Tears

Jessica's heart pounded with worry as she dialed James' number once again, only to be met with the same unreachable tone. Panic gnawed at her insides, a knot tightening in her stomach with each failed attempt to reach him. Steve, on the other hand, seemed unfazed by the situation."Are you going to remain this way? Your brother hasn't come back home, and you don't look restless or worried about it," Jessica snapped, her frustration boiling over. But Steve, carrying Ryan, simply turned away and headed towards the bedroom, indifferent to her concern."You are wicked and arrogant, Steve. Can't you think of the help he's rendered to your son and me instead of judging him for one mistake he committed today?" Jessica's voice trembled with emotion, pleading for understanding. Yet Steve's silence only fueled her anger as he disappeared into the bedroom, leaving her alone with her fears.With a frustrated sigh, Jessica sank into her chair, her mind swirling with anxiety. In desperation, she tu

Coming back home

The room was bathed in soft morning light, its gentle glow casting a serene ambiance. James stirred as the light danced across his face, coaxing him from his slumber.

Sensing his movement, Naomi stirred awake, her eyes meeting James's with a mixture of curiosity and apprehension.As Naomi slipped down from the bed in search of her car keys, memories of the previous night flooded back. She recalled bringing James to the hotel room, his drunken insistence on intimacy, and her futile attempts to break free from his grasp. Despite her efforts, she had found herself trapped in a disconcerting situation, ultimately succumbing to exhaustion and sleeping beside him.James's inquiry broke the silence, his voice strained with a hint of indignation. Naomi felt a surge of frustration at his obliviousness to the events of the night before, coupled with the underlying resentment stemming from his behavior

Contract

"You know, I still don't believe James will ask his brother to leave or do the right thing," Rowan stated to Jessica, who stood beside her.After James arrived home, he offered a flimsy excuse and didn't bother engaging in any discussion with Rowan. It was as if he didn't even acknowledge her presence.However, after a while, he visited Rowan's apartment and confronted his brother, who seemed equally angered."I can't allow you in my apartment again. Do the needful if you still want Jessica and Ryan, or if you prefer your second woman because of the stability she offers as the president of the family company," James said in an unfriendly manner. Steve appeared ready to retaliate, but Jessica intervened."Don't worry, I will leave. I'll find us an apartment by tomorrow," Steve declared, but Jessica stopped him."I can't continue to live in hiding, scared of letting people know about my Ryan. Make a decision as Uncle James said. You need to choose if you want us or not. But you don't ha

Playing games

Chapter."Yes, boss," Richard replied, his voice reflecting a mixture of deference and uncertainty."Offer him a contract," David said, his words catching Richard off guard."A contract, boss? What if Miss Flora becomes upset? She might wonder why you didn't offer her family a contract. The shareholders could summon you, especially since you're pretending to have lost your memory. You can't show up now, unless you want Miss Flora to discover the truth," Richard expressed his concerns to David, his voice tinged with apprehension."Don't worry. Offer it to him, but keep it discreet for now. Only you and the accountant who disperses funds should know. And make sure you emphasize that nobody else must find out for the time being," David instructed, his tone resolute. Richard nodded in understanding, and they resumed their focus on the tasks that demanded David's attention.Richard couldn't help but admire David. Despite his demeanor often being perceived as cold and aloof, he treated peop

The Rude girl

Before James exited the hospital, he had arranged to meet Naomi, only to hear the distressing news that she was banned from leaving the house. Naomi, a pivotal figure in her father's company, had inadvertently stirred up trouble by being seen at clubs, inviting scrutiny from shareholders and adding pressure to her father's plate. She was slated to marry into another wealthy family to enhance the company's stature. James, though conflicted, found himself driving toward Naomi's house despite his vow to stay away and avoid complicating matters for both families. The prospect of being desired by Naomi's father for his daughter weighed heavily on him, even as he questioned his own intentions. Arriving at the grand mansion, James couldn't help but admire the exquisite taste of Naomi's father. The meticulously landscaped gardens, the elegant architecture both inside and out, and the grandeur of the estate left James in awe, despite his familiarity with opulent surroundings. "It seems I'll

Where did you get it?

Naomi could only hum softly as she listened to Rowan's teasing remarks. Bending down, she reached for the coffee cups placed in front of them, an order she had made for both of them. Savoring the warmth, she took a delicate sip before carefully placing the cup back on the table.Inwardly, Naomi grasped the subtle undertones of Rowan's words. Since meeting James, she felt a shift within herself, a desire to embody qualities that might earn his admiration. But could she confide in Rowan that the catalyst for her change was the very man who harbored feelings for her?"Miss Rowan, I can't say there's any love involved. Let's just say someone's critique nudged me towards self-improvement," Naomi replied, her voice tinged with uncertainty. Rowan's gentle smile lingered, leaving Naomi to ponder if her response had hit the mark."You know, being challenged by someone and feeling compelled to better oneself because of them, well, it's akin to love. You might not realize it now, but soon enough

Secret

"What do you mean, David? It was the marriage certificate we both signed, isn't that what we both wanted back then? Just because you didn't have the memory doesn't change the fact that your mother is aware of it, and a mother can't lie," Flora's voice came over the phone, her tone laced with frustration and desperation. She wasn't even attempting to come to David's house, realizing she had nothing left to lose."Flora, even if it is true, I don't want this marriage anymore. We have to annul the certificate," David stated firmly, using a word he never wanted to utter."What? David, are you trying to use me and then discard me? We've been dating for almost seven years. Now you don't want me anymore, and you didn't consider the repercussions it will have on my family and me, on the company, on everyone who believed we would end up together... I won't force you, David, but think about the consequences. We are legally married starting next week. If we don't announce it publicly, I don't kn

Knowing the truth

What?" David's father asked, surprised by his son's allegations. "Dad, answer me. Are you involved with her too?" David demanded. "No, I'm not. And I'm disappointed that you would think so little of your father," David's father said. "I don't care, Dad. If she knows something about you significant enough to trade for my safety, then it must be substantial, and I need to know about it today," David said defiantly "Sit down, and I will tell you everything," David's father said. Reluctantly, David slumped into the chair, his anger palpable, emanating from him like a dark cloud. "Firstly, I discovered the kind of person Flora was after you started seeing her. Knowing how much you love her compelled me to dig deeper. I didn't want you to end up with the wrong woman. After finding out that she was involved with different men, I decided to confront her myself instead of letting you do it. During our conversation, she confessed that her uncle had forced her into those situations and that
