"Who the fuck are--" Kira stopped before she could complete her statement. Noah stood confused as to why she was wearing lingerie.“What, What are you doing here Noah?" Kira stuttered nervously and suddenly became defensive at the door and looked behind her one too many times like she had something or someone to hide. Noah was observant at the same time he felt like it wasn't his business and just wanted his stuff."Kira , I have no time for whatever this was. “I'm just here for my wallet, you hear?"Kira didn't budge from the door. Noah was losing his patience. “Kira, move from the god damn door or I'll move you. I need my wallet, now and fast!"“Noah, you came here unannounced. I don't know where your wallet is. I'll look for them later and get back to you, you don't need to yell at me. Besides, I'm quite occupied.”Kira said while still defending at the door. Noah ran out of patience and was highly suspicious of Kira's sudden attitude.“Kira, move!“ Noah yelled one last time as a

Sophia strode into a little cafe very close to her workplace. She spotted Chantelle sitting at the far end looking nervous. “Hi,” she said flatly sending Chantelle an air kiss. Chantelle sighed of relief. She was obviously surprised that Sophia made it. Chantelle stretched her hand across the table taking Sophia's and rubbing it over with her thumb. “I've missed you so much Sophia. Ever since you went to Florida I've been trying to reach you. I called you on the day you were supposed to travel but your phone was switched off.”She cleared her throat when she saw the indifferent look on Sophia's face, “After that I tried calling over and over. Your number was unavailable. When I checked in with the landlord, he told me that you were kicked out of the apartment. I was so heartbroken. I think there was a problem with the payment or something. I'm so sorry you endured all of that alone.”Chantelle's practiced air of innocence was messing with Sophia's head. She stifled her laughter befo

Sophia offered him a small smile. “I never said I wanted it down. It was a good picture.” Noah stared blankly, confusion written all over his expression. A chuckle from Sophia got him laughing hard. She noticed Noah clutching onto the fuchsia pink envelope. With a tilt of her head, she gently nudged him, her voice laced with intrigue, "What's in the envelope, Noah?"Noah hesitated for a moment, his eyes flickered with a mix of emotions— perhaps a hint of nervousness. He shifted uncomfortably before finally meeting Sophia's gaze, his voice soft yet guarded, "It's nothing, really. Just... a birthday invitation."Sophia raises an eyebrow, sensing there was to the story that Noah was letting on. "Whose birthday?" she probed gently, her curiosity piqued.His hesitation made her curiousity heighten. What could be so important that the CEO of Milton group would be so hesitant to say?“You never stroked me as the type to attend a baby shower.”Noah hesitated once more, fumbling for words. A

“Sophia, wait, please,” Noah shouted as they passed through a swarm of guests taking pictures and mingling outside. He felt horrible. After finding out the twins were his, he never announced it. That was because he thought Sophia wanted it that way. Tanya was not going to get away with what she did. “What? What the fuck do you want?” She increased her pace, gradually cleaning off the tears streaming down her cheeks. Her heart had completely sunk into her feet. She was so upset, so much so that she made a fool of herself. She dug her nails into her palm. ‘You're so stupid! What were you trying to prove?’She didn't know what hurt more, her lungs constricting, or her heart beating rapidly against her chest, threatening to jump out. He watched as she ran towards her car in heels. “Sophia, you're going to fall!”“Leave me alone!” she retorted. Just then, someone reversed their car very quickly almost sending Sophia to the floor face down. “You see what I was saying,” Noah scolded as h

“What's the good word Savannah?”“As you know you have a lot of enemies. Not because you did anything wrong but because people always want to reap where they didn't sow.”“Do you have any leads?”“No, not for now. But if anything changes, I'll let you know. How's Sophia holding up?” Noah turned back to find Sophia taking a spin on the swivel chair. After being in a frenzy for an hour when the realization of her kids kidnap finally hit. Now she was impossible calm, no single hint of expression on her face. “To be honest, I don't know.”“I understand, she's in denial. Just make sure she doesn't do anything stupid.”Noah nodded, “Will do,” they both went silent before the call came to an end. “Sophia,” he said charging towards her as another round of tears threatened to stream down her cheeks. “I've mobilized the military and hell, even the FBI. Except the culprit is some underworld mafia boss, I don't see them getting far with our babies, okay?”Sophia nodded softly, “But what if they
