Darcy was feeling bad now, she never expected that she would blurt out everything in front of her father.

“I don't know dad, I somehow can't say anything good about him because I feel that everything we have is being taken away by him. I know it's wrong because in a way he's helping us but I feel so helpless that I can't do anything.” Darcy spoke very softly.

Oliver looked at her daughter helplessly and said. Darcy my darling you need to stop reading the news about him on the internet. Sometimes what we see things is not like that and can't you see the reality, he is not taking something away from you, you are giving it to him willingly because you need his help. Stop blaming him and accept the fact that he is bringing financial help to the economy of Michigan. You should be happy that all our employees will be employed by him and they wouldn't have to go out of the city to hunt for jobs.”

Darcy looked at him with sadness and said. “Dad I know, just give me some time. I think I will

    With the blink of an eye, the weekend arrived, and on Sunday, early in the morning after Darcy finished her yoga she came and joined her dad who was sitting on the lawn and enjoying his morning tea.“Good morning Dad,” She said lovingly. “Good morning darling I hope you slept well today you look quite refreshed.” Oliver complimented her. “Yes I did after a long time and you won't believe I finished ten drafts overnight I hope they like my design I will be sending it officially today to mark my entry into the competition.” Oliver Fletcher smiled and said.

    “But I can always call up Mother and tell her not to prepare so chill,” Gale suggested. "ha ha ha ha ha.." Oliver Fletcher started laughing looking at the conversation between the father and son. “Your son is a fine young man," he said praising him genuinely. “Don't flatter him too much he is the worst one around, very bossy.” Norman Harris commented. “Dad,” Gale said helplessly. "But what I said is true Normie, he saved me from the financial difficulties that I was in and whatever I say or do to thank him will never compensate for his contribution, he also brought a lot many jobs for the people here. You should be proud of him." Oliver Fletcher said with gratitude. “Yes, I am proud of him Oli but he can be a pain in the ass sometimes, and hey let us talk about us now. enough about him." Norman Harris said unhappily. Gail looked at his father helplessly. “ Uncle Oli, that's alright, please don't be so formal as we are family, and anyways I had my selfish motives as well when I

    It was some considerable time before she could bring herself to return outside to join her father and Uncle Normie and as she walked she noticed that Gail had already left.“Ah, there you are my child.” Norman Harris said as soon as Darcy approached them. "Gale got a call from his office and left in a hurry." He informed her answering the question she was about to ask. “Honey, are you alright? Gale said your stomach is upset.” Oliver Fletcher asked with concern.Darcy noticed that all kinds of delicacies were laid on the table and for a change his dad was enjoying his breakfast without any fuss and it was all thanks to his friend Norman Harris.Darcy’s stomach was rumbling with hunger but she ignored it and cursed Gale for lying for her. She smiled and said. “It’s good Dad it’s just the usual gastric problem.” “You should eat on time young lady or you will fall sick. Come on now eat something light and fill in your stomach.” Norman Harris said politely. “It’s a pity that you won’t

    Darcy was spending her days restlessly as she had to juggle in between the office and home. There was plenty to work on with her designs so she kept herself busy. The day she went and accepted his offer two weeks ago, she had made it clear to him that she would work half a day as she needed to be home to take care of her father. Although Gale had not said anything and accepted her decision, Darcy couldn’t help but notice that he was very amused with her decision but she was in no mood to argue with him so she had left and made sure to distance herself from him as much as she could and thankfully it worked as Gale would fly to and fro looking after his company in Ireland as well as in Michigan. So Darcy had to report to his assistant John Davis and she since liked him a lot more than Gale Harris, she felt comfortable working with him.She had returned home after the meeting and was about to start her work when the housekeeper came and informed her that Shelly Baker and Melvin Baker had

    Shelly got up all of a sudden and looked at Darcy. “Darcy’s I have to head back home, I have to give the instructions to the cook for the evening meal. You and Melvin can continue chatting. I will walk back as it's still bright outside.” Shelly winked at her brother and was about to leave but she remembered something and so she turned and said. “Darcy, as you know it’s my birthday this Saturday, I am throwing a party at the Clintons, and you are invited.” And Darcy could feel by her tone that she was commanding her but she merely nodded her head as she watched her walk out of the house. Then she fixed her gaze on Melvin, who was smiling at her with amusement. ”You know if you are not comfortable, you could always decline her invitation. No one is forcing you.” But deep down inside he was hoping she would come. “Who said I don’t want to come, it’s just that I need to check my schedule.” Darcy refuted back. “Alright, alright, I am happy that you are coming,” Melvin said happily. “

    Darcy was very reluctant to go to Shelly’s birthday as she knew that it meant she would have to drink with them and she was very bad at drinking and on top of that Gail Harris will also be coming with his family as Shelly had invited them. And since its been a long time she had gone out she decided to go and have fun. She wore the beautiful dark figure-hugging dress which had a low cut on the back and it made her look sophisticated. She had bought the dress on one of her trips to Paris the year he had won the completion but never got the chance to wear it. She paired her dress with high heels and left her hair lose as she had natural straight hair. She drove her car to the Clintons’. Although Clinton’s was a reputed club it only entertained elite class people. Darcy had been there a few times with Melvin and her brother Louis and when they were financially stable but it’s been a long time since she had been there. As soon as she parked her car and went to the entrance she saw M

    Darcy gulped the wine down her throat and could feel a hot tingling sensation and wondered whether her alcohol tolerance was getting worse day by day as she could feel slight dizziness overcoming her. On the other hand, Melvin looked at her with satisfaction and said. “ Darcy if you will excuse me I need to go to the washroom. I hope you will be fine here by yourself, I won’t be long.” Darcy looked at him with hazy eyes and nodded her head. “I am fine, don’t worry about me I can take care of myself.”She didn’t notice the smirk on his face when he walked away from her. Darcy was feeling slightly dizzy and was least bothered to look at him and once Melvin was gone her eyes wandered around the dance floor and her eyes caught sight of Rachael Harris dancing with Xavier York the famous business tycoon who was known around as a lady's man and who had eyes only for the pretty girls and was as wild as boar and Darcy wondered whether Gale Harris was aware of it or she was sure he wouldn’t

    As Darcy got out of the lift she dragged her dizzy body towards the room which was mentioned by Melvin. All she wanted to was to go inside that damn room and throw up. And while she was walking down the long corridor she could hazily see a few men leaning on the wall and looking at her. She felt very creepy and a little uncomfortable as well but she kept on walking and looked for the designated door. And when she finally reached the door she inserted the key and was about to get in when ……….. Behind her, she could feel someone staring at her and when she looked back she saw herself surrounded by men. She panicked and quickly opened the door to get inside it but what happened next was shocking for her as the men standing behind her pushed her inside.She stumbled and fell forward. “Hey! What the hell do you think you are doing?” She shouted angrily and stared at those men but she was utterly shocked to look at the lustful expressions on their faces and her heart skipped a beat.

    "You once said.......,” she repeated determinedly, “that I would never admit love till it became the dominant emotion in my life, outgrowing everything else. She raised misty eyes to his and the shining quality behind her tears could be mistaken. “It’s like that now, Gale,” she said. “I love you. If you want to go back to Ireland or Paris wherever you go take me with you!”" “We can go to Ireland, Cannes, Paris or any part of the world but on our honeymoon,” he told her. She pressed her face hard against the roughness of his coat, ashamed of those days when her love had not been as sure as his. After all, Darcy lived in a happy dream where her family and her family business were still precious but not the centre of her universe. There had always been other interests in her life, of course, and her family might have been something of an obsession, but now she saw herself lucky enough to possess so many things the greatest of which was love. Gale wrapped his arms around her and captu

    “Well the party was in full swing and I happened to take pictures of the beautiful gowns worn by the celebrities and models to show to my designers so that they could get some inspiration but all of a sudden an angry female who was wearing the most beautiful mask was looking at me angrily as I was about to click her picture and for a moment I was distracted by her beautiful sparkling eyes and forgot to take her picture. “You, what do you think you are doing?” She spoke angrily and she pointed her fingers at me. Darcy who was listening to his narrative was somehow shaken to the core and she tried to think about the time three years back when she had participated in the backstage party wearing her winning mask and said the same thing to the masked guy who was looking at her intently. She looked at Gale in confusion but Gale chose to ignore her and continued. “I was too busy looking at her and was amused at her outburst, she was so feisty and even with the mask she looked like a diva.

    Rachael came to the office in search of Louis that afternoon and Darcy thought that she looked unhappy, in spite of the fact that her romance with Louis was spreading like wildfire all around Michigan. She was running after Louis like a woman head over heels for him and Louis being an extrovert was trying hard to give his best to the only women who would scold and love him at the same time but the most important part was she never judged him for what he had done in the past and accepted him with his flaws making it utterly impossible for Louis to resist her and fall madly in love with her. Darcy,” she exclaimed, “why are people so difficult? Especially the people one loves most!” “Because you can’t let go of loving them, I suppose. Other people don’t count so much. Can I help you with anything Rachael?” She thought that the trouble with her little brother was over ages ago and she had already decided that Rachael could manage Louis better than her and she had shown by her actions i

    Darcy did not know what to think. “Louis,” she begged, “don’t say anything about this just now. It might only worry Mrs Harris needlessly. Let's leave it till Gale can deal with it himself." “Which I don’t think will be very long,” Louis said as the old guard came down the stairs. “He’s had a miraculous escape, hope he recovers fast.” Gale”s recovery took longer than they expected. It was two weeks before he was up and about again and a full month before he went back to the mill. In these days Louis became his constant companion, carrying his orders to the company and generally supervising the working of the factory during his absence. In the circumstances. Louis thought Darcy should stay at the office to help. It was a strange thing, but Louis never mentioned the break-in at the office again. The lock was repaired on the assumption that the CEO had forced the door, and that was that, but Darcy felt that there had been a note of satisfaction in her brother’s voice when he had info

    “Dr James?” she asked when she finally got through. “Can you come to our company at once?” She was amazed at the calmness of her voice while her heart thumped so hard in the stillness. “There’s been an accident. It’s Mr Harris. He seems to have fallen down the stairs and can’t move his leg.” Her voice trailed off and no further words of explanation would come. She heard the doctor’s answer as if it came from some immeasurable distance, but she knew that he had assured her that he would be there as soon as he could with the ambulance. She did not think that Gale was going to die, nor did she tell herself that he might be seriously injured, crippled perhaps for life. She felt numbed, but conscious, too, of having achieved something, a kind of victory which love could accept. If it was even the victory over her old bitterness, she believed that it would be enough. When the doctor arrived she was waiting beside the curiously wrapped figure on the ground, and the doctor and his help gave

    “The debt is high,” Victor growled. “You never be able to pay such a huge amount of debt after what your sister has done. If only you two had done more for the company, things might have been a lot different.” The remark was hardly justified and Melvin knew it. Victor had never really considered them and his generosity with money had been largely to satisfy his ego. A show of affluence had always pleased him and it raised his prestige in Michigan. He had been quite never satisfied with his Money and he firmly believed, money was the only power, and it had been a great shock to him to find himself virtually without it. Melvin knew all these things about his father and he also knew that Victor had realised that signing the contract to sell his company had been foolish of him. Melvin had tried to retrieve it by directly approaching Gale without any success, so there was only one other way for it. He knew enough about the factory and had laid his plans carefully, and when he walked down

    “All of you wait and watch I will sue you for harassing me without any proof.” She shouted angrily. “Oh …so pointing a gun at us wearing a mask and trying to kill us is not a crime? Right, that's what you think.” Rachel spoke confidently pointing her fingers at Shelly. “Shut up you little bitch, I was just playing around trying to make you scared. I wasn’t planning to kill you at all. Why are you assuming things? Gale your sister has gone mad.” Shelly tried to defend herself shamelessly by mocking Rachel. But Rachel wasn’t listening as she had seen the truth right in front of her, she was so angered by Shelley’s declaration that she came forward and gave her a tight slap. Gale knew her sister was short-tempered so he came forward and pulled Rachel back towards him.“It’s OK Rachel calm down.
