When Carter returned to the mansion, he was greeted by his wife who was waiting for him to return. Merideth also just got home from meeting Julie and Uncle Ben at the park. No one noticed that she left, her husband and mother-in-law forbade her to go outside alone so she's careful when going outside."What's wrong? Why do you look stressed?" Merideth took off his clothes, she took a towel to wipe her husband's sweat. "I'm going to rest first love, I have a tough day," Carter said sitting on the sofa, while Merideth just hugging on his back, We'll talk later when I'm in a good state of mind." "Sure. Take a rest honey, you're gonna be okay," she said calmly and Carter held her hand in his belly. "Thank you for being here my love, I love you," he whispered and Merideth kissed his right cheek. She assisted him to move, she lies him down on the spacious comfortable bed. "I love you more. Just relax okay, I'll cook food for our dinner later," she left the room and went to the kitchen whe
Merideth was wondering who was the person who victimized her, but she had no idea who it was and she even tried to investigate inside the company. She didn't find any leads but she found out about Oliver and Carter being siblings which surprised her. Merideth couldn't understand what reason why the person who blackmailed her had to do that. She feels that someone hates Oliver, so she used to get revenge on him, but she remembered no one knows about their relationship. They just hid their relationship due to policies in the company that ex-coworker isn't allowed to. "Meri..." Carter was talking in his sleep. Merideth caresses his hair, smiling. Even though Merideth was going through a difficult time, Carter came into her life. She didn't regret marrying someone she didn't know well. She also fell in love with Carter who takes good care of her and does her duty as a husband. Carter might be arrogant but he will take care of the one he loves, he's overprotective and territorial, and won
It was the month of February, and Valentine's day is coming the trio prepared for that occasion for their valentine's day sale in the shop."Do you have a date this February 14?" Adam asked Julie who arranged the bouquets. "Nah. You know we're very busy at work Adam, we don't have time to enjoy our love life," she pouted, then focused on decorating inside while Adamson was like a dog that was following on her back. "We can enjoy it if we give it a try. Would you mind if I'll take you as my date?" Julie turned to him with a poker face. "Are you serious? I'm the one you choose to date? C'mon look around, there are other better girls you can mess with," "And why not you? And to clarify, I'm not messing with you okay? I'm just inviting you to a friendly date," he said. Julie has no interest in other men but she was waiting for a specific person to take her on a date. "Sorry, Adam but I'm too busy. We have a lot of things to fix this week. Just find another available person," she apolo
Oliver has a delivery to a customer online. He placed the orders for the pastries on the motorcycle Adam lent him. The customer's location is a bit far but there's no traffic so he can easily go there. While he was driving, a red car sped up on the other side and almost ran him over."What the hell!" His soul was almost torn from his body in sheer shock. He fell off the motorcycle but was not injured because he was wearing safety gear and a helmet. The red Lamborghini stopped when a traffic enforcer stopped him. Oliver slowly stood up even though his left leg hurt. He approached the fancy car and he didn't expect to see a man when he opened the window. "Carter??" He looked at his stepbrother who raised his shades. "Who are you?" Carter couldn't recognize him because of his black helmet so he took it off."Oh! It's you Oliver? Wow. You're a delivery rider now?" "Jerk. Did you see the red light? So why are you speeding?!" Oliver was pissed off. "Sorry I thought it was green," Carter
"Carter was mad knowing that Adamson gave reports on me about what he was doing in the company. He thought that I believed Adamson more than his reasons. I was fair to both sides, there were only issues with the workers in the company and we fixed it little by little," When the CEO returned to the company, Adam and his son Carter had conflicts. "Yeah Adam shared about it, it's a big problem that needs to be resolved. I was just surprised when he informed me he resigned, I was wondering if something bad happened to him," Oliver knew that his friend would not leave for no big reason. "Don't worry, I'll give him some time to think about it." His dad opened the box that he delivered, he saw that the cake inside was damaged. "Sorry if I ruined it," Oliver apologized. "No, it's fine. This still looks delicious," Mr. Thompson licking the cake icing on his finger."You're now leaving?" His dad noticed that he stood up. "Yeah. I still have deliveries to other customers, there are a lot of
Silence engulfed them both. Oliver's heavy feelings for his father will not go away immediately, he still needs a long time to heal. Moving on is a long process he needs to take. "A day will come when I will no longer be a vagabond. Life is indeed unfair. It is difficult to live in the world to be a poor person. Only the rich can get enjoy life while they also step on poor creatures. The poor one also has the right to be respected, heard, and treated right," Even if Oliver wants to fight for his dignity, he can't please everyone because he has no place in the world unless he reveals that he is the son of a rich man. "This is how the world is, son, there's an inequality between the rich and poor. Money, popularity, and your status in life are the basis for people to respect you. If you don't have those things, then they will look down on you," the CEO said taking a deep breath, "You're respectable as you're my son. It's your choice not to tell anybody, but once the world will know we
The CEO has a big plan for his sons to have unity to save his family's legacy. But the big problem is, they can't get along, so he must find a way while it's early before he disappears from the world and he can leave them behind and become a responsible heir to his business. Mr.Thompson cleared his mind full of thoughts, and he focused on the main topic which was about his mission for his son, "I already planned something big with you two from the beginning because you are the last remaining Thompsons alive, I am not immortal to live long, a time will come that I'll pass away cause I'm old and everything that our clans started will be left to the two of you," guys remained silent with their arms crossed, obviously uninterested but both were curious about what challenge was prepared for them. "You have three missions and you will do them whether you want it or not, as I've said you're both a Thompson and you can't escape it unless you surrender and be killed," he walked near a comput
The third mission of their father for them is to give him grandchildren. It was his dream to experience having grandchildren, and Carter and Oliver could give him that. "If I give you a grandson, should I also marry a rich woman?" Oliver asked his father. "You can marry anyone, it's up to you who is the woman you will be with forever to bear children. I have no problem with that. I will not force you to give me a grandchild right away, if only one of you is ready then I'll be glad but if you're not ready to become a father, no pressure," he answered. "T-that's good, having children is fun but in my situation. I'm not ready to settle down especially since I'm starting over. I'll just stick with the second mission and I'll help to find that kidnapper," Having a family was also a dream of Oliver but it disappeared when Merideth, his first love who is now Carter's wife, left him. He looked at his brother who will have a child with his ex-girlfriend in the future. "Since I'm already ma
