“Don’t open your eyes until I tell you to, princess,” Sebastian ordered as he freed his hands from Kaira’s eyes.

“Alright, boss,” she responded sarcastically, smiling as she anticipated the surprise. She was blindfolded, and Sebastian had driven them from the house to a secret location. He had covered her eyes with his hands when they got out of the car, claiming she might see through the blindfold.

Sebastian backed away, standing in front of her with a key in his hand. He pulled it from his suit pocket and jiggled it in front of her. “You may open your eyes now,” he whispered.

“I’m blindfolded, remember?” she said with a laugh. He chuckled as he moved to remove the thin cloth covering her eyes.

Kaira adjusted to the light, blinking after having her eyes shut for so long. The first thing she noticed was the key he held up close to her face, gleaming under the sunlight. Her expression turned to confusion and curiosity as she took the key from him.

“What is this for, Seb?” she asked, ar

    “Your apology seems to have touch the heart of many, because they are now leaning towards your story.” Mathias beamed happily as he stared at the comments from the press release from the past day. Julian smiled smugly, “Of course it would, father. I read through the words Evelyn had prepared for me over and over.

    Mathias sat on the chair in front of Sebastian desk stiffly as he tried to control his racing heart. “Nice to meet you, again father in law, it’s been a while.” Sebastian said mockingly as he flipped over their contract on his desk.Mathias looked at him suspiciously feeling there was something definitely off, the man has never referred to him as father in law before—he was quite intent on keeping it professional.“Yes it has been, What is the matter with the contract?” He asked directly, trying hard to cover his fear. Sebastian glanced between him and back to the paper they had signed, “Ohh It’s no big deal.” He shrugged off, pushing the paper for him to read the terms written on it. Mathias gazed at the paper, then back to Sebastian, “Go on and read it.” Sebastian encouraged, his lips curling up in a dark smile. Mathias exhaled before reading through the open page in their contract, his eyes widening as he read over the terms written. He had to read it several times to confirm h

The nerve of him to ask me to pay a $1 million within two weeks for breach of contract.” He explained sitting on their bed as he tried to control his racing heart. “What? Does that mean his calling off the contract?” Claudia asked sharply.“What do you think, Claudia? Of course he is calling it quits because we didn’t keep our terms in the contract and yet we have been earning from associating with his company.” He said angrily, blaming himself for believing he could play smart with a man like Sebastian. “I’m certain it’s that slut that convinced him to call off the contract.” Claudia snarled angrily, as always blaming Kaira.Mathias shook his head, “No, I don’t think she did that, why convince him to call off the contract after having co

He chuckled, unfazed by the disdainfully eyes she was shooting him. “Don’t be like that, sister in law and here I believed we would be buddies.” He said playfully, in a firm voice. “Well you have the wrong notion there.” She snorted. “Why? Are you scared my cousin would get jealous?” He asked teasingly, his eyes hinting at something she was yet to understand. “What do you want?” She asked getting straight to the point.

Today was his 77th birthday and they were throwing a party just within family. “We would never miss your birthday party for anything, Grandfather.” Sebastian responded in a light tone, pulling the man into a hug. “Happy birthday, Grandfather.” He whispered with a small smile pulling away. “Happy birthday, Grandfather.” Kaira said, pecking his cheeks. “Thank you, Kaira.” He responded with a warm smile.

    “Can you hear me, Kaira?” Sebastian voice echoed in Kaira’s subconscious.“Sebastian?”She responded in a low tone, trying to open her heavy eyes. “Yes it’s me, princess. Can you see me?” He asked softly, and she felt a hand on her face. She could only see a blur vision of him because her eyes weren’t completely opened. She tried harder, slowly adjusting her eyes to the light in the hospital. She tried to arch her neck, but she couldn’t. It was broken. “Don’t try to hard, princess.” Sebastian said softly, his face coming to her vision. “Sebastian.” She cried out, with a smile on her face. A smile of relief. “Yes, princess. I’m here.” He assured, holding her hand and sitting at the edge of the bed. “My whole body hurts, Sebastian.” She confessed, her voice cracking. “You’ll be fine, princess.” He gave charming smile, kissing her forehead lightly.

    “So the buyer is coming today to see the house.” Mathias announced in a light tone. Evelyn and Claudia’s hummed in response, the sadness on their faces was clear. It still felt surreal that they had really crumbled to that level, and worst to the point of even selling their house to get extra cash.“You are both quiet.” He said, sitting on the couch. “What do you expect me to say, Mathias?” Claudia spat in a harsh tone, “Am I supposed to be happy with the way things are going with us now?” If Mathias were to hold grudges against them for how the treated him when he was in jail,then he would have thrown them out. But he considered them his family which is why he let it go.“We aren’t as broke as you make us out to be, Claudia.” Mathias tried to convince himself than her. “Really, Mathias? We had cars in this house, but what happened to them huh?” She questioned sarcastically. “We sold everything.” Evelyn responded in a gloomy tone. “Exactly, Mathias. We sold everything to clear u

Julian sealed his lips, instantly standing up to his feet. What he had understood with Sebastian after working with him for a short while was that he’s calm was only reserved for Kaira. “I’ll be leaving now.” He announced, and they both gave him a subtle nod.

    “What are you doing here?” Claudia’s tone came off harsh, as she stared at Mathias in front of the door. They had laid off staffs because they couldn’t afford such luxury anymore. “This is my house, Claudia.” He snapped, pushing her out of the way, and walking into the house. He was released today, after his lawyer had managed to come up with the money. “When were you released?” She asked in near anger, shutting the doors and following him. “So you did know I was arrested, yet you didn’t bother to coming?” Mathias snarled. Originally he believed they weren’t aware, but it was almost impossible when the news of his arrest was everywhere, yet he forced himself to believe otherwise. “Of what use was it?” Claudia spat out, no longer hiding her emotions. “You’re back, father.” Evelyn beamed, walking into the living room. Mathias sent her a cold stare raising his hand up as she tried to embrace him. “Don’t you dare father me, Evelyn.” She swallowed, flinching away from him. She had n

He’ll do everything in his power to get out of there.” Sebastian countered with a dark expression.“Good thing we have other means of putting him in prison.” She quipped, and they both chuckled. “It wouldn’t be too early to celebrate right, Seb?” Kaira’s eyes glinted. “You’re not supposed to be drinking, princess.” Sebastian reprimanded, setting her legs down gently as he to sank on the space clo
