Bitter Sweet Love
Crystal Blues, a young woman from a low-class family, endured the tragic loss of her parents when she was just twelve years old. Left with the weighty responsibility of caring for her younger sisters, she faced a challenging path ahead.
Fortune smiled upon her when her path crossed with an archangel in the name of Mervin Brooklyn who offered his assistance, thus lightening the burden she bore.
As fate would have it, Crystal eventually obtained evidence pointing to her parents' murderers, only to discover that they were part of a formidable and powerful family.
Life took an even more complicated turn when she found herself entangled in a complex love triangle. Her affections were torn between Mervin, her guardian archangel, and the daughter of the family responsible for her parents' demise.
Fuelled by a burning desire to bring the responsible family to justice, Crystal made the bold decision to reveal the damning evidence she held against them.
However, the tables quickly turned, and Crystal's loved ones were thrust into jeopardy, becoming bargaining chips in exchange for the proof of the family's wrongdoing.
Now, she stands at a harrowing crossroads, forced to make a life-altering choice that could either rescue her from impending tragedy or condemn her to a painful repetition of history.

Chapter: Haunted By The Past11 YEARS LATERFrankfurt,GermanyThe room was quiet except from the sound of air being drawn in and out of Tranny's nose. Light slipped through the gap in the curtains making him blink awake.He lay still on his king size bed for a moment, his eyes on the ceiling. Few seconds later, a soft, long sigh escaped his lips.He rolled over and sat up straight stretching and yawning as lays of the sun hit his bare broad chest and reached his phone with the other.The phone was beside him. He tapped the screen."Fuc*" he cursed, throwing the phone back on the bed.It was 6:30 am.Barefooted, he stepped out of the bed with only his undies leaving his robe hanging on a chair untouched.He walked to the window and pulled the curtain open.The skyline of Frankfurt greeted him. Far below, tiny people and cars moved along narrow roads between towering buildings.From one of the buildings, a massive billboard flashed his face—sharp jawline, dark eyes, and a warm smile that could raise the dead, hai

Chapter: A Longing HeartThe sound of the wave was calm accompanied by the cool soothing breeze, a few birds flew and chirped across the lake it was almost 4pm and the sun was already drawing to the South casting a golden hue over the horizon. Mervin rested his back on his car, his eyes rocked on Crystal who was standing beside him, eyes fixed to the ground.At a far distance, the only presence was their bodyguards who stood watchful.It's just 30 minutes since they left the airport but it somehow seemed like a few seconds ago. The only sound as they made their way to the lake was Mervin's voice arguing over the phone with his parents over his behavior at the airport which they had branded as reckless. It took him at least 15 minutes to absorb his parents' fury and shouting before he'd convinced them that he wasn't risking the company, rather losing Crystal was the threat."Crystal," he called softly, holding her hand.Crystal couldn't speak, she took a deep breath, her shoulder rising slowly then falling.

Chapter: Tedia's ThreatMeanwhile, Miranda was on her way to a photoshoot. She yawned for the tenth time and straightened up. She looked around and sighed for the hundredths time. She reached for her bag and picked out her phone. Her eyes flicked over the phone as her fingers swiped lazily, scrolling through the endless updates.Her eyes suddenly caught something.BILLIONAIRE IN DISTRESS.Reading the title of the update, she paused. Her car suddenly passed on a porthole making her tap on the video unintentionallyShe sighed again and lifted her finger to press the back button, but her finger froze when Mervin's face popped on her screen, his face pale and lips slightly parted and trembling , his voice was like a broken record that it was hard for her to understand what he was saying.Her face turned red immediately and a smirk appeared on her face and she scoffed. "Damn it," she muttered under her breath as her stomach twisted.She was frustrated.She scoffed again, flinging the phone to the seat beside h

Chapter: Don't Leave Me , CrystalCrystal walked out of the cafe after a thirty minutes cry in the restroom. By then, Mrs Brooklyn had long left. She stood at the entrance, her eyes scanning the street as she waited for her driver.She hadn't used bodyguards in a long time. She feared for their life and after Miss Betty left the mansion, she could no longer trust anyone.It was one of the guards that revealed where she lived to Miranda and at many occasions, the same bodyguards have sold information about her to the Griffins.And by the way, she had nothing to lose now."Look who we have here," a familiar voice rang in her ear.'What a day' Crystal thought as she took a deep breath.She pulled out her phone and dialed her driver’s number again.“Hello, what…"A hand snatched the phone from her ear. Crystal turned to face him, Teddy, he stood just a foot away.“Teddy, what more do you want from me?” she asked, her voice calm, but her eyes sharp.He licked his lower lip, a smirk appeared at the corner of his mouth.“Yo

Chapter: Disappear From Mervin's SightCrystal slowly walked into the cafe. At every step she took, her legs felt heavy to carry her feet. Her body felt heavy to he carried by her tiny legs. At a moment she wished she could just turn back and go home, but she didn't want to behave like a coward."If I turn back now," she thought, "I’ll just be dragged into the mess when Mervin’s not looking. I can’t let that happen."She took a deep breath then pushed forwards..Earlier that morning, Mervin had left for work, and a few hours ago, she received a call from Mrs. Brooklyn. Her mother-in-law had asked to meet her at the café at 2 p.m., "Don't tell my son" her words were clear.Crystal knew this meeting should be unpleasant, but she couldn't refuse. She was her daughter in-law after all.Taking the stairs to the second floor, Crystal spotted Mrs. Brooklyn at the table by the window.
