Cayenne got out of her car in front of the BrisWell Corps. Stepping into the elevator, she covered her head with the hoodie and pressed the 10th button.Wayne had asked her to find out when Mr Smith would be free, so they'd come visit him.Wayne had discovered what Smith did to Aleena, and while thinking she deserved it, he dug deeper into the man's issue and saw that he was very powerful and had been responsible for the sudden crash in the stock price of the Moore's corporations.He seemed to have an odd hatred for the Moore's and want nothing other than their downfall. All his previous financial decisions said this.Cayenne made sure to wear a black fringe wig, so she'd not be recognised."Hi, ma'am." She greeted the receptionist cheerfully. "Where can I find the way to Mr Smith's office?""Down the hall, first turn on the left."Cayenner nodded, but as she strode down, she bumped into a well dressed man.The documents on his hands fell and their eyes met."No!" Cayenne screamed and

Wayne walked up to the bedside cabinet, retrieving the bottle of medications.He turned around to hand Mathew a glass of water and a pill. "Here, take this and calm down."The man had been so terrified when he saw the photo of Wallace. His lips quivering and all."What is wrong, Mathew?" Wayne asked, taking a seat beside him. "This man was once your friend, right?"Mathew nodded. "Up until he got sent to jail for domestic violence and attempted murder." his lips shook. "9 years." His eyes shone."After that, James Wallock tried to contact Simon and I, but we just didn't want to have anything to do with him. We'd heard all what he did in jail.""Really?" Wayne muttered. "I need you to tell me all you can recall about this man, every single thing, to his current dress sense and when last you saw him.""Why?" Mathew snapped his head up."Well-" Wayne was about to tell him everything.Mathew's lips quivered. "Don't tell me he's the one behind all of this?" He grabbed Wayne's shoulders har

Nikki knocked gently on the door."Who's there?" Loretta's voice came from within."Oh, it's just me." She smiled, making her way in.Loretta was a bit taken aback. It was still early in the morning, she was just about to get up and prepare her daughter fo school when she didn't find Wayne anywhere.He'd left a text saying he had to quickly see someone."Well, I just wanted to see how you were doing, Loretta." Nikki gave a half smile, making her way towards the bed."Really?" Loretta wasn't falling for it. "When did you begin to care about my welfare?""Oh, my dear." Nikki sighed. "I know we haven't been best of friends or all that, but I'm your uncle's fiancé, right? I'm family, you can't keep malice with me forever."Loretta shook her head unpleasantly. "Of that's all you've got to say, I'll have to show you to the door. Thanks for your kind gestures!" Nikki didn't retreat, instead she took a seat on the bed, a small smile still on her face. "I'm really sorry for what happened back

“It's fine dear, nature has a way of gifting us something else for whatever we lose.” Mum patted her hair fondly.Alice wiped her tears to stare at her mother’s face, “You aren't surprised, why?”“I kind of figured it out when you returned home early and looking downcast yesterday.”“Mum.” The tears flowed harder. “I'm sorry for letting you down.”“You didn't let me down, love. Audition or no audition, win or lose, you’re still my precious daughter that I cherish so much.”Alice kept sobbing until she began to feel sleepy, she pulled her Mum into an embrace and whispered. “I love you, Mum and I would do anything to make you happy.”As she went to bed that night, she made a decision to never give up, no matter what came her way.The next day, Alice woke up late and ended up getting to work late, but she was relieved to find out that the Principal was not yet in school.She went about her normal activities of taking care of other people's children, feeding them, cleaning their poop, hel

Alice kneaded the dough thoroughly, adding some butter and re-kneading.Her fingers felt stiff but she continued anyway, they’d run out of supplies for the evening sales so she had to.The thought of abandoning everything flashed through her mind, but the fact that her mum was still lying in a hospital made her continue working vigorously.The heat from the oven sizzled her skin and made her realize that the oven was ready, as she began piling the dough in, Juliet came in.Alice looked up at her. “How’s it going over there?”“Fine.” Juliet sighed, looking her from up to down. “You can go have some rest, Miss. I’ll look after the oven.”“No, Thanks. Julie. I have to make sure everything comes out well.”“You look like you could pass out any minute from now, you’ve been working since morning, please-”“I have to work. My Mum is in the hospital.”Juliet went to put on an apron. “That’s more reason why you should have some rest. Come on, we don’t have much customers at this time, you can
