37.Aly strutted into the office with high spirits. Today was the day she signed the deal with one of the largest beauty companies in New Jersey. She took out her phone as she sat at her desk to see if she had received any notifications or messages from anyone. She remembered her phone buzzing last night, but she didn’t check who it was from.She had received countless messages from her friends and family wishing her well, but it was one message that caught her eye. A message from Bazyli. The message read : “ Hi Alyona, I hope you’ve been good? Yes, please. I’m open to having a conversation whenever you want. Goodnight and sleep well.” She was stunned.“ Hi Bazyli, I’m well, and yourself? Will 3pm my time and 10 p.m your time be great for you?” she sent it, waiting for a reply from him.~~~~~“ Are you sure you want to come down?” Kim asked her cousin when he told her he had to be in New Jersey in a few hours. “ I didn’t want to, but I had to. There’s someone who wants to invest in

“ Deep breaths, Aly, deep breaths.” Kimora consoled as they sat in the hospital’s waiting room. Kim booked the next available flight from Hawaii down to New Jersey when Clinton called to inform her of what had happened.“ T-t-t-today w-w-was supposed to be a good day, Kimora. I finally closed the deal, a-and Bazyli and I were supposed to have a call. I didn’t know he was in town, nor did I know he was coming to see me. If only I had reached out earlier, maybe, just maybe, he would have been okay.” she panicked.“ It’s not your fault, Aly,” Clinton said, joining them. “ That’s what I’ve been trying to tell her, but she keeps blaming herself,” Kimora added just as the doctor approached them.“ He’s stable now and out of surgery—-- “ Why do I feel there’s a but?” Aly couldn’t help but cut his sentence short. “ There is. He’s going to be on a wheelchair for a while because of the severity of the hit to his spine. He’s not paralysed, but it will take a while before he’s able to walk aga

“ Are you sure you’re comfortable with this arrangement?” Davina asked, helping her pack her suitcase.“Yes, Davina. I want to do this. If he had left for the airport without coming to see me to talk, he wouldn’t have been in this state, and if I had reached out to him earlier, he wouldn’t have been in this state,” she explained.“ I understand how you feel, but is this the right thing to do? What if you get fed up and decide you can’t take care of him any longer? What happens then?” Davina asked.“ I’m not going to be doing that alone, Dav. He’s hiring a nurse who will take care of him during the day when I’m off to work, and I’ll take over from her when I’m back.”“ Okay, if you say so. Be safe and don’t hesitate to call or come over. We’re always here for you,” Davina encouraged.“ Thanks baby girl.” she appreciated.Commuting to work would not be difficult for Aly because Bazyli’s house wasn’t far from her office. Another reason why she opted to be the one to live with him. Kim ad

“You can, but you know I’m right, right?” Xara said to her daughter as she walked into the kitchen behind her. Elon had married, and Giada and Jaxon were off to college. Aly had built a solid brand for herself, and over the years, she had been able to achieve her dreams. Her brand was one of the most recognized in Jersey City, NJ. Ever since her father died, Aly hasn't been interested in any relationships. She spent most of her time building her brand, which is now successful. What was left now was for her to get a man in her life because she wasn’t getting any younger. “Know what, Ma?” She rubbed her temples, waiting for a response, knowing full well what her mother was trying to say. She knew she needed a man, but the question was, who? Most of these men were egoistic, rude, and annoying, and they weren’t ready for any serious commitment. She didn’t want that for herself. She wanted more. A love like her parents own or something similar. “You need a man, Aly.” Xara pointed it

“You need to tell her before she finds out, Bazyli,” his cousin said, opening the fridge to get a bottle of water.“We’ve been through this already, Kimora," he said, skillfully flipping the stir fry he was making.“I know, but according to you, she’s not like the others. She’s not invested in wealth, fame, and all that crap. She’s already made a name for herself. So telling her is just ideal. You know how women react when they find out that you lied.”"Yes, Kimora, I’ll tell her soon,” he said, dramatically rolling his eyes at her.Kimora was a runway model and had worked with Alyona a couple of times. She loved her work culture and personality, and she wasn’t happy her cousin’s actions were going to end up hurting her and may even ruin her work relationship with Aly.Kimora started modeling at the age of 12. It was her passion to do so, and she was glad her Asian parents didn’t talk her out of it or convince her to do something else.At 25, she was working with most of the big fashi

“ Hey, you.”“ Hi, did I keep you waiting?” he asked, sitting at their table.“ Um…”"Waiter, can we get the menu?” He cut her off before she could complete her sentence.She really liked him but was getting fed up with the way he always treated her. She understood he wasn’t ready for love yet, but that didn’t give him the opportunity to treat her badly. “ You know what? I’m sick and tired of you treating me like some piece of trash. I did you no wrong, yet you treat me like a nobody. You’re a great guy deep down, and I know it. I’ve tried Calvin; you know I have, yet you keep pushing me away and treating me like trash, and I’ve had enough of it.” Kimora said as she picked up her bag.“ I know you’re afraid and still hurting, but you need to heal. If you do and you still want me, you know where to find me. Until then, it’s see you later,” she gave him a peck on his cheek and walked away, leaving him wondering what had just happened.“Are you ready to order, sir?”“ Yes , yes, get me

"Hey, Ma,” Jax said on the phone. “Hi baby, how’s school?” Xara inquired. She was currently on a trip with Penny. Alianna and Val were both caught up with ‘something important’ so they couldn’t make it to Bora Bora with them; they were simply missing out on Xara and Penny's tropical paradise. Despite their absence, they couldn't resist the impulse to call their friends and live vicariously through their wonderful trip. “School’s fine; I'm just missing you. Are you good? Eating well and sleeping well?” He asked, genuinely concerned. “ I’m fine, Jaxon, and yes, I am eating well and living well. Currently in Bora Bora with Penny sipping cocktails on a yacht,” “ Oh, okay. I’m glad you’re fine, Mama.” “ How are things between you and Giada? Are you good?” she asked out of the blue. “ Yes, yes. She was here last week to visit me," he smiled. He was glad he had been able to restore the broken relationship he had with his sister. "Surprise, surprise," one of the bartenders said as Aly

"Alyona, hi. I wasn't expecting you at all. Come in." Kimora ushered her into the house. " I came bearing gifts," she said, handing her a bouquet and the latest YVL bag in a box. " Oh, my gosh! Thank you so much. Care for some wine?" Kimora asked, putting her gifts away. " Yes, yes, a bottle of Moscatto will do, please." Alyona smiled at her. She was impressed by the interior decor of Kimora's home. There was no doubt that she had great taste. " Have you heard from Bazyli? " Kimora asked, pouring a glass of wine for Aly and herself. " Yeah, he said he would be coming back this weekend," she smiled. She couldn't wait to see him. This had been the most boring and slowest three weeks ever. " Awesome" " Enough of Bazyli. Is there anyone you're seeing at the moment?" Alyona's question caught Kim off guard, making her hesitate before answering her. " Not at the moment, but there's someone I like; unfortunately, he doesn't feel the same way." She tried to mask her pain. “ Can I know
