Cousin
The next morning came and I heard a faint voice from my door. "Sapphire..." Auntie knocked. The door opened and her head peeked inside. I burried my face on the pillow so she wouldn't see my bloodshot eyes. I don't know how much I cried last night, but everything is just hard to accept.
I rubbed my eyes and looked at the ceiling. I think I prefer the hardwood I had in Georgebury than the marble one in front of me. Auntie fully went inside my room. She's already dressed up – grey tube top with a pairing skirt and ankle strapped heels. The jewelry on her wrist and neck screamed wealth.
Midnight Adventures"Maybe she's going through something, Auntie." I quietly said.There is a reason why people act the way they do. We just misunderstand them sometimes. As I always say, there's always good in people. The only exception is the reason for committing murder. Up until now, I don't understand why Papa died.Who killed him? Why did they do that?These questions keep me up late at night. Just like in an orbit, they revolve around my brain in a never-ending cycle. And I badly want it to stop. All I know is that Papa is a good man, even though I didn't full
Change"Should I call her?" I asked Aspyn. She shook her head and rolled her eyes. "She won't let you go at night without bodyguards." She said and looked around.I nodded. Aspyn's not hot-headed today, I should just go with it I guess?"Hop in," Hayden said as we walked towards an SUV in the parking lot. I nervously went to the backseat where Aspyn and Cheryl sat too. Jared was holding a bag with the liquor bottle in the front seat."What score did you guys get in the enlit as
Dolce and GabbanaI was eating breakfast when Auntie suddenly appeared."Good to hear that you finally went outside! Do you want to go somewhere else? Aspyn said you guys went around Manhattan. New York is big, dear. There are many places you haven't went to yet," She said. She was wearing a black dress and white pumps, looking fashionable as ever."Okay. I think I'd like to go around." I suddenly thought about Dom. Is he in New York? Of course he is. Goodness! This city is big, so I don't think I'll be able to see him. I'm not ready to see him again, not after everything that I've disc
RumorsAfter a month, I got used to the city life. Aspyn's friends would come to the penthouse often and we'd hang out. Aspyn would sometimes bring me when they go out. I help her in her literature homework too. Though, I am still considering Auntie's offer in sending me to NYU.As an alternative, I started home-schooling. My tutor would go here in the penthouse and I'd busy myself with learning. I realized that the amount of knowledge there is in the world has no limit. I also found my despise of numbers through algebra.Along with that, Brent and I got closer too. He often calls
Arranged Marriage"D-dom will be there? I mean, Travis?" I asked. My heart hammered erratically at the mention of his name."Yes! The party is hosted by the Florences and they're very close. I heard he's been active lately." Brent giggled. "I mean, active in business parties like this, you know, since he was gone for months. I can tell that he didn't like what happened after the divorce." He finished my hair, now he's onto my makeup."What happened after the divorce?" I curiously asked.
Hand"He's setting you up with that guy? How could she?!" Aspyn exclaimed. She heard the news and immediately went home the next day. She usually stays in her condo during weekdays, but today's different.I didn't see Auntie this morning. I still can't believe she arranged me to a marriage like that. I'm not mad, but disappointed. I appreciate her for taking me in, but what she did is out of line. Brent even called last night, complaining that I didn't tell him anything. I explained to him that I didn't even know I was being arranged to Mat. Apparently, the Beaumonts made an unofficial announcement.

Mr. and Mrs. SalvatoreMy mouth lost its ability to function. My brain went haywire and my heart almost pumped into non-existence.Did I just hear my aunt correctly?"W-what?" I asked her. It's like she spoke a different language to me and my ears can't decipher it."You have to marry Travis. It's against my will, but you have to do it. It's the only way. He offered to merge with our company and we'll benefit even more." She looked at me pleadingly. "I also learned that Travis
