Ophelia blinked rapidly; her brain was trying to tell her to say something, but her mouth could not process what she was to say. She gulped and tried to close her mouth that had been left open, but nothing worked. It was as if her brain had gone frozen and her body was working without it.

"Ophelia?" Cade said, snapping his fingers in her face. She blinked and snapped back to reality.

"What did you say?" She murmured, almost chewing on her finger.

"I said I like you; that is what I want to say."

"That's impossible," she said, beginning to pace the entire floor. "That cannot be," she added, and he shook his head.

"I do like you," he said as if to make sure that she heard what he was saying to her.

"You like me?" she said again, sitting back on the stool and then jumping off it and then pacing around again.

"You are going to bore a hole into the floor," he said when he did notice that she was pacing around more than someone should.

"I don't care," she muttered, stopping suddenly, turning

    Ophelia paced around her room; she could not believe her ears. She wondered why she felt so angry and violated to hear him say that he liked her when that was what she wanted. It truly did not make sense, but that was how her mind decided it wanted to work at that time.She sat on her bed, pressed her forehead with her fingers, and closed her eyes tightly. This was not how any of this was supposed to go. She did not know how it was supposed to go, but this was not it.She nearly jumped out of her skin when she heard a knock on the door. "I know you do not want to talk to me," his voice rang through the door.She held in a breath inside her cheeks and stood up. "I know you are angry, but I do not know why, even though it seems like I should know why, and it is killing me not to know," he added.She began to walk to the door, trying to make sure her feet did not make too much sound as they touched the ground. "We can talk about this any time you are ready, but please do not take too lon

    "You are going to hurt your back," Cade finally murmured after they had stayed in the bent position for a few more seconds. "And mine too," he added in a strained voice and let out a loud groan as he put her to her feet and held her waist to himself."Stand still I wanted to look at you more" she said. He stared into her eyes and it was like she was passed or something. He could not understand what she was saying. Her actions and words did not seem to match, she had been so angry and stormed out on him earlier but now she was back and asking him to stand still so she could stare at him."The food" he murmured. She placed a finger across his lips and made a shushing sound to him. "It would get burnt" he said, she felt his mouth move under her finger and cause a certain kind of vibration through her entire being."I am really holding myself back here," she said taking a step back. His hands that had been wrapped around her waist fell to his side."So am I" she said taking more steps unt

    They sat there for a good moment discussing back and forth how she could be Toria and why she was confessing now. She told him that she had to tell him so he would know when the seed of liking him was sowed into her life. By the time they had concluded talking about it, it was already well into the evening."I was jealous" Ophelia murmured. Now they were sitting comfortably with her hand on his forearm. It was a better position than the upright position they had before."Jealous?" he asked, shocked that she would ever say that. Did he ever do anything to make her jealous?"Yes, how could you even think to leave me all alone here and go on a trip with your ex-girlfriend?""I did not go on a trip with my ex-girlfriend; I went on a trip, and my ex-girlfriend, who happens to be my assistant, accompanied me on the work trip, he said, trying to defend himself."You still went on one and if anyone ever hears this they would not be able to understand it" she replied."I had no choice" he trie

    Cade opened his eyes and looked beside him almost immediately; it was like he was trying to confirm if he was in a dream or if everything that happened at night was real, and Ophelia was beside him, sleeping soundly. It felt too surreal as he stretched out his hand and patted down her head. "It's real," he said, kissing her forehead gently. He silently pulled himself off the bed. He was supposed to go to work, but luckily for him, he had given his assistant off days, meaning he could also use that as an excuse to skip work.Ophelia's eyes fluttered open as she looked around."It's not my room," she said in a loving tone."It's not mine," she said, sitting up in bed, wrapping the blanket over her body.She watched the door open, and Cade came in with two glasses on a tray in his hand. "There you are," she said, biting her bottom lips in a coy manner."You are awake already," he said, rushing to the side of the bed as he carefully dropped the tray to the side of the bed and sat down bes

    "You barely even touched your breakfast," Cade said, following behind her as she rushed out the door."I am late and would be even later if I spared a second to eat." She said with a full mouth as she tried to chew down the bite of the sandwich she had taken. She had taken as many bites as her mouth could take because she felt bad for not eating the meal he had taken his time to prepare for her."You are the boss; I am sure the company can run without you for a few seconds," he said."You know what you are right but still wrong," she said, stopping in her tracks. She turned to him and planted a quick kiss on his lips, and then she was out of the door before he could say a word.He just realized that maybe she would have gotten to eat the breakfast if he had packed it fully, so he rushed back to the kitchen to get the sandwiches left out on the table into a clear disposable bag for her, but by the time he got out of the floor, she was already long gone. "What am I going to do all by my

    Cade had agreed to meet with his mom; she said she had something to tell him, and even though this was tough for him, he agreed to have lunch with her. After meeting with her, he was scheduled to go home and meet with his grandfather. He had to iron out the problems now before they went on to pose problems for him soon."Thank you for meeting me," Valerie said as Cade sat down on the chair in the cafe. They agreed to meet. He only agreed to meet her out in the open because he was sure that this wouldn't spark any rumours, and in case anything came up from Haperr posting any images, this could serve as evidence that it was just a friendly meeting like this one."Everyone needs to get a chance to right the wrong," he said, like he was giving him the opportunity of a lifetime."Thank you," she said again. She raised her head and looked around. "Do you want something to drink?" she said, fumbling with her bag to get out her purse from it. "I will buy you something," she said, holding onto

    Cade had managed to convince Valerie to be standing in front of the Vale mansion at that moment. Her palms were sweating, and no matter the number of times she rubbed them against her skirt and handkerchief, the sweat flowed so freely that it made her think that maybe she was sick."Cade, let me just go back," she said suddenly as she thought that maybe he did not really need to get his apology. She was fine with whatever happened; she definitely could not show up in front of the almighty Charles Vale."Ms. Valerie, I really do want to forgive you and begin to figure out a way that we can have a relationship," Cade said, turning to him. "If you do not want that, you can walk away again," he said harshly before adding in a low tone but still trying his best to make it heard by her. "Just like you did before."The words were enough to get Valerie riled up; she had to do what it took to restore the relationship with her son, and that was the reason she came here after all. She returned t

    "How dare you barge into here?" Charles asked, looking up at Abigail, who was now taking gentle steps towards them. He had forbidden the woman to enter his room without permission and she dared barge into the room and was even screaming on top of her voice as well."You can never do that; I forbid you from doing that." Abigail did not mind anything that would happen at that moment. She had suffered enough for the Vale family to be treated as trash and discarded when they no longer saw use for her."I am the one who can forbid anything in this house, and I am asking you nicely to leave," Charles said, staring at her. She had walked to Valerie and was now standing before her. She was holding her body as if she were wrapped in a hug herself."How dare you show up here after all this time? Was destroying my home twenty-three years ago not okay for you? Was taking away my husband from me not your life goal? Do you also want to somehow destroy the life of my son? Do you also want to throw m

    Abigail could not believe that instead of debunking the rumours that Cade was an illegitimate child, he was owning it like it was his identity. He was still facing so much backlash for keeping it a secret from the public that the people seemed not to like the idea behind the fact that he was not a full-bodied Cade.The girls who swooned over him before suddenly began to dislike him. Abigail was thrilled, but she knew that the battle was not easily over; there was no way that Charles would just let him go; she needed to do something that would make the board of directors and all of the people of the nation want him to leave the company. She had to make him unfit.She was glad that she always prepared for this; while she was busy siphoning money away, she was still actively preparing for someone else to take the blame in her stead, and now it meant that she could easily take all of the blame and dump it on him. She had called Frances into the room to share the news with her; she knew th

    Carl had come to meet his grandfather earlier. He was tired of his mother's games and how she kept trying to put him in the middle of it all. He knew he was incapable of being the good chairman the company needed, and amongst all the grandchildren, only Cade had been preparing for this moment his whole life.The rest of them sat with their hands folded because they believed that since they were affiliated with the Vale family, a responsibility was going to drop on their laps soon, and they could get on with their lives. Even without the jobs in the company, they could live good lives on the return on the shares they owned because they all owned a lot, and the company was always doing well."But Grandpa, if we do that, the prices of the shares?""See this," Charles said, showing an electronic tablet that had been resting on his lap since he came in. "This is supposed to go up tomorrow, so are you saying we should do nothing about it?"Cade took it up and read through it. His face chang

    "I did not think that you would help me out," Harper said to Green with a smile on her face. She had called him about a week ago to tell him that Ophelia and Cade were now locked in. Green had been so angry about it. He waited years for Ophelia, only for her to end up Cade. He had expected that he could pull them apart, but now he was hearing that she was together with Cade and they loved each other now.When they kept telling the public that they were deeply locked in, he could tell that she was doing this just because her father asked her to do it. He waited, hoping that there would be a time when they went their separate ways and then he would swoop in to save the damsel in distress."I refuse to lose to Cade.""I like how you think," Harper said, and her phone began to ring. She took up her phone and stared at the screen. "Ophelia is calling me?" She murmured, looking at the screen, her eyes growing wide and wider."What are you waiting for? Pick it up," Green urged her."I should

    Frances was sitting in a coffee shop; she had gotten a message from Ophelia that they had to meet up. As much as she did not want to have to go out there to meet her, she was curious to see her face after reading the news. She had not thought to publish the news like that because she did not want to do anything that might affect Cael, be it directly or indirectly, because she still believed that they would be able to get together soon.She was however happy for whoever had taken that news and ran with it; the entire city was buzzing while waiting for a statement on the family. She felt that now that Cade was so put in the public eye, Charles might consider Cael as a better-suited candidate for the position."Did I keep you waiting for long?" Ophelia asked as she sat down.Frances swallowed as she saw how good she looked; she was tempted to almost comment on it; she did not look like she had seen the news. "No, I just sat down a minute ago," she said, and Ophelia nodded."Have you orde

    THREE DAYS AFTER THE WEDDING TUESDAY MORNING "Honey" Ophelia sat by the side of the bed shaking Cade; his eyes opened slowly as he wrapped his hand around her waist and pulled her in."Good morning, darling," he said and pouted, waiting for a kiss. She closed her eyes and bent down to kiss his lips. "That was so short," he said, his eyes opening wider. "Something is wrong; what is wrong?" he asked, his eyes catching a glimpse of the frown on her face. "What happened?" he asked, sitting in bed quickly."You might want to see this," she said, taking her phone and giving it to him. He took the phone from her hand and sat up straight. He read through the screen as his eyes widened with each statement he came across."What is this?""The number one trending news in the city this morning.""From what source?""Apparently it started as a rumour from a blog but when the reporters reached out to Abigail yesterday evening for an interview, she did not confirm or deny it so they are just carry

    "My mom wanted you here, but I never did, so it is crazy that you are trying to force me to sleep with you," Cael scoffed as they sat on the bed in the room. They had been so preoccupied with other things that it was the night of the wedding that they all realized that they did not have a house, so they went back to the mansion.Charles had taunted them for their poor planning; Cael could not believe that his grandfather had not stepped up to do anything concerning the wedding even after he had leaked the secret to him. He was feeling overwhelmed by the situation and was now convinced that his grandfather was doing the right thing by not allowing him to be the next in line for succession. Even when he had leaked the secret of the wedding to Charles, he did not do anything about it.Even this evening, when they got back to the house after the wedding, Charles was not shocked to see them back at the mansion; he just nodded his head at them and retired to his room. He did not know why he

    "You look so beautiful," Fiona gushed over her daughter as she entered the room."I do?" Frances asked, and her mother nodded."Like the star of the show that you are," she murmured, and Frances smiled.She had been so busy stressing and preparing for the wedding that she feared she might not look good in any of the images because of how stressed she was. She felt good to receive a compliment from her mother considering how shallow she was; she would be into complimenting something or else she found it appealing to the eyes."I hope you remember all I have been telling you." Fiona said, and Frances nodded.Her mother had basically turned it into an anthem that was engraved in her mind. She had told her to make sure to get pregnant between the first few weeks of pregnancy so she could have an edge over Ophelia, who was still yet to show any signs of having a baby. She also told her to make sure she sucked up to Charles, even though they all knew how almost impossible that might be."Do

    THE FAY OF THE WEDDING Ophelia's eyes fluttered open as she turned to Cade sleeping beside her. She felt his hand that had been holding her head up all night. She snuggled into him and felt his hand pull her in closer."Are you awake?" she murmured, trying to look at his face from her position."No," he drew out, and she laughed."You are asleep yet talking?" she said, and he tried to nod but was failing badly because of the pillow."I talk in my sleep," he added, and she gave him a frown."Then sleep and talk some more. I want to go get myself a cup of tea," she said, trying to stand up from the bed, but his hand on her wrist pulled her back, and she dropped to his chest."What are you doing?" she asked, propping herself up with her hand on his chest."I think you forgot something," he said with a pout and his eyes closed.She traced his pouted lips with her fingertip. "And what can that be?" she asked, feigning ignorance."I know that you very well know what I am talking about," he

    A FEW DAYS TO THE WEDDING"I have something to report," Paul said, coming into Charles's office. He had been working in the background to make sure that Aigail and Cael's plan did not work. He knew that they had been so busy with the board meeting, and he had to work too. He was not going to sit down and assume that since he was the chairman, everyone was supposed to be automatically loyal to him.He was meeting with all of the board members and directors while trying to know their stand on the matter; for most of them, they kept trying to play both sides and see which side would favour them. Charles lowered the glasses from his face and dropped them so they dangled by a rope on his neck.The entire company was so tense that even a child could tell that something was up. The staff were trying their best to be careful not to choose sides so they did not find themselves jobless after the board meeting. Everyone was walking on eggshells since the chairman was no longer working from home
