Lost in thoughts in his mother's hospice room, Andi felt a hand touch his and he snapped out of his thoughts.

Met by his mother's weak smile, he smiled back, one only brighter than his mother's by a little.

"Are you alright?" She asked him in a meek tone and Andi nodded his head. "Are you perhaps... Thinking about what your father's personal assistant told us?"

He smiled and sat next to her on the bed. "I went to see her this morning and she told me some... Things. But mom, what do you think about all of this?"

She squeezed his hands gently in hers. "You've been through a lot my dear Andi, you might not tell me yourself but I am more than aware of how difficult it has been to fend for your mouth alone, talk of both of us.

"And I want you to be happy, I want you to take care of yourself, I don't ever want to see you suffering. And you are my son and I know that you have always been looking forward to heading the company one day."

"But mom," Andi said softly. "If the world learns

    The home of the Simmons was extra lively that Friday morning. They all gathered at the dining table to enjoy a nice meal with their soon to be son in law, Justin Rivera. "I hope you find the meal to your taste, my dear." Sharon Simmons asked Justin with a gentle smile on her face.Justin's lips spread into a smile. "Of course, mom. You are exceptionally a great cook." Sharon chuckled softly. "Oh you flatter me too much. You should come by more often, I'll make you more and more tasty meals." He nodded his head. "I'll do that a lot." They all shared a laugh and continued to eat in silence. Justin suddenly turned to his father in law and asked. "Right, Mr Simmons, have you heard about the new company opening up in the city? Zeus I think." "Oh of course!" The man replied. "Every business man in the city has heard about them. Apparently, they are quite known even though they are just opening." "Yes. I heard from a close friend that they used to be a paper company and they were based

    Painted in all white, Andi Emerson's apartment stood taller than every other that was close by. Its compound was enough to contain about four extravagant buildings and still there would be space for a compound. An entire part was only decorated with a large blue swimming pool and trees like that of a tropical island. Another place looked like a house on its own except it was meant for cars. The parking lot would contain about forty cars or more. Andi didn't understand why Lucy Lieu would buy such a house and call it a comfortable small apartment. Sure, the place he lived before was large, if he wished to not see his parents while still living under the same roof as them, he could have done so. This place was definitely too large for a man living alone. With several bedrooms and three different living rooms. He had no use of all of those things. But growing up in a mansion, a castle! He knew he wouldn't feel uncomfortable staying at that house. Indeed, it would be comfortable for

    A black Bentley parked at the parking space of Eternal Love-- a popular jewelry store. It was said that any wedding rings purchased from there brought eternal love to the couple-- and a handsome young man stepped down from the driver's seat. Pulling his coat properly over his shoulders, he walked to the other side of the car and opened the door to the passenger's seat. A black high heel kissed the earth as Taylor stepped down. A red mini dress clung on to her curvy body and her hair was let loose over her shoulders. Slamming the door gently, she and her fiancé-- Justin-- walked hand in hand into the jewelry store. All eyes fell on the flamboyant couple as they walked in and a few people who recognized them broke into hushed murmurs. Taylor loved the attention and what she loved more was the special treatment from the manager. "Ms Simmons," the slim and petite female manager smiled from ear to ear as she approached them. "It is so lovely to have you here. Thank you for choosing

    Silence engulfed the shop as the buyers turned into onlookers to know how the story was going to end. Taylor pulled the petite manager closer to her side. "I believe no introduction is needed to let you know who he is. He isn't a good person and he is very poor now. He must be so desperate that he decided to come in here and steal one or two items, knowing well that he could make a fortune from selling them." "That isn't true!" Lucy yelled out angrily. "None of that is true. We came here together to purchase a gift because we know you sell quality!""Who will you believe?" Taylor asked. "That complete stranger-- that for all we know, she could be an accomplice-- or me? I could have sworn I saw him trying to tuck an earring into his pocket earlier." The manager looked from one woman to another. Andi was already poor so she had no reason to be good to him but she couldn't afford to get on the bad side of Taylor Simmons, especially with her fast approaching wedding with Justin Rivera.

    Taylor's eyes widened in shock and disbelief. She felt her throat tighten as she choked trying to swallow her own saliva. Murmurs from the other people in the jewelry store filled the place and she could hear most of them calling her shameless. “She must be out of her mind, look at everything he bought yet she called him a thief.”“Can she even afford to pay that amount without batting an eye?” “Does she even have such money? I heard rumors from my cousin that their business is struggling because he used to be the one to fund them.” “Poor boy, he probably went bankrupt because of her and her greedy family.” Her ears burnt as all of those words floated past them. How dare they talk about her like that in her presence? Had they suddenly forgotten that Andi lived off of her family after he went bankrupt? He was the one that deserved to be insulted! Not her! Or at least that was how she felt. “I'm waiting!” Andi demanded in a tone hinted with anger. “I didn't do anything when you a

    Taylor sat on her bed with her fingernail in her mouth, biting nervously on it. She had been thinking about Andi all afternoon and it was finally bed time but she still couldn't take him off of her mind. Was he rich now? Did he take some kind of loan to sustain himself? But who would give a loan of millions to someone like Andi who didn't have any way of paying it back in the next two decades to come! Or was it that woman? The one with him earlier. She must be some rich woman who gave him money to spend lavishly. Maybe she was his rich girlfriend even though she looked quite young. Younger than him. But that face, she had seen that woman's face before. Somewhere. But where? Had they met by chance before or was she just someone she bumped into in the streets?“Ah this is so annoying!” She yelled angrily. “What the hell did he do to get such money and where is that woman from?!” She heard a knock on the door and she growled. “Who is it?!” The door pushed open and Mable walked in. “

    The mood was very lively that evening. Several men and women of different businesses had accepted the invitation to attend the opening ceremony of Zeus company and others who felt like attending as well were there. Lucy Lieu had been giving charge over the ceremony as the manager of the company and she attended to everyone and answered their questions. She was dressed beautifully in a silver off shoulder knee high dress with a pair of black heels. Her neck was bare of any jewelry but silver thin earrings dropped from her ear with black diamonds at the bottom. One of the jewelry Andi had gifted her. Her hair was packed neatly in a ponytail that reached her back and diamond rings decorated two of her fingers. She only applied lipstick and a little powder to her face. She was beautiful without make up anyway. Few people were surprised to see her as they recognized her as The missing Mr Emerson’s secretary and personal assistant. Now that she was the manager of Zeus limited, they fou

    Taylor looked up at her fiancé's face and saw him gaping. “Honey!” She whispers harshly. “What are we going to do? She is that woman with my failure ex husband! Do you think they are dating?”“Obviously not.” He responded sharply. “She didn't interfere while we spoke to Andi, obviously, it was because he was none of her business. They might have been together at the store but no girlfriend will stay quiet and watch her boyfriend being scorned. Probably she loaned him a huge sum of amount out of pity.”Her fiancé's speculation seemed to make sense. “Why didn't I think of that before?” Taylor questioned herself. “It makes perfect sense. That poor church rat tried to fool us back there and embarrass us, he should pay for his mistake.” “And he will.” There was confidence in Justin's voice. “Just leave that to me. I made myself clear to him that it wasn't over and that I would pay him back for what he did to us. Don't worry.” Taylor grinned confidently with a nod of affirmation. She trus

    Andi woke up with a tired yawn. He had spent the entire night going through files about his company and only got a few hours of sleep. He went to the kitchen to make himself a cup of coffee. Lucy was already there, making herself some warm tea to drink. She was putting on a small short and a white spaghetti arm singlet. Her bottom and thighs were revealed. Andi walked up to her and pressed himself against her while hugging her waist. “Good morning my love.” He muttered against her ear with a kiss. She smiled. “Morning. I thought to make you some tea to replenish your strength.” “How thoughtful of you. Thank you.” He kissed her cheek. “Did you sleep well?”“Next to you, I always sleep well.” She responded while turning the content of a cup with a small spoon. His hand trailed inside her singlet and caressed her soft small breast. “I'm glad to hear that. Likewise. Shouldn't you be resting up though?”“I'm fine. This tea will replenish the strength for all the sleep you missed out

    Justin's brow arched, his smile disappearing into the blink of an eye. He scoffed a laugh and buried his hands in the depth of his pocket. “You would like to call it quits after two months into the marriage? Months? Not years honey, months!” “Do you think I want to?” She asked him. “Oh so this is my fault?” He took a hand out of his pocket and pressed it on his chest as he asked her. “Yes, Justin!” She angrily responded. “You had sex with my biological sister!” She pointed at Mable as she lamented. “You told her you love her!”“She is a tool. That's all she is.” He plainly responded. “Oh, you mean a tool just like me?” Her brow arched. “Yeah, I'm tired of all these tools you keep talking about. I will no longer be your tool, Justin.” She stated firmly. “Oh trust me, you won't. For the next nine months at least. Sorry you're too months gone already so for the next seven months.” He walked towards the bed with one hand in his pocket as he talked. “What are you talking about?” Her

    Taylor's eyes shone with surprise and shame. She wanted to teach her sister a lesson for messing with her in such a terrible way but Justin decided to disgrace her like that. “Are you calm now?” He asked her with an arched brow. “Do you need another one?”She stared confusedly at him. “What is the meaning of this? Justin, what is the meaning of this?! For other reasons, you can hit me, but not for this.” “Taylor, you're pregnant.” She squinted. “That I already know, why are you telling me?” Her brow subconsciously arched. Mable's jaw dropped. *You're pregnant?!”Both Taylor and Justin ignored her like she wasn't standing there. Justin continued. “What do you expect me to do? Have sex with you while you're carrying my baby? What if something happens to the baby?” “Justin,” Taylor scoffed a laugh. “I am pregnant, I am not dying! Besides, a pregnant woman needs to have sex too! It helps delivery become a little easier.”“You could get hurt!” He lashed out and she flinched at the ab

    Justin and Mable flinched apart at the sound of her scream but rather than looking apologetic, Justin looked angry and Mable had a look on her face that said she didn't care. "J--J--Ju--Justin--""What are you doing here?!" Justin snapped at her. "Why the hell are you here?""Wha--I--" she stuttered. Her emotions were worse than a train wreck, she didn't even understand how she was feeling. Justin climbed off the bed and pushed her out of the room. "Get out! Get out!! You are ruining my mood by acting like a fool! How dare you interrupt my orgasm?!" "But... Justin!" Before she could talk, he slammed the door in her face and locked the door. "Come here baby!" She heard her sister exclaim. "Drive me crazy with your mad skills." She heard Justin's evil chuckle and almost immediately, they began moaning and screaming out of explicit pleasure. Tears poured down Taylor's face where she stood. She struggled with the door but it wouldn't budge. "Justin, please stop! Justin please!" "O

    ∆55: She screamed

    They had said goodbye to Joel and Ryan after Pearl forced them to stay in time for dinner. She had prepared one of her delicious meals and they all enjoyed the food together. Andi was sitting in his study, a pair of reading glasses hung on top of his nose and his eyes were fixed on the papers in his hand. He had changed into something to sooth the cool night. A grey T-shirt and a baggy ash colored pants. His hair was a messy curls in a handsome way. A hand touched his shoulder and he looked to see Lucy standing behind him. She was putting on a bogus white top and white underwear. A smile touched her face as he looked up at her. He touched her hand with his and squeezed it softly. "Why aren't you asleep?" He asked her with his eyes returned to the paper in his hand."I could ask you the same." She walked over to a chair opposite his and sat down. "Everything okay?""Yeah, just going over some things..." He sat up straight and the paper file in his hand dropped to the table. "Hey, w

    Andi heaved a sigh as he took off his suit jacket. The day had given him no break or proper rest and all he wanted to do was fall into his bed and sleep till the next day's afternoon but he couldn't because Joel along side Ryan were both waiting in the living room. He heaved another sigh as his fingers ran through his hair before walking out of his master bedroom and joining the two. "Uncle! Bro! Thank you for coming to see me so late in the night." He smirked as he spoke."Ha ha ha," Joel faked a laugh. "I know you are displeased that we are ruining your night with your wife but still, we would have left ages ago if you hadn't left us to do your billionaire people only interview." Andi rolled his eyes and relaxed into his seat. "Ha! Nice one. I just wanted to sort some things and you know, do it for my fiancée." Lucy walked in just then, still in her tight mini dress and high heels. A tray sat on top of her hand and standing on it was a bottle of whiskey and three serving glasse

    ∆53: Broken shards

    Staring at their large TV, Taylor found herself wishing she could walk through screens. All she found herself thinking was 'he needs a hug right now and I should be there to give him one'She didn't care if it killed her to think that but if she could do it, she would. Not caring what Justin would do to her later. Was that part of the punishment Carla was talking about? She thought back to a time where something business related got Andi angry and upset. After expressing his anger, he just sat in his seat with a cold expression just like the one he had on TV. She still pretended to care then or did she really care?She had walked up to him and wrapped her arms around him like a baby and placed his head on her chest. Gently, she patted his back until he was feeling better. It was unexpected for him and even she didn't know why she had done it then but that very day, he stared into her eyes with so much affection. His lips curved into a smile and he stared into her eyes and he looked

    "When I started working for the Emerson family, I felt so honored that I thought I would explode with honor." Lucy started. "Then one day, Mr Kaleb Emerson introduced me to his family. His wife, Mrs Pearl Emerson, was and still is an angel in a human body. She was so nice to me. And then I saw his handsome young man with a slightly stern countenance. I would be lying if I said I wasn't smitten."Cameron chuckled. "I think if we are all being honest, Mr Andi Emerson has the looks no other man on this earth possesses. He is too handsome."Andi only chuckled softly in response. Lucy continued. "He shook my hand and told me to feel at home and then he left for school. We were both so young then. Years went by and we got to know each other better. I had fallen for him then and after so many years, when I thought about confessing my feelings to him-- whatever his response would have been-- my mother introduced me to a sweet man and he had been introduced to the Simmons for an arranged marr

    ∆51: I.N interview

    A deep wine red dress clung tightly onto Lucy's body. Its strand for arms hung onto her shoulders and the hem of the dress was half way down her thigh. Her cleavage was revealed from the low square shaped front of the dress and her fair hands were shining. Her lengthy brown hair was parted in the middle and let loose to fall down her back and golden rectangular earrings dropped from her ear. Her collarbone was slightly outlined with make-up and her neck remained bare of any jewelry. Wrapping around her marriage finger was a diamond encrusted ring and on the index of her other hand was a thin gold ring. Dark red bracelets like her dress except a shade deeper wrapped around her hand twice like a thin tree branch and her nails were neatly trimmed and bare of any colors. Her thin eyes were outlined with a black liner and her cheeks were slightly pinked with blush. Her small lips bore a slightly deep fuchsia pink color. Andi crouched down on one knee in his deep blue green shade of su
