Sophia was in her elements. After all that had happened with Kira, Noah and her business, she needed the rest. When she got home, she poured herself a glass of non-alcoholic wine. She still had a lot to get through. Building her company's reputation was not going to be an easy task but she was willing to go through the stress, her children's future depended on itNoah promised to help her get through this phase. No matter how much she protested, he didn't listen. Eventually she gave in. As she thought about Noah, pain struck through her heart. She remembered Noah's expression from earlier, how he sent his phone to an early grave over what he said was a ‘minor inconvenience’ with one of his sites. No matter how much she asked, he didn't reveal a single detail, said he didn't want her to worry. She felt bad that he wouldn't let her in. A knock on her kitchen door had her spilling her wine all over the kitchen Island. She walked over to the door then peeked through the transparent gl

Noah's phone chimed. By now he knew who it was. [Shit, I'm so sorry. I thought they could swim.]Sophia stared at him. He had just been told that his children were drowning, what was he looking at on his phone. Whatever it was seemed to get him more upset. Her mind went blank. What was he so worried about?When she had managed to collect her thoughts, she realized she was the only one in the office. She had gone blank for way too long. "Oh no! The kids! What's happening?"They both rush out to the infinity pool area, where the kids were laid out. Harriet tried to carry out CPR. Sophia was completely paralyzed, "Oh my god! The kids! They're...they're...""I've got them! I've got them!" He rushed over to Addison while Harriet was on Aiden. They were still in their uniforms. If they wanted to jump in, they would have taken off their clothes. The twins could swim really well but water that keep could kill them easily. "This isn't over, Noah. I want the truth. Now.“ she was shook. ”

‘Learn to share?’ Those words resonated in Sophia's mind. She backed away slowly and made her way upstairs, her heart raced with anxiety.She needed to get out of there. She entered into the bedroom, her eyes scanned the room as she took a deep breath. She began to quickly pack her belongings, her hands were shaking slightly as she tried her possible best to calm herself down.‘I can't stay here. I can't be around her. She's toxic.’Sophia zipped up her suitcase and grabs her house keys, double-checking to make sure she has everything. She took a final glance around the room, her eyes lingered on everything. She took a deep breath, steeling herself, and heading for the children's room. Noah caught her by the shoulders. His eyes were filled with concern as he saw her with her packed bags."Sophia, what are you doing? You can't leave now.""I have to, Noah. I can't stay here with her. She's making me uncomfortable, and I don't feel safe.""Okay, I get it. But you cannot leave in the m

Harriet Milton's mansion had become a horror house. It seemed like her worse nightmare had materialized. George Milton was playing games with her even from the grave. “How could you? How dare you George.” She went through a box of old love letters he had written her, riping them bit by bit. She was angry and bitter. She gave all she had to the man and this was the way he thought to repay her?She had first met George in college and no matter how much he asked her out, she declined. It was only a matter of time before she agreed to court the young billionaire and was hoax into a contract marriage. Because of all the bills her family was drowning in, the contract got extended far more that she thought. Just like Noah, George's father requested he get married and provide him a legitimate heir. George loathe his father for what he did so when he gave his son the same condition and a year to fulfil it, she was quite surprised. Maybe he had finally understood his father’s reason for do

“So you're just going from work, then you're to see a friend, then you'll be back here?” “That sounds about right. I'll be back before 5pm so I can help you supervise, my mum.”“Alright, I'll take your word for it.”Noah left a very important detail out. He wasn't going to work, he had other plans. Since the kids loved attempting to drive so much, he had decided to get them cars. Not just any kind, custom made from a car company itself. They were children of a conglomerate, they deserved the best. Noah kept it from Sophia because he wanted it to be a surprise, both to her and the kids. Sophia was bad at surprises and keeping secrets. The other reason he was out was to meet up with his college friend. She had said she had something important to discuss with him. He tried to push the meeting but she insisted that it was important, she even called it an emergency. Since she was so persistent, he squeezed her into his schedule. It was supposed to be in and out, or so he thought. The
