"You sent for me..." Hayley stated, drawing Adrian's attention as she stepped into his office in elegant strides, after gently closing the door behind her.Adrian whose gaze had been fixed on the computer screen in front of him, lifted his head upon hearing hearing her. A genuine smile spread across his face. "Nina..." He drawled, reclining in his seat as he watched Hayley approach his desk.Hayley greeted him. "Hi. Good morning." "Morning, baby. How are you?" Adrian asked warmly. "I'm fine. Thank you," Hayley replied, her eyes fixed on his expectantly, waiting for him to continue the conversation. But he remained quiet. After a moment, Hayley spoke up. "Yes, Adrian? I mean, yes sir? May I know why you sent for me?" She asked, standing before his desk.Still mesmerized by her presence, Adrian confessed sincerely. "You look stunning, Nina. You just keep looking more beautiful with each passing day. What's your secret? Hmm?"Hayley chuckled incredulously, her heart melting at his co

Hayley was completely engrossed in her portrait painting when she overheard the gossip of two of her colleagues. She pretended she was still solely focused on her work, but she couldn't help but listen to their conversation.MJ, One of her colleagues, said to the other, Mitchell in hushed tones. "I'm telling you, It's Davina, I'm sure. I saw her going into the new executive's office. I can place a hundred dollars that they will hook up in there. She will seduce him. That's her niche. He's an executive and her kind of man after all."Hayley stiffened, her eyes growing wide and her heart thudding rapidly against her chest as she processed their words. What!!?Hayley heard Mitchell, chiming in, only fueling Hayley's disbelief. "You don't need to bet on it, MJ. I believe and I'm certain too. I mean, who could resist that hot, ass fine lady. If I were a man, I'd fall for her seduction too. Well, unless Executive Damian is gay, of course." She said and they chuckled in amusement. But their

Leonardo was seated in his office, his phone against his ear with an expressionless gaze etched on his face as he spoke into the gadget indifferently. "It has come to my knowing, brother, that you blackmailed one of my subjects and coerced him into stealing from me, Lorenzo. Have you lost your mind?" Leonardo bit out, in a calm yet annoyed tone, his anger palpable. After receiving the text from Bob the previous day about Paolo's confession, Leonardo asked Bob to investigate and uncover the truth. It didn't take long before they confirmed Paolo's story, that he was telling them the truth, revealing it was indeed all Lorenzo's doing. For the first time in a long time, Leonardo heard anyone's plea for mercy as he decided to have compassion towards Paolo and let him off the hook. But not without striping him of his position and title in his company, and further banishing him from Clasold City. Despite the punishment, Paolo was grateful and relieved he could return home to his family wi

The atmosphere on that Saturday evening was gloomy, coupled with the awkward silence that enveloped the four individuals, seated around the dining table as they all tried to conceal their true feelings of animosity, remorse, and regret, except for Adrian, who was genial as he was unaware of the tension among the other three_ Leonardo, Hayley, and Clara."I'm glad you eventually decided to join us, Clara. I was afraid you wouldn't come." Adrian said warmly to Clara, who was seated across him at the square table for four.Leonardo and Hayley remained silent, their gazes avoiding eye contact, while Clara chuckled hesitantly and nervously, turning to face Adrian. "Of course, I'm here. I'm sorry I gave you the wrong impression yesterday. I just had a lot on my plate to deal with... but here I am to celebrate this success with you. Congratulations again, Adrian." Clara replied, forcing a smile as her gaze remained fixed on naive Adrian. Although Clara's outward expression was a warm smile

Hayley returned to her living room that night, her distress and tiredness palpable. She had just checked in on Daisy who was already tucked into bed by her babysitter, Freya. It was past 9 pm when Hayley glanced at the wall clock to check the time.Her face contorted with anguish and bitterness as she took a seat on the couch. Her heart was thudding rapidly, and her head still throbbed with ache from all the chaos that had happened that evening. She regretted ever attending the stupid double date, especially since she had no idea Clara was going to show up there later, unaware. Adrian had told her that Clara had declined his invitation, thus leading Hayley to believe everything would be fine between herself, Adrian, and Leonardo. She thought she could handle them, coupled with Leonardo's cooperation. However, her plans were ruined by Clara's arrival. Hayley was taken aback when she saw Clara there later. She had considered leaving immediately, but she couldn't bring herself to do it
