“Let’s start the preaching with dad as soon as we get back.” It’s been two days, and it’s the last day of my business conference. Savannah is still unconscious and is still at the ICU. I make sure to be updated on her condition, and Stefano updates me all the time.“We should just head back tomorrow. We need more information—”“You can just stay here, and let’s just do the preaching when you get back. I have to go back for my wife and daughter.”“I understand but—”“Cassandra, two days for me is enough. I’ve seen and heard enough. I don’t know what else you want to explore in this place, but you can stay if you want. I’ll head back later at the afternoon, and you head back tomorrow noon. Got it?”“You’ll leave me alone here?” I stopped walking and turned to her.“You have your secretary and security with you. What do mean you’ll be left alone?”“I mean, it’s our first business conference together ever since you publicize your position. Shouldn’t we work on this together?”“I already d
“I’m sorry! I can’t hold it any longer! I think I’m going to fart if I keep holding my laughter!” Sylvester said while laughing. I can’t stop myself from laughing too.“You’re so bad at acting! Why did I never realize that your face is so funny! I almost lost it when I saw you squeezing Skyler!” I said while laughing. I looked at Cameron, who looks flustered and confused. “That’s what you get! You think you’re the only one who can pretend to have an amnesia?!”“You think that’s funny?! I was so worried!”“I only pretended for a few minutes but you did it for weeks! I wouldn’t lose this kind of chance to pay you back!”“That’s different! I did it for a reason!”“I did it for fun, but it’s not different!”“You two should stop, you might end up fighting. You just got married,” mom said.“You also played along, mom?” Cameron asked.“Of course. I also wouldn’t miss the chance to play with my kids. Also, I’m Savanah’s mother. She got the humor from me.” I smiled and fist bump mom. Cameron t
It’s been a couple of weeks, and today is New Year’s Eve. We are busy preparing for our family’s celebration later at night. Both the Harris and the Zach are together in a private resort to welcome the New Year. “Aw! Ouch! Sav help!” I turned to Vester and saw Via pulling his hair. I quickly grabbed my daughter from him and pulled her hand away. “Why does she keep on pulling my hair?! I’m not yet married but I think I’ll be bald even before I say I do!” “Let me see your scalp.” I looked at his head and smirked as I thought to play a little prank. “Oh, my gosh. This is bad!” “W-Why?! Am I going bald?!” “There are bald spots. This is a major turn off to all women. Tsk, this is bad.” “WHAT?! What should I do?!” “Well, stay single for life, I guess?” I think he realized what I’m doing. He stood up straight and glared at me. “You think that’s funny? If I get bald, you’ll have to compensate me on behalf of your daughter!” “Only your hair will disappear, don’t stress too much!” Sudde
The day went fast and it’s now getting closer to midnight. Everyone is having fun chatting, laughing, eating and drinking. “This year is really memorable and fruitful, if I must say,” Cameron’s father said. “You had your first grandchild this year! You must be really happy!” Uncle Jacob said and I can’t help but smile. “I also had my first daughter-in-law this year! It’s really memorable.” I turned to Cameron who’s sitting on my left while feeding Via. “This is my favorite year,” I whispered. “We have more years to look forward to, together.” “I know, but this year is where you and Via came into my life.” “We’ll... that’s true.” We both chuckled. I sometimes feel like I’m still dreaming. It was just like yesterday when my life has no directions and all I do is party and drink, now I have Aviana and Cameron. Not to mention, me and my brothers are able to fix our relationship this year. We still fight, but we understand each other more. “Sav, pass me the salad.” I got back to
“Okay! That’s a wrap! Thank you, Savannah. You did a really great job!” Did a great job? Was that supposed to be an insult or compliment? I’m the great Savannah Harris, and it’s normal for me to be flawless in everything I do. “Well, if that’s all then I can leave, right?” The team leader looked so flustered. Was there something insulting in what I just said? Of course, none. He’s probably expecting me to compliment him too but I decided to be a bitch today, so, poor him. “If there’s nothing else then I should take my leave.” I grabbed my bag from my manager and walked away without looking back. Gosh! I hope I’m not late for the party! My friends are probably waiting for me! “Don’t call or text me. Wait, you know what, just don’t think about me at all. I’ll be partying and you should too. You’re near on becoming a corpse! Why are you so pale? Anyway, I’m out of here.” I entered my car and didn’t even wait for my manager to response. Why would I? He could wait, while my party can’t
“Put me down you bastard! Help! I’m getting kidnapped! Put me down! Somebody, help me!” Who the hell is this guy?! And what are my friends doing?! We are now out of the bar and no one dared to help me! Was this their plan? Am I getting kidnap?! Even before I could think more absurd theories, the man in black suit shoves me inside a car. After he came in, I finally recognized my ‘kidnapper’ “Cameron?! What on earth do you think you’re doing?! I’m leaving!” Before I could open the door, my bodyguard puts a handcuff on my wrist. The other side is on his wrist, and it is obviously a prevention for me not to run away. “What the hell? Am I a criminal or what?!” “Your grandfather wants you on the family dinner.” I scoffed. He really sent someone to ‘kidnap’ me from the party?! “I thought you are my bodyguard? Aren’t you supposed to be protecting me and not kidnapping me? You’re supposed to take orders from me!” “Sorry to break it to you, but I work for SH Holdings and I was just assigne
Few minutes later, someone knocked on my bedroom door. “Come in!” Skyler came in while holding a tray filled with foods “Here’s your food.” “Why are you the one bringing that?” “I volunteered because I wanted to ask you something.” “And what is that?” I asked as I sip from the glass of orange juice. Skyler is the youngest among the four of us. He’s a singer and he’s like a baby to me. Well, I could say he’s definitely a different breed compared to my other brothers. “How can you do that?” “Do what?” “Being bold, being tough, being brave and being fearless. How can you answer father and grandfather without fear? Because, in my case, I get shivers all over my body down to my spine with just a single glance from them. But you, you can be that brave even with those glares from them.” “Was that supposed to be a compliment or not? I should be happy about that, should I?” “Of course! There’s no way I’m insulting my favorite sister!” “Skyler, I’m your only sister.” I placed the gla
I left the mansion early the next day because I have another photoshoot. After finishing my exhausting schedule, it really is exhausting because we did motion shots which I totally hate, I went to my soon-to-be ex-boyfriend’s penthouse.I step out of the elevator that directly brings me to the penthouse. I searched around and saw no one inside. Did he leave? Where the hell is that jerk?I was about to call him but I started hearing moaning noises from his room. I slowly walked towards the room and opened the door and there I saw him having intercourse with a woman that I never saw before.I knocked on the door while leaning on it. The two were to startled after seeing me. The girl covered her body with the blanket while Brian wraps a towel on his waist before approaching me.“What are you doing here?” he angrily asked. “Why didn’t you call me before coming?”“Why? Is your girlfriend not allowed to be here now? Sorry to disturb you, you probably haven’t reached the climax yet.” He trie
