CATHERINE ... Soon, Addison came and picked me up. When the car stopped in front of the Agosti Corporation, I asked him to wait for me and went inside alone. Addison did not refuse as he knows once I am in the building, I am secure. I am very well known to the company, so no one stopped me and even greeted me. Entering the lift, I slowly removed my locket and placed it in my bag. The lift opened to the Chairman's office as I walked out. Marco's assistant stood up seeing me and greeted me. "Is he inside?" I asked and he nodded. "Yes, sir is waiting for you." Thanking him, I knocked on the door and walked in. Seeing me, Marco smiled and came to me. "Hey, how are you?" He asked as we hugged. "I am good and what about you? How are things with Bianca?" Marco scratched his back, he was a little shy, "She is fine too. As you know already, we are together now and trying to overcome our past mistakes." "That's good, people learn from the past," I said. "So, what is it? You seemed so....

CATHERINE... I sighed comfortably and took a sip of my green tea. Adelaide was inside with Liam and I was busy with my writing. I was in the office before but felt bored and came out in the garden. It's more comfortable here. The atmosphere in the Oakenhold mansion was warm and peaceful. The cold shadow that used to haunt this place has gone now. "Home feels good," I muttered loudly and inhaled a deep breath. "Glad you are enjoying, mistress." Margaret's familiar tone startled me inwardly as she entered the gazebo and placed a tray full of fruits in front of me. "Here is your fruits, ma'am." "I just had breakfast and now this?" I couldn't help but complain. She chuckled in reply. "It's been an hour after your breakfast. Master has a clear order to serve you healthy snacks and fruits in each hour." "......" Why am I not surprised? When he was cold he was too cold to the point that I was his wife only in name. And now, he was too caring that I was having a hard time to manage! I a

EDWARD... A hectic day at work. Loads of responsibilities as the Direction of the company. Dad was bedded and so the position of acting chairman was also on my shoulders. Soon, Dad would hand over his position to me officially. It's good that I have May here for help. She finally grew up and learned her duties by proving herself in the CEO's position after Regina was out. Once I took over the Chairman's seat, I would announce her as the director of the company. Everything was sorted until my mother appeared at my house and the conversation between Mom and Catherine hit me... I never meant to listen to their conversations. It was my worried self who kept checking on his wife and daughter every thirty minutes, that's when I paused. I had to. I Don't know when mom went home, I caught the parlance when mom was dissatisfied with the huge image of me and my wife in our hall... From there, I heard all of it. Every single one of their words. As much as I was angry with my mother, I was sc

CATHERINE ... I stared at Jayden... A bit shocked, puzzled and too much embarrassment with a creepy feeling. I mean, last time we met at our banquet in Italy. I didn't remember him back then and honestly, I almost forgot about him later. After all, he does not fit any of my problems, not until now. Meeting him again was not a weird thing, but him catching me in a lingerie shop buying something that I would only like to wear for my husband. And the most awkward part was him complimenting me on it. Oh and yeah, last time he was right. We were together in college. He definitely wasn't like this at that time but more of a shy nerd. With big and heavy glasses on he used to come to the college and sit in the last. Used to get bullied by others which I used to defend. I always felt bad for him and sympathised always. Honestly, if he hadn't introduced him last time I wouldn't have passed away him as a creepy Stranger, although he did not seem less creepy now too. I slowly fisted the linge

JERARD ROULLARD ... As a father, I have never stood out for my daughter. I know I am not a good father but I tried... I tried my very best to protect my daughter since she came into my life. Locking her in the room was not a choice but a force of her action. A father wanted to be loved by his daughter. Was it too much to ask for? I looked up at the photo of my deceased wife, Linda Agosti. Although she always went by Windsor since she left her home for me. I am a fucking bustard for not treating her right. Because of Agostis I lost my father and chose to destroy them by stepping on their respect. So, I lured Linda into my Web. To make her fall in love with me and then throw her out. But... My entire plan was ruined the day I realised that while making her fall for me I have fallen for her the hardest way possible. I never intended to disclose that secret ever and wanted to start my new life with Linda. However, every story has its own villain and in my story, the villain was my ex-
