The wedding preparations started immediately after the engagement. Almost everyone was trying to help the newly engaged couple with preparation. Leon and Coco were very excited about the wedding as it was the first wedding they would see. Usually, wedding venues wouldn't allow children their age, but Emery wanted her niece and nephew there for her special day.

Today, Emery was shopping for her wedding dress with Ellora and Roseanne. She was trying out different dresses before deciding on the final one. Ellora had to convince Emery to let her buy the wedding dress as her daughter didn't wish to take any financial help from her family. However, being a mother, she always wanted to be a part of her daughter's happy day, and how could she let Emery have a compromised wedding dress when she could have the world at her feet? In the end, Emery agreed.

When Emery decided on the dress, Roseanne and Ellora were looking for dresses for themselves for the wedding party. Roseanne liked a turquoi

    “You are very close to your daughter, aren't you?” Mrs Taylor asked the question. When she asked this question, Roseanne had a weird feeling ignited in her heart. Why would someone ask these silly questions? Aren't mothers and daughters supposed to be close to each other? She had been suspicious of Mrs Taylor always, and because of this lens on her eyes, she would always see the latter in a bad light. Every time, her heart would be telling her that she should stay away from this woman as she was looking for an opportunity to cheat or take advantage of her. Then again, what did she possess that Nrs Taylor could take advantage of? “Which mother is not close to their daughters?” Roseanne asked the question when she realised that she made the woman wait for too long. However, this time, Mrs Taylor surprised her with the answer. Instead of saying something sarcastic, she gave her a very vulnerable answer, “Well, some are not given the opportunity.”Roseanne chuckled. “That's bullshit. T

    “What's wrong with our stepmother? Why is she talking to that woman? Where does her loyalty lie?” Beatrice whispered. Just because they were following Emery and Ellora didn't mean their attention was not on Roseanne. In reality, it was Roseanne who had taken all of their attention. All they could focus on the entire building was her. They didn't know if it was jealousy or curiosity; they were watching her entire moves. With every movement, they would wonder why Nicholas chose her over Sabrina, who was more elegant, beautiful and influential. If it was Beauty that Nicholas was after, Sabrina possessed more of it. Even a blind could see the latter's worth, but why did Nicholas throw her far and choose someone like Roseanne? It was not that Roseanne was not beautiful; she was. She could give a competition to Mrs Taylor, but it was not beauty that was needed to survive in their circle. As if Nicholas’ subject was challenging to digest for the two of them, they saw their stepmother givi

    A wicked idea entered Emery's mind. It was a perfect time to introduce Luke to everyone. She thought she was taking advantage of Mrs Taylor, but it was the other way around. When the latter said her piece, she had everything predicated–especially Emery's reaction. Emery turned to Roseanne and her mother. Holding their hands, she tried to convince them, “Yes, Mom and Roseanne. We should definitely go. I like Bella's parties. They are fun. Trust me, Roseanne, you will love them. And she always takes care of the children, too. You will not be troubled.”In the end, Roseanne and Ellora could not escape. Emery had fallen prey to someone's twisted games.Although the Hart family was at the top of the food chain, there were some boundaries for them. First of all, they could not act superior in their circle, or they would end up portrayed as tyrants. Even if they were tyrants, they had to maintain a positive outlook.

    The entire Hart family went to the party organised by Mrs Taylor. The party was lavish, with guests from the elitist section of the country. Everything looked so grand. Mr Taylor and Mrs Taylor were using this party to gain as many allies as possible since the elections were close, and he needed the support of more and more people. Since there were many important people present, everyone was trying to make conversation with people in case the connection come helpful them further. However, Roseanne was standing in the middle of the hall, quiet. Nicholas could sense her reservation. She had not been talking much since the time they left home. Seeing her like this made him uncomfortable, too. Nicholas told her, “If you don't want to be here, we can return.”To him, this party has no use. If she said she wanted to return, he would leave instantly with her and the kids. She shook her head, “No.” To be honest, she was scared about him. She wanted to protect him from any harm that was co

    “Who is this little angel?” Mrs Taylor cooed the little girl when she met Nicholas and his children. “Isn't she cute, husband?”Mr Taylor, who was trying to stare at the little girl, nodded. “She is.”Coco hid behind her mother as she saw two unknown people interested in her. She was shy and uncomfortable in their presence. “Hello,” Mr Taylor extended his hand to the little girl. Coco looked at Nicholas, who nodded with a smile, giving her some reassurance. When she saw his gesture, she felt a little courageous and shook the older man's hand. Holding the soft and tiny hand, Nr Taylor couldn't help but feel emotional. “I'm Vance. What's your name?” Mr Taylor asked the little girl. “I'm Charlotte,” Coco whispered. Mr Taylor scrunched up his nose. It was a typical Hart family name. He didn't show his feelings about the matter though. He tried to talk more with her but it didn't seem she was interested in answering him more.

    She heard Mrs Taylor say, “This is my baby. I don't let anyone touch it.``She added, “Although I never get to drive it. I kept it in pristine condition. I haven't changed it a bit since the time I got it almost two decades ago.” Roseanne's palm didn't stop caressing the car's exterior until her skin touched the familiar scratches. “It's beautiful,” Roseanne whispered. “Where did you buy it from?”Mrs Taylor said, “No clue. My husband gifted me this on our wedding anniversary that year.”“It is one of a kind,” Roseanne whispered. “There is no piece like this in the world. And my dad happened to modify it with his hands.”Mrs Taylor stared at Roseanne. Roseanne looked into her eyes and asked, “Mrs Taylor, why do you own the only car my father spent decades modifying? It was his beloved project. He loved it like his child. I still remember when he finished his dream project and gave me the first ride in the car. However, after some days, a capitalist forced him to sell it. So, it was

    As Nicholas consoled Roseanne, a sudden message interrupted their moment, causing his expression to shift from comfort to conflict. Sensing his inner unrest, Roseanne asked with concern, “What’s going on?”“I need to leave,” Nicholas revealed, his voice laden with urgency.“Is everything okay?” Roseanne inquired, her worry visible. “I’m not sure,” Nicholas confessed. “I’ve been searching for someone, and now, I’ve received a message saying I need to meet them immediately for crucial information. It’s not far from here. I’ll be back as soon as I can.”Roseanne nodded, though anxiety crept into her features. “Please, be careful.”Nicholas offered her a reassuring smile, appreciating her concern. He embraced her tightly and planted a gentle kiss on her forehead. “I’ll return before you know it,” he promised before reluctantly leaving Roseanne behind with children. Roseanne watched him leave, a knot of worry tightening in her stomach, fearful of the dangers that awaited him and the lurk

    “He is messing up with you again, isn't he?” Sabrina laughed. “I could see from your helplessness that he had you where he wanted you to be. Under his thumb!”She burst into a fit of angry and manic laughter once again. Her laugh made him feel inferior. It made him think that he was never good enough. He had to constantly live under the shadow of Nathaniel because no matter what happens, the latter was the protagonist of the story while he was just a suffering side character. Even if something were not about Nathaniel, it would end up becoming. All the incidents that hit his self-esteem came to surface one by one. The anger that he was trying to surprise cracked and began to overpower him. With angry and dark eyes, he said, “Cut the bullshit, Sabrina.”Sabrina still didn't stop and went on to probe hik further. She knew that under no condition he would hurt her. She pointed out, “You hate him. Don't you? He outsmarts you all the time.”“What the hell do you want?!” Nicholas asked he

That morning, the baby girl’s condition had been critical, but now, as she looked into those tiny, bright eyes, she felt a wave of relief.“Hey there, sweetheart,” Abella cooed, smiling warmly. “You’re such a fighter. You fought so hard to be here with your mom and dad.”The baby stared up at her, and Abella’s heart melted.“Yes, you’re such a strong, big girl,” she whispered, gently touching the baby’s hand.Outside the NICU, the parents expressed their gratitude; their tearful smiles reminded Abella why she had chosen this path.

    Meanwhile, Kate and Rhys were sitting with Anne.“Why is Aunt suddenly changing colors?” Rhys asked.“Because she knows she was wrong and wants back what she lost,” Kate said matter-of-factly.Anne chuckled. “Kate, as much as I love your straightforward attitude, I’d appreciate it if you toned it down in front of Emery. She is… well, very touchy and fussy.”Kate shrugged. “MIL, I have a complaint. Coco and Sia had a girls’ day without me! Can you imagine? I’m trying to be as cool as them, but they left me out!”Rhys suppressed a chuckle. “Yes, Mom, they left my dear Kate out.”Anne played along. “That’s terrible, I’ll scold them,”“Yes, scold them well,” Kate agreed, then added mischievously, “but don’t tell them I snitched. Just say it was Rhys.”Anne smiled. “Alright, dear.” Then, she glanced at Kate. “I saw you have been spending time with Abella. How’s that going? I know you two weren’t close.”Kate sighed. “Everyone coddles her too much. She is living in disillusionment. Coco and

    “Did you match into your preferred branch of residency?” Madam Facci asked, excitement filling her voice.Abella swallowed. “Ma, I’m still checking the results,” she admitted. “I’m scared.”“You have nothing to be scared of, my dear. Just look,” she heard. With a deep breath, Abella entered her credentials for the residency match. Her eyes darted across the screen as the words appeared before her.“I…” Her voice caught in her throat.“What is it?” Madam Facci asked eagerly.“Pediatrics…” Abella whispered in disbelief.A joyful gasp came from the other end. “Oh my god! I am so happy for you, dear!”Abella’s chest tightened as she read the rest. “With NYU…” she murmured. “If I accept it, I will have to stay in New York.”Was she ready for this?Madam Facci’s voice was warm and reassuring. “Whatever you choose, we are proud of you.

    Augustus Hart was born a healthy, chubby baby with a bald head, looking absolutely perfect in every way. His arrival was so sudden that only Callum and Estelle were present at the hospital when her water broke. They barely had time to inform anyone, but Abella rushed over as soon as she found out.The moment Callum stepped out of the delivery room and saw his sister waiting outside, a wave of emotions hit him all at once. Without hesitation, he pulled her into a tight hug.“Congratulations, brother. I’m so proud of you,” Abella whispered, pressing a kiss to his cheek.Callum let out a shaky breath, still overwhelmed. “When did you get here?”“Just now,” she said with a smile. “How’s Estelle?”“Tired,” he admitted, rubbing the back of his neck. “Still cursing me.”Abella chuckled. “And the baby?”“Just perfect,” Callum said, his eyes softening. “Come inside. She is going to be so happy to see you.”When Estelle saw Abella, she let out a small gasp before pulling her into a long, tight

    After her divorce, Abella didn’t leave the country. Cillian had given her a staggering sum in alimony, even going as far as naming half of his assets to her, but she refused to take a single dime. She had her own inheritance. More money than she could ever need. But what could wealth do? It couldn’t buy her happiness. It couldn’t fill the void in her heart.Cillian knew her too well; he didn’t push her to accept anything. He let her go, even when it shattered him.When her mother lived in Italy with Coco and Leon, alongside her uncle Nate, she had bought a beautiful bungalow. It had never been sold, left untouched over the years. When Abella married Cillian, Leon had given her the key to that house as a quiet token of their family’s past. There were two bungalows beside each other, one where her mother had raised her two older siblings, and the other where her father had stayed, the place where her parents had met and reunited. One had been passed down to Charlotte, the other to Leon.

    Cillian stared at her, his throat tightening as he heard the finality in her voice. He had imagined this conversation a thousand different ways, but none of them had prepared him for the calm and almost serene acceptance in her eyes.“Abella…” He whispered her name like a prayer, like a plea. “Can we please rethink this?”Abella smiled. It was a soft, bittersweet smile that made his chest ache.“Cillian, there is nothing to rethink,” she said gently. “Alessandro came to see me. He told me that he was leaving the country with his mother. He said he doesn’t want to come between us, that he would be happy if you called him once in a while and only if it was okay with me.” She let out a humorless chuckle. “That’s too big of a burden for me to carry. I mean, I don’t care how you navigate your relationship with your son. But I will give you one piece of advice: don’t be a jerk. Don’t hurt one more person. You have already hurt me, you have hurt him, and you have hurt his mother. Stop making

    Cillian reached for her hand, his grip firm but trembling as well. “Abella, please listen to me. I’m sorry. I made a mistake by not telling you the truth. Can you please forgive me?” His voice cracked with desperation.She looked at him, her expression unreadable. “I don’t know,” she said softly.Cillian’s breath hitched, and he tried again. “Please, I’ll change. I’ll work on myself. Just give me a chance.” His hands clenched at his sides as if willing himself not to break apart. “I don’t want to see you like this, so shattered. You mean so fucking much to me. Please.”But to Abella, his words felt like echoes in an empty room. They were hollow and weightless. Once upon a time, she had longed to hear them, had dreamed of a moment where he would look at her like this, beg for her, choose her. But now? Now, they felt unimportant. They meant nothing.She exhaled, rubbing her temple. “I heard you. But my head is splitting apart, Cillian. Can you please just go back to your house? I just w

    Madam Facci looked at her son, her expression undecipherable. She had seen Cillian walk through storms without flinching, but today, he stood before her looking utterly wrecked. His usually sharp eyes were bloodshot, his arm wound had reopened, staining his sleeve with fresh blood, yet none of that seemed to matter to him or anyone at this point.“What do you want, Cillian?” she asked, her voice firm but not unkind.“I’m here to see Abella,” he said. His voice was hoarse, almost desperate.Madam Facci crossed her arms. “I’m sure you have no idea what happened last night.”“I know,” he admitted, running a hand through his already disheveled hair. “I just want to explain things to her. She is overthinking this, and there is nothing much to overthink. I just—” He exhaled sharply. “I just want to make everything okay.”A wry smile tugged at Madam Facci’s lips, but there was no amusement in her eyes. “Son,” she said, “we can never tell someone what is worth overthinking or not.
