Samantha woke up very early. She felt Alexander's arms around her and slowly tried to take his hands off her when he held on to her waist tighter. "Are you pretending to be asleep?" Samantha asked and Alexander opened his eyes."I'm not pretending. Why are you trying to sneak out?" Alexander asked. "Maybe because I have stuffs to do, and I didn't want to deal with you this morning." "Are you sober now?" Alexander asked."Very." Samantha replied."Morning by the way." Samantha said. "Morning, don't forget to come down for breakfast." Alexander reminded. "I won't." Samantha said heading to her room. She wanted to spend a lot of time with Emma today.She hopes Emma's bone marrow transplant would be done soon.After getting dressed Samantha walked down the stairs and found Alexander having coffee. Well it was still early. "Where are you going?" Alexander asked. "To see Emma." Samantha replied. She sat with him to have breakfast. "Good morning Miss Pierce." Gianna greeted. "Mor
Lucian was waiting at the front door for the ambulance to arrive. He immediately took Samantha to the emergency ward.Lucian immediately gave her something to calm her allergy down but her breathing was still rough. The oxygen finally helped her slow her breathing and she finally slept peacefully. Lucian sighed as he saw she was going to be okay. He didn't know why he was worried, he hasn't known Samantha for a long but he guess he kinda liked the sisters. After half an Alexander rushed to the hospital."How is she?" "Where's your baseball cap?" Lucian asked. "Let's not worry about that right now? How is she? What's wrong with her?" Alexander asked. "She's fine for now." Lucian replied. "For now?" Alexander asked glaring at Lucian. It was his job to make patients feel alright. "Come to my office with me. I moved her to a VIP ward so you can see her after our little chat." Lucian said going into his office."What is it?" Alexander asked. "Alexander she was poisoned with som
Alexander immediately grabbed his baseball cap and wore it. Penelope didn't want to offend someone from a wealthy family so she tried avoiding people until she accidentally bumped into Alexander who was walking in a hurry. She knew how overbearing the rich could be and once you get into their black book you're in trouble. "It's fine." Alexander said to Penelope who apologized. And Penelope peered deeper through his baseball cap. "Mr McCallion?" She asked. Alexander cursed under his breath and wondered why he didn't just walk past her immediately. He was a popular figure and a lot of people knew him. Especially those who were indebted to him.He ignored her and walked away like he didn't hear her. Penelope thought she just imagined so she left the hospital. She went to visit Emma in case Samantha was with her but she wasn't. She only asked Emma if she's heard from Samantha and Emma said she texted this morning which got Penelope confused. Why didn't Samantha text her then?Penel
Mildred Moon was Lucian's little sister. She was a spoilt child unlike Lucian whom his mother was so proud of and loved to a fault. Lucian's father believed since Mildred was a girl she should be allowed to do whatever she wanted but now she was fifteen and out of control.She only listens to Lucian cause he could be temperamental but also her favorite person in the world. Lucian views Mildred as a mistake, a child that shouldn't have existed cause she was different from the rest of the family. But he loved her anyway and took care of her especially when she wasn't a pain. "Brother." Mildred called out with a bright smile. Lucian couldn't believe his parents lied to him. They told him his sister was on the plane a few hours ago and she was on her way from Paris but how the hell did she appear in front of him in less than an hour. "Hey baby." Lucian said hugging her. He didn't want to act displeased his parents lied and not her."I miss you so much brother." Mildred said. "I miss
Samantha sweet talked Emma into sleeping and left in a hurry. She got into the elevator in a haste and pressed the last floor.Alexander kept glancing at his watch. There was only two minutes left and he knew Samantha wouldn't make it but a phone call distracted him. "Jordan what is it?" Alexander asked. "Boss, I got information concerning Miss Pierce's parents." Jordan reported. Alexander saw Samantha running from a far and chuckled. She made it. Alexander decided to listen to Jordan first and then returned to Samantha who was obviously looking for him. He didn't want her to hear what Jordan was saying until he confirmed there was enough proof and evidence. "Thank you Jordan." Alexander said disconnecting the call.He returned back to the car to meet Samantha. "You're late." Samantha glared at him and Alexander ruffled her hair playfully. It would seem whatever she had in mind about her parent's death was true. "Hey." Samantha glared and Alexander chuckled. He wondered why
Well she would have to see Penelope some other time.She needed to know the truth behind her parent's death. "So what is it going to be?" Alexander asked waiting for her reply. "Where are we going?" Samantha asked. "Get dressed in something nice. We're going to my office." Alexander said."What?" "You heard me get dressed." Alexander ordered and Samantha sighed. "Is this okay?" Samantha asked. "Let's go." Alexander said nonchalantly and Samantha followed him. She wondered why he was being grumpy today.The guards opened the door for the duo and Samantha got in. "Good morning boss." Jordan greeted. "Morning Jordan." "Morning Miss Pierce." Jordan greeted. "Morning." Samantha nodded. They arrived at one of Alexander's numerous company buildings and Samantha followed the duo quietly. Alexander got into his private elevator with Samantha and Jordan. "Sir you have an unexpected visitor." Jordan said getting a call from Alexander's secretary. The elevator opened and they got o
Samantha kept observing her speechless friend she was overly quiet so she snapped her fingers in front of her."Hello? Back to earth." "You mean you're living with Alexander McCallion right now?" Penelope asked still in shock. "Yes." Samantha answered. "God that's weird." Penelope said. "I know." "I mean who knew he had that side." Penelope uttered. "What side?" Samantha asked. "I mean he is a philanderer." Penelope said and Samantha chuckled."He is the lady's man so there's nothing to be surprised about." Samantha said. The duo kept talking until they were interrupted by someone. "Samantha." "Willow, hey." Samantha forced a smile."Hi Penelope long time no see." Willow smiled. "Hey, it's good to see you." Penelope smiled. "Goodness Samantha you left me worried you know." Willow said. "I'm fine, thanks for your concern." Samantha said. Only a few knew about her allergy and that includes her best friend. Willow only found out about it during the second attack. But what
Samantha answered the phone regardless. "Yes?" Samantha's rude voice asked. "Manners dear." "Oh I'm sorry, I'm just not in the mood for being nice. What do you want aunt Valerie?" Samantha asked and Alexander raised a brow. He did wonder who Samantha was talking to rudely but he didn't expect it would be Valerie. "What's your relationship with Alexander McCallion?" Valerie asked. "Rumors do travel fast I guess, but my relationship with him is non of your business." Samantha retorted. "How dare you go around whoring yourself?" Valerie asked. "What does it matter to you if I go around whoring? It's my life." Samantha said."Really? Well you're still using the family's last name do you think I'll let you soil it?" Valerie asked. "And your relationship with Desmond? Isn't that worse than whoring?" Samantha retorted. Valerie had no right to judge her, of everyone in the world she was the least of persons she would want to judge her. "How dare you speak to me in that way Samantha
"Sophie Weston, have you come here freely and without reservation to give yourself to him in marriage?" The priest asked Samantha. "Yes." Samantha replied. "Alexander McCallion, have you come here freely and without reservation to give yourself to her in marriage?" "Yes." Alexander replied. "Will you honour him as your husband for the rest of your life?" "I will." Samantha answered. "Will you honour her as your wife, for the rest of your life?" "I will." Alexander replied. "Will you accept children lovingly from God and bring them up according to the law of Christ?" The priest asked. "Yes." The duo replied. "It's time to exchange the vows." Rita and Christopher gave Alexander, and Samantha the rings and the duo began to recite the vows."I Sophie Weston take you, Alexander McCallion to be my husband. I promise to be true to you in good times and in bad times, in sickness and in health. I will love and honour you till death do us part." Samantha said sliding the ring into his
Alexander walked into the house and Samantha smiled at him. She immediately got on her feet and went to hug him. "Hey beautiful." Alexander said pecking her cheeks. "Hey.""I came to give you this." Alexander said. "What's this?" Samantha asked taking the file from him. "Actually I would have given this to you a year back but... Well now that I remembered I just thought to give it to you." Alexander said and Samantha went through the papers."Wait... These are the documents of our house." Samantha said, "Yeah, I'm giving your foster parents home back to you. I purchased it from the bank you see. I just forgot to give it back.""Emma would be so happy, thank you." Samantha said hugging him. "You're welcome, my love. I have to go." Alexander said. "Hey, you're not leaving. Help me make a pick between this two colors." Samantha said. "Why don't you just pick anyone?" Alexander asked. "I want you to pick.""The purple one." Alexander said. "See that wasn't so bad, and that was m
"I probably would have preferred Kate to her.""This is about something else isn't it?" Lionel asked."This is about something else isn't it?" Lionel asked again. He knew his wife a lot. "I don't want to talk about it." She said. They continued the dinner in silence till it was over. "Thank you for having me Mr and Mrs Moon." Penelope said. "Of course, and thank you for coming." Lionel said. "Tell me something did you get employed at the hospital because you got yourself into my son's bed?" Stella asked. "Mom! That's enough." Lucian said. "I'm just curious.""Mom, you're being mean." Mildred said. "Why are you all taking her side?" Stella asked. "Because she did nothing wrong, I know why you don't really like her." Lucian said. "Because your ex girlfriend is better." She said. "I'd rather die single than go back to Kate. I love Penelope and nothing you do will change that." Lucian said."Penelope let's go, I guess mom has too much alcohol so she isn't thinking straight." Lu
"I'm not saying you are. I'm just saying...""That's what you're trying to imply." Sebastian frowned. "Keep your money Sebastian, I know you're trying to impress your girlfriend but don't." Mr Grayson said. "So, Emma tell me how you two got into a relationship." Mrs Grayson asked. "Oh, it's kind of embarrassing." Emma said. "How so dear?" She asked. "Sebastian was a weird guy. I don't know the first time he walked into class I have to admit I hated him. He might have good looks but his manners were poor." Emma said. "You're right about that." Mr Grayson said and Sebastian glared at him. "We bumped into each other on the streets and... He asked if I'd love to go on a walk again with him since we live close to each other.""We've became close since then after I found out he wasn't a total idiot." Emma said. "I like you Emma, you're very outspoken." Mr Grayson said. "Thank you sir."Lucian arrived home only to hear voices he was surprised to see his parents and Mildred laughing.
"Samantha a lot had happened since... I thought I lost you." Emma said. "I know, it wouldn't have been easy thinking you lost me too." Samantha said. "It wasn't, losing dad, mom, aunt, you. I felt so empty. But Sebastian, Mildred, Carlos, Scarlett and Linda kinda made it a bit bearable." Emma said. "I'm glad they were there for you, come park your things." Samantha said and Emma nodded. "Guys thank you all for coming. Thank you all for supporting me." Samantha said. "Of course Samantha, you're a part of the group." Ken said. "But more than that. You guys helped me regardless of the fact that I pretended not to know you guys." Samantha said. "Samantha you chose to trust us, we owe you our support. You've been through a lot with us, you almost got killed I wouldn't blame you if you choose not to come to us for help." Lucian said."Still thank you all I wouldn't have been able to pull that off without your help.""We're glad we could help." They said. "Oh Joelle sorry I sent a mo
When Samantha heard this she nearly lost her footing. "Well get dressed first." Raphael said."Penelope you have to get the hell out of there." Samantha said. "There's still a few percent to go." Penelope said. "Ditch it they would kill you." Samantha said. "It's done.""Get out now." Samantha said and Penelope arranged her dress before walking out of the room. Samantha knew that the father and son pair would surely see Penelope coming from the study so she decided to stage a little drama. "Play along." Samantha said. "I don't want you calling me Samantha how many times do I have to tell you and your friends that I want nothing to do with any of you?" Samantha asked. "Samantha..." Penelope called out. "Penelope what are you doing up here?" Raphael asked. "Oh she came upstairs after she saw me and you heading up here and then she's telling me some weird crap about our childhood." Samantha said. "Penelope you know you should stop talking about Samantha." Raphael said. "And yo
Alexander was preparing for the man walking towards him with a smile. He couldn't understand why people would waste their votes on someone as vile as him. Well they were going to make sure he doesn't have a career in the political race anymore. "Alexander McCallion." Gael smiled. "Mr governor." Alexander said with a straight face, well he wasn't known for smiling much so his looks weren't weird. "Long time no see.""Indeed.""I'm glad you could make it tonight." Gael said"Yeah, me too." Alexander smiled. "I hope Mr Weston and your father makes it tonight." Gael said. "Oh, I'm sure they would turn up." Alexander said. "Yeah, because I have a very nice surprise for everyone here." Gael smiled. "I'm sure you do." Alexander smiled reading more meanings to his words. "Guys I think there's a problem." Alexander said. "What is it Alexander?" Lucian asked. "Joelle I need you to text Mr Weston not to come tonight I think Gael is up to something." Alexander said. "Too late Mr West
The next day Samantha went to Karl's club. She hadn't been here since she was kicked out and Alexander forced her into his little deal and since then her life had been a drama.Well she wanted to fix everything and that includes facing her past. "Boss Miss Weston is here to see you." Johnson his manager said. "Let her in." He said immediately. He wondered why he saw the name Weston in his schedule, he knew Ethan lost his wife for more than seventeen years but he had never gotten himself drunk or gotten laid. So he wondered what the sudden visit was for. A bulky man walked into his office he knew that wasn't Ethan Weston and that definitely wasn't a woman. He heard the sound of clicking shoes and he was surprised to see who it was. "Samantha?" Karl asks surprised. "How..." He stuttered. "I see you're still not a good fan of news are you uncle?" Samantha asked."Samantha." Karl called out again as he hugged her. "Hi uncle Karl it's been almost three years." Samantha said. "Sa
Alexander was surprised to see Ken there. Well it's not like they all haven't had a common enemy that they've had to deal with. "Why are you here?" Alexander asked. "To make it hurt." Ken replied."Are you saying I can't make it hurt?" Alexander asked. "Maybe not. Let's do this together, I have a little score to settle as well." Ken said walking on ahead of Alexander. Alexander walked into the room and found Preston tied up. Alexander asked his blind folds be taken off."Ah Alexander McCallion, I wasn't expecting you'd be the one to bring me to such a place." Preston said. "Well you've gotten old, so old in fact that you're disgusting." Alexander said."I might totally deserve that." He said with a slight chuckle. "So what are you going to do? Kill me?" Preston asked."You don't think I can?" Alexander asked. "You and I both know you can't." Preston Cruz challenged."Should I kill you and make your son in law take the fall?" Alexander asked. "You live my daughter and her famil
