Caleb Sawyer was an old neighbor to the Leinharts while he was growing up, while he was in middle school, they had to move abroad due to some Situation in his family.He had a bitter- sweet history with the Leinharts, they were the reason he left the country in the first place. His family had to struggle to adapt in a new place. After his parents passed away in an accident , things worsened for him. He worked hard and made up his mind that he was going to come back to where he is from regardless of the situation that made him leave the country.Seeing Melissa the first day at work wasn’t such a pleasant sight for him. It only caused memories to come rushing. Melissa was surprised to see Caleb standing in front of her, never in her life would she have expected him to show up in front of her. She had met a different person when she came to punish the photos about Mia.Well, he said he was the new CEO so it made sense. Caleb was her old crush, her first love but he was one of the peopl
“What just happened now?” Melissa yelled after him. She noticed the change in Caleb’s face as Logan whispered into his ears. “What do you mean?” “What did you just tell Caleb? Why did he look so lost after you left?”“It would have been more convenient for you if you had asked him directly, Miss Melissa, I am no mind reader so it is impossible for me to know what is up with him.” Logan chuckled. “I know you said something to him, that was what made him change his face.”“Even if I told him something that made him change his face, I suppose you should know what it is.”“It is about Mia, right? I am glad she is married to a poor and stupid bum like you. That way he has only me to himself.” Melissa muffled a little smile to herself. “He is all mine.” She grinned at him A sports car stopped beside them and she opened the door, Mike Nelson was visible at the driver’s side, Melissa got in, “See you around local bim and Thank you for being with my cousin.” she yelled as Mike Nelson zoome
Mia woke up to her phone blasting with notifications, “am I in trouble again?” She uttered to herself as she pulled the sheets to cover her naked body properly. Her husband was lying besides naked in his full glory, she palmed her face, “how did we get here?” She sighed as the scene reminded of the day she met him. The only difference was that she didn’t scream when she woke her up. Her phone did the screaming anyway. She grabbed it and she saw multiple texts from her assistants then one from her grandpa’s butler, she opened Nella’s texts first, “Good morning ma’am. There are no signs of the previous news they publish about you. The broadcasting company sent their apology too.” “Great news, I hope aunt did not scold you for coming in late last night?” She replied then she opened the butler’s text. “Hello, Young miss, Lord Leimhart would like to speak to you this morning, Please call him before his flight leaves by 12pm.” Mia sighed and she dialed her grandfather’s number immedi
Logan opened his eyes as soon as she walked out the room. He felt so refreshed about the last night, it was the first time in a long time that he slept without hearing gunshots in his dreams. Though he was unable to sleep all night because of his wife who kept going at it throughout the night. The energy he got from her was just like from the day he met her, he could feel her anger from the way they were doing it. A part of him started feeling like she used him, the two times that they had done it, she was not in a good mood. Both times, she had initiated the sex. He was curious about why Caleb had called his wife, which made her rush to tear his clothes and get out instead of going to get her own clothes. Logan loved that she wore his clothes, one thing about his wife was that she was very fashionable. He got up and took a shower, then he grabbed his wallet then took a Cab following Mia. He could tell her location because attached to his clothes are chips so that his coordina
“Where have you been Mia?” Logan asked politely. “You don’t work on days like today.”“Is it in our contract to get into each other's business?” She replied to him coldly then she brought out the food in the freezer from the previous night to heat up.While she was seeing Caleb she couldn't bring herself to eat anything, she had this bitter feeling on her tongue throughout. After meeting with him, she had to go to the company to clear her head by finishing off the tasks that came from her mom’s office.She didn’t even ask Nella to come in with her because she needed to be alone and get over the fact that she had to sit in front of Caleb then she closed out before it was too late to catch a cab.If her grandfather had not taken her cars from her, she would have spent more time in the office and she didn’t leave a word with any one, she didn’t want Logan to contact Nella. She felt guilty for overtaking her poor friend and secretary over the week.“This is just a normal and casual thi
“It is funny to run into here,” Melissa cackled as if she didn’t come to the gym around his house on purpose.Since she had met Caleb at his office. She put out some men to tail him so that they could find his address. Melissa was a meticulous and cunning person who will do anything to get what she wants.“Good morning, Leimhart, I believe that the gym in the Leinhart’s villa is comfortable and more equipped that the one here, it is really funny to run into you here.” Caleb answered her.He knew how Melissa was, she obviously came with a purpose, from the information he knew about the Leinhart, the children stay in the Villa till they get married for maximum protection. Even after marriage some of them still choose to remain in the villa. He knew she wasn;t living around there so if she lied about it, that means she came after him.He didn’t mind because he wanted to have a talk with her anyway.“I believe the Villa is so far away from this area, I wonder how you were able to come h
Mike arrived at the Nelson’s mansion, He was welcomed with a slap from his grandfather, “Where the hell have you been?”Lord Nelson was pissed, they had been going through crises and his grandson was absent throughput.“Don’t tell me you have been hanging out with the other Leinhart girl. What good is she going to do to us? Our family needed their funds and you wasted the time I gave you on that girl that didn’t add any value to our family.”“Time has not gone, I can still get Mia to myself and they will invest in his.” Mike said as he rubbed his face.Lord Nelson was about to hit him again when his personal guard held him back.“If you were not my blood, I would have asked someone here to gun you down and I won’t think about it twice. The Leinhart are fully supported by the top agent who used to have our back, what use do we have for now.” Lord Nelson yelled at him.Mike ran his hand through his hair. “Why would they leave us?”“We are even in bigger trouble, their agent is attackin
Days after Logan and Mia’s argument….“My wife forgot to take her food to work.” Logan walked in with a lunch pack.He had gone back to pick something up then he saw that Mia had forgotten her food at home. The driver he assigned to take her to work had confirmed that he had dropped her off at work.“I will finally get to eat your hand made food,” Sam squealed like a little girl as he attempted to take the food box from Logan.“What are you trying to do?” he smacked his hand away. “I need you to take it to her company.”“Sir, they serve top notch food at her company, I am sure she doesn’t need this.” Sam tried to convince him but Logan glared at him.“You are lucky that I do not want to take it to her because of the little fight that we had.” Logan said. “You should stand in for me in bad times like this, i will go through the pointers that you have left for me in the files and find the culprit for us.”“I don’t think that will be the only thing I want from you.” Sam said with a shee
It had been months since Logan and Mia had time to truly relax. Logan’s responsibilities at his family’s company had multiplied as he guided it toward new heights, while Mia was immersed in her work with the non-profit organization and preparing for medical school. Despite their busy lives, they made sure to spend precious moments together, late-night dinners, quiet walks, and shared laughter, but those moments felt all too fleeting.Logan’s parents, Charles and Evelyn, noticed the strain on both their son and his wife. They’d come to adore Mia, who had blended seamlessly into the family with her warmth, strength, and kindness. Even Mia’s parents and grandfather saw the need for Logan and Mia to recharge. That’s when the idea sparked between the two families during a casual afternoon tea: a surprise trip for Logan and Mia, a retreat where they could unwind, reconnect, and indulge in some long-overdue relaxation.Working together, the parents crafted the perfect plan. They chose a ch
As Yuki took his first steps away from the agency, a whirlwind of mixed emotions swept over him. Years of dedication and relentless training had defined his life, shaping him into one of the agency's most skilled operatives. However, after everything that had happened, especially the danger his close friends and allies faced, he realized he wanted a life beyond the shadows. The long nights spent looking over his shoulder, the constant need for vigilance, and the weight of secrets had finally pushed him to seek a new beginning.Logan, understanding Yuki’s silent turmoil, didn’t hesitate to support his decision. On Yuki’s last day at the agency, Logan met him for a quiet lunch at their favorite little bistro downtown. The two men sat across from each other, each one keenly aware of the new phase ahead. Logan, now fully entrenched in leading his family’s company, and Yuki, ready to step into a world he barely recognized but deeply craved. As their plates were cleared, Logan handed Yuki
The atmosphere in the grand Leinhart mansion had shifted, a quiet tension settling into every corner as Lord Leinhart’s health waned. He had been the pillar of their family, guiding them through turbulent times with a firm yet caring hand. Now, his movements were slower, and his powerful voice often softened with an underlying fatigue that didn’t go unnoticed by those closest to him. His children and grandchildren had tried to pretend everything was as it had always been, but they couldn’t ignore the lingering fear that he might be preparing to say his final goodbyes.One afternoon, Lord Leinhart summoned his family to the study. It was a room filled with memories of past achievements, marked by framed accolades and family portraits hanging on the walls. The room was intimate yet regal, his presence radiating an authority that had commanded respect for decades. As family members trickled in, the atmosphere grew tense. Mia, Melissa, and other key family members waited, each wondering
Logan’s transition from the agency to the corporate world wasn’t without challenges. His father, Charles Frost, had always emphasized the importance of leadership and responsibility, and after the recent turbulence with the agency and the betrayal he’d faced, he finally understood the value of the stable legacy his father had worked so hard to build. Reluctantly at first, Logan accepted his father’s insistence to take the reins as the permanent president of the family company, but soon he was pouring his energy and determination into every project, every strategy, and every partnership. Charles had seen in Logan a vision that was ambitious and future-driven, and he wanted that vigor to push their company into new frontiers. Logan took on the challenge with both respect for the legacy his father had created and a passion for redefining what they could achieve. Within months, Logan’s influence was apparent. He fostered partnerships with promising startups, invested in sustainable ene
Alexander Wang had been planning this moment for weeks, every detail mapped out with an intensity that reflected the depth of his feelings. It wasn’t just about the proposal, it was about redemption, healing, and a fresh start. He knew what Lydia, known in the spotlight as Suzy Vert, had been through. She had stood in the face of his family’s skepticism, with no shortage of harsh words or hurtful judgments. Despite it all, she’d never faltered, showing grace and strength that had ultimately won over Alexander’s heart even more than before.That evening, he led her to a quiet, lantern-lit pavilion on the family’s expansive estate. This wasn’t just any garden; it was the same place where she’d been met with icy receptions and side-eyed glances. He had chosen it deliberately. The blossoms were in full bloom, and the warm scent of jasmine floated in the air, adding a touch of magic to the setting. Lydia held her baby, bundled in soft blankets, as they walked. She had no idea what Alexa
Sam had always harbored the desire to leave his position as an agent, yearning for a life beyond the shadows and endless fieldwork. The agency’s lifestyle had worn on him, filling him with scars both physical and emotional. So when he handed in his resignation, he felt an unexpected mix of relief and anticipation, as if he were finally stepping into the life he had been waiting for. Logan had been supportive, congratulating him with a genuine smile and a handshake that held unspoken gratitude. After everything they’d been through, Logan knew how much Sam deserved this next chapter.Not long after, Sam was contacted by Logan’s father, Chairman Frost, with an opportunity he couldn’t refuse. Chairman Frost had taken notice of Sam’s loyalty, and he was impressed by the integrity Sam had shown throughout his years as an agent. Besides, he was like his own son now.As a reward, Chairman Frost extended an offer that aligned perfectly with Sam’s aspirations, a position as president of on
Melissa had never imagined her life would come to this moment, a second chance. As she stepped out of jail, the sky looked a little brighter, the air felt fresher, and for the first time, she felt the weight of her choices lift, just a little. A special pardon had been granted, and rather than relief, a wave of determination washed over her. She couldn’t erase the mistakes she’d made, but she could make sure her future was different. This was her opportunity to rewrite the narrative, and she wasn’t going to squander it.One of the conditions of her pardon was to complete a rehabilitation program. At first, the idea of “rehabilitation” sounded restrictive, but the time in therapy opened her eyes in ways she hadn’t anticipated. She spent hours unpacking her resentments, her jealousy toward Mia, her need to prove herself, and the misguided sense of entitlement that had led her down a dark path. Bit by bit, she began to peel away layers of bitterness, acknowledging the pain and insecu
Charles Frost sat alone in his study, the dim light casting long shadows across the room. The weight of the secrets he carried weighed heavily on him, pressing down with each beat of his heart. His son, Logan, had no idea of the extent to which Charles had been aware of the memory loss conspiracy or the threats that came with it. Charles had watched quietly from the sidelines, keeping close tabs on the unfolding events, hoping that his silence was enough to keep his family safe. Though Logan had confronted the members of the panel and brought charges against them, Charles knew that the details went deeper than his son might have suspected. From the first time he’d heard whispers of a “memory-altering operation,” Charles had taken quiet but decisive action. He didn’t involve his wife, fearing the panic and worry it would stir. She cherished Logan, and the mere thought of such betrayal from those within their circle would devastate her. Charles was also relieved that Logan hadn’t
[These last ten chapters will cover how everyone moved on and a little bit of backstory]Mia closed the door to her office, pausing to take one last look around. After years of leading the LH Group, the spacious corner office, once filled with the bustling energy of meetings, conference calls, and late-night strategy sessions, felt strangely silent. She had always thought she’d grow old here, carrying on her family’s legacy. But somewhere along the way, the responsibilities, the corporate dealings, and the constant pressure had worn her down. Stepping back from her CEO position was a decision she hadn’t made lightly, but she knew in her heart it was the right one.The past few months have been transformative. Her near-death experience and the fallout with Melissa had led her to reassess her life and her priorities. She wanted a new purpose, one rooted not in corporate power, but in making a genuine difference. That’s what drew her to the idea of joining a non-profit organization fo
