"From the look on your face, I'm assuming you know about this," Peter said, his eyes narrowed.

"I am just... fi…" Nathan tried to explain, but his father cut him off.

"Why would you do that? Why?" Peter asked, looking disappointed.

"Dad, if you listen to me, I will explain it all. I'm as surprised as you are too," Nathan replied, spreading his hand in frustration.

"Now your grandfather is back; isn't that all you wanted? If anything happens to him, it's going to be on you, Nathan," Peter said.

Before Nathan could reply, Peter turned and walked out of the room, leaving Nathan standing there confused.

"What just happened?" Nathan muttered to himself as he stared at the door.

Mike walked back into the office, looking as confused as Nathan.

"What's wrong?" Mike asked.

"I have no idea," Nathan replied, slliding down into his seat as he added, "I think it has something to do with the missing files."

"How did he find out? You just found out yourself, and that is because you asked for it," Mi

Let's not forget to come up with textile ideas for our different prototypes; it will save us a lot of time," Bella announed looking at Daphne's retreating team with a rasid brow at Mick, who just shrugged.There were several nods in the room, signaling an understanding of what Bella was saying."Okay, so Mick will hand out some documents to you as we wrap up," Bella continued."Will the next meeting be here because it's not stated in the timetable, seeing as we've been changing locations?" Someone said from the middle, a sign of Pride Fashion on her shirt."Uhmm, thank you for that question, Mirable; by the next meeting we would communicate a permanent location that we would be using going forward; apologies for the stress," Mick said, ad

    Nathan's body became rigid at Nora's statement. His heart was pounding as he was taken back in time to that night."Nora, come out of there and meet me at the La Cuisine," Nathan mumbled into the phone."No, Nathan, come here if you want to dine with me," Nora replied stubbornly."F*ck," Nathan muttered, rubbing his temple to rub of an oncoming headache."It's been how many years, Nathan? Please come here; this place holds a lot of memories for us. Why do you insist on not coming?" Nora asked, her voice sounding low through the phone."Nora I don't want to talk about it," Nathan muttered."Nathan?" Mike called, looking at Nathan with concern.Nathan raised a finger, signaling for him to be given a minute. Mike nodded and stepped into the car."That's what you say every time. I know this has something to do with Ava," Nora replied, not backing down."I thought the whole essence of this was for us to make amends? Why are you trying to get on my fr*king nerves, Nora?"

    Nathan and Nora looked up to see Tyler and a new lady standing behind them. An amused look on his face at the look of frustration on Nora's."What are you doing, Tyler?" Nathan asked."Isn't' that obvious, to eat, of course?" Tyler replied with a grin."Then get yourself a table and leave us alone," Nora replied, adding, "I see it's a new face again today.""Oh, Silver, meet Nora, my sister-in-law, and my brother, Nathan," Tyler introduced."Hello, nice to meet you." Silver replied with a warm smile as she added, "You look so alike, almost like twins.""Yeah, everyone says that; I guess we've got our dad to thank for that," Tyler replied with a grin."Here's your table, sir." A waiter said to Tyler, pointing at the table beside Nathan's."Oh wow, what a coincidence," Tyler muttered, feigning surprise.Nathan turned to Nora and asked, "Do you want to leave now?""Oh, don't leave because of me; I very much want to be a part of your last discussion."

    The hand that gripped her was firm, and it felt almost familiar that Ava quickly looked up.“This is becoming a habit,” Elliot said with a smile as he held her.Nathan’s eyes were glued to the sight before him, and for a split second, he felt a shift inside. It was not anger, but the sight made him feel off.“Thank you,” Ava said, steading herself as he pulled her up.“Elliot? You didn’t say you were coming over,” Mick said, looking surprised.“Yes, I know. I just thought I’d come over to have the steak and go; I figured you guys must have left already,” Elliot replied, his arm still on Ava’s waist."We were just on our way out," Bella interjected."Okay, that's fine," Elliot replied with a smile, then said to Ava, "You should watch where you go.""I will thank you," Ava replied.As Elliot looked up, his eyes caught Nathan sitting at the center of the restaurant, with Tyler's table right beside him."Nathan?"

    "Okay, hunnie, I'll be home soon." Ava said, smiling sweetly, her eyes locked on Nathan's as she spoke.Nathan stood there watching her as she ended the call before he said, "I don't want you near the house or my grandfather, if you really do mean what you just said."Ava didn't bother to give him an answer before she opened the car door and climbed into it."What did you say?" Bella asked as soon as Ava got into the car."Nothing," Ava replied."From the look on his face, I don't think that's true," Bella replied, adding, "He just stormed off.""I know, and I don't care," Ava replied."I knew your smiling face meant trouble," Bella stated."Not if everyone stays in their lane. I don't know why he keeps thinking I came back because of him," Ava said, still sounding angry."Why would he think that?" Bella asked."What? Stay away from his family? I never planned to come anywhere close in the first place," Ava muttered."Do you need a punching bag?" Bella asked."His face would have been

    Emily walked into the house, looking totally exhausted, dragging her feet."Where have you been? Didn't the meeting finish a few hours ago?" Amelia asked as Emily dropped into one of the seats."Yes, it did; where's dad?" Emily asked."He is upstairs in his study," Amelia replied."Okay," Emily muttered."What's wrong?" Amelia asked."It's nothing, but we've got a lot to do; we might have to get one of the designers from the other day," Emily explained."What designers?" Charles asked, coming down the stairs."The ones who came to the store the other day, Dad." Emily replied, adding, "Every fashion house and store had been tasked to produce a prototype for the design that portrays the project concept.""Really," Amelia asked."Yes, mom, but the issue is we do not have any designers," Emily replied."This is why I was against the idea of using external designers for the inspection the last time," Amelia said, shaking her head."What do we do now, Dad? We definitely can't tell them we d

Clara asked, her face contoured with anger.A housekeeper walked to the door and pulled it open."Hello, good evening, sir," they heard the housekeeper say.They all heard the footstep walk through the door, and when they finally saw who it was, they were surprised."Mr. Kim? What are you doing here?" Peter asked."I'm here for Mr. Crawford," Kim replied, holding his briefcase tightly."What do you have to discuss so late? Didn't you see him at the office already?" Clara asked in suspicion.Not interested in whatever it was Kim had to say, Nathan walked up the stairs, leaving them alone."He summoned me himself," Kim replied."Do you have another news you want to break to us?" Tyler asked."I'm afraid if there's any news at all, Mr. Crawford would let you know," Kim replied, his voice clipped."As always," Tyler muttered, shaking his head at the unwavering devotion of Kim to his grandfather."Come with me, and I'll show you his s

    Daphne turned to look at Nathan, her brows raised as she asked, "What question?""Would you mind if we took it away from here? It's quite important." Nathan stated."If it's important, I guess it can wait a few more minutes," Daphne stated, turning to face Elliot.Nathan was not surprised by her response, putting into consideration the fact that she was currently really pissed at Elliot."Could you guys give us a minute? We will join you all shortly," Elliot stated, taking Daphne by the hand and walking out of the building.Elliot walked a few feet to the right of the building before turning into a corner. Only then did he let go of Daphne's hand."For god's sake, what the f*ck did you just pull in there?" Elliot asked, totally pissed."Nothing less than the reaction you are supposed to get when you don't consult me before making some certain decision." Daphne shot back at him.Her eyes were hardened, almost blazing with fire as she tried to stare Elliot down.Elliot brushed his left

    Nathan stood up and walked a few feet away from the table before turning back to face Elliot."I need to speak with your designer," Nathan stated.Elliot was silent for a few seconds, unsure what Nathan was trying to imply."Okay, would you care to explain? Because I'm aware you already have a designer for your project," Elliot responded."I can't really go into specifics right now," Nathan stated."Okay, who specifically do you want to speak with?" Elliot asked, adding, "Bella or some other fashion house designer, who I know you can meet on your own without coming to me.""I can't explain anything for sure right now; I need to speak with your major partner," Nathan stated."Okay, hold on, what exactly is going on? You don't sound like your usual self," Elliot said, his eyes squinting in concern before adding, "Does this have to do with your grandfather?"Nathan's head snapped to Elliot in surprise at his words."What?

    "Dad, what do we do?" Emily asked her father.The embarrassment of the day before had been weighing heavily on her mind."What else can we do? She is practically untouchable right now," Amelia stated.Emily raised her eyebrows, an angry look crossing her face as she responded, "Says who, Mom?" She is going to pay for this; I swear she will. How high can she rise again?""Enough, the both of you! We need to come up with a plan," her father snapped at them, his brow furrowed in thought."I really don't think we should go against Ava anymore; she is no longer the girl we used to know. What if she decided to come make us pay for what we did to her all those years ago?" Amelia asked in concern."She won't, because I won't let her," Emily stated firmly."Shut up! Nobody is making anyone pay; we need to find a way to get into her good books right now," Charles stated.Emily's hand clenched into a fist beside her at her father's words."Why do we need to do that?" Emily shot at her father."W

    Nathan's eyes narrowed, his hand clenching into a fist, as his jaw tightened.His voice was cold and sharp as he responded, "I have no idea what Tyler is talking about.""I don't think we should do this here," Peter interjected, looking between Timothy and Nathan."I agree," Mike stated, a nervous look coming to his face."Shut the f*ck up; you don't have a say here," Tyler responded to Mike."It's not going to be much of a problem if Tyler just tells us what he knows," Wyat said with a satisfied grin."I don't want that," Peter snapped, shutting Wyatt up."We will have this conversation at the office tomorrow then," Timothy stated, signaling for someone in the crowd."That would be better; we can't have everyone staring at us for having a family spat right now," Peter added."Okay, if that would be all, I guess we are done here, right?" Nathan stated, looking at everyone before adding, "Good night."He walked away from the group and headed to the entrance. Mike followed him closely,

    "Hello ma'am, nice to meet you," The staff greeted Ava.Their faces were filled with pleasure at meeting their new CEO. Oliver and Mr. Clark were walking her through the various departments in the building."Thank you all for the good work over the years. I hope to have a splendid time working here with you all," Ava responded with a smile.As they left the office, Ava looked at Oliver and asked, "How many offices do we have to go to?""Not much; I think it's just the human resource department and IT department," Oliver replied."Okay," Ava muttered as they entered an elevator at the end of the hall."After the introductions, we would be heading to your office on the last floor," Mr. Clark interjected."Okay, and what is the last floor?" Ava asked curiously.Mr. Clark only grinned at her and kept mute as Oliver tried not to laugh beside them."What?"

    "Really? Who is it?" Someone asked from the group.All eyes were glued to Mick, expecting his answer, wishing it was their own design that won."The winner for the design submission is," Mick replied."I have something to say before that," Daphne stated coldly.Her voice cut through the excitement like a sword as she stood up to face the crowd.Mick turned to look at her, noticing her expression for the first time."Hmm, of course," Mick muttered, stepping aside for her."So, the winner announcement would be put on hold for now," Daphne stated.There were silent murmurs as everyone looked confused, glancing from her to Mick."Okay, hold on, why? Mick just mentioned that he has the winner's name with him." Bella stated.Daphne turned towards her, her gaze freezing as she turned her icy stare at her."I see no reason why I should give you a response here; if Elliot is not around, I'm as good as being in charge."

    "Don't you think we need to go see them at the school?" Bella asked as she packed her bag."Stop running!" Ava shouted to Jenna, who was running after Angel up the stairs."Come on, buddy, the competition is going to happen eventually. Okay, I'm sure they probably have a reason for shifting it forward," Brad said, patting Jordan on the back."I don't think there is any point in going; Nora was probably just messing with me when she called," Ava replied with a shrug."Why would she do that?" Bella asked."If I know her, which I kind of do, she is just trying to rub it in my face," Ava muttered."Well, I guess the joke is on her now, Ms. CEO," Brad teased.Ava smiled, moving over to Jordan as Brad stood up to head out the door."I'll see you guys later," Brad called over his shoulder."Bye, Dad!"

    For a few seconds, Nora struggled to find the words with which to respond to Tyler."Didn't mean to get you all scared, you know, just saying how bad it's going to look if Nathan finds out what happened in LA," Tyler muttered."You wouldn't dare!" Nora replied, her voice low and hardened as her eyes darted around the room, a flicker of tension betraying her tough behavior."Oh, you should worry about yourself; I just might tell him when you least expect it. That's why they say karma's a b*tch," Tyler responded, folding his hand on his chest."Then I bet you, you're going to lose all you ever hold dear; hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, Tyler. Thomas is going to get acknowledged as Nathan's heir, and then you're going to be worthless like you are meant to be," Nora spat at him in disdain.The smile on Tyler's face faded away as he took three steps closer to Nora, pushing back against a couch.Tyler leaned close, his lips to her ear as he whispered, "Oh, I would like to see you tr
