TERRA'S POV:

“Alright then, I will wait till he drives away then.” He walked forward probably to take a seat.

“My driver is here already. Go home, I know your daughter misses you already.”

After those words, he grinned at me without uttering a word and opened the back seat door for me and ensured I safely got in.

“Good night, beautiful. Thanks for keeping me company and just being here tonight.” I gave a polite smile and fixed myself in the seat comfortably.

“Good night, Mr Lauder.” I waved and he chuckled, shutting the door slowly.

As the driver started up the car and zoomed off, I thought back to the events of today and just sighed.

Unbeknownst to me, this conversation with James Lauder was the start of beautiful beginnings.

“T.” Evelyn called out as soon as I stepped into the house. I waved at her entering the kitchen and placing the bunch of cookies and fruits I had picked out at the grocery store before getting home.

    TERRA'S POV:6 YEARS LATER:“It was all sold out within an hour of the new release, I wasn't even able to get anything, not even the cute tops!” A girl complained in front of the store which was completely empty. No single clothes were seen in it.“Same here! Will there be a new release soon?” Another girl inquired from one of the employees who was too busy and scared to even answer the girls so he simply nodded and walked away.“I'm so curious about who is even behind these designs and clothing lines. They have me spending my entire savings on them plus I want the designer to design my wedding dress. Did you see the release of last year's wedding gown? I cried watching one of the models.” A woman talking with her friend close to the store said,“Me too but when did you even get a man?” They both laughed out loud.“I'm planning ahead. I even told my daddy.” Her friend shook her head at her and they saw the medias approaching so they fixed themselves up as they were excited to be on th

    TERRA'S POV:Eleanor was a joyful, happy soul and many others said she had most of my features though she and her brother were identical. Her hair was dark brown and so long, we often went for a trim. She was like my best friend, we went to get our nails done together, we picked out matching outfits obviously without leaving Eric out as I had gotten a designer just for his clothes. Her eyes were a mixture of her father's eyes and mine but my daughter was stubborn, playful, her brother's keeper and outspoken. The twins were sometimes so opposite, I was baffled.“Go change out of your uniform and I will be there to give you two a shower.” She made a stank face and folded her arms across her chest.I laughed and stopped chopping the onions and the smell of the food made me feel hungry, "What?”“Oh nothing, but we have been bathing and taking care of ourselves. You can please only come and supervise afterwards, okay pretty mother?” She made baby eyes and I shook my head at her.“Okay, pre

I have seen nothing but a strong, gorgeous, sophisticated, multi-talented, determined, influential woman because just seeing you strive hard, work day and night to achieve your goals and provide your kids with the best life has influenced me to do more for myself as well.

The attire was not only aesthetically pleasing, but it was also perfectly suited for the warm climate. As the waiter departed after taking our orders, I let out a small yet appreciative smile in his direction taking in the sweet smell of the restaurant but my mood soured right after.“So Nina, what's going on with you? I feel like I only ever see you with Mrs Anderson lately. At events, at the malls, are you two having a sexual relationship or something?” Deborah questioned laughing, making my other friends burst out in fits of laughter while I frowed my eyebrow completely irritated and annoyed by her dumb question.Like what in the world…did that mean?Earlier today, my friends from high school called and invited me out. I obviously didn't want to hang out with them as they were just so annoying but wealthy which made my mum literally throw

    NINA'S POV:LATER THAT DAY:I took off my heels as I stepped back into the house I grew up in. I smiled sadly as I recalled a memory of my father and I. It was one of those days back in college where I had just returned back from an outing with Ross and the others, and the guys had been talking in coded tone to Ross the entire evening about a girl and he had just kept on smirking. I hated that they didn't include me and even worse the thought of Ross being with another girl.“Why are you so upset?” My father asked, removing his glasses and placing his laptop on the center table as I sat on the couch folding my arms across my chest and huffed. He was most likely working and I really wasn't about to bother him about any boy issue.“Nothing. I'm going to my room now.” I tried to stand up but his serious expression and stern voice made me stop in my tracks and sigh deeply.“Just talk to me. Is it the guys or please don't tell me it's Ross?” He let out an exaggerated sigh as I just looke

As we walked by, she ran down the list of meetings I had today and I was hearing but not listening after hearing about the important meeting with the board members the rest was a blur. The staff by the elevator and the ones we came across greeted and gawked but I spared them no glance.Over the years, my company was all that mattered, we had created dozens of restaurants around the world, hotels, invested in various amusement parks and one which my team and I had spent time, and money on and it was opening very soon in about three to four months. The basic subject of today's meeting was all about the progress and setting an exact date.We finally arrived at the board room and I exhaled deeply when I saw my mother discussing with one of the boa

Because you married that whore your Grandfather asked you to marry but you can't even date Nina and get married so that YOU can have a happy life and give me grandkids!” She questioned raising her voice and I laughed clenching my jaw.“First of all, Don't you ever refer to my TERRA as a whore ever again. Also I won't even be dating Nina ever again after the hurt she put me through back then. She and I can be distant friends but that's it!”I didn't want to go deeper on my feelings for Nina, it wasn't the place nor the time plus staring at me now, she wouldn't even care.“So she hurt you in the past, it's been years since that happened, get over it! “ She snapped and I looked at her bewildered. “I have gotten over it, but it seems like you two haven't and I think it's pathetic, don't you?” I shot back calmly leaning back on my seat but my mother was furious.. I was honestly getting really tired of having this conversation every year.Sometimes, I thou

Everyone in the golf clubs, and the elites titled the Morris as a pure disgrace, shame and waste.And I truly did not care, as long as my kids and I got

So freaking useless!” She hit the television stand in anger and shook her head.“I have already lost. I have nothing again, no way to clear my name out of Nina's stupidity.

They had been able to give the old woman and her grandson the sum of a million for their help in finding Nina and the family was given the media space to be able to show their appreciation to Ross and Terra, letting them know it will go a long way in pulling them out of the hand to mouth lifestyle they had been living especially since the grandmother was single handedly raising the boy.“Mummy.” Eric called out from his bed with droopy eyes, and she waved at him with a smile trying her best not to wake Eleanour who was finding it hard to close her eyes.Eric was not shot neither was Ross but Terra still requested he stayed

But coming here, it was just the regular day to day activities and then trips during the holiday but coming here made me realize there's a lot more to life. And I just think…everything happens for a reason and I have experienced all I need to here.” The fact that he didn't hold me accountable or become harsh to me made me feel bad for yelling at Ross and his mother…for another person's action.“I have been thinking about moving away as well. Morgan and Sarah have been calling me everyday since they heard of this. And I totally feel the same way you felt about here and Aurenia except I didn't find the love of my life here.” We both chuckled weakly and he responded, “Yeah okay.”As they both discussed more about moving back, unbeknownst to them Ross and Evelyn, who was bringing breakfast, ove

Last night, when I couldn't sleep, I snuck out in my own mansion in order to prevent Evelyn, who was literally everywhere, from waking up. I drove in one of my old sports cars, which allowed the cool night breeze to run through my body and blow away the tears which kept flowing and I drove to weird looking areas, banishing the thought that I might be robbed, and showed them images of Nina if they had come across her but they had nothing.A particularly shabby looking man asked for some money before providing answers, feigning that he recognised her and as soon as I handed him money, he tucked it into his pocket and

Tell me where are you now and what do you want?” Ross asked with desperation and the other line remained silent.“WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU?” He shouted in anger, making Chandler jump a bit.“Hello? Who is this?
