“Of course not, we wouldn't want that to happen again, Sophia’s late mother really did a lot to bring back the company to what it is today……in that case, we already know who we want as the new CEO” the first director said as he looked at other directors and then at Sophia and Bran.

*BRAN’S POV*

It was late now and all the directors exited the meeting room, to their various homes and other places while Sophia and I remained in the meeting room.

“Are you okay?” I asked Sophia as I caressed her cheek slightly with my finger.

She sat on the chair while I stood beside her, my left hand in my pocket.

“Hmm hmm,” she sounded and nodded her head positively.

“Okay, let's have dinner and head home alright?….. I'll tell the security details to clock off work,” I said with a smile.

I reached in for my phone from my pocket and was about to dial one of the security details numbers when Sophia slightly tugged at the edge of my suit.

“About that” she let out.

“What?” I asked, my gaze now shifted from

    *BRAN’S POV*Pierre walked into my office right after he knocked. I was already on my feet, so I grabbed my long brown coat and tried to wear it out as I walked towards the door.“Did you say she has been waiting?” I asked Pierre as he opened the door for me. “Yes sir, the appointment time was set to 2 pm sir. This is 10 minutes past 2 pm sir” Pierre said as he held the door until I walked out and he followed shortly after.Pierre drove me to a restaurant, a few blocks away from the company building and I immediately stepped in the moment I got down from the car.I searched for Mrs Brown’s daughter when I entered the restaurant and finally found her seated by the window, a couple of seats further from the entrance.I immediately walked up to her as she was lost in her thoughts.“Hi, I am very sorry that I arrived late,” I said as I took off my coat and sat right opposite her. “No no, it’s fine sir……I also just got here” she said calmly. “What would you like to have?” I asked her.“

    BRAN’S POV*“The doctor says he will be fine as long as he recovers well,” I said as I held her hand gently. “That’s good….., but I am worried and scared, Bran,” Sophia said as she looked at me.“You don’t have to be scared” I reassured her. “It could have been me right there on the sick bed or even worse, in a grave……..if you hadn’t suggested I ride with you, I would have been involved in that car accident, what would have become of me?” Sophia asked with worry weighing on her face and eyes.“Have you had the car checked?” I turned to Pierre and asked. “Yes sir, I had the car towed away to be checked before the authorities arrived and we found something sir” Pierre reported.“You found something?” I asked as Sophia’s and my eyes widened out of curiosity about what was found.“Apparently, the brakes of the car were tampered with” Pierre reported.“What!?” Sophia exclaimed.“The brakes were tampered with? But—but how could it have been tampered with? The car was parked in the compou

    *SOPHIA’S POV*“Do you know how much I have treasured that word and the fact that I had a sister?” I turned to my father and asked.“If you truly treasure the fact that she is your sister, then you would know to give up the CEO position to her; she is your older sister, Sophia,” my father persuaded me.I suddenly let out a smirk without even knowing it.“Give up the position for her?….. Nah, I am done giving up anything else for Henna” I said sternly.“I just knew it! I knew you had only been pretending to love our family!…..now she is clearly showing us her true colours, Dad!” Henna said as she pointed at me. “Sophia! What do you mean you are done giving up anything for Sophia? What exactly have you ever given up in the first place!?” my father asked, his tone higher than usual. “I can't even keep count! I can't even keep count of how many things you have made me give up so Henna could be happy!…… I met Bran first! And you knew this, Henna! But your covetous self wouldn't let you,

    *SOPHIA’S POV*Bran couldn’t answer the question I asked because he knew he would have no control over it if I were in that car. He finally drove me down to my father’s company and walked me into the building and to the meeting room. I stood by the door and hesitated for a while. A lot of thoughts crossed my mind at that point and I couldn’t help but wonder how my car suddenly had an issue big enough to cause an accident. “Are you okay?” Bran asked me as he turned me away from the door to face him. I looked up at him, eyes filled with skepticism, and concern. I nodded my head in agreement with a smile. “You’ve got this babe,” Bran said to me and kissed me which I reciprocated and smiled. I turned back to the door, turned the doorknob, and opened the door as I walked into the meeting room, which was filled with all the board directors, my father, and then Henna.I walked over to the only empty seat in the room as Henna’s poise changed the moment she saw me. She suddenly became s

    *SOPHIA’S POV*“I remember what I said Liam,” I said with little energy.“Then what went wrong Sophia? You are not seriously thinking of going back on your word, are you? Stepping back into the exact thing that had you depressed and lost?” Liam argued.“It is different now, Liam……” I said “How? What makes it different now that you can not even consider yourself?” Liam asked, obviously getting frustrated.“Bran!….. Bran makes it different now, I didn’t think I would end up getting married to him” I said as I tried to hide my breath from shaking.Liam scoffed“Of course, it has always been about him……six years ago and even now, your world keeps revolving around him and it doesn’t seem healthy, Sophia” Liam persuaded.“If I don’t step in, then everything my mom ever worked for the company goes to waste. I can’t let my step-sister and my father ruin all of that,” I tried to convince him.“I don’t know how else I can make you see that all I ever want for you is your safety and happiness….

    *BRAN’S POV*“You heard me right Henna…… have you forgotten that Sophia is also a Tyler by blood and name?” I asked her.Henna became too stunned to speak as she didn’t think I nor Sophia would be interested in the nomination. “Of course, I know why you are here……hoping to get your hands on the rights to ownership and use them to your advantage during the election process. News flash: They weren’t yours in the first place,” I said.“And it was yours? I don’t even see reasons why you are so keen on getting involved in our family matters Bran” Henna snapped and said.“Sophia is my wife! And therefore when it comes to matters that involve her safety or her rights, I would readily and be fully involved!…....you let that sink into your head, Henna” I said as I pointed at her.“You will regret ever choosing her over me, Bran!” Henna yelled and exited my office angrily. *************************************************************It was night and Liam was seen seated on a bar stool at his
