Dorothy, relishing the drama she had stirred, twirled around and sat on a nearby bench, reclining completely backwards in a relaxed posture. A satisfied smirk was present on her lips, as she thought about how wonderfully she had turned this into an entertaining family gathering. After all, some chaos always tends to make things more interesting.Just by a simple nudging, she had brought up so many topics to the surface, which would otherwise be swept under the rug, if not for her.But she couldn't let the situation get too messy, otherwise it would be impossible for her to act as a messenger of peace.So, she finally spoke up in a distressed voice;"Oh come on, you guys… I have come to visit my niece, and is this how you welcome me?" Scarlet shot her aunt a disapproving glance, "Aunt Dory, please. This is a serious matter, and I want to finish it once and for all today. Either my mother will understand that I am happy with my husband and I'm not leaving him, or I'll cut off all rel

Artis' attention was divided on many fronts as he left Scarlet in the hospital room, even though he wanted to do anything but that.He was walking absentmindedly, and that's why, he almost bumped into Chad and didn't even realize it until the last moment.He managed to avoid the collision, but something about Chad's expression told him that he was purposefully trying to walk towards Artis and trying to knock him down.When he ignored Chad completely and started to walk past him, the look of annoyance on his face became even more intense."I know you are no better than any beggar from the footpath, but I just found out that you don't know basic manners either! Hasn't anyone bothered to teach you that you should say sorry in this situation?"Artis was in no mood to entertain him, and he just muttered;"Go ahead and say sorry, then, if you have written the book on manners…""What did you say!" Chad's nostrils flared with anger as he bellowed out,"First, you walk like a blind son of a bi

The respectful and polite behavior with which Dr Cameron had greeted Artis did not go unnoticed by the other guests, who were now talking amongst themselves to find out if anyone knew who he was.After all, an eminent and famous doctor like Dr. Cameron, who had not only treated celebrities but was practically a celebrity himself, wouldn't be showing so much concern towards nobody.But at the same time, there was nothing particularly striking or outstanding about this man… at first, he seemed like someone who was invited out of formality.As Artis settled into the designated seat, a wave of speculation surged through the room. Whispers and hushed conversations filled the air as the guests struggled to decipher the reason, and the subtle nods and deferential gestures from Dr. Cameron only deepened the mystery."I have never seen this person, or heard of him before. Who is he?""He must be someone important, given the way Dr. Cameron is speaking to him. Do you think he is some high-prof

Chad finally managed to stand on his own two feet, supported by Dante, and he lunged straight at Artis."Do you even know what you have done–""I told you more than enough times now! Stay away from my wife, what don't you understand?"Artis growled threateningly before Chad could even finish his sentence, making him take a few steps back. Dante barely managed to hold him back, as the blood spurted out of his nose. But Chad was seething with fury, and he was even more enraged to witness the lack of remorse from Artis. Ignoring the blood trickling down his face, he pulled out his phone and dialed a number while glaring at Artis menacingly. "Jimmy," he spat into the phone, "I need you to handle something for me. Come over to the Victorian Grande hotel; there's a situation that requires your… expertise."Artis, unfazed by Chad's ominous call, maintained a calm demeanor. He looked Chad directly in the eye and remarked, "Interesting, is this what you label an attack? A single punch from

"Listen, mister! I have already tolerated your disrespectful behavior for long enough. How can you even imagine insulting a person of his stature? In any case, causing a ruckus within the hotel premises is not something we take lightly. So this is your last warning before I get you thrown out."Jessica gave Chad a stern warning, leaving him seething. He wanted to reply with harsh words, but she didn't even give him a chance to say a single word before turning to face Artis."Mr. Hardy, please let me know if you face any further problems because of this person. I will promptly instruct the security to kick him out.""Thanks a lot, Miss–""Stop! Stop this nonsense right now! What is happening over here? Have I just stepped into a parallel universe or something? What do you mean, you will kick ME out, on his word? Is there some misunderstanding–"Before Chad could continue his rant any further, he was interrupted by the sound of his phone ringing for the third time. "Who the hell is it…
