Peter drove through the busy streets of Arctic City, the weight of his decision pressing on him. As he sped the car, he replayed the conversation with Maya in his mind. He glanced at the rear view mirror, catching a glimpse of Davin’s laughter, his easy confidence reflecting on his face. He had recounted all that happened between Maya at their last meeting to his Boss. “Did you hear her?” Davin chuckled, leaning back in his seat. “Maya really thinks I am a man she could get at whenever it pleases her, right?”Peter forced a smile, but inside, he felt a storm brewing. “Yeah, it’s surprising how far some people will go to feel important.”Davin glanced sideways, sensing something amiss. “What’s on your mind? You seem a bit off today… is there something else you didn’t tell me?” he asked playfully. “...Just thinking about how people can surprise you,” Peter replied, keeping his tone light. “Like Maya. She’s got this whole thing in her mind, I wonder who eats her cake and gets it back.”

The atmosphere in The Pinnacles Spot shifted dramatically as police officers also approached Maya. Laughter and casual conversation fell silent, and the air became thick with tension. Every gaze turned toward her, and she felt the weight of shame that settled on her face.Maya’s heart raced, a torrent of fear and humiliation surging through her. Just moments ago, she had felt a rush of ecstasy, the thrill of executing her plan to bring down Davin’s business. Now, that exhilaration evaporated, replaced by a stark reality that threatened to swallow her whole.“Madam, we need to talk!,” one of the officers said, his tone flat and devoid of sympathy.“I haven’t done anything wrong!” she protested, but her voice trembled, revealing the panic rising within her.Davin stepped forward, his presence overwhelming. Anger flickered in his eyes, mingled with disappointment. “Did you really think you could get away with trying to bribe Peter?” he demanded, his voice low and menacing. “You thought y

The dream of outsmarting Davin and proving herself now felt like a distant fantasy, one that had led her straight into a nightmare.Minutes turned into hours as she stared at the stark, cold floor, grappling with each choice she had made. The thrill of ambition had transformed into a suffocating reality. Each moment of defiance against Davin echoed in her mind, a constant reminder of her failures.

Instead, she had become a pawn in a game she thought she could control.The sound of footsteps outside her cell startled her, pulling her from her spiraling thoughts.

The gala hall buzzed with an electric energy as attendees mingled, their laughter and conversations weaving a tapestry of ambition and aspiration. Davin adjusted his tie, the fabric a sharp contrast against the tailored navy suit he wore. It was more than just clothing. It was armour, a symbol of his fame as he prepared for the impending debate with Collins. The leader of the Newfolds Consortium. As he surveyed the room, he caught sight of familiar faces, investors, industry leaders, and journalists, all eagerly anticipating the exchange that would unfold. He could almost hear their whispers of curiosity and speculation, each of them wondering how this confrontation would play out. It was a double-edged sword; on one hand, he had the opportunity to reclaim his narrative, but on the other, there was the looming presence of Helen, his wife. Would she be watching? Would she understand?The moderator, a well-respected journalist known for her incisive questioning, took the stage, drawi

Would Helen see the progress he believed he had made?As the sleek vehicle pulled into the driveway of their sprawling estate, Davin took a moment to gather himself.The house loomed before him, a relegation to their success, yet it felt more like a fortress of expectations. He stepped out, adjusting his tie for the last time that evening, and walked up the stone path, each step heavy with anticipation.Inside, the air was scented with a hint of lavender, a fragrance Helen loved. The soft glow of candlelight flickered from the dining room, where a beautifully set table awaited. But the warmth of the scene contrasted sharply with the chill in his heart.

Helen and Davin both had unsaid words that lingered but they were most especially weighed down by Davin’s mother current situation. They sat at the waiting room quietly while Maya had excused herself to the cafeteria. The sedative were still kicking in Margrets’s blood stream as she slowly recovered from it, the sudden news of her sickness and then the transfer from one to hospital to another even made them question the severity of her sickness, was she deteriorating in health yet the doctors kept it a secret? Many thoughts ran through Davin’s mind, what did the nurse mean by she was only stable for a while? “Davin-I guess we should go eat something” “I am not hungry” Davin replied absentmindedly and then returning to his thought “You won’t seat there and tell me that-I won’t watch you keep thinking about thing you can’t change” Helen objected in a calm and soft way “I could changed all of this, by not allowing it to happen in the first place” Davin replied looking H

“Davin! Helen!” she called out, her voice loud enough to attract the attention of other visitors. “I heard about Mom. Is she okay?”“Maya,” Davin said, keeping his voice steady. “What are you doing here?”“I came to support my family,” she said, tilting her head slightly. “Isn’t that what family does?”Helen shot Davin a look, and he felt the tension rise between them. “Support?” he echoed, doubt lacing his tone. “Or to make sure everyone knows you’re here?”Maya laughed, a sound that felt more like a challenge. “Oh, come on. I know you’re not happy about my wedding plans, but can we not turn this into a competition? This is about Mom.”“Right. Let’s just focus on her,” Davin said, frustration boiling beneath the surface. “But don’t pretend that you aren’t looking for attention.”“Seriously, Davin?” Maya shot back, her voice sharp. “You think I’m here for a show? I’m worried about her too, you know.”“You have a funny way of showing it,” he replied, crossing his arms.“Enough,” Helen

Davin sat at the dinning table, a half-finished cup of coffee in front of him, flipping through a stack of paperwork from work. The morning sun streamed through the window, casting a warm glow, but a sense of unease gnawed at him. Just then, Helen burst into the room, her face a mix of urgency and concern.“Davin! We need to talk,” she said, her voice tight with anxiety.He looked up, instantly alert. “What’s wrong?”“It’s your mother. I just got a call from the hospital. She’s seriously ill,” Helen said, her words tumbling out in a rush. “They’re flying her out of Arctic City for specialized medication.”Davin’s heart sank. “What do you mean, ‘seriously ill’? What’s going on?”“They didn’t give me all the details, just that she needs immediate treatment,” Helen replied, her eyes brimming with concern. “They’re arranging a private jet to get her to the mainland for the best care.”“Why didn’t they call me?” he asked, rising from the table, the papers scattering as he stood.“I think t

As they finished their ice cream, Mia let out a satisfied sigh, her face smeared with chocolate and mint. Davin couldn’t help but chuckle at her delight. “You’ve got a bit of ice cream on your nose, kiddo,” he teased, reaching over with a napkin.Mia giggled, swiping at her nose with the back of her hand. “It’s part of the experience!” she declared with the seriousness of a gourmet critic. “Then I suppose I’m not allowed to clean you up,” Davin replied, exchanging a knowing glance with Helen.

The moment felt suspended in time, a perfect snapshot of happiness that Davin wished could last forever.“Let’s take a stroll down by the river after this,” Helen suggested, finishing her ice cream. “I heard they have a small arts and crafts fair set up along the walkway.”“Great idea! Mia, what do you think?” Davin

We need to do that more often,” he said, taking another sip of coffee. “It was nice to reconnect.”Helen smiled, the warmth of his words wrapping around her like a cozy blanket. “So, what’s on the agenda for today?
