As soon as he was done with his speech, he outstretched his hands towards the board."This is a summary of everything I have in mind. Preparations are being made as I speak to you and soon we'll sign a deal with the corporation.The members in the room all rose up on their feet and began clapping while Bryan stared at them. He finally walked to his spot and took his seat."A job well done Mr Anderson. I think you're doing even better on this job."Bryan replied, "Thank you Mr Alfred." As soon as the members were handed the leaflets, they all rose up on their feet, indicating the meeting was over and began walking out one by one.Bryan was the only one seated until the room was empty. He picked up his phone as soon as he heard the buzzing sound."I'll be waiting for you at our favorite coffee shop. Please come see me Bryan." He read the message from Stella and immediately deleted it. He tucked his phone back into his pocket and drank from the bottle of water in front of him.Bryan An
2 Days Later…"Kids, stay close." Taylor said. They had just landed at the airport, and she was back to New York. Four fucking years, yet nothing changed so much.What hurt her the most was the fact that she had kept the birth of her children a secret from her father, and because of her stupid decision, he never set his eyes on his grandkids before he died.There was a car waiting for their arrival.As soon as Taylor got in with her kids, she met Talia at the back seat. The person seated at the front was unknown. Talia was in a black outfit.The kids also got in, but Talia gave a shocking look when she saw three children who looked exactly like Bryan."Tell me it's not true, Talia. Please.""I'm so sorry Taylor. I couldn't protect him, and I wasn't there when it happened… I'm so…"Taylor pulled Talia into a hug whimpering lowly because she didn't want her kids to know, but they were smart."Momma, what's wrong?" That was Kylie leaning closer to her mom and cleaning the tears on her fa
The kids were all ready, and they came downstairs. "Kids, be good and don't roam around okay." Taylor informed them and they all nodded their heads. She picked up her daughter in her arms and kissed her forehead. Then, she squatted and kissed her boys too."Let's go." Talia was already in the car waiting for the arrival. As soon as the kids got in, Talia took Kylie from Taylor and made her sit on her legs."Good morning auntie." The kids greeted one after the other and she smiled. Taylor had to just give birth to lovable characters. The kids seem to love her and always want her around."Morning angels."Kyle and Kristen sat beside her and the car began moving immediately. "I'll lay my father to rest tomorrow." Taylor said, and Talia nodded her head touching her shoulders."You should also meet with some of the company's board members. They sent their condolences.""After the burial, I will."Taylor held Talia's hand. "I need you to come work with me at the company. I can't do this a
Alex ran as fast as he could into the bar the moment he stepped down from his car. His heart was beating so hard and fast, but he didn't stop running because he was worried.As soon as he got in, he met her seated on the seat close to the counter. He walked closer and found out she wasn't drunk but instead, her eyes were swollen."Stella." He called her name and she cocked her head towards his direction. Once Stella saw him, she rose up on her feet, walked towards him and hugged him tight even to his surprise. He could only stand and wait for her to say something.She had called him earlier and was crying on the phone. She needed someone to talk to, so he was here for her. Alex was going to pretend he had no idea why she was this way, but he knew why.She finally took her hands away from his waste. "I'm sorry." She said sniffling. "It's fine. Are you alright?"She nodded her head at first, but the next second, she shook her head in negation, and said. "No, no, I'm not okay, Alex. I j
"T.. Taylor, please." Bryan tried to say but Taylor wasn't going to give him a listening ear. She didn't want to see his face so she hurried into the car as soon as her kids got in.She was scared of the fact that Bryan might want to take her babies away since she thought of him as heartless."Take us back home." Taylor demanded the chauffeur who ignited the car and drove away." As the car turned around, her eyes met with that of Bryan. For years, Taylor had not seen those eyes, and seeing them again made her recall old memories that she didn't want to recollect. He was happy now, and she deserved to be happy as well.She winded up the glass and stopped looking at him.As the car continued moving, Taylor couldn't hold back her tears. Why the hell did she have to meet Bryan. The pains of the past that she wanted to leave behind for the rest of her life suddenly came back.She felt hurt especially when she saw the pictures of Bryan and Stella sleeping together. It was better she never
Taylor and Talia waited outside receiving the guests who had come for her father's burial to pay their last respect. Most of them especially the ladies would stop and pat her shoulders gently.Taylor was certain of one thing, her father was a good man and he had built a great foundation and legacy. She was going to continue from there with Talia who was now like a sister to her."I'm so sorry Taylor, please take heart. No pressure, you can return back when you're fully alright."Taylor lowered her head in appreciation. "Thank you so much Mrs Watson. Do say Hi your husband and lovely kids on my behalf."The lady chuckled. "Oh, I will. Thank you." She walked away."Do you really trust that lady? She certainly had eyes on your dad when your mom was still alive. She literally wanted to become your step mom after she died."Taylor shrugged."So eweeeeeee. I trust my dad, he would never have done such a thing."Thus made Talia chuckle. "I left my babies at home with a nanny. I miss them so
Alex was certain that Bryan wasn't going to come. Because of Stella, he didn't go to pay his last respect to Taylor's father even though she was his friend.Stella was still in the hospital expecting Bryan to come, but when evening came and he still wasn't here, she fell asleep while crying.Alex couldn't watch it. It hurt him everytime she did something like that, so he left the room for her. After staying outside and getting worried, he decided to go in to check up on her only for him to meet her asleep with dried tears on her face.He touched her face and slept beside her while holding her hands. He was always the one there for her, but she always fails to realize it.A few hours later, Stella woke up first to see Alexander right beside her. In her dream, she had felt someone touch her face and it reminded her of the times Bryan always touched her face. She also felt him clean her tears and hold her hands. She didn't want to open up her eyes for fear of it ending.Stella wanted to
After cleaning the tears on her face, Taylor turned around to face her children.She held Kylie's hands. "Baby, mommy's heard your wish, and she'll do everything to make it come true okay." She said, and hugged her daughter.Talia came down the stairs. The kids all greeted her and she pecked them one after the other. "We're late Taylor.""Nanny, we're leaving now, take care of the kids okay." Taylor said and waved her kids goodbye as she walked out of the house. When they got to the car, she buried her head on the wheels. "Are you alright?" Talia questioned, but Talia shook her head in negation."I'm not okay. Do you think I'm depriving my kids of the right to see their dad?""Taylor, you're doing what is best for them, and for yourself. We'll talk about this after the meeting, okay?"Taylor ignited the engine and immediately drove the car out of the house. A few minutes later, they were finally at the company. The next few months of her life would be so busy and hectic with work bec

"I wanna show you something, Taylor," Talia said as they broke the hug and wiped their tears,"What?""Come inside, baby." Talia half yelled, and from the entrance, Nathan stepped into the room holding a precious little baby in his arms. It seemed he couldn't stop her from crying softly."Oh, oh my goodness. Nathan?" Talia called. She waited and when he was standing next to them, Talia took the baby from his hand."Hey Taylor… it's been a while." Nathan uttered, but instead, Taylor embraced him so tight. "Yeah, it has. I can't believe I'm seeing you right now."A year back, Alexander had told her the truth. It wasn't Nathan who hurt her family, but his father and he was dead. After everything Mercidi did to her father, Taylor couldn't bring herself to hate Nathan because he had no idea about what his father did after all."You have a baby?""She's ours," Talia responded, and Taylor smiled."Can I?" "Do you even have to ask? Here, take her. She's always wanted to meet her aunt." Gent
ONE YEAR LATER."Kylie baby, come on, you're going to be late okay?" Taylor yelled as her daughter was taking so long to come down.Kyle and Kristen were standing close to her. "Mom, we're going to be late for our birthday party," Kristen said "Just give your sister 5 more minutes okay? She'll be down." Taylor said."Mommy." Kylie yelled as she rushed down the stairs with the nanny behind her. As soon as she got to where Taylor was, she hugged her so tight."You look gorgeous my darling," Taylor said and hugged Kylie. Her daughter was in a lovely pink dress and a crown on her forehead which made her look just a princess. "Now come on, we're going to be late okay." Kylie nodded her head. Just as she turned around, she halted and turned back again,"I love you so much, Daddy," Kylie uttered, blowing a little kiss towards the portrait of Bryan on the wall. Taylor turned around to stare at her daughter and smiled widely."Come on baby." She said again, and Kylie took her hand once again
Noticing that there was no other way to escape, Leo ran into a building before his enemies could get to him. It was an old building and the only building around the area, and thankfully, there weren't many people in it.Noticing that there were only a few of his men left, Asher was determined to kill Leo no matter what. As soon as he came towards the building, he smiled and tucked his gun into his pocket,"Gotcha." He uttered and began to step in.Meanwhile, Sebastian, Nathan, and Thiago got to the building five minutes later. "Damn it, how are we going to go in there?" Sebastian questioned,"We'll just go in," Nathan responded and cocked his head towards Thiago who nodded."What do you mean? There are people everywhere and we might hurt them.""Not just ordinary people, Sebastian. Thiago and I planned everything so that building is mine, and those people are ours. They work for us.Sebastian chuckled, "Why do I even bother underestimating the things you can do, Levi? You're damn smar
Sebastian couldn't stall anymore because if he did, then Rose's life would be in danger just like Leo had threatened. His greatest fear was losing the woman he was meant to protect.Although he had been able to protect Sharon, Rose was more important and he couldn't let anyone hurt her."I need to see the boss." Sebastian was standing at the entrance of the two big doors leading inside the mansion. When he uttered this, the door was opened by two bodyguards and he was allowed to step in.As he got in, the first person his gaze found was Micheal standing behind Leo. Sebastian waited for about 10 minutes before Leo called his attention as he had been discussing with a few friends,"Please sit. We shouldn't treat our guests with disrespect." Leo uttered and smiled knowing that today was the last day. It was either Sebastian had news about the warehouse or he had agreed for Rose to be killed."So, where is it?" Leo questioned.Sebastian took his gaze away from Micheal's and averted it to
As soon as Sasha heard the voice behind her, she turned around immediately pointing her gun towards the three officers who were in front of her with their guns pointed towards her."Ms. Sasha Davis, you're under arrest for murder, illegal sales of drugs, and robbery." Sasha chuckled aloud. Of course, everything was making her damn insane. They found out everything she was hiding. The man whom she had hired had his gun pointed right in front of the officers while Sasha carefully turned sideways,"Move." She yelled at Bryan, but he didn't move away from Taylor."Move or I blow one of their brains," Sasha yelled again staring at the kids, and this time, it was Taylor who moved away from Bryan."Good girl. Come closer."Taylor rose to her feet and walked towards Sasha like she had instructed, "Please, just don't hurt my kids, please.""You can't shoot, you're gonna hurt any of them if you do," Alexander uttered to one of the officers standing beside him as he stared at Bryan."If any of
NEXT NIGHT:Natalia had decided not to step out of her room since she knew Nathan was preparing to leave. If she stepped out, then she would certainly tag along with him so it was best to stay back without saying goodbye or good luck. It was so fucking hard to think that he would be out there alone and she wouldn't be by his day.She had always dreamt that if this day would arrive, she would be beside him and fight, but too bad an unexpected baby had changed everything. Although Talia couldn't deny that she was angry, she couldn't blame the child growing inside of her. If more than anything, she ought to be happy and pray for Nathan's safe returnA knock was rasped on the door,"Come in," Talia uttered, averting her gaze to the door. When the door opened, she heaved in disappointment. "So sorry if I wasn't who you were desperately expecting, sweetheart," Maya said as she walked in and Talia immediately changed her countenance."I'm sorry.""It's fine, darling. How are you feeling? I w
"Everything's ready, and we're leaving tonight. I still fucking hope Sebastian's alright cause if he isn't, then I'm never going to forgive myself." Nathan said and took the last content in the glass"He's gonna be fine, Levi, trust me. I would have gotten words if something happened to Sebastian, alright? Now, we've got to think about you first. You need to successfully make your way to the warehouse before anything else.""Yeah, I know, before Leo gets even the slightest hint of what's happening," Nathan responded. He had never been so nervous all his life, but tomorrow night was going to be the hardest fight Nathan ever had since he knew how to handle a gun and pull the trigger. Tomorrow night, he was going to face his brother, and an enemy of his family for so many years. "I need you to do something important for me, Thiago. I need Natalia to be in safe arms, and if I don't make it alive, I want her to be happy. Damn, she's got to live her life, find a good man, and take good car
The very moment Taylor got to her destination, she halted her car and without a warning began to run towards the graveyard. Thinking about her kids in danger was even more scary than she had ever imagined and so when she stepped in, she was knocked out by a man who had gotten to her unexpectedly.A few hours later, Taylor woke up to see her kids all asleep beside her."Kylie, Kyle, Kristen!" She called their names, but there was no response. "What did you do to my kids? What the hell did you do?" Taylor yelled out loud as she stared at the man standing right in front of her with a mask on his face,"They'll be awake soon. If we wanted them dead, then madam would have instructed earlier.""Madam? Who's she? Who kidnapped my kids?" "Shut up woman, else I might really hurt one of them. Madam will be here soon so wait patiently." The man instructed and Taylor immediately became silent. The most important thing right now was that her kids were alive and she was beside them.A few minutes
