Liam had been restless all night, his heart beating fast, and his thoughts racing hard because of the last call he had with Nadia, before the phone suddenly went off after she called him the previous night. And ever since then, her phone had been switched off no matter how many times he called.

His family and Evelyn's family were all in Paris for the pre-wedding yacht party, and it was going to last till the next day with their closest family and friends, after which all of them would fly back to California in the evening to prepare for the main wedding that would take place.

However, he had not been able to pick up any other person's calls, or get dressed for the yacht party since it was the morning of the next day already, hoping that she would call him back if she realized that he had been trying to call her several times.

Unable to hold the anxiety in his heart any longer, he waited till the next morning, and phoned an investigator who was a friend of his to go and check up on

Please do Liam. It’s time to rectify the situation. You let it go wayyy too far, and Nadia has been acting too dumb about you two.

    Carlton sat across from Liam on the private plane they were taking to Chicago, trying Nadia's number countless times about how far they had gone in the investigation of where Stacy had been traced to. “Her number is not going through,” he informed Hudson, whose demeanor was still slightly indifferent to him because of how pissed he still was. “She is probably busy at work. We can go without her and inform her of whatever happens there,” Hudson replied under his breath, not believing that he couldn't take a cue of what could be the possible reason for Nadia not picking up her calls. “Alright then,” Carlton slouched back on the seat after he informed the pilot to get the plane ready for takeoff, feeling so uncomfortable with the deep silence that was floating in the air. The tension between them had lessened a bit more than the day Hudson first heard about the relationship he had with his sister for all those years, but he was still uncomfortable saying a word around him to prevent

    “Marilyn. What hospital is the child in?! We will bring her here now and have her treated,” Carlton hollered angrily on the phone, as he received the call from the most obnoxious person in his life, after she had tried calling him incessantly, sending text messages and even emails concerning Daisy's state of health.“Why are you being difficult?! This is about your fucking child here. Ten million dollars is nothing to you!” she retorted, cursing as loudly as she could. Through all her efforts to speak to him, she was asking him for money to complete the child's outstanding medical bills and further surgery. Because of his futile investigation of the possible places Stacy might be, and if she had traveled out of the city, he had been so frustrated all day. “She is not my….” Carlton's eyes compulsively shot to the left and right to see if anyone was watching, before continuing his discussion, “Child!” He hurled under his breath. Her calling him aggravated his anger even more, and he

    “You bastard!” Nadia glared from where she was still sitting, tied to the spot, as soon as her eyes came in contact with who it was that had put her in misery overnight. A scornful chuckle rolled out of his lips as he watched her struggle with the rope that held her on a spot, her heated gaze boring into his eyes like she would melt him to the floor. “You don't look happy to see me,” he expressed his disappointment with pursed lips, before a malicious smile that riled Nadia from deep within, curved his lips. “Why should I?! Why are you doing this to me?!” she echoed, her voice rising with incredulity, cutting through their silence like a blade. She couldn't believe the monster. “I wanted an audience with you. Just me and you,” A condescending smile played on his lips, as he began to stride in circles, his eyes sneaking a taunting glance at her. “You wanted an audience? And you bring me here like this?! Is this how to get an audience?” Nadia's eyes stung with tears as she struggle

    Liam suddenly appeared on the yacht at the last minute when it was about to take off, when everyone thought that he was not going to come any longer. All day, they had tried reaching him on phone to not avail, and knocked on the door to his room several times for him to go out for breakfast. He answered no one, and remained indoors till it was afternoon. One thing they were all so sure about, was that he was still at the premises of the hotel they were all lodged in, which belonged to Liam's uncle. The bodyguards around would have made it extremely difficult for him to leave even if he wanted to, in which their numbers surprisingly increased after he went to confront Evelyn. “What happened?” His mother ran to ask him as he approached, her face etched with deep concern as she cupped his face with her slender hands, her eyes roaming his body to check if everything was fine with him. The others also moved hastily towards his direction to inquire if everything was well with him. “L

    Mr. Austin Wilson stormed into the living room of his mansion, his footsteps heavy as they echoed with the weight of his fury, and his hands clenched into fists at his sides as they trembled with the intensity of his anger. His face was blazing with dark emotions, his eyes burning with a fire that could not conceal how mad he was. “Where is he?!” he demanded, his voice a low, dangerous growl, “Where is your son?!” He moved closer, as he glared at his wife, who was sitting down on one of the couches, her face pale as bleak. Her eyes raised to look at her husband for a few seconds, clueless of what to even say at that moment, as her eyes darted back to the floor so miserably. She was the most distraught about the news of Liam's sudden absence, and yet her husband was asking her for his whereabouts. “Am I not speaking to you?!” he raged, his insides burning with so much fury.‘How could Liam humiliate them in that way?!’“I have no idea, Austin,” she whispered, her voice trembling, as

    The hospital doors burst open as a man sprinted inside, befuddled and out of breath, in which cradled in his arms was a lady whose body was limp and lifeless, her face pale and streaked with blood. “Help! Someone, please help!” Xander shouted, his voice screaming urgency and fear, as he ran towards the nurse he saw approaching, “Please, she is dying.” The young beautiful nurse sprang into action immediately, as she alerted her colleagues instantly, “We need a gurney here, now!” she called out to her colleagues. Within a few seconds, a team of nurses and doctors rushed forward as they swiftly took her from his arms and transferred the body to the gurney, her head lolling to one side. Her face was swollen and bruised, her lip split and bleeding, as well as angry contusions marked her arms and neck.“Who is she?” One of the doctors who came instantly turned to question Xander, “And how did she sustain these injuries?” She observed the body lying on the bed, and noticed that it seemed

    “The child is dead?! Are you kidding me?” Marilyn's words hung in the air, incomprehensible, and absurd as Carlton felt a wave of dizziness wash over him as if his mind had been plunged into darkness. “I am sorry to announce this, Carlton. The doctors tried all they could to save her life, but it wasn't successful,” Marilyn's loud sobs wracked out of her throat violently, her voice trembling with angst. “Wait. Wait,” Carlton shut his eyes tight, his voice barely audible while finding it hard to breathe as he tried to process the impossible news again. For a moment, he was struck dumb, as his thoughts spiraled into confusion as numbness spread to his limbs like wildfire, the phone slightly slipping in his grip. “What do you mean?!” He demanded imperiously, his emotions distant and unfocused. “I know this is hard to accept, but it is true. Daisy is gone. She died this morning,” Marilyn's words slapped Carlton hard on his face again, and cast him into an endless pit of instant des

    The first golden rays of dawn filtered through the window past the thin curtains of her room at the inn, casting a glow upon the lady's face sprawled on the bed, causing her eyes to slowly blink awake. A slight moan escaped her lips as her body contorted into the blanket that she snuggled into, and her arms suspended in the air to stretch and crack out her sore bones. The first thought that occurred to her as she took time to savor in the serenity of the surroundings, and listen to the faint chirping of birds outside which made nature come alive, was how she had not slept for many days since she arrived at the inn. Last night, the kind old innkeeper had offered her a cup of tea and it worked like magic. Carefully, she lifted her body off the bed, swung her legs over the side of the bed, her bare feet touching the cool wooden floor, and took a deep breath before she rose on her feet and made her way to the small window to push it open. She took a few minutes standing by the win

    It was a beautiful morning at a big, luxurious wedding hall, where every detail had been meticulously crafted to exude a sense of elegance and sophistication, and Carlton and Stacy stood at the altar holding their hands and gazing into each other’s eyes with a synchronizing smile curving their lips, as they prepared to take their wedding vows. Stacy donned a voluminous luxurious lacy white gown of exquisite and intricate adorning diamond that shimmered with fierce intensity of beauty, as she looked so radiant like a celestial being before the altar. Her veil softly framed her beautiful face like a halo, as she held a bouquet, her eyes illuminating so much affection for the man that was standing beside her. Carlton was daunting and dashingly ethereal in his custom-made black suit, his tousled, dark hair framing his breathtaking beauty and piercing beautiful eyes, which were a mesmerizing shade of deep blue that gazed into Stacy's eyes, with sheer happiness radiating within him.

    It was still the early hours of the morning, and the atmosphere was still quite dampened with barely any sign of sunlight, when Carlton entered the room to find Stacy still sleeping. He shook her shoulder tenderly and teased around her face, as she stirred for a few seconds without waking up. Then again, Carlton whispered something into her right ear as she remained in her deep slumber, which aroused a ticklish feeling in her as her hand tried to rub her ear. “Wake up,” Carlton whispered with a smile, and she finally turned in response to his barely audible voice, her eyes flickering awake, even if she was still slightly groggy. “What is going on, Carl?” she mumbled tiredly as a yawn escaped her lips, but a smile curved his lips instead as his hands grabbed her body and pulled her up from the bed, “What time is it?”“Shhhh. You will wake the kids up,” he cautioned, seeing that she was chuckling quite loudly, as she planted a kiss on her cheek and neck, “Put on something and follo

    Months flew by faster than expected, and Stacy had been living her best life with Carlton after Nadia moved to Phoenix with Liam. They kept in close contact through video calls and phone calls, telling one another about the new things they were now invested in and how the new city moved in. Nadia launched her new book after she moved to Phoenix, and better than she thought it would be, it was doing excellently well through the influence of her lovely lover, and social media, which gained her thousands of followers in less than six months. And with the brilliant response and love she received for her medical romance book, she started a sequel. She and Liam moved to the penthouse of a hundred-floor skyscraper in one of the wealthy neighborhoods in the city, which had the best view that she could ever wish for as a home. More than anything, Nadia's life had changed beautifully, more than she could have ever imagined, because of the people she got to meet in her life. Within those few

    “Arhhhhhhhhh. I am feeling the heat,” muttered Jasmine, who kept chuckling endlessly as she watched the two endearing couples. “This is making me hate that I am single,” Fiona rolled her eyes playfully and took a glance at Connor, whose attention had been on her for a few seconds, which caused both of them to look away instantly. “Please, do not gloat about your sweet love in our presence,” Jasper whined with a chortle, as everyone giggled wildly as they nudged one another. Natasha raised her glass in a toast amid the sweet public display of affection, “To friendship, and new beginnings!” She declared, her high-pitched voice reverberating everywhere in the garden. Everyone around them lifted their glasses, joining in the toast with cheers and clinking glasses, as they continued to engage in light conversations, while getting prepared for a new dimension of the party. As the evening progressed, the party moved to the center of the garden, where a large open space had been cleared

    It was the night of Stacy's baby shower and the party that Nadia had planned went better than anyone could have imagined, especially because of the additional guests that were invited, who were mostly Stacy's and Liam's colleagues from medical school. She invited Ryan too, but he was far out of the country and would not be able to make it. The garden in the mansion was transformed beautifully into a perfect banquet, and the soft hum of beautiful music played in the background, blending seamlessly with the laughter and chatter of the people present, as they ate and drank with their faces lit with joy and merriment. Liam and Stacy stood by one of the tables as they welcomed their few friends from the party that was invited from their medical school, while Nadia invited about four people from her new department at the WILLAND hospital without minding the ordeal everyone's tongues had put her through in the hospital. “I still can't believe you are having a baby!” One of their friends

    It had been almost two weeks since Stacy came back into Carlton's life, and their most torrid glow of love had been rekindled countless times so that they couldn't even keep a record anymore. They could not stop snuggling into each other at every moment like young puppies. He was spending his vacation time with her as he had planned to do before, as they caught up with everything they had missed, while he had to spend time with her, and accompanied her to the hospital for her medical checkup. Stacy asked him to keep the house and not move out as he planned, since the entire estate belonged to him, because every memory that they had cherished together was made in the house. It was a beautiful moment when she talked about starting a family together with him in that same house. It was no old news anymore that he was seen spotted with a pregnant woman in a facecap at different places, as media houses blew up with headlines, wondering who the strange lady he was seen with was.

    “I am sorry it took this long to come back,” Stacy whispered softly, her heart aching terribly the more she saw the sullen expression etched upon his face as he gazed incredulously at her. He was finding it so hard to believe that it was truly her. Tears streamed down Carlton's face as he slowly buried his head in her shoulder, when he could finally comprehend in his head that it was truly her, “I thought I lost you forever, Stace,” he choked out, his voice laced with so much angst, breaking, “Where have you been? I… I searched for you everywhere.” She sobbed softly, clutching at him with her arms wrapped around his back as if her life depended on it, “I… am so sorry,” she whispered, “I ... .just lost my mind, you know. The truth was too much for me to bear.” “I am so sorry, Stace,” Carlton's voice was heavy as he apologized, “I am so sorry for making you go through a lot by yourself. Please forgive me,” he implored her deeply. “I am more sorry, Carlton. I shouldn't have been sel

    TWO MONTHS LATER It had been the longest days of Carlton's life, and he could not even remember how long it had been because he was back to the same pathetic state Stacy met him months ago, when he had just silently lived the saddest and most pathetic life without her. He had begun working from a tiny space in a suffocating and tight space where he separated himself from the world and the world of his own mind, which haunted him with sadness and a pressing weight of depression with which he had no idea when it would end. Though the company was back on track because he had distracted himself by working restlessly to surpass his goals for the remaining half of the year in just a few weeks, he had been like a ghost, haunting the light of the deep darkness that had taken over his happiness. After Alison's cremation, he had sent a lot of emails to Hudson to talk to him, and had even journeyed to his company on several occasions to see him, but every one of his efforts to get through
