Maya after sending out the last dish for lunch hour thanked her cooks gratefully before taking off her apron and heading towards the back kitchen. She rubbed the back of her neck to get rid of the tension she has been feeling since she came back to Aurora.

It has been three weeks since that video was leaked out and the minute she stepped foot back in the public, she had been receiving several glances from those she knew and from strangers. Some had sent her pitying looks while some would give her malicious or mischievous glances.

Thankfully, being with Grayson had thought her well enough to straightened her back and put on a calm facade. Though it took a lot of effort from her, Maya was glad that she was able to pull it through and told herself that when she’ll see him later, she would tell him that.

How are things there?”“Seats are slowly filling up again but I reserved a table for us,” Maya replied patiently. “Just be here by twelve because Spencer’s going to be hungry already. He didn’t finish his breakfast a while ago because he wants to go jet skiing with his dad immediately.”“Will Cunningham be joining us?” He asked tersely.“I-I don’t know,” Maya replied slowly. “But Cass and Margaret are here. So, he might probably join them for lunch since Cass still feels strange around her mom.”“I can’t blam

    Maya walked slowly towards a warehouse that’s been painted dark green the following day. She gripped her hands into fists as she stopped midway, her face showing what she is going through with herself. She inhaled deeply to calm herself. “It’s alright, Maya,” Grayson assured soothingly to the mic that is connected to the concealed earpiece she was given to wear. He watched through the monitor as she took several deep breaths and still didn’t move from her position. “We have two men trailing you closely to get to you as soon as there’s danger but take your time.” Grayson watched as she open and closed her hands, gripping them anxiously. He recalled that those were the same hands that clung intently and desperately on to him late last night up to the early hours in the morning. Hearing a soft knock on his bedroom door and the knob being turned, Grayson opened his eyes and saw the digits on the wall clock at fifteen minutes before midnight. Another knock came and he finally stood up,

She stared intently at Jordan, who has been forced down on his knees while Mary is sneering down at him before tipping his face up with the gun under his chin.“Let go of me!” She hissed at the men holding her, where they only snickered at her as one successfully tied her hands behind her back.

His eyes followed the man for a while before he finally reached for his phone on the table when it notified of a message. He read the message that Mason had sent him before opening the attached file of a certain contract for his hotel. “Jordan!” A warm voice called out. He looked up and a smile appeared on his face when he saw Maya walking towards him with a smile. He stood up from his chair when she is near and bent down, giving her a soft kiss on her cheek when she finally arrived. “Have you waited long?” She asked after he pulled a chair for her and sat down. “Not too long and caught a paparazzi take some shots,” he answered with humor.

Finishing his meeting with his tenants, he immediately went to the hospital.“Hey, I’m here. Didn’t I tell you not to walk too much?” Grayson said softly as well as chiding her, when he entered her room, where she is breathing in and out deeply while she went through another contraction.
