Both of them consumed aged cheese in addition to crackers for the cheese course.The final course, known as mignardise, consisted of bite-sized macarons, and the dessert was a lemon creme brulé served alongside a dry white wine."I'm done!." Laura groaned and leaned on the chair. Her face was a little red due to the spiciness of the meal and the hotness. "Even though it's supposed to be for both of us, I could barely finish this meal. I'm so full." Laura patted her bulging stomach with a smug expression on her face."It's important for you to go outside and walk, Mom, so you can properly digest your meal. If you don't do something soon, the image of yourself as lean and fit that you want to maintain in front of your friends will be ruined." Regina sipped her sorbet."Are you cursing your mother to become very chubby?." "There's nothing wrong with being on the plump side, mom. It will accentuate the curves that you already have." The chubby girls are Regina's favourite. She has consu
"Why are you willing to betray our friendship for a simple woman who means nothing to you?" "I don't understand why you would do something like that." Scarlett was left speechless as she listened to Hudson's words. Hudson became so shaken by the presence that emanated from Scarlett that he was unable to continue his description of the two of them having a close friendship as he went on and on about how they had known each other for so long."Hudson, not only has your office not changed, but you have not changed a bit in terms of your personality either. It appears that my assumption that you would have become more human as a result of everything that you have been through and the amount of time that has passed is incorrect." The tone of Scarlett's voice was emotionless and icy. Hudson was so shaken by the chill that she exuded from her eyes that he became immobile in his chair."It's fortunate that you tied the knot with Laura because she is the person who complements you the most giv
"Hudson, I don't know what to do in this situation! You are responsible for finding a solution for me. Please don't give her any reason to report me to the authorities; I can't afford to go to jail. That woman who looked down her nose at my daughter is the only person who should be held accountable, and she should! Who is she to think Scarlett is going to back her up anyway? Who the hell could she possibly be!" "You have only one option left at this point, which is to go talk to Scarlett and request that she bring the evidences to you personally. Simply put, you should do everything in your power to prevent her from turning you in to the authorities, because if she does, then it will be game over for all of us." The table was almost cracked as a result of Hudson's powerful blow. He was so angry that his chest was heaving up and down. Outrage at the fact that Scarlett desired for Laura to spend time behind bars."I was never surprised to learn that Scarlett resented me because of my s
"Trivial? You are saying that it is not important that an innocent person was put in jail and that another innocent person came dangerously close to being killed simply because your daughter wants to marry my son. Do you realize that the more you talk, Laura, the more I want to kill you? I can't stand the sound of your voice. Do you still keep in mind the genuine version of myself? I'm sorry, Laura, but I haven't mellowed down one bit, I'm just waiting for the moment that I'll have to use my fists. Be careful what you say, and get out of my house. You need only wait for the trial; once it's over, you'll be sent to jail." After uttering these words, Scarlett confidently entered her home.Laura shook violently, as if she were a leaf that was being blown away by the wind. She had used up all of her remaining strength by standing till Scarlett entered the house and was unable to maintain her balance, so she collapsed to the ground. "I can't believe I have forgotten about Scarlett's person
The judge played the tape, and everyone in the room could see that the body shape of the suspect was exactly the same as Esme's, and that the two of them even bore a passing resemblance to one another.When the Plaintiff had finished presenting all of the evidence that he had planned to present, the judge turned to Esme."Do you admit to the charges that have been brought against you, or do you deny them?""I am not guilty of what I am being accused of." "Is that correct? If so, could you elaborate on your supporting evidence?"Attorney Sharla walked to the back of the room, retrieved a few brown envelopes, and opened them up. They were handed over to the judge by her."On the fifth of December, my customer was actually absent from the home. She was doing everything in her power to ensure that the information that was going about regarding her family and her new found sibling was explained thoroughly. My client got up and out of the house by ten in the morning and drove straight to t
"Do you remember when I said that I wanted to end my working life? It was at that particular time. Instead of retiring, I was taken hostage by an unknown party. I have no idea why. I am aware that Esme Verte had nothing to do with my being taken hostage; however, I was ultimately put to use for this objective.""So what you're saying is that you were abducted a long time before this particular event took place. And you believe that the person who captured you made the decision to use you for this purpose even though it was not in your original plan?""That was a good summary of what I just said, but yes, that is what I believe." The model provided a response."What does the fact that you were high on drugs have to do with what you were required to do?""During the time that I was being held captive, I received an injection of Ritalin in a dosage that was unknown to me. The person who took me captive was responsible for ensuring that she had complete control over me at all times. If yo
Regina and Laura were panicking. They watched the news and saw that they had been implicated, never in Regina's wildest dreams would she think that Scarlett ratted them out. Since it turned out like this, it must mean that Esme must have done something to her. "Aunty Scarlett must have been bewitched. Mommy, do something! I can't let Izayah go."Laura was shaking, she also couldn't believe what was happening. "We have to get out of here," she said to Regina."What? Are you saying that we should run away? If we run away then what is going to happen to my marriage with Izayah? I can't let that girl have him!." Regina yelled, her eyes wide and red. She can't lose to that girl , she absolutely can't!Regina's heart was pounding in her chest as she stared at her mother. She couldn't believe what she were suggesting. Running away? If they did that, then Izayah would be free to marry someone else. And Regina couldn't allow that to happen. She wouldn't lose to some other girl. She loved Izay
"You have been cooped up in your room for such a long time, don't you believe that something should eat! I made sufficient food for you." Leah promptly told Esme after she had come out of her room."I'm entirely hungry at the present time. I didn't eat well at the police headquarters." Esme stomach protested in concurrence with her words."Come on. Your father, Zeke and Rielle are waiting for you in the sitting room. Izayah additionally dropped by again before however you were sleeping. He said you ought to call him when you awaken." Leah handed-off the data to Esme who gestured."I'll do that when I'm finished with eating." Esme replied to Leah's words. She got to the sitting room and then, all eyes were on her. "What? Is there something on my face?." Esme touched her face to feel if she magically grew a mole or something. "There's nothing on your face. It's just that you look a little gaunt and thin. We need to feed you more so you can have more weight. Zeke could easily carry you
