The early morning weather breeze was cool and the sweet chimes of birds chirped all over the hood. The morning cock roar has set its alarms up and going which woke most people up to tend over to their business since the beautiful night has passed.

Alice didn't sleep well, she couldn't sleep with the thoughts of her mom all occupied in her head. She was so shocked at what happened last night, how her mom had tailed her off telling her not to ever call her again "Was she caught talking with me? What has Rita done to her? Is she okay?" These thoughts bothered her so much that she was up all night wandering around her room.

Theo knew Alice wasn't going to sleep that night considering how worried she sounded about Jamie so, he only made her some cupcakes to keep her away from starving before going to bed. Only to wake up and find Alice sitting on the dining table with her hair covering her face and her eyes round with deep dark circles like some of a ghost or zombie.

    Mr. Daniel was becoming worried that his son was only playing with him and the company. "Valentino knew he wasn't going to hold up with the party then why on earth would he accept this? I knew from the first day that all this about him and Alice was all a joke, just pretense. I knew it all along but was not so certain about it and now look what he has caused for me. I need to figure out how to explain this to the board." He was going insane right now. He had a lot of things and thoughts going on in his mind.

My baby" She hurriedly went closer to Valentino's bed and hugged him so tight that he couldn't make a sound."M..om. Am…choki..ng" He struggled the words out of his lips which caused Mr. Daniel to break out into laughter and Alice only smiled while watching the love flowing between them.

He had a little headache which made him wish to stay in bed for a longer while and he did but was no longer sleeping. He recalled back on what had happened last night, the mysterious dinner meeting with his family. He took his phone and checked what the time said and it was eight minutes past eight. He tried standing up but got shaken down to his bed by dizziness, with his eyes rolling like he had entered a rolling wheel.Alice woke up earlier but couldn't hear a sound from Theo's room which shows that he was yet to wake up. She knew it was not likely for her to wake up before Theo so maybe he's got sick from the heartbreaks of last night. She immediately packed her hair up in a

She held a big smile that almost felt fake on her lips, she stared at Valentino for God knows how long and fit what reason. "I think getting to look at a handsome man could help relieve stress." Thinking of these words she was screaming in her head made her laugh out a bit which made Valentino look her way. Alice only waved at him before he could stop staring."So where are we headed?" Alice questioned."To an audition, where mostly all influential men will be in attendance and expected to be all lovey-dovey in their presence.

    Alice no longer knew what to think right now, it never crossed her mind that they could be setting up a marriage for her which was never going to happen with or without her consult. She didn't want to bring her mom back into the picture but since she was the one who had asked her to be here for this dinner date that meant she had lots and lots of explanations to make. Alice took up her phone and dialed her mom's number not even trying to consider her position right now."What are you doing?"

She tried dragging her hand away from Xavier's grip but he seemed to have held on to it so right that her efforts felt effortless."Xavier, what's your problem with me?" Jamie turned to face him fully and with a low tone, she asked. Xavier laughed a bit before responding to the question."Do you think I have a problem with you? Is that what you think? Oh then you must be so dumb and sick in the head" Rita busted out into laughter, she laughed while Xavier joined her."Son, I told you right? She's as sick a

He did hear some voices out in the passage of their apartment; he just didn't feel the need to go out, knowing fully well that among those voices one was Alice's, so he didn't bother."That was not our neighbor Theo, it was Emiliana" It was more like talking about her or calling Emiliana's name made Alice feel so tired."What does she want?"
