Stephanie was sitting on her couch in her living room, staring at her phone with a mix of anger and disappointment. She had just ended a phone call with Mrs Allison, and she was seething with rage."How could he do this to us?" Stephanie thought to herself. "After all we've done for him?"Jakes, who had been in the kitchen, walked into the living room and noticed the expression on her face."What's wrong?" he asked, concerned.Stephanie held up her phone. "It's my dad. Mrs Allison just told me that he admitted to stealing our cars."Jakes was shocked. "What? Your dad?"Stephanie nodded. "I can't believe it. I trusted him."Jakes walked over to her and put his arm around her. "We'll figure this out. We can go to the police and tell them everything."Stephanie shook her head. "No, I don't want to involve the police. Not yet, anyway. I want to confront him first."Jakes raised an eyebrow. "Are you sure that's a good idea?"Stephanie nodded. "I have to do it. I can't let him get away with
Mark and Kathryn had been together for a while now and their love for each other grew stronger every day. Despite Mr and Mrs Henderson's disapproval of their relationship due to Mark's disability, the two persisted and worked hard to prove their love was real.One evening, as they sat together in Kathryn's living room, Mark nervously took Kathryn's hand and looked deep into her eyes. "Kathryn, I have been thinking about this for a while now, and I know it's what I want. I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Will you marry me?"Tears welled up in Kathryn's eyes as she threw her arms around Mark's neck. "Yes, Mark, I will marry you. I love you so much," she whispered into his ear.From that moment on, the two began making plans for their wedding.

She knew her parents would not approve, but she was determined to make it happen.A few days later, Kathryn sat down with her paren
Kathryn and Mark decided to go on with their wedding plans despite the disapproval of Kathryn's parents. They made up their minds to tie the knot. Mark suggested that they have a secret wedding, and Kathryn agreed. They both wanted to be married and were willing to do whatever it takes to make it happen. They started planning the wedding secretly, knowing that they could not involve anyone in their families or close friends.The first thing they did was to find a suitable location for the wedding. They didn't want a big wedding, so they opted for a small, private location. They found a lovely garden that was perfect for their wedding ceremony. The location was remote and had no connection to any of their relatives.They also decided on the date of the wedding. They both wanted a summer wedding, and they chose a date that was only a few months away. They wanted a simple ceremony with just the two of them and a few witnesses.Kathryn took charge of the wedding dress and her make-up. Sh
Jane sat nervously in her car, checking her appearance in the rearview mirror. She had put on her best dress and applied a fresh coat of lipstick, wanting to make a good impression on Stephanie. She had not seen her former classmate in years and was nervous about the meeting. But she had a mission to accomplish, and she would not let her nerves get in the way.As she got out of her car and approached the door, she took a deep breath and rang the bell. Stephanie answered the door, looking surprised but pleased to see her."Jane! I haven't seen you in ages. Come in, come in!" Stephanie exclaimed, stepping aside to let her in. "Same here, Steph. It's so good to see you." Jane responded as she walked in. Then the both of them hugged each other and exchanged pleasantries.Jane smiled gratefully and entered the house, taking in her surroundings. The house was tastefully decorated, with family pictures on the walls and comfortable furniture.They sat down in the living room, and Stephanie of
Michael had just gotten off work and was on his way to his regular hair appointment when he spotted a familiar figure walking by the roadside. It was Lena, someone he had not seen in years. As he got closer, he recognized her instantly. He pulled over, rolled down his window and called out to her."Lena, is that you? It's me, Michael!"Lena turned around and smiled. "Michael, oh my gosh, it's been so long! How are you?"Michael got out of the car and hugged Lena. "I'm good, thanks! How about you? What are you up to these days?"They talked for a few minutes, catching up on old times, and Michael found out that Lena had recently moved back to town after living in another state for several years. He offered to give her a ride to wherever she was going, and Lena gladly accepted.As they drove, they talked about everything from their old high school memories to their current jobs and personal lives. Lena shared that she had recently broken up with her long-time boyfriend, and Michael symp
Mrs Allison's eyes widened in surprise when she saw Jane sitting on the couch in Stephanie's living room. She couldn't believe that it was the same lady who had insulted her when she was at Paul's house the other day. She composed herself and asked Stephanie what Jane was doing in her house.Stephanie explained to Mrs Allison that Jane was a friend of hers from college and they reconnected with each other. Mrs Allison was sceptical about Stephanie's explanation. "You mean, this thing?" Mrs Allison said, looking at Jane disgustingly.Stephanie took a deep breath and tried to calm down Mrs Allison. "Mum, I don't get you. I said she was a friend from college. I haven't seen her in a long time and she decided to come by to visit," Stephanie explained, believing her Mum did not hear her well the last time.Before Stephanie could say more, Mrs Allison cut her off, "I can't believe you would be friends with a woman like her! Do you know who she is and what she did? She insulted and humiliated
Lena's call was unexpected, and Taylor felt a knot form in his stomach as he answered her. He had an inkling of what she was going to ask him, and he knew he needed to be careful with his words."Hello, Taylor. How are you doing?" Lena's voice was like honey, smooth and alluring."I'm fine, Lena. How are you doing?""I'm doing great, Taylor. Listen, can we meet up? There's something I want to discuss with you."Taylor hesitated for a moment. He wasn't sure he wanted to meet up with Lena, but he knew he couldn't avoid her forever. "Sure, Lena. When and where?""This evening, at the Fairmont Hotel on 5th Avenue. I'll be waiting for you by 5 pm.""Okay. I'll be there."Taylor hung up the phone and leaned back in his chair, feeling a sense of dread wash over him. He knew that Lena wanted him back, and he had no intention of leaving his wife for her. He was happily married, and he loved his wife dearly.But he couldn't deny the allure of the offer she made. She had sent him a text message
Stephanie watched as Jane left her house, tears streaming down her face. She turned to Mrs Allison, who was still fuming from their earlier encounter and said, "I'm sorry for that, Mum. Jane is going through a lot, and I don't want her to feel like she's alone."Mrs Allison looked at Stephanie, her expression softening, and nodded. "I understand, Stephanie. I'm sorry for how I acted towards her. I just can't stand the sight of her after the way she treated me."Stephanie nodded in understanding, then sighed. "Mum, I have to be honest with you. I don't want to have anything to do with my father."Mrs Allison's eyes widened in surprise. "Why not, Stephanie? I thought you two have reconciled."Stephanie shook her head. "We had, but he did something that surprised me recently. He's been a huge disappointment lately. He stole our cars and denied it. If not for the fact that he confessed to you, we wouldn't have known that he was behind the theft."Hmmm..." Mrs Allison reacted."I can't bri
