After breakfast, Athena dragged her husband towards her gallery room. They entered and locked the door securely before going to her table filled with brushes and paints. Her hands paused as she tilted her head.

"Terrence, the paints had expired. We can't use them." She pouted as a frown made its way to her forehead. She couldn't refrain herself from shaking her head as she checked on the bottles' lids. They almost dried up after being there too long.

"Told you, let's go somewhere…" Terrence mumbled while gazing at her paintings hanging on the walls. His eyes sparkled as he recollected the memories that bind to every piece of it.

"Where are we heading?" She glared at him.

Terrence strode towards her and wrapped his arms around her shoulders from behind aligning his mouth on her ear. "Honeymoon…" he whispered.

He huffed, harboring a huge breath as he said. "As far as I could remember, all the branches of our stores are equipped with men managers, so tell me who put you in this position?"*I… I…" Miss Torres stammered nervously, lowering her head. How could she tell that she managed to get into the position by using a woman's trick?Athena frowned and looked at her husband. "So the branch belongs to you too?"He nodded. "Yeah. We

    WILSON RESIDENCEHannah was leisurely bathing stuffed in her bathtub with enormous bubbles covering her body when her mother barged in. The older woman's sudden interruption caught her off guard that she immediately froze. She was naked and her bruises in the neckline hadn't healed yet. Her hands tried to cover that area but it was too late. She was already caught red handed."Hannah, what the hell happened to you?" Her mother suddenly roared at her causing her body to shake in fear. The water ripples, splashing around the bathtub."Mo-mother…" she stammered nervously. Eyes flickering in fear and panic.The older woman sprinted towards her elegantly and bent down.

"Are these bruises, huh?"Hannah slowly dropped her hand and nodded her head meekly as to not make her mother suspicious. "Yes, mother…" She mumbled shyly. Her cheeks gradually reddened in shame as she lowered her head.

Anton and Pamela were left with no choice but to be obliged to her caprices but before that they managed to leave a few words for her friends to keep an eye on her for the next couple of hours. "Can you guys watch over her for a couple of hours?" Anton seemed to be uncertain with his words as he eyed Sam and Ashley intently."Brother, I'm not a kid anymore. You don't have to treat me like a child. I can handle myself." Athena groaned, ostensibly getting impatient at her brother's insistence."Don't worry man, I will spend the night here just to keep a close eye on her." Sam assured as he tapped Anton's shoulder.

    A country…The sky was clear yet the surroundings remained freezing cold. Last night, it was snowing heavily. The streets were covered with frost. Terrence stirred into another position, reaching for his blankets to cover himself. His eyes snapped wide open when his palm touched something warm. His head jerked to his side and found a woman. Her creamy back displayed in his view. He suddenly jumped out of his bed, alarmed and baffled. He looked down, checking on his lower part of the body. He was still wearing his jeans. He sighed in relief. He was certain that nothing had happened between him and the woman but her appearance in his room still made him confused.'Where the hell did this woman come from?' he thought furiously to himself.He tried to recall what happened last night.*** flashback ***After his hours of flight, Terrence directed himself to ADAMS International branch without further delay.

    Perhaps Athena enjoyed the process of her make over so much as she didn't notice that she had been sitting in her comfy chair for almost three hours. If not for Vincent who came up to inform them that the car has arrived, she wouldn't realize that her husband has been gone from her sight for a couple of hours already. Curious, she asked the butler. "Uncle where was he?" "You mean your husband?" "Yes. Have you seen him?" "Ah," Vincent smiled. "He went to get the car ready for you and he also left a few instructions." "Instructions?" Her newly trimmed brows raised as she asked. "What instructions if I may ask?" "He said that he won't be here to pick you up and that someone else will do that for him. He will wait for you at the venue, Mrs. Adams." Vincent narrated fluently according to Terrence's instructions earlier. "Since that was the case, please tell the driver to wait for a little bit longer." She said without thinking too much.

    Unbeknownst to Hannah, her movements were being monitored fom the outside. To make sure that she won't do something horrible during her detention period, Terrence asked someone to keep an eye on her. Even her pregnancy was being reported to him and he firmly instructed that no matter what happened, the innocent child must be born safe as it has nothing to do with what she has done. Therefore when she suggested for an abortion, the nurse shook her head and refused her request right there and then saying that... "I'm sorry, Miss. We're not abortionists. That was against the law of human and God." Hearing this, Hannah laughed. "Do you think I still care about that goddamn law? Look where I am." She said, "I'm here in jail so why should I give a sh*t about the law?!" "Miss," the nurse sighed helplessly and replied, "...why do you sound like you have lost all your hope? Have you known that you might given the chance to come out if you truly show your sincere repentance? You're convicte

    Ashley felt her knees turning jelly when his cold and dominating voice rang in her ears. 'What was he doing here?' she wondered. The man's oppressing aura was too much for her to bear, turning the usually peaceful atmosphere into tense. However, this was the area that men are strictly forbidden according to the establishment's rules and regulations therefore she has all the freedom to move whether he likes it or not. Moreover, working hours has long been ended after he dismissed her harshly at the office so why was he still barking at her at this hour? As per their agreement, she has to look and obey him as her boss during working hours but not in places like this. This is the moment of her privacy and she had all the freedom to do whatever she wanted therefore she turned around without hesitation and spoke in an ironic manner.

"Aren't you done yet? What took you so long?" Anton asked her coldly. She swallowed hard before she replied. "Y-yes, Mr. Stanford. It was done now." "Put them all in the safe." He barked. "Hurry up! We don't have much time left!" Ashley nodded as she stood up. In one swift, she took all the documents from her table then she scurried out, heading towards the CEO's office. Anton eyed her sharply while following behind. When she reached inside, she bit her bottom lip in frustration while scolding herself in silence. 'Ashley Mills!
