There wasn’t anything more hectic than walking in heels across a pavement. She had expected little or no rainfall since it was November but the rain had fallen endlessly.She scratched her back nervously as she walked into the burger palace. Mark had asked that she meet up with him for lunch. At first, she was thrilled at the prospect of having lunch with her boss. Over the past few days, she had had a couple of meetings with members of the project department. They were pleased to have her and they proposed the total amount of money and resources they were going to need. “I’m sorry you got in the rain” Mark frowned as he helped her place her umbrella in a basket. “It’s fine” she smiled wryly as she followed him to the table he reserved She wasn’t nervous, maybe a little bit tense but she was confident in what she had to say. It was a great way to get her mind off the chaos going on. “I didn’t realize you were a fan of tea,” she said, trying to make small talk. Just li

"Read this," Dorcas said, placing the newspaper in front of Roberta. Dorcas had a little boy deliver the news she wanted to be published to her every morning, not that she read them but it was her late husband's favorite thing to do. The morning newspaper had caught her attention and she was sure it was going to stir up so many controversies in the next few days.The only place she could meet with Roberta was at her Pilates class. She had security with her all day so it was difficult to see her.They scheduled their meeting every Wednesday for an hour. Dorcas groaned as she watched a woman do a spine stretch on the mat. Most of the women who attended the class were taking up their positions while she was at a corner discussing with her niece. She would have loved to join them but she couldn’t be seen outside, Wyatt had doubled the amount of people searching for her. It was three weeks to the election and any bad news or information about the candidates or aspirants coul

Monday had come by so quickly and Ruby found herself seated in Mark's office. They had just ended another meeting with some investors who were willing to support the opening of the new restaurant in California.After a weekend of lazing about in Nate’s arms, talking about life and sharing a thousand hugs but zero kisses, she started the week with the brightest smile and determination.She liked to think of Nate as her happy pill and Goodluck charm.She had been feeling burnt out the previous week but all it took was a good conversation from him, forehead kisses and she was all good. She blushed as she reminded herself to act right bec she was at work. "So, where did you grow up?" She askedThey had bagels and coffee in front of them. She had gotten closer to Mark and she enjoyed his company even though they maintained a strictly platonic friendship. "I've lived in Barcelona, Spain for the longest time but my parents are Americans" he said, stirring her coffee "Oh that's

Ruby’s pretty face was twisted in a frown. She had dropped Esme at home and was in a bad mood after Taylor had caused a scene at the store. She had only gotten home a few minutes ago, Nate and Maria were out, it was her chance to rest by herself. She didn't have the time to kick off her heels before the doorbell rang the second time. She let out an exasperated sigh. Whoever was at the door had better had something important to say, she thought. She quickly pulled her hair in a bun and went downstairs. She just came back from a real estate agency. The meeting with the agent, Mrs Dala was stressful, they had spent about two hours talking about different districts. None of the houses they saw impressed her much, there was always something to complain of.Due to the change in the location of the restaurant, she had to change the location of her house in California. She didn’t want a place that was too far from work as she was going to be spending most days there. The first house

“I know it’s hard to believe me and you have been through the worst times in your life. Being a victim of bullying is a very sensitive issue and I’m not going to take it easy on them. The Wyatt’s always have a way of getting away with things. This is why Wyatt had remained unpunished for him crimes” Nate explained“I remember vividly that in highschool, Taylor was the biggest bully but all she got as punishment was detention while the other kids suffered” Nate shook his head to clear his thoughts, this was the last thing he had expected to hear from her. He couldn’t imagine how she had survived through the day, after dealing with his horrible daughter, she also had to deal with a horrible father. “Katie and I have so much planned out with concrete evidence. There are receipts from the transactions Wyatt made, there are videos and even audio and witnesses. He won’t be able to prove his innocence, the police and some lawyers are also investigating the case”he sighed. The whole t
