Chapter 32Mason visited his mother's house. He had never been to the estate before. He had never had reason to visit. The mansion was huge and expansive, the driveway sprawling. Mason could see a number of cars in the parking lot. He approached the front door, relieved that he did not have to answer any questions to get inside. He swung the front door open and stepped into the entryway.Mason turned to the right and walked down the hallway. He rounded the corner into the living room.On the wall, he noticed his mother's portrait hanging. His mother was just a girl in that picture, not a grown woman with a husband and a child.Mason sighed; He was contemplating something as he looked at the image. After ascending, he found Old Master McDonald in his study."Old master." He called, his face expressionless. Mason's almond eyes were like the depths of the ocean; nothing could be seen, no matter how far you probed, and nothing could be felt. His expression could fool even the wisest ma

Leonard was absent, giving her no resistance. "Mason," she exclaimed, but then remembered their last disagreement and paused mid-way. "Just take it easy my love. You know you can never get rid of me - I'm still the mother of your baby and that fact won't change.""I said I will not accept that child, for your sake and for my own." he replied. "But he's already born. Look at this photo - isn't he cute?" She showed him the picture. "You understand that the child is blameless, and you wouldn't want your child to experience the same as you did. Mason, you can't let it go that far."Tanya then revealed that she had conducted her own investigation and knew why Mason's parents had to flee for their lives - they were on opposing sides.Mason was in a thoughtful state. Ultimately, he expressed that the kid was blamel

She had something in mind that she had been thinking about for a while but she could not bring herself to tell them yet. she didn't know how they would take it."Tanya dear " Her mother called. "is something wrong?"Tanya nodded. "yes Mom. I'm fine.""You might be fine but what is going on in your head? you've wen picking at your food for a while now. Do you have something today?"Tanya cast a side glance at her grandmother who was already looking at her and their eyes locked.'what the heck! they highest they'll do is scold me or reject the idea' she thought to herself.she sighed heavily. "grandma? mom? There's something I've been thinking about. I'd like to go into modelling."Both mother and grandmother looked at each other. "Can I ask why?" her mother asked."well, it's...."The reason is not

chapter 38Ana blinked rapidly as if trying to understand what she just heard. she opened her mouth to leak but closed it immediately. She was at a loss for words.What was this all about? Eh? Why was an adult behaving so childishly?Was this not the same Mason McReynolds everyone thought so highly of? Why has he been behaving so shamelessly with her ever since they met? Why was he being so annoying to the extent that he made it difficult to think? What was his game? And what on earth was he doing taunting her?Ana could not believe what she just heard."Mr Mason, I'm sorry but I don't get you.""What's there not to get? I want to come in and have dinner, it'll be too late for me to cook when I get home. what's there not to get?" he asked again."Aren't you ashamed? You want to come into a lady's house to eat?

Although she wasn't very popular as top models, her name was heard of once in a while and a few people could attest to seeing her.But within this time, a certain person disturbed her thoughts. though she hadn't seen them together after that day, Tanya had not been able to get the image of two of them being together out of her mind. She didn't know why but she felt like the woman threatened her plans to be with Mason. She couldn't let that happen. After that day, she had sent someone to look into the woman's background and find out who she was but she was yet to receive any tangible information.
