The bright morning light beamed through the window, making Ruby squirm. She breathed heavily and rubbed her eyes. She felt like she had the best sleep of her life last night. She felt fresh and well slept. Suddenly, she sensed some weight on her body. She turned around only to see Luke sleeping next to her while one of his hands was under her neck and the other hand on her stomach. And his legs were tangled with her legs. Swallowing the saliva that was secreted in her throat, Ruby discreetly looked under the covers. "We did not have sex last night," Luke said while his eyes were still closed. Ruby got alerted and put the cover down and looked at him. "I did not ask it." Luke smirked, "But you checked the covers." Ruby frowned and huffed. She turned side ways and closed her eyes trying to avoid Luke. But it seemed like a worthless attempt because Luke rolled over and placed his hand on her waist and pulled her to him. He whispered into her ear, "Did yo

    Gia hummed happily as she opened her eyes to the bright morning. She stretched her arms. She felt her body was well spent. She rolled over to see the man next to her. To say that she was shocked would be an understatement. She was terrified and horrified would be the proper words to use. The man laying naked next to her was not Luke. She immediately felt tears forming inside her eyes. The man awoke to her sniffing sound. He got worried seeing her like this. “Hey, what happened? please don’t cry,” he tried to console her. He leaned forward to hold her but she quickly resisted and went backwards. She could not stop the tears flowing from her eyes.She immediately got off the couch and looked around for her clothes. The skirt and top were in a good condition but her underwear was completely torn. She wore the dress and was about to dash out of the room. But the man called for her, "Hey, wait

    "So, this is how much quote we are going to make, Mr Barnard," Samuel said the last word in his presentation. Luke had assigned him to a project that was making big companies crazy. Luke wanted to secure that project to his company. In the conference, Luke, and a few executives and the Barnard's oldest son, were seated. Since Luke knew the Barnard's oldest son as they went to the same university, he had taken the liberty to invite him for a meeting. And also Luke wanted to test Samuel's performance.Luke had a smile on his face as the meeting came to an end. He was kind of satisfied by the presentation. If he was on the other side of the project, then he would have definitely considered the quote. Luke turned to his left to see Barnard. He had no expression on his. Sensing Luke's gaze on him, Barnard turned to Luke and smiled. "The presentation was wonderful," he said. Luke raised his brows, "Does that mea

    At the college, Ruby is excited about going home soon after the first class. Luke was so supporting of her even when she said she would attend the first class just so the principal sees her. Ruby entered the classroom and looked at their usual spot. Mia was already seated there. Ruby smiled at her and went ahead and sat beside her best friend. "You are late," Mia says. Ruby nodded her head, "Yeah, I woke up late. And I barely managed to come to the college. I will go back home after the first class." Mia's face fell, "Oh.. what shall I do alone in the class without you?" Ruby giggled and said, "You also go home. I have been feeling nauseous a lot and feel sleepy all the time." Mia snorted, "Perks of being pregnant," Ruby faked a frown, "You get pregnant and then you will know about it." Mia shook her head with shock, "No ways. Babies are too much work. It will not suit me. I am a career woman." Ruby scoffed at those words. It is not like she was belit

    Next day morning, Samuel was in a good mood. To his surprise, Mr Barnard had sent in the contract earlier than he mentioned. Luke had gone to visit the Barnard’s to finalise the contract. Samuel came to Luke’s office assuming he had returned. He had to talk about the project and funds. He noticed Luke’s secretary and went to her, “Hey, has the boss come yet?” he asked expectantly. Madeleine looked up at him and smiled, “Not yet. Please be seated and wait for his arrival. If you have work, then I can call you when the boss arrives.” Samuel smirked at her, “I don’t think I have anything better to do. I could stand here and talk to you.” Madeleine clearly understood his intention of flirting. She had her doubts about this guy because he was the replacement for Mason Stevens’ spot. And he has already got a huge project to work on. She wondered if he is the guy that Anna has planted. Anna ha

    “Sir… why my age? Single or not?” Madeleine stuttered. She was shocked to hear those words from her boss. Luke chuckled realizing her dilemma, "I think I know a guy that might be suitable for you." Madeleine felt embarrassed for assuming things, "Sorry sir." "So what is your age? And single or not?" Luke asked as switched on his computer. And sent a quick text message to Leo, telling him that he is back in his office. "I am 25 and I am single. Have been single since I joined the company," she answered. Luke raised his brows, "Are you telling me now that the company caused your breakup?" Madeleine blinked her eyes and nodded her head simultaneously, "Yeah, kind of. The last guy I dated had ego issues. He could not digest the fact that I was working as the secretary to the CEO of the Sawyer corporation." Luke leaned into his hand on the desk, "So, I caused your

    Leo did not have any patience to stay back at work. He wanted to be alone. He looked for his team leader and asked, "Is it okay if I took the rest of the day off? I am not feeling well?" The poor team leader could not say anything. He did not want to get a rival out of Leo. "Yes, sure, that is fine, go ahead," he tone resembled a frightened person. Leo strode out of the office building. Why was no one helping him? When he reached his house, he did not even park his car properly. He threw the car keys at the watchman and went inside. He was behaving like an absolute spoiled brat. Anna, who was sitting in the living room while reading a magazine, saw her son. "Why are you back so early? Did you not have any work? Your brother seemed to have garnered one of the biggest projects of the year." She was delighted to receive the news from Samuel. He had done hi

    Luke drove inside the Sawyer estate as his father had asked for his presence. He did not know what was the matter."As expected," Anna commented, seeing Luke coming to the estate first thing in the morning. After she messed up with Leo's head, and his talk with his father, Leo had locked himself inside his room. And did not eat or talk with anyone. She found it to be childish but she was glad that her son was putting in some effort. And her comment about Luke's arrival was accurate. Since their childhood, whenever Leo puts up a tantrum, her husband would tell Luke to talk to him. It seems like the same case even now.Luke ignored Anna's comment and went to his father's study room. "You called me so early?" He said sitting in front of his father. "Your brother has gone crazy," David said, sighing. He barely caught up with some sleep last night. He was trying to

    Leo, Luke and their father came out of the study room. David invited Luke to have breakfast with them to which he happily agreed. Since he was showered and ready to go to work, he might as well eat here. He had already informed Ruby about having an early start of the day. At the dining table, everyone was present except for Gia. David took a seat in the center. Luke sat beside Leo and on the other side, Anna sat with Robert. It seemed like Robert had taken a liking to having an extended stay here."Where is Gia? Has she not woken up yet?" Leo asked his mother. Anna shook her head, "I have no idea where she is." She glanced at Luke to see if he gave any reaction to it. But it seemed like he was unwavered by the mention of her. She wondered if he does not know that Gia is one that he slept with that night? Or did Gia come home before he woke up?They began the br

    Ruby moaned out loudly while leaving heavy breaths, "Ah… Luke…"Luke seemed to be too immersed in kissing and sucking her neck. The young couple were now at their honeymoon destination. And Luke could not wait until they reached their hotel room. As soon as they got into the elevator, Luke let his inner desire take over him."Oh, Ruby, you are so beautiful," Luke said as his hand traced her waistline. He held her waist tightly and pulled her towards him. His hard dick touched her front.Ruby licked her lips, "You are so hard," she whispered.Luke leaned down and bit her lower lip, "You are the reason for it."The elevator dinged, making them aware that their floor had arrived.

    The two days from the day Alexander announced the wedding was a roller coaster ride for everyone. Orlando was busy arranging the wedding set up at the rose garden of the Sawyer Estate. Andrea took care of the catering service and menus. Gia and Mia helped Ruby find the right dress for the wedding. Although Gia was heavily pregnant and her baby would be born anytime soon. Gabriel and Leo took the responsibility of inviting the very important guests. David took care of things at the office. Alexander simply enjoyed the time with his great grandson, baby Alex. He was very much of a hands on great grandfather, who took baby Alex on morning strolls and fed him and played with him and napped with him.It was the wedding day morning and everyone at the Sawyer Estate was busy running around making last minute arrangements. As usual, Alexander was with his great grandson, baby Alex. "Now, little boy,

    Alexander had gathered everyone at the Sawyer Estate saying that he had something important to discuss. That one last matter he has to settle for everything to fall into its places. Gabriel was the last one to arrive at the estate. He seemed to be still in a hangover as the boys had partied last night. It has been four months since baby Alex was born. And the young parents had barely gotten time for themselves. So the boys and girls had divided into two groups and enjoyed themselves.Alexander made a disappointed noise in his tongue and shook his head after seeing Gabriel’s state. Gabriel looked up at Alexander with blinking eyes, “What is it, Grandpa Sawyer? Why have you gathered everyone first thing in the morning? Are you perhaps reading your will or something? If so, what are you giving me? I have worked so hard in the past one year like I have never worked in my life.”

    Ruby groaned and breathed heavily. She had been having concurrent contractions for the last fifteen minutes but she was trying her best to not freak out. She held the bedspread tightly and left out a heavy moan. Her voice was pretty loud this time and that woke Luke up. He turned around and saw her in distress, “Ruby! Ruby! Are you okay?” he asked anxiously.Ruby sighed and leaned her head back, shaking her head, “I can’t… It is paining Luke. I think the baby is ready to come out.” Luke immediately bent down and checked her dress to check if any water leaked and there it was. He moved upwards and faced Ruby, “Relax, Ok. So, your water has broken. We just have to reach the hospital now. I will wake up mom and dad. And also get the car ready and get you. Stay here and I will come back soon.”Luke jumped out of the

    "Your honor, my clients, Luke Sawyer, the CEO of the Sawyer Corporation and his fiancé, Ruby Bakers have accused Anna Cyprus and Robert Cyprus of money laundering from the his company and also the murder of Ruby's parents. So, we are here to debug the cases of Anna Cyprus and Robert Cyprus laundering money from the Sawyer Corporation for over 15 years and also their illegal drug shipment and selling cases. And the last charges for the murder of Christopher Bakers and Danielle Bakers."The opening statement sent chills to Anna and Robert. It was not because of the accusations regarding the money and drugs. But it was related to Ruby's parents. They were too dumb to realize that Ruby had the same last names as the people they murdered. And Robert on hand was way too dumber for leaving the newborn with a name, Ruby Bakers, and totally forgot about it for all these years.

    The loud siren sound echoed in the woods. And it was not that far away from Anna hearing it. She jolted awake as soon as she heard the siren sound. She knew this might happen at any time but she was not expecting it to be this right away. She surely had prepared herself with the help of all the top attorneys that Madeleine had brought. But it still scared the shit out of her to be facing it. She quickly jumped out of the bed and ran to take a quick shower and get ready. To Anna Cyprus, her looks mattered even when she was expecting to be taken for investigation.By the time Anna had a quick shower and got ready, there were multiple knocks and continuous door bell ringing. She gracefully climbed the stairs down and unlocked the door. On the other side of the door stood two cops, one of whom she recognized from the other day at the Sawyer Estate.“Yes?&rdqu

    “So, all the evidence is ready, right?” Gabriel asked as he and Luke and sat down for the conversation. Alexander, David, Andrea, Leo, Luke, Ruby and Gia, everyone were waiting for them to come home to discuss the final matter of this never ending saga of Anna Cyprus and Robert Cyprus.. “Yeah, everything is ready. But I feel like it would be lovely if we had some evidence for Christopher Bakers and Danielle Bakers case,” Luke said with disappointment. Anna and Robert would definitely get arrested and put behind the bars. But he also wanted them to get punished for what they had done for Ruby’s parents. “Don’t worry, My man, I have the solution for that. Madeleine is on the way here. Just you wait,” Gabriel said, grinning at his best friend. A white car enters the Sawyer Estate. What Anna failed to notice was that the car belongs to her son, Leo. He had

    Madeleine reached the secret mansion of Anna in the woods. As Anna had asked, Madeleine had collected the details of the top attorneys she knew. It was basically Luke’s connections. But he had allowed Madeleine to take them with her for Anna and also gave a secret mission for her. Madeleine was excited about the Sherlock job that was given by Luke. She could not wait to see the outcome of this lovely thriller show.A white car enters the Sawyer Estate. What Anna failed to notice was that the car belongs to her son, Leo. He had been to Lizzie’s house first thing in the morning to pick her up. She was shifting to the Sawyer Estate today. He halted the car at the entrance of the main door and got off the vehicle. Like a gentleman, he ran to the other side of the car and helped Lizzie get out of the car. “You are such a gentleman, Leo,” she said, smiling at him. Leo sheepishly smiled ba

    Ruby dragged Leo away from the main mansion while the others went inside. “So, what did you want to talk about?” Leo asked her with raised brows, curiously. Ruby sighed and wondered if she should ask or not. But decided to ask anyway or else she won’t be able to be at peace, “Have you known Lizzie from before?” Leo raised his brows and wondered why Ruby was interested in knowing about Lizzie, “What do you mean?” He pretended like he did not understand her question. He was very well versed in playing dumb. But would that work with Ruby as well? But he did give it a try. “Have you known Lizzie even before knowing her as our pregnancy class teacher?” Ruby repeated her question patiently. She was trying her best to not lose her temper. But this matter had been bugging her for a very long time. Leo decided to continue his dumb act. He shook his head as a no, “No, I don’t know her at all. It was you guys that introduced her first to me.” Ruby’s eye brows creased. She was expecting an answ
