"Hey have you been crying or something? Your eyes are all puffed up sis." Jack said at the airport when he came to bring Monica home after observing that her facial expression isn't as lively as it should be."Nothing okay? I am fine, I think something entered my eyes" Monica liedJack being an observer knew something was wrong but he didn't pursue the issue at that moment."Okay come on let's go home, its freezing out here that's why I brought you the jacket.""You are so thoughtful bro come on"So they entered into the car and the driver drove off.On their way Monica was extremely quiet.'I know that jerk must have done something to her because I don't buy the storyline, I mean Monica was so happy she'll be getting engaged to him and the next minute they call off the engagement because she isn't ready? Something is going on and I am going to find out what it is' Jack thought."We are here" The driver saidAnd they both came down and walked into their house.Cecilia was already wait

"No I have some business with him" Eric said"Who may I ask is looking for him?" Wang asked"Tell him Evelyn's boyfriend" Eric answered"Okay give me a minute" Wang said and went in to let Lee know that his sworn enemy is waiting for him in his very own dojo.But Eric followed him as soon as Wang opened the door he entered"I told you to wait outside" Wang said"Leave us" Lee commanded and Wang was a little bit hesitant to leave because Lee's temperament isn't one to trifle with."Are you sure?" Wang asked and Lee noddedThen Wang left and closed the door behind him."Who are you and why are you here at my dojo?"Lee asked feigning ignorance."I am Eric Aragon, Evelyn's boyfriend. And I would like to know where she is.""Oh Eric Aragon, the bastard who broke my friend's heart" Lee said in anger"It's just a misunderstanding I really need to know where she is" "A misunderstanding huh? So tell me was your engagement with the Smith's daughter also a misunderstanding? It was on the headl
'That suits you Ivy, you could have just stayed silent and enjoyed the wealth, why come out and expose yourself, suddenly you feel like a saint? When people betray me I make them pay.' Wendy thoughtEdmund who has not been at home and had went to visit his grandchildren and family came back home tonight only to be met with such news, he approached his wife in the room and asked..."Did you by chance have anything to do with this?""With what honey?" Wendy asked feigning innocence"The death of Ivy Mills" Edmund said"No way honey, why would I end the entire generation of those people?" Wendy asked feigning ignorance"I hope for your sake you didn't, because we promised never to murder anyone anymore. We have grandchildren now, so no need to be rash. And besides, what were you busy with back in Ohio that you adamantly chose not to come with me to say hello to your grandkids?" Edmund asked"I had to stay back, been busy keeping an eye on our son and I also had to hire a maid" Wendy said
ONE YEAR LATEREvelyn got to the airport, and dialed her best friend's number.It rang twice before it got connected so she said pouting"We are here at the airport Lee, where are you?" "I am two minutes away, just relax" Lee said"You should have been here by now" Evelyn said"I am sorry for not keeping to time your Majesty" Lee said and she chuckled She and Wade walked hand in hand outside and saw Lee, Zach and some bodyguards waiting.As soon as Evelyn saw Lee, she hugged him, "I miss you my cute and adorable knight" she said"I miss you more, you sure have grown. I mean you look even more chubbier..." Lee said admiring her, and Evelyn blushed"Come on guys, Let's go.." Wade said breaking off their little reunion. They all entered into their various cars and they sped off."Why didn't you bother to come visit in Columbia are they still tailing you?" Evelyn asked"You have no idea" Lee said"Haha, that's the most funny thing ever, well I am back and that's all that matters" Evel
At the restaurant Evelyn sat down waiting for her friend.The waiter came and asked politely, "What would you like to order ma'am?""Oh just get me a cup of coffee while I wait for my friend""Okay coming right up"After some minutes it came and she smiled and took a sip. It hit the spot perfectly.Britney came to the restaurant 15 minutes late but the joy of seeing her friend after a longtime covered her tardiness. She stood up and they both hugged each other like two rabbits wrestling.They then sat down and began discussing"Do you still work with Mrs Anders?" Evelyn asked"Nope, my man told me not to work anymore" Britney said"Wow!! That's so cool" Evelyn said"Thank you dear, speaking of men, how is your Eric?" Britney asked"Let's not talk about him" Evelyn said"What did he do? He came looking for you at the restaurant by asking me your whereabouts. So I gave him Lee's contact and address because I didn't even know where you are. I thought since he didn't come back he must ha
The day finally came for Evelyn Mills to take over the company.So she walked graciously into Aragon's holdings and called for a board meeting, after all, the company is in her name now. The highest shares is hers, so she can summon for an emergency board meeting anytime, anywhere.She sat down confidently in the seat as the CEO of the company, some of the board members were not in support of the change in ownership of the company.Some came late, because they don't acknowledge her as anything.So after an hour, the seats in the conference room was filled up except one.Evelyn stood up gracefully, her hair let loose she was wearing a red corporate suit and matching pants and a black ankle high heeled shoes. She said"I am Evelyn Mills, the owner of this corporation and I will not stand being disrespected by your lousiness. I called for a meeting an hour ago, and it took another hour for you all to assemble?""Miss Evelyn, you have no right to call us just because you are the new own
"Evelyn just say the word, what can I do to have you back to myself? I can't do anything without you, I waited and searched for you but couldn't find you.""..." The silence from Evelyn, the way she showed no emotions made Eric sad and heartbroken. He hates it when she gives him silent treatment always have.As soon as she got off the Elevator her guards arrived and escorted her to her car, opened her door and she entered without sparing him a glance.Eric left the company dejected, though his guards keep tailing him from behind but they dare not make themselves known.Evelyn got to the hotel first and entered into her room'What is he trying to do? After abandoning me to myself to die he is sorry? Was he expecting me to run into his arms after what he did? He must be crazy to think that' Evelyn thought and went into the bathroom to wash up.Eric came hours later with a big bouquet of her favourite rose and dropped it in front of her door, and slipped a note into her room as he alway
