FROM STREETS TO SUITES Quinn Slaps Harrison.
It was around 8:45 pm when Quinn heard a knock on the door. She glanced at Ivan, as they gave each other an inquisitive look."I'll go get the door," Ivan said, but she stretched her hand, stopping him."I'm sure it is Harrison. Don't worry about that, I will talk to him myself."Ivan nodded, and went back to his seat, while Quinn arranged her dress and walked towards the door.As she opened up, she confirmed her intuition that it was Harrison. He stood there in front of the door in his tailored suit, and his hands tucked into his pants.His face lit up as he did Quinn because it was always Ivan or Vera getting the door. He never got the chance to see her.Her face remained calm, yet there was a trace of anger visible on her face. She shut the door behind her, and crossed her arms over her chest, as she looked at him."Hi," he said, clearing his throat."What do you want?"He swallowed hard, and looked down, before glancing at her again."Quinn, I came to talk to you.""About what, Ha

Harrison reached his car and sat inside. He hit his hand hard on the wheel, as he shoved his other hand roughly into his hair.He finally drove out of the street and went home. As he got home, he met his family in the sitting room.He glanced at his wristwatch, it was almost midnight."Harrison, what is going on with you?" His father asked.Harrison did not say a word, he walked past them and stopped as he heard his mother's voice."Harrison—""Why did you do that? Why did you meet her without my knowledge?" He finally spoke up."Why should I not meet her? She cheated on you and broke your heart!" She shouted, standing her ground.He turned around, facing them. "You don't know anything about Quinn. She is not who you think she is. Yes, she cheated on me, because I thought she did. I thought she lied to me and cheated on me, and broke my heart, whereas, I was the one who broke her heart. I was the one who hurt her so badly, so you don't have to add to the pain she is already feeling."

"Sir, Yvonne Lee is the only daughter of Chief Lee of Southern Arizona. She is the only child left after her family was involved in an accident that took the life of her brother. From the information I got, Mrs. Lee and Mrs. Gerald were best friends since college." Hardy revealed.Harrison nodded, "so, this is why.""I think the two women had an agreement," Hardy added, causing Harrison to look at him in a questionable way."I mean, considering Mrs. Gerald's liking to Yvonne, she might want to join you both together, to strengthen her friendship and become business partners, as Mr. Lee owns one of the leading construction industries in one part of the Asian country." Hardy expressed.Harrison sighed, "It will never happen."For the whole day, Harrison continued working, trying to distract himself from thinking about Quinn."Good day, sir. Here is the report of the sales for last week."It was Yvonne. She was dressed in a black mini gown and transparent pantyhose coupled with white ank

Her eyes flickered, adjusting to the light from the room. She finally opened her eyes and realized that she was in the hospital.She tried to move, but Ivan held her. "Don't move, stay calm."She nodded and laid down back. She shut her eyes, enduring the pain, before opening it again. She turned to Ivan, who looked worried."Is my baby fine?" She asked.Ivan could not answer her. He did not know how to break the news to her. His silence gave her an answer already. She shook her head vehemently."No! Tell me my baby is fine!" She said, letting the tears flow."I'm sorry, Princess. I could not protect you. It was because of me you lost your baby. I'm sorry, princess," he said, holding her hands.She took in a deep breath, "Don't apologize. It is not your fault at all. He caused this, he is at fault!" She muttered, coiling her fingers into a ball."Mr. Rodriguez, please, a moment in my office." The doctor requested."I'll be back, princess." He told her and followed the doctor out.Quin

After Quinn was discharged from the hospital, Ivan and Vera took her home. "How are you feeling? Do you need anything?" Vera asked, but Quinn shook her head."Take me to the room, please," she requested.Vera nodded and helped her to the room. She laid on the bed, turning to the other side, as she curled herself up.Vera wanted to say something, but the words were not coming out of her mouth. She patted her back, and bade her goodnight, before shutting the door."I think you should give her some time," Vera said to Ivan, who tried to go into the room.He held the door knob with a strong grip, and let out a sigh."I hate that she is going through so much pain, and I cannot do anything about it. If anything happens to her, I swear I will never forgive myself. It will be a disappointment that I could not protect my sister," he expressed, leaning his forehead on the wall.Vera touched his shoulder, "we all know that you tried your best. Don't beat yourself too hard, okay?" Tears began t

Kimberly went to the office, but she did not see Harrison there. She wondered where he had gone after asking her to wait behind.She shrugged and walked down, leaving the building. She flagged a cab and entered inside."Castor Lane," she said, resting her back on the seat."Alright, ma'am." The cab driver said and began to drive along.Michael had wanted to tag along, but there was an emergency, and he had to attend to it."Extend my greetings to Quinn. I'll be back tomorrow morning," Michael texted.She smiled and texted back. "Alright, love. Take care.""We are here, ma'am." The cab driver announced."How much is it, please?" She asked, opening her purse."Ten dollars," he responded.She took out a few cash, and handed it over to him. She thanked him and stepped out.She knocked on the door, and Vera opened up."Hi, Vera!" She mouthed, sounding excited."Oh, hey," Vera responded and allowed her in."Quinn!!!" She screamed, rushing to her. She threw her hand over her neck, and hugge

"I warned you, didn't I? I told you that you would regret your existence if you ever set foot in this house. I am not Quinn, I don't have a soft heart, especially for beasts like you!" Ivan mouthed, launching at him.He sat on him, and gave him a few punches, causing blood to stream down from his nose and lips.He barely had the chance to defend himself, as Ivan kept punching him."Ivan, that's enough," Quinn said, but Ivan was not having it.He stood up and began to kick him on the side, causing him to cough out blood."I said that is enough!" Quinn yelled, seeing that Ivan was going out of control.He finally stopped, breathing heavily as he looked at Harrison in disgust."I wonder why luck is always on your side. If not for Quinn, I swear I would have killed you with my bare hands," he said, stretching his hands forward."Ivan, that's enough. Let him be. Hurting him would not change anything," she said, looking away."What? He can hurt you and go scot-free, but he cannot get hurt?

Quinn had locked herself up in the room for three days and only came out to take food to the room. She was so mad at Ivan, that she refused to talk to him."Princess, can we talk? Please," he asked, but she ignored him, taking the tray in her hand.She left the kitchen to the room and locked it from the inside.Ivan sighed, walking out of the kitchen. He placed his hands on his waist, looking at the door."I understand how you feel. Just give her some time, I'm sure she will come around," Vera said, trying to assure him."Did I do wrong?" He asked."I get it, you did that out of anger. It's normal to act that way towards someone who hurt your sister." Vera tried to give him hope.He shook his head and went out without a word. Vera sighed, sinking into the sofa. She was tired of all of the drama, and just wanted everything and everyone to be at peace as it used to be.Ivan went to the bar and ordered a bottle of beer. He wanted to clear his mind of everything that had happened in the p

Yours, Forever.
Harrison stood outside the hospital. The air was filled with the scent of freedom and relief, at last.It had been some depressing and stressful months. But tonight was different. Tonight, he felt lighter, as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders.The glass doors of the hospital slid open, and Harrison walked out, his tall frame silhouetted against the bright lights of the lobby. Harrison took a deep breath and stepped forward to Ivan. For a moment, neither of them spoke, the silence was eerie. Then, Harrison broke it."Ivan," he began, his voice steady, "I know I hurt Quinn. I know I messed up in ways I can't even begin to describe. But... I’m truly sorry."Ivan’s gaze was hard as he studied Harrison, his eyes searching for sincerity. Then, with a slow, deliberate nod, he replied, "I believe you, Harrison. And I can see how much you love my sister. Just... don’t make me regret this."Relief flooded through Harrison, and without thinking, he extended his hand. After a b
Death.
The night air was thick with tension. Harrison stood firm, his gaze locked with Jacob’s as they faced off under the dim glow of the moonlight. Jacob’s eyes gleamed with a dangerous glint, a crazed smile twitching at the corners of his lips.“So, you want one of us to die, huh?” Harrison’s voice was steady, though his heart raced wildly in his chest. “You think that’s the only way this ends?”Jacob nodded slowly, his smile widening. “Oh, I know it is. One must die for the other to live, Harrison. No way out of that. And you, Harrison, will die.”Quinn stood behind Harrison, her entire body shaking as she watched the two men. The man she loved and the man who had traumatized her in the past.Tears streamed down her cheeks as fear coiled in her stomach like a venomous snake.“Please, stop this,” she begged, her voice breaking. “Both of you, just—”Jacob laughed, a hollow, chilling sound that cut through her plea like a blade. “No more running, no more hiding. Let’s settle this once and
Back Door And Race.
The aftermath of the explosion left a thick cloud of smoke and dust settling in the air just outside the house. Harrison grabbed Quinn's hand, pulling her close as they stumbled backwards, away from the shattered window. He looked at Quinn, panic etched into his face as the sound of the phone ringing pierced through the chaos. It was Jacob again.Quinn’s eyes widened with fear as she realized how serious Jacob was. Her body trembled, and she screamed, covering her ears, trying to block out the shackles collapsing around her. Harrison watched her, his heart aching at her terror. He pulled her close, whispering reassurances, but his own fear was evident.Jacob’s voice on the other end was disturbingly calm, a contrast to the chaos he had just unleashed. “I’m warning you. Involve the police, and you’ll face more than just an explosion.”Harrison’s jaw tightened as he gripped the phone. “What do you want, Jacob?” he demanded.“I only want Quinn,” Jacob replied coolly. “And I’m giving y
Truth And Explosion.
Harrison’s voice was calm, yet filled with remorse as he recounted the painful memories that had tormented him for years. He hesitated before speaking again, his gaze fixed on the floor, avoiding Quinn’s eyes.“I’ve been carrying this guilt for a long time,” he began quietly, “ever since Stella… I wasn’t ready to be a father. I didn’t know how to deal with the situation or how to support her the way she deserved. I was reckless, neglectful even, and I regret every moment of it.”Quinn remained silent, her expression unreadable. Despite her efforts to maintain her composure, her heart tightened with sympathy and confusion.Harrison took a deep breath, exhaling slowly as if releasing a burden that had been suffocating him. “I remember that day like it was yesterday,” he continued, his voice trembling slightly. “Stella and I had an argument that morning. It wasn’t anything serious, just about trivial things and then she left the house. I didn’t think much of it. I saw her hurry up, head
Tell Me.
The drive to Quinn’s secluded apartment was silent. Ivan’s eyes stayed locked on the road, his knuckles white against the steering wheel. Beside him, Eva cradled baby Eric, her gaze drifting between the passing scenery and her husband’s hardened profile. Harrison, unbeknownst to Ivan, had followed secretly from a distance. He trailed their car cautiously, never letting it out of his sight.Quinn’s apartment was a small cottage, nestled in a deserted outskirt of the city. It was the perfect hideaway, but the isolation only made her feel more hurt. It had been almost a week since she had spoken to anyone other than her doctor and Ivan.See was not ready to see anyone, especially not her brother, but she knew they would come sooner or later.When she saw Ivan’s car pull up outside, she took a deep breath, bracing herself for what was sure to be an emotional encounter.“Quinn,” Eva greeted softly as she stepped inside, carrying baby Eric in her arms. She smiled gently, trying to mask h
Only Hope.
Harrison paced back and forth in his apartment, his phone gripped tightly in his hand. He had tried calling Quinn multiple times, only to be met with silence. Each unanswered call, each unread message fueled his frustration. He couldn’t get through to Ivan either. Everyone seemed to have locked him out. The only person he could think of now, the only one who might listen was Eva.His finger moved over her number. He knew calling her was risky. She was, after all, Ivan’s wife. But he was desperate. He needed someone to hear him out before everything goes out of control.Taking a deep breath, he pressed the call button. The phone rang twice before he heard her soft voice on the other end.“Harrison?” Eva sounded surprised. “Is everything okay?”“Eva, please—I need to see you,” he blurted out, his voice laced with desperation. “Just for a few minutes. It’s important.”She hesitated, her silence making him worried. “I don’t know, Harrison. Ivan wouldn’t like it if he found out we met.”
My Turn.
Harrison sat in the dark, his hands buried in his hair as he stared at the blinking phone screen. Quinn’s voice replayed in his mind, cold and distant.“Never call me again.”The four words had shattered him, and now he felt the pang of every secret he had kept from her. Jasmine stood beside him, her expression torn between anger and pity.“It’s not the end of the world, Harrison,” Jasmine murmured, reaching out to place a hand on his shoulder. “Quinn is angry, but if you explain—”“Explain?” Harrison cut her off, his voice laced with a bitterness that surprised even himself. “Explain what, Jasmine? That I’m a coward who let Jacob control me? That I was too scared to tell the woman I love about something that could destroy her trust in me forever?”Jasmine’s gaze softened. “It wasn’t your fault, Harrison. What happened to Stella and the baby was an accident. You know that. She knows that.”“But she doesn’t know!” Harrison exclaimed, his frustration spilling over. He stood abruptly, kn

Running Away.
Quinn’s heart felt like it had been shattered into a thousand pieces as she sped away from Harrison’s office. The images, the recordings, Jacob’s smug grin...everything played on repeat in her mind. Harrison’s face as she confronted him was burned into her memory, and it only deepened her pain. How could he have kept something like this from her? How could he have betrayed her trust so completely?When she finally pulled into Ivan’s house, she barely had the strength to get out of the car. She didn’t even need to knock before the door flew open, revealing Ivan’s concerned face. He must have known something was wrong the moment she locked herself up all night.“Princess,” he mouthed, his eyes scanning her tear-streaked face. “What happened?”Quinn’s composure broke as she launched herself into his arms, sobs racking her body. Ivan held her tight, his jaw clenched in silent fury. Whatever had caused this, he knew it had something to do with Harrison. His mind raced, imagining a hund
