Failed Plan.
The couple of weeks after the trending news were hectic for Quinn, as she worked tirelessly to keep the company moving forward. Although she had garnered a lot of respect from the board members, not everyone was supportive of her leadership. Some were determined to see her fail, and they were willing to go to any lengths to ensure that she did.Two board members in particular had been openly against her from the beginning. Mr. Charles and Mrs. Jack, are two long-serving members of the board.They had made it clear that they didn’t believe Quinn had what it took to lead the company. Not only because she was not on their side, but because she had taken away the power they had to control a part of the company.Quinn had sensed that something was off, but she couldn’t put her finger on it. There were whispers in the hallways and suspicious glances from some of the employees, as she walked into the building."What's going on? Why does everyone seem like they were talking about me? Is t

Mr. Gerald's Wish.
"Quinn, where are we going?" Veronica asked, feeling frustrated that Quinn was ignoring her."I want to sell you off," she replied, getting off the cab."What do you mean by selling me off?" She frowned, trailing behind her.Quinn suddenly stopped, "Close your eyes." She said, her voice, demanding."What? Why? What sort of games are you playing?" Quinn did not waste any time to blindfold her."Listen to my instructions, and obey all of them."Knowing that she could not beat Quinn, she sighed in obedience."Take three steps forward, and stop."She obliged and came to a halt. She felt a hand grab her waist, and with reflex, she removed the blindfold and found Richard dressed up in a black suit."Richard? What's going on? I could have punched you, you know?" He chuckled, and went down on one knee, taking out a box.He opened it, and voiced out, "Veronica, will you marry me?"She was taken aback, not expecting this sudden gesture. She had told him that she was not ready to get married y

Wedding.
The day of Quinn and Harrison's wedding was drawing near. The atmosphere seemed to have changed as the weight that hung over Harrison became unbearable.The news of Jacob’s escape from prison had hit him like a thunderbolt. The thought of Jacob bothered him so much, that he kept zoning out of space, threatening to destroy everything he had worked so hard to build. Although Jacob was dangerous and manipulative, he was not going to give him a chance. He could not risk it. Not today. Not with Quinn.

Just The Beginning.
The room was silent, each anxiously waiting to hear what she had to say. She had unexpectedly left the state, and now, she suddenly showed up. It was not hidden that she had a motive; maybe to destroy the union between the two. She glanced at everyone, and back at the soon-to-be couple. "Hello, everyone. Harrison is someone I love, and I always hoped to be his wife, one day," she paused, studying everyone's expression. Quinn's grip tightened on Harrison, as she almost forgot how to breathe, staring at Yvonne with a trembling expression. "However, every time I tried to get closer to him, it seemed like something—someone was pulling him away, and I realized that there was no way I would get him for myself. What am I saying? I am happy for Quinn and Harrison. I wish you two well." With that, she stepped out of the altar, joining the others. It was unexpected. They were all expecting her to say the opposite, but her words shocked them. Her words brought a strange sense of relief.

On A Date.
Eva stood before the mirror, her fingers adjusting the neckline of her dress. The burgundy gown clung to her curves. They had barely had time to themselves these past few weeks, and the idea of a quiet evening with Ivan filled her with joy. Tonight was just for them. When Ivan finally arrived to pick her up, the sight of him took her breath away. He was dressed in a tailored black suit, his hair neatly styled, and he looked every bit of the man she had fallen in love with. They drove in silence, their hands intertwined, as they sat behind. When the car pulled up in front of Gerald's Suites, Eva’s eyes widened in surprise. “Ivan, what is this?” she asked, a smile tugging at the corners of her lips. “Just wait,” he replied, his eyes sparkling with excitement.

Candles flickered on every sur

Eva sat on the couch, flipping through a magazine, trying to distract herself from the thoughts of her family.She had received a phone call from an unknown number, who said it was her mother.

Even as she flipped through the magazine, her mind was far away.A sudden knock on the door startled her from her thoughts. She was not expecting anyone, or could it be Ivan?

Her breath caught in her throat as she looked at their familiar faces, both of them looking a little older than

"Ivan, I would advise that you stay away from me. For once, let me be!" She said, casting a final glare at him before she walked out.Ivan watched her leave like there was no hope and little to nothing he could do about it. What had gotten into her? Did her parents not just give them their blessings? Could it have been a curse?He tried to search for the possible dots to connect to her behavior, but he had not done anything wrong to her.With a frustrated sigh, he decided to obey her instruction and stay away from her.The next day, he was out of the house, earlier than usual. He did that to avoid her, going to work to bury himself until it was late at night when he was sure that she was asleep.It happened for a couple of days, but even if Ivan wanted to ignore her, his heart was still troubled, especially because he could not tell what she was going through."Princess, I need to talk to you," he said, barging in, frustratingly."What's wrong?"
