Seeing the state of disarray his grandson was in, Kelvin went ahead and divulged the reason he came to the office to see Zachary. He was dissatisfied with the way Zachary treated a serious matter lightly. He had just learned from Maraya about Zachary's kidnap which was kept away from him."When were you planning to tell me about the kidnap? If Maraya hadn't told me, then I'd still be in the dark." Kelvin scolded him and he lowered his head in shame. He was going to tell Kelvin but not just yet. However, he had somehow found out from his trusted secretary. "I…. I'm sorry Grandpa for not filling you in on what was going on. I didn't want to get you worried." Maraya hurriedly left the office for the two men to continue with their dialogue."It was one of the reasons I assigned bodyguards to you and you have to go about your business with them for your good. In time you'll get used to having them around."Patting his shoulder with a warm smile, Kelvin walked through the half-open door l

The puzzled men stared at themselves with furrowed brows and mouths agape, throwing each other a questioning look. What just happened? Was this some sort of prank?Zachary was the most confused among the men. Was the lady a friend or a foe? If she was a foe, it certainly meant that trouble was brewing. Zachary's thoughts wandered around as he thought of who the spy could be. Was Duncan up to something again? Certainly not. He has been severely dealt with and can't even lift a finger.Well, his grandfather was right. More than anything else, he needed the bodyguards' protection. Zachary hated to admit that. His little freedom would be limited. Zachary threw a glance at Stone and he made a hand gesture while signifying that he was also confused.If the bodyguards weren't caught unaware, they would have chased down the intruder and found out what her mission was snooping around. Zachary did not utter a word, he just went back to his car and they drove in with his bodyguards following

Zachary came in for work in a very bad mood. It was now like a reoccurring incident that each time he bumped into his so-called father, a bad mood followed afterward. The last time his father showed himself to him, he had a very rough night and ended up getting kidnapped after his father's presence stirred up old memories. He had decided to visit his mother's gravestone but could not achieve his aim because of a rascal. How could he dare show his pathetic face to him again? The worst was that Grandpa Nathan had already forgiven him. He was even pushing him to forgive and forget about the past heartbreaking incident. Gosh!How could Grandpa Nathan easily let go after all he went through? How could he just forget about it just like that? Well, Grandpa Nathan and himself were two different people. He could not easily let go just like his grandfather. Since he came in for work very early, he decided to actualize what he had failed to do the other time.Taking up his phone, Zachary dialed

Mirabel eyelids flickered. She was totally clueless on how to react as she had just made a serious confession. No one knew about this except for the young man she paid some years ago to find out the truth. Now she had just disclosed it to Zachary. Really? How was she able to freely say that without holding back. Was it because of love? Yeah. Love could make one do crazy stuff.With Zachary's eyes still fixated on her, Mirabel lowered her gaze. She was somewhat embarrassed. What she did was crazy indeed."Why do you keep staring. Did I do something wrong?" Miracle muttered from under her breath, causing Zachary to flash a smile. "No, you didn't. As a matter of fact, I'm glad that you did what you did. It shows how concerned you are about me." Zachary was grateful indeed. He hadn't even thought of anything that would link him and Mirabel. However, he did not want to be indebted to the lady. He needed to pay her back for what she did. She had been taking care of his mother's gravestone a

It was six pm and it was time for work to close. One hour before the proposed dinner. Zachary was tense. Did he make a mistake by choosing to leave it at dinnertime? Lunch would have been better. Should he go home and prepare or just go from work? He might not be able to meet up if he decides to go home. Yeah, he would have to go there from the office. Cupping his face with both hands, Zachary fell into a deep thought. Peace offering. The idea came to him. But why?He needed to offer Mirabel a peace offering. Yeah.Zachary had been undeniably rude to her since the day she confessed her feelings for him. That was not a crime. It was bold of her to chase after love. Zachary had to commend her for that. Not every lady would have the temerity to chase after a man they loved.Even though he had yet to reciprocate her gesture of confessing her feelings, he still had to applaud her.A gesture. The thought of that took him back to the main idea. Peace offering. What would he offer her as a
