“Selene,” Henry called out.He had no idea why Selene had fainted. He didn’t even touch her so he didn’t know why she should faint.Elizabeth then came out and revived her. Opening her eyes and meeting the gaze of Henry made her want to faint the second time but it wasn't possible.“What’s happening here?” Elizabeth urged Henry immediately.Seeing how Selene acted at first, she thought it was a minor case but for her to faint due to shock, it must be something very serious.“Ms. Selene, are you sure you would love your mother to be here while we talk about everything?”Selene didn't know what Henry knew and why he referred to their situation as everything but she didn't let her mum stay. “Mum, could you please excuse us?”Elizabeth looked her at daughter before getting up. However, as a smart woman, she vowed to eavesdrop on the conversation.“Years ago, when you came to my office and made me dismiss your sister, what were your intentions?”All those things were passed, so what was H

Clara stood motionless looking at Mrs. Peters. If it was before, Alex would have defended her but right now, there was no such thing.“Ma, I do not love Alex for money.” Clara tried to defend herself, at least, to save her dignity.“Did I hear you say Love? There is no such thing as Love Clara. I am trying to say you married him for money and not love him for money. You were never in love with him.”Trying to mince words to Mrs. Peters was something that wasn't going to yield to anything so Clara didn't bother anymore.“How much do you need?” Alex asked her.Clara looked around. How could Alex be asking her for the amount in front of Mrs. Peters? It was a huge sum and mentioning it here would make everything she said be true.But she didn't have a choice. He was looking at her curiously. He wasn't even figuring out anything like that and she was the only one thinking it through.So sharply, she calculated all it would cost her to settle the credit union and also Elizabeth. A hundred a

Early hours of the morning. Clara didn't admit the fact that Alex or his mother or Annie was in the house. All she wanted to do was to go and settle her debts.She had called Elizabeth and given her the money in secret. She also met with a representative of Annie and paid the fifty million they claimed her mum was owing.How foolish of her not to ask for any evidence, no signing of documents, nothing at all to show that Mrs. Roberts actually owed them money, but she went ahead to pay.But she was not to be blamed, the pressure of having to pay the sum Elizabeth required and bury her mum made her not critically analyze or understand anything anymore.Elizabeth and Selene were rejoicing after getting the money. “Mum, this would be enough for us to shop the whole week,” Selene said merrily.“I will get skincare products and more designer clothes and bags. Young master Alex would find me very attractive from now onwards.” Elizabeth smiled. “You have to take it easy, my daughter. Go and c

“If you saw it indeed, why do you want me to release this woman then?” Mrs. Peters furiously asked, Alex was still holding her wrist and she couldn't do anything about it.“I don't think Clara did this,” Alex spoke.Alex looked at Clara steadily for five seconds and darted to his mum. More like he studied her reaction. “I am certain Clara didn't do this,” he added again.“Young master Alex!” Annie uttered “Alex!” Mrs. Peters called.“Have you been bewitched again, how could you say that, Alex?”Alex left his mum’s wrist. He faced Clara. “Did you post this?” He asked, signaling everyone to focus on her reply.“I didn't post anything. I don't even know what everyone is talking about.”Alex looked at his mum. “Mum, did you hear that?”“Even an armed robber doesn't accept that he or she is a thief so how could you judge by what she says?”Alex didn't know how else to justify for Clara so he just took him with her.“Come with me.” He said and began dragging her away.When they got outsid

Clara began to tap on her screen multiple times and robbed her eyes but the apology was really there, she wasn't seeing things.She phoned Sophia back immediately and she confirmed that the person had posted an apology.She didn't know if that was good or bad news. What if the Peters family finally gets convinced that she is the one and that she has taken it down to post an apology?She decided to go look for Alex in his room. “See, the person has taken the post down and apologized. Do you see this?”“Yes, I did.” Alex’s reply was cold. When they posted the negative news, everyone wanted to crucify her, now that is being rectified, they all acted nonchalantly.“Have you seen Annie?” Clara asked and Alex told her that he hadn't.She wondered where she was and left the room to look for her.Alex smiled to himself. It must have felt good to see Clara happy again, but he didn't show it.The fact that Andrew hacked into the account and posted an apology doesn't mean that those pictures did

Elizabeth's eyes darted to the package with the young man. Could the package be for Clara?“Can you disclose why are looking for her?” She asked.“Our organization has a package for her. Do you know who this person is?” The man asked, the way that Elizabeth acted was as if she knew something about her.Elizabeth looked at the package once more. What organization could have a package for Clara? She asked herself.The man was also with a photograph so he wouldn't be able to give the package to anyone who wasn't in the picture on it.Selene ran over to them. “Mum, who is this man looking for? Clara?”The look Elizabeth gave to Selene made her keep quiet. So Elizabeth asked the delivery young man. “Can we receive this in place of her? I am her step-mum and this is her sister.” Elizabeth said.On a normal day, Elizabeth would deny Clara and claim not to know her but now that it seemed beneficial, she accepted to be her stepmother.“Unfortunately, the policies of the organization have that

“Elizabeth, what are you trying to do?” Clara asked, trying to protect the packaged items. She didn't know the items were but she must protect it with all of her.“You shift out of the way or you would rather get injured,” Elizabeth advised her but Clara was still protective of it.Then Selene came out chanting. “Mum, is the logistics man here yet?” and then saw the duo struggling for the package.The question made Clara realize that it wasn't a coincidence as they both knew she was receiving something.Yet, whether by coincidence or not, she would let anyone tamper with items her mum saved for her. She had browsed about the company long before and all she could say was that she wouldn't let them take this from her.Mrs. Roberts must have a reason for wanting it for her daughter.Selene then walked further and pushed Clara behind which made Clara stagger further a bit.“Mum, do you have any idea of what will be in here?” Selene asked, as most of the items were wrapped and they couldn'

Elizabeth realized she wasn’t meant to say that loud. Alex was still looking, “what agreement?” He asked again.“Family agreement. We agreed that family issues should remain with the family.” Selene shouted from behind, knowing that her mum was short of words.“That doesn’t matter much since I’m family too. What do you think, mother-in-law?” Alex asked.It was the first time that Alex was referring to Elizabeth as mother-in-law and he only did that to prove a point.Elizabeth was also wordless. To her, Alex calling her mother-in-law means that he still has the intention of keeping Clara as his wife. Which she didn’t like.After some stillness, Alex had to order Elizabeth to give back every single item to Clara. “But Young master, my mum…”“You dare not say a word!” He replied to Selene who dared to interrupt him.After Elizabeth and Clara packed the items to hand them over to Clara, Alex left with Clara.In the car, the driver was driving towards the house. “Are you not going to th

Annie didn’t even care to be sure of her thoughts or wait for a response before deciding to broadcast.During the period that Clara and Alex were in the room, Annie hurriedly picked up her bags to go to Mr. Peters's house.She met Mr & Mrs Peters as expected. “Mum, Dad, guess what? Alex and Clara are finalizing the divorce.”“How sure are you about this?” Mr. Peters requested.“Dad, I am very sure. Alex left work and came back home with Clara today.” Annie narrated, they waited for her to continue as that wasn’t enough reason but that was the only thing she gotta say.As much as Mr & Mrs Peters doesn’t find her explanation to justify the fact that Alex was divorcing Clara, it could be credible because she was living with them. So they accepted the news.After that, Mr. Peter decided that he was going to begin planning for Annie’s wedding. Her parents would be invited in due time since they were out of the country.“Contact all the top personalities in regards to event planning.” He or

When Alex came home that night, he went straight into his bedroom. Despite Annie’s attempt to get his attention, it wasn’t possible.He had been thinking everything through, the fact that Jane was coming to New York and what his relationship with Clara was like.There was only a way to be sure of all these and that was to contact Henry Brown.Although the possibility of Henry telling a lie against Clara because he likes her was there, he would make sure to investigate well before taking action like his parents wanted.Even when a part of him trusts Clara, he also needs to know all those involved in setting her up, and only then will he deal with the people involved.Also, Clara should be willing to understand that he didn’t have anything with Selene.“CEO Alex, I have been expecting your call,” Henry said the moment he knew Alex was on the line.“Let’s see at the restaurant,” Alex replied.“Hey, Director Alex, are you asking me out? Am I a lady?” Henry teased.Alex wasn’t in for all t
