Lois immediately went over to his wife. He feared that she is injured as Abby told him that they're currently in the hospital.
"Make sure that there are no prying eyes outside and inside of the hospital." he ordered Felix.
The assistant nodded and made few calls for security. A private room is set immediately and only the director knows he's here. He's a close friend and trusts him a lot.
"Lois, it's great to see you again! Miss Harisson is safe in the private room I arranged. I made sure the nurses and doctors who handled her won't say a thing." The hospital director, Jonathan said.
"Thank you. Is she alright?"
"She's in a good condition only a few cuts and bruises."
All he can see is anger upon seeing her covered in bandage. Whoever did this he'll make sure to pay them back triple.
"Lois..." Veena winced from the bruise on her arm.
Abby was driving in a normal pace un
01/31/22 Hello! Supposed to have tons of update during the holidays. However my country got hit by a big storm and took a month for electricity to get back. Hope you will like this new update.
"Well? Is the job done?" Helen asked in a hushed tone."Well...about that." the caller replied.Her eyes widened. She hoped that it was a success and not a failed plan."Veena's driver was too good and was able to swerve the car in time. We hit the vehicle behind them instead. Thankfully we got out unscathed before the anyone could catch us. We only left few injuries on Veena, but we bet she's definitely still alive and breathing.""Y-You idiot! How could you let her go alive!? You could have just kidnapped her in the middle or something!" Helen wanted to strangle these incompetent men."We're sorry madam! There was a police officer nearby who was on a day off. We couldn't do anything else!""Ugh! I'll deal with you later!" Helen ended the call, fuming mad."Mom? How was it?" Ashley asked."Useless men! The plan has failed! I'm sure Veena is aware by now that we are the ones capable o
The conversation Veena had with Lois at the day of the accident bothered her mind. She agreed to a 'friends with benefits' thing in their marriage. "There is nothing wrong with sleeping together. If ever one of us needs to release the tension in the body, then we have each other. It's easy as that, Veena." Those were the words he told her. Knowing how busy she would be for the new company. She didn't hesitate to agree. Just intimate moments in bed with no feelings attached. She is alone at home as Abby went to celebrate her sister's birthday. And Lois has tons of work to do along with his assistant, Felix. He was fussing around to increase the security in the house for her own safety. She tapped on the pad of paper with her pen. The plans for her new company, Luxuria, is nearly done. Her mind blanked out forgetting what to write. The sound of the door bell rang and she glanced at the clock. It's
Corinne gave Veena a house tour and introduced every family member of the Rossenovs. Olivia Rossenov was their mother and passed away because of heart attack. Their father married Kiera Austen, the step mother, and their half-brother, Fabian, was from a third mistress. Claude Gregory is their loyal butler and has always took care of the siblings throughout his life. "So, is Kiera the head of the family? She looks too young to be your step mom." Veena asked. "No. My grandfather accepted her into the family but it doesn't mean that she's the next head of the Rossenov family." "I apologize for prying but may I know why?" Corinne sighed and stopped by the picture frame of her grandfather. "Kiera Austen is my father's mistress." Claude cleared his throat. "Miss Corinne, Miss Veena, dinner is served." he announced. "Come, the whole family will be happy to meet you." Corinne grabbed her hand and pulled her to the dining hall.
When Veena went downstairs a scrumptious meal is already prepared on the table. Abby bowed slightly and helped her settled down on her seat."Boss has already left because of an emergency meeting. He wishes you to enjoy this delicious meal he prepared." Abby said."Please send him a message of thanks for me, Abby." Veena smiled.This is a new discovery from her husband. She tasted the food and sighed at the delicious burst of flavors. She never knew he could cook. His skills is far superior than the expensive restaurants she went to."A gift from the boss. He requests that you'll open it tonight and wear it for the party. He will meet you there. I will also join you as a guard me, boss and Felix will be keeping an eye on you." says Abby."You don't have to go through lengths just to protect me. I can handle myself well." Veena frowned. What's with the sudden protectiveness?"I'm sorry but this is boss' orders." Abby apologized.
Veena seated herself beside Lois and he placed his arm around her shoulders. He filled her glass with wine and they clinked their glasses together."I'm sure you didn't steal me away from the party just to have a drink with you." she began."Can't I see my wife privately?"She flushed. Why is he being so sweet these days? The breakfast this morning, this dress and now he wanted her alone in a private room."The contract for Luxuria is ready and the only thing I'll be needing is your signature. There is no need for the construction of the building everything is already done. The location is closer to my company so I can keep an eye on you if ever your family tries to do something against you."She took the contract and signed it without reading the details. She trusts Lois that's why she didn't bother to read it. "You don't have to be worried about me I can take care of myself. I have Abby to protect me.""No."

Veena was roughly pulled away from Lois' arms and Stephen pushed her behind him. What is he doing!? Is he even aware that this scandalous scene will taint the Sullivan family's image? "How dare you put your hands on her!" Stephen growled at Lois. Lois did not react and was calm throughout Stephen's screaming anger. This reaction provoked Stephen and made him furious, because of anger his hand on Veena tightened. Veena winced and tried to remove his hand on her arm. It hurts. Before Stephen could do anything Lois stepped forward and pushed him, falling to the floor. The pain from Veena's face made him act recklessly. He growled upon seeing the bruise on his wife's arm. He held her in a protective manner. "For a man with a noble family name. You do like to manhandle women and for losing your cool easily. I wonder how will the rest of the Sullivan family react. You are the future of the Sullivan's business and tainting yo
Veena waited patiently in the VIP room with Abby. The curtains are now opened and she can see the events going on below. Tonight's segment is Lois' speech. As the wealthiest man in Geneva everyone are curious about him since there is not that much information about his private life. The host even requested for Lois to make a speech because it is a rare occassion that he attends party gatherings.Someone gently knocked on the door and a handsome man came in."Greetings! My name is Spencer Finley and I'm here to accompany you to a different VIP room. My friend, Lois, wishes to give you a better view once he gives out tonight's speech." he introduced himself.Veena squinted her eyes. Still not believing this gentleman's words. "Why should I trust you?"Spencer laughed nervously. Veena's cold eyes turned him into a scared puppy. This is his first time meeting Veena Harrison and did not expect the fierceness she has shown.
Ashley laughed as she watched the protesters causing trouble in front of the Fontana building. Her plan worked and this is enough to destroy her sister's reputation!A company with an unhealthy working environment is the greatest embarrassment a business could ever wish for!Her phone rang and it was Stephen. "Hey, honey! I miss you so much, why did you call me? Is there something wrong? Are there issues with the wedding preparations!?" Her once bitter voice suddenly turned sweet. "What have you done now!? Grandpa is now angry because you used the Sullivan's resources to cause trouble at Fontana! Get back here now and face grandpa!" Stephen's boisterous and furious voice made her shiver with fear.She didn't think that she'll be caught too soon! That old man is really vicious and his watchful eyes is troublesome. None of the Sullivan's have high regards towards her. Making her fall short from the family's favor. But Stephen's father gave her an offer. That is to do something signif
Lois winced as Veena tended to his wounds. She was frowning all the time and hasn’t spoken a single word to her husband since the fight. She brought him immediately to the hospital and the doctor told her he needed a week of bed rest due to small broken ribs.“Love…” Lois whispered, wanting to hold her hand.But she moved away and avoided his touch. Placing the items she used to redress his wounds on a tray. She volunteered to dress his wounds instead of bothering the nurses. "Talk to me." he begged. She turned away from him at the same time someone knocked on the door. It must be the food she ordered. After thanking Felix for delivering the food, she arranged the bed tray first. Lois was silently watching her, following her every move. Soon, Lois became annoyed and pushed the bed tray out of his way. He grabbed his wife's arm, making Veena lose balance. She squeaked from the sudden surprise and fell into her husband's arms. "What are you doing? I nearly spilled the rice porridge
"Mrs. Rossenov, Ashley is outside demanding to see you," Abby reported to Veena.It is early in the morning and the pregnancy is making her emotions go everywhere and the symptoms sent her frequent visits to the toilet. The news of Ashley's arrival just ruined her peaceful breakfast. "Madam! She was able to barge through the gates with the Sullivan's security force." "Veena! Open this f*cking door right now!" Ashley's raging shout can be heard outside. Veena placed down her cup. Feeling annoyed of the disturbance. "Give her a warm welcome for me, Abby. Let my husband know of Ashley's visit." After giving instructions to Abby. Veena went to the bathroom behind the kitchen to freshen up. Her weary and sick-filled face will make her look weak in front of that screaming banshee. "Where is that b*tch!? She's so tough challenging me publicly but won't face me right now!?" The ear piercing shout rang once again. "Gosh, there is no need for you to scream like a freaking dying banshee! I
The news has spread throughout Geneva and quickly climbed into the ears of the wealthy socialites.Meanwhile, Ashley was busy talking to her wedding planner and picking the flowers for her wedding. The well-dressed who came along with her were socialites and good at buttering up to Ashley.They were whispering to one another while constantly glancing at Ashley. She noticed this and wasn't happy of their backstabbing. Slamming her hands on the table, the three socialites jumped from the sudden bang."What are you guys whispering about? Are you planning something that will ruin my wedding?"The women shook their heads and expertly caressed Ashley's ego."Oh no, of course not Ashley. We would never ever try to do something like that. Your wedding will be the biggest and grandest of all time!" The blonde socialite replied."We were talking about the latest gossip in the city. And we're not quite sure if it is about you." says the brunette."It is all over the news! Here let us show you."
I marched straight into Fontana first to oversee the issues. A lot of employees were rioting outside the company and throwing spoiled food, rocks and whatever objects in their hands on the company's building. Abby was able to contact the police immediately once she received the news of the riot. The police were trying their best to calm down and apprehend violent employees. "There she is! The witch who destroyed our jobs!" A man shouted and pointed at Veena. The crowd became agitated and nearly broke through the line of policemen. Insults and curses were thrown towards Veena and she was not affected by them. It is for the best to remain calm and assess the situation especially with her pregnancy. "The board room is ready, madam. The shareholders are unsatisfied by this news." Abby reported."Alright, I'm ready to face those stupid old men anyway. Let's see which one of them is the culprit." Ever since her return to Fontana and gaining control nearly 70% of the company's operation
Breakfast in the Rossenov house was eerily quiet, tense and awkward. Only the sound of cutleries echoed in the dining hall. The food was delicious but the presence of Edwin dampened Veena and Lois' mood. Ever since Edwin's declaration of claiming the Rossenov empire, Lois' resentment to his father grew even deeper. Now, her husband kept himself distracted by peeling shrimps and placing them on her filled plate.Emmon noticed the tense atmosphere and cleared his throat, facing Dianne. "Tell us more about you Miss Dianne, other than being my son's fiance of course."Dianne was surprised for being put on the spot early in the morning. "My mother's side is from an aristocratic family, the Emersons from up north in the Haven City. My father is a Valence and used to live here in Geneva before falling in love with mom and transferred to Haven City. We ran a hotel empire back home and been running it for years." She shared without giving too much information.Veena stopped stabbing on her fo
PRESENT TIMEVeena gasped when Abby and Felix approached them from nowhere. It has been a while since she last saw both of them. She asked Lois about it once and he replied with the secretaries 'busy' with something else outside the country. She raised an eyebrow upon seeing their arms linked together. Abby blushed when her madam's gaze fell on their obvious proximity. "Where were you guys all along?" She crossed her arms as if scolding adult children. Felix placed an arm around Abby's waist. Making Veena's eyes grew even more excited. "When I saw your relationship with Mr. Rossenov, I was beginning to look back at my relationship with Abby. Actually, she's my girlfriend but we kind of had a bad blood between us. But right now, we're doing our best to fix things." Felix explained. She laughed and clapped her hands. "That's great! I've never thought of you guys having that kind of relationship. I thought Abby was having a small crush on you. Oh wow, this is so unexpected!" "F
Lois amorously kissed Veena's neck as he placed the princess necklace around her slender neck. It was a gift he gave her, to show off to the whole world that this is the woman he will spoil forever."I've been meaning to ask and I'm afraid it would be insensitive of me." Veena said."I'm your husband. Whatever you ask me of I won't be angry." Veena has been married to Lois for a few months already but there are still a lot of things to workout in their marriage. First things first is to know more about her husband. "What happened to your mom?" Lois sighed and motioned her to sit on the bed. "Her name is Emelyn. She was an amazing mother to me and Corinne but couldn't kept her marriage stable. After she gave birth to my sister the doctor declared her permanently infertile. My father wasn't happy because he wanted another son. Soon, our family started crumble when he kept on coming home late with unkept appearance. There mom found out that he was having an affair with his secretary.
Edwin Rossenov is finally coming home after ten years of living outside the country. Surprisingly, he's bringing home a fiancee! His arrival created excitement among the wealthy families of Geneva City.The Rossenov manor was a buzz as every servant decorated the main hall. Emmon invited a hundred guests to welcome the arrival of his son. He even invited his rival, the Sullivans!Everyone was excited but except for the two mistresses, Kiera and Marie Floryn. The public is questioning the position of the mistresses now that Edwin is introducing his fiancee to the public. The mistresses were too embarrassed to get out of the manor now that everyone is ridiculing them.Even the family's butler, Claude Gregory, was annoyed by these mistresses. Emmon ordered the poor butler to get the women out of their rooms and to ready themselves to welcome Edwin. Instead Claude got trashed by them with several items thrown his way. The honking car made Claude very happy. It was his moment to escape th
