Katie kicked off her riding boots angrily, strands of hair stuck to her sweaty face. "Who the hell does he think he is?" she muttered angrily to herself.She had been Working all day and night, nonstop, trying to collect all evidence she could concerning Wyatt’s case. The wedding was just by the corner and they needed to arrest Wyatt then. She was thankful her sister asn't at home. Her sister was a perfectionist and liked everything spick and span or she could have given her the scolding of her life. “No dirt!” As her sister would yell Her mother always rebuked her for taking lessons at the Polo club, she preferred Katie to engage in classical music like other girls her age.Even though that was a long time ago, every now and then, her mother would try to convince her to try it out.As a child, Katie had to learn to fend for herself and her family at a young age, she knew she was cut out to live a harsh life and she didn’t mind it. Katie laughed scornfully, she couldn't

She got dressed in a yellow floral print dress. As much as she wanted to let her hair flow, she couldn't, at least not yet because she was scared of how she acted when she got irritated. Becoming a mother wasn’t easy for her. She wore black strappy heels and applied minimal make-up. She had not seen Ethan’s ace in months. She wasn't sure how to react or talk to him.Ruby was fast asleep while her mother was working on some packages she wanted to deliver. She had lied to them that she was going out for drinks with a couple of drinks. They didn’t believe her at first but after much persuasion, they decided to allow her to go out because all she had done was sit at home and cry herself to sleep. Ruby had been the most supportive person ever as she had always been. She had offered to spend the weekends at her house while helping to prepare her food and giving her massages. Her mother always joked that Ruby was playing the role of the baby’s father while Cassie played the role

Ruby stood in the room, her head bowed, once again she was under Mr Wyatt’s fire. She didn’t like the smell of the hospital but she had to endure the stinging smell of the antiseptic.A kind nurse had helped clean her injuries and placed a bandaid on it.Mrs Wyatt was fuming, a deep scowl etched in her face. Every other member of the family surrounded Taylor, doting on her and making sure she was okay including Mark. Mark has told Ruby to let him take care of the issue. He knew that Mr Wyatt had a bad temper. "How dare you hurt my child?" Mrs Wyatt raged. "I am going to press charges"Ruby remained quiet until she had received enough lashing out from Mrs Wyatt. She didn’t care that the family was taking turns to insult her. All that mattered was that Taylor was doing alright and she hadn’t sustained serious injuries. "We should be thankful she only sprained her ankle" the doctor whose name she later learnt was Crawford said. Taylor had woken up, she woke up with her d

Wyatt and Taylor were seated in the lobby, they arranged it a little bit and furnished it. It was a wonderful day for Taylor as she had learnt Ruby left the house. It was a dream come true. Mark didn’t bother bringing up the CCTV footage, he decided to keep it to himself. Also, she was able to buy the clip of Nate yelling at her, telling her that he doesn’t love her.The wedding bells were ringing, it was only four days til her wedding.Everything was perfect, it was the dream she had always wanted to live ever since she was a little girl. "This is good news and it calls for celebration," her father announced, pouring them wine into cups.Most people were surprised that Wyatt had dealt with Ruby just yet, he decided to save it for later, after he had won the election. He was now walking on slippery grounds and if he made any mistake, he was going to be pulled out from the elections permanently.He couldn’t deny how happy he was too. His men had promised to find Roberta, the repo

Nate gripped the steering until his knuckles were white. He had noticed that it was on days he had an emergency, there seemed to be traffic, how typical. He didn’t need to think further that Taylor had told one of her lies. He sighed as he dialed Maria’s number for the umpteenth time. Ruby wasn’t answering calls. He sighed again as he overtook a vehicle, not minding that the driver was yelling at him. It wasn’t the first time he had let her down, he imagined how lonely she had felt. The part that upset him the most was that Mark whom he disliked was there for her. She was there for him during his father’s remembrance and stood by him throughout. He wasn’t the type to cry but he felt tears sting his eyes. He wiped them immediately as he tried to focus on the road. Ruby deserved better, someone who was going to be there for her always. “Maria?” He yelled when Maria finally answered the phone “Nate” Maria replied softly, she could tell from the sound of the honk that he was dr
