Hello dears!
Embarking on the field of novel writing is both challenging and exciting. Challenging as there were times I faced writer’s block, unable to think of what to write or how to proceed with writing. Sometimes spending hours and only putting up a few hundreds of words. Writers like me would agree to that.
I have also read countless articles about surgeon’s when my main characters were surgeons. Now, my main female lead is a lawyer. I have to read about court proceedings and anything related to lawyers' work.
And I couldn’t count how many novels I have read so as to glean some inspiration from them.
Such a challenging task but equally exciting.
However challenging it was to write a novel, I enjoy it especially with all the good feedback coming from you. Your support gives me impetus to keep on writing.Thank you for supporting your dear writer.
Once again, I’m asking for your support for this novel. Giving me gems, giving reviews and five stars will help me promote my work.
Thank you very much.
Love yah all
xoxo Phoebe Heather

The time he noticed Dexter’s sly smile while asking about Kirsten, Matthew had prepared himself mentally to act nonchalantly if he mentioned Vanessa. “Yeah, I also heard that Gray Industries was moved to Rotoni,” Matthew nodded with a smile and added immediately, not giving Dexter a time to respond. “And by the way, did you hear that Rex Howell is welcoming a baby with his new wife?” Dexter was almost choked to death by Matthew’s deliberate move. Rex Howell was his ex - wife's husband. She had been having an affair with Rex while married to Dexter. In their three years of marriage, his former wife had never gotten pregnant. Rumor said that Dexter was infertile hence the extra marital affair. “Kirsten, Matthew?” Donna came just in time, hindering Dexter from retaliating. He quickly moved away as though he was running away from something. Kirsten turned, her eyes twinkle in admiration. “You are absolutely stunning, Donna.” “I’m honored to be called stunning by the campus belle a
All eyes zeroed in at Kirsten. It gave her the feeling of being caught with her hand in the cookie jar. “Kirsten, are you pregnant?” Donna was the fastest one to recover from the stupor. “No!” Kirsten denied vehemently, shaking her head. “She isn’t well, please excuse us.” Taking off his suit jacket, Matthew carefully draped it around Kirsten's delicate frame and walked her out of the hall. And before they could reach the door, Matthew carried Kirsten in his arms like a princess for all to see. In this way, Matthew was silently declaring that Kirsten was someone they could not lay a finger on. Envy permeated every fiber of Monalisa’s being. Matthew’s undeniable affection towards Kirsten made her doubt if the man had ever loved her for all those years they were together. In terms of material things Matthew gave her everything. Nevertheless, he never had that tenderness in his eyes whenever he looked at her. But when he was looking at Kirsten as though all his tenderness was bestowe
Vanessa’s bright eyes dimmed the moment her eyes locked with Matthew’s indifferent gaze. He did not give her a satisfactory reason as to why he was ending their decade - long relationship, entirely severing any connection with her. She asked if he had already found a woman to replace her but he said that his feelings for her no longer exist. Deducing that because they were miles apart that Matthew’s love for her grew cold, Vanessa decided to come back despite knowing that Norman would do something to crush her family’s company back in Rotoni. She couldn’t care less, she just wanted to be with Matthew. Standing beside Matthew was Steven, he had been working with Matthew ever since he bought one of Roosevelt's partly owned subsidiaries. He knew Vanessa and Matthew had broken up a long time ago but he had no idea that Matthew didn’t really break up with her while he was with Monalisa and even after he got married to Kirsten. Puzzled to see the woman again after so many years, Steven
Tensed, every single muscle in his body went as tight as a coiled spring. Reluctantly, Matthew turned his head to meet her watchful gaze. Upon realizing that he was still on a call, he abruptly ended the call. “My mom, I don’t want her to come looking for you.” Matthew said with a solemn tone. “I see.” It warmed Kirsten's heart that Matthew always protected her against people who wanted to hurt her. “Come here.” He hooked his forefinger. Hurriedly Kirsten without hesitation came to his side. Once she was near him, Kirsten found herself in the comfort of his embrace. “Always remember this and no matter what happens, you are the love of my life.” Like a bird flapping its wings, Kirsten's heart fluttered in euphoria. “I misjudged you during our first meeting. I thought you had a stone cold heart.” “You made the right assessment. But you warmed my heart,” Matthew said with a hoarse voice. Kirsten’s stomach growled as Matthew dipped his head for a kiss, stopping him. Kirst
At the beginning, Matthew was unfazed when Knox put the blame on him. However, Knox’s last sentence ruffled Matthew’s feathers. Just the thought of Kirsten being in another man’s arms made him mad. And yet, he could not vent his anger as Knox was Kirsten’s beloved brother. “Shut up! You don’t know what you're saying!” Kirsten said pointedly. Knox looked at Kirsten with an aggrieved expression. Kirsten never used such a harsh tone to him and never once got angry at him even when he acted like a spoiled child to her. Because of this, he started to dislike Matthew. “I was never scolded by you but because of your husband you scolded me. You have changed Kirsten.” Knox wanted Kirsten to realize that the untoward incident today was because of Matthew. “James would never let this thing happen to mom if he’s your husband.” Matthew was secretly pleased that Kirsten chose to stand for him even when it would hurt her brother. Kirsten closed her eyes and rubbed her temple, trying hard not to
Matthew opened the car door and said, “Get in the car!” Overjoyed that she wasn’t ignored by Matthew, Vanessa hurriedly entered the car. “Drive!” Matthew barked. “Where to sir?” Tony asked in confusion. They were supposed to pick the missus in the hospital. Did his boss plan to introduce his ex - girlfriend to his wife? He had not seen Vanessa all these years and her sudden appearance confused him. “Just drive and don’t stop until I say so.” Matthew barked, Vanessa who was brimming with happiness felt the chill crept in her heart.Matthew lifted the privacy partition but did not turn it into opaque as he didn’t want Tony to have a wrong idea. “How many times, I told you not to waste your time on me? There’s no more hope for us, no matter what you do. This is my last warning to you, Vanessa. I will completely make your family lose everything. And you have to say goodbye to the life you are enjoying.” “Are there really no chances for us to get back together?” Vanessa asked softly.
In the middle of the dinner, Kirsten caught sight of Vanessa from afar. Having noticed that Kirsten was looking elsewhere, Matthew asked with a frown. “Who are you looking at?” “The woman I met this afternoon. She told me that her boyfriend, in order to protect her, got engaged to a woman his family had chosen for him.” A noticeable repulsion flashed in her eyes which was not lost on him. Realizing the similarity of the story to his, Matthew turned his head and looked at the direction Kirsten was looking at and saw Vanessa. “Call of nature,” Matthew said while he stood. In a haste he headed to the restroom and called the bodyguards following them discreetly and barked an instruction. Seeing that Vanessa was in panic when intercepted by two men in black suits, Kirsten went over to check what was happening. “I don’t know you, why would I come with you!” Vanessa answered sharply, trying to push her way out of the men but they held her arms. “Hey, what are you doing to her?” Kirsten
Lucille nodded her head, took back the check and left without a back glance. Gillian sighed and went to pay, after which she hailed a cab to their new apartment. Inferring that the environment and surroundings of their previous apartment wasn’t safe, Matthew managed to persuade Gillian to move into this new and luxury apartment that was near Knox’s school. It was a six bedroom apartment, equipped with a huge living room and kitchen hence, Kirsten urged Klaire and her husband, Wilson to move in with Gillian and Knox. Again under Matthew’s persuasion the couple moved in with Gillian. And then he gave Klaire and Wilson a job in one of his company subsidiaries just one bus ride away from the apartment. One by one Gillian put away the items she bought in the supermarket. Just as she finished with her task, Knox arrived from school. Knox was startled when Gillian hugged him tightly and kissed his cheeks. The last time Gillian hugged and kissed him like this was before the surgery. “W
