Susan's POV"Honey, are you ready? You could stay back if you wanted and rest. I will handle things myself." George called out from the kitchen where he was making breakfast for the two of us."I am fine, dear. I really want to come for this Parent-teacher meeting. It's a very good way of knowing how the children are doing well and possibly suggestions that could be made to improve their learning." I said as I headed downstairs to the kitchen.The accident that occured for almost a month now served as a turning point for me and George's marriage. I met with Patrick, who tried offering an explanation for his infidelity. I made it known to him that it was none of my business and he was free to do whatever he wanted with his life.I totally turned off all the feelings I had for Patrick and channeled all my love and affection towards George. He deserved better and I was going to make sure he got the faithful, loving wife he got married to.I got downstairs and saw George, humming and dan

Patrick’s POV“And the final conclusion will be to develop that estate in order to generate revenue for the company.”“But there is a factory there already, residents are complaining that the waste and fumes from the factory are affecting them. I don’t think it will be a good idea to invest so much on the estate located there.”“The government is currently working on that. Immediately they are done, there will be a lot of competition on that land. Its better we capitalize on it now before competition arises.”“You can’t trust the government these days. I suggest we wait until something is actually done about this before we forge ahead.”"CEO, what's your opinion?""CEO! CEO!"Sebastian sitting next to me tapped my leg, bringing me back to reality."Yes, I am here. What's the matter?" I asked, not sure about what was being discussed in the first place.The board of directors stared at me, convinced that I had not listened to a single thing they were talking about in the meeting.I sigh

Susan’s POV"The blue or red dress?""Wear the green one I got you last summer.""The green one? It's quite revealing, and I have put on some weight recently. I am not sure it's ideal for the occasion."George was taking me out to a fancy place. Other than business parties, it had been a while since we had been on a date. I appreciated his effort to rekindle our love, and it made me feel special."The other dresses you chose are too conservative, and I genuinely love how you look in the green gown," George insisted as he helped me decide on an outfit for our outing."Alright, I will wear the green dress and take a jacket with me if I start to feel uncomfortable," I finally conceded and put on the gown.George had finally accepted Abigail as our live-in maid, which excited me. Isabella had taken a liking to her and easily bonded with her. Abigail must be in Isabella's room reading her bedtime stories which Isabella enjoyed listening to."Darling, could you pass me my silver shoes? They

Sebastian’s POVPatrick and I were standing, locked in an intense stare-off with the waitress. I stood in between them, trying to understand the situation.Patrick, initially bewildered, quickly turned angry. "You! You ran away when they were looking for you to testify on the day Daniel died, didn't you?" He tried to move closer to the waitress, but I held him back, concerned about his anger."Patrick, calm down," I urged. "Is this the lady who was supposed to be with you the night Daniel died and was meant to be your alibi?"Patrick confirmed, "Yes, this is Rose."I asked Rose, "How could you do that? Where were you when the police were looking for you?"Rose replied, "I am sorry, but it was purely business, nothing more."Patrick was agitated, and Rose showed no remorse at all.I continued to question her, "Business? What business are you talking about?"But Rose looked at Patrick and responded, "Aren

Sebastian’s POVI was still in shock when I found out who had been waiting for me at my front door; it turned out to be Mason, my step brother.I asked him what he was doing here but he wouldn’t say a word and just kept crying silently. I brought him in, prepared a warm bath for him and gave him comfy clothes.Thankfully, the leftover home-made food Alice had prepared yesterday when she came by the house was still in the fridge and I quickly took it out and microwaved it for Mason to eat.Thank goodness Alice made this meal and insisted that we stored the leftover in the fridge rather than throwing it away as I had suggested. She still remained the best woman for me.I also went to my room to freshen up, and I noticed 53 missed calls from my mother. My phone had been on silent while I was at the bar with Patrick because I just wanted to relax and chill with him with no disturbance. Well, that eventually went in the opposite direction.I figured I should talk to Mason before calling m
