Martina's anger simmered as she replayed the heated conversation with Mrs. Sebastain in her mind. She had been so sure that her plan would work, that the mere mention of her name and the fabricated stories she had carefully constructed would be enough to discourage Hills from pursuing a relationship with Regina. But now, it seemed that her efforts had been in vain.

With a frustrated sigh, Martina flung her phone across the room. The device flew through the air, narrowly missing her antique lamp, and landed with a soft thud on her neatly made bed. It was a stroke of luck that it hadn't landed on the hard floor, potentially shattering into pieces.

Martina's mind raced with thoughts of revenge and resentment towards Mrs. Sebastain who had failed to set boundaries between Hills and Regina. She had hoped that Hills' mother, like any typical protective parent, would want to keep her son away from a divorced woman. But it seemed that her assumptions had been misguided.

    Hills and Regina sat on a sofa, with Colin, Daphne and Mirabelle sitting on different sofas - Colin wore a casual but shocked look on his face, he dare not glare at his boss. Daphne was busy glaring at the both of them - She got some nerve.

    Damon sat in his hotel room, sipping on his glass of wine, enjoying a moment of peace before his flight back home. His mind wandered to thoughts of his wife, Charlotte, and the resentment he harbored towards Hills and Regina.After some minutes, He placed the glass down and went over to his wardrobe, pulled his box out and began folding his clothes inside. He has a flight to catch in an hour time. There's nothing to do here.

Please don't let her in," he instructed the receptionist before ending the call.He's in no mood to see anyone fight now, especially not someo

    "Wow, Mum.. This looks nice," Mirabelle said, her eyes sparkling with anticipation as she tried to catch a glimpse of what Regina was making. Peering over the pot, she soon realized she couldn't see through the steam and ingredients.

With a mischievous smile, she pulled it over and began to climb up, being mindful of her mother's warning to be careful not to fall.Regina watched her daughter with a mix of amusement and concern. "Mirabelle, please be careful up there. I don't want you getting hurt," she cautioned gently.Mira giggled, her excitement undeterred. "Don't worry, Mum!

It was a sight she never thought she would witness - her father stepping inside her fashion shop was something she never thought was going to ever happen. She quickly composed herself and called out, "Dad!"

Can't I pay my daughter a visit?"Daphne led her father to a seat in a cozy corner of the shop, and they both settle

"How did you sleep, Regina?" she asked gently.Regina let out a sigh and shook her head. "To be honest, Daphne, I didn't get much sleep at all.

We'll figure this out together."Taking solace in Daphne's reassurance, Regina nodded. "You're right, Daphne. I can't let fear control me, but I
