AT WADES FASHION HOUSE Two hours later, the meeting came to an end and Shayne couldn't control the smile on her face. It was a dream come true for her so, she couldn't wait to start. Since the deal was between the two companies, the contract was going to be signed by her manager back at Reyes Entertainment. “I should be on my way now. Thank you so much for the opportunity, Jacqueline.” Shayne stood up and hugged Jacqueline who returned the hug happily. “Thank you for taking the offer, Shayne. I will see you tomorrow then.” Jacqueline said and Shayne nodded. “Definitely. Goodbye.” Shayne’s eyes moved to Nathan and knowing that it would be rude to leave without saying a word to him, she waved. “Goodbye, Mr Wade.” She said and turned to leave without even waiting for a response from him. Nathan stared at her as she walked away. He wanted to speak to her but she seemed to be in a hurry. A few seconds after she left, he tapped his fingers nervously, ignoring whatever Jacqueline and th
"If you are not like them, why haven't you told the world about what they did to my sister?" Shayne pursed her lips at him and folded her arms while Nathan looked like he had been slapped in the face. No matter how he searched, he couldn't find an answer to give her. A few seconds later, he sighed and lowered his head. "I…I can't. It will destroy my family." He whispered but Shayne heard him loud and clear. She scoffed and rolled her eyes at his statement. "Of course, you can't. Why would you? It's like I said, you are a Wade. I hope that explains why I hate you." She said and stood up. "If that is all, Mr Wade, I'll take my leave now." She finished and turned around to leave but Nathan held her hand before she could leave and stopped her. "Wait, please." He pleaded. "I do not want us to be enemies, Shayne. We don't have to be enemies especially now that we will be working together. It will be best if we are on good terms, don't you think?" "You don't have to worry about that,
Anna returned home earlier than expected as she no longer had a reason to stay at the Wade mansion. She could stand Emma’s presence but, not Garcia’s. After Jacob, it was Garcia she hated the most, and the last thing she wanted was to be in the same room with her for a long time. She was sure she wouldn’t be able to hold herself from doing something she might regret.When she arrived home, both Shayne and Tristan had still not returned so, she decided to keep an eye on her son through her iPad. She had been doing that all through the car ride. Anna was sure this was going to be a new addiction of hers.She took off her clothes quickly, freshened up, and changed into new clothes before laying on the bed and taking her iPad out. When she opened the screen, Rowan’s face was smiling down at the camera as he played with it. Since Carla knew about the hidden camera, she had turned to bracelet around so Anna could see her son. It was only when they were in the presence of the other members o
After dinner, Anna followed Tristan into his room, telling him that they needed to speak. After their meeting at the dining table, she had been disturbed. “Is there a problem, Anna?” He asked, getting comfortable on his bed. Anna took a deep breath before nodding and sitting next to him. “What is your relationship with the Wades?” She suddenly asked and Tristan froze for a second before recollecting himself quickly. “What?” He asked. “You know everything about my relationship with the Wades but I do not know why you have so much hatred for them. How can we be partners if you continue to keep things like this from me? I should know what relationship you have with them if we are to work together.” Anna said, her eyes begging him to say something. Tristan lowered his head and shut his eyes, battling within himself. “Please, Tristan. It's obvious that this a big secret that you have been carrying for a long time but you can trust me.” Anna sighed and reached out to touch him.
“I was not able to protect my mother from that family but I swear on my life, Anna. I will protect you and my son.”These words kept replaying in Anna’s mind all night.‘Does Tristan think of Asher as his son?’ The thought went through Anna’s mind even when she closed her eyes.The thought of Tristan living with her and her son, Asher as his father made butterflies fill her tummy. They would make the perfect family!“Jesus Christ, Anna! The man hasn’t even said anything! You’re getting way ahead of yourself.” She scolded and shook her head violently before forcing herself to bed, pushing thoughts about Tristan to the back of her head.Before she gave in to the darkness, she suddenly remembered that Tristan was William Wade’s first son. If that was true, it meant that he was the true heir to the Wade empire.Anna wondered if Garcia knew about it or if any of her sons knew about a secret child.A smirk appeared on Anna’s lips as she realized that she just found another secret that could
“The project will be concluded in three years; during those three years, forty percent of every profit made will belong to Reyes Estate. After three years, Reyes Estate will own fifteen percent of Wades Estate. Are both parties comfortable with this?” Tristan’s lawyer, Carl asked, holding the documents that would seal the fates of the two families. “Yes. Please, carry on.” William answered immediately with a broad smile and Tristan nodded before motioning for Mr Blackwood to continue. Once he had confirmed that both parties were in agreement, he opened the document and passed it to Tristan while William’s lawyer, Brent, handed a copy of it to William. Under the watchful eyes of the press, both parties signed the documents, and the project was set in motion. With the same broad smile on his face, William stood and held out his hands to Tristan for a handshake. “Partners?” William said and taking the large cameras watching into consideration, Tristan stood and took the hand
“I have made up my mind, Anna. I will divorce Emma and marry you.” Jacob said with a wide grin on his face while Anna almost left her mouth wide open out of shock.This was the last thing she expected him to say. Even though she had given him the ultimatum herself, she didn’t expect him to obey her.“What did you just say?” Anna asked with her brows creased and her mouth parted slightly.“You heard me, Anna. I have decided to follow my heart and my heart wants you.” Jacob replied and took a step forward, closing their distance.“I know, Anna. I know I messed up. I shouldn’t have thrown you out the way I did and believe me, I have been living in regret for a while now.” Jacob confessed, his eyes showing how sincere he was.“Since you returned, I have been able to take my mind off you, Anna. I spend every single day thinking of you and wishing to be the man next to you. Do you know how jealous I get whenever I see you next to Tristan? That is meant to be my place, Anna.” He raised his v
After Jacob’s weird comment, Emma begins to notice that he is more vocal about the way he feels about her unlike before when he barely spoke. The Wade mansion suddenly became hard for her to live in thanks to Jacob. “You’re not even fit to be a mother. I should have gotten a better woman to raise my son. You are doing a terrible job.” Jacob said during one of the family’s dinners, leaving Emma stunned. “Why would you speak to your wife like that?” Garcia scolded immediately while Emma stared at him with wide eyes but Jacob only scoffed and rolled his eyes. “Wife? Please, mother. We both know she is nothing of that sort. The only reason she is in this house is because we needed a woman with a strong family name as my wife.” Jacob retorted and pointed his fingers at Emma. “This woman has done nothing but lazy around since she got into this house while pretending to be my wife to the whole world.” He snarled and turned to his father. “Let's be very honest, father. We don't need her f
