Megan's POV
"Ma'am, the ship will sail today. Mr Nelson will like to meet with you by five o'clock. You have a conference meeting at 2pm. The Donald Inc CEO sent a message that relays his wish to cooperate with us. The message also stated..." Ann, my secretary, went on and on and with the different schedules and information. She trailed behind me as we head to my office. She had been a diligent staff of mine and I appreciated her efforts in the companies' growth.
A bodyguard opened the door to my office for me. I nodded in acknowledgement of this act to tell him "thanks". He got the message and bowed in return.
"Finally, the Spears family wants to have a meeting with you." She concluded and my eyebrows raised on its own accord.
"And what is the meeting about?" I asked.
"No further information, ma'am" she replied politely. I sighed as I tapped the desk with my fingers.
Whenever I face the Spears family,
Suzy's POV"This should look great on you." Tricia, my costume designer beamed."Okay" I simply answered.I watched her as she went through the dresses in the mobile closet she brought along. I swung my legs impatiently as she went on and on with her drama. We have been at this for more than an hour. I didn't have all the time in the world to waste but this is my career. I sighed helplessly at that thought.She looked indecisive. This had always been her problem. She most times doesn't act professional. She should be the one to decide what type of cloth I need to put on for any occasion. But I always end up doing her job for her. She has a problem with choosing a particular clothe for a particular occasion and I wonder why. She acts immaturely not professionally."Tricia" I called. She stopped her rambling and focused on me."Yes?" She answered."You've been doing this for more than an hour and you sti
Melanie's POVI let out an exasperated sigh as I dropped my backpack on the bed. I head to the bathroom to have my bath. I went into the bathtub after I had filled it with warm water.I shut my eyes immediately the warm water came in contact with my skin. The events of the day replayed in my mind.For all I care, I was unnecessarily angry throughout today. There wasn't any real reason for my anger nor was there any candid reason for my attitude today. And it all began this morning.I sighed as I went deep down under the water with my eyes closed. Few minutes later, I came up again. I breathed out heavily and then slowly to steady my breath. I brushed off the strands of hair that got stuck to my face."I should not get weighed down by this." I thought aloud. "No one deserves my sudden outburst. Not even Steve." I muttered to myself as I washed up."He's been understanding over the years as fri
Suzy's POVI sighed as I entered the limo that'd convey us back to the company. I crossed my hand over my forehead and I shut my eyes. I heard the car door close which informed me of George's entry into the car."And ensure she gets ready for the interview." Was what I heard George say. I knew he was talking to Kate.I didn't hear Kate's voice but I was sure she understood what George told her. I knew they were talking about me anyway. The company wanted me to attend the interview that was organized by one of the biggest broadcasting stations.It has always been what the company wants and not what I want. Sometimes, it becomes sickening. Most times, I don't get enough time to rest. I was either working on a new song or the presentation of an old one. If not that, I'd be getting lectures from the dance tutor for each of my new and old songs. And if not, I'd be controlled by the company to attend this and that occasion.&n
Melanie's POV"And for all I care, Suzy and Megan mom are in danger right now." She announced and I couldn't help the gasp that scaped through my mouth."Wh- wh- what do you mean?" I stuttered."We need to get mom back." She panicked."But she just left two days ago. How do we call her back when she's not even completed her assignments? I held onto my forehead."If she can't come back today, she should come back soon." Diasy said."This is frustrating." I sighed and Daisy turned her back to me."We need to get back to the kingdom as soon as we can. We should get the assurance that Sage isn't back." She announced."What about Steve and Suzy?" I stood up."How do we protect them?" I asked.Daisy sighed and walked up to me. She held my hands and stared deep into my eyes."Sis, I know how this had been for you. I understan
Suzy's POV"I should be on my way then." I announced as I move towards the door. I shouldn't have dismissed George."No!" She stopped me with a loud call. I turned to face her."Do you need something?" I squinted my eyes. I was tired from the day's work already."I think you need to know something." She said"And what's that?" I stood still and watched her walk up to me."You shouldn't stay close to Melanie." She blurted.A deep frown appeared on my face.What the hell is she saying?"And why if I may ask?""You'd get hurt if you always stay close to her." She told me."And what does that mean?" I scoffed.I understood every word she said but I wanted her to elaborate her reason."You might not know this but the war isn't over yet." She sighed.She looked like she was forced to say what
I turned to face Mrs Spears with a more serious look."You called for a meeting. What is that about?" I asked."Nothing much." She shrugged."And..." I urged her to continue."We want you to step down." She announced and she picked up her teacup to sip from it as if what she said wasn't a trivial issue."What do you mean?" I frowned."I mean we need you to step down. From the postion of being the CEO of Mike's companies." She clearly stated."Wait.. when did you make such decision?" Father questioned her."We can't continue to watch her run the companies. The administration of the Spears family is always done by the men." She answered.I wasn't surprised she said that. I knew being the female here isn't the issue. The issue is her dislike for me."But mom," I began. At the mentioned of the word "mom", I noticed her eyes flickered. But in
Megan's POV"You should stay in." I advised the Spears.A loud scream frightened me. I looked up and saw a maid run into the room.She came to us in fear."What's wrong, Lily?" Mrs Spears asked in fear.The "Lily" clutched unto Mrs Spears silk top. The girl was visibly shaking and she looked really scared from what she had seen."Lily?" Mrs Spears snapped at her. She shook her vigorously, inwardly pleading that the girl should regain her composure. I could see that."Ma'am, ma...'am" the lady stuttered.I strode over to Mrs Spears and I pulled the "Lily" girl towards me.I patted her cheeks both gently and firmly. I made her look into my eyes."Now, listen to me." I commanded. She stared into my eyes and I was almost thankful I can still compel."Lily, what's wrong?" I asked.The loud scr
Melanie's POV"Daisy! Daisy!" I yelled as I ran across to her room. I didn't even wait a second before I barged into the room. I saw her standing close to the window, probably staring at the scenery."Daisy." I called slowly but still with an urgent tone.She turned firmly with a grim look. I continued my walk towards her and she met me halfway when she sensed the urgency."What's wrong, sis?" She held my hands."Did you call Mom? What did she say?" She continued with her questions."Daisy, I think something is wrong over there."I tried to calm myself down but it was of no use cause I was damn nervous and scared.I released my hands from her grip and I fiddled with my fingers as I paced up and down her room."What happened?" She questioned as she trailed behind me, every corner of her room I head to."I was on the phone with her." I began to sp
