"Good morning, Lucy. I'm so sorry I came in unannounced and barged in on you like this. You didn't respond to my text, so I decided to stop by and see how you're doing," Anita said with her usual smile while she watched Lucy's face closely. "You could have saved yourself the stress of coming all the way here by just calling," Lucy pointed out with a smile of her own as she sat down on her seat while watching Anita closely and trying to discern what she was up to now. "Well, I'm here already so I…-

"You are not listening to me, are you?" The managing director of I-Global healthcare and pharmaceuticals asked with a wave of his right hand when Tom just kept staring at him with a puzzled frown on his face. The middle-aged man with a receding hairline had been surprised when he walked into the CEO's office and saw Tom looking completely different from what he knew him to be. Seeing how distracted the usually sharp-witted CEO was, he could tell that his mind was very far away from whatever was going on…

Candy who had just finished preparing a breakfast of sausage french toast quickly washed her hands and picked up a napkin to dry them as she hurried to the door when she heard the sound of her doorbell. She didn't need to ask to know who it was as the only person she was expecting was Matt. Once she opened the door, a smile split her facial features when she saw Matt standing there dressed in a gray-colored long-sleeved turtle neck top and black jean trouser and holding up a bouquet in front of him, "I…

Sonia's eyes fluttered open slowly, and she blinked in surprise when the first thing she saw was Bryan's blue eyes gazing directly into her face with an amused smile. "Good morning, beautiful. Seeing how soundly you slept with all that snoring sounds you made, I'm sure you slept well," Bryan greeted with a cheerful smile as he leaned forward and brushed her lips with his. "I don't snore. How long have you been staring at me?" Sonia asked with a scowl, trying not to look too embarrassed at the thought…

Jade raised her head from her laptop when she heard the knock on her bedroom door, "Yeah? You can come in," she said, and returned her attention to her laptop since she could tell that it was Harry knocking on her door. Harry who was still dressed in his blue flannel pajamas opened the door and walked into the bedroom. He did a double-take when he saw Jade seated in the center of her bed with documents sprawled all over the bed, and her laptop in front of her. "Did you even sleep a wink last night?"…

For the first time in the twelve years since Tom started driving, he drove recklessly and managed to arrive at Lucy's apartment exactly thirty minutes after her phone call to him. How he had managed to brush, bathe, and dress up in that short time frame, was probably going to be one of the top wonders of the world. Not sure of what to expect, Tom took in a deep breath as he raised his hand to knock on her door, but before his knuckles could connect with the door, the doorknob turned, and then the door…

While Lucy slept peacefully through the night, Tom was unable to sleep as he kept wondering what he could do to make Lucy see reasons with him. He really wanted to be with her, and he hated to think that he possibly might have ruined his chances of being with the one person he thought might be right for him simply because he had been trying to be careful not to end up with the wrong person. These thoughts bothered Tom so much that he tossed and turned in his bed for most of the night and only managed to…

"So?" Brandy asked when she opened the door to the dressing room and saw Candy who was humming a tune as she sat in front of the mirror dressing up for the evening. Brandy was fond of starting conversations with such weird questions, so Candy wasn't surprised by it. Instead, she asked the only question she knew that Brandy expected from her, "So what?" Candy asked as she touched up the red lipstick on her lips and then adjusted the orange afro wig on her head. Brandy walked further into the room and…

On hearing Harry's condition, Jade raised a brow, "Why should I do that?" She asked flatly. Harry picked up his phone and without her knowledge, and clicked on his voice recorder, "That is the only way I can be sure that you won't be yelling at me later, saying you didn't ask for my help," Harry pointed out. Like the logical lady she was, Jade considered his request for a moment. She did need all the information he had already as well as all the information he could help her get with his connection.…

"You could have at least let me know about your plans before confessing to her!" Bryan hissed at his brother under his breath after Tom explained the current situation of things to him. He could tell that the phone call between Sonia and Lucy had to do with this, and he knew that if he didn't handle things properly he was going to be fighting with Sonia over it. It wasn't like he was there when Tom decided to be Lucy's neighbor or driver. He had only been brought into the picture after Tom had done…
