"Yes, I was hoping for us to have a cup of tea together, Miss. Smith." Reed Ashton invited her to sit and stared at his student who had never let him down, but this time he was disappointed in her.
He had not anticipated that this student of his would chose to forfeit this way.
"Professor, you do not have to beat around the bush." She exhaled a breath as she had already read the expressions on his face.
"Then, explain why did you chose to stay behind and damage your own design?" He was certain that she would surpass all and won if it were not for her own doing, because there was no way someone could tamper with the jewellery models under the watch of CCTV camera. Only she could be this brave.
"It isn't completely damaged, it broke. Just a little damage to the

Master Anderson was agile to see the complicated fleeting emotions in his wife's eyes.He decided not to comment on anything, but coax her in to telling the matter herself on her own."Mia, my wife, I know there must be a reason you have been acting like this, but we've been together for so long. Which obstacles we haven't encountered yet? Take your time and tell me whenever you want to.

"Oh God, what happened!" "Call someone." Master Anderson could only utter these two words. What happened to his wife? Collapsing out of blue. Elizabeth understood his agony and nodded, trotted towards the main hall to call someone. There she saw Elian talking with someone on phone. "Young Master! Young Master!" "What happened?" Elian calmly asked like nothing happened. "Madam Anderson--" Elian suddenly had a sudden premonition. "What happened to mom?" "She.. she fainted." After he heard what Lisa had said, he rushed to the study room and everyone in the mansion started to prepare themselves to go to the hospital together. In the University.

"He's there, discussing something." Lisa silently pointed out at some other room that had a golden nameplate, 'Doctor Frederick.' Zaria frowned, "What is uncle doing over there when aunt is in another room? I should inform him of my arrival." As she made her way towards the room, she stopped dead in her track when she heard the doctor's words. "Haven't she told you about her illness?" "What illness?" Her uncle questioned. "She has a brain tumour. She has been coming here for three years for treatment. Strangely, no one in her house knows of this."The reason why she would disappear at times was all because of this? Brain tumour? Zaria's mind went blank when she heard of this. 'Aunt has a brain tumour?' 'Since when?' 'Why did she not tell th

"She wants to talk with you." Elian gazed at Elizabeth who seemed surprised at Elian Anderson's words. "Me?" She pointed at herself in astonishment. Elian simply nodded. "What are you waiting for? Go on!" Ria urged Lisa to go to her aunt while she straightened up and pushed her hazelnut strands behind her ear and looked at Elian with an eager look. "Is aunt alright?" Albeit, she was trying too hard to compose her emotions, but her eyes seemed to be not working for her anymore. They were shaking. Elian finally took a look at the girl in front of him. The girl who was soon-to-be his wife. Her fair cheeks had tear stains and her designer clothes seemed untidy as if she had run a marathon. "There's nothing to worry about. Also, mom would be more concerned if she sees you like this." Zaria blushed under his stare and touched her

"Is the bride ready yet?" A voice asked, outside the door. "Yes, just a moment! I'm retouching the make-up. You can come in now." Sofia answered as she applied the lip gloss on her princess' lips with concentration and lastly, fixed the veil on her head. "You look breathtaking today." Zaria looked up at the reflection of the mirror and stood up quickly from the stool, stupefied. "Alec!" Both the girls shouted in unison. "Hi." He smiled, standing there with a hand in his pants' pocket. His forest green emerald eyes showed gentleness. "Look at you! You have gotten more handsome now." Sofia exclaimed. "Thanks." He did not say much and only smiled again. "You guys still seem the same to me though." He teased her. Sofia narrowed her eyes, "Hey! I have gotten more pretty and hot, okay

"Is my daughter-in-law ready, Sofia?" When Madam Anderson arrived she did not see Sofia, rather she saw Alec talking with Ria."It's good to see you again, Madam Anderson." Alec lightly smiled."It's good to see you again, too, Young Master Williams." Madam Anderson nodded. She had not seen him in these past few years, so she did not feel close to him.This boy had grown to a fine young man in these years, she noticed."You're older than me, so please call me by my name." Alec gently requested.He was also polite and respectful."Okay, Alec." Mia Anderson finally smiled.He must have lost his feelings for her daughter now.

"Sofia, so you have finally decided to leave this house for good?" A loud voice sounded in the room, and soon the smashing of objects followed. Her little sister, Abigail winced. To her, it was a norm. Her mother's hysteria, coercion, and in the end, her guilt. Abigail sighed. She knew what the outcome would be if she let it continue. "Yes, I want to leave, and I will leave." Sofia was hell-bent. One of the reasons she wanted to escape was this. Ever since he left, her mother was never the same. For years, she tried to get her mother to accept reality. That she had to learn to live without him. However, it all went in vain. Her mom never understood. He was her everything to the point that her daughters had no value in her eyes.

"Excuse me, Miss?" Someone shook her. Blinking her eyes open, she was greeted by a man in a white coat. She was a little dazed."Huh?"The light was encircling the place when she came to her senses completely and moved her neck which hurt. Sleeping in a chair and that too on a cold night with no blanket made her body freeze in some places.Albeit the area she was in was a secluded corner– away from the hospital, still, she could hear the faint bustling of people, the stomping of their hurried feet, and the sounds of wheelchairs screeching on the floor.Last night it was all too quiet that she forgot she was in a hospital and slept. One short nap became a thorough sleep and the long night evolved into a day.Her phone buzzed.Mumbling an 'excuse me', she checked her phone to see 6 missed calls from home and got worried."Hello?""Ria, we're trying to reach out to you but you weren't answering."

Zaria Smith knew the moment she saw this woman named Christina Norman, she was going to be a thorn in her relationship with Elian. For 3 days, Zaria did not see Elian and Christina. She had no idea what they were doing. As she passed by the hallway, she heard the low whispers of the servants, their eyes following her and observing her moves as if she were a criminal who had done a heinous crime. Were they blaming her for Christina's state? Was it Ria who forced Christina to eavesdrop on her conversation with her husband, Elian Anderson? Deep in her thoughts, she did not realise she had bumped into Sebastian. Startled, Zaria shook her head, her mind disturbed. "I wasn't looking clearly. Forgive me, Uncle Sebastian." "Young Madam, I..." "What is the matter, Uncle Sebastian? Why are you so pale?" Zaria was getting worried. Why was he so quiet? Butler Sebastian was silent as he kept his gaze low. "Is it about Elian?" "Young Madam, you have to promise me that you must stay calm

'I will finally talk to him! I can't tolerate her presence anymore. Humph, if she has no recollection of 2 years ago, she better make new memories if she can't recover the old ones.' Zaria was thinking when she stilled and watched the scene unfolding. "Elian, you're back!" Christina leapt into Elian's arms happily. "Mmh." "When are you planning to bring your friends here, Elian? I haven't seen them for a long time and I want to meet them." Zaria was in disbelief. This Christina had met them, but Zaria.. Elian had never introduced his friends to her. Not even a simple description of how they might have looked like. He always had dinner outside the house when he visited his friends. "They are busy nowadays," Elian answered and tried to separate himself from Christina but she would not budge. "Well, forget them. Do you feel the difference here?" "..." "Ugh, look around! I have changed everything." Only after that, Elian's dark eyes went to every corner. "The previous setting w

"Good grief!" The next morning when Butler Sebastian saw Zaria, he was flabbergasted. "What happened to you, Young Madam?" "Uncle Sebastian..." Zaria Smith could not get a single wink last night. The moment she would shut her eyes, she would see Elian together with that woman. She had black bags under her eyes and slightly puffed cheeks, giving a great impression of a panda. The torment she and her soul went through was intolerable. None of her friends was here. Who should she confide in? Past, he said. Was she truly just a past? Then why did he keep her here? Butler Sebastian was concerned. Was the task not successful? Since he could not get a word out from Zaria, he sighed. "Young Madam, have something first and then resolve the matter." "Resolve the matter? Will he let us do it?" Zaria muttered, a bitter face forming. "Yes?" "Oh, nothing." As she proceeded to go to the kitchen, she heard some maids speaking. "That guest staying in the room opposite the hallway, isn't she

The dinner ended in silence. Zaria waited for Elian to say something or start a conversation, but he did not. He seemed distracted. The atmosphere was romantic and dreamlike yet the tension and nervousness somehow kept coming in. Under the table, Zaria clenched her fists apprehensively. "Elian, I need to talk to you." Elian was brought back to reality as he sensed Ria's gaze on him. Blinking, he cleared his throat, "I have been meaning to tell you something for quite a while as well. I can only let this out today now that I have got the chance." Zaria's heartbeat accelerated. Was he too- She gratefully thanked her ancestors and the heavens for this moment. With a shy look, she shook her head, her voice soft and she gazed down. "You can speak first. I can wait." "Are you sure?" Elian asked seriously. "Mmh." After all, whether she said it or he said it, it was the same. Sighing, Elian made eye contact with Zaria. He was holding this girl for a long time knowing that she could h
