"Axle this is crazy, you can't make a decision like that without telling me."Ember said, looking at Axle who was focused on the road. The meeting had ended and they were now heading back home. Most of the board members kept looking at Ember, but not in a kind way though. They worked very hard to get where they are but for someone to just jump to the top without experiencing all the hardships that one has to face before getting to the top, sounded like a joke to them. Axle didn't care about what they thought, he just cared about what he thought."Ember, I know that this is a crazy thing to do but it's what I want for you. I want you to be happy. I want you to be a part of everything in my life."He said."Axle, being your personal assistant is one thing but making me one of your company's major shareholders is something else. Now you just made me a lot more enemies. I am sure that those people want to bury me alive right now."She said. Axle knew that his decision had made Ember a lot of
Days had passed since Axle and Ember moved out of the mansion. Things have been going well for them, but not everything. Ever since Ember became a part of the company, a lot of people started hating her. They would spread lies about her and even post things about her on social media, but she just ignored them because she figured that that was something that she was never going to stop from happening. If you shut one person up then there will always be another one to talk. So she just ignored it all. She just focused on her life.Today Axle and Ember decided to go to the park just to relax. They have been quite busy so they needed to relax a bit. Ember laid a cloth on the grass so that they could sit. They both sat down, looking at the people that were walking around. It was a Tuesday so it wasn't full because most people were either at work or school. Only a few people were there. Some were taking walks and were just sitting down like them. As they were seated, they saw a pregnant wo
The next morning Ember was woken up by the sound of someone knocking on the door. She opened her eyes and she checked the time on the clock that was on the nightstand. It was only 7:30. She sighed in frustration, she wondered who it was that just came there to ruin her sleep. She rolled over to the other side of the bed. Axle had already left for work, he told her to stay home for the day because he understood that she was exhausted. He had deprived her of her sleep last night. She got off the bed, and she stretched her arms while yawning. She took the robe that was on the couch and she put it on. She walked towards the door and she opened the door and she saw the butler standing there."Good morning madame."He said, bowing his head a little."Morning."She said."Sorry for waking you up but there is someone downstairs who wants to see you, she said that her name is Catherine and that she's your mother."He said. Just exactly the last person that she wanted to see. She nodded her head i
"Sophie, it's great to see you. It's been a while."She said, opening the door for Sophie to enter. Since she was alone for the whole day she decided to invite Sophie over to keep her company and to show her where she now lived. "My my. Look at this place. Ember you sure are a lucky bitch. This place smells like a billion bucks." Sophie said, taking a deep breath. "Wow, this vase is so beautiful. I've never seen one like it before."She said, holding the vase up. It was golden, with flower patterns all over it. The flower patterns had at least one diamond in the middle. It also had Axle's name written on the bottom of the vase."That's because it's not sold anywhere. He got it made especially for him." Ember said. "I still think that it was a waste of money, I mean who spends millions on a vase that can just get knocked down and break?"She asked."Your husband did. I don't blame him. I am sure that he's able to make all the money that he made in less than a year." She said."Come on, l
It was 5pm and Sophie stood up from the chaise lounge. It was already getting late. Since it was winter it was starting to get dark. They had only drank half of the bottle of wine. She took her handbag, she opened it and she put the bottle of wine in. Ember was not surprised. Sophie would take anything if she got the chance. As long as it was something that she could not afford and she got to have a taste of it for free. Ember stood up with wobbly legs. Her alcohol tolerance wasn't very good. The wine was just too strong for her. She got drunk just by drinking two glasses. On the other hand Sophie looked okay, she looked like she was sober."I'll see you some other time."Ember said. Even from the way that she was talking one could tell that she was drunk. She tried to be steady but her knees were weak. "Yeah. Make sure that you get another bottle of expensive wine for me." Sophie said. They both hugged and Sophie made her way out, while Ember tried to reach the living room. As soon a
The next morning Ember woke up, took a shower, and got dressed. She then made her way downstairs into the dining room where she found Axle who was already seated and having breakfast. "Good morning." She said, giving him a peck on the lips and then she sat down next to him."Morning." He replied. "Are you going somewhere today?"He asked. She looked like she was in a bit of a rush."Yeah, I am going to see my dad at the hospital today. I just want to hear what he's going to tell me about the whole situation." She said, serving herself breakfast."Do you need me to come with you?" He asked."No, I'll be fine."She said."Are you sure?"He asked."Yeah, I am sure. There is no need for you to worry about me or anything. If anything happens I'll give you a call."She said, smiling at him."Okay." He said and then they both ate their breakfast quietly. —--------------------After a few hours, Ember got out of the car. She closed the car door and walked towards the hospital building. It has be
I knew that your mother was evil, but this. I don't know, are you sure that she's not the devil's sibling?" Sophie asked. She almost jumped off her seat when Ember told her about what her mother intended on doing to her father. "Yeah, I know. I just have to figure out a way to get my dad out of there before Tuesday." She said."Did you talk to Axle about it?" Sophie asked."No, not yet. I'll tell him when I get home, I hope that I can find a way to save my dad. I don't think that I bear the pain of losing him. He's like the only parent that cares about me." Ember said. She could tears starting to form in her eyes. She just shook her head and she shut her eyes. She didn't want to cry, not now at least. She had to save her dad then she was going to cry later after all of this was over. "OH I almost forgot to mention. I bumped into someone named Royal McIntire at the hospital." She said. As soon as she mentioned his name, she could see Sophie's eyes light up with excitement. "Are you s
Ember parked her car outside Axle's villa. She sat in the car, trying to calm down and collect herself. That letter that she had found on her car got to her and Royal's words, too. Sophie said that Royal was never wrong, so was he not wrong about what he had told her, too? She tried to tell herself that nothing was going to happen in her life now and that Karen was out of it, but she knew deep down that Karen wasn't the kind of person who would back down from a fight that easily and she had to be prepared for anything.She opened the bottle of water that she kept in her car, and she drank the water from it, all of it. She just wanted to try and calm down, but she couldn't. There was just a lot going on in her life right now. First, her mother was planning to kill her father, and she had until Tuesday to stop her and save him, and now this weird letter. It was a bit too much for her.She checked the time on her phone and she saw that it was 5:33 pm. Axle was not back yet. She still had
