The family sat around the table enjoying the delicious meal Chef Rosita prepared, no one was saying anything to the other. Chairman Winslow had strict dining rules which include not talking when eating, he believed that a portion of food was a scary thing which shouldn't be insulted or tampered with, but in most cases, the rule was broken but no one not even Georgina had the right to break the rules aside from him.

"I must say, Rosita, you did quite an outstanding job today, I have never enjoyed your meal more than I'm doing today," Chairman Winslow said breaking the long dead silence. Chef Rosita blushed, "Thank you, sir," she began, she always enjoys it when her food was complimented, she had given up a job offer to work at the white house a few years back, just to work for the late chairwoman, happened to be the chairman's wife, she treated her fairly like a daughter and she couldn't ask for more. "I wanted to leave a good impression on the vice president, it's her first time eat

    Monday Morning was just like every other morning, waking up all alone in her room like a single woman instead of waking up in a romantic cuddle with her husband. Lindsey sighed, as much as she try to pretend not to care about her loveless marriage with Keith, it still bothered her. It wasn't the kind of marriage she had planned for herself. She had visioned a romantic fun marriage even if it wasn't rich, all she needed was love. Something she had lacked all through her childhood, even if Angela claims to love her but she wasn't showing it in her actions. A few hours later, Lindsey was dressed in a fashion designer dress, designer shoes and a bag to match. She walked downstairs only to meet Ashley and Joyce seated on the couch waiting for her. Immediately they saw her, they stood up and bowed down greetings her. "Good Morning ma'am," They greeted in unison. "Good Morning, hope there isn't any problem?" Lindsey asked wondering why they came to see her that early. "It's your first day

    "That was one big warming introduction," Joyce complimented her as they walked back to the office. Lindsey just flashed her a smile without giving her any reply. When Lilian spoke to her disrespectfully, she had wanted to let go of it but then she remembered Georgina's advice. She needed to show them she was the boss of the company so no one would think of disrespecting her later in the future. They walked into the gigantic office and Lindsey couldn't help but wow at the interior design of the office, a big picture frame of her was hanging behind her desk and then her name was inscribed on a table tablet. "I have never seen an office this big," Lindsey said as she sat down. "I know right, the chairwoman figure out it might be your taste so she made sure to make you comfortable," Joyce said. Lindsey nodded her head and smiled. "So, what do you want to do first?" Joyce asked going through her daily schedule. "Hmm, Call in the team leaders and you focus on the things I asked for, I ne

    The car stopped in front of a fancy restaurant, Lindsey took in a deep breath before she alighted from the car. The restaurant waitress who seemed to have recognized them almost immediately ushered them in and walked her to where the Chairman was. It was a private room and aside from Chairman Winslow and a young man sitting beside him, there was no one else there. "How are you doing grandfather?" Lindsey greeted announcing her presence. Chairman Winslow looked up at her and a big smile appeared on his face. He dotted Lindsey more than his other granddaughters-in-law. The first day he saw her at the engagement party, he immediately loved her, he didn't know the reason but he admired her humility, humbleness and her smile was enough to make anyone love her. He was grateful that his son found an exceptional wife outside the numerous elite families in the city and there was nothing that could change the fact that Lindsey was the best granddaughter-in-law. "You are here, come seat, I alr

    Vanessa tried eavesdropping from Lindsey's office door but Lindsey's secretary, Kimberly kept glancing at her and she knew better than to keep standing there. She adjusted her clothes and walked back to her office hoping to get the information she needed one way or the other. Immediately she entered her office, she found Cynthia's text on her phone. "How did it go?, I'm sure she bought it" Vanessa read the text within herself before sending her own reply letting out the part about Miguel and Lindsey's suspicious relationship, she knew Cynthia was a blabbermouth and a wild beast and she wouldn't want unverified news to be flying around the internet. She needed to get her facts right before anything and she would hold unto the information and use it as her own weapon. "So, what business are you talking about," Lindsey asked adjusting on her seat. "Flyheart conglomerate is introducing a new business in town and we want Dior Events to be our major partners," Miguel said and Lindsey nodd

    Keith's warning kept ringing in Lindsey's ear as she made her way downstairs, she was now dressed putting on her classic working wear. She tried everything she could to forget about his words but she couldn't, Ashley had assured her it was a fair and profitable deal and didn't pose any risk but her main concern was Keith. Even though she was forging strength and had Georgina and Chairman Winslow on her side but the truth remains that Keith was family to them and she wasn't so they would always take his side regardless. "Ma'am...." Joyce called for the umpteenth time snapping Lindsey out of her thought. "Yes, did you say something?" Lindsey asked. Joyce looked at her for a while and smiled at her. "Is anything the matter?" Joyce asked. Lindsey glanced at her wondering if it was okay to tell her. "Do you think it's a bad idea if I accept Miguel's offer?" Lindsey asked. "Well, it's a good idea and it's going to help you in so many ways but considering his relationship with your husband

    "You shouldn't worry yourself about Leen," Georgina snapped at her even before she could complete her statement. "I know but I haven't heard from or seen her in a while and I'm getting worried, Leen isn't the type that doesn't return my calls and when I visited her home....""She wasn't there," Georgina paused looking at Lindsey. "I heard from the police that she relocated and she refuse to disclose the location to us, I didn't think much about it because I felt she's an adult and I don't need to control his life for her," Georgina said. "Lindsey darling, you have a lot going on right now and you don't need to add Leen to the list of your problems, I think you should concentrate, put in your best in this competition and stand your ground first and Don't forget to watch your back, at this point of your life honey, you have a lot of frenemies and it would take a while to discover them so I advise you don't let your guard down and always watch your back to avoid the worst from hitting yo

    "You finally agreed to sign the business contract," Miguel said smiling at Lindsey, they were in a Chinese restaurant even though Lindsey had specifically asked they sign the deal either at her company or his but Miguel refuse. "Why it has just been two days," Lindsey said wondering why he said that as if he never thought she would sign the deal. "Well your husband is full of events and you aren't any different, why do you think I came myself to pitch the idea instead of sending my secretary," Miguel said and Lindsey smiled. "You seem to know Keith very well yet you both don't get along, why are you going to tell me what happened between the both of you?" Lindsey asked. Miguel stared at her for a while before he responded "Maybe you should try asking Keith, it's not my story to tell besides you are his wife," Miguel smiled and Lindsey nodded her head in agreement. The chef approached to greet them and also to take their order, Miguel and Lindsey were both respected persons in the cit

    Throughout the ride to Dior, Georgina kept stealing glances at Lindsey as her statement echoed in her head. She tried shaking it off but she just couldn't help but think about it.She knew Harry and Francis might not like Keith because he was named the third generation heir even though he was the last son but Georgina never thought the hatred would be so visible for another to see.She couldn't even blame Lindsey for speaking rudely to her, she was trying to look after her unborn baby, that's what every responsible mother would do.Minutes later, they arrived at Dior and they both alighted from the car and walked in. Walking into Dior, Georgina was stunned, she has never been to Dior so she didn't know what it looked like. Everywhere was coordinated and the staff bowed as they walked passed them."Good Morning ma'am," Ashley greeted bowing respectfully at them.

    Lindsey woke up the next day after a long night with Keith, they had decided to make love the previous night when they got back because the sooner Lindsey gets pregnant, the sooner the rumours about her dues off.Lindsey looked beside her hoping to see Keith beside her but he wasn't there, she frowned thinking about the last time she had woken up without seeing Keith there, he ended up having a terrible and scandalous day.She reached for her nightwear and wore it before sliding into her flip-flop. She made her way downstairs hoping to see Keith there since it was still early and Keith didn't leave any note to show that he wasn't home.On reaching downstairs, Lindsey heard the doorbell which Keith answered immediately. It wasn't long before the visitor spoke and Lindsey quickly recognized the voice to belong to Georgina."What's she doing here this early, I just hope nothing is wrong," Lindsey said as she made to walk into the sitt

    Lindsey turned towards the direction of the voice hoping it was who she thought it was and lo and behold, Leen was standing right in front of her with a smile plastered on her face."Leen?" Lindsey called as tears dropped from her eyes. "Yeah girlfriend, it's me," Leen smiled."God Leen," Lindsey said and quickly hugged her. Leen smiled hugging her back, she missed Lindsey but she knew it wasn't as much as Lindsey missed her. At least she got the opportunity to see Lindsey's picture on the internet but she just zoned out without a word to her or anyone."It's really you Leen, I have missed," Lindsey cried hugging her even tighter. Keith stood in a corner staring at them with a smile plastered on his face. Looking at Lindsey and Leen reconnect after so many months, it made her remember his friendship with Miguel. The truth was that he didn't even know what exactly went wrong, they just fell apart and never spoke to each other ever again. It's be

    Silence was what followed next after Chairman Winslow made his statement. Lindsey glanced at Georgina before shifting her gaze to Keith only to meet his eyes fixed on her. They both maintained eye contact for a while as if trying to ask each other if they were comfortable with the whole suggestion."Don't just sit there and stare at each other, say something," Chairman Winslow said breaking off the eye contact. Lindsey shifted her gaze to him, she wasn't sure if she was ready to become a mother just yet, she loved the idea of getting pregnant and giving birth but those were just the tip of the iceberg compared to the kind of responsibility she had to face as a mother."We will do it," Keith said making Lindsey turn sharply at him. She wasn't sure why Keith changed his mind so suddenly, the last time she checked, he didn't want to have anything to do with him."Okay, Lindsey do you agree?" Chairman Winslow asked looking at her. He was trying to

    Audrey burst into laughter immediately after Sharon sighed out of the talk show. "What's this?" Audrey asked looking at her laptop. "Did I just watch a soap opera or something?" She asked again. The ending wasn't just what she expected. She wasn't sure what she was expecting but she knew for sure that the way the talk show had ended wasn't just the ending she was expecting."Do you think this is the time to shine your teeth like a fool," Audrey turned towards the door and saw her mother Carolyn. She didn't need to ask her if she was okay since her facial expression and the tone of her voice already answered that."Pack your back, we are going back to New York," Audrey raised a brow at her wondering where that was coming all of a sudden."Mum, I thought you said you were planning something and that I don't have to lift a finger?" Audrey asked just to be sure she remembered correctly what Carolyn had said."Do you think I don't know

    Lindsey felt a cold chill run down her spine, she never had any abortion like Tamarah had accused her but she knew where that story was leading, her past was going to be brought to the limelight and it wasn't going to be good for her."Why are you suddenly quiet Lindsey? Before you think of suing Nancy, why don't you first confirm if you are truly a woman?" Tamarah spat angrily."Wait, we are getting lost here, what abortion are you talking about?" Jenna asked. Sharon didn't bother to ask anything since she already heard the story from Nancy, she just relaxed in her seat watching to know how the drama unfolds."Lindsey, Did you have an abortion for your husband because you weren't ready to be a mother?" Jenna asked again making Tamarah let out a soft mockery laugh."For her husband, Jenna trust me, it would have been a lot better if Keith was the one responsible for the pregnancy," Tamarah began making everyone interested in what s

    "Oh my God, this is going to be more fun than I thought it would be," Audrey said as she typed in the comment. She was watching the talk show from her laptop and so far she was enjoying the way Lindsey's sister was speaking ill of her but never did she imagine that Lindsey would come to the show."Did Georgina ask her to come?" Audrey thought munching on her popcorn, she had anticipated that the interview would be fun so she bought the popcorn."Hell no, Georgina can't do that, she has a reputation for handling issues herself and she won't be stupid enough to leave a pressuring issue like this to Lindsey to settle," Audrey shook her head negatively."Well, whichever one it is, as long as she ends up making a fool of herself, I don't really care," Audrey scoffed looking at her laptop. There were two top reporters on the talk show and the outcome of the show would trend for days especially if Lindsey fails to prove the controversial rumour wrong.

    Lindsey woke up the next morning feeling light-headed, she looked around the room and frowned wondering how she got there. The last thing she remembered was drinking with Miguel.She moaned feeling a sharp pain, "Gosh Lindsey, why did you drink too much?" Lindsey asked. She turned looking for her phone, seconds later, she found it and made to reach for it but then she saw a note which was very obvious that Miguel had dropped it.Lindsey smiles reading the text over and over again, "Isn't Miguel way better than Keith, gosh it would have been perfect if the Flyheart family had brought in the proposal first," Her subconscious said making Lindsey smile harder but soon enough she snapped herself out of it, reminding herself that she was still married and can't afford another scandal.She dropped the note and picked up her phone. "God dammit," Lindsey whined, it was already 8:30 am and her phone was still in flight mode. She had missed Sharon's text

    Joyce turned sharply at Lindsey, she didn't need to be told who Lindsey had called. "I'm not sure the chairwoman would be happy about this," Joyce said."No one asked you, I suggest you talk only when you are talked to or asked to talk," Lindsey fired turning fiercely at her.Joyce quickly bowed her head apologetically, she knew Lindsey was angry and was transferring aggression at her. "I'm sorry ma'am," Joyce said.Lindsey sneered reaching for her phone, she had ended the call on Sharon immediately she said why she called so she thought Sharon was the one calling her back but looking at the caller ID, she rolled her eyes answering the call."I'm guessing you must have seen the tabloid?" Lindsey said."Hmm, don't think too much about it," Keith said staring into his iPad. He had seen it when he called Lindsey that morning but since Lindsey didn't mention anything about it, he too decided not to say anything about
