“I tried to assure your mother that you … we are not going to choose Sheila over her but she didn’t believe me one bit,” Alexander told Andrea and Andrew who were currently on the bed while Sapphire and him are on both sides of them.They were in their room, and the kids decided that it would be fun to have some fun before they go to sleep.They did make it clear that they would not sleep in there because Sapphire got on their nerves.Sometimes it is hard that they weren’t already teenagers, it made them wonder what kind of disaster they would cause and the havoc they would wreck once they reach the rebellious teens age.“I totally trust that you did, dad. I am so glad that you are really our dad, there would be no idiot coming about claiming that he is our dad,” Andrea said with an exaggerated eye roll.“No human deserves to be called an idiot, Andrea,” Andrew said and Andrea raised a brow at him in disbelief.“What is wrong with this hypocrite? And I remembered that I said idiot, I d
“Can you please tell me your name ma’am?” She asked, checking through the book record in order to confirm her words.“Sapphire Aldine,” She said simply and the receptionist’s head whipped up so fast Sapphire was shocked that it didn’t snap from her neck. Her eyes widened when she realized that she was truly the one.“Wait a moment, pls.” She said, pressing on the intercom that was at a side, it was obvious that it was a special service for special people, and Sapphire nodded, turning to look around the lobby.The Smiths really do have one of the best hotels to ever exist, it was really extravagant.A woman came from a corner and walked straight to them with a friendly smile on her face.“She is Mr. Smith guest,” She told her simply and the woman nodded before leading away from the lobby.They went through the lift and stopped at the twenty third floor, they walked down the hallway before she led her into the second room.“Here we are, Ms. Aldine,” She said and Sapphire nodded, the wom
“I know that you would be fine Melissa, you are the General Manager of one of the biggest companies out there, your salary would be huge, you would be able to get by too, Arielle, you are in charge of a growing company too, but there much to think about you, mom, I don't think you would have that luxury,” Sapphire said and sucked her teeth as she shook her head in thought. “You had better start looking for a job to do since all you ever did is stay at home like you got no energy, or you can still continue to do that and manage the money in your house card, I am leaving the choice to you.”“You bitch! That's no way to talk to your mother!”“Your first two words made it quite clear that the position is not valid. That's your daughter right there,” she replied pointing to Melissa who was still glaring at her. “You can let me be, I don't mind one bit,” she added.“As if she would ever refer to you as her daughter!” Melissa barked and Sapphire rolled her eyes in irritation.“Are you deaf?
Everyone in the room stared at one another with a steely gaze, no one opened their mouth to say a word, just an intense staring competition.“If any of you have anything to say, you might as well say it now, I am all ears.” Sapphire finally said to the tensed shareholders who looked like they would explode anytime.“You are rude, Sapphire,” A shareholder who Sapphire didn’t know her name was the first to speak out of the bunch, she merely raised her brow at her. “You_”“I would prefer it a lot if you would call me Ms. Aldine, we are not on close enough terms for you to be calling me by my first name,” She interrupted and the woman scoffed.“You have no right to do all this meeting without contacting the board, you can’t just go on announcing that you are the CEO just because Madam Emiliana gave you the position,” Dan said and Sapphire nodded.“Just so you know, Sa—Ms. Aldine, we have already decided that the next CEO would be Ms. Melissa,” Another man said when Sapphire wasn’t taking t
“What the hell do you think you are doing?” Melissa yelled, blocking Sapphire’s way in the lobby, anyone could see that she was so pissed off and looked ready to bite Sapphire’s head off.“Which part are you asking about? I did quite a lot of things today, as the new C.E.O, it is not like I am going to lounge around,” Sapphire said. Two employees passed by and bowed to them, Sapphire smiled at them but Melissa glared at them as they made their ways out of their sight.“What do you mean by canceling my salary? You expect me to work here without being paid?” She screamed at her and Sapphire didn’t even flinch, but she was attracting a lot of attention with her antics, she looked like a mad woman in a suit.“What are you talking about, Melissa?” Sapphire asked with furrowed brows and a confused look.She knew what Melissa was trying to do and she was ready to step up to her class. She won’t be able to paint her as the evil sister successfully.“Don’t talk shit! You know too damn well wha
Sapphire smiled at Candy who dropped some files on the table and she smiled back at her, she looked very happy and it wasn’t really hard to guess why. Sapphire had come to the company and apologize for merging SJAY with her family company without asking for the employees thought on the matter but they didn’t really cared and told her straight to the face that she wouldn’t do the company any bad and it would be more easier for her manage both company like that.“Since you announced the merge, people have swamped over, we have a lot of things to do,” Katie announced entering the office with Belle, Craig and Jace trailing after them.Sapphire had asked her entire team to come up to her office, it is obvious that Mira is running late as usual, she was always behind ever since she got her new position in the company.“Are you complaining already?” Belle asked and Katie shook her head.“You know that we love it. We couldn’t ask for more than this, it is better than before,” Katie replied.Th
“I think it is turning the sunny side up for everyone in the family, your wife is now the newest heiress in town, your Aldine family power keeps increasing every second,” Zayn said and Alexander rolled his eyes at him before turning to continue writing what he was writing.“Shut your mouth Zayn,” He snapped at him and he pouted.“Can’t you be as gentle with me as you are with that pen,” Zayn grumbled, pointing to the ball point which Alexander was using to write and the man paused to stare at him.“Are you seriously doing this right now, Zayn?” Alexander asked his friend in disbelief.“Yep, I am,” he answered and he glared at him. “Okay, I give up. Did you talk to Sapphire?” Zayn added.“Yes I did, she is at her cooking class, having a talk with her group of friends. She would come here after she is done,” Alexander said, a small smile on his lips.Zayn is sure that he doesn’t even know that he is smiling, his wife and kids bring out a side he had never seen with his friends and he lo
What are you talking about? She is Heather, I was there when she was led here and since then she had not been let out of sight,” Mike replied and Emmy stared Heather one more time before nodding anyway, a hint of doubt still remained in her eyes but she kept her mouth sealed.“If one of you would please tell me what the hell you are doing here. We have been seating her for more than two freaking hours in silence,” Heather finally said after she had enough with her family who just kept staring at her as if she was a portrait, they made no move to talk and they didn't do as they would do soon.They were looking like someone forced them to be present here.“What are we waiting for, Emmy?” Mike asked.“My assistant, I forgot something important at the office, I am supposed to get Heather there but since you want everything confidential, I have to make sure that I have everything here,” She said, “I trust that you have also arranged everything I asked for,” Emmy said.“Trust us on that, doc

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
