The crash was so loud that it made Viola freeze.

She stared at the shattered vase, her chest tightening as tears filled her eyes. It was the one her mother had given her on her wedding day to Nathan, a piece she had treasured more than anything, but now it was ruined by Claire’s daughter.

As for Bella, she froze and smiled happily, but just then, her eyes darted up and collided with Viola’s who was staring at her with anger.

For a few seconds, guilt flashed across her face. But she became startled after being caught, so to escape from it, she let out a loud cry and shouted, “Mommy! Uncle Nathan! I didn’t mean it!” she cried loudly.

Nathan and Claire who were touring around the house with happiness on their faces heard her cries and ran back to the living room.

On getting there, Claire gasped and rushed to Bella’s side when she saw the broken vase.

She quickly bent down as she inspected her. “Oh no sweetie, are you hurt? Did you cut yourself?” She asked.

Nathan also came over qu

    Meanwhile, Viola blinked once, then twice, before letting out a soft laugh. “So this is why this company felt different,” she said calmly even though her eyes were filled with surprise. “It makes sense now.” Sge said this because just like Xander, Micheal was also a perfectionist. No wonder they are best friends.At the same time, Alexa turned to Micheal sharply and asked. “You are the CEO?!”Seeing her look, Micheal scratched the back of his neck awkwardly and muttered. “Well… yes.”Hearing this, Alexa stared at him for three seconds, before shouting with an accusing look on her face, “You hid this from us?!”Viola burst into laughter, while the executives exchanged looks, still unable to process what they were saying.Micheal sighed helplessly and said. “Don’t be mad, it’s my fault”. Laughing at his look, Akexa said, “I’m not angry, just surprised”. She said, then looking at him, she added “So all this time, you were the mysterious CEO everyone keeps talking about?” “Something l

    As Alexa drove into the premises of Star Entertainment, both she and Viola couldn’t help but stare around in awe. The building stood tall and majestic, its glass walls reflecting the sky so beautifully that it almost looked unreal.“Wow”. Alexa breathed out slowly as she parked the car and said. “This place is really breathtaking.”Viola nodded in agreement, as her eyes began scanning the massive structure. “No wonder they are doing so well. Just look at this place.” She muttered and they both stepped out of the car and walked inside. The moment they entered the building, they were even more impressed. The interior was sleek and modern, and everyone they passed looked busy and focused. Some people were walking with tablets in their hands, others were on phone calls talking with companies, while some sat quietly at their desks working on their system.“No unnecessary noise or chaos,” Viola said softly with an impressed look. “Everyone is just working.”Alexa smiled and couldn’t he

    “VIP seats are reserved for investors, media partners, and special guests. The runway layout follows the design you approved earlier.”“Perfect,” Alexa smiled and said as she added. “Make sure everything runs smoothly. This show has to be flawless.”“Yes, Miss Grant,” the planner replied confidently.After a few more brief clarifications, Alexa stood up. “You can proceed as planned. If there’s any issue, contact me directly.”“Of course,” the planner said softly and stood up because their brief meeting was over. Giving her a small nod, Alexa turned and left heading to the private elevator because she needed to check other things, while the secretary escorted the event planner to the lobby. When Alexa got to her destination, she entered the department that was in charge of doing the invitation card to see how far they have gone because they need to send it out as soon as possible. Alexa smiled as she inspected the invitation card designs laid out on the desk. The team had done a go

    On Viola’s office floor, the left door close to her office was her personal studio.Inside the studio, only the soft hum of the air conditioner and the gentle noise of pencil against paper filled the room as it was totally silent.Viola, who was now wearing a comfortable set of shorts and blouse, sat at her wide worktable, with her hair tied into a loose bun as she focused on the sketch in front of her. Fabric samples were spread around her as she tried to choose among the silk, chiffon or lace.She leaned closer to the drawing and sighed softly. “This neckline still feels too heavy”. She murmured to herself and erased the neckline before redrawing it to her taste.Just then, her phone buzzed beside her but she ignored it at first and continued what she was doing when it buzzed again, distracting her from what she was doing. Viola frowned slightly and picked it up, glancing at the screen, she saw that it was a message from Alexa.Alexa: Don’t forget we are meeting the company by no

    Glancing at his wristwatch, Maxwell saw that they had spent up to two hours and he knew that it was already late because she has been here since.As much as he didn’t want the meeting to end, he knew they both had tight schedules or so he thought.So he cleared his throat lightly and leaned back on his chair.“I guess this is where the meeting ends,” he said softly, a small smile playing on his lips.Vivian wiped her lips with the napkin and nodded her head as she said, “Yeah, I guess so”. For a moment, there was silence between them as no one spoke.Then Maxwell leaned forward slightly and began saying, “So, when do we get to see each other again?”Vivian chuckled softly and shook her head as sge responded to him, “You are really straightforward, aren’t you?”Upon hearing this, he smiled and said to her, “I prefer honesty.”She rested her elbow on the table and replied calmly, “For now, the representative of the Anderson Group will be working closely with your company. I will be rea

  • Bound By Lies: His Brother’s Obsession    So Happy.

    Upon hearing her words, Maxwell raised his brows, clearly amused as he said with a light chuckle, “I should be offended or flattered.”“Oh please, you should be flattered,” Vivian said immediately. Saying this, they both laugh and begin talking as if they have known each other for ages. So after, he leaned forward slightly and asked, “So business first, or should we pretend this is a normal dinner?”Vivian smiled and replied to him, “We can mix both. After all, partnerships work better when the people involved can actually talk.”Maxwell nodded his head in agreement because she was correct.“I like that, most people just talk numbers and it gets boring.”“Well, numbers matter,” Vivian shrugged her shoulders and said as she continued, “but trust matters more. If we don’t understand each other, the partnership won’t last.”Maxwell watched her closely for a moment, clearly impressed with her choice of words.“You are different from what I expected.” He couldn’t help but say.Listening
