Belinda began to speak: "If you could remember the first day we met..."Diana was completely floored upon hearing Belinda's first statement. She suddenly began to feel uncomfortable about the matter she was about to bring up.She had a flash in her mind of how she was intensely against Belinda on the first day they met. If William had listened to her on that day, he would have fired Belinda without a second thought, just to please her.The shame of how Diana overreacted on that day made her lower her head at this moment. She knew she had once wronged Belinda; the guilt spread through her mind now.Raising her head, she heard the lady's voice as she continued to explain: "..I was smiling at both of you on that day because I was happy that you were the lucky woman for Mr. William."Diana was taken aback and fell into the middle of confusion. 'The lucky one? In what way?' She pondered over it in her mind.Belinda saw the confused look on her face and began to explain further: "One day, s
Diana was already on her way home. She was still in the middle of perplexity as to why Granny had called her so suddenly.She couldn't have a trace of it if she had any unconcluded discussions with the old woman, but she knew that whatever had made Granny call her must be quite important.The rapport between her and Granny wasn't that friendly. If not for a serious matter, she and Granny never had things to do together.She wasn't even Granny's favorite grandchild; Tony was.After she had tried to assume why the old woman had called her and couldn't arrive at anything, she shrugged it off and put her mind away from it.She was already on her way home and would eventually find out about whatever was the matter when she got home. She was only more concerned about it as the call was so sudden, short, and strange.Then, she moved to the next matter hanging around in her mind. 'I still wonder why William would run away from Glover City, no matter the situation. Does he even think about it
A dead silence took over Granny's room at this moment. The room was so silent that they could hear the sound of the blowing wind.At this point, Diana and her mother had gone cold as winter in their seats. They both left the question in the air, dangling.Soon, the question in the air suddenly got to their necks and nearly strangled them to death.'What? Why this question?' They were both dumbfounded as to why Granny asked the suffocating question.This time, Granny was taken aback by the sudden silent atmosphere. She wondered why Elena had gone mute.'Didn't she hear my question?' Granny questioned in her mind before she pushed further."Elena, you've not replied to my question. I'm sure you can't deny not hearing what I asked you?"Then Elena abruptly burst out and defended, "Forgive my silence, Mother. I was just so surprised by the question. Diana used to be a decent lady, so she can never do such a dirty thing."Granny didn't break eye contact with Elena as she said this. She had
In the middle of the night, when Lady Wendy was fast asleep, she had a very terrifying dream.It was a very dark and stormy night when she suddenly found herself in the middle of the Wendy Group Company.Then a very strange wind began to blow continuously, and Granny's heart was filled with fear.The old woman couldn't move an inch away from the spot she was in, as the atmosphere was just too horrible for her.Peering around, the glimmer of a little light struck, and her eyes opened to where she was in the Wendy Group Company.She was at the executive manager's office in the company. The saddening thing she saw at the office was that every corner of the office was covered with very thick cobwebs.Also, all the furniture in the office was extremely dusty, while some were already broken.In the middle of the dream, Lady Wendy was trying to understand what all these strange things were, but she was just stuck in the middle of the mystery.The atmosphere was quite frightening and unexplai
"I still hope to find out what exactly it was," Granny said afterward with an utmost panicked voice.This time, Diana's mind was filled with fear. Even though other forbidden situations had occurred that seemed likely to be the cause behind their problems, if Granny accidentally found out that she had been involved in an external affair, she wouldn't hesitate to disown her and her mother instantly.The fear in Diana's mind increased as she knew her secret might be revealed anytime soon.The result of her waywardness would be revealed not only to Granny but to the whole city. This had made her become restless in her seat.Since they had already washed themselves clean before Granny, she then dismissed them.___________________Soon, Elena and her daughter returned to their apartment. They both sat on separate couches in the living room with thousands of thoughts running through their minds.During this time, the duo were spying on each other in the living room as though they were hidi
As soon as Diana saw her mother collapse, her tears dried up immediately. She rushed to her feet, moving close to her, "Mom!!" she yelled.She lowered her body, grabbing her mother's arms and shaking them vigorously. "Mom, wake up!!" she shouted at the top of her voice again.Suddenly, Elena's eyes opened widely. As soon as she saw Diana, tears began to stream down her eyes.She continued to sob and bit her lip in disappointment.Diana understood the gravity of what she had done and then began to plead with her mother. "I know what I've done; please forgive me, Mom." Tears began to flow down her eyes too.Elena had suddenly collapsed at first because her brain couldn't comprehend the embarrassing news. But there was no way she could escape it; that's reality slapping her hard in the face.After a short while, Elena was sitting on the bare floor by herself. Then she asked her daughter, "Diana, why did you choose to disgrace yourself?"Elena's mind was feeling void at this time. She cou
It was already evening. Judge James had arrived at Emerald Bistro some hours earlier, before the agreed time.He had arrived earlier to supervise the workers assigned to the suite he had booked.Despite the workers having done a perfect job at the suite, Judge James didn't let it all be. He was still running from one corner of the suite to the other to keep things to his taste.He wanted everywhere to be extremely neat, nice, and perfect before the arrival of the Young Master.At this time, the suite was already looking stunning. The suite was booked by Judge James today, and as such, it was only a table that was seen in the wide and spacious room.The table was well-decorated and adorned with fresh flowers. Also, the table was surrounded by a few fascinating and comfortable chairs.There were some elegant wine glasses on the table too, which added a touch to the beauty.Some crystal chandeliers were in the spacious suite, casting a warm glow to the atmosphere.The decor was extremely
James continued to bow to David respectfully, "Thank you for attending." A wide smile took over his face. He couldn't just explain how happy he was; he appreciated David's presence so much. Deep down in his mind, he just couldn't thank Don Clinton enough. Even though Don had helped him secure some favors in the past, this was more incredible to him. "Thank you for the invite," David replied calmly, taking a look at the beautiful environment. It was damn captivating that even a blind person who couldn't see this beauty would perceive it through their nostrils. "I must say, this is a very lovely place," David added, and James began to blush. He clasped his hands together to his chest, feeling so flattered. He was extremely happy that his stress had paid off. He had invested a lot of his time in making the environment as beautiful as the palace of the King of Saudi Arabia. Fortunately, his guest found what he had stressed himself on so lovely. This was the first joy that spread thr
