900 Immature And Lacking Harry tossed and turned all night, unable to find even a moment of peace. His mind was a relentless storm, churning with thoughts of Jade and the state of their relationship. Every time he closed his eyes, he saw her face, her tear-streaked cheeks, and her eyes filled with pain, and guilt gnawed at him, making sleep impossible. He still felt guilty about treating her this way despite the fact that he knew and believed deep down that he had taken the best decision for…

899 Club S & G After unpacking their bags, Tom excused himself to go take Barry's call, while Lucy decided to see if Kimberly had responded to the congratulatory message she sent her earlier that morning since she was married now. Lucy's brows pulled together when she noticed that Kimberly had seen the message but did not respond to it.

Tom remained on the balcony after his phone call with Harry, his mind a whirlwind of thoughts and emotions. The conversation with Harry left him heavy-hearted and worried about Jade. Instead of heading back inside, he leaned against the railing of the balcony, the cool night air brushing against his skin as he pulled out his phone again. He stared at it for a moment before dialing Jade's number. He needed to hear from her and know how she was doing, and to also understand what had driven her to such…

After walking away from the suite he shared with Jade, Harry went over to the resort lounge, and he sat there, agonizing silently over what had just happened. He sat there, staring blankly at ornate designs on the wall as he replayed the entire event in his head. The more he thought about it, the more frustrated he felt, and the heavier the weight in his chest. Everything had been meticulously planned, down to the last detail. But now, it was all in shambles because of a misunderstanding. Jade's…

Harry laughed when Jade tickled his foot and he tried to pull his leg away, but Jade held on to his leg. "Why are you doing that?" Harry asked, and Jade grinned. "Because I like to hear you laugh," she said, and Harry laughed as he grabbed her hand and pulled her close to him so they lay on the bed, side by side. The past three weeks had been a whirlwind, a much-needed vacation that had started a little rocky, because of Harry's workaholic tendencies, but gradually smoothed out after their…

Lucas leaned back into the plush cushions of the couch, the final whistle of the football game still echoing in his ears. The living room was now silent, save for the low hum of the television as it flickered to a sports recap. Rubbing his eyes, he considered his options. He could keep watching the television and wait for Tyler, or go straight to bed. He glanced at the wall clock: 10:15 P.M. Nah. He couldn't wait up for Tyler, he decided as he pushed himself off the couch and made his way to…

As Mia and Diana returned to the house, Diana's mind was still reeling from the revelations of the morning. After Mia returned from the restroom earlier, Mia had told her how she met Henry and how Henry had ruined her family's business just so they would be indebted to him and he could marry her. Diana had always known Henry was a monster, but she had never imagined the depth of his cruelty. She glanced at Mia, who was staring out the window, her expression distant and she sighed inwardly wishing…

After Mia and Diana had spent most of the morning shopping, Diana suggested that they have lunch together before going home, and Mia reluctantly agreed, since she had been looking forward to eating the meal prepared by Jeff. As they made their way to the restaurant, which was within the mall where they were shopping, Diana looked at Mia, wondering if she could really trust her. The last thing she wanted was for all of this to be a set up, and for Mia to expose her to Henry if she so much as confided…

Mia woke up early, the first rays of sunlight filtering through the curtains of her room. Her heart fluttered with excitement but she didn't smile for fear that Henry was watching her. Jeff was under the same roof with her now, and the thought of seeing him first thing in the morning filled her with an almost childlike anticipation. She freshened up quickly, splashing cold water on her face to shake off the remnants of sleep, and brushed her hair until it fell in soft waves around her shoulders.…

Alone in the living room, Sonia leaned forward as she grinned at Lucy, "So, that was the look you fell for, huh?" She teased and Lucy rolled her eyes. "The look? No. You know I'm not a fan of such looks. Honestly, I have no idea how or why I fell for him when he even looked that way. I guess I looked past all of that," Lucy said and Sonia giggled. "But he doesn't look so bad," Sonia said and Lucy nodded. "When next I'm coming I will get some ear and nose rings. I'd like to see them on Bryan," Lucy…
