" You're kidding me right?" Briella glared at her father. She was supposed to come to her sister's wedding and take the next available flight back to Los Angeles . End of story. So why the hell was her father telling her a different story at 2 am in the morning and threatening to disown her and collapse her business? " So because Princess Sage doesn't want her man again, I am expected to have her sloppy seconds else I get disowned, lose my inheritance, that's if I have any by the way, and have my business collapse? Why? Why can't I make my own choices?! What the hell did I ever do to you?!" she yelled. " My word is final. You'd better go get ready." Mr. Scott-Roberts said walking out. Briella sat on her bed feeling dizzy at once. This wasn't what she bargained for. I Why did the wicked witch of the west want to ruin her life? Hadn't she done enough?

Kendrick's mansion was much bigger and more luxurious from the inside. She fell in love with the interior decor as soon as she entered the house. Their wedding and reception were over and so everyone had left to their homes and she had no idea where her “husband" was at the moment. Her luggage was being sent to her room as she decided to give herself a tour of the house though she didn't have a clue of where she was going.About a few minutes later, she noticed she was lost in the mansion with no one to help since they were busily preparing her room and unpacking her stuff. She had gotten a new wardrobe since all her things were back in Los Angeles, California while she was currently in Las Vegas, NV.Briella was a music lover so as soon as she spotted a piano, she immediately sat down to play one of her favorites. She was engrossed in the music that she didn't recognize footsteps not feel that someone stood behind her.Ah, the power and be

"Alyssa?" Briella called out to the maid as she descended the stairs. She looked all over the house for her husband, but he was nowhere to be found."Ma'am?" The maid greeted her at the bottom of the stairs."Where the hell is my husband?" she yelled."I thought he told you already," Alyssa shrugged."What did you say to me? If he had said something to me, I wouldn't have been screaming your name, would I?" Her patience had run out."He had gone away for a month and would return in a month "Alyssa added."Okay, please assist me in packing my belongings. I have a flight to catch "She directed her walking to her room."But, ma'am—"No buts, Alyssa, no buts," she said as the maid followed her to her room. She only needed a few clothes because the rest of her belongings were in Los Angeles. She knew Alyssa was trying to stop her from leaving, but that meeting was too important to miss."Do you really need to go?" the m

" And I would be joining in on all meetings online, I'd drop by once in a while to monitor progress," Briella added." We hope to have another branch of our company down in Las Vegas," one of her people suggested."It's underway, I just need to make some plans towards that and hopefully we would have one down in Las Vegas in no time," she answered." Any other business?" she opened the floor." Who do we report to since you may not be around to answer our questions?" Another question was thrown towards her." We have people who are assigned to that. If it's beyond them the MD is ever present to answer and if that's beyond him as well, that's when I come in. And please, it should be relevant questions and important as well, if it's just the basic inquiries, your head of departments is eligible to answer those questions. So actually, the first point of contact is your HoD, then if it's above him that's when the MD comes in. It should follow that orde

" Alyssa, that was so--- Drick? I thought your meeting didn't end till Friday?" she entered hugging him and pecking him on his lips which took him aback." I just got back and today is Friday." he corrected watching her amusedly. But what really caught his attention was the dress she was wearing. She was wearing a striped patchwork blouse paired with jeans bum shorts and a pair of heels then a Maison Michel straw logo plaque hat. She looked ravishing." Had anything to eat yet?" she asked just as Alyssa descended the staircase." Nope, Alyssa was about fixing me something to eat," he responded." Dont bother Aly, please take my suitcase upstairs for me I'd take care of lunch today," Briella walked past him with a smirk on her face. What most people didn't know was that she loved cooking, she never hired a cook but just a maid to help with cleaning and other things except cooking. That was her favorite thing to do aside from being a boss lady.

" I know you wanted her, and not me but please I just don't do it in front of me," Briella said walking out of his bathroom with a short towel around her beautiful body frame. The hot water in her room wasn't working so she decided to use the bathroom in her husband's room. She heard him when he came into the room but decided to remain quiet without letting him know about her presence." What were you doing in there?" he asked becoming defensive." I came to take a shower Kendrick, it's not as if I killed someone or stole something. I work to earn my own money," she replied waiting for an answer." Yeah, I thought so too." she walked to her room. Ever since he got back from his trip he had been acting too suspicious and as if she was in his personal space.Briella changed into something warm but sexy, packed a duffel bag, and left the house without telling anyone. She needed to cool off and wrap her head over what was going on. The only place she th

Briella stood in the kitchen wearing a black hot back bondage hollow lace silk sling night dress preparing breakfast for herself and her husband. Alyssa was amazed to see her boss in the kitchen after they had looked everywhere for her the previous night." Are you going to stand there or would you like to help?" Briella broke Alyssa from her daze." Um- so-- good morning Ma-- I--mean Brie." she fumbled with her words making Briella laugh. Kendrick noticed his wife's bedroom door was unlocked. He poked his head inside to see if anyone was there. Her bed looked as if someone had slept in it even though it had been laid.He shrugged it off and headed to the kitchen to get some water to drink. He came back from his morning run not too long ago. Briella had heard him when he came back, that was when she headed to the kitchen to make breakfast while he freshened up for work.Kendrick stood in front of the kitchen door with his mouth hung open, shocked.

Briella descended the staircase in her white suit. She had held her hair in a tight ponytail. She had a meeting with one of her potential investors since Kendrick failed to keep to his promise she had to do it herself. She had written countless letters and proposals to the numerous airlines in Las Vegas, but to no avail.When she got a call from one of the airlines she sent her proposal to, she was ecstatic. She was tired of staying and doing nothing while her husband went to work and doing god-knows-what behind her." I hope you ace this," her cousin said through the phone." I hope for the best as well, I am tired of staying home. It's suffocating."" You got this, call me when you 're done with the meeting," Cerys bid her well as she entered the kitchen for a cup of coffee for the road." Thanks, babe,"She hadn't seen her husband this morning when she woke up and Aly wasn't giving her any proper information as to where he had gone.

EPILOGUE" Hey-um , my son is three months old and guess who he looks like? You guessed right...me" he said holding her hand and speaking to her. Malayah had gained conciousness and was discharged two weeks after Brielle and her son were discharged. However, due to the impact Syd had gone into a coma. Everyone was devasted by the news but the one who was affected most was Kendrick. He and his sister's relationship had started growing into a beautiful one after the rough patch they went through when he had issues with Brielle.Brielle. He had caught her a couple of times silently crying.

"... and to my dearest wife I----" Wow, you thought you could read the will without the lawyer and the rest of the family?" Malayah asked as she walked in with the lawyer, Brielle and her husband." Anika stood opening and closing her mouth like a fish under water." I-um-er..." she stuttered." You thought I was dead?" the lawyer chuckled taking his seat as Cerys glared at her aunt." And I thought this was family only? What's Cerys doing here?! She wasn't related to my dad in any way." Brielle added siting down with the help of Kendrick. They had security men in vantage points in case something went wrong." She's my family," Anika added." Oh...wow! Bravo. It all makes sense how you both suddenly became close and how my dearest cousin wanted to kill me." she added to the shock of everyone." Yes Cerys, you pretended to be a good cousin to me to gain my trust. As soon as I saw you and this witch together on different occasions I knew I had to do my own investigation. I found out how

"... and he was my dad as well," Malayah said entering the lawyers office with her guard at the door. She had a tip that Anika had gone to see the lawyer and she knew pretty well what that woman can do. There was no way she was loosing to her. " Ah Malayah, fancy seeing you here," she said through grit teeth. " I wish I could say same. I didn't know we had a meeting today...good day Mr Jones," she said taking a seat beside Anika. " There isn't , Mrs Scott-Roberts came in a few minutes just before you did. I didn't call her," the man added. Malayah could see Anika's face twitch in anger, but she didn't give a rats ass about how she felt. " Thanks for having me Mr. Jones, and don't forget what we talked about before we were interrupted," she said walking out of the door. 'How the hell did that bitch know where she was? Did she follow her or have someone follow her?' She asked her self getting into her car before letting out an angry scream. " I don't think she was, she wasn't hom

" You what?! It was a simple task! How could you miss him?" Anika yelled in her room frustrated. She needed to get her hands on her husband's will to make changes and in order to do that the lawyer had to go. Now, here lies the case where her men missed the target. " He was too fast and he was in the midst of a pool of people, it has hard to target him," the man added. " That's no excuse, you could have chased him down or something," she added on frustrated. " The police were on patrol Anika, we couldn't risk our cover being blown." " Fix it!" she yelled ending the call. She needed to lay hands on that will no matter what it took. She had come a long way to loose out on Scott's property. She was his legal wife , thus she and her child deserved the lion share despite what the will said. She needed to alterate it to her advantage. " Is he safe?" Malayah asked her men. " Yes, for now he is. Though she's plotting other ways on how to eliminate him," he answered. " Keep an eye on

"I just received a message from the lawyer, saying that the reading date of your father's will has been postponed." Anika said angrily on the phone. Immediately after receiving the email, she set up a conference call with Cerys and Sage. "No explanation why it was cancelled?" Cerys asked, lying on Aryan's chest. "Nope," "Relax mom, I think he's busy with something else. He'll be in touch with us," Sage added casually, rubbing her stomach. She replied with this, although she wasn't content with the others' suggestions. They had come too far to loose out. Too far! “Okay, I will call you when we know about the next steps. Until then, adios!" she added, ending the conversation. Finally, Aryan was able to breathe. He couldn't risk being caught by Anika and Sage if he spoke. His cover has not yet been blown. It was waaaaay to early. " I think someone has a hand in this. Whoever the person is, I'll find out eventually," she said to no one in particular. " I think your friend maybe rig

" But--- " Babe please?" Kendrick begged kissing her hand. She was seven months gone in her pregnancy journey and Kendrick wanted her to take a break from work. Padma and the rest of her staff could handle business without her. She could also handle work from home in his home office or she could have him set up a home office for her. " I'd be bored and feel lazy and--- He cut her off with a kiss making her blush. " Fine, fine I'll work from home, just cause you begged." she teased. " Thankfully , my plea was heard. Thank you," he said staring into her beautiful eyes. Some years ago, he wanted nothing to do with this wonderful soul. He was still hung up on his ex that anything she did or said did not matter to him. He hurt her so much but she stayed trying to make things work out. At first, he used to think she stayed because of the prize at the end...her inheritance. But he was wrong. She genuinely grew to love him along the years and he wasn't going to trade her for anyone else.

Brie stood beside her husband, and friends as she watched her father's coffin being lowered into the ground. Kendrick gently squeezed her shoulder for support. She had her fists balled as she saw Sage, Cerys and Anika shed crocodile tears. This is what they had wanted from the beginning and now they were pretending to love him? Seriously? " As much as I want to strangle them, they're his family too." Malayah said joining her step-sister. "A family that shouldn't have happened in the first place," she scoffed. " I hate them more than you do. But things will fall in place soon, sooner than you expect," she smiled at her. " Am I interupting something?" Anika asked as she approached them. " Were you trying to?" Brie raised her brow. " Hotheaded as usual. I thought marriage or perharps the accident would have changed you," she said making Kendrick visibly angry. " Too bad that didn't go as you planned," she slightly tilted her head smiling deviously at her step-mother. " I shouldn'

Valerie stood infront of her mirror holding the pregnancy test that showed positive. Yes, her father was dead but he had already stated in his will that she needed to get married and bare him a child before she could acess her share of his inheritance. " Step One complete. Step two underway," she said to no one in particular. Her father's death came as an added advantage to her. " Think of the devil, and he shall call." Valerie said as she picked up her phone to answer the call from her baby daddy. ~ Padma paced back and forth in her hall. It had been weeks since she last spoke to and saw Finn, and she decided it was time to bury the hatchet. It was time they called a spade a spade and not a big spoon. Brie was right. She really didn't have time for the relationship she had with Finn and that wasn't fair on his part. Her anxiety peaked as soon as she heard the doorbell ring. It rang once, twice, and on the third ring her househelp rushed to get the door. "Hi, is she in there?" Fin

" He actually signed them?" she whispered as she held her divorce papers in her hands. She wanted Aryan to come to her and explain what was going on but he chose to take the easy way out like the coward he always has been. " Coward!" she screamed as she slid down the wall crying. Their wedding day replayed through her mind as if she was watching a movie. How could he throw away something so beautiful as their love? Unless he had been faking everything from the onset. " Millie?" Aaron called her name whiles knocking on the door. He turned the doorknob and realised the door wasn't locked in the first place. He let hmself into the house as he looked around to see if he could find her. He heard gentle sniffs and sobs from the kitchen and hurriedly headed there. She was seated on the floor with her back leaned on the wall as she let out sobs. " Hey...are you okay?" He asked as he squatted beside her. She wasn't able to utter a word and handed him the papers Aryan had signed while he carr
