Harry watched Jade as she ate her food in silence while he sipped from his glass of wine. He wasn't exactly hungry but had come out for lunch because he wanted her to eat as she looked too thin for his liking. He wasn't sure she has had a decent meal in a long while. "For someone who claimed to be hungry, you haven't touched your food," Jade pointed out calmly without looking at him, although she could tell that he staring at her. "I've been too hard on you, right?" Harry asked, and Jade's lips…-

Tears dropped from Sonia's eyes as she patiently listened while Lucy told her everything that happened between her and Tom. Lucy's voice was pained as she narrated how she had finally decided to act like Tom's girlfriend, and how they had ended up having sex. She also told her how she had been woken up by Tom while having a nightmare, and Sonia was shocked to hear that Lucy had fainted while talking to Tom about the traumatic experience, but more than that she was surprised that Lucy had actually decided…

As Sonia was unable to reach Lucy earlier, she had decided to use the bathroom and then wipe off what little make-up that was on her face before she returned to where Bryan was still seated on the couch. The only difference between the time she left him and now was that his head was resting against the headrest and his eyes were closed as if he had dozed off. She leaned forward and pressed her lips against his, making his lips curve in a smile as his hands automatically went around her waist to hold her…

Lucy's brain went blank for a full minute, as she stared at him blankly. Tom waited for her to say something or react, but instead, she walked over to her refrigerator to get herself a bottle of water. She emptied it into a glass and gulped down every drop as though she was trying to calm the storm that was building inside of her. How had she missed the resemblance between them? Yes, she had thought the body build was similar, but how could she not have guessed that both the CEO and Tom were the same…

Seeing the worry lines that creased his brows, Lucy could tell that this was very important to him, and as a friend, she owed it to him to at least hear what he had to say, "The call can wait," Lucy decided with a concerned frown as she rejected Sonia's call, and placed her phone on silent before dropping it on the table. "Thanks," Tom said with a nod, feeling slightly relieved that she was going to let him confess it all to her now, while also feeling anxious about the revelation he was about to make.…

Tom gazed into Lucy's eyes through her glasses as they both stood there in the open street staring at each other, without a care in the world. Nothing mattered more at that moment to either of them than the person who was standing in front of them. Tom could see the questions swimming in her cloudy gray eyes. He knew that she needed him to give her answers that would clear whatever doubts she was having about him. How was he going to do that? Where was he going to start from? "What were you doing out…

Harry glanced at Jade who was looking out of the window as he drove the car. It seemed like she was upset with him, as she was yet to say a word to him since he asked her to zip up her shorts. What did he do wrong? He had only pointed out that she had failed to zip up. "How are you?" Harry asked after a long while when he could no longer stand the silent treatment. Pretending not to have heard him, Jade searched through her handbag for her earpod and blocked both ears with them before returning her…

"I need a massage," Sonia complained to Bryan as they both returned inside the house after seeing off the production team. "I could give you that," Bryan offered, glancing up at her with a naughty grin, which made Sonia chuckle. "Why do I get the feeling that you're thinking about something else?" Sonia asked as she dropped on the couch, while Bryan got off the wheelchair to sit beside her. "I don't know. Maybe it's because you're thinking about something naughty" Bryan said with a teasing smile,…

Jade felt a sense of pride and satisfaction in herself when she saw the surprise which briefly flickered on Harry's face before it was replaced by something else. Primeval male appreciation. Although she had felt very insulted by all he had said earlier, she had also admitted to herself that she looked a mess, and needed to clean up. Hence, she had taken her time to wash her hair and thoroughly look through her closet for something nice to wear before having her bath. After dressing up she had taken her…

Mrs. Miller remained still as she gazed at her phone which was on the dining table. Never had she felt as insulted or humiliated as she was feeling at the moment. She had been humiliated in the presence of her brother and daughter, both of who she had invited over to show them how efficient she was at getting results. They had all been gathered together having lunch while awaiting the package from the private investigator before the last call came in. "There is no need to be furious. I told you…
