Tyrone threw everything his hands could reach against the wall. He was this close. This fucking close to getting what he wanted and Zade showed up from nowhere.Business-wise, he knew his grandfather favored Zade and Elizabeth over others. They were the ones with the supposed natural talent. It made Tyrone furious every time he thought about it. Every time he tried to bring up the topic, his father would shut him down or his grandfather would tell him to focus on the Mafia or pick whatever he wanted to venture into.Tyrone had been clear that he wanted to manage one of the companies but his grandfather handed him a collapsing company with nothing to offer. The moment it crashed, everyone looked at him like was the devil. He tried explaining that the company's failure had nothing to do with him. It was going to fold whether he was on the seat or not. Until his grandfather claimed it was a test to test his managerial skills. What pissed him off was the fact that Zade and Elizabeth di

Ever been in a situation where you think your problems are over and you could live your best life but boom, life digs out an old enemy to grow you off. That was Zade's situation now. Elsa and him went to the florist store to pick up some flowers for Adera. It was at the same time Pamela entered the store, heavily pregnant. Anyone would have assumed that the pregnancy would calm her a bit but the woman literally flew into his arms. “Zade! It's been ages!!” She exclaimed, throwing her arms around him.Elsa stood aside, watching the display. “I heard your family buried a fake body. I was going to come to visit you all but I haven't been in town for quite sometime.”Zade pulled Elsa to himself.“Allow me to introduce my wife, Elsa. Elsa this is Pamela, Pamela this is Elsa.”“No title attached to my name?” She teased. “that's so sad. I thought we used to be close buddies.”“It was nice to meet you again, Rose. If you'd excuse me, my wife and I have more important things to handle,” Zade

customer walked into the shop while Helen was trying to balance the cash register. When he leaned on her desk, the familiar cologne forced her to look up. Her jaw dropped when she saw the last person she expected to see. “Did you miss your way?” She asked coldly. “That is not a very nice way to address your husband,” Tyrone said smugly. Helen didn't smile. “What do you want? I'm sure you're not here to buy coffee,” she almost gritted. Who would believe that a day that was going so well just needed her arrogant abusive ex to ruin it? She couldn't even calm him and his ex because they weren't legally separated. However, she was going to make sure they did as soon as she was done serving her punishment. “I just wanted to talk to you,” he said.“We're open for coffee, not therapy sessions. If you can't hire a therapist then do well to go to church and talk to a priest. They are always willing to listen to you. I don't have the time for this.” She returned to what she was doing. Ty

Zade noticed Elsa’s mood when she returned from the mall. Something must have happened at the mall.“Why are you pissed?” He asked her.“What makes you think I'm pissed?” Elsa returned the question. “Your chopped carrots are flying all over.”Elsa dropped the knife off the chopping board. “Well since you asked, I saw your ex in the mall. today and she wouldn't shut up about how much you pampered her in high school.”Zade was tempted to laugh but he knew Elsa wouldn't appreciate it. “She said all this to you at the mall?” He asked. “Yes. She said you cooked for her, wouldn't let her come near the kitchen, and all that nonsense. I didn't even care about it, you know, but why didn't she feel the need to share all that information? I know the man I married. He loves cooking. I don't need her to lecture me,” Elsa stated.“Jealousy looks good on you,” Zade said and she glared at him. “Of all the things I said, the only thing you could think about was jealousy? I just told you that your

Zion arrived in the office the next day. He was later than usual but he hoped his boss would pardon him and not question him about it. It didn't go the way he planned because Elizabeth was already running late for a meeting but she had to wait for him to arrive. “You're late! Again!” She stated.“I'm sorry, boss,” he apologized meekly as always.“You should stop apologizing and actually start doing something about it. Every day you come in late with your usual apology and today, even later. Do you even take this internship seriously?” She scolded him.His jaw tightened. The emerald eyes pierced through hers with a burning sensation. Was he angry? “You're angry at me for scolding you? You have guts I tell you!” She was about to release her own rage now. She already lost fifteen minutes of an important meeting waiting for him to arrive and he was furious at her. The audacity!“I already said I'm sorry,” he gritted. Elizabeth glared at him before walking out of the office. He followe
