Thank you for reading. Loving three chapters? Please send me those lovely gems. I will be busy until Monday. I'm taking my baby for his regular vaccine, etc. So, the next update will be on Monday evening, Singapore Time.
Earlier that day, Shantelle was lazily preparing for school. She wasn't feeling well, but school was school. Every day is vital for medical school. After showering and changing into a pair of faded jeans and a white top, she made her way to the dining area to have breakfast. "Surprise! Happy bir
Keith laughed. He shook his head and replied, "I'm not interested in them, and... they are not at all wrong." Shantelle simply shook her head at his remark, not wanting to dwell on it. Keith was handsome and charismatic, but he was also Evan's friend. She did not want to go there with him. Moreover
"Oh, my goodness! Not again!" Mrs. Shaw exclaimed, seeing Evan being guided by Wendell into the villa's entrance at four in the morning. She tried to aid Wendell, but Wendell said, "It's okay, Mrs. Shaw, I can manage. Please help me open the door to his room." More than a week had passed since Ev
[Sometimes, when things don't work out the way you planned, something better is coming. It may be difficult to believe where you stand; often, redirection is a helpful intervention. This is a gift, and I know it. Love and kisses to my girl, Shanty! I'll see you in a week.] Shantelle smiled, reading
"Evan, son. Do we really need to go?" Erick Thompson asked. The Thompsons were in the car, heading their way to the airport. They were flying to Lockwood for the formalities of Evan's recently acquired property. "Of course we do, Erick. Evan wants us to see his plans," Clara said in the car. "
"Mister Thompson, this is for you," a young bald girl walked up to Erick, Evan's father, and gave him a teddy bear. Another young boy, wearing a cannula, breathed deeply as he handed a single flower to Clara Thompson. He said, "For you." "This is Anna. She has leukemia. She is waiting for a bone
He pointed to Wendell, Sean, and Keith, saying, "My friends will be my first business partners in this new venture." "And the hospital?" Clara asked. "I will buy the hospital too. The owner already intended to sell the hospital to the other bidders. If I did not win the bid, this hospital would
Evan, his friends, and his family stayed in Lockwood for two days, finalizing documents. It was on the last day that Evan asked Keith for a favor. In the lobby of the same hotel they were staying, "Evan invited Keith for coffee." As they were drinking their beverages in front of a round table, Ev
"Fuck. Lucas is back?" Lewis indignantly turned to Lily and asked, "Do you know about this?" "Is Lucas really back, Lily?" Lily's mother also asked in shock. All her brothers, except for Liam, asked the same thing. Lily helplessly looked at Liam, and seeing her brother wasn't going to spill eithe
"The aortic stent graft collapse," Doctor Steven reported to the Wright family. "That caused him to faint. So, earlier, we inserted another stent, and he is under observation." "I feel that there is a but coming," Lily's oldest brother, Liam, predicted. Behind him, all of Lily's brothers were givin
"Mommy, are you okay? You have been staring into spaces lately," Aiden asked. Lily was helping her son with his homework. While Aiden wrote his answers in the book, Lily was in a daze. "Sorry, Buddy. Was thinking of something," Lily said. "Are you done?" "Almost. I'm so glad your mission got canc
Liam had introduced Jake to Lily as one of their new contractors. Often, Jake traveled to other cities to make proposals, hoping to get another project for the company. That was why he was in Lockwood. "Lily, my job here will be extended for another week," Jake revealed. "But I'll see you after th
"You know what, Lucas? You are insane!" Lily yelled, pulling her arm away from him. She did it so forcefully that the necklace around Lucas' neck bounced to reveal that golden tag with her name carved on it. Instantly, Lily stilled. Her heart skipped a beat while her eyes were glued to the pendant
"He is an important person who needs protection. It will be your primary responsibility to oversee his security," the major loudly said to Lily while they were on a military helicopter, flying ten thousand feet above the ground. This was one of those odd assignments. When Lily arrived at the mil
"Somebody has guilt written all over their face," Lily softly commented, seeing her oldest brother, Liam Wright, in the dining area of their home early that morning. If anyone knew about the arrival of one Lucas Thompson, her brother would be it. After all, Liam previously managed the joint business
“Lily? My favorite daughter in the world is back!” Lily’s mother, Scarlett, exclaimed. Lily could not help but roll her eyes at her mother’s remark. She responded, “Mom, you can’t have a favorite daughter. I am your only daughter!” Scarlett laughed. Lily’s father, Kaleb, who was sipping tea in th
Of course, what did she expect? He left her without saying anything. So now, he was practically denying their past relationship by pretending not to know her! The truth was, it stung a little. When he disappeared, Lily cried an ocean for him, yet this was how he treated her now? Then again, Lily s
