"Hurry up." Mark Logan got in the car, leaned on the window, and called Mark. Mark got into the car, fastened his seat belt, and said, "I don't care about the snail soup you refused to share with me but...""I know you don't care about that bowl of soup, you are a generous person, drive quickly." Before he could finish speaking, Mark Logan interrupted him and praised him for being a generous person.Mark was overjoyed when he heard this. He nodded, "I like to hear this. I'm quite generous. Next time, next time I'll treat you to chicken soup." While talking, he started the car and sent Mark Logan there.In the afternoon, Arielle and Kendra Colson worked together. It was still Kendra Colson who came to Arielle with the information. She is really a person with a very good temperament. Generally, as long as she is a client, she will put up some notes. After all, it is you who make other people's money, and they must be the bigger person, but Kendra Carlson will not. Arielle said that she
The two went shopping from 4:00 p.m. to 10:00 pm for a full six hours. Arielle helped her choose headwear, clothes, and jewelry, as well as cosmetics and skin care products, and then they ate together again. I was a little unfamiliar and polite before, but this afternoon's shopping has brought the relationship between the two people a lot closer. I have to say that shopping can really shorten the distance between the two women. Before leaving, Kendra Calson took Arielle's hand and said. "Arielle, you are the first friend I have made since I married in this city for ten years." Arielle just smiled and felt a little uncomfortable. She used to be a sincere person, but now she wants to take advantage of others. She said silently in her heart, "Kendra Calson, I'm sorry!" When she returned home at night, she saw that Lucas was already at home, not in the hospital.Anabel was sitting next to him and handing him fruit, "Dad, eat a piece of mango, it's very sweet.""I won’t eat." It was rare
Two days later, Kendra Calson's husband will come back. Arielle reported to the company in the morning, clocked in, and after finishing the day's work, she took a taxi to Kendra Calson's house.She originally thought that Colson Calvin was so rich that he would definitely buy a villa to live in. Even if there was no villa, he would at least live in a big house, right? But what she didn't expect was that Kendra Calson's house was actually just a two-bedroom, one-bedroom house, a new community, with a rather remote location. Arielle came to the door with a basket of fruits. When she arrived, Kendra Calson was still cooking, with her hair tied up loosely, wearing a high-neck bottoming shirt, a pair of wide-leg pants, and an apron on her body. When she came to open the door, she still had the spatula in her hand.Seeing that it was Arielle, she smiled and said, "Wait for me, I still have two dishes, one soup, the soup will be simmered in the pot later, and the dishes will be ready in a wh
Arielle, who was sitting in the car, kept thinking that Kendra Calson should have almost collapsed now. She said that she would not commit suicide. Then three years later, what did she encounter that made her choose to jump off the building? For the next few days, Arielle never saw Kendra Calson again, but she kept following her. She lives as normal as if nothing had happened. Colson Calvin did come back three days later, and Kendra Calson greeted him as before, wearing the simplest clothes and no makeup. She didn't ask him why he didn't come back when he clearly said he would come back that day. However, Colson Calvin explained to her, "Casandra fell ill that day, so I changed the date." A very simple sentence made Kendra Calson feel like a needle was stuck in her heart.After spending the night with Kendra Calson, Arielle suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. She originally planned to dig Kendra Calson over and help her manage the company clothing line, but now she suddenly feels a
Arielle had no words to say. He didn't mention anything about Anabel's visit just now. After the two happily finished their meal, Leonard Grey said, "Let's go." Arielle didn't know where he was going to take her. Anyway, she followed him. There was a two-and-a-half-hour lunch break, and it only took them forty minutes to eat, and there was still more than an hour left. She thought about following him around, just to relieve her mood, but she never imagined that he would actually take her to the hotel. She murmured to him, "What are we doing here?""Book a room." Leonard Grey answered truthfully. Walking to the door, Arielle heard such an answer, she would not go in life or death. Leonard Grey asked her, "What's wrong?"Arielle said, "We… although we had done it once, but it was just an accident, and there will be no next time." Leonard Grey suddenly laughed softly, stretched out his hand, and flicked on her forehead, "What are you thinking? It's just that you didn't sleep well last
“‘Ýes, just wanted to feel the water on my body” Leonard Grey walked up to her and handed her a glass of juice, they both of them stayed in the pool area chatting which areille soon dooz off barely after a few minutes of being out. Tiredness was written all over her body, Leonard knew she was tired but not how much. He gently picked up the little lady and carried her to the bed, she looked so innocent in her sleep. He wished she would open up and let him help her, he wanted so badly to be the man she came back home to, every woman just wants a rich husband to rely on but that was not the case with Arielle, she wanted to be herself, be a woman respected by all not for the man she marries but on her efforts. Leonard let her sleep for a long time and did not wake her up with her break was over, Anabel can stay out for more hours but not arielle.Arielle opened her eyes, slowly, her body felt but she could feel she had been sleeping for a very long time, she reached out for her phone whi
Anable quickly understood what her mother meant, it would be good for them if Areille would leave the mansion and it would be better if she was not on good terms with Sir Lucas. Anabel thought for a while and looked at her mother intensely. “‘Even if we get her married and ship her off to her husband's house, how do we take care of grandfather so he doesnt think about her again? We need him on our side Mother and you know he treats areille better than me.”’ Claudia thought for a while, she knew the old man wanted everything to go to areille despite him taking Anabel as part of the family, he still did not treat her as precious as he treated areille. “If I can marry your father, then we won't have to get parental control and supervision from him, I will be in control of everything and can make legal decisions on behalf of areille.”’ Anabel knew her mother was sneaky but she never expected her to be that vicious. Äreille and Leonard Grey had a quiet dinner, she ate to her satisfactio
Sir Lucas left for the backyard, it was late but he was determined to see Mr Lambad. Mary told him to have a seat while she went to get the old man, Mr. Lambad was not comfortable with the idea Lucas had come to see him so late into the night. He knew him better than anyone else, his son was not only desperate but a man who wouldn't come see his father without having something to gain from it. He stopped in his tracks carefully studying his son who was passing around the area like a lost puppy. “‘Can't I have some good sleep in my own house? Why are you here so late in the night?”’ Sir Lucas turned to face the unpleasing complaint of his father. “‘I know it is late, at that because of the urgency of the matter. I want to have a good talk with you”’ Sir Lucas pulled out a seat and ushered his father to do the same. The old man sat down, his ears were eager to hear what had brought him to his quarters so late into the night. “‘Father, I know we have talked about this in the past but i
EPILOGUE. It's been months since the death of Sir Lucas, while everything he had was sold and dropped into the bank of Anabel, Arielle made sure to tell Claudia her last wish was fulfilled. It's been exactly 3 months and things have been going smoothly. Lovert was doing much better and had long moved in with Arielle. The company Daniel did him so much good, they were best buddies. Arielle runs into the bathroom for the 4th time this morning throwing up yet again. Leonard patted her on the back to ease her pain. She had been like this for a couple of days and despite her pleas not to take her to the hospital, Leonard was done with her stubbornness. He handed her a glass of water. Within 5 days he had lost so much weight and looked too fragile. Arielle did not want to go in order not to make Lovert worry. He was so protective of her reason why she avoided him and only met during dinner. ‘’Gai, please help arielle get ready, while I get the car’’ Leonard walks out before she can prot
“‘Mr. Lovert Greek Garn, Cowell, you are here under arrest for the murder of Lucas Cowell, we advise you to remain silent for anything you say or do would be used against you in a court of law, you have the right to an attorney and if you can't afford one, one would be appointed for you’’ Arielle watched as the dirty cop placed Lovert under arrest. He did not resist arrest, he was in so much shock. He had been in his sister's embrace and was pulled away by the cop. ‘’Little girl, I would advise you to get him a good lawyer, because even with it, I doubt he would be able to see the light of day. Just when they were about to drag out of the building, Leonard noticed the commotion and ran right through the crowd. The press had not gained access. While paparazzi were fun to sneak in, they all knew better than to interfere. It was the Cowell family, but it directly involved the Grey household. Guards of the Grey family were stationed all over the property. While the doctors and all othe
Peace was gradually returning to their lives. Lovert has been staying in the Cowell mansion ever since the death of Grandpa Lambad. He felt living there would bring him close to his mother and also the grandfather he did not get the chance to meet. Due to the recent outbreak of cold fever, He has been extremely busy and the paparazzi did not make things easy for him. He spoke to his big sister every day despite how busy his schedule became. He was more than proud of her, she was declared the 2nd wealthiest after Leonard Grey. indeed they deserved each other, a queen and a king. Lovert got home late, his shift had extended more than he had hoped. He so much wished he could stop by and enjoy dinner with Areille but by the time he was done with work, it was way past midnight. He was too tired to drive, so he called for a cap. The drive home was rather long. He had fallen asleep, the cab driver was the one to wake him up. Lovert was barely awake as he walked his way to Arielle’s room.
The company was doing even better. Arielle walked in as everyone greeted her, she was now the CEO. while Arnold could not help but sneer, it did not border her. With the scandal Anabel had brought yet again, shares were auctioned and thanks to her wonderful husband, all of it was acquired. Now she was the sole owner, just like the Grey empire. Lovert did not want to get involved in the business. The board meeting was set and ready to begin. “We have gone through so much change within a short period and I must congratulate everyone for their hard work and patience. We have been on our feet to do what's best for the company and so far we are winning. Today, I would like to announce the new general manager, Mrs. Kendra Colson’’ Kendra stood up and greeted everyone. So many had not taken notice of her presence before the presentation, while those who did shrug it off as a partner. Arnold was fuming, he knew this day would come now that everything was out in the open. ‘’What about the
The Cowell family was in another dimension of problems. After the press release, Claudia has not been able to get her husband to believe she was innocent. She had to disown her child to prove to him how sincere she was. Grandfather Lambad stayed up all night with Mr Greekgarn. The Greek Garn family would still have Lovert as their heir and his name would not be changed but only the Cowell name could be added. It was a great change since they had nothing against them, the Cowel family accepted. It was their son, he was their blood, however, he was not theirs to keep, they were the ones who had thrown him away from the beginning. Mr Lambad could not sleep, the noise coming from the front made it impossible. Grace helped him out of his quarters to the front, Lucas sat on the couch while his tramp for a wife was on her knees begging for god knows what. ‘’Why can't the both of you keep it down? You can't handle keeping peace at home how do you expect to raise a decent daughter?’’ Mr Lam
The Grey home was in a mess, while some staff got fired due to their involvement, others learned a good lesson. The Matter of the boss was not something to interfere with. Gai made the bed for Arielle, she had very little to eat and has not rested ever since Anabel walked out. Lovert was by her side. He was not willing to leave his sister all alone yet again for the second time. Leonard had some house conflicts to settle. In years, it was the very first time the Grey household was meeting, from uncles to cousins and nieces. Leonard was more than pleased to accommodate them while Uncle Mathew had returned purposely for the gathering. Everyone was seated, and they all looked up to one man, Leonard was now the head of the family, despite his age difference, he was now the leader by birth and right. “Today's event was very unexpected and we are concerned about the outcome of events. To say the very least the matron of the family position has only been held for a couple of days and now w
Arielle took all she had, walking down the highway, nothing made sense at this point. Her design for a competition she has been waiting for, for the longest time, just received an email telling her she has been disqualified. Her draft and that of Arielle’s was found and without a second thought, she knew it was coming. She had freely handed over her shares to Arielle, now her account was empty. She had nothing. Claire won't take her calls neither did the father of her baby. A waves a cap down, she could only head to the vacation house, Edward had gotten for the both of them. There were no guards, the building had been private from the very start. Anabel unlocked the door walking in on Edward. She never would have thought of seeing him here at such a time. Did she come here because he missed her, her heart warming up at the thought of him being there for her? To live in their memories. ‘’You shouldn't have come, why did you do this to me, Anabel, how hard have you been trying?’’ Ana
Everyone stared at the photos, it was intimate but not as Anabel had emphasized. ‘’Oh come on, now that's the best lie I have gotten so far, brother? We both know Arielle has no siblings besides me. She had no other biological sibling and I am the only one closer to that gap so how do you explain it? My mother had no son for our father”’ Anabel laughed like a maniac, all hope was lost, she had nothing left. Her mother has been trying over hours to reason with her father on the terms of her returning home with them, but he has been adamant about his decision not to want her. If she was to go down, then she might as well go down with everyone. She was not the only one at fault and it was time to make everyone see that. ‘’Sir Lucas, your wife bore a son before her death, the baby was said to be dead, and you never saw its body. How sure are you that the child died at birth?” Leonard turned to Sir Lucas who was now staring at Arielle strangely. He knew just how much she hated him for t
Arielle had no idea of where Leonard was taking her, while Lovert, Daniel, and Mark drove in the opposite direction of the city, they were riding towards the hotel they had met the very first day. Arielle could not hide the smile on her face. She had not been around this part of the city ever since their night together. After pulling into the driveway, he opened the door for her. ‘’Wanna come inside”’ he extends his hands to help her. They walked inside and the front desk clerk recognized them. She had met a good number of one-night stands, but Arielle stood out, she looked so unprepared on her day, she was covered in love bites and they had to bring her new clothes as hers was in no shape to be worn for another time.Arielle had not taken notice of the room number, but she did remember her way back and they were heading the same way. Just like the very time they had met Arielle walked into the room acting all drunk and woozy. Leonard quickly picked up on the act and in no time the
