Edward and Anable had made their way to the front, she looked beautiful under the limelight. Everyone heard the voice from earlier, Arielle who was so deep into frustration gently raised her head with tears in her eyes. It's been a very long time she cried genuinely. Ever since she came back it has always been for show and making Claudia and her daughter look bad infront of others, but this was not the case. Her tears flowed without her control, she had been stained in blood and so were her lips. The dress which was beautiful from earlier had stains of blood all over it. He stood up trying so much not to lose her balance and fall off. She needed to find Leo within the crowd. The crowd patter way as Leonard Grey walked in, he was dressed in a black tux with an implacable design. Everyone knew that suit was not cheap, for those who did not know him, they could tell he was no ordinary man. Anable scoffed, he knew he had only worn a borrowed suit to impress others. She had not forgotten

Anabel did not join her parents in bidding the guest farewell, she stayed in her room pondering what next to do. The necklace given to Arielle is her mother's most precious jewelry, it is not just some remembrance but the gem within it is the key to open the vault. The vault is believed to have millions of dollars saved by Mrs. Laura for Arielle’s bridal gift and inheritance for her grandchildren if Areille has a child. The owner of the jewelry takes everything. She has always believed the jewelry to be missing but who would have thought the old man had it in his possession all this while? She is distracted from her thoughts by her mother who walks in and closes the door behind her. “‘Anabel, come eat something, you haven't had anything to eat all day”’ Claudia placed the food on the table. Anabel turns to her mother with so many tears in her eyes. “‘Why are you crying? Is it about the prenup? Don’t worry you will have everything and even if the Richards family won't let you access t

Arielle woke up in a room not familiar to her, everything was a blur, and she could barely piece out the happenings of the previous night. She carefully glanced over trying to recall what happened but not too much came. Her surrounding was not helping in her situation. The door opens and she pulls the duvet over her face. “‘Miss your food is ready, Mr. Grey has left for work and will return in no time. He asked me to see you are comfortable so if you need anything please let me know”’ Arielle pulled the duvet from her face, and there stood a maid, she was well-dressed and mannered. The name Grey sounded familiar she remembered she had to go in search of Leo because she didn't want to marry the old man who thing having all the money in the world translated to him having any woman not to mention her. She looked under the duvet and realized she was dressed in a man's clothes. “‘Please can I have something to wear, I mean female clothes”’ the maid walked over to the walk-in closet and w

Arielle got a call, and Leonard Grey asked her to go ahead and answer it. She takes the call and walks a few feet away. ‘’Hello? Who is this?’’ the number was not on her phone but it looked familiar. “Arielle, are you this heartless? You now say you dont have my number?” Edward roar through the phone, with so much anger. He had not gotten the idea in his head about her safety and he wanted to make sure she was safe. ‘’Oh, its you”’ Arielle scoff. She was not expecting a call from him of all people. “What do you want? I dont think I have any business to do with you do I?’’ Edward could not believe this was the same woman who would do anything just some months ago to make him happy, she would cook, make him breakfast, wait for him to return for them to eat dinner together, always pray for his safety, took care of his clothes and made sure he got everything right on track and worked every day on time. He missed those days. Anabel was not ready to take care of him as areille did, she w

Mr. Lambad walked out from the back yard, he had been visible for a while but no own took notice of him, they were interested in what Arielle was doing, what she was up to, and where she was heading with the will testament of her mother. Sir Lucas knew he was through, he knew if Arielle left the house with those documents he and Claudia would get nothing, she would not stay by his side for he would be worth nothing. “Dad I am your own son, I came to you and asked you about everything, I asked you about the contacts, but you refused to give me any, Laura was my wife and Arielle is our child. As her father I should get everything, I should be the one who takes everything and hands it over to her. It is hers but I should control it. She will soon be married into the Grey family and our Cowell family can not let everything be handed over to Strangers.” Mr. Lambad, walked over supporting himself on his cain to couch, he had been standing for a long time and his health was not as healthy
