"Make sure you don't allow her anywhere near my room," Brindle exclaimed with anger, instructing the guards before storming off. "How dare she, I am going to kill her with my own two hands," she muttered to herself. Entering her room, she went and packed all her face and body creams in a locker and locked them up. "Let's see how she gets hold of them again," she said. "Mother, I'm sorry for not coming home early to hear you out. What was so important, you didn't wait for me to close from work before telling me," Richard said as he sat beside his mother's bed. "Don't worry, you will soon have your last surgery when the doctor comes back from his trip. I promise you everything is going to be alright. Just hang in there," he added, resting his head on his mother's shoulder. "Mrs. Kiara's eyes opened, a tear trickled down her cheek. How do I tell you that you have been lied all this while? that baby was never yours, How can I tell you that having a good heart doesn't get you loved but
"Be careful with that. Let it be at the lower left of the table. Yeah, a little to the right. Okay, perfect," Brindle instructed the bakers as they brought Richard's massive all-white 4-layer cake. "Yes, I want everything to be ready in an hour before the guests start coming." She went around inspecting everything, making sure everything was in order. The tables were adorned with towering centerpieces of white roses and orchids, accompanied by dimly lit candles that created a magical atmosphere. With a smile, she lifted her eyes to see how the place looked. "A touch of my own magic," she said with a smile. The decorations were absolutely breathtaking—a symbol of whites and creams with cascading white drapes, plush white furnishings, and glistening crystal accents. The theme gave off a rich man's vibe; it was an all-white party. "Let me go get ready," she said before hurrying upstairs. About an hour later... The guests started arriving at the mansion, each driving the latest cars
"We've been looking everywhere for you until you made that elegant arrival," Nina, one of Brindle's friends, said. "I saw how everyone's attention was on you," she gleefully exclaimed "The cameras shifted to you as they took pictures." "Yes, everything was carefully planned, exactly how I pictured it," Brindle said with a grin. "Oh my, this dress is stunning. Can you give it to me after the program?" Erica asked. "Sure, darling. I am not even planning on wearing it again," Brindle replied. "I will be back. You guys should feel at home," Brindle said and walked away. Just as she was about to join the crowd, she felt a grip on her arm and was forcefully pulled into a nearby room. "What is wrong with you, Marko? You dare show your face after what you did," she said as she pulled away from him. Marko stood at the door. "You are not going anywhere. I won't let you," he said. "I don't like how Richard looked at you out there. You are mine and only mine," Marko said, fuming with jealou
"Why did you lock me in that room?" Aunty Soso Lolo lashed out as soon as she stormed into Brindle's room , finding her seated in front of the mirror, combing her hair.Brindle turned to look at her and then resumed combing her hair.Aunty Soso Lolo noticed something on Brindle's hands, her eyes widening in surprise. "How did you get that?" she asked, moving closer and grabbing Brindle's hands to get a better look.Brindle quickly pulled her hands away. "You mean this?" she said proudly, kissing her ring. "I'm a fiancée now," she boasted. "F-i-a-n-c-é," she spelled it out, emphasizing the word, and then returned to combing her hair."You mean I missed all of that yesterday," her aunt said, looking shocked."Yep, the whole exciting moment Brindle said as she remained silent and continued with her hair."From now on, I don't want to see all of you crowded in one place and doing nothing. The rules in this house are going to change. Anyone I catch idling will either lose their job or the
She stood there with heavy eyes, gazing at the spot where Liam had just passed. Travelers hurried by, people moving from security, and a slight bump from someone sent her straight to the floor, her gaze still fixed on the exit. Tears streamed down her face. Bystanders looked at her, gossiping among themselves. As they gossiped within earshot, "Why is that young woman on the floor, looking as though her world just shattered?" a woman with an oval head and loose short jeans asked, her voice filled with curiosity, glowered in disgust at Natalie while asking aloud "Her world has indeed shattered, my friend. I saw her trying to pass through the boarding gates, calling out someone's name with cries, but she was stopped by the security men immediately," another person with a small head and big body chimed in. "The man might have left her behind, telling lies that they were traveling together," she added. "Hahaha, this technique used by these men has been around forever. They lure you into
Natalie sat there, still confused and disturbed. She quickly picked up her phone and dialed Liam's number again, hoping he would pick up. She called repeatedly, but his phone was still off."Are you pranking me or something?" she asked, a mix of laughter and tears in her voice. She continued tapping on her phone, desperately hoping he would answer."Pick up the phone," she implored through clenched teeth and wiped her nose with shaking hands while continuing to call him relentlessly."It's okay, you've won. Please come back," she pleaded as she stood up from her seat, scanning her surroundings for any sign of him.She sat back down on the seat again, feeling defeated. "Without a word, she hastily removed her SIM card from her phone as she sent her frustration to it. She threw the SIM card on the floor and stepped on it angrily. 'How could you do this to me?' she said, weeping as she continued to step on the SIM card."…."What do you mean you booked the wrong flights? I specifically as
"It's been a long time, Karl. I haven't seen you in ages," Richard said as he walked into his mansion with her. (Karl is both Brindle and Richard's friend.) "I know, Richard. I left after your dad's funeral. I've been a bad friend," she smiled and admitted. "Welcome to my humble abode," he said. "Thank you so much," Karl said as she scanned through the house. "Wow, you've really made it," she added, sitting down on a chair. "I'm really sorry I couldn't help when your dad lost everything and you guys were thrown out on the street," Karl said remorsefully. "You don't have to worry. It's all in the past. Look at us now," Richard replied. Karl nodded and smiled at him. "How was your experience when you went to Mexico, Richard?" "Mexico?" Karl asked, looking confused. "Yes, Brindle told me you were in Mexico some time back..." "Was I?" Karl said, still looking confused about what he was saying. Brindle spotted them from the stairs. As soon as she emerged from her room, her heart
Liam sat quietly on the floor, taking slow breaths. Without a word, he stood up abruptly and made his way hastily to the exit door. "Where are you going, Liam, my boy? Talk to Grandma," Grandma Leta said as she followed him out. "Grandma, Anuskha, and Aditi will be here in the next 6 hours. Where are you going?" she shouted out. Liam paid no attention to her, heading straight to his carriage and driving speedily away. Arriving at the airport, he paced briskly around. "Victoria will be here in the next few hours," he muttered, continuing to move around breathlessly. After what felt like 24 hours, the announcement of the landed flight was made. Liam stood up from his seat, in high spirits, and walked to a flower shop, buying a bunch of roses. "I hope you forgive me for leaving you behind," he muttered as he smelled the roses. Without waiting much longer, he rushed to the arrival area to join the people who were waiting for their loved ones. After standing there for some time with
