Chapter 11“Please, don't take me away…” Lyon pleaded, as he got dragged out of the podium in front of his executives.He wanted to explain himself, he wanted to say he did nothing but, no one was listening. He struggled to free himself but a fight against four hefty men was fruitless. At his left, he saw Wendy standing, her hands akimbo with what looked like a dangerous smirk, which turned into mockery, “I told you not to toil with me, I can bring you down…” she whispered.“If only you listened to me and had left that freak you call a wife, all these wouldn't have happened!” She sounded angry this time.Wendy approached Lyon as though to devour him and slapped both his cheeks. He had to quickly free his hand to hold his cheek, “what was that for?” Lyon yelled.This cracked everyone up and they laughed out loud. He wondered what was funny, whether Wendy's slap or his yell. He felt humiliated, he wished the ground could just open up and swallow him.Lyon looked around for Martins but

Chapter 12Kathryn paced the living room, her phone in hand, glancing now and then at the staircase. She couldn’t focus, her mind still replaying Lyon’s strange behaviour at breakfast. Finally, she tapped her phone screen and scrolled through her contacts, pausing at the name, Rosey. Her closest friend always had a way of lifting her spirits. The call connected after a few rings, and Rosey’s cheerful voice came through. “Kathryn! Long time, girl. What’s up?” Kathryn smiled faintly, sitting on the couch and tucking her legs beneath her. “Hey, Rosey. I just needed someone to talk to. How are you?” “Oh, I’m great,” Rosey said with a light laugh. “Michael and I just got back from a weekend trip. He planned the whole thing as a surprise. It was amazing! I swear that man spoils me too much.” Kathryn’s smiled slightly. She hesitated, not wanting to dampen Rosey’s enthusiasm. “That sounds lovely,” she said softly. “It’s good to hear you’re both doing well.” Rosey caught the tone in

Chapter 13“Going with me? Are you for real?” Kathryn asked surprised, not believing it'd be true.“Of course, I am..” Lyon said as he stood, staring straight at her, “I know you are surprised, but don't be.”Kathryn didn't know what to say, she just nodded in doubt and moved over to the mirror, where her makeup kits were, “Lyon would never follow me anywhere, all jokes..”Kathryn was putting the final touches on her makeup, when she turned slightly, expecting him to go back to his laptop or lie down again. But to her surprise, Lyon was at the wardrobe, pulling out one of his neatly pressed shirts and a pair of trousers. She paused, watching as he slipped the shirt on, buttoning it carefully. He paired it with dark trousers and grabbed his wristwatch from the bedside table.“Are you going somewhere?” she asked to be sure.Lyon looked at her briefly, his expression calm. “Yes,” he said, adjusting his collar. Then, after a moment, he added with a small smile, “With you.” Kathryn bli

Chapter 14Martins led the way through the crowd, weaving between groups of people laughing and chatting. The further they walked, the quieter it became, until they reached a spot where only a few guests lingered. Standing there was a man in his mid-thirties, dressed simply in a plain shirt and trousers. He looked a bit out of place and his eyes lit up the moment he saw Lyon. “Lyon!” the man said, his voice filled with a mix of relief and excitement. Lyon stared at him for a moment, his brows furrowing as he tried to place the face. Then it hit him. “Daniel?” The man nodded quickly. “Yes! It’s me, Daniel.” Lyon blinked in surprise. Daniel was his childhood friend, someone he hadn’t seen in years. They’d grown up in the same neighborhood, sharing countless memories, but life had taken them in different directions. “What are you doing here?” Lyon asked, his tone softening as he stepped closer. Daniel sighed, rubbing the back of his neck. “I didn’t know how else to reach you.

Chapter 15“What? Are you nuts?” Lyon shouted from behind, as though he has been there all these while.“Lyon Alberto?” The guy blinked, “sorry, I didn't know she was yours..” he added and exited the scene.Kathryn heaved as though a load was taken off his shoulder, “where is Martins?” She asked looking around.Lyon joined by searching round, “who knows…”Just then Martins showed up, “are you ready to go?” He asked, sounding polite.Lyon exchanged glances and they both nodded. Stepping inside the car, Martins zoomed off.Lyon and Kathryn got home late, the house was quiet with just a few lights on. Martins parked the car, stepped out, and opened Lyon’s door. Lyon helped Kathryn out, and they walked slowly to the front door, both looking tired but still in good moods. As they entered, Fiona came out from the kitchen, smiling when she saw them. “Welcome back, sir, ma’am,” she said warmly. “Thank you, Fiona,” Kathryn replied, kicking off her heels and rubbing her neck. “I kept dinn

Chapter 16Lyon shrugged. “What? A little spice never hurts anyone.” Kathryn laughed, leaning back against the pillows. “You’re unbelievable.” He grinned, pulling her closer. “And yet, you’re stuck with me.” “Me? Jokes!” Kathryn teased.Lyon sat on the edge of the bed, looking thoughtful. Kathryn noticed him glancing her way a few times, like he wanted to say something but wasn’t sure how to start. She put down the novel she had been pretending to read and looked at him directly. “Lyon, you’ve been acting weird. What is it?” she asked, her tone soft but curious. He rubbed his palms together and let out a deep sigh. “Kathryn, I need to tell you something. For real this time.” Her eyebrows lifted slightly. “For real? Okay, I’m listening.” He gestured toward the chair. “Come sit here with me.” Kathryn hesitated for a second, unsure of what was coming, but his serious tone pulled her in. She stood up and walked over, sitting beside him on the bed. “Alright,” she said, fo

Chapter 17Lyon and Kathryn grew fond of themselves, as Kathryn worked on helping him achieve his goals, “if that would draw him closer to me, then I won't stop him,” she had said to herself.“Knock! Knock!” Someone called from behind the door, Fiona rushed to get the door, it was her sister, Trisha.She was all smiles as she held out her hand for a hug, as usual, Kathryn was sluggish but still hugged her.“How're you, Mrs Alberto?” Trisha asked, taking a seat, she crossed her legs, wiggling them, her hands spread out on the soft sofa.“Trisha, the warrior!” Kathryn hailed as both stole glances from each other, they burst out laughing making Fiona peep into their conversation.“Madam Trisha, do you need anything?” Fiona asked with chuckers.Trisha eyed her, checking around as though she wasn't the only Trisha in the house, “Who is this one being formal with?” She asked, her legs uncrossed now. “Madam, come and sit here, I know you real good..” she added.“Know me? Like?” Fiona asked,

Chapter 18Suddenly, the door cracked open. The sound wasn’t loud, but it was enough to catch their attention. All three women turned their heads in unison, their laughter dying down as they waited to see who it was. Lyon stepped into the room, his usual calm and confident self. His eyes swept over them, and he smiled warmly. “Looks like I walked into something interesting,” he said casually, closing the door behind him. Kathryn, still catching her breath from all the laughing, smiled back at him. “Lyon, we were just talking... nothing serious.” He nodded, his gaze shifting to Trisha. “Trisha, it’s good to see you again,” he said, his tone polite but friendly. “Welcome, Lyon,” Trisha replied, her voice steady but with a hint of her usual boldness. Lyon turned to Kathryn and leaned down to peck her cheek softly. “I’ll be upstairs,” he said, his voice gentle. With that, he straightened up and strode out of the room, his steps calm and measured, leaving the door slightly ajar b

Chapter 19Kathryn’s eyes lit up. “That’s smart. People appreciate when you meet them where they are. And what about the board? How are you handling them?” “That’s where it gets tricky,” Lyon admitted. “Some of them are already backing other candidates. But I’ve been meeting with them individually, presenting my vision, showing them why aligning with me is better long-term.” Kathryn raised a brow. “Is it working?” “Yes, by the way, my influence too,” Lyon said, his tone honest. “It’s not easy convincing people. I’ve got more people on my side right now. It’s all about persistence.” Kathryn smiled, proud of him. “You’re really giving it your all, aren’t you?” “I have to,” Lyon said, leaning closer to her. “This isn’t just about me. It’s about us. If I win, it changes everything.” “You have it,” Kathryn said immediately, her voice firm. “You don’t even have to ask.” Lyon smiled at her, reaching out to take her hand. “That means more to me than you know.” Kathryn squeezed

Chapter 20I thought a gust of wind might send us flying into the sky with you, with your hair like that..” Kathryn continued.Fiona’s eyes widened. “Oh, so now we’re coming for my hair, huh?”Kathryn laughed, holding her hands up in mock surrender. “No, no, I love it. It’s just... a lot to handle some days.”Trisha chimed in, “Yeah, Fiona, you’ve got enough volume to make a cloud jealous.”They all burst into laughter again, the kind of laughter that felt like it could go on forever. The teasing was playful, light-hearted, and just what they needed to keep the mood easy.Fiona put her hands on her hips, shaking her head, but the smile on her face betrayed her. “You two are impossible. I thought I’d get a compliment today, but I see how it is.”Kathryn smiled. “We do love the glam, Fiona. You just might need to tame it down when we’re around. It’s like a walking hurricane some days.”“Oh, so now I’m a hurricane,” Fiona said, pretending to be offended. “What’s next? A tornado?”“Exactl
