“She is a traitor and the likes of her deserves to die,” Marshall firmly said, his countenance cold. Ariana trembled internally but her appearance looked calm.

Knowing how ruthless his grandfather was, Caddaric quickly went over and stood above them, “I said, leave her alone,” he said politely but his tone was firm.

Marshall was very good at digging out information so he knew a lot of things that Caddaric didn’t know. Experience as it seemed. Marshall lifted his head and looked him in the eyes, his expression unreadable. “This girl will be your end. You should let me take care of her. She is a spy.”

“I’m not a spy,” Ariana quickly defended herself while she looked up at Caddaric pleadingly. She didn’t mind dying but she couldn’t stand it if Caddaric thought unworthy of her. She knew that he liked her and didn’t want that to change. Caddaric’s emotions couldn’t be seen on his face as he looked her in the eyes and said,

“Don’t worry, I believe you, and no one would hurt you.”

    “Grandpa, how did you get in?” Caddaric lifted his head and asked. Marshall was expressionless.“The door was already unlocked.”Caddaric realized that he had to rephrase the question. “I mean, I didn't hear you walking in.”“You already know the answer to that. So, isn't it true? She can't be trusted can she?”Indeed they were trained to feather walk but Caddaric didn’t expect to be on the receiving end. It was strange to see the man when he hadn't heard him walking in. “Yes grandpa, she can be trusted.”“So why are you spying on her?” The elderly man asked him. How could Caddaric tell him that he was checking to see if Ariana was going to do something silly for the 100k? “Can you keep a secret grandpa?”“I might if you call me Marshall,” he said and sat down in front of him. Caddaric would go outlandish if he didn’t talk to someone.“Okay, Marshall. A guy named Jason is asking her to pay back money her late father owes him. I already took care of it but she doesn’t know that so I w

    Both parties involved Ariana so he couldn’t choose which one to hear first. His heart was just gladdened that Carter had been able to get every piece of information for him. “They are both of equal priority so any of them is fine.”“I kind of like Angelina and Bruce Dante’s love story so I will begin with that one,” Carter scoffed at the end of the line. Caddaric realized that it wasn’t what it seemed.“I’m listening.”“Angelina is suffering from kidney failure but she is unaware.”“How is that possible?” Caddaric asked. There were symptoms for all health conditions. Wasn’t she seeing the signs or she was just reading them wrongly? With all that she has, why won’t she see a specialist? The more Caddaric asked the questions internally, the more convinced he was that something didn’t add up.“She shows the symptoms and goes to the hospital but Bruce keeps the results from her and has warned the doctors not to tell her, although he is searching for a donor for her,” Carter explained and

    Ariana grabbed the glass door in time to prevent herself from crashing into the two ladies. One of them looked very familiar, with long heavy black hair, and Ariana instantly recalled that she had seen her on TV during Caddaric’s introduction. That was Cassandra Blade, his sister. She was very pretty with a few similarities to Caddaric. The woman next to her was adorned with a different kind of beauty. Her hair was blonde and her skin was milk white with beautiful hazel eyes. However, She looked arrogant and unapproachable. Ariana could sense trouble. “You must be the cleaner right? Is my brother in?”Cassandra asked all at once, while she blinked. Ariana felt stupid for a while and agreed. “Yes, I came to clean but he isn’t up so I’ll be back later,” she said, and tried to squeeze through the two ladies but Cassandra blocked her path and squeezed her hand.“Miranda, why don’t you check on him,” she said to the woman next to her, who quickly passed Ariana as if she wasn’t in the doo

    Ariana’s eyes were wide open, as the waves of shock spread through her before she began to respond to his demanding and obsessive kiss. As suddenly as he started it, he stopped, pursed his thin lips, and pulled away. Regret flashed in his eyes but it was gone with a blink. Her heart sank but she was grateful to have a taste of his lips. It was so soft and addictive. “I…” Caddaric was about to apologize but Ariana cut in.“Don’t tell me you are sorry. It will make me feel bad.” She could see the complicated emotions in his eyes and could tell that what he felt for her wasn't ordinary but was he willing to accept it?“I shouldn’t have done that to you,” he confirmed. He was scared because he wanted more of her after kissing her right now. The Blade heirs could have a woman on the side after their betrothed but he knew that that option would hurt her. He would die before he caused her any form of pain. It was better to not let it happen again. Going by the flow only made it worse because

    Miranda’s heart was pounding in her chest. What should she say? She definitely couldn’t reveal the identity of the person calling her. It was even worse that he didn’t stop calling. It seemed as if his phone was on automatic redial.“Answer the phone,” Caddaric said coldly. Surprisingly, he was patient with her, which made her more afraid. Right now, she wished that he would climb upstairs and not come down till she spoke to the person on the phone.“It….it’s just my mom. I will call her later,” Miranda faked a smile.Why did Caddaric feel like she was lying to him? Her mother would not call her knowing that she had come to see him so what was she hiding? The Wreath family was the responsibility of the Blades because they had been bound to them.“Oh, let me talk to her then,” he said calmly, with his hands stretched towards her.Miranda’s hands were instantly shaky but she tried her best to not lose her phone, which she only held tighter. “Ehmmm,”Caddaric’s hand was still held out but

    Ariana had to think carefully. She enjoyed working as his secretary because the man was busy and kept everything professional but thinking about her future, what if something happened between them and their relationship turned sour?She might lose her job as a secretary and go back to being a waitress, which would be shameful, more like a fall from grace kind of story. It was better she kept both and reported to different bosses. If anything happened between them, she could still work with her head high. Her response was a subtle, “No.”Caddaric knew he was playing with fire by insisting because he didn’t know how long he would be able to hold back that burning desire. Still, it only felt worse to be away from her. “What if I add the job of a supervisor instead of a waitress? I’ll increase your working hours as my secretary and reduce your hours as a supervisor. Your salary will also be adjusted accordingly.”It sounded good to Ariana but she felt strange at the way he kept changing

    The man was dismayed. He thought she would be happy to see him but she was rather apprehensive. He was tall, and muscular with dark brown hair, matching his brown eyes. His baritone voice was warm but his eyes weren’t. “Do you not want to see me?” he asked with disappointment.Cassandra took a step back and looked around for anything to anchor herself with. She was sure that should she scream, he might kill her before her father reached her. The last time they met at the graduation party which was open to the public, this guy was interesting, stealing her heart but with this move, she was afraid. “I must confess that you freaked me out. I don't even know your name.”“You can call me Al,” his eyes softened as he said. Cassandra wasn’t convinced. She was security conscious and wasn’t moved by what she felt. Her sense of reasoning was stronger. “I can? Or that is your name?” She asked emotionlessly. The man smiled a little.“The name is Allan Great but for you, it's Al.”The name didn’t

    When Ariana ran out of Cadaric’s office, Chad was waiting for her. He suspected something but didn’t want to conclude it on hearsay.“Ariana, do you have a special relationship with our boss?” He asked suspiciously. Ariana was a little nervous but her head was high, and she wondered what gave Chad that idea.“No, why do you ask?” Ariana denied it quickly and asked. Chad was unhappy, feeling that she was lying to him. “Rumors. Walk with me,” he said calmly. Ariana walked beside him as he spoke. “People are talking that they’ve seen you enter a car with him after the close of work. Others have seen you coming out of his exclusive hotel room and whatnot.”Ariana swallowed tightly. This wasn’t good. She had to take away that notion, beginning with Chad. “I’m his secretary so it’s normal to be seen with my boss a lot of times right?”Chad was about to answer her when someone interrupted him. “Chad, we are running out of drinks,” the bar manager approached him and said.“Send the list of it

    The family and not Claire? One of the Cals was about to disappear but Caddaric shook his head and said, “Let him in.” He already foresaw what was going to happen. Lord Marvin was looking dashing while he greeted everyone. He spent more time with Carter and said, “Mr. Carter Blade, I want to marry your daughter, Claire.” Sarah’s jaw dropped but Carter responded casually, “You should tell her, not me. I can’t decide for her.” Lord Marvin smiled. “Thanks for giving me your approval,” he said before Carter realized something and asked,“Wait, did you just trick me?” Everyone laughed as Lord Marvin knelt before Claire. He asked with a smile, “I asked you before and you told me to ask your dad. He just gave his support so; will you marry me?” Claire pulled him up by the collar with two hands and kissed him. “Yes, I will marry you,” she said after pulling away. When she received her ring, she was over the moon as their lips met again. The parents were so happy, they were shedding joyful

    At Garnet’s residence, the two Cals arrived after having a quick shower. They were casually dressed and did not want to attend the party without their women. Madelyn was not at home so Cal one entered the house after knocking on the door once. Florence and Sue were having dinner and Sue froze upon seeing the two men. “There are two of them?” she asked Florence. “Yeah,” Florence smiled and said, loving the surprised look on her twin’s face. They had also begun wearing the same things as the men due to Caddaric and Casper’s warnings for the other pair to not be known about. The two men did not know which of the maidens were theirs, as such had not made a move so Florence said, “Grandpa marked me to match one of you.” Cal one instantly grabbed and kissed her passionately. When he broke from the kiss, he slipped a ring onto her finger. A diamond ring. Flo one’s eyes watered. She was not expecting it at all. They only told them about the marriage being a wed

    “Good news and bad news to all families who lost a daughter, a mother, a wife, or any female. A rescue operation led by the man introduced barely a few weeks ago by the Blade family as the twin heir with his sister who the world already knew was the ghost, has performed another successful operation. This time, he rescued with the help of a few men, one hundred and thirty-three women from an underground basement in Jim Correy’s mansion.” Everyone turned to Cal, who was watching leisurely but the news was being reported live and videos showed him fighting and killing off some bodyguards while Carson, who sat beside him, was bringing out the women with a few men they contracted on the way upon hearing about the number. The emergency institutions and agencies had been informed and were on their way, as the reporter went on to say, “Some of them are in critical condition and are being transported to the hospital. Some are very weak and are being attended to by medical

    “Why do you want me to sign a prenup?” Jim was not liking it. A wife was a means of support in hard times so what if Cleo died? Then everything of hers would go back to the Blades? How ruthless. He arrived in NY last night with Cleo and was having a final meeting with the Blades before the wedding took place. Cal one had passed information to Claire to calm everyone but not make it look suspicious that Cleo was disguised and had not turned her back on the family and Junior as they thought before. “Did she not tell you? My granddaughter has a net worth of billions so how can we be sure that you are not marrying her because of money? Tomorrow, you would ask for a divorce and ask her to split her assets. We can’t allow that,” Casper said sternly. He came with a few other Blade seniors but since he was the head of all of them, he took over the discussion. “Then she would have to sign a prenup against my wealth too,” Jim bantered. It was just as they had told him. The

    Women lay on top of each other like sardines because the room, though big, was too small for them. They looked drowsy and just a few of them were alert. When they saw her, they were afraid. “Please don’t hurt us,” one of them said. Cleo’s heart was pained when she saw how they had still been tied together in their condition. Her knees touched the cold dirty floor while she comforted them, “I won’t hurt you but what are you doing here?” She asked in a hushed tone in Spanish because the woman addressed her in the said language. “We were kidnapped and brought here. Every time they come for someone; she does not return. We are starved, so we’ll be weak and can’t escape when given the chance,” she spoke bitterly. Cleo continued to interact with her in a low tone in Spanish. “But you look strong.” “That’s because I’m the last person to be brought here. The longer you stay, the weaker you get and get eliminated. Did they kidnap you too?” She asked pi

    “This marriage will give us their protection and we will not have to hide our business anymore. For as long as we use her to threaten them, they will overlook all that we do. Can’t you see that we can’t get more women because everyone is on the lookout for us?” Jim asked helplessly. Justice’s tone softened as he cautioned, “You have to be careful. I will go and check on the packages.” Jim knew that he meant the women in the basement and reminded him, “We are leaving tomorrow for NY.” “Then let’s have some fun before tomorrow and don’t bring her along,” Justice said and was about to walk away when Cleo asked innocently, “Does your friend hate me? You did not introduce us. Jim, I feel like you are ashamed of me. You don’t want me to know about your friends and family,” she faked being hurt, and somehow, her eyes reddened instantly. She had to do this as proof that she had not heard their discussion and did not know about Justice’s relation to Ji

    The Callahans have been in Mexico for three days. They were able to track Cleo’s location but have not heard any feedback, whether good or bad from her. They were getting worried and impatient, on the verge of breaking into Jim’s so-called mansion. Two days to Cleopatra’s wedding with Jim but she had not made headway. Every time, she insisted on staying back at the mansion when she had the chance and searched for vital information but got none. Jim never entertained maids. A cleaner would come every morning to clean and leave after two to three hours. Time was running out and Cleo was still clueless as to what Jim did for a living. Sometimes, she was tempted to believe that Jim was indeed innocent of all the accusations but her instincts would insist on him being guilty. Tomorrow, they will be headed to NY for the wedding so if Cleo did not step up, then she’d have to marry Jim to continue her search or give up on the whole thing after breaking up with him, which

    Caddaric received information from Casper that Florence had been marked so he said sternly to Sue, “I will send you to your real mother and twin sister but you shall both bear the same name and no one should know that there are two of you. Florence is the name of your twin sister. She would explain things to you.” Sue was dumbstruck. Twins? Now she was getting upset with the woman she had known all her life as a mother. She had been denied her time with her sister and she wished Caddaric had told her before the woman left. No wonder she was afraid and thought she was going to be punished but rather got compensation. “So, my name is going to be changed to Florence?” Sue asked seriously and was eager to meet her twin sister. “All your records and identity would be destroyed. You are Florence Garnet II,” Caddaric explained. Sue did not seem happy but when engulfed in the warm embrace of a middle-aged woman who looked like her, she began to shed tears. Madelyn was so
