He asked her.She let out a sigh as her fingers moved to rub at her temples. They massaged the spot so tenderly but that wasn't taking away the migraine that she felt."It’s just... everything is falling apart." She said while Shawn watched her. " Nicholas is thriving, and Bob... Bob is drowning in debt. I thought he was my ticket out of this mess, but he’s dragging me down with him." She said. She almost felt like crying.Shawn knew all of these, he was there

Her eyes caught the bed side stool and the orange soft glowing lamp on it, the large television hoisted against the wall just opposite the bed and the tiny shelf on the west side of the room meant for clothes. The memory of last night began to come back to her.Maya struggled to sit, it was a burdensome thing to stand so she stumbled back to the bed the instant she attempted to do so. Maya clicked on her phone and where she expected to see the time at 7:00am, she saw 10:00am. Her mouth hung open as she frantically rose and threw the sheets off from herself to reveal her bare body.

Tania had told her in the bar the other day that men change once they climb the economic ladder. God knows what man Nicholas had become.

I did not order for his arrest. If what Mr Morgan tells me is true, th

Miss Lindsay said something about you and her having a meeting booked by 3pm?” “Oh of course. Please show her in and thank you.” “You're welcome boss.” Disconnecting the call, Nicholas stared at the door as Lindsay walked in. “Hello sir.” She said as she flashed a smile at him and sat down. “Hello Lindsay. It's been quite an interesting day if you ask me?” “Oh really? Well that's nice to hear. So on the agenda for this meeting, we have to deal with some really stub–” “Morgan came in today with a proposal.” “Morgan?

I just thought that maybe I could give you a better suggestion if it was for a lover,” she mumbled the last part, looking at the floor unable to maintain eye contact with him. “It's alright,” he smiled amicably. “ I'm single.” “Then why don't you get white roses? I know red is a little too common but white is perfect as it symbolizes eternal love and loyalty,” the florist suggested. “I appreciate your suggestions but it would be so awkward to give my father white roses,” Nicholas ran his hand through his hair. “I forgot to add that I'm visiting my dad not a girl,” he added to make sure everything was clear. “I'
