NINA'S POV:

The sun was beaming on a lively Sunday afternoon when I stepped out of the mansion, adorned in a sleeveless, floral-patterned dress. 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

    ROSS'S POV:“Good morning Mr Anderson.” My assistant, Mady, greeted me with a polite smile as soon as the security opened the back door to my new car.I gave a head nod in response, keeping a straight face as we stepped into the office building. 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

    ROSS'S POV:“No, we have to talk. 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

    TERRA'S POV:“I'm not usually this mean, but that girl was not the prettiest and had such a bad attitude. She made me feel like those bullies from high school.” I laughed checking the reports and emails I had, leaning forward in my seat as I was in my office at my Fashion company and I scrolled through the email knowing well it was just elite women who wanted me to design something specially for them in order to have bragging rights. I did something special for them once in a while and they paid handsomely, one wouldn't believe it was for just a dress.However, I wasn't just making ‘a dress’, I was making magic and transforming thousands of women's looks.As my laughter died down, listening to Evelyn on one of her rants, I noticed she got silent, so I stopped what I was doing and asked, “What? Why did you get so quiet?”“Oh nothing, but how's the handsome James Lauder?” She asked and her tone was suggestive, making me cackle.“He's fine.” I answered simply knowing that wasn't what sh

I was a few miles away from my mansion and it was almost 9pm now and I had decided to drive myself back home just because I felt like driving.“I'm driving back, honey. Are you okay, sweetie? How's your brother?” I asked, trying to make sure everything was going on smoothly with them.“He and Uncle James are having a ‘man to man talk’ while Ivy is in the bathtub and I'm just here by myself.” I loved how articulated her words were, she spoke slowly and well, both my children were complimented for that often.But on another hand, I kept wondering what was going on with Eric.“Did something happen at school today with Eric?” I questioned then smiled small as I finally arrived in front of my mansion and the gates were automatic though it required a code but the security allowed me in.“Ummmm….Good night, Mummy. I love you.” She responded hastily, making me figure out that something reall

Fiona had no idea why but members from the company in the other state and shareholders also sent an email to me which had me a bit bothered. Everything at the toy company had been so perfect so far, I loved to keep it that way.“Good morning.” I greeted announcing my presence and everyone who seemed to only include men, halted in their discussion and turned towards me.They all stared at me with different facial expressions, however admiration and maybe lust held the majority. Rather than getting uncomfortable, I maintained a blank, professional demeanor, they couldn't even touch a strand of my hair even if they tried.“Let's get right into it.” I took a seat at my CEO position taking off my blazer and turned towards them.As I looked around, I saw Major Shareholders, COO, other executive officers from the company

Or is that the only reason you agreed to come see me?” I scoffed and rolled my eyes at his questioning and before I could respond, the waitress arrived.“Good afternoon! What can I get for the lovely couple today?” I scrunched up my face and was about to correct her as she seemed new here but James wouldn't allow me to speak as he spoke up.He listed out our orders knowing mine like the back of his hand. He was just so attentive and had a perfect memory.As she left, I exhaled, taking off my glasses and spoke up, “I did ask about your wellbeing, but whatever you're right. How are you doing today, Mr Lauder? How was the kid's slumber party? I apologize if my kids were a burden.” He looked at me like he was amused leaning back in his chair.“It doesn't matter now because I had to suggest it before you aske

However, their image is in shambles and rumor has it that their sales are in the garbage. I doubt it will be suitable to work with them, but the meeting with their CEO will be held in a few weeks as they had pleaded for more time, so I will review their proposal and inform you about that, sir.” The Marketing Director explained and I just hummed glancing through the file presented in order to publicize the launch.I had no idea who owned the company nor did I ever care, so I couldn't comprehend why he was trying to ensure

Hot tears ran down through her cheeks and her chest rose up and fell repeatedly. “Everyone will view my daughter as a criminal. How could I have given birth to such a useless being? 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
