FOES TO FLAMES Chapter 16- Sibling Rivalry
In the days following Olivia's heated argument with Isabella, her personal life was far from tranquil. She had a boyfriend, Michael, who had a knack for involving himself in her family affairs, especially when it came to the company.One evening, as they sat in a dimly lit restaurant, Michael leaned in, a calculating look in his eyes. "Olivia, we need to talk about your sister and the company. The longer you wait, the harder it will be to assert your rights."Olivia, sipping her wine, regarded him with a hint of weariness. "Michael, not now. We've been through this before. It's not the right time to challenge Isabella."Michael's voice grew insistent. "Olivia, I've been patient, but you can't keep putting this off. We need a plan. We need to start securing the company's future for us."Olivia set her glass down, her tone firm. "Michael, I love you, but this is my family's business. I won't be pressured into making hasty decisions. I'll deal with Isabella when the time is right."Micha

He entered, a bit apprehensive about what this meeting might entail.Isabella, her expression notably softer, began the conversation. "Ethan, I've been closely following your work, and I'm impressed with your dedication and results."Ethan, pleasantly surprised by her praise, replied, "Thank you, Isabella. I'm here to contribute as best I can."Isabella leaned back in her chair, considering her words carefully. "I've been thinking, and I believe you have the potential to be even more valuable to this company. I'd like to offer you a new role."Ethan was intrigued, "A new role? What do you have in mind?"Isab
FOES TO FLAMES CHAPTER 1- Unexpected Arrangements
"Goodbye, Mom. I need to go now, and I'm running late; our customers will be waiting," Davina said, planting a kiss on her mother's cheek. She had been working as a food delivery rider for the past year, and today was no different. The sun was setting, and the streetlights began to flicker to life."Don't come back late, Davina," Mrs Wilson replied, her voice filled with concern as she watched her daughter mount her bicycle.Davina pedaled away, the warm breeze ruffling her hair as she navigated the busy city streets. She loved these moments of solitude, just her and the rhythmic hum of the tires on the road. The world felt simpler on two wheels.As she approached her next delivery destination, her phone buzzed with an incoming order. It was a large order from one of their regular customers. Davina's heart raced with excitement; these big orders meant better tips.She parked her bike in front of the customer's lavish mansion and rang the doorbell. Moments later, a well-dressed man ans

"Mom, how do you expect me to marry someone that I don't even know?" Davina asked, her frustration clear in her voice. Her mother, however, smiled."Yes, how can I marry someone like him? He doesn't even look like my dream man," she chimed in, glaring at Xavier. He shot a retort back at her."I can't marry you either. You don't meet my standards, and your dream man is a farmer," he said, and his mom smacked his head."Stop saying nonsense, Xavier. You are both getting married next week, and that's final," His mom asserted."Yeah, that's true. Davina, you need to prepare for your marriage. I'm so excited that my only child is getting married soon," Davina's mother added."I can't be forced to marry this grumpy fellow," Davina muttered under her breath, but her mother heard."I'm very sorry for my daughter's bad attitude," Davina's mother apologized to Xavier's mother, who nodded understandingly. Xavier's mom smiled at her."I'm sorry, Kayla, but we need to go now," Xavier's mom said."

******TERMAINE CLOTHING STORE******"Grumpy man," Davina muttered, stepping out of the car. Xavier spotted paparazzi approaching them, and he immediately pulled her into a hug."Behave like a sensible lady; the paparazzi is here, and we need to pretend to be a cute couple. If you fail, I'll deal with you later," Xavier whispered to her, and she smirked."I won't do it, and you can't do anything to me because your mother will defend me. But I'll do it on one condition," she whispered back."What's the condition?" Xavier inquired."Beg me," Davina said with a mischievous smile."I'm not supposed to beg you, but because I value my reputation, I'll do it. Davina, please, do this for me," Xavier requested, and she chuckled."That's just what I needed," she replied, taking his hand. The paparazzi started bombarding them with questions, but with the assistance of Xavier's security team, they managed to escape their relentless pursuit.Inside the clothing shop, the manager approached them."W
FOES TO FLAMES Chapter 4-Marriage Challenges Ahead
Caught off guard, Xavier appeared nervous, scratching his head as Davina mockingly teased him."Wow, look who's here, stealing in the middle of the night," she quipped, her laughter filling the room.Xavier began to explain himself, but Davina interrupted, proposing a playful condition. "You can have the spaghetti," she said, "but you'll sleep on the mat for a week, and I'll take the bed. Agreed?"Xavier, begrudgingly accepting the terms, replied with a grumpy agreement. Satisfied with her impromptu negotiation, Davina enjoyed her glass of water and returned to the room, leaving Xavier to his "stolen" spaghetti.******NEXT MORNING******Xavier found himself summoned to the sitting room along with Davina by his mother. He couldn't believe his ears when she announced that their wedding date had been moved up to the following day. His reservations about marrying Davina, whom he considered bossy, were eclipsed by the shock of such a sudden change."But that's not possible," Davina stammer
FOES TO FLAMES Chapter 5- Clashing Emotions
The wedding had come to a close, and Davina changed into more comfortable attire, ready to unwind after the long day. A maid arrived and delivered the news that she and Xavier were needed in the living room. Davina followed the maid, finding Xavier, her newlywed husband, and their mothers waiting for them.Xavier's mother spoke with a serious tone, "We called you both here to inform you that we are traveling to England, and we want you two to live together in peace and harmony." Davina's mother nodded in agreement.Curious, Davina asked, "When are you leaving, and when will you be back?""We are leaving tomorrow, and we don't know when we'll be back, but it won't be long," her mother replied."While we're gone, we don't want any disagreements. We intentionally decided to leave to give you space to get used to each other," Xavier's mother added.Davina's mother chimed in, "Goodnight," and they both left the room, leaving Davina and Xavier alone.With the mothers gone, Xavier addressed
FOES TO FLAMES Chapter 6- Uninvited Confrontations
Xavier's patience was wearing thin as he tried to mediate the situation. He could sense the tension in the room and realized that this encounter was spiraling out of control. But instead of diffusing it, he decided to take a different approach.With a mischievous glint in his eye, Xavier turned to Mel and said, "You know, Mel, I always thought your taste in paint colors was a bit... unconventional." He gestured to the vividly painted walls in the living room. "But I have to say, compared to this argument about colors, your surprise visit wins the award for the most unexpected shade."Mel flushed with embarrassment, her face turning as red as one of the walls she was arguing about. It was clear that Xavier was taking a jab at her, and she felt humiliated.Davina, always one to enjoy a good laugh, couldn't contain her amusement and burst into laughter. This only fueled Mel's anger further. She clenched her fists, vowing to get back at both Xavier and Davina for this embarrassment.As Xa
