Back at Mr Thatcher's apartment. Amanda was inside her bathroom brushing her teeth. "Someone killed my father and I will find out who. Aiden, I hope you and your family have nothing to do with it," Amanda said looking at her reflection in the mirror. Back at Aiden's Haga went to inform Ana about her visitor. "Your sister is here," Haga announced."Alice?" Ana asked standing to her feet. "She is in the living room. She came with a travel bag. Looks to me like she came to stay," Haga said and folded her lips. "What, a travelling bag?" Ana asked stopping at the door."Mr Scott would not like this," Ana said and exited the room to see her sister. At the top of the staircase, Ana could see Alice sitting on the sofa scanning the room. Ana looked at her for a while and descended the staircase into the living room. "Alice," Ana called out to her. "Sister, how are you doing?" Alice asked standing to her feet. "I am okay but what brought you here?" Ana asked gesturing for Alice to sit d
Aiden was returning to his room when he saw the living room front door open from where he stood. He waited to see who it was only to see Amanda dragging a huge travelling back inside, followed by her driver, Marcus also carrying two huge bags. Aiden frowned looking at the two. "Aren't you going to welcome me home?" Amanda asked, looking at Aiden from the living room. Aiden just walked away without saying anything. Amanda just rolled her eyes and turned to Marcus. "Take my bags to my room," Amanda said to Marcus as she made herself comfortable on the sofa. She picked up the TV remote, turned on the TV and started browsing through the channels. She turned off the TV and grabbed a magazine. All the stations were still talking about her father's burial. Alice and Ana descended the staircase into the living room. "Ana, you are still here and who is that?" Amanda asked seeing the two. "I am Alice. Ana's little sister," Alice introduced with a smile but Amanda frowned looking at her u
"Aiden, I am still your wife. We are married," Amanda said seeing Aiden was ignoring her. "You wanted to be married to me. I granted you that request. What more do you want from me," Aiden said turning to look at Amanda sitting on his bed. "I want you to perform your duties as a husband," Amanda yelled. "Remember your vows to me?" she added. "I do recall my vows. I wrote it myself and I am doing as promised," Aiden said and got up from behind the desk, taking his laptop with him. "When you are done admiring my room, you can close the door on your way out," he added and headed for the door. "Aiden," Amanda yelled getting down from the bed and Aiden stopped in his tracks, turning slowly to look at furious Amanda. "On our wedding day, just in case you have forgotten. Let me repeat my vows to you. Amanda Thatcher, on this special day, I honour a family request to make you a partner. I will shelter you and support you. With this ring, I officially make it public we are a team," Aiden s
Inside the kitchen, Alice was chatting with the servants, trying to find out more about Amanda and Aiden. Ana frowned upon hearing Alice ask a question and wondered why she was interested in Aiden and Amanda. "Hey, Sis, I was just having a wonderful conversation about Mr and Mrs Scott," Alice said looking a bit awkward. "I see," Ana replied and opened the fridge. "Ms Morrison do you need anything?' asked the head servant. "Oh, just getting something for my little sister to eat," Ana said and the head servant's eyes shifted to Alice and she wondered how little Alice was looking at a young lady who looked the same age as Ana if not older. "I am getting breakfast ready. Would you like to wait a few more minutes?" the head servant asked. "Alice, can you wait? You are the one saying you are dead hungry," Ana asked. "Depends on what is for breakfast," Alice replied and the head servant was already picking a lot from the way Ana spoke and the way Alice spoke. "Sourdough avocado toast
"Whatever she was drugged with, has taken a toll on her. It is destroying her slowly and there is nothing medical that can be done. She needs to have children now if she wants to be a mother if not she will never have one," Dr Jerome said. "Don't tell her. Let's keep this between us," Aiden said. "Mr Scott, I don't think that is the best decision. She is going barren. She needs to know so she can act fast if she wants to have children in the future," Dr Jerome advised. "How much time does she have?" Aiden asked. "With the progress we have so far unless anything changes or another trigger sets in, she has up to a year and she will not be able to have children," Dr Jerome said. "That is enough time to allow a natural cause of events rather than scaring her with the health condition," Aiden said. "What we need to do now is figure out a way for her to have a regular medical check to know the progress of the condition while we work on her relationship," Aiden said and Dr Jerome though
"Here is your work contract. Take your time to read through it and sign it. Work starts on Monday," Aiden said and stood to his feet. Ana was surprised looking at the three documents paper in her hand, wondering when Aiden had prepared it. "Monday is tomorrow," Ana said "Yes. That means.......," Aiden said looking at his wrist-watch. " It is 6: 50 a.m. now. You have from now till midnight to read a three-document paper and decide," he said. "That will be all unless you have a question," he added. "The clothes I have," Ana began drawing Aiden's attention to the dress she was wearing. "I am not sure if they are appropriate for work," Ana said and lowered her head. "I don't have enough to buy new clothes for an office," she added. "Here, take this and get yourself some clothes and shoes for the office," Aiden said and gave his black card to Ana. "Thank you," Ana said accepting the card. Ana exited Aiden's office and returned to her room. Alice saw her entering and followed block
"Hand her over to the HR and join me at the meeting," Aiden said not at all happy with the way Mr Harper was looking at Ana. "Yes, sir," Mr Harper said still looking at Ana in admiration. "This way Ms Morrison," he said. "Mr Harper," Aiden said"Yes, boss," Mr Harper responded moving his attention to Aiden."Ask the HR to see me in my office," Aiden said. "Follow me," he said to Ana and started walking towards his office. Mr Harper made way for Aiden and Ana to leave as he stood there staring at the back of Ana like he had been charmed. Once Aiden and Ana were no longer in view, Mr Harper headed for the HR office. "Gosh, what a beauty in a simple package. I am settling down this year. I finally found my Eve," Mr Harper thought as he opened the door to the HR office. "Mr Scott would like to see you," Mr Harper said and headed for the meeting room. Aiden sat behind his desk while Ana sat on the chair in front of his desk. The HR manager entered Aiden's office. "Sir, you sent for
The rest of the onboarding session was very unpleasant. Kate who earlier was walking Ana through the training session, ensuring she understood everything, now did not care if Ana followed or not. "That will be all for today. I will see you tomorrow," Kate said, exiting the training room. It was half an hour past 4 p.m. Ana remained in the training room, unsure what to do next or where to go. Aiden was done and back in his office working on his laptop. Mr Harper was done with a work Aiden tasked him with and was now going around looking for Ana. He didn't ask anyone because he didn't want anyone to know he was looking for the new employee. After moving from department to department, he opened the training room door and found Ana. "Good evening, Ms Morrison, right?" Mr Harper greeted. "Yes," Ana responded, turning to look at the person who had spoken. "Are you done with your onboarding session for today?" Mr Harper asked. "I am not sure. Just waiting for what next," Ana replied u
