IRIS'S POV:

“There was no emergency. It was simply an appointment, and I had been given the second chief executive of operations. My father had said it was to prepare me to run the company. And you know what? I'm happy. I'm happy I'm not just starting as the CEO, and I'm super excited, people at the company seemed pleased. I'm also grateful, its operations because I'm truly interested in that. My parents know me so well and I finally have another job, another taking care of my babies.” I explained and Mariana grinned from ear to ear.

“Get up, let me hug you.” She instructed and I stood up hugging her tightly. I smiled and appreciated as she muttered, “I'm so proud of you, my baby.”

“I'm going to take you shopping later on, but tell me, is the Chief operation officer handsome?” She inquired and I shrugged.

“His name is Oscar, and he seems like he's in his early forties. He is cute.” I didn't really care much to look at him, it was business.

Rather than asking questions about the company and project, he was trying to get to know me.

It will be okay and you have Aunty Mariana there as well to support.” She concluded and I heaved out a breath.“See that's why you're my best friend!” I mimicked her tone of earlier and stretched out my hand for a hug and she embraced me laughing. “Now is it just me or my man is talented? Did you see all those art pieces? Woof…It's crazy this house isn't on fire.” She commented in astonishment and pride, I smiled just seeing her in love.“They are.”“You know when my cousin got married a year ago, I was wondering what was wrong with me that I wasn't getting married or even proposed to.

Too many, it might sound unbelievable and impossible but after discussing with the Chief Operation Officer, and some engineers, they all remembered my ‘abandoned secret project’. I had been so passionate and dedicated to it, it was almost done.I had named it AquaSolis Haven, and it was meant to provide electricity to everyone in the entire city. It was a beautiful plan, it would generate so much income for the company and help so many people. Phebian, a friend from College, who was an outstanding Civil engineer, had also been helping w

Go show them how talented you are, okay? And tell to not forget to record the entire thing and tell those other losers off!” Robert told Jason over the video call making Iris chuckle while packing up the cookies she had made because Jason loved it.“I will!” Jamie popped her face into the camera and Robert laughed giving her a thumbs up.“Win or or…I'm going to get you that new helicopter.” Robert promised and Jason nervously smile

You're too busy for me now?” Mariana asked playfully as they walked through the less crowded V. I. P section. “Girl, don't start.

As much as I might travel to various countries for work and vacation, there was nothing beating the adrenaline and excitement that ran through my veins every time I was going somewhere new. But not this trip though, I had been here and it just took my mind to the time I arrived here over nine years ago. I was happy, naive, speaking like a typical rich girl who didn't want anything from her parents, and oh….I was so not observant.“Mummy, you look scared. Doesn't she?” Jason pointed out, then turned to Jamie for confirmation. “Not really. She looks stressed though.” Jamie responded, and I just looked at them as they stared at me intently.“I'm not scared but a little bit stressed out that's all. How about you two? How are you feeling?” I asked, then ch

I have no idea how the reporters came to know about your whereabouts.” The new driver, Corby, apologized and Mrs Knight heaved out a sigh.“They are the parazzi and they are everywhere.

Did they die?” Loud questioning came from the abandoned duplex out of town, with little to no internet and power majorly supplied by the solar panel gotten from Iris's company.She packed up her hair in a messy bun and yawned, “I did and those little bastards didn't. You know I have always hated those two kids since I laid my eyes on them and it was going to be easier this way. Getting rid of them as well as having Iris crying her eyes out. It's so annoying seeing her grinning from all directions of the camera, I just wish I was able to stay longer and see the tears rolling down her fat cheeks.”She tossed the little transparent bag of poison on the table stand in her room while he sat on the bed laughing at her words while keeping his eyes on her as she stripped out of her clothes. “Well, as long as there are no cameras that capture your face, it's great to keep them on their toes and have fun with them.

    IRIS'S POV:Now I felt totally horrible and I ran through my face, everywhere was as silent as a graveyard which was definitely a wrong comparison given the situation at ground. To make matters worse, some medical personnels came out rolling a covered body out but stopped when they saw us. I could hear a sniffle coming from someone which I would guess to be Sophie, she hated situations like this.“I'm so sorry.” I coughed out and he smiled tightly.“I totally understand and I'm sorry for all the trauma and pain I caused you in the past, and what Gabriel is doing to you and your family. You still hit as hard as before I see. “ He joked trying to lighten up the mood as he adjusted his suit, and there was a cut on his lip.“Thank you for the suit and for this hit. I needed it more than you would ever imagine.” He looked surprisingly sincere, looking so hurt and he walked off. I could feel everyone's eyes glued on me and waiting for my next move.I closed my eyes for a second before hurry

    IRIS'S POV:THAT EVENING:“I came as soon as I heard and Bonnie stayed back with the baby. What are they saying?” Carl joined us in the hallway, greeting everyone who was just as anxious. I remained silent and to myself wiping away my tears, ignoring everyone's word of comfort and encouragement, just thinking long and hard of what had possibly gone wrong. As the twins were rushed in about thirty minutes ago, we all overheard the doctors and paramedic suggest that they were most likely poisoned and Jason's condition was more critical than Jamie.From where? By who? When? “I should have been more cautious and careful. If anything happens to them, I will never be able to forgive myself.” I thought outloud and placed my head in my hand, trying my best not to break down into tears and I could feel Jonathan's muscular arm instantly pulling me.“It's not your fault, Iris. They are going to be fine.” Mariana and Sophie said in unison, just like the twins and I imagined never getting to hear

Even with little to no make up.“It's all you, love. You are so talented, passionate and amazing, it's only right you get your flowers and deal with whoever attempts to tarnish your image.” She spoke sweetly and I held onto her waist firmly, unable to wipe the smile on my face.The switch in people's words and reactions to me was quite amusing. My assistant had read what was being said now and I was just glad, the restaurant would continue receiving customers as this also affected the sales of the restaurant. “I love you so much, with everything in me!” I told her with absolute sincerity, and she cupped my cheek, pressing her lips on mine and kissing me softly.“I love you too, and the kids and I are so proud of you.” She

    IRIS'S POV:“In the absence of any confessions or words from either of these great chefs. Let's begin….” The announcer stated, and began cutting down along with every other person in the audience as well as the kids who were just so energetic from all that sugar intake.“3….2….1…” And they began, grabbing their utensils and everything needed.The hall was not so large, it had a capacity of two thousand people because as soon as the tickets were out they were instantly sold out. Many referred to the competition as the ‘greatest battle of the sexiest chefs.’ And what was better than watching it in person…The hall was dimly lit, and the spotlights were on the contestants who had their eyes facing to the audience and the judges who also watched how they had prepared it. I wasn't even as tense as I should be, because one of the judges was present at the revealing of this new meal and he had been one who gave Jonathan thumbs up.But I feared whoever was behind bribing Chef Ryan could also

I am Iris Knight, wife of Jonathan Knight and I will answer a few questions after sharing some words.” I spoke in a very assertive tone, speaking into the different microphones before me. “Chef's Ris was made inspired by me because I am my husband's taste, which is probably why a single bite of the meal will always make you moan or groan at its blended delicious taste. Chefs who have been in love could probably understand what I'm talking about. Chef Ryan who knows if he has or would ever experience the love Jonathan and I share, what if he truly has, won't it be great if he gathered with us by tomorrow night with it being publicly streamed, in order for the whole world to see the same passion and ease in his eyes as he cooks. We've all witnessed Jonathan Knight prepare this meal confidently for years, how come we haven't heard or seen Ryan Jared do the same?
