"Boss, there’s an intrusion outside!" Kate said breathlessly as she rushed into Sia’s study.Sia who was working from home for the day, immediately stopped what she was doing. Without a word, she headed outside. Just as she stepped out, a woman around her age came running toward her and hugged her tightly."My cupcake!""My delicious cookies!" "My baby!""My best friend!"Sia sighed and muttered, "Seriously?"Charlotte burst into laughter and hugged her even tighter. "Oh, Sia, I missed you terribly.""You look like hell," Sia said, taking a good look at her messy friend.In a quieter voice, Charlotte confessed, "I broke up with Archie.""You broke up with him a month ago," Sia said, unimpressed.“We finally told our families,” Charlotte explained, sounding more serious now.Sia raised an eyebrow. "How did they take it?"Charlotte sighed deeply. "Given everything that has been going on lately, they were relieved. They were actually happy I broke up with him.""Is everything okay at ho
Charlotte shook her head and said, "Enough of this sadness. I'm tired of it being everywhere."She glanced at Kate who was quietly wiping away her tears and added with a playful tone, "Sia, you are officially banned from talking about the past. Every time you do, poor Kate ends up in tears."Kate who was still dabbing at her eyes replied, "They treated my boss so horribly, Miss Charlotte. I have seen everything she went through. I'm just thankful she took me with her when she finally left that awful family."Kate had been Sia’s assistant since her time working with the Kennedy family. Her loyalty ran deep and her anger at how Sia had been treated was still fresh in her mind and heart. "One day, I swear, I will see that family pay," Kate said with a tone full of determination.Charlotte raised an eyebrow and smiled darkly. "Well, we would all love that. If Sia gives the word, I would take them out myself."Sia chuckled. "Patience. I prefer my revenge served cold."The three women spent
An entire week had passed, and Sia hadn’t heard a word from Leon. Frustrated and tired of waiting for him, she made up her mind to block him out of her thoughts completely. She threw herself into her work while focusing on the final stages of moving into her new office. Life returned to the same predictabl and, monotonous routine like it had before Leon stirred everything up in her life. She convinced herself that this was for the best. It was for the best that Leon left her life without troubling her more. Meanwhile, Leon spent the week reconnecting with his family. Guilt burdened on him for not being as present with them for a long time. He knew that it was wrong of him to ignore them. They had done nothing to deserve it. With his siblings home, his paternal grandparents also came for a visit which filled the house with both chaos and warmth and he decided to take a break from both work and his personal life to be with his family after a long time.“This little jungle will drive
Abella stood up with a smile and walked over to Leon. “Bro, come with me. I will show you my garden. I took a little help from Callum and he had sent me a lot of books that helped me.”Leon followed her to the other side of the wing to see his sister’s creations. What he found there amazed him. There was a stunning garden that looked like something out of a fairytale. There were flowers of every color and they looked outer worldly phenomenon. She had meticulously arranged a swing there whose ropes were entwined with flower vines.Leon couldn’t help but say, “It is so beautiful and peaceful.”Abella beamed with pride. She guided Leon to the swing and gave it a gentle push as he sat down. “Thank you for everything, brother.”Leon smiled warmly. “Silly Belly, you ae my little darling. I will always protect you. And thank you for trusting me.”Abella nodded, “I know you have been busy, bro. I’m not mad at you like Rhys and Callum.”Leon sighed softly. “But I am still sorry for not bein
“Why are you all ganging up on me?” Leon asked, feeling cornered as his mother sat on one side and his grandmother on the other. Meanwhile, his father, grandfather, and siblings acted oblivious and they were clearly avoiding his plea for help.“We are not asking you to marry her,” Anne reassured him. “Yes, your mom is right,” Ellora chimed in. “Leon, my dear grandchild, you mean the world to us. We just want you to meet more people. If you meet her and decide she is not for you, that’s fine. But at least give her a chance with an open mind. We are only concerned about you.”Leon scanned the room as he was hoping for some rescue but everyone seemed suddenly preoccupied. They were pretending not to notice his predicament. “Is she another rich brat?” Leon asked, raising an eyebrow skeptically.“Of course not,” Ellora replied, shaking her head. “Her parents are from California and they are both doctors and she works as a lawyer at a firm in New York. Her name is Sarah Lewis. She is twen
The Day of the DateLeon walked into the restaurant, followed by two young men who were clearly not going to leave his side. He was hatring every idea of this blind date scenario he was stuck in. he was one of the powerful men on the earth but he was being forced into something by two women! Alas, those two women happened to be his mother and grandmother. Why did he stayed at home for that many days? He knew that they would emotionally manipulate him to do something that they wanted but he did not. In the end, those two succeed. “Are you going to come inside too?” he asked, glancing back at the twins who were following two women’s ordersCallum who was the more serious of the twins, replied, “What if you decide to run away from here?”Leon sighed, rolling his eyes. An idea struck him as he said, “Callum, how about this? I will sponsor your entire project, not just a lab, but all of them.” He pulled out his black card while extending it toward Rhys. “Here, take it. You don’t even n
The twins grinned at each other as the excitement lit up their faces as they watched the drama unfold from a distance. They took pictures of the scene and quickly sent them to their sibling group chat.Coco: Where are you guys?Coco: Is this picture real?Rhys: Absolutely! Leon has a girlfriend! I am going to tell Mom and Dad.Coco’s eyes widened in panic.Coco: NO!!! Leon will kill us! Don’t do anything and just pretend you didn’t see anything!Rhys chuckled, clearly enjoying the situation.Rhys: But this is so interesting! Our brother is not asexual, he actually likes women! Hahaha! Isn’t this big news?Coco shook her head, knowing Rhys loved drama way too much. She decided to tag Callum in the group chat, hoping he could help keep things under control.Coco: Callum, you need to keep an eye on Sarah Lewis so she doesn’t cause any trouble. We can't let this news get to Mom and Dad. And don’t let anyone know about the woman with Leon. Keep it confidential. A moment later, Callum sent
When Sia came out of the meeting room, she expected to see Callum waiting, but instead, it was Leon. She tried to walk past him, but as soon as the others left, he stepped in front of her.“Let’s talk,” Leon said firmly.This man… what made him think that she would give him face? Huh! “What is there to talk about?” Sia shot back. “You have your own life, and I have mine. You even have a girlfriend now…”Leon interrupted, “Sia, Sarah was never my girlfriend.”She scoffed. “Oh, you remember her name but still insist she wasn’t your girlfriend. That’s rich.”Leon sighed. “She is just someone my mom and grandma set me up with.”Sia looked away, frustrated. “Why are you telling me all this, Leon? What difference does it make? We are practically strangers now. You can go on dates with anyone you want. Sarah can be your girlfriend; you can even marry her one day and have kids with her. Who am I to say anything?”Leon looked around and noticed Rhys and Callum standing a bit farther away. Rhy
