Thankfully, Nicholas did not realize that Roseanne called Ellora as mom. Perhaps, it was because he was lost in worry about his mother. Whatever, the reason was she was glad that he didn't notice anything or else she would be unable to answer him.

Roseanne asked, “Shall we go to her?”

Ellora sat by herself, sitting with a sad expression, as if wishing someone would come talk to her. Watching Ellora sad, her heart ached, wishing the former had someone to talk to. However, Nicholas did not seem to agree with her. He had some other thoughts about the whole situation.

Nicholas gently held her hand, preventing her from approaching Ellora, and suggested, “I think we should let her be with herself.”

For some reason, he believed that his mother needed space to be sad.

Roseanne found herself agreeing with Nicholas's recommendation. Inside her, there was a subtle acknowledgment that maybe at this moment, he was right. Standing side by side, they kept a respectful distance, giving Ellora the

    “Hello,” Roseanne smiled softly as she saw Nicholas arriving with Ellora. The kids ran to them and he caught Coco in the air while Leon stuck to Ellora. They loved to be with her as much as they could and vice versa. Coco was spoiled rotten by Nicholas while Leon was getting quite attached to Ellora. "Hi," Nicholas warmly greeted her. Adorned in an emerald-coloured dress, she looked absolutely stunning. The vibrant colour complemented her tan skin and set off the radiant contrast with her red long hair. He could not move his eyes away from her figure. If her beauty was once soft and soothing, it now exuded a bold and cutting-edge allure."I saved us the best table," Roseanne announced, leading them to a spot where a live band serenaded the room. The ambience was adorned with captivating decorations, mesmerizing everyone with its beauty. As luck would have it, it was Valentine's Day too, and the air was filled with the joyous presence of couples celebrating their special day. The cafe

    “Mom, are you sure that you don't want to come with me?” Nicholas asked. It was the day of the festival where all of them were accompanying him. However, his mother just dropped a bomb on him, saying that she would not be able to attend it. As much as he understood her situation, he badly wanted her to attend it. If she didn't attend, Roseanne wouldn't come with him either and he wanted to spend quality time with her. “I have a cold,” Ellora said, blowing her nose. “You all can go. I don't think I can bear the noise and cold weather.”She didn't know what was wrong with her son who was insisting on attending a festival that he never showed interest in before. At the same time, Roseanne and the kids came to their house. They had gotten ready for the event. Nicholas told them that they all would go together and she didn't need to drive separately. “Don't break the children's hearts,”Ellora said. Although she could not go, she didn't want children to feel sad about it. It would break

    While Nicholas and Roseanne were having a good time together at the festival, Coco and Leon were having fun with their grandmother. When Roseanne was away from her children, she would give a phone to them to contact her whenever they wished to. “Hello!” Coco said in excitement when the phone rang. “Who is it?” Leon asked. “It's daddy!” Coco told him. Leon ran to her and stood next to her while she was talking on the phone. Nathaniel said to the children, “Why is the home locked? Where are you guys? Your mommy's phone is switched off.”“Daddy, you returned?” Coco asked. She looked at Leon and said, “Daddy came back. We are coming.” She hung up the call and asked Leon to go home where he was waiting for them. Coco and Leon ran from there without any thought. Ellora who was struggling with cold and fever saw children running alone out of the home and ran behind them. Today, Nicholas had left Johnson behind for the security of his mother and children as he was scared after his moth

    “Nathaniel?” Ellora whispered. Nathaniel stood tall and did not give much reaction. He was acting like he did not recognise the woman standing in front of him. However, Ellora was feeling everything that he was not. “Yes, Grandma, he is my daddy,” Coco declared, holding his hand. “Do we look similar?”Tears trickled down Ellora's face and she nodded her head. “Very similar.”Coco was holding her father's hand and couldn't understand the shift in the air while Leon could understand everything. He knew that there was something between his father and grandmother that was suspicious. “Daddy, Mommy is not at home. Shall we all go to Grandma's place?” Coco asked. She wanted to bring him to the new place where she had made friends. She had been gushing about Nicholas and Ellora to her father and now she had an opportunity to show him, she did not want to miss it. “I don't think it is a good option,” Nathaniel told his daughter. He was very averse to even entering the gates of Nicholas' h

    Ellora was standing in front of the window, looking out at the serene night beach view. Suddenly, a car stopped in front of the main door. A man stepped out of the car and was entering her house gate. She instantly recognised the man. Since she did not want him to come across Nicholas, she ran to open the door. If he rang the bell, Nicholas would get up and they would come across each other. She ran to open the door. Before he could ring the bell, she opened the door, startling Nathaniel. “Nate,” She whispered. She was emotional to see him in front of her again. Last time, he left without even saying anything to her. “Can you call Nicholas Hart?” Nathaniel asked him, blankly. He did not want to waste time on anything and just wanted to do what he came here for and leave immediately. “No,” Ellora said. “You cannot meet him. If you want to say, tell me.”She did not want Nicholas and Nathaniel to come across each other. Nathaniel stared at him for a while and he said, “Okay. I wan

    After that night, Roseanne and Nicholas maintained their distance. Ellora ensured Nicholas kept his distance from Roseanne and the children, fulfilling her promise to Nathaniel. Meanwhile, Roseanne's guilt prevented her from reaching out to Nicholas. She realized Nathaniel had worked hard to provide her with a good life and that she shouldn't jeopardize her family's security for fleeting happiness.On the other hand, Nicholas began treating Roseanne the way she had always hoped, which only deepened her attraction to his attention. However, this attraction was morphing into a dangerous attachment and she was certain that it would have lethal consequences in the future. If possible, she had to stop her contact with him instantly. For weeks, they were calling each other frequently. It had become a habit to talk to him daily. And suddenly, they were not on talking terms. This major shift in her life was not acceptable to her easily yet she was working through it. For a week, the childre

    “Did you hear something?” Ellora asked Johnson who was standing next to her in the garden while she was sitting on the lawn. Johnson sent a guard outside to check on the matter and the guard came with the information. “Madam, there is an accident in the neighbourhood,” The guard informed her. “It's the child that came here that got involved in it.”“Child?” Ellora asked with dread in her heart. Please, no…“Which child?” She questioned, praying that it was not one of her grandchildren. “It's the little boy,” The guard came with the information. “The neighbours said that the boy was in the car when a truck came out of nowhere and hit it. He is injured. The neighbour's doctor is giving him first aid while the ambulance is on the way.”“Send the emergency aid to the children immediately,” Ellora ordered. Along with a security team, an ambulance and a team of doctors were always ready to aid the Hart family if they were hurt. She ordered her guards to send the aid to Leon. If they wai

    “Doctor, how is my son?” Roseanne asked when the doctor exited Leon's room. She had been waiting for an update. She inquired a lot of nurses but none of them gave her a proper answer. It seemed they did not know what was going on inside the operation theater. This made her more stressed about her son's condition. The doctor's answer put her in a further predicament, “The child has critical injuries. We performed the surgery but he is still in a critical condition. Only after observing him, can we say anything.”Roseanne’s tears flowed uncontrollably. Why was this happening with her son? What wrong did he do to deserve all of this? At this time, Nicholas was not here as he was resting after donating blood. Sitting alone in the empty hallway took a toll on her heart. She was sitting alone at this time when her phone rang. It was Ellora who was calling her to inquire about Leon's condition. She was so thankful that there was someone to talk to. Roseanne could not control her tears as

    It was Abella's 19th birthday party. The Hart Princess had insisted on keeping it a simple, intimate family gathering and nothing extravagant. Even the cake had been baked by Abella herself, as she didn’t want to make a big deal of the day.Though it was low-key, the family showered her with thoughtful gifts. Among them, Alisha’s gift stood out and was the one Abella cherished most.Abella’s eyes widened in surprise. “I can’t believe you thought of this,” she said, grinning from ear to ear. “Now I can drive around without everyone staring at me in our flashy cars. I will blend in with my friends!”If Abella had struggled in life, it was blending in with her peers and not letting them know that she was a real-life princess. Her biggest struggle was being a princess but acting like a pauper. Rhys raised an eyebrow. “What’s so special about a car? If you wanted one, you could have bought it ages ago.”Abella chuckled. “I know, but Alisha’s whole point was to get me out of my comfort zon

    Sebastian stared at his phone. It had been three days since he had texted Charlotte, but she hadn’t replied. He told himself she was probably busy with work and might have forgotten to check her messages. Deciding to try again, he sent another text.But the silence continued.By the end of the day, frustration had settled in and left him restless.At the dinner table, Carter spoke up. “I’m going to Mexico this weekend.”Seraphina frowned. “What about your health? Are you sure you can handle this trip?”“It’s an important matter,” Carter said firmly. “Mr Roudgreiz was the one who helped me build my business after I left the King family. Now that I have surpassed their entire fortune, I can’t turn my back on my benefactor when she needs me.”Carter’s story with the King family was another sad tale of his life that ruined everything but he never liked to talk about it with his kids and he did not wish to make them feel guilty.

    Today, Charlotte and Abella went shopping with Alisha. Beatrice had specifically asked Charlotte to get Alisha involved in normal ‘girl activities,’ since Alisha often had rather quirky interests.“This is as boring as ever,” Alisha said flatly, looking unimpressed.“Come on, shopping is fun,” Abella replied enthusiastically. Of course, she was the one who had bought the most outfits so far. While Charlotte tagged along more for the outing, Abella was genuinely excited to shop. Alisha, on the other hand, had been reluctantly dragged along.“I like shopping with Sia and Estelle better,” Abella said, a little frustrated. “You two are boring!”The remark stung Alisha. “What could you possibly have in common with them?” she asked, her voice filled with curiosity and maybe some annoyance.Abella shrugged. “Well, we don’t have much in common, but I like them. Sia pampers me, but she also treats me like a friend, and Estelle—she is becoming my best friend these days. She is so fun to be arou

    The morning came, and Leon, who had stayed up late, woke up equally late. As he stirred awake, his eyes landed on Sia seated at the breakfast table, indulging in her morning sugar rush. Her plate held an extra-sweet coffee paired with some fruit on the side which was an attempt at balance that he found amusing but chose not to comment on. She had peculiar tastes, and if sugar was her thing, so be it. She knew her limits.He liked seeing her enjoying her life finally. Life was never smooth when it came to her. She had her fair share of struggled. Not just fair share but abundance of struggles. It was only after her life threatening accident that she began living her life to the fullest and not just working on autopilot. “Good morning, sunshine,” she greeted him with a bright smile.He groaned softly, walking over to her and wrapping her in a warm hug from behind. Resting his head on her shoulder, he complained, “You left me all alone in bed.”She chuckled lightly, patting his cheek a

    That night, as Leon prepared to leave, Ellora looked at him with a smile. “Why don’t you stay the night? Callum and Abella are staying for Alisha and it would be nice to have you here too.”As a grandmother in her later age, all she wanted was her whole family to be surrounded by her. She wanted all her grandkids to stay under the same roof even if it was a wishful thinking on her part. Anne while noticing Leon’s hesitation decided to add with a laugh. “Mom, let him go. Sia is at home and he is probably miserable without her. Let’s face it, Leon needs Vitamin Sia more than he needs sunlight.”Ellora sighed, shaking her head lightly. “Ever since they moved in together, he visits so rarely. It’s like we hardly see him anymore.”Anne couldn’t resist teasing. “Mom, you are starting to sound like a bitter mother-in-law trying to blame everything on the woman! To be honest, Leon wasn’t exactly a regular visitor before either. If anything, since Sia came into his life, he visits more often b

    When Sia heard the doorbell ring, her heart skipped a beat. She thought Leon had arrived, but it felt too soon as they had just hung up the phone. Curiosity piqued, she opened the door. A smile lit up her face when she saw who was standing there.“Mama!” Nico called out excitedly, rushing into her arms.She bent down, showering him with kisses. “Aren’t you my favourite boy?” she cooed, her tenderness making him giggle.Nico wrapped his arms around her tightly while returning her kisses.“Hey, what about me?” Rhys asked with a grin as he stepped in behind Nico.Sia straightened up, surprised to see him. “Rhys, what are you doing here? I thought you were having dinner at home.”Rhys sighed dramatically. “I was excited about that too, but then I saw a devil and decided to escape here instead.”“A devil?” Sia asked, leading them inside.Rhys groaned. “We have the most annoying guest tonight.”Sia tilted her head curiously. “Who is it?”Before answering, Rhys took a deep breath and sniffed

    “Did you meet Coco?” Leon asked.“I did,” Alisha said, “Abella told me that Coco may or may not have a boyfriend. What’s that supposed to mean?”Leon smirked. “It means Coco’s mysterious as always. Even I don’t know for sure.”Alisha added with a playful tone, changing the subject, “And you have got a new cutie pie at your place. He is adorable.”Leon chuckled. “Which one?”“The hot one,” Alisha teased with a grin.“Nash?” Leon guessed, laughing. “He is a good-looking kid, I will give you that.”“No,” Alisha said, raising an eyebrow with a mischievous glint. “His dad.”Leon burst into laughter. “That’s your uncle, kid!”“Hey! Who are you calling ‘kid’?” Alisha protested, lightly smacking his arm. “I’m twenty-five, Nathaniel Hart. That’s not a kid at all!”Leon smirked, clearly enjoying teasing her. “Whatever you say, little Alisha.”Before Alisha could fire back, Anne’s voice floated from the hallway. “Leon, stop irritating Alisha!”Alisha grinned triumphantly, turning to Leon. “See?

    Sia was in a cheerful mood as she returned home from the Hart mansion. Feeling inspired, she decided to prepare a special dinner for herself and Leon. Usually, the chefs handled meals, but today, she sent them away and started cooking on her own as she was excited to surprise Leon.Leon had told her earlier in the day that he would be late, but now it was past nine, and he still wasn’t home. Unable to wait any longer, she picked up her phone and called him.“Sia, baby, where are you?” Leon answered, sounding surprised. “I just got home, and you are not here.”“I am at home,” Sia replied, glancing around her surroundings with confusion.But then, she heard Nico’s cries in the background of the call. Her heart sank a little as she pieced things together. “Wait... are you at the Hart house?” she asked hesitantly.“Yes, I’m home,” Leon said casually, not realizing what she meant.“Oh…” Sia whispered, a pang of disappointment in her voice.Leon picked up on her tone immediately. “What happ

    "Aren’t you a bit too free these days?" Charlotte asked when she saw Sia at the Hart mansion again, sitting with Anne and enjoying cakes."Ma, look at Charlotte! She’s always teasing me just because I come here two or three times a week," Sia said, pretending to be offended. These days, she was too free. She had nothing much to do. So, she will find time and come to Anne and the two of them will have blast. "Coco, don’t trouble my Sia," Anne said with a gentle smile."Mommy, she has a perfect life, and she comes here every time just to flaunt it," Charlotte complained, crossing her arms.Anne laughed. "It’s not her fault that she is so beautiful, super talented, and has a man who loves her deeply. She has all of that because she worked hard for it. If you work hard too, you will have it.""Mommy, you have completely fallen for this demon," Charlotte grumbled.
