do you mean Mr. CEO?", she sounded like she was about to be pissed off. I chuckled because I could imagine what does she look like when she's getting annoyed."I should be t

    Vera Anderson's POV It was past five o'clock in the afternoon when I went out of the office. I guessed I was the only one left on the fifth floor so I hastened my steps towards the elevator. I remembered to check on my phone if I have text messages or calls from Royce, so I groped it inside my bag, only to find out that it was not there. I think I just left it on my desk so I need to go back my way to get it. I was about to get inside the office when I saw someone. It was Vanessa again who explicitly entered the office this morning. I know she did not notice my presence since she was busy looking for something on Royce's table. And if I'm not mistaken it was the pen voice recording she placed next to the CEO's name desk. When the woman heard the sound of the doorlock, she immediately turned around and her eyes were dilated in a state of shock as soon as she saw me. "Uhm, excuse me, Miss Vanessa, what are you doing here?", I asked in a calm voice. "This is the CEO's office and ente

I only slept for three hours because I was not feeling comfortable seeing my brother in his situation. I quickly looked at my watch and it's already six in the morning. I looked around the room until my eyes landed on Reid's hospital bed. I really can't help but feel so sorry for my brother. I don't know long how he will stay in that condition or if there's still a chance he would regain his consciousness. I stood up and walked into him."Bro, please wake up. You are needed in META. You know I couldn't be like you for a long time. ", I whispered.Then after some time, the door opened. Dad and mom came in and approached me. "Son, are you okay?", dad asked, tapping my shoulder."We will go back to LA now son, I know you have a lot of things to do in META.

If you really want me that bad then see me tonight", she softly chuckled and winked at me."Hmm. Okay, fine. So I'm giving you time to go to your desk as quickly as you can before I would be going totally crazy. Now!", I said, and that's more like an order. I couldn't help but smile, upon seeing how she rushed her heels away from me.I took a deep breath while going to my table. I glanced at Vera and our eyes met but immediately averted her gaze.

    Vera's POVOne week had passed after my last conversation with Royce yet the sting of our farewell was still present. I thought it would be easy for me but with each passing day, I felt an inexplicable sadness and emptiness deep within. I was supposed to be happy with my decision but it did not turn out as I expected to happen. Until I found myself aimlessly scrolling through my phone, ending up in the recycle bin. The photos of Royce and me, which I had previously removed, were still there.

"Hi babe!", Vince greeted Alexa with a kiss, and then he turned to me. "Hi Vera", he said and hugged me. "Hello, Vince. It's good to see you here! Uhm, by the way, this is my Mom. I mean, my biological mother and my younger sister", I said. "Hmm. Yes. Alexa told me about it", Vince responded and greeted Mom. "Hi, Aunt Olivia. Hello, little girl!", he messed up my little sister's long hair. She was a shy-type girl but according to my mother, she was not like this before when Andrea was still alive. She was attached to my twin sister so until now, she still couldn't move on from what happened. "Uhm, Vince let me introduce to you my friend Dave." "Dave, this is Vince, Alexa's boyfriend."

    Vera's POV It was my alarm clock that woke me up from sleep. Despite the early hour, I had to get up due to Margaret's impending trial, a day I had been eagerly anticipating. I was hopeful for a just verdict that would make Margaret accountable for her actions. After this, I would be staying in Canada for good. This had been my plan before but it did not realize because I still wanted Margaret to pay for Identity Theft and most importantly, for killing my sister. My mother and I had already concurred on this. I would be living with her and my younger sister to make up those times we were not together. And--- Dave unexpectedly crossed my mind. I pondered over the possibility of accepting his marriage proposal. After all, he was a decent man, and eventually, I would learn to love him. But what if I fail?

"Bro, are you okay?", I asked and tapped his shoulder, Reid just let out a heavy sigh, instead of answering my question. "Are we going home now bro? I think you need to take some rest", I said as I started the engine. "Nope, bro. Let's drop by at the police station. I wanted to see that traitor friend of mine!", Reid gritted his teeth as he emphasized the word 'traitor'. I did as what I was told to do but I did not bother to talk to him while we were on our way. I knew he was not okay. The corners of his mouth turned down in a sad frown while his brows furrowed. His complexion paled as if the blood had drained from his face. His gaze was a mixture of pain and anger for being betrayed by his best friend. A few moments later, we arrived at the police station. Reid got out of the car first so I hurried to get out as well. We entered at the entrance door and the first thing that caught ou

    Royce's POV Finally, the stars were aligned with us. With the help of our competent detectives, the police were able to catch the other kidnappers involved in Reid's kidnapping incident. We also found out that one of them was the driver who bumped into Dad's car, so, that person was indicted in a murder case. The police asked him the reason for killing my father but he said he was just following an order from his 'boss'—something that was baffling in my mind. Moreover, Nicholas Monet, also known as 'Simon Morris' was caught by the authorities at the LA Cruise Terminal when he was about to board a cruise ship. This time, I would make sure that this fucking asshole would be put behind bars and pay for all the crimes he committed. However, the person who ordered him to illicitly withdraw funds from our account was not yet identified. Until now, I still couldn't figure out who was behind it. On the other hand, Uncle Sam and Charles were already convicted of embezzlement and attempted

She quickly ran towards us and opened her arms. "Reid! Oh! God Thank you so much!", mom exclaimed and hugged us while tears of joy rolled down her cheeks. "Are you okay son? Did they not hurt you?" "I'm fine, mom", Reid responded softly. "Royce! Thank you for fulfilling your promise to bring your brother back home. I'm glad you are both safe!", she said as she wiped her tears away. Her face lit up with a bright smile whispering words of love and joy as she embraced us warmly. But despite her smile, restlessness was evident in her eyes, indicating the need for her to get some rest. So Reid and I accompanied her to her room and waited until she had drifted off to sleep. Together we left mom's room, moving quietly so as not to disturb her. "Bro, I think you need to take

Everything was set ready, but still waiting for the kidnappers' call to provide the precise location of our meetup. They insisted that I would come alone and I had to follow them for my brother's safety. However, the police had organized a backup team that would support me in carrying out my plan. Suddenly our residence telephone rang. I hurriedly picked it up for I thought it was coming from the kidnappers. "Good morning sir. This is from Ally Bank.
