Chapter 1

“A good heart is the heaviest burden to bear…”Kaylie recalled one of her grandpa’s statements, which she never understood its weight until she received the notification of the new pictures her husband’s driver sent- the photo that shattered her heart.Right in her hand was the picture that had been making uncontrollable tears flood out of her swollen eyes- a clear image of her husband and his unknown mistress, which she was eagerly on her way to find out.“We’re there, ma.”The car parked, and she got down.She dug her hand into her jacket pocket and fixed her eyes on the luxury gate of the mansion, which was certain her husband was inside with his mistress.She sniffed and wiped her face. “Calm down, Kaylie,” she said to herself in a whisper.She wiped her face and licked her lips before inhaling deeply and exhaling softly, stopping the tears. “Kaylie, remember why you are here….” She told herself, and without waiting for another second, she put her phone in her jacket pocket and pa

Chapter 2

“You’ve to stop now…” Kaylie told herself, giving herself reasons to stop crying.Her tears had been uncontrollable since she walked out of the mansion and got into the cab which had been driving for over an hour, heading to her family’s home. The place where someone who hated her and never hid it lived.She wished there was somewhere else to go, but there was none. She had no friends because her mother forbade her from moving with her peers from childhood till she graduated from college.Kaylie was just a little girl in an orphanage home before Emily and Andrew adopted her. They hadn’t conceived a child when they adopted her, and after they were blessed with one, they neglected her.Emily constantly reminded Kaylie that she had no place in the family and that even if she would have one in the world, it would be while serving under her daughter, Wendy.“You’re nothing without us! We took you in so your entire life, don’t you ever compete with my daughter! The only reason you still ex

Chapter 3

A few days later.*“Where are you coming from?” Wendy threw a question immediately as Kaylie entered, her right leg crossed on the left as she picked up her wine and sipped it.Kaylie sighed. She was tired and didn’t want to get into an argument, so she headed to her room. She had been staying alone in her room for the past week, and the last time she went out was when she visited the lawyer to sign a divorce paper. She went out a few hours ago to search for Jaxon but didn’t find him or even trace his whereabouts.She asked his father about her grandfather, but he didn’t know and didn’t even care. Or perhaps he knew, but didn’t want her to know.Wendy put her wine down and paced to Kaylie’s front. “You’re getting worse every day,” she uttered. She sighed, rubbing her forehead with her right hand and the left on her waist. “You’re disgusting. I just don’t know how long I would have to put up with you before Mom would find a solution,”She raised her eyebrows and shivered her head. “I

Chapter 4

Kaylie was nervous. A part of her mind warned her, telling her she had made a wrong decision that would lead to her destruction, and another part that didn’t think twice before signing the agreement kept pushing her. However, it was too late to have a second thought- she was already in a car sent by the Garcia to pick her up.She was on her way to a blind date with an heir of a conglomerate family who had once been the talk of the city, every lady Mr. Perfect, but suddenly vanished for years with no explanation for the public. And now, she was on her way to meet a stranger who, whether or not she wanted to change her mind, would become her husband in less than a week.Knowing they were getting closer to the venue at the roll of the tyre, Kaylie’s heart started pounding. She was fidgeting because the timid part of her mind seemed to have taken over.She held the left part of her chest and half-closed her eyes as she discharged a short, yet deep, breath. “Stay calm, Kaylie,” she told he

Chapter 5

“Wow!” Kaylie toned in awe immediately as the ironed crafted gate opened, and she sighted the great grand mansion before her. The mansion was the Garcia family’s residence, and it was quite popular, but many could only imagine and picture its appearance in their minds.The mansion’s sleek, modern facade gleamed with floor-to-ceiling windows, polished chrome accents, and creamy white stone. A tranquil water feature flowed seamlessly into an infinity pool, blurring the lines between indoors and outdoors. Lush greenery and meticulously manicured gardens around the estate provide a serene oasis amidst the luxurious surroundings.Kaylie looked around and joggled her head as the luxurious car the Garcia sent over to pick her up glided up the winding driveway.As the car stopped before the grand entrance, a liveried chauffeur with the Garcia family’s logo on his coat chest sprang to attention and opened the door with a flourish.Kaylie stepped out onto the driveway, her stilettos clicking on

Chapter 6

Sadie led Kaylie into the kitchen and immediately as they stepped in, the maids stopped their activities and looked in their direction. They bowed their head and without saying a word or waiting for a go-ahead, they continued with their activities.Sadie walked to the big rectangular table at the center of the kitchen with covered dishes of food and stews. She arrived at the front dish and the maid beside it quickly opened the meal for her to see. And she repeated the same action until she inspected all the dishes.She walked back to Kaylie’s side. “This is how it’s been done,” she whispered. “All meals must be checked before they will take them out.”Kaylie smiled. “Noted, ma.” She said.Sadie turned around and slipped her fingers, ordering, “bring them out.”“Okay!” The maid said in unison, and immediately as the maid at the entrance closed the door behind Sadie and Kaylie, Mrs. Chloe, the chief maid and coordinator, looked around.“You…” she uttered, pointing to a few of the maids,

Chapter 7

Chairman Paul came out of the room, but the door didn’t make a sound for Kaylie and Gage to notice his presence, so he folded his arms and leaned his body on the wall to watch.Kaylie accepted the handshake. “Deal,” she agreed, her lips filled with an excited beam. She released Gage’s hand and stared at him in the eyes. “So, let’s proceed to the next thing,”She stretched out her hand and requested. “Where is the contract?”The question piqued Chairman Paul’s interest, and his lips worked against his mind as he took a step closer, his curiousness taking over. “What contract?” He intervened.“Hun!” Gage and Kaylie exclaimed with their eyes enlarged. Kaylie quickly put her hand down beside her and took a step backward.Chairman Paul moved closer. He stared at Gage’s face and opened his mouth to direct his question to him, but Gage quickly looked away, avoiding his eye contact with him as always.Gage loathed his father and blamed him for everything he had passed through and was currentl

Chapter 8

Gage pulled the door with his leg, and Kaylie pulled him inside. She moved him to the bedside and walked back to the door and closed it.She turned around and as she took a step forward, a thought zoomed into her mind, causing her to halt for a second with her brows furrowed. “Are you sure it’s safer here?” She threw a question, and without waiting for a response, she turned backward and locked the door. “No, I think it’s safe now.”Gage scoffed. “No one comes in and out of nowhere without my permission. Not even the old witch and that status called a chairman,” he said. “Though I still can’t guarantee they can’t eavesdrop. I had no control over who was outside. I can’t see them, so it’s hard to know.”Kaylie tightened her lips, comprehending, “Okay,” she uttered, prolonging the last alphabet. She nodded her head for a second, adding, “with this, you mean the wall has an ear? Nowhere is the safest; I just have to be vigilant.”Gage tinted his lips with a smile and stared at Kaylie for

Chapter 9

Sadie walked out of the room. She looked at the sitting room, and seeing Kaylie wasn’t there, she glanced into Gage’s room next to Bryson’s on the other side. She exhaled softly and tiptoed until she arrived in front of the room.She wanted to look inside through the peephole but was short and her head couldn’t reach it. She stood on her toes until her eyes reached the lens level.She moved her head closer, with her right eye closed and the opened left glued to the lens, trying to peep through it into the room, but she saw nothing.She moved her head backward, and attempted it again, closing her left eye and opening the right, but she still couldn’t see anything. “Shit…” she whispered. Her effort was a waste, and she was already feeling a slight pain in her feet, so she gave up and stood straight on her feet.She turned around to the sitting room to wait until Kaylie came out, but the curiosity in her won for the second time, and without giving it a second thought, she turned backward

Chapter 10

“Mother…” Kaylie called, staring backward to see Sadie hadn’t taken a step forward.Sadie shook her head and she smiled. “Oh. I’m sorry,” she apologized and leaped forward. She arrived beside Kaylie and grabbed her hand. “Let’s go.”“Hun!” Kaylie sounded in opposition. She looked at Sadie’s face, saying, “the chairman, would he want me inside the same room with him?”Sadie grinned. “He has gone out.”“Okay.” Kaylie uttered. She smiled and entered the room after Sadie, holding hands with her.Immediately as they entered, Sadie released Kaylie’s hand and paced to the bed. She picked up a pillow at the edge and took it to the header, placing it in its right position.After setting the bed and adjusting the duvet, she turned to Kaylie, smiling. “Please, have your seat,” she offered, pointing at the Armchair and a table in its front, at the left side of the room, after the door.Kaylie bowed her head. She rushed to the chair and adjusted her dress before sitting down. “Thanks, ma.” She sai
