Scarlett decided that it would be a good option for the entire crew to return to Santorini. She had cut short their trip the last time, and when she suggested it this time, Alex was in full support.

They sent out invitations and made arrangements. Scarlett added George and Daniella to the list and after the entire planning, it looked so promising.

Daphne and Nick arrived the night before the trip.

"Left for me, I would have suggested that you both went on your honeymoon alone but since you want us in it as well, I can't decline," Daphne said as she settled in Scarlett's room.

They had agreed that Daphne would spend the night with Scarlett while Nick and his brother would share a room as well.

"Let's just say I wanted to do it as compensation for cutting short the trip the other time, and we all deserve a break from the cruel life we have gotten over," Scarlett said.

"That reminds me," Daphne said as she took out her makeup from the dresser with some wipes. "What did Lucas say to yo

hated the ending. Lucas had been through so much all for her to choose Alex? Alex lied to her about her from the beginning.....

when you think you know how the story goes, you're wrong. All characters are flawed and the story is always in the gray zone. All the lead loved too much and made their own mistakes, but it's what made the story more interesting. I felt the FL's struggle as both ML were designed to be hated & loved.

Absolutely hated the ending. She chose the guy who had lied to her from the start and he even knew her real first name. She was wearing a wedding ring so he knew she was married. He doesn’t love her, he only loves himself. Would not recommend this book because it is so full of illogical storylines.

    "Scarlett, help! Save me l've been molested at the club!"The desperate and helpless sound of her best friend's voice was the only thing Scarlett Barnes's though of the moment she rushed over to the clubhouse."Room 304!"Scarlett looked up at the number plate on the door of the private room. It was the same room number that her best friend, Courtney Seymour, had texted her. Without a second thought, she barged through the door to save her friend.When the door swung open under her hand, she was greeted by the darkness within. Suddenly, a strong hand clasped around her wrist and dragged her into the dark room, followed by a loud thud as the door slammed shut."Hey—who are you, and what do you want?!" Scarlett shrieked, her eyes darting around wildly as she tried to make out her surroundings.More confusion aroused in her, as the only thing she could make out of the room was thick darkness.The windows were shut tight giving no room for a single ray of light."Settle down, and I'll tr

    Scarlett stood on the balcony of her small apartment, her twenty four weeks belly protruding from her fitted top. The cool evening breeze blew across her exposed shoulders, sending shivers down her spine. She closed her eyes, relishing in the serenity of the moment as she leaned against the railing.She sighed heavily as she gazed at the distance, she could see families retiring into their home for the night and then her Emerald green eye gleamed visualizing how happy she would have been with her dad.Nostalgia set in and she practically remembered the day she was chased out of the house by her once-loving father. Her step sister had set her up and the same person had stolen the affection of her dad.Scarlett had made one mistake, but no one was available to plead on her behalf that her presence in the household remains.The pain of being dragged out of her father's house came running in and it warranted a tear to fall from her cheeks.She sniffed her nose, looked into the heavens and

    Two years passed…Scarlett bolted upright in bed gasping for breath, she couldn't have a clear vision of her nightmare, but all the physical effects of the dream reflected on her.Her skin was sticky with sweat, her heart was pounding hard against her chest, and the palpable tension between her thighs.The confused Scarlett merely took time to notice the conspicuous changes but a part of her yet felt at peace.Her eyes flickered in a short while, as she recalled receiving a mail in the night but was too drowsy to check."Oh my God! I must have forgotten!" She dashed towards her laptop, and checked her most current mail, only to realize the fast rate at which her heart resumed beating.The mail had stated posting her for a job at Lucas Maxwell's home, opening her browser for further investigation, she realized her soon-to-be boss was the CEO of Leonard, a multi-billion dollar, biotech company.The article painted him to be a badass, but also a genius who uses his pain to bring his comp

    Scarlett's mouth dropped, and her eyes widened. She needed no one to tell her, her eyes were reddened, and her tear watered.She felt as though her feet froze and she was struck right in the chest with a dagger."Lucas!" Daphne admonished."I said I do not want her, and that's final!" Lucas blurted and turned towards the door for an exit with both hands In his pocket.Followed by a sigh, Daphne shot Scarlett an apologetic look. "Please Scarlett, I'll be back."Right there in the study, Scarlett was still frozen, she felt as though life had been taken out of her. Above all her rejections, she could tell this is the first time she felt lifeless after being rejected.Instantly, Scarlett prayed the ground splits and she falls into it. She had her fist tightened as she thought. The jerk didn't bother taking a second glance at her, before the dismissal.Who the hell did he think he was? She howled inwardly. From the study room where she was, she could hear the muffling sound of Lucas's argu

    THE NEXT DAY…Scarlett was hurt to her bones, but there was nothing anyone could do about those words.Every single moment, she tried to forget it, but the words kept returning.Lucas had treated her like she was never a human, and had no emotions.However, in the meantime, she hoped to bear with it by avoiding Lucas in her days of working for the Maxwells.Scarlett had always loved children, and the day she met with the twins, something within her had bonded with them like they were hers."That's the only reason I'm accepting this job!" She angrily arranged her clothes into her box.Yet, she couldn't help but feel a mix of excitement and nervousness. She had always been independent and had never lived with anyone since the day she was chased out.In a short while, Scarlett was done packing, she struggled with the two big bags as she went towards the park for a cab."You must be strong." Scarlett told herself as they drove to Maxwell's spacious suburban home, Scarlett couldn't help

    The next morning came in a blink of an eye. Scarlett didn't want to bump into Lucas, and at the same time, she wanted to go for the kids as early as possible.However, she remembered his cruel words and resolved to stay back for a while.At 7:00 am, Daphne knocked on her door and said. "You can come out now Scarlett, he just left."Scarlette's cheeks flushed red as she never expected Daphne to have easily read through her mind.As quick as she could, she hurried over to the kids' room and got them prepared for school as fast as she could.She ensured she prepared their meals according to their favorites as directed by Daphne.In a short while, the kids were off to school. Scarlett then returned to the kitchen to have her breakfast after some encouraging words from Daphne.Daphne soon requested that she headed back to her room to get some work done. It was still a wonder that she did not work in Lucas's company. She had mentioned one time that she did not want her personal life and fin

    Lucas' eyes fell to the shattered glass on the floor, and his heart broke into a thousand pieces. That was his most cherished work of art, not because he had spent a fortune to have a glass painting of a nude woman, but because it was his wife.It stood at the end of the corridor, so he would look at it before he retired for the night, and first thing in the morning when he stepped out of his room to begin his busy day.His wife cherished the painting just the same way he did. It was the only thing that still reminded him of her, and what she looked like.At first, he had shot Scarlett a ferocious look, but as he drew closer to the shattered painting, his eyes softened.Scarlett saw something glint in his eyes, something that looked like a tear, as he crumpled to the ground and rummaged through the shattered glass as though he had suddenly run mad.She felt sorry for him immediately as he knelt there. Lucas was a well-muscled large man, and seeing him this way, she felt entirely remors

    Lucas stared at Scarlett and the kids for a long five minutes, and he could barely have words to describe how peaceful they looked in their sleep.He had been worried about his kids the whole night. He knew how much they were scared of the thunderstorm, and Daphne could barely keep her eyes open at the first drop of rain.For the first time since she started work, he was grateful that she was there, and the children felt so at peace with her. He watched them snuggle up to her, and it warmed his heart.When Scarlett looked up at him, he quickly looked away, but it was already too late to feign anger. She sat up with a start, and it almost made him chuckle. She was so intimidated by him, and he liked it so much. He did not like her one bit and did not want her to feel relaxed around him."I thought I said no contact with my kids," he said to her in an upset, but somewhat calm tone.Maybe if you stayed at home with them last night, they would not have to be curled up in my bed.Scarlett s

    "If it's not the bride," Daphne began excitedly as she opened up the door and barged into the room where Scarlett was ready to get into her wedding dress."Daphne!" Scarlett called out as she went ahead to hug her best friend. "I thought you were not going to come anymore," she added. "Of course, you know that I will not miss your big day for anything," Daphne said. She had been a bit incapacitated the whole time of the preparations, because of the pregnancy and Nick had insisted that she stayed back and allowed the doctor to attend to her. Daniella had managed to squeeze out time out of her busy schedule and away from George who seemed obsessed with her every day. She saw the way they had their pictures all over social media, and they were equally successful chefs."Is Lucas coming?" Scarlett asked."I tried to talk to him, but he said he does not want to be here," Daphne replied."But he has signed the divorce papers already, right?" Scarlett asked. "I don't like the way he is ma

    Scarlett stopped by Alex's house on her way back from a contract job. The hospital incident had taken a toll on everyone, especially Alex. He had gone into hiding, away from his house and away from his office.When his parents finally decided to give him space, they went back to Singapore along with Nick and Daphne. They all had no idea that the incident would take a toll on him that much, and Scarlett seemed to think that he was overreacting, but she could not help but think that it was all her fault.She had finally gone to Africa for the contract, but every day, she kept thinking about Alex. Raymond had urged her to enjoy herself and do her job well, but she could not help it. She called him and sent him messages every day, but he would not answer or reply. She had made a call to his housekeeper who told her the exact time he usually came back to the house. She had told him that Alex now had empty beer and whiskey bottles in his study. Scarlett knew that he was not a drunk. He ba

    "What do you mean you would not carry out the procedure anymore?" Alex raged as he followed the doctor out of the surgical ward, alerting his family members.They rushed out immediately to see what was going on."Doctor Ezra, you have to give me a good explanation for all of these," he continued. The doctor stopped and turned around to face him."I think Scarlett and your mother would have a better explanation for this," he said. "I think that my work here is done," he added and walked away.Alex turned to his mother, not knowing what to expect."What is he talking about?" He asked her. His mother fidgeted a little before she finally looked up at him. "Scarlett would be in a better position to explain things to you," she said. "Can you all just stop pointing fingers and tell me what is going on?" He asked. His mother was silent. His father and Nick were as lost as he was as they were still trying to fathom what was going on, but grateful in their hearts that Alex was still alive.

    Alex stepped out of the ward and his father stood up immediately after he saw him. They stood and looked at each other for a while. There was no disappointed scowl on his face to suggest that he was angry. Instead, a beautiful smile was plastered to his face. He stretched out his hands just like he would do every day after work when they were little boys. Alex rushed at his father and engaged him in a big embrace. His father patted his back gently and Alex relaxed slowly. They soon sat down at a corner and his mother came to join them."Would you want anything to eat?" She asked her husband who looked up at her with a smile."Alex teaches us every day how to love," he said to her. "Our boy is so brave," he added as he smiled at her. "I don't want to be reminded further that my son is about to have his heart out and given to someone else," she said. "Where is Nick and Daphne?" Alex asked. He had not seen them since he came out. Just Lucas sat there with his face buried in his hand

    "Time for what exactly?" Lucas asked when he saw that he was the only person that did not know what was being discussed. Doctor Ezra looked back at him, but did not say anything to him, but turned around and left. Lady Abbott looked at her son Alex and tears welled up in her eyes. She went ahead to engage him in a long embrace. "Can someone tell me what is going on here?" Lucas asked again, spreading out his hands and looking around. "In case you have not noticed, Alex has decided to donate the heart for Scarlett's transplant," Daphne said to him. Lucas has become such a pain in the ass and she was equally getting irritated."What is that supposed to mean?" Alex asked with an amused expression. Daphne looked at him unbelievably. He ignored her and moved to where Alex was standing."You think that you are the hero, right?" He asked Alex. "You went behind my back to see the doctor and agree to the transplant?" He continued. "I simply did what had to be done," Alex said."But you d

    Alex rushed at her immediately while Nick picked up his phone immediately to call for help. Lucas turned on his phone too so he could make a quick call to Doctor Ezra about her current situation.If there was a right time to put aside their differences and work together, it had to be now. Nick looked at Daphne as he spoke to the pilot on the phone. He saw how she was visibly trembling and he knew she was highly terrified.He went over to where she was and put a hand around her in a comforting manner, rubbing her back gently in circles so she would calm down.Once she was calm, he held her close to him. "I am sorry about this but remember the doctor said panicking will increase your blood pressure, and it's not good for the baby," he said to her. She nodded and turned around to hug him.The medical team soon arrived with a travel bus and they collected an unconscious Scarlett immediately."I called Doctor Ezra and he said we need to bring her in immediately," Lucas said as they all fi

    Scarlett stretched out her hand and touched him lightly. She watched him try to put himself together properly before he turned around with a big feigned smile on his face."What are you doing out here?" He asked her calmly. "You know it's cold out here," he added.She rolled her eyes. She was tired of everyone knowing what was good for her and what was not. It was all driving her nuts and she wished that they would all just give her a break. It irritated her more because he seemed to be having his struggles but was still looking out for her like she was a priority."Why were you crying?" She asked him. He looked up at her sharply."I was not crying. I just have a cold and it has given me a runny nose, but—""Oh don't lie to me," Scarlett cautioned him. "I know what I heard."He was silent for a while as he avoided her eyes. Thoughts of what he would say to her rummaged through his mind. An idea soon occurred to him."It's about my company," he finally said. "I think we might be runni

    "What did you say to her in there?" Nick asked as he took Daphne back to where they were seated initially. "Maybe if you had not rushed in there like we were planning your murder, I would have had the chance to have even a normal conversation with her," Daphne said, sounding agitated."At the end of the day, Scarlett might probably start to request answers from you guys," she continued. "You are all doing a bad job at keeping a secret," she added. Just then, Scarlett passed by and went to take her seat. "Is everything okay?" She asked Lucas. "You all came to the restroom," she added in case they had not understood why she asked."We just wanted to make sure that you were doing great," Alex was the one that answered. He stood up afterward and headed out. If he had to lie to Scarlett one more time, he might as well end up spilling the beans.He had to walk away to prevent himself from saying anything. Nick excused himself and followed after his brother. They got into another compartm
