Sapphire opened her eyes and was engulfed by Alexander’s scent, she smiled happily and nuzzled her face in his chest as she remembered the event of the previous night, and a small blush coated her cheek when she remembered how shameless she was.There was no sound or anything to indicate that it was morning but Sapphire just knew that it was, there was no way she wasn’t able to sleep through the night.She was just so tired when they were and could only feel the way he took care of her in her sub consciousness, till now it was not clear in her mind, she just hoped that she didn’t say anything to embarrass her further.Time would never stop and she would never have reason to wish it did because she knew that no matter whatever the time is, she would be able to relive any moment she wants because she knows that Alexander is going nowhere.She just laid there, thoughtless, nothing came to her mind and it was eternal bliss, she just wanted to remain here, in his arms.After a while, she d
“Mom, you woke up very late today, you didn’t even attend yoga practice,” Andrea said and Sapphire smiled at her daughter.“You missed the cooking class yesterday too, we had to go to the party, I was tired yesterday, I didn’t knew when you came home with dad, I planned to welcome you at the door,” Andrew said and Sapphire choked on the toast she was eating, Alexander quickly handed her a glass of water, a smirk on his face and Sapphire glared at him.She was imagining Andrew running out of the room to welcome his parent like the good kid he is and sees them trying to swallow each other, the kind of explanation and diverting they would have to do sent a shudder down her pine and she visibly shuddered as she drank her water, Alexander who was aware of her train of thought only smiled to himself.“That is not the proper way to say thank you mom, we won’t take after you in any way at this point,” Andrea cautioned her and Sapphire raised a brow at her daughter
Sapphire entered the club and looked around the place, she ran her hand through her wavy hair and nodded in approval.She has to applaud their taste in specific things they choose, the club is elegant, that was the only simple way to describe it.“Hi Sapphire!” She heard Tiara scream behind her and she turned to see the woman hurrying towards her, she looked down at her clothes in surprise.“What the hell are you wearing?” Sapphire asked and the woman smiled before burying her hand in the pocket of her pants, Tiara was wearing a fucking sweatpant in the yoga club, she wouldn't be caught dead dressed like this.“Seems like she took her words seriously, our dear friend here had decided that she won't please Mr. Ed anymore, she would dress the way she wants,” Gladys said behind her, her beautiful short dress glittering in the club lights.“Wow,” Sapphire said and nodded, staring at Tiara once again, she looked natural and odd at the same time, maybe it is just she couldn't get over the w
“I thought I heard someone explain my name right now but it seems like I am hearing things,” Sapphire said when none of them spoke and Ruby chuckled, while the kids ran to Maxwell who was beaming from ear to ear.“Uncle Max!” Andrea screamed, running into his outstretched arms, a giggle falling to her lips while Andrew just strolled towards them behind her, Sapphire had an idea how her children would turn out to be when they grow up.“If it is the cutest kids to ever exist,” He replied, hugging both of them closely and the kids beamed at him.“Why haven’t you come over to our house, mom said that you would come but the days keep increasing and there is no sight of you,” Andrea said, a pout on her lips and Maxwell chuckled.“Honestly, there was no other reason for us to come to this place, if not for the fact that we wanted to see you,” Andrew said, emphasizing on the words ‘this place’ while looking around with a stare that screamed how inferior he deemed the Conrad mansion compared t
Sapphire halted in her movement and stopped eating, holding the cutlery in her hand but there was no surprise of any sort on her face, she just stared at the plate blankly, the fact that all her movements halted was the only indicator that she wasn’t aware of this decision that her grandmother made out of the blue.“What?!” Melissa asked, standing up suddenly, her eyes wide in shock, staring from her grandmother to Sapphire and from Sapphire back to the woman.“What are you talking about mother?” Felix asked, his eyes solely trained on his mother figure.“I knew it,” Arielle said under her breath, a scoff fell from her lips and she and Venita relaxed in their seats to watch the drama that would soon unfold. While Arielle wanted to observe the situation, Venita just thought that it would be fun.“This is quite interesting,” Venita said, a small smile on her lips, she was staring at Melissa’s dumbfounded expression in amusement.“What the… Sapphire of all people? You want her to become
“I am sorry Grandmother, but I can't accept this offer of yours, except from the fact that my husband would be strictly against it,” Sapphire said, turning to her grandmother who was staring at them all, an apologetic smile on her lips.She turned to look at her sister and uncle and her lips turned up in an arrogant smirk.“I don't want to be anywhere near all these people, working in the same space as them would suffocate them, I am afraid most people would see my potential and say I deserve their position better than they do,” she finalized condescendingly, staring Melissa down.“You must think that you are the shit because of Alexander, don't forget that the union is a result of an arranged marriage, what husband?” Melissa said, staring into Sapphire’s eyes and scoffed at the ridiculous words she was spewing.“You guys are not even married yet!” she told her and Sapphire nodded, she dusted her hands and carried her bag that she had placed on the table when she sat to eat.It is cle
Oliver exhaled as soon as he parked his car in the garage, he took a moment to assemble his thoughts before getting down from the car.He started walking to the entrance door. It is obvious that the Grays are trying too hard to fit the position of the most elegant family among the families of high society.It has been barely two months since he came here and he felt like he was in an entire different house, the furniture and flowers have been changed, the big fountain that was in the middle of the house was changed to the latest model and the walls were repainted to look more beautiful, the fluorescent lights also enhanced it beauty.He shook his head with a scoff, his mother really went over the top this time but that wasn't his main concern, he was more concerned about the fact that his grandfather asked him to come that evening.He has asked him to come at eight a.m the day before but he canceled it because he had to go to a meeting of some sort which was apparently, more important
“Sapphire sat the on the chair that was closest to the window with a cup to tea in her hand, she enjoyed looking out at the sky that looked quite beautiful at that moment, the television was running but she didn’t pay it any attention, it was late in the night and her kids have went to sleep, as well as her friends and her in laws.Alexander was late today too, Nate had called him regarding some information that he got on Shirley and he needed to meet him at the company. Some other things also needed his attention. He had sent a text message to her just when she got out of the dining room at the Conrad mansion.Sapphire was forced to pay attention to the television when she heard the news anchor say her name twice, she turned to look at the display on screen.“… case was discarded because there was no way someone as high on drugs as Sapphire could drive a car, she would have just slept in the car, that is if she had been able to enter the car in the first place.All is quite clear now

Last time, it was her family signing a fake marriage contract, but this time, she was having a real engagement party.Alexander was talking with a the same man he was talking to that day, and was standing at that same spot, only this time, the spot where Melissa stood was acquired by Luci and Zayn, they were chatting heartily, a man tried to pass and almost bumped into Luci but Zayn quickly wrapped his hand around her waist and pulled her to the side, they both talked to the man and resumed their conversation, but Zayn hands never left Luci’s waist which made Sapphire smile.Not too far from them were Tiara and Fiona who seemed to be having a serious conversation. Fiona was the one speaking while Tiara just stared at her.“You finally decided to show your face out here?” Mr. Aldine said and Sapphire laughed, it was a small and quiet laugh.“I am sorry for not visiting you since all this while,” Sapphire said.“I understand. You have been busy, besides I have the kids by my side most o
“The only thing I love the most about everything here is your ring, I mean, would you check out that beautiful thing?” Tiara who was dressed to perfection gushed, she bent beside Sapphire and held her hand up to her face, and she stared at the ring with a gooey look in her eyes. She had asked Sapphire to remove it to let her examine it but Sapphire had refused to do that.“You have been saying that you loved the ring in a thousand different phrases ever since you saw that ring on her finger,” Gladys said beside her, Sapphire didn’t know that someone could look so hot in a super short dress at an engagement party but she managed to rock it hard. Gladys rrolled her eyes at her friend who only pouted at her before turning back to the ring.“Just how much was it worth? Did you ask him?” Luci asked as she perched herself on the beautiful chair that Sapphire was sitting, she also stared at it in admiration. Luci had gone for the dark look with her floor length back dress that was slit all t
Headache shot up her head when she hit her head on the floor and she willed it to split apart in order to stop, she could only groan in her throat and curse Sapphire and her friends over and over in her head.She turned to her head and felt every single part of her body freeze, she didn’t even dare to blink, it would make too much noise and her body was particularly capable of that feat.Just a foot away from her were giant scorpions, they were huddled together at a spot and were unmoving, her eyes trailed upward and a gasp would have fell from her lips if she didn’t have that gag because she saw a snake crawled on the ground into a spot and came out of another opened one, that was when she saw the snake for what it was; a viper.Cold sweat covered her and her body started shaking in fear, her inability to run her way out of this dangerous ditch also made her terrified, it would be the end of her if she was attacked.She tried to move back only for back to slam heavily on what seemed
“You shouldn’t do this to me, if you do this to me you would be a murderer too,” Arielle said, desperately and Sapphire shrugged.“Doesn’t matter. We Conrad are known for being villainous already, if I emerged as a murderer, people won’t be shocked, they would be even glad that I got rid of you for them.” Sapphire said and nodded. “Here is what we would do. Try to convince me to not kill you, I am listening,” Sapphire gestured to her with her hands.“Aren’t you afraid of ending up in hell?” she blurted out and Sapphire stared at her with a dumbfounded expression, everyone paused what they were doing but Luci was the first person that burst into laughter, she doubled as she tried to control her laughter and catch her breath but she couldn’t stop herself.“What?” Sapphire asked in disbelief and she started chuckling before she started to laugh . Zayn was snickering from where he sat and staring at Arielle with the expression that screams ‘No, you didn’t just say that bitch.”Some of the
Arielle sat in the cell that was reserved for only ‘hardened criminals’ like her, that’s what everyone referred to her as, she even saw some of the prisoners flinched when she brushed her hand passed them.Even though they call her suspect in face of any camera they see, they treat worse than a murderer that has went to court and branded as on, they should at least picked her to court first.She thought about the day’s event and laughed out loud, maniacally and hysterically, the wardens at her door glanced at her once before they turned to resume their duties of staring, at least that was what she assumed, she only saw their eyes through the small space at the top of the iron door and she didn’t saw them again when they moved.Melissa had been sentenced to life imprisonment. Very good! That was what she had planned from the beginning of her plan, the one she drew when she was sixteen, that was the only plan that was to her aid. Even if Melissa hadn’t been in prison because she foolish
“With all of the solid evidence against Ms. Melissa Conrad, I hereby sentence her to life imprisonment, the money that she has now would be used to pay for the companies she damaged and the rest would be confiscated.” The judge said and Melissa just stared blankly at every single person in the court, her eyes met Sapphire’s and they both stared at each other solemnly for a bit.It was Melissa’s hearing and Sapphire went with almost all her friend, Luci, Tiara and Gladys, Claire was absent because she had something she needed to do at the gallery and Trisha had once again been asked to do some humiliating task by her mother-in-law, Sapphire hopes that she would be able to break free from their abuse soon and would stop at nothing to help, Tiara also assured that if they interfere in it, her in-laws would not do as much as grunt but Trisha would only smile and say that it was not yet time to make such a move, she wanted to wait till climax before executing which made Sapphire suspect th
Luci rushed to Sapphire who was sprawled on the ground with a blood stain on her stomach. She felt her breathing and saw that she was still alive.“Save Sapphire first, let's get her to the hospital! Zayn, get a car instead of standing there like an immobilized ant, Claire, get the first aid box,” she screamed out orders and Claire quickly nodded, running to the door at the speed of light, it was like her feet weren't touching the floor at all, Zayn also went out of her sight and some men advanced towards her to help carry Sapphire.She saw that Alexander hadn't moved from the same spot he was since the Arielle fiasco started, it made her gritted her teeth in irritation and despite the fact that she always tread cautiously and respectfully around the man, she didn't know when she snapped at the man angrily.“You wife is here in the pool of her own blood, dying and barely holding on to life because of the stupid thing she did well th this crazy woman,” she said, glared at Arielle who h
Sapphire wrapped her night robe around her tighter, it was pretty chilling out here but she felt that she needed to go on a walk to clear her head now, Melissa has a hearing in the court the next day and in front of her very eyes, she might be convicted for a crime Sapphire was sure that she had absolutely no idea of.It was pretty clear to everyone in the inner circle that it was Arielle that set her up, Brielle had confirmed that Arielle was indeed sighted at the premises of the prison at that night, her face was shown as she was using her signature face cap and mask, she had her hair well-kept in her cap and didn’t made any silly mistake like letting a strand of her hair remain in the murder scene, she had gloves and boots on and that’s why no DNA of her was found on the scene.Though there was no assurance that she would be able to get Melissa out of the prison if she interfered, she would at least get a reduced sentence of a punishment lighter than the initial one that she would
