To my chagrin, my door was opened, and Jason walked in without even being invited. "I'm sorry I'm late, I had problems with traffic. I even had to come here by helicopter," he said quite excitedly, and I frowned. "I was just missing this one," I muttered to myself, quite disgusted. "What? Do you
Laura I forced myself to laugh mockingly at his words. "So you missed me when I was your human alarm, promptly waking you up every day at the same time for you to go to work? Did you miss how I made myself available to keep you tidy? Did you miss me in the kitchen? Or when I prepared your bath when
LauraI saw Jason finally leave my room, and as soon as he closed the door, I covered my mouth with my hands to stifle the big laugh I let out. I got up and went to my living room window and looked at the powerful view of Manhattan outside. Furthermore, I had a smile of satisfaction on my face, it w
I couldn't deny that Jason Davies deserved a proper punishment, but it was also painful to see him lose everything to that woman. "He was too stupid not to be smart," I condemned. "Yeah, it was like Kendall put a spell on him. What a hell of a situation.""Spell or not, he remains the one to blame
Jason Dating? What? What does it mean? "Are you dating? Who are you dating?" I asked, feeling my mouth suddenly go dry. "I'm dating Richard," she replied, her big brown eyes still wide as if she were afraid of something. Her small, upturned nose was red at the tip, as were her cheeks. Laura Tho
Laura "What? What are you talking about? Did Jason find out about my daughter?" I was practically screaming in amazement when, on a group call with Ava and Terence, they told me about Jason's finding out. "If it's anything to go by, Jason thinks your daughter is a boy and not a girl," said Ava, t
"That Richard is a damn player," Terence commented recently. "Don't talk like that, Richard is a good guy," I said, defending Richard. "Look, we're going to take you off the call. You are drooling Jason egg," Ava said to Terence, then removed him from the call. She and I burst out laughing. Poor
Laura Strangely enough, Jason hadn't shown up again for a whole week, so I thought he had given up on me because I told him I was dating Richard. Maybe he decided to take some time to think about what he was doing. I was hoping he would stop bothering me and let me work in peace, but I got the answ
Max POV “You want me to talk to my husband to help Gideon; is that what I heard?” Laura was asking me that with a look of shock on her face. “That's right, you heard very well,” I replied. “I want you to talk to your husband to help my brother.” Laura Williams Davies wanted to roll her eyes rig
Max POV“Could you give me a minute, please?” I asked as I approached Albert Williams. He was talking to Mel, his wife, and now that I had approached them, they had both turned to look at me.“Is it urgent?” Mel asked me, but it wasn't like I addressed her.“It has its urgency, I admit,” I replied h
Max I had left Lindsay alone with her new boyfriend in order to give them both privacy, especially because Matt Weiss might feel a little intimidated if I was around since he knew I was Lindsay's ex-husband's brother. I was going to find some fun at that party when I felt my shoulders being grabbed
Laura “I can really see your own secretary hitting on your husband and you can’t? Good God, you never change, don’t you, Laura?” Ava was rolling her eyes as she said that to me. I was really in shock as I saw that scene unfolding in front of me and at that moment I couldn't hold back, I immediate
Lindsay “Oh my Goodness, your brother doesn't stop staring at me like that. Is it because of my dress?” I asked, running my hand over my short, skin-tight dress that I had dared to wear for today. Why not, right? Max Bathory chuckled mischievously. “Maybe Gid is missing your feminine attributes, i
Laura I was in a corner of Albert's party with a glass of sparkling wine in my hand, sitting on one of the corners sofas in the company of Ava while she was telling me some gossip, and I was wandering around a little distracted, my gaze in the direction of Jason, who was chatting with some of his f
Zoey The party was in full swing. I didn't know what impressed me more: the undeniable luxury of the decoration or the people walking around, all of them looking like they came out of a movie. The atmosphere was vibrant, but in an elegant way—a play of soft lights and restrained laughter. The dres
Lindsay Melanie sent me the invitation, but I was so hesitant to confirm my presence at that party because, of course, it was her husband's party, who was Max's best friend, my ex-husband's brother, so I knew Gideon would be there. Zoey didn't need convincing; as soon as she received the invitatio
Zoey It was a cold night, but somehow, the anticipation I felt made the environment feel welcoming. Laura, always so generous and friendly, invited me to her brother Albert's birthday party. He was in his 30s, and from what I knew, he was always surrounded by a class of people I only saw in movies
