“Hey, how are you feeling?” Irene, Charlotte’s personal assistant asked as she entered the changing room where Charlotte and the other models were getting ready. “I'm being pushed to my breaking point. This is one of the biggest fashion shows in the world. I can't afford to mess it up and I'm nervous like crazy. How do you think I’m feeling Irene? ” Charlotte asked. The make-up artist was working on her at the same time the fashion designers were working on her outfit. This was one of the many reasons she hated fashion shows. They required a huge amount of work not to mention the strict diet she was always required to follow just to fit in her clothes and the heavy make-up she would have to wear. She hadn’t eaten anything all day just so she could look her best.She wouldn't bother attending fashion shows if she could help it but it was a part of her job and she couldn't ignore it as it would affect her career. Irene put her hand on Charlotte’s shoulder. “You’ll do great. You’re C
"Alright everyone, please gather around me, I want to say a few words," The director called. All the staff and models stopped what they were doing and gathered around the director. "The show is about to start. There are a lot of important personalities who want to see our new designs. I want you all to go out there and give it everything you've got," the director said and then turned to Charlotte. "You are going to be the first and last model to walk the stage. I hope you're prepared for it.” Amy clenched her fists in anger. She was supposed to be the one in Charlotte's place. She used to be the first and model to walk the runway but everything changed a year after Charlotte became a model. Now she was always after Charlotte. ‘Bitch,’ she cursed under her breath. I’m ready to wow the audience sir,” Charlotte answered.“That’s good to hear. We have less than five minutes before the show begins. Now, I want all of you in your positions,” The director ordered. Charlotte went to t
"Bastard!" Amy cursed in anger as she read the message Sebastian sent to Charlotte over and over again. She had given tonight her all and he actually had the guts to compliment Charlotte instead of her. She would not take this lying down. Amy dropped Charlotte's phone in order to avoid being caught by her and left the room. She couldn't punish Sebastian for betraying her like this as that would mean digging her own grave. However, she could do as she pleased with Charlotte and get away with it just like she had always gotten away with it in the past. She would have to teach Charlotte a valuable lesson for stealing her spotlight and her boyfriend and what better way to do it than to use her weakness against her?Amy chuckled and mentally praised herself for coming up with such a devious idea. Now, all she needed to do was to get someone to carry out her dirty work for her. Charlotte came out of the dressing room ten minutes after. She would have gotten out sooner if she had not ha
Sebastian unlocked the door and opened it. And there she was lying unconscious on the floor. His usually cold face became soft and filled with fear and concern seeing her in such a state. "Charlotte," Sebastian called as he rushed over to where she was lying and held her in his arms. Henry also rushed to his sister. His eyes widened in shock as soon as he saw the state she was in. 'This is not good!' He muttered under his breath. Being in such an enclosed space must have triggered a panic attack. He quickly brought out his phone and left the closet. "Charlotte please wake up," he begged as he shook her gently trying to get her to open her eyes. However, Charlotte didn't even stir let alone open her eyes. Sebastian quickly grabbed her hand and checked her pulse. It was really weak. "Shit!" Sebastian cursed. He turned back and looked at Henry who was on a phone call. "Her pulse is very weak," he informed. "Charlotte please open your eyes," he pleaded with desperation. He then to
“Is there a problem with that?” Sebastian asked when he saw the frown on Charlotte’s face. Why was she frowning? Wasn’t she supposed to be happy that he had stayed with her all night? “There was no need for you to stay with me. You should have just gone home,” Charlotte scolded. She hated being a burden to someone and that was one of the reasons she moved out of her family house. She didn’t want her family to go through the trouble of having to take care of her whenever she had a panic attack. Sebastian was someone who valued his time and plus she wasn’t an important person in his life. He only stayed with her out of compulsion and not because he wanted to and that in his world was a huge burden to him. “You were lying unconscious when I found you and brought you to the hospital. Did you really think I would leave you here and go home?” Sebastian asked, annoyance clearly evident in his voice. “You should have. I don’t want to hear any complaints from you later on saying I wast
Charlotte and Victoria arrived at the Gerano mansion an hour after they had left the hospital. They would have gotten home sooner if it wasn't for the media. They had somehow managed to find out the hospital she was treated at. They would have fallen straight into the hands of the reporters and paparazzi if it was not for Jonathan's timely intervention.He had stopped them before they could leave the hospital and directed them to the back entrance of the hospital and that was where they left. They were greeted at the entrance by Diana and some other helpers. "Is Sebastian at home?" Victoria asked. "No ma'am, sir hasn't come home yet," Diana answered. Victoria sighed and shook her head. It was already six o'clock and Sebastian had still not yet left the office. He worked way too much for someone who was the head of the company. She could only hope that he would stop this habit when he finally got married to Charlotte. "I'm sorry Sebastian isn't here to welcome you," She apolog
Sebastian came downstairs a few minutes later and just as he had instructed, Charlotte was already waiting for him at the dining table. "What are you doing?" he asked as he took his seat. She was still on her phone. "I'm reading what people are tweeting about the fashion show and about me losing consciousness," Charlotte answered and then looked back at her phone. "Why do you care about what people are saying about you?'' Sebastian asked. He was one who didn't care about what anyone thought of him. If he did, he wouldn't have made it so far in the business world. And so he didn't understand why Charlotte wanted to know what everyone was saying. "You see, unlike in your world the people's opinion of me matters a lot. If people hate me, then I won't last long in the industry. Which company would want to use someone who is hated by the public to advertise their products?'' Charlotte asked. "Oh,'' Sebastian commented. He didn't understand the entertainment industry and how it worke
Charlotte woke up late the next morning as she had slept really late last night. She checked the time and saw that it was twelve o'clock. 'Shit!' She cursed. It was no longer morning but afternoon. She checked her phone and saw that she had six missed calls from her mother and ten from Alexia.She wondered why they called her so early in the morning. She decided to call Alexia first so she could tell her why her mother was calling her. Alexia answered the call after a few rings. "Where the hell did you put your phone? Your mom has been trying to reach you," she said. "I was asleep when she was calling me. What's up? Why did she call me?" Charlotte asked curiously. "Well, she wanted to tell you that you and Sebastian should come over for dinner tonight but no worries she has already informed Sebastian," Alexia disclosed. "What?!" Charlotte exclaimed in horror. "Why would she invite Sebastian over for dinner? Doesn't she realize that it is a terrible idea for Sebastian and Henry to

Justin Alexander Gerano.This was the name of Charlotte and Sebastian's little boy. And just like his sister, he had his father’s blue eyes. He looked so much like Sebastian and this made Charlotte happy. And about who won the game between Danielle and Charlotte, the answer was that it was a draw. When Danielle went into labour, Charlotte became stressed out, especially when she heard that there was something wrong with Danielle, and that made her go into labour.And so, the two boys were born on the same day, around the same time. Austin Alexander Gerano was the name of Danielle and Diego’s son.He and Sebastian both decided to name their children after their father. It was their own little way of atoning for how they treated him all those years. Alexander was beyond pleased at their decision, and this made him cry. As for Isabella, she was thrilled to have two baby brothers. She would go to Justin as soon as she woke up, and she would stay with him throughout the day. This made
Sebastian paced outside his room nervously. The doctor had been in there for a while and each passing second was torture for him. He would have preferred for Charlotte to be taken to the hospital but she regained consciousness as they were on their way there and she vehemently refused to go there. They called the doctor and requested for him to treat her at home. He took her samples and sent them to the hospital. The result was delivered to the doctor about five minutes ago but Sebastian didn’t know what the report was and that drove him on edge. A hand on his shoulder made him turn around and he saw it was his father.“She’ll be fine,” Alexander said.The doctor came out of the room and all of the family members gathered around him. “Doctor, how is she?'' Sebastian asked.“She is fine, Mr Gerano,” the doctor answered and Sebastian heaved a sigh of relief as he felt the knot in his chest loosen. “You can see her now. She has something she wants to tell you after which it is very i
“Did you miss me?” Charlotte asked. Beside her stood Diego and Jonathan who had their guns pointed at Amy and the goon who held a gun to Sebastian's head respectively. Sebastian was not expecting to see them there but irregardless, he was happy that they managed to find him..He looked at Charlotte and she looked at him back. However, there was no warmth in her eyes, rather she looked at him coldly and with a murderous intent. “How did you find us?” Amy asked. She had still not recovered from her shock. “Well the mole told us where you were,” Charlotte answered. “Mole?” Amy repeated in confusion. “Yes, mole,” another voice said in the background. He walked up to them and Amy gasped when she saw who it was. “Hello Amy,” Jimmy greeted with a grin on his face. “What? Are you shocked to see me on their side?” he asked mockingly.“B-but y-you told me that y-you wanted revenge,” Amy stuttered as she was still trying to process the fact that her plan had failed all thanks to Jimmy who h
Charlotte slowly opened her eyes to let them adjust to the bright light. She groaned and sat up. She then looked around and saw that she was in her room, but how and when did she get there?It took a few moments for the memories of what had happened to return to Charlotte. ‘Sebastian, how dare you?!’ she exclaimed in anger. That asshole ordered Jonathan to drug her. Both of them would pay for doing that to her, but first, she needed to find him. Charlotte got down from the bed and headed downstairs. She didn’t meet a single helper on the way down, and that worried her as the mansion was always filled with helpers. What was going on?She saw Henry comforting a crying Alexia while the rest of her family had gloomy expressions on their faces. “What’s going on here?” she asked. They all turned and looked at her with pity, which made Charlotte worry the most as she could tell from their body language that something terrible had happened. “Where is Sebastian?” she inquired. None of the
Charlotte woke up when she heard the sound of a door closing. She sat up and saw that Sebastian had just come out of the bathroom. She glanced at the clock beside her bed and saw that it was already eleven o’clock. Damn! Sebastian had worked her up hard all night, not that she was complaining. “You’ve finally woken up,” Sebastian said. He walked up to her and kissed her on the forehead. “I feel sore,” Charlotte complained as she stood up. Of course, she was bound to feel sore, mainly due to the activities they did all night.She was ninety percent sure that Sebastian had gotten her pregnant last night. “Do you want me to take the soreness away,” Sebastian asked and kissed her neck while his hand went down her back. His action made Charlotte's breath get heavier, mainly due to the fact that she wasn’t wearing any clothes. Damn! This guy was a tempter. However, Charlotte refused to fall into his temptation. She gathered all of her strength and pushed him away. “We’re not doing it
“So, what did he say? Is he coming?” Charlotte asked as soon as Danielle was done speaking to Sebastian.“Of course he is. I told you it would work. He told me to make sure that you do not leave. He even gave me permission to use the guards to make sure you do not leave,” Danielle added. “So all we have to do is wait for him to get here,” Charlotte stated.“Yes and make sure you act convincing enough,'' Danielle reminded. Charlotte chuckled. “Of course, I will.” Twenty minutes later, one of the helpers, which Danielle had stationed at the entrance of the house to inform them when Sebastian arrived, came running upstairs. “Ma’am, sir has arrived.”Charlotte and Danielle immediately jumped down from the bed. “You can go now,” Charlotte instructed.“Are you ready?” Danielle asked.“Yes, I am. Now go to your position," Charlotte urged as she quickly grabbed the suitcase she had already packed her clothes in.“Good luck,” Danielle wished and left the room, locking the door behind her.
