(The Fundraiser One)

Mrs Ciara grabbed hold of Tiara's arm tightly, staring at her, her mind contemplating how to go about her revelation.

“You better keep this mouth of yours shut Tiara” Mrs Ciara threatened as she let go of her daughter's hand. This wasn't what she wanted, She didn't want to get her daughter to see this side of her.

“I will Mother, as long as you are supportive of my decision and get your husband under control, we don't want Gemini finding out about your little secret” Tiara threatened with a mischievous smile plastered on her lips.

“Tiara” Her mother called out her name, her tone soft with concern.

Tiara stood up from where she sat, making her way to the door as she paused halfway, shooting her mother one last side glance.

“I trust you will handle everything Mother” she added unlocking the door and stepping out of the room knowing she had achieved what she wanted, all that was left was to get her hands on those documents her mom had just shown her.

    Chapter 56The fundraiser two.Gemini pulled away quickly, stunned by Simon's audacity. Did he forget that they were getting a divorce soon? The last thing she wanted was to complicate things or give him false hope.“What are they doing in public?” one of the guests murmured, causing Gemini to hide her face in her hands.“All this young love makes us feel old,” another guest chimed in, chuckling lightly.Gemini’s attention shifted to her stepmother, who wore a disapproving glare as she processed whatever had just transpired between Gemini and Simon. As for Gustavo, well, she didn’t give a damn about his opinion. To her surprise, she spotted her uncle Brandon at the fundraiser—a rarity, since he usually avoided such events, no matter how much Grandma begged him to attend. She thought he would be home in San Francisco by now, but clearly, something was keeping him in New York.“That was quite the show you put on, you little rascal,” Uncle Brandon teased, a playful glint in his eye. “

His green eyes, usually bright and sharp, now appeared dull.“Is that concern I sense in your voice?” he replied, a smirk playing at the corner of his lips as he studied her. When was her due date?

I’m trying to protect you from making decisions you’ll regret!”“By controlling my choices?” Gemini shook her head, her resolve unwavering. “You don’t get to dictate what I should or shouldn’t regret.

Yet, the joy was quickly overshadowed by Gustavo’s chilling words echoing in her mind, urging her to terminate the pregnancy. She couldn’t help but caress her stomach, the thought sending a tremor of both fear and defiance through her.As she approached her room, she noticed her stepmother, Mrs. Ciara, approaching her with that familiar stern expression. Gemini took a steadying breath, determined to avoid conflict, but she could feel tension crackling in the air between them.“Your father mentioned you’d be attending the fundraiser,” Mrs. Ciara stated, her tone clipped.“Yes, I will. Is that a problem for you?” Gemini shot back, narrowing her eyes. “You little brat. If you have any ulterior motives for being there, you’d better reconsider,” her
