Scarlett regained her stance, and she quickly flung a dress over her body, picked up her phone, and left the room. She closed the door slowly to avoid waking the kids.

At the doorway, she picked up one of the car keys. There were ten of them, and she did not know which key belonged to which car. She wished she had paid more attention at that point.

She pressed the key and the car in question opened up for her. She slid in immediately and rode to the hospital.

Her heart pounded in a silent prayer, as she hoped that Lucas was not dead. The hospital had just called him. He had been involved in a ghastly motor accident on his way to the office, and she was told that he was in critical condition.

She could not believe how helpless she was at the moment. He was like her covering, and hearing this news seemed to strip her of that. "Nothing will happen to you Lucas," she muttered as drove, tears welling up in her eyes.

The hospital was in disarray when she got in. Everyone was either attendi

    Scarlett turned around to meet the eyes of the most beautiful woman that she had ever met, with a face that seemed very familiar. She soon came to recognition. This face was on popular magazine covers, and it was only in her dreams that she ever thought of seeing her in real life. She had a smile on her face that made her lips curl a little. Her eyes were bold and lined properly. Her nose looked like it was sculptured in a lab and her hair flowed down to her waist. She was beautiful and elegant at the same time. She reeked of wealth and class, and Scarlett knew that she would have a hard time fitting in."What are you doing here, Clara?" Lucas asked.Clara!Scarlett called her name over and over in her head. It was almost unbelievable. The woman who stood before her was gorgeous. She was tall, and her slim well-toned frame did justice to the small dress she had on. She looked graceful in a pair of low heels that she did not need.Clara's eyes flew to Scarlett instead and a small laugh

    Scarlett knew that if she had to be with Lucas, and if she loved him as she truly claimed to, then she had to be ready to fight with him despite what came her way.Lucas was one of the most powerful men in the state, and even the government recognized him. She accompanied him to some of his meetings when the presence of his spouse was required, and she saw the type of people he dined with. She never thought that she would get to associate with them in her entire existence. He took her to galas and dinners that were meant for the high and mighty in the state. Some were nice to her, but others, mostly the women were mean to her, as though she had stolen something from them. Lucas was no doubt, the trophy, and she had won it.It was not long before she began to see her face in the news, announcing her as Lucas' fiancee. The man had not even proposed yet. The first day he had seen the paper, she was with him."You know you don't have to propose if you don't have to, right?" She said to h

    "I miss the kids so much", Scarlett began as they undressed in the beach house. The resort that Lucas had brought her to was mind-blowing, and she was sure to bask in the moment. She looked up, and he was not listening to her. He was outside and on a call. Her mood turned sour immediately.She went outside immediately, but before she could speak further, the nanny called her and she smiled. She knew that it was the kids. She answered immediately, and Claire's brilliant face appeared on the screen."Mommy," she squealed. "My baby," Scarlett replied. She could not deny that she missed them already. Callan was playing a game and would not want to get distracted. "We miss you so much," she said as she shoved a spoonful of cereal into her mouth.Lucas came in just then, and he proceeded to kiss her. She shoved him off playfully but he resisted. He still stuck to her, and would not let go. "Whoever it is, I want them to know that I have you all to myself now," he said as he captured her lip

    Scarlett was excited to kick off her culinary school program. Lucas had advised against it giving her pregnant state, but she would not hear of it."I'm pregnant, not sick," she would try to reassure him, but he would not heed anything she said. He wanted her to be catered for every minute of the day.He had gotten her a new car to congratulate her for conceiving, even if she had told him that she never learned how to drive. Daphne had come visiting when she heard the news and the most excited of them all were the twins."Are we going to have a boy or a girl?" Claire would ask. It always made her laugh. They were happy nonetheless that they would have a younger brother or sister.When she suggested that she wanted to go to culinary school, Lucas was not too happy about it."You can always go when you are delivered of the baby," he said to her as she sat across him in the study."So much time would have passed," she replied to him.

She had startled Danielle with the way she had dashed out of class and deep within her, she wished that the children were safe.Her phone beeped again and it was a message from Lucas.Come home immediately. The kids are here.She jumped for joy as she read his message. She entered her car immediately and headed home. She dashed into the house and there were her children, seated in the dining with lunch before them."Mummy!" They said in unison as they rushed to hug her. They seemed oddly terrified and she could not help but notice."What happened?" She asked them as she released them from her tight embrace. "An aunty came to pick us up from school today," Claire answered."And do

    Scarlett woke up and touched Lucas' side of the bed, but it was empty. She needed help getting out of bed. It had been such a rollercoaster of emotions for her since Clara came back, and Lucas seemed to be entertaining her excesses.She finally managed to get out of bed and slid a jacket over her slim frame. It barely covered her already bulging tummy. She knew that the kids were already off to school, and she had told Danielle that she would not make it to the culinary school because she had a doctor's appointment later in the day.As she approached Lucas' study, she could hear muffled voices as though he was speaking to someone. She waited by the door and eavesdropped so she would know who it was. She could not believe her ears at the sudden realization. She looked at her phone. It was barely 8 am, and Clara was already at the house.She pressed her ears to the door. "I just want to be close to the kids," she heard Clara say. Lucas did not say anything for a while, and there was a b

    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

    "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

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
