The shareholders' eyes gleamed upon hearing the news. If the biggest corporation in the country were to use Prima MedCare, they would all be settled for life! "The Wright Diamond Corporation in Braeton?" Charles asked, bemused. "The new Diamond Hotel here in Rose Hills is a partnership between me
Within the meeting room of Prima MedCare, Evan and Keith were in a serious conversation about the plan to propose to Karise. "What if Karise says no?" Keith asked. "Then, try again. Shanty did not say yes the first time I proposed," Evan admitted. "Besides, why would she say no? Why have that do
"Thank you, Evan. You helped me a lot," Keith suggested. "When I have the date and place, can we have a final practice?" Evan's face turned gloomy, and Keith laughed boisterously. Keith said, "It's okay, Evan. I was just testing how far you would go to help me. I at least appreciate the initial hel
Karise was surprised to find the Milkshake House closed for their gathering. It wasn't necessary. The place was still big enough to accommodate their party, plus the store's walk-in customers. Karise thought it was over the top. However, she also appreciated the privacy. She noticed lavish changes
Beads of sweat formed on Keith's forehead. "Oh, shit!" Evan, Sean, and Wendell stared at him with worry. "Everything okay, Keith?" Evan asked. "Keith?!" Finally, Karise asked, her voice raising. "You are scaring me. What happened?" "Babe, did you feel anything? Something hard as you drank your
Monday came, and the marriage happened. Karise could not believe what she was looking at when she entered the courthouse the following work week. It was a marriage certificate, and Keith had already signed his name on the contract. Karise's name had also been printed into the same document. All sh
"Oh, no!" Shantelle laughed from her seat. She said, "I can't, honey. I can't carry your siblings out there. You, Daddy, Uncle Miguel, and Lily can go." "Sorry, Mommy, I forgot!" Lucas said. It did not take long for them to arrive at the lakehouse. It was a gorgeous red-roofed house that sat in f
"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
