Audrey and Maddie were all set to leave the restaurant when suddenly a voice rang out, "Maddie!" compelling the two girls to turn their heads towards the direction the voice had come from.

"Maddie, what a pleasant surprise running into you here."

Maddie's face broke into a frown as soon as the frame of the approaching blonde Anderson twin brother, hit her vision. What did he want?

One of the bodyguards came to stand in front of Maddie blocking Stephen's path when he reached them and made to take a step closer. Even Audrey couldn't help but eye him. She had no problems personally with the man but she was well aware of all the controversy going on between him and her friend's husband Jake Conat. What was he doing trying to talk to Maddie?

"I mean no harm, I was just saying hi, that's all," Stephen muttered.

Maddie, unsure what response to give to him just maintained the polite smile playing on her face, and then made to walk past him.

"Have a good day Maddie!" he said to her as sh

    "Mr Conat." The butler's voice compelled Jake to turn his head away from the coffee machine to the door where the aged man was standing. He had heard him approaching the kitchen from a distance but hadn't been sure who it was. Returning his gaze to the coffee machine brewing his coffee, he turned it off as his mug got full, and then he picked up the mug, brought it to his lips to take a quick sip before he turned his head back to the butler who hadn't moved an inch from the door but just remained standing there, waiting on him. "I am such a fool!" Jake muttered, mostly to himself and ending with a scoff. He brought the mug to his lips again and took a few more sips before moving towards one of the counter height bar stools in the kitchen, placing the cup on the countertop in front of the stool, before moving to sit on it. The butler couldn't help but sigh softly. He had overheard the quarrel between Jake and Maddie. When his master had returned home looking all furious and had

    When Maddie stepped back into the room and didn't see Jake, her heart sank further within her. True, she had told him to go away but couldn't he have stayed? Couldn't he have tried to assure her of his feelings for her? Or was she right to think that what he felt for her was shallow and already fading? Were her doubts true? Moving to sit on her bed, a heavy sigh escaped her lips as she reached for her phone to check if he had at least sent her a text message. Opening their chat, she sighed again as she saw that aside from the text, which he had sent to her to inform her that he was on his way home and that he missed her, and then her reply telling him that she missed him too, no other text had come from him. He must have texted her on his way back before he saw the news that got him all upset. He hadn't replied to her own text so that must mean he had already seen the news by the time she had replied to his text… . Why had he gotten so upset at her like it was her fault? She didn't

    Maddie felt like her heart was about to burst from how erratically it was pounding against her ribcage. Did he really mean it? The words he had just said to her? Was that really how she made him feel? Tears came streaming down her cheeks and at the same time she laughed out feeling a fleet of overwhelming emotions wash through her. Yeah she had wanted a confession but this was way more than she had expected. His words had been the most beautiful and heartfelt… Right at that moment, she felt so special. So loved. It almost felt like they were both at the altar at that moment and he had just said his vows to her and now it was her turn. The thought made her laugh even harder. Was she even remotely fancying the idea of a wedding? Well, that wouldn't be so such a terrible thing to suddenly fancy, would it? She didn't used to fancy love but now she did. But then, if she proposed that they have a wedding, would Jake even agree to it? After all, he had told her before that he didn't fancy

    Serenity reigned in the room for minutes as Mathew just held onto Audrey so closely that he could practically feel her heartbeat, since his hands, which were wrapped around her, were crossed in front of her and resting against her bosom. Her heart was pounding erratically… Or was he imagining it? Her feminine scent was arousing and messing with his head, planting images of their passionate night and causing his body to arch even more towards her with need. With a grunt, Audrey pulled away from him swiftly, using one hand to flip him over so that he fell flat on the floor and on his back with a thud. "Ouch! That hurts!" Matt exclaimed. He had been totally expecting her to break away from him sooner or later but her flipping him over had taken him by surprise. Moreso, she hadn't immediately broken away from him even though she could have. She had instead let him hold her for minutes. Why? "Grab me again like that and I will make you feel an immeasurable amount of pain!" Audrey thre

    "Alright then. I will have my assistant give you a call once I make my decision about it."Jake rose as he spoke and so did his assistants and the other two people sitting on the round table setting with them. The two other people, a man and a woman were business associates that had asked to meet with him because they had a proposal to pitch to him. Jake had just finished listening to their proposal and although it was a good one, he still wanted to think about it a little.Polite bows were exchanged amongst them and Jake started making his way out of the luxury restaurant. His two assistants followed closely behind him, spreading themselves out evenly on a straight line so Jake was in between them but a few steps ahead of them.When they stepped out of the building and started to make their way across the road, to where their car was parked, Micheal hurried ahead to open the passenger seat for Jake to get into the car, closing the door after him. Afterwards he got into the driver sea

    When Jake drove into the mansion through the gate, he parked by the entrance and hurriedly got out of his car, proceeding towards the doorsteps. He had made Mathew and Micheal take a cab back to the company while he had driven the car and hurried back to the mansion, after the butler's call.As he made his way in through the door, the butler met him. "Where are they?" Jake asked the butler. His voice was surprisingly calm however a tinge of panic hid underneath it."Your mother already left. Your wife is up in her room.""What did they talk about?" Jake asked another question.The butler let out a heavy sigh. "I don't know exactly but your wife was pretty upset when she left the living room for her room and your mother was furious when she left the mansion as well."Letting out a sigh, Jake made his way past the butler and hurried towards the stairway. He knew his mother, she was one vicious and manipulative woman who would go to any length just to get what she wanted. He thus felt

The golden orb in the sky seemed friendly to the inhabitants of earth as its rays weren't as harsh as the previous day's own.Within the four corners of the Conat's mansion, the atmosphere was joyous and abuzz. A birthday party was ongoing characterised by music, laughter and happy chatters. It was an athletic, sports-themed birthday party incorporating basketball and gymnastics. Since Andrew loved basketball and Sheila was into gymnastics, they had decided to go with this theme. Sheila's birthday wasn't until the next day but the duo had decided to celebrate it together on Andrew's birthday.The backyard of the mansion had been transformed into a mini sports arena, decorated with colourful balloons, colourful mats, sparkling ribbons and banners depicting both basketball and gymnastics sports.

    "Mr Anderson is here." Micheal's voice came from the telecommunicator on Jake's desk. "Send him in," Jake said simply before disconnecting the call. A few minutes later, a knock sounded on the door. "Come in," he muttered and Stephen Anderson stepped in, escorted by Mathew who left immediately Stephen moved to sit down on the chair Jake gestured for him to sit in. "This is a real desperate move. Asking me to buy your company," Jake spoke with a smirk curved on his face. Stephen chuckled, a rather dry chuckle. "Well, are you going to buy it or not?" And it was Jake's turn to chuckle. "Not… I mean with you giving me that cocky attitude of yours and all, why would I do you such a favour?" Stephen sighed heavily, the smirk on Jake's face annoyed him to no end. And to think it was Jake who had catalysed the crisis going on in his company in the first place. Well, he wasn't trying to blame him anymore, after all, if he hadn't done anything wrong, Jake wouldn't have been able to dig up

    The long awaited day of the trial of the state versus Linsley Conat finally came. As the masses were now actively involved in this case, Linsley Conat had been unable to bribe her way out of prison. The few people she knew in power in the judiciary system refused to help her. Her last resort, which had been to fake mental illness, had fallen apart because her son had made sure to cut her off completely from those that might be able to help her fake the reports and all the other necessary documents. Backed in a corner, helpless, all she had been able to do was wait dejectedly in her cell for the day of her trial…"All rise!"Everyone in the courtroom rose immediately as the command from the judicial assistant rang out. The judge stepped in and it was after he took his seat that he muttered a lazy, "Sit!" and everyone else in the courtroom took their respective seats.From across the courtroom, Linsley's almost lifeless eyes caught sight of her son and she gave him the most deathly st

    It was all over the news the next morning being a Saturday, every news channel was airing it. Newspapers, magazines both online and in hard copy print all carried the news of the arrest of Linsley Conat. The news however didn't say under what grounds she was arrested but in the news published by Starlight Media agency, they announced that the son of Linsley Conat, Jake Conat had agreed to an exclusive interview to discuss the subject of his mother's arrest and give them all the scoop there was. The interview was scheduled for the next day being Sunday. The internet was in a frenzy. Jake got a call from the company warning him not to come because the paparazzi were everywhere. Even the security stationed far ahead at the entrance of the street leading to the mansion had called to inform him that the paparazzi were gathered there as well. Thankfully, the paparazzi couldn't get into the street because of the tight security at the entrance so they couldn't get anywhere close to the ma

    It was a lot. Everything that had happened in the past couple days. It was too much revelation. She was angry, bitter, sad, frustrated, and hurt but most of all, what she felt the most was fear. The fear of losing the love she shared with Jake. The fear of losing the happiness he had brought into her life. The fear of losing the peace he had brought her. The fear of losing the complete perfect family she had envisioned. The fear of losing her brother even. It was because of this fear that she hadn't come to a decision all the while or even address the situation. Now she was ready. She knew what she had to do. Karen had ended their session with the words, "Maddie dear, don't forget that the past is past. It actually has no control whatsoever on your present or future, not unless you allow it. Your happiness does not lie in the past but in your now." Karen's words had been the final push she had needed to come to a decision… "Welcome mummy," Andrew who was in the living room rushed

    Maddie had been sitting right across Karen for roughly fifteen minutes already, yet she hadn't said a word other than the greeting she had muttered to the lady when she had first stepped in. The warm smile playing on the therapist's face didn't falter, she continued waiting patiently for Maddie to speak. Drawing a sharp breath, Maddie finally opened her mouth to speak. "I umm, it's umm, complicated. I don't even know where to start." Karen's smile widened. "You can start anywhere you like Maddie. " The way Karen's office was designed, it was a modern office setting with an office table and a chair, and then across the table on the other end were two other chairs, arranged to slantingly face each other. There were a stretch of cupboards right behind the office table and chairs, at the far end of the wall, it contained drawers containing files of patients. Ahead of the office table before one got to the door or if one came from the door, were two adjacent reclining sofas. This w

    "Idiot!" Linsley cursed under her breath the moment Stephanie was gone, kicking at her feet in fury, and just then her phone rang. She glanced at the caller ID and then picked the call rather hurriedly. "So, have you found that fool Harry?" she asked the person on the other line. "No we haven't. He seems to have disappeared," came the reply from the person on the other line. "Then find his f**king family fool and use them to lure him out!" She practically yelled into the phone. "Well, umm, his father and younger sister have disappeared as well. I think your son is protecting them by keeping them hidden somewhere." "Arrrgh!" Linsley screamed, tossing her phone across the wall in anger. "Incompetent fools!" she cursed, and then started to parade about the room. Her son was protecting Harry! Was he f**king insane? He had threatened to send her to jail but it had just been an empty threat, right? Well, she was beginning to think of the threat as more than just an empty threat.

    Jake couldn't believe she was really in his arms. Sleeping so soundly with her face pressed against his chest. He had been on his way out to get himself a fresh cup of coffee when the knock on his door had sounded. He had immediately known it was her. So, he had quickly answered the door and alas! It had been indeed her!Even though she had not exactly voiced out her reason for being there, he had seen it playing so evidently in her eyes. But then, there had been conflicting emotions playing in her eyes too and she had almost scurried away. Thank goodness he hadn't let her! He hadn't known where the courage had come from to ask her to stay and let him cuddle her. He had almost thought she wouldn't stay or let him even as much as touch her but she had agreed. She had stayed and now she was in his arms.However, Jake didn't know whether to be pleased or not. It was almost like she was giving herself one last time to be with him, and then afterwards she would leave him for good. It wa

    "You umm, you have something on your mouth," Jake's voice sounded seconds later when Maddie didn't look away like he had expected her to when their gazes first locked. His shaky voice gave away his nervousness. He wasn't lying though, she did have food particles smeared on one corner of her lips.On hearing his words, Maddie reached for a serviette piece on the table to wipe her mouth all over as Jake hadn't specifically pointed out the part of her mouth that was smeared with food particles. And she wasn't ready to ask him for specifics. As she performed this action, Jake found his eyes lowering to her lips, swallowing as he remembered how it tasted. She finished cleaning her mouth, her eyes returning to him and catching the desire playing in his eyes. Her gaze on him turned into a glare and he quickly looked away from her feeling slightly embarrassed. "Mummy, can you please pass me the ketchup?" Andrew's voice was Jake's saving grace as Maddie averted her gaze from him to her s

    Jake did well to stay out of Maddie's way for the rest of the evening. Even skipping dinner. He was already content enough that she had returned to the mansion although he knew that her reason for returning was most probably because of her son. It had been evident in her face earlier when she saw him after getting out of the car. The way she had turned away from him so swiftly. He was pretty sure that if she could, she would have dug a hole and hidden herself in it right there and then. It was how much she despised him now. Well, she did have every right to. Closing his laptop, Jake rose from his chair and started to make his way out of the office study. He proceeded towards the kitchen in the second floor, opening the refrigerator to take out a foil covered plate. The plate contained the quesadilla pizza his son had given him earlier saying that Maddie and him had baked it and kept some for him. He knew that them keeping some for him was all his son and not at all Maddie's decis
