After the meeting with Javier’s mother, Ella finally made her way to the ballroom where the party was being held. Albeit the conversation was pleasant, she felt a little tense the second she stepped inside, knowing that Maria must be here and sooner or later she would have to face her. Taking a deep breath, she approached one of the waiters who carried a tray full of drinks, and took a glass of soda. She let the drink calmed her down as she made her way towards the long serving table full of varied appetizers. She was about to grab a mini sandwich when someone knocked her back from behind.

It did not take a genius to figure out who it was because the next thing she heard from just behind her was “What do you think you are doing here, bitch?”

All morning, she had been troubled by the paparazzi. They camped in front of the building where she lived, and some even went up the fire escape stairs that were mounted to the outside of the building. She could no longer sit on her balcony without getting photographed and bombarded with questions. Honestly, people did not respect others’ privacy sometimes. She had called the building manager and some of the security could shoo those people away from the fire escape stairs but they were still crowding the front door. This had been happening since last week when Javier had proposed to her in front of all of her colleagues, his family, and

That is too much information to be shared in the workplace. Speaking of work, where is Roberto? Did he leave without saying goodbye?” Her boss opened his drawer and pulled out a yellow post it note. “He wrote this and put it on your table.” “And you took it because?” Javier narrowed his eyes infinitesimally. “Because I will personally hand it to you. Anyone else who goes to your office and reads this will begin to have negative thoughts about you. That is the last thing I want.” She took the troublesome post-it note and began to read.

He went straight to the line of display refrigerators at the back of the store and opened the glass door to pick up a carton of milk then headed to the cashier. He was checking his phone while waiting in the line when someone called him from behind. Upon turning, he realized that it was none other than Maria Gonzales, the secretary he had once fired for threatening Ella and causing ruckus surrounding his relationship with Ella. “Well, hello, Javier. How has life been treating you?” Maria tossed her hair to one side and combed it using her free hand while her other hand was carrying her purse. Her nails were long and paint

She had booked the meeting room beforehand and had arranged for everything. From the devices being used during the presentation and discussion to the beverages being served during and after the meeting. Carefully she placed her hand on her belly and rubbed it gently. Even though she had drunk a lot of water, her stomach still felt uneasy. She heard his footsteps and quickly rose to her feet, ready to greet him. “Good afternoon, Sir.” “Miss Stanford,” Javier greeted back as he put the cart of milk and an empty glass next to it. He opened the cart and

When Javier called me an hour ago informing me about his encounter with Maria and that you might be the person behind Phoenix Orientem Plc, I did not believe him so I came here just to see it for myself.” Thornton gestured to everyone in the room. “If you all excuse us. Please leave the meeting room as we would delay this meeting for an hour for some family chit chat.” He turned his gaze back to Draven and narrowed his eyes. “Do get acquainted with each other while you wait. After all, we all are going to work together.” When nobody moved a muscle as they were all too engrossed in seeing the interaction between three brothers, Thornton barked his order again. “Out. Now.”

Despite the tension between the three Summers siblings, they could put their emotion in check and discuss things over without any sarcasm nor snide remark. They were all businessmen and they knew that they should not let their personal issue affect the business. It had turned out that Maria Gonzales was the head of interior and landscape design of Phoenix Orientem Plc. After the meeting was concluded and only the marketing team and the public relation team who were still in the meeting room, Javier went outside. Thornton had left the building right after the meeting was deemed to be completed, clearly he was going to inform the rest of Summers family about this new discovery.

He looked embarrassed that she had to see the interaction between him and his brothers. He knew he should not feel this way but he could not help himself sometimes. Ella gave him a reassuring smile. “I am pretty sure if my family is not just me and my mom, you will have to bear my family’s drama too. Actually, if you wish to, I can call my vexing aunt and we could have the drama. She hates me and my mom. Just let me know if you want to and I can have it

It was far too personal to dine at his hotel and furthermore, it was not worth risking her stable relationship with Javier. The clock had barely reached five in the afternoon when Javier put on his coat and grabbed Ella’s coat from the hanger. “Shall we go for dinner?” He stood next to Ella who was still typing on a fast pace on her keyboard.“Five more minutes,” she replied with a smile although her eyes were still glued on the screen. She had to reply to the back to back email between Summers Entertainment and Pacific Atlantic Production. They had some worries about their joint movie production and Ella

    “Did you perhaps get some pieces of your memory back?” asked Ella, sounding hopeful. She’d once been in Clarabelle’s position and she knew how frustrating it was not knowing the past, to have a few years stolen from her memory. Although in the end, Ella managed to gain her memories back. Clarabelle cleared her throat for no particular reason other than to delay answering her sister in law question for several seconds. She shifted uncomfortably in her seat. There was no easy way to say this and she knew that keeping this act for so long wouldn’t benefit anyone either yet it was really hard to tell the truth. No one would understand. “Look, Clara,” Ella held my hand and gave it a gentle squeeze. Ella’s eyes were understanding and Clarabelle was suddenly filled with immense guilt. “It’s okay. You don’t have to say anything. We’re just so happy you’re alright. Don’t force yourself to remember, it’ll come eventually. I know this from experience.” Ella’s smile was what broke Clarabelle’s

    “Oh, don’t be so sure, Brother,” teased Clara with a wink. She turned to Ella and Damon who were on her left. “You know Ella, and you remember Damon, right?” “Yeah, sure.” Maxon nodded at Damon. “Hey, man.” But when his eyes moved to Ella, he gave her an awkward smile. “Ella.” He wasn’t usually this awkward around females especially one married to his brother. Hell, he wasn’t awkward with Ava, Thornton’s wife — maybe only for a few months after his brother told the family about Ava riding their neighbor Josh on the kitchen counter. Truth be told, the fact that he was slightly awkward with Ella was all his sister’s doing. Before Javier realized his feelings for Ella, Clarabelle had tried to set up a blind date between Ella and Maxon. Furthermore, Max had once said that Ella was hot to Clarabelle, and knowing his sister, she had indeed told Ella. Max didn’t have any feelings or crush on Ella, but still, it would take him a little while to not feel awkward. He wasn’t good around people

    “And you’re married,” reminded Ella, shaking her head. “True. But I’m not blind.” “How’re you, um,” he scratched the back of his neck uncomfortably, then cleared his throat before adding a soft and barely a whisper, “Princess.” With three sets of eyes watching him in curiosity mixed with surprise, Macon Summers had a faint blush on his high cheekbones. He cleared his throat one more time and focused his eyes on his little sister. “Sister?” Clarabelle let out a small giggle. “Sorry, guys, I made him call me that because he was the only one who only visited me once since I got admitted in this hospital.” There was a glint of mischief in her green eyes. After all, one of the reasons little sisters were born was to annoy their brothers. It was a birthright as much as it was an assignment. Maxon heaved an exasperated sigh. “I’ve apologized a dozen times, Clara.” He made his way to the empty spot on the right side of her bed. “I’m not going to make the same mistake of asking ‘what else

    “What about the cake?” Ella eagerly asked as she grabbed an album filled with photos of wedding cakes that she’d asked from the bakery who’d made her wedding cake. “Which one do you want? And how many tiers do you want it to be?” Clarabelle moved the magazine aside so Ella could place the album on her lap. She began checking each cake and reading the label placed next to each photo. “Earl grey sounds lovely,” said Ella, pointing out a cake on the right side of the page. “Or maybe chocolate fudge. That sounds lovely too. We can perhaps have it with white frosting or pale blue to match your dress.” “Darlings.” Damon dramatically sighed. “This is an easy question. You should stick to the most delicious cake in existence. Coffee and cognac. Keep it elegant, keep it tasty.” He stuck his forefinger and thumb together then kissed them like a chef. “No, thank you. I think I’ll stick to my favorite cake. Red velvet,” said Clara with a frown. “I’ve tasted coffee and cognac during Ella’s wed

    “Remember that it’s all about you, Darling,” said Damon with an exaggerating wave of his hand that made both Clara and Ella giggle. “You are the center of everything that day. Everything else should be a blur but you should be the only thing that’s crystal clear in everyone’s mind.” Clara shook her head, covering her face with both hands. “Gosh, you’re being way too much.” “It wouldn’t be Dee if he isn’t being too much,” commented Ella with a grin, teasing her best friend. She moved her gaze back to Clara and smiled. “But I have to say that he’s right, Clara. You should be the center of the event. So have you decided on your wedding theme yet?” “You guys are killing me,” said Clarabelle with a loud sigh. She brought her hands down and stared at the wedding magazines on her lap. Even though every girl had a vision of their wedding and how they wanted it to be, Clara had forgotten all about hers when she’d started her company. She’d thought of her company as her baby and that she was

    Hélène d’aureville had turned Draven Summers into a softie and he didn’t like it. Not even one bit. “Yes, I am fine, Mum.” He glanced at the door and frowned. Suddenly he felt annoyed that his sister’s boyfriend had not come out of there and it had been more than twenty minutes. “Let me knock on the door.” With determination, he approached the door, and then without even knocking on the door or giving any warning, he swung that door open. “Sister!” Draven greeted the two lovebirds loud enough for the neighboring rooms to hear. “Mum and Dad are here to see you. And of course, your fiancé.” He opened the door wider and held it so both of their parents could walk inside. Much to Draven’s dismay, his sister and her lover weren’t making out. They were at a polite distance. She was on the bed while he was sitting on the chair next to her bed. The atmosphere was different too, it was not as hot and bothered as it had been about half an hour ago. It seemed that they had been having a convers
