"So tell me, how did it go last night? It worked, didn't it? You know, when his mouth dropped open the minute you walked through the door, I knew he was toast," Mia said with a wide smile once the make-up team finished with Sonia's make-up and left the room so that Sonia could change from her clothes into the matching clothes they had gotten for her and Bryan. Bryan was also in his bedroom changing into his clothes with Jeff's help, while the production crew set up the cameras around the house. Sonia…-

"Where is Anita?" Mr. Wyatt asked his assistant with a frown when he saw the other directors and staff walking into the meeting hall with Tom, but his niece was nowhere in view. The major reason he had asked for this official handover even though they had already completed their business transaction, was because he wanted his niece to meet Thomas Hank in person. So if she was absent from the meeting room, then the whole thing would be pointless without her. Besides, he had asked her to lead the others…

The first person Lucy took note of amongst the staff who stood outside, was Anita who was dressed in the dress that they had picked out at the dress shop that weekend. Anita had made so much fuss over picking the perfect dress, and for what? This? This was the reason she had kept rejecting so many dresses insisting they weren't fit for the occasion? This was the occasion? Meeting the CEO? Wow! Harry parked the car in front of the building, and almost immediately one of the security personnel standing…

Once the car came to a stop in front of Lucy who was standing in front of the company, she opened the front passenger seat and got in. She didn't risk glancing at the backseat of the car where the CEO was seated, rather she gave Harry a polite bow before buckling her seatbelt. Between the CEO and Mr. Harry, Lucy couldn't decide on who made her feel more nervous. While Mr. Harry was always looking at her with an expression on his face that seemed like he could see through her or he knew something that…

Tom raised his head from the documents he was working on when he heard his office door being opened, "Inform Miss Perry that we would be leaving together for the meeting soon," Tom said informed Harry who had just walked into his office. Harry arched a brow, "What's with the broad voice?" Harry asked when Tom spoke to him in a voice that was different from his usual voice. "I'm trying to get used to speaking this way," Tom said, making Harry roll his eyes. "I wonder when this whole madness will…

As Tom walked into his private parking lot at the underground part of the company which led to his private elevator, he didn't see the middle-aged man who was hiding in the background watching him with a camera in his hand. The middle-aged man who had spent over twenty years of his life as a private investigator clicked his camera as he watched Tom get into the elevator. He had arrived at the company very early that morning after he received a call from Melinda Miller, the previous night, giving him…

Sonia opened her eyes in the morning and the first sight that greeted her was Bryan's face directly opposite hers, with his hands still on her waist. Without making a sound she just looked at him as he slept peacefully with his lips slightly apart. Her mind drifted to all that had happened the previous night and she winced in embarrassment at the thought that he had watched her dancing and making a fool of herself. Her heart fluttered when she remembered how he had kissed her in the pool like his life…

Tom lay on his bed, unable to sleep as he thought about what he was doing with Lucy and questioned his actions. Was he supposed to feel sorry that he was lying to her? He wasn't doing any of this to hurt her. Maybe if she had been more open to the idea of being in a relationship he would have been able to handle things more differently... Perhaps. His mind drifted to the conversation they had both had after they left Jasmine's home. Lucy had insisted they sit on the trunk of the car to receive the cool…

While sitting there and comforting her it had occurred to Bryan that she had likely been so upset over the prank because she had lost someone that way in the past, and the prank had brought back the painful memory. Sonia drew in a deep breath, and then cleared her throat, "My biological father. He worked as a lifeguard at a beach," Sonia explained with a distant look in her eyes. She had been just ten years old when her father died, and although she loved swimming because it reminded her a lot of her…

Sonia roughly pushed Bryan away from her and her eyes flashed at him angrily, "What do you think you are doing?" She asked with a glare in her eyes. "Kissing you," Bryan said in a matter-of-fact tone as though it was something she was supposed to know already. "And who said you are allowed to do that after the stunt you just pulled?" Sonia snapped at him. "When did it become an offense to play a prank on my fiancee? Or kiss her?" Bryan asked with a slightly raised brow. "How can you call that a…
