Lucas had been skeptical about Daphne's new idea of putting him on the market again, but she was persistent. He decided that there would be no harm in taking the chance after all.

The first woman on Daphne's long list was a lady that was called Samantha. He had forgiven her tardiness but when she started talking about her father and how he would find her lifestyle if she wanted. As he looked at her, he could not help but see Clara in her. This was the way Clara had bragged before they started dating. At this point, he wondered what had blinded him from knowing the kind of person that she was before he fell helplessly in love with her.

Emilia was the second person on the list and she had called his pair of footwear cheap because he had decided on some slides as they were to meet up at a park. He knew that her Hermes scarf was fake but he decided that he would not say anything to her about it. Her jaw dropped when she saw his convertible sports car after she had tongue-lashed him the en

    Scarlett was dumbfounded at first and she did not say anything to Alex who knelt before her with a ring in a box in his hand."What is this?" She asked him, a bit shocked. Alex was not discouraged at all. He knew that it might be overwhelming for her and he understood how she felt."Ever since the first day I set my eyes on you in the gas station, I've fallen helplessly in love with you," he said to her. Scarlett was hearing this for the first time and she was stunned. Something was not right, but she could not place her fingers on it. It confused her instead."What gas station?" She asked him a bit perplexed. Alex suddenly realized what he had said to her, and he wondered why he had not filtered his words this time. He had been seeking ways to ensure that she did not leave him, but she was already sensing that something was amiss."Did we know each other before my accident?" She asked him. Alex did not say anything. He could not consider meeting her a few minutes just before she was

    Alex did not resist. He had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time. He had not been too forward with her, even though he had longed to be with her. He had decided to hold his horses until she was ready.He was not sure who she had spoken to or what had gotten into her but her lips on his could not let him think at all. He soon took over and captured her lips in his with everything in him and kissed her passionately.He lifted her and took her in his arms as he headed upstairs to his bedroom. He pinned her against the wall immediately after he got in, and when she slid her hands between them and reached for his hardness, he groaned in excitement and let down his pants immediately with one hand in a swift movement. With the other hand, he slid two fingers into her, and she gasped in excitement.She had not seen him in that light, and seeing this wild side of Alex was fascinating for her. The way he was precise and yet gentle was what moved her. She had not had this experience

    Scarlett was standing by the kitchen counter with a beer in her hand when Alex chimed into the house. Immediately his eyes met hers, there was an apologetic look on his face. He looked at her finger but he did not seem surprised that she had taken off his ring. He could not say that she could not do so, especially after what she saw on his computer. She had hung up abruptly when she saw the wedding photos, and he knew that she was pissed."Dinner is served," she said as she pointed to a covered plate of food on the counter before she started to head upstairs. He followed after her immediately, but she would not look back."You don't have my ring on your finger," he began when they got to her bedroom. She avoided going into his, even if she had left a few things there from last night."Well, I would not want to take what is not mine," she said to him as she picked up a blow dryer that she did not need to use. She just needed something to distract herself from speaking to him. She stil

    Daphne decided to pay Lucas a surprise visit. She was almost done with her program and would soon graduate with flying colors and get that dream job she had always wanted.She had submitted a few resumes to some prestigious firms, and about two of them had reserved a job for her.Lucas had always told her that she could come to work for him in his company, but she had always declined. It was not that she did not qualify for a job in his company, but she needed to be independent of him. She knew her brother and how demanding he could be, especially to his employees. She would not want nepotistic treatment from him either.When she got to the house from the airport, Lucas was at home. It was a Tuesday and he always worked from home. He was indeed surprised to see her, and when they embraced, she noticed immediately that he had not had a bath."How many days have you been in this study?" She asked him as she narrowed her eyebrows. "Well, today makes it the second day," he replied. "Calla

    Hilda had reluctantly agreed to a date with Lucas. She had felt bad about how he had left her in the lurch the last time. When she had seen his call, she was surprised at first, then there was a feeling that she needed to hear what he had to say.She had sat at the restaurant for a complete ten minutes and was thinking about leaving before Lucas walked in, looking as breathtaking as ever. She glued herself to the seat immediately as she looked at the fine man, clad in a blue suit with his hair drawn back in a smooth curl.He looked around as he scanned the restaurant for her, and when his gaze met hers, he broke into a smile and walked toward her. She stood up instinctively, and when he got to where she was before they shared an embrace. He held onto her longer than usual and she wanted to bask in his embrace. It was warm and it seemed to evaporate all the harsh feelings she had toward him."I'm sorry for your time. I was putting together details of a meeting I was supposed to have to

    Scarlett had mixed feelings about attending the event for the company. She had come up with a plan to only make the meals and send her staff to attend the event, but Alex was not having it."You need to be there so they know that you are committed to your contract with them," he said."I don't think my presence would make any difference," she blurted out. "These people just want to eat, and eat they will while I get paid," she added in a bit of annoyance. It did not go unnoticed.Alex moved closer to her and held her by the shoulders as he looked into her eyes."Is there a reason why you do not want to be there?" He asked her in the calmest tone he could muster.Scarlett shifted from him and turned around. Ever since the night of the meeting when she had anticipated seeing Lucas, she had been a bit annoyed because she wanted to remember so much that it was frustrating that she had never gotten to meet him.On two occasions, she had tried to be in contact with him, but he would not sho

    "Scarlett," Lucas called out as he approached her, taking the bulls by the horn, despite Alex's presence. She did not turn around for the first ten seconds. She stood still as she felt like she knew that voice. It rang a bell in her memory. She turned around to see the face that had the voice.She soon felt dizzy all of a sudden as what seemed like sparks of electricity ran through her brain and dots were soon connected. Just by merely looking at his face, the memories were fuzzy at first. He drew closer to her and she looked up at him."Scarlett," he called out to her again. He noticed that she was having a hard time recalling just at first glance. If she remembered who she was after the gunshot, she would have been with him. She had his phone lines and his house address at her fingertips.He did not mind that Alex was there. He was focused on getting what was his. He placed a finger on her jaw and lifted her face so she could look at him. Their eyes met but she still held a hint o

    Scarlett rolled her eyes as she turned around and headed towards the exit. Alex followed suit. Lucas snatched his arm from Hilda and went after her immediately."Scarlett!" He called out to her, making heads turn in his direction. He did not care at all as he sped off after her. She was about to get into the car that Alex had opened up for her before Lucas reached out and held her arm, turning her around forcefully."You're hurting me," she shrieked as she snatched her arm from him and massaged lightly. "Leave me alone," she said as she turned around to enter the car again. He shut it close."Just give me a chance to explain," he said. "It's not what you think," he added. Alex intervened just then. He had been quiet for a while now. "She said you should leave her alone," Alex said as he came to stand in between them, giving her the chance to get into the car. "You're in my way," Lucas said sternly to Alex, but the young man did not budge. The cameras were on them and it prevented hi

    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

    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
