Grace reclines gracefully on a plush, opulent couch, she is wearing sumptuous silk and her face is filled with a beaming smile. An attendant stands nearby, gently feeding her an assortment of succulent, ripe fruits, each morsel offered with the utmost care and precision. She cannot believe this is what luxury feels like in the Bright group mansion. If she found Christopher earlier, earlier, would she have become Madam of this house?She feels the texture of the silk once more, if this is a dream, she doesn’t want to ever wake up from it. Just a while back, she was living in the slums of the city, she didn’t even have water to bathe every single day nor electricity. Her life was disgusting but she waited, hoping her son will find Christopher who she had extra marital affairs with many years ago. “Mom!?” Austin yells and she sits up, the attendant moves back in haste when he barges in. There is a distasteful look on his face, he is angry. “What is the matter? Why are you screaming?” G

“Wow! You are getting married to Daxon? My ex-husband!” Veronica says, her eyes glazed with contempt.“Don’t fool yourself Veronica! The both of you never shared a relationship. The only reason you are saying this is because he is the heir of Bright group.” Azura says. “Mom, can you make her see sense? Is Daxon the only man in the world?” Veronica says, walking towards Azura who is seated at the sitting room.“No but he is the only man for me. Tell me, you called him an errand boy when he was nothing but now, you miraculously remember his real name.” Azura says, determined to stand up for her own relationship. “Fine! I was blinded by greed but now, I’m thinking for your own sake. Do you think his father will accept you into their family? After all I did…it was right on the table I was arrested. I remember it vividly.” Veronica says, staring at space and zooming out, she is thinking about the scenario that was both disgraceful and shameful.Azura stands up and holds her sister. “We

At the end of the meeting, Christopher Winter walks over to his son to have a conversation due to their disconnect after Austin’s arrival. At the end of the press conference meeting, Christopher can see that Daxon moves with the esteem of the shareholders and that is a good trait of a CEO.“Would you not share the good news with me, son?” Christopher says and Daxon stops in his tracks as he turns to his father.“I was not ready to talk to you. I felt like you were betraying me.” Daxon replies, his shoulders stiffen as he finally joins in conversation with his father. “I know Austin is not a son that I can be proud of. I’m the reason he has turned out that way. I failed as a father but I know you, Daxon. You are different.” Christopher says.“Are you expecting me to forgive him just because he is my step brother? He tried to lull me and all this time, he knew we were brothers. His heart is dark and I want nothing to do with Austin.” Daxon says.“Fine. You are right. You don’t have to

“Does this mean you don’t stand a chance with the company?” Grace asks over the phone and Austin’s face hardens as he is reminded of how he lost once again to Daxon.“I will never accept it. If Christopher is acting in guilt, I will make sure I bend his heart and make sure he talks to the shareholders to fix me a spot in the company. I’m coming for Bright group and I will become the new heir.” He says, squeezing his phone tightly. “We have to come up with a plan to get rid of Daxon. As it’s going…he is a very strong competitor and I don’t think you can fulfill your dream while he’s still alive.” Grace says over the phone.“No, mom…we need to keep our hands clean. Have you forgotten that the old man has pretended to not know that I tried to kill Daxon? I cannot go anything that will toss me out of his favor. I just have to blindside Daxon.” Austin says as he is standing outside his car which is parked at the side of the road.From that point, he sights a man wearing a blue shirt and h
