The corridors of Anderson Global always had this sterile quiet around noon. Most of the staff were either at lunch or hidden behind frosted glass panels. I preferred it that way… it meant less chit-chat, less curious eyes. I clutched the thin manila folder in my hand… a revised schematic update for project’s upper level eco-balcony integration. It wasn’t urgent, but Richard had asked me to bring it up once it was ready, and I h

Richard’s POV “Your excellency I don’t think this will work well if we do it—““Richard you will do it this way and that’s final” he glared at me. Looking around, I sighed and flopped down in my chair. The boardroom. I hated it here. It smelled of polished wood and expensive lies.I sat at the head of the long table, fingers pressed against a stack of project files, trying very hard not to lose my temper. Across from me, Governor Hargrove leans back in his leather chair like he owned the air we all breathed.Maybe he thought he did.“The budget has been reviewed,” he said smoothly, adjusting his cufflinks. “We need to cut costs, Richard. The people won’t care whether the steel came from Germany or from here. A building is a building.”I stared at him.I shook my head. “No,” I said flatly. “A building is not just a building. This is a state hospital. People will trust their lives to those walls your e

He waved a hand in my face. “Tessa?”I kept staring.“Earth to Tessa?”I blinked hard, Malcolm’s hand waving right in front of my face like he was trying to pull me back from another planet became more real.“Are you even listening to me?” he asked, one blond brow lifting, that familiar teasing smile playing on his lips.God. He still looked unfairly good. He hasn’t aged at all.The sun hit his blond hair, making it almost glow, and those sharp grey eyes were fixed on me with the same intensity I remembered from years ago. I ca

I couldn’t shake off the thought that someone was staring at me but whenever I turned, I saw no one. I wiped my feet of sand and stood. Where did Harley go? She didn’t tell me to come to the beach, only to disappear. I grabbed my phone and walked towards the bar area. The feeling of sand on my feet made me want to melt. I wanted to put my hand between the sand and give it a gentle squeeze. There was always something about the beach that attracted me. That was why, when Harley called and asked that we celebrate Madam Clarisse’s absence, I immediately suggested the beach. I was discouraged but she pushed me to come out because she had this big beach for rich people. And to my surprise when we arrived, all I could see were people in magazines and on TV.“ Do you want anything?” a male bartender interrupted my thoughts. I smiled, my face was growing hot from embarrassment. “ How long have I been standing here?” “Yes, get me a pineapple cocktail.” I climbed onto one of those stools in f

Camilla’s POVSuddenly the house felt empty.I sat on the floor beside the bed, my back pressed against it, my phone still in my hand. I hadn’t even realized when I slid down there. One moment I was standing… the next, I just couldn’t anymore.The message was still open. I peeked at it. It was still staring at me.“Imagine Richard knowing you wanted to leave him at his lowest point.”A broken sound escaped my throat. I clasped a hand over my mouth. Richard would be distraught. A divorce now? We haven’t gotten to the point of no return. And even still.That was the one thing I never wanted him to find out like this.Tears blurred my vision as I pressed my palm against my mouth, trying to stop the sobs, but it was useless. Everything I had been holding in, his silence, our argument, the scandal, his mother, the lies, just crashed over me all at once.“If Richard finds out…” I whispered to myself. My chest tightened painfully. He saved us. To think I..I..was quick to toss him aside hurt

Camilla’s POVI cried out and showed my phone to Harley. “What the—” she glared as she went through the posts and comments. “These people must be crazy "She handed me my phone and took hers, and then began to go through it. “Oh my gosh, it is everywhere” Suddenly, her phone began to ring. “Excuse me” she said and walked away. I was anxious. And so I began to go through each comment on the post and my mental health went from 50 to – 100.“Camilla… give me the phone.” I looked up.Harley’s voice cut through the noise in my head, firm but not harsh. I hadn’t even realized how tightly I was gripping my phone until she gently pried it from my fingers.“No—wait—” I tried to reach for it again, panic rising in my chest. “I need to see—”“You don’t,” she said quickly, placing the phone face down on the table. “Not like this. Not when you’re already shaking.”I didn’t even argue.Because she was

Camilla’s POVI walked beside her in silence. It was torturous, if I might add.The gravel crunched under our feet as we moved past the front of our estate, the morning air cool against my skin. Anyone looking from a distance would think this was normal, two women taking a quiet walk.Only if they knew.Madam Clarisse didn’t speak immediately. It was annoying.She walked with her usual poise, chin slightly lifted, like she was above everything, including me.I didn’t say anything either. Waiting for her to break the ice. If she brought me out here to intimidate me, she was wasting her time.

"Fifty thousand, going once…" the host announced dramatically. Richard didn’t lift his paddle again. "Going twice…" I held my breath, feeling like I was watching two worlds I’d buried crash into each other. "Sold!

The next morning… the sun filtered through the linen curtains, soft and golden, like something out of a dream. Except I was wide awake. The kind of awake that came not from rest but from responsibility. I slid out of bed and moved through the house lik

The smell of garlic and fresh thyme filled the air, curling through the open plan kitchen as I stirred the sauce gently on the stove. Christine was by the sink chopping parsley, humming under her breath. The quiet rhythm of domestic peace. The kind of normalcy I’d spent years

I loved the restaurant for its silence. The kind of silence that forced you to listen to your own breathing, to the clink of forks in the distance, to the unspoken thoughts swelling between every line of conversation. It was intimate, yes... but not romantic. That was the trick. Soft enough to lo
