"Why are you doing this Kacey?" I asked her before she could leave the office. She stopped at her track and then turn around to face me. "Because he's mine." She replied. "No, he's not. You lost him when you cheated." I said to her and she simply smirked at me. She then started walking back toward me, I was intimidated but I stood my ground. "I would never let anyone take away what's mine. Yeah. I cheated on him but that doesn't mean that I would let go of someone who can give me everything that I wanted in life." She replied. "Money, power, and everything that goes with being privileged." She said then turned her back on me and left me, alone in Gavin's office. So that's all that Gavin is to her. Someone that could pull her up the food chain. I felt angry, infuriated, but then guilt and worry washed over me. Can I judge her for lying to him, when I also lied? Am I even worthy of his love or his forgiveness? He's been through a lot and I added more to that. My knees buckled and

He lifted me and placed me on top of his desk as my bags slipped from my grasp. I felt him searching with his hands behind me as our steamy kiss continued. He then found what he was looking for and after a few seconds, the lights inside the office turned off and his curtains automatically closed.I then felt his hands on my legs, he hooked my legs on his waist and easily lifted me off of his desk, and carried me back to the couch. He sat down positioning me on his lap as he held my face in place while deepening our kiss even more.I pulled away after a couple of minutes and gasped for air as his kisses started going down my neck. I couldn't help but moan in pleasure as he started licking and slight sucking and nipping at my neck. I felt him smile every time a moan left my mouth."Gav." I manage to say breathlessly as his hands started untucking my shirt from my skirt. His hands then went under my shirt, unclasping my bra, giving himself better access to everything I have upfront as I

"Where are you?" I asked Charlie immediately as I got up from the table. "St. Agnes General. I'm sorry Zoe. I'm really sorry." Charlie answered as he sobbed in the other line. "Stop crying, Charlie. Pull yourself together. Stay with Zab and listen to her doctor, okay? Wait for me there." I said to him, I heard him mumble a yes and then I ended the call with tears forming in my eyes. "What is it, love?" Gavin asked as he held my arm, stopping me from leaving the table. "Zab's in the hospital. She's been in an accident." I answered him before turning to the startled couple in front of us. "I'm really sorry about this, but I really need to o." "We're coming with you." Ruby said standing up from her seat and grabbing her bag. "What are you boys waiting for? Let's go." She said snapping the two out of their shock. All four of us then hurried out of the apartment and into our cars and before I knew it we were already speeding off to the hospital that Charlie said. "Why won't they pick

"Good news first." I answered them, as I finally had my voice back after the chaotic encounter with the Landers. "We have found the person who rammed their car through Zab's car." Officer Philips answered me and all of our focus turned to him. "So what's the bad news?" Zab asked him. "We still haven't arrested her." Officer Richards said that confused us a bit. "What do you mean you haven't arrested her?" Charlie asked and it felt like he was about to pounce on the officers any moment. "As of now, all we know is that the driver of the car is female." Officer Philips began. "We tracked the car using the plate number that was captured by the CCTV at the intersection and it lead us to a car rental company." "We check it ourselves and the car was rented under Karen Hicks. She even showed an ID and the receptionist jotted down the ID number but it was fake." Officer Richards explained. "The car also returned with no damage at all. The suspect had gotten the car fixed before returning

"Is everything ready?" My mom asked as our housekeepers ran around the house making sure that everything is in order for our family dinner with Grayson and Ruby."Yes, ma'am. Everything is in order." said Nana Rosa as she finished setting up the dinner table."Good. When are they coming, Zoe?" She suddenly turned her attention to me and I can't help but laugh at her eagerness."Grayson said that they are on their way twenty minutes ago." And as I finished talking the sound of the intercom from the gate rang through the house."They're here!" Mom exclaimed as she ran upstairs, probably to get my father. I walked to the front door and looked through the camera and I was right, it was Grayson and Ruby, so I buzzed them in immediately as Gavin and Charlie opened the front door.As soon as I stepped out of the door, I immediately saw a familiar car driving into our driveway. They parked at the end of the driveway and walked to the front door, with Grayson holding a paper bag that looks lik
