Timothy paused, bent his head to the side as he thought about what he was about to say.

"Did Thomas go home with Nora?" Timothy asked.

"Yes, he did Mr. Crawford," Mrs. Chucks replied hurriedly.

"Then who was that?" Timothy asked as they walked down the stairs.

He had not seen the face of the women, but he had caught sight of the young boy who looked so much like Thomas.

"Hmm, that was a visiting student who came for the summer classes to prepare for the upcoming competition," Mrs. Chucks explained as they neared the entrance.

Pitts and Amber remained standing, uncertain about what to do.

"I see," Timothy muttered, and he stopped in front of the teachers.

"Yes, their parents came late; that was the reason they were on the premises till this hour," Mrs. Chucks quickly added.

"Okay," Mr. Crawford muttered.

Although he didn't like children staying late in the school, he had no interest in discussing it further.

Mike asked.Nathan looked up with his brows drawn together as he asked, "What time is it?""It's seven p.m. already," Mike replied."Oh, I lost track of time," Nathan said, pushing his seat back from the table."I thought so, too. Lucas is waiting downstairs with the car," Mike stated.Nathan looked out the window and saw the sun had set. Darkness was beginning to creep out."Thank you, Mike," Nathan said, forcing himself up."You're welcome.

    Brad looked up to see Noah run through the door, a panicked look on his face."What's wrong?" Noah asked, then turned to look at Ava and added, "What's wrong with her?""I'm sorry, but who are..." Brad started to ask"I don't know; I think you should check her," Bella said, interrupting Brad as she looked up at Noah.Noah looked up at Brad and said, "I'm Noah Bright; I'm a doctor. I just happened to be at the door when I heard Bella shout Ava's name."As he said that, he walked over to Ava, kneeling in front of her as he took her hands in his."Ava? Can you hear me? If you can just grip my hands," Noah said softly.Brad looked at Bella with raised brows in question about who Noah was."He is a friend," Bella whispered, her attention still on Ava.All Ava could see was the hospital lights as she murmured, "My baby.""What is she saying?" Bella asked."I can't make out her words," Noah replied, moving closer to her.Suddenly, Ava looked up as Brad's hair grazed her neck. Her brows drew

    “Parish… yes, that was her name, wasn’t it?” Rose murmured to herself, her eyes narrowing thoughtfully.Ava’s heart skipped a beat, her pulse quickening as an unsettling feeling settled over her. Rose had just mentioned her surname, but surely that could just be a coincidence. She glanced at Noah, and there was a softness in his eyes, so she stepped away from him.“Are you okay?” Noah asked softly.“I’m so sorry,” the nurse who bumped into Ava shouted before hurrying along.“You look just like her, you know,” Rose added.“Ahh... Rose, I think you should get back to work; don’t want to keep you while work piles up,” Noah said with a smile and placed a hand on her shoulder. He turned her in the other direction and added, “See you around.”“See you around too, Dr. Noah,” Rose said, then looked toward Ava and waved. “Bye.”Ava smiled nervously and waved back. “Bye.”“Come, sorry about that,” Noah said to Ava as he led her to his office.“Thank you,” Ava murmured and followed him.

    “What’s wrong?” Mike asked, his lips moving but his voice barely audible.“Grandpa? What are you talking about?” Nathan demanded, his voice tense. He paused, listening closely to whatever his grandfather was saying on the other end, his eyes narrowing.“We should talk about this in person, Grandpa. I’ll be home shortly,” he said, trying to keep his tone steady.After another tense minute, he finally ended the call, the weight of the conversation heavy on his face.“Damn it!” Nathan shouted, frustration echoing through the hallway.A few people in the building turned to glance awkwardly at Nathan’s outburst, their curious eyes just adding to his irritation.“Everything alright?” Mike asked again, his concern more evident this time.Nathan’s jaw tightened, his reply dripping with scepticism, “Do I look or sound like everything’s okay?”Mike, knowing Nathan wasn’t looking for an answer, stayed silent.Instead, he asked, “What do you want me to do?”Nathan brushed a hand through his hair,

    The house was quiet, and Nathan had a feeling his grandfather must have retired to his room already. Despite the thought, he knocked softly on the door.“Grandpa?” he called, his voice barely above a whisper.“You’re late. I was right, after all; you’re too relaxed because you don’t take this seriously,” said a voice behind him.Nathan turned to see Tyler approaching, his usual smirk on his face as he approached with a mischievous look in his eyes.“What did you tell him, Tyler?” Nathan demanded, his voice low, fists clenched at his sides.Tyler shrugged unbothered as he replied, “Just the truth.”“What truth?” Nathan spat, his anger rising as he took a step towards him adding, “We both know all you ever do is lie.”Tyler chuckled, a satisfied grin on his face as he responded, “Lower your voice, brother. You don’t want your son to hear you getting worked up over nothing, do you?”Nathan turned away from him, opening the door to his grandfather’s study, and confirmed his suspicion of i

    Timothy was silent for a moment, staring into space.“Your what, Grandpa?” Nathan asked, his shoulders slumping.He knew this was all a plan from Tyler, but he couldn’t help feeling angered that his grandfather would so easily believe him.“I reserve the right to give the corporation to whomever I choose, and that includes both you and Tyler. He has an equal right to the corporation too,” Timothy stated.“What?” Nathan stated, before adding, “We both know that’s not true.”“I will give this corporation to whoever I deem fit. From now on, Tyler is going to be a priority, especially since you seem determined to make him look bad. I won’t tolerate any games from you just so you can take it all for yourself,” Timothy continued, not bothered by Nathan’s outburst.Nathan’s face hardened, his fists clenching at his sides as he stared at his grandfather.“So you’re not even interested in finding out if what he told you was true,” Nathan muttered.“No. All I want is for you both to work things

    A few minutes later, Nathan headed out of the house and climbed into his car that was already waiting for him.“Good morning Mr. Crawford,” Lucas said with a warm smile."Good morning, you have a warehouse tour with the Klass Technology team today. Shall we head there first?" Mike asked as Nathan slid into the car."I thought the head of operations was handling that," Nathan replied."Yes, but you also mentioned you'd let me know if you decided to go," Mike said, gently reminding him.Nathan glanced at his watch. "What else is scheduled this morning?""Ella requested a meeting with you at your usual place," Mike answered."And after that?""Just some paperwork at the office," Mike said.The mention of paperwork brought back memories of his grandfather's recent conversation—one he’d rather keep at the back of his mind."Alright, let’s head to the factory. I can spare a few minutes before the meeting with Ella," Nathan decided.Mike nodded, signalling Lucas to drive to the factory.The

    "Mr. Crawford?" Emilio called out as soon as he spotted Nathan.Nathan looked up and offered a smile, though his mind was still on Mr. Bills’ last statement."We can discuss it later," Mr. Bills murmured quietly before adding, "You’ve got clients to attend to."Nathan nodded, then approached the group, a warm smile on his face."Mr. Emilio," he greeted warmly, extending his hand."Mr. Crawford, I didn’t realize you were here," Emilio replied, shaking his hand."Yes, I didn't want to interrupt.

    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?"

    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,

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
