*BRAN’S POV*

The meeting with the bidding competition committee finished, and Pierre entered the meeting room right after the members left.

“Sir, I just got a call from the security details” Pierre reported.

“What did they say?” I asked as I stood from my seat.

“Mrs Sophia went to a fabrics and material factory” Pierre reported.

“A fabric factory?” I asked as I was surprised Sophia had to go herself.

“Yes sir…..I looked into the factory and it turned out to be the same factory that was to supply Hems and Halo with the material they need” Pierre reported.

“Then why was she there herself? Aren’t they the ones supposed to deliver the materials?” I tried to understand the reason.

“Apparently, they—they haven’t made the delivery of the materials yet. I believe that is why Mrs Sophia went in person” Pierre said, a bit skeptical about my reaction.

“What? Why haven’t they delivered the agreed materials? The design launch is in a couple of days” I said as I found it shocking.

    *SOPHIA’S POV*“I am so sorry ma…… I really had no idea” Jo immediately apologized to me.Bran stood in front of me, quite confused as to why Jo was apologizing.“What happened?” Bran asked Jo.“It's nothing serious” I quickly chipped in with a smile so Bran doesn't take offence.“I am really sorry sir, I didn't know she was Mrs Sophia” Jo apologized to Bran.“Oh………well that's fine, now you know her and can recognize her right?” Bran asked jokingly.“Yes sir, I won't make such a mistake again” Jo pleaded. “It's fine………. let us get inside shall we?” Bran turned to the men and asked. They all nodded in agreement and walked back into the meeting room as Bran and I followed, still confused and curious as to why Bran had invited me.We all got into the meeting room and took our respective seats. “Thank you all for showing up even at such short notice” Bran appreciated them.“You gave us reasons why we should be here, I believe those reasons were candid enough for me,” the first director

    *BRAN’S POV*“Mr Bran, if you don't mind me asking, who is this candidate you have in mind to nominate?” the first man asked.“I will be transferring the rights to ownership of Mr Tyler’s company to my wife, Sophia,” I said, my back still rested.The directors were stunned as they looked at each other out of surprise.“Did you say you would be transferring the rights to ownership to Mrs Garner?” the third man asked. “On what grounds Mr Bran? Having just the right to ownership isn't all it would take sir” the first man asked.“Bring me the document that is on my laptop” I signalled Pierre to get me the document I had prepared beforehand on the table.Pierre walked over to my table and fetched the document right where I described it was and handed it over to me.I collected the document and handed it over to the first director. He collected it from me and skimmed through it, while others became curious about its content as well.“She is the highest shareholder?” the first man asked out

    *BRAN’S POV*“Does anyone else know about this?” I asked immediately.“No sir, she thought no one would believe her and fortunately, I had dropped my card with her the last time we met and told her to call me if anything shows up,” Pierre said.“That is good, now we need to keep it that way……find some time on my schedule this week to meet with her. We need to see whatever it is she saw on that chip” I ordered.“Yes sir” Pierre answered.“In the meantime, I need you to send someone over to keep an eye on her and keep her safe…....if truly Mr Brown’s death was not natural, then whoever was responsible would keep his eyes out for any leaks” I ordered Pierre.“Yes sir, I will do that first thing in the morning,” Pierre said.“No, do it now,” I said.“Yes sir” Pierre answered.I hung up the call and wondered what it could be that was caught on this said chip. I then remembered that Sophia was downstairs and seeing that she had not come upstairs in a long time, she must have fallen asleep

    *BRAN’S POV*I reached out for her hand and held it gently and warmly.“I have decided to return your Dad’s company,” I said, my eyes still focused on hers.Sophia was surprised when she heard that from me.“Are you being serious right now?” Sophia asked me, a hint of doubt lingered in her words.“Yes, I figured, what was the point?…… you being back with me was all I wanted and now you are right next to me, Sophia…. I am sorry I had to use your Dad’s company to coerce you into marrying me” I apologized and rubbed her hand gently.“No no, you don't have to apologize……in as much as you used my Dad’s company to make me marry you, it was still my decision to go ahead with it” Sophia chipped in.“I am sorry” I apologized again.“But, what about my Dad’s debt? He is still indebted to you Bran” Sophia asked.“That doesn't matter, I am willing to do more if that would mean spending the rest of my life with you Sophia” I defended.“But—” Sophia got cut short.“There are no buts, Sophia……..the

    Jane was quite occupied in the bar section of the house, pouring herself a glass of bourbon when Tom returned home.Tom sighted her where she stood, drinking a glass of bourbon and approached her. Jane knew he had returned but didn't even turn to look at him or welcome him.Tom got to where she stood, slid his hands around her waist and pulled her back, closer to himself, his face leaned in on the back of her shoulder and his lips gently kissed her neck subsequently.“I have missed you” Tom let out beneath the kisses.Jane placed the glass of bourbon on the bar counter and tried to remove Tom’s hands that clung to her waist but Tom held on.“I am sorry, I am sorry okay?” Tom said as he turned Jane to face him.Jane threw her face away and didn't want to maintain eye contact with Tom.“Look, I know—I know that these habits of mine must have caused you some distress but I am really trying to put a leash on that habit,” Tom said convincingly.“Put a leash on the habits of having affairs?

    *SOPHIA’S POV*Days passed and it was finally the day the materials would supposedly come in from Cuba. I wrapped up what I was doing at the office as I wanted to be the one to pick the materials up.Just then a call from Liam came in and I picked it up.“I was just about to round things up and pick up the materials,” I said as I tried to assemble some documents.“Pick up the materials? Yourself?” Liam asked.“Yeah, I am almost done,” I said and continued what I was doing. “But that won't be necessary Sophia…… I already discussed with him and he will be shipping the materials directly to your company's address” Liam said over the phone.“But—” I got cut short.“There are no buts, Sophia, you don't really expect me to watch you stress yourself over those materials…….
