Vida went to see her father before deciding to leave for the day; neither of them brought up the marriage topic because it had ended badly. She told him that she would see him tomorrow before she left the hospital. All through the ride back home, Vida kept thinking of Axel and how she was going to get out of the marriage. She knew that if she had to marry him because of money, the only way she could get out of that situation was to make sure that the company was not able to file for bankruptcy; that way she was saved.

She got into the house and went to her room. After changing out of her clothes and taking off her makeup, she called James. He was the only one who could help her with her plan. She had to find a way to get the financial status of the company and work from there; she was sure that there was a way to save the company from within, and the only reason her father was not doing it that way was because she was sick. She could not let her education go to waste like that.

    Vida knew she was childish to ignore Maria like that but since she still could not bring herself to talk to the woman, she decided that this was the best thing to do."My Vida? How is breakfast?" Maria asked, trying to get a reaction from her. This was not the way she usually reacted to her cooking, and she was worried. With the way she stormed out yesterday, she was worried she had done or said something to hurt her feelings. She replayed the conversation a thousand times in her head while she was trying to drift to bed and concluded that it was just a normal conversation. They had not brought up Axel, who was a trigger for her, and everything seemed normal, so why was she being so erratic?"Fine," Vida murmured, barely audible. She dropped the toast on the table and pushed the seat behind her before she stormed out of the room. After the humiliation at the company and the interaction with her nanny, she had decided that she was going to really expose Axel after the year they would s

    Vida walked in angrily and threw her phone on the bed. She was so angry at the situation; how dare he? She thought he was at least not as bad as she thought. Her phone was ringing nonstop, but she made up her mind to ensure that she did not get his call, no matter how many times he tried to reach out. He and his minion, who had wanted to embarrass her, could go to hell for all she cared.After steaming in anger for a few minutes, she decided to let it go because she might do something crazy if she did not. She went down to get something cool to drink. As she got into the kitchen, she saw her nanny busy there. She was suddenly taken back to her childhood days when she would get back to see the woman busy trying to make a meal for herself and her dad."Do you ever take a break?" Maria turns back with a smile on her face."Oh my Vida How can I ever take a break? I have to make sure that everything goes according to plan," she responded, turning off the stove and walking to the girl."It

    Axel was left stunned by her reaction; he had been sure that things were getting better between them, but every time he seemed to be getting through to her, something came up and ruined the whole thing. He knew that going after her was going to be wasted effort, so he knew he had to find out what had happened in the ladies' room, as that was when everything changed. He walked into the room with all eyes on him, wondering what had just happened."Are we to continue the meeting without her?" One of the men found the courage to ask on behalf of everyone else.'Continue," Axel said, sitting in his chair. He was going to observe everyone there to know what had happened. He stared at a woman in particular, as he was sure she was the one behind the entire thing. She had stood up to go to the ladies' at the same time that Vida had gone and it was after the encounter that she came out angry and throwing a tantrum."Ms Andrea?" he said, stopping the meeting. The room fell dead silent as everyon

    Vida got ready with Emily's help and brought her to the meeting venue. Axel had made sure to tell her that it was a brunch meeting, and she was glad that it would not be anything too formal for her. She walked in with the bodyguards that Axel had stationed outside to help her find her way in. As she walked, she felt her leg lose strength. One of the guards opened the door, and she saw Axel's eyes meet hers from the far end of the room. He had been staring at the door, waiting for her to come so the meeting could commence. He smiled a little and stood up from the head of the table, walking to her."You can leave now," he murmured to the guard before standing beside her and putting his hand to the small of her back to guide her through the large hall. "Don't be scared," he added in a whisper, and she whipped her head to him, wondering how he had figured out what she was feeling in that moment.She always knew that this moment was going to come, but still, she was not ready for it, no ma

    "It's been only two days but I feel sore as if I ran up a mountain ten times," Emily groaned as they fell to the couch. Kat had insisted that they cancel the wedding planners that her father had hired and do everything by themselves, stating that this was the only fun fact about a wedding."I wonder why I listened to Kat; all of this would have been handled by a bunch of people who would get paid in the end," Vida said."Well, do you have the money to pay them?" Kat asked and they all took a breath, understanding what she meant."Well, who says I have to be the one who pays? Axel is there, and he is the one who wants to go in for this marriage, so don't you think he should be the one paying?" Vida asked. Her friends looked at her with a stunned expression. Even though it did not sound like something positive, this was the first time she talked about him, and her description did not sound like she was talking about a monster. "You know I am right, so I think we should call the planners

    Vida forced herself to go through breakfast with Axel, constantly zoning out while he spoke. She did not like that he seemed happy doing what he wanted while she was stuck doing business. When breakfast was over, she practically ran out of the restaurant without looking back."Vida? Why do you look so angry? Did something happen when you were out?" Maria asked as soon as she ran into her in the hallway. Vida knew that saying that Acel's success had affected her mood was a bit too strange, but then it was her nanny, and she was sure she would understand. She also hated the fact that he seemed to have such a strong effect on her to change her mood so seriously. She had to swear that she was okay a few hours before meeting him earlier today."Vida? You're back," Kat said. Vida raised her eyes to see her friends dressed in comfy clothes walking towards her. For a moment, she had suddenly forgotten that they were around. She pressed her lips together as they stood in front of her."Where h
