Noah walked into the office, William right on his heels, just in time to see Simon gripping Gideon's collar.

"What are you both doing?" Noah demanded.

Gideon's lip curled into a wicked smile that did not reach his eyes as he stared Simon down.

"I see thoughts of that night still haunt you, right?" Gideon whispered.

Simon's hold on Gideon's collar tightened as his eyes narrowed in anger.

"The next time you think to grab my collar will be the day you feel the h*ll you felt that night, Simon," Gideon threatened, his voice low and menacing.

Simon released Gideon and took a step back, a dangerous glint in his eyes. William hurried over to them and placed himself in front of Simon before the situation could get worse.

"That is no way to treat your cousin Simon, simply because you're his boss!" Paul snapped.

Simon could not believe his ears as he turned to Paul and asked, "Have you paused to analyze what his stupidity will cost us?"

"How is the extra cost his fault? You were the one who agre

    Anna glanced over at her phone and saw the call was from Michael."I'll excuse you to take your call." Nat mumbled at the expression on Anna's face.Anna picked up the call, stood up, and walked over to the window as she said, "Hello.""Hi Anna, how are you today?" Michael asked."I'm good, what's up?" Anna responded."Could you come up to my office for a second?" Michael asked.Anna glanced back at the room, seeing everyone occupied with work, and she replied, "Sure."It took about five minutes to get to Michael's office, where she found him staring at a pile of documents."Is something wrong?" Anna asked as she took her seat in front of his desk."No, of course not. Hmm, I only called to get an update on Alicia's invitation. The party is in two days; have you made up your mind?" Michael asked.Anna had totally forgotten about the invitation, and the truth was that she had not entirely made up her mind."I don't know," Anna muttered."I know how you feel, but it's best you attend a p

    They walked towards him, their faces blank, before stopping right in front of him and folding their little hands on their chests.“Why don’t you call?” James asked.He stood between Jasmine and Jayden, staring at Simon.“Call? Who?” Simon asked, unsure what they were talking about.“Don’t you have to call them?” Jayden asked.Simon was taken aback by that; he could not place what it was they were talking about.Simon looked around, trying to see if there was anyone that could come to take them, but there was no one around.He cleared his throat and said, “Uhm, I think you’ve got the wrong person. If this has anything to do with the class today, maybe you should…”“No, we don’t; you can do better,” Jasmine stated.They all walked over to him, tapped him on the hand, and turned back to head to class.By the time Simon walked down towards the reception area, he was dumbfounded.“Simon?” William called.He looked up at the sound of his name before walking towards William.“What’s wrong?

    Charlotte had her eyebrow raised in suspicion as she waited for her father to respond."It's from Alicia White and looks like it's happening in the next week," Mr. Hawthorne responded."Alicia White? That's new." Charlotte mumbled."I'm as surprised as you are, but she is a force to be reckoned with in the media space." Mr. Hawthorne stated."I know, Dad, I just didn't expect she would extend an invitation to us," Charlotte stated, rolling her eyes."Looks like there would be a lot of people in the media space invited. Alicia does know how to play her game," Mr. Hawthorne said in awe."She is the mastermind of games, everyone knows that, and I am not in the mood for it. I'm still trying to settle in." Charlotte said, waving her hand in dismissal."That's all the more reason to attend; no one knows the game she is trying to play this time around." Mr. Hawthorne mumbled."But why would she invite me to her event after she presented the award to Anna?" Charlotte asked."I don't know, but

    When the driver pulled up in front of the Parker Learning Center that morning, the triplets had a determined look on their faces.Around them, other children were eagerly walking into the building with the wide-open door. Their backpacks slung over their shoulders, they chatted excitedly with friends. The triplets quickly hopped out of the car, hurrying towards the door."Wait a minute." Loveth called out, stopping them in their tracks."Grandma, you already said goodbye in the car." James reminded her."I know, but I have not done this," Loveth stated as she kissed their head."Can we go now?" Jayden asked."Yes, and you have a nice day," Loveth called out to them as they walked away."We will," Jasmine responded over her shoulder."What's in that bag?" Loveth shouted, noticing Jayden's bag was a little bigger than the rest."It's my book and toy for the class," Jayden shouted in response, his lips lifting into a grin.Before Loveth could ask more, they were already at the door, so s

    Anna had a satisfied smile on her face as she stared at the documents in front of her.“What is it about?” Nat asked, her eyes twinkling with interest at Anna’s expression.“Looks like I just got my hand on a very confidential bid,” Anna replied.“I knew it was going to be something like that.” Clayton stated.“Why do you think it’s confidential?” Nat asked.“Well, because the recipient has been the beneficiary for a couple of years now, but now it’s up for a bid,” Anna explained as she glanced at the name on the file again.“And who is this recipient that is suddenly losing this bid?” Nat asked, her eyes narrowed in suspicion.“I think I know who it is.” Clayton murmured, looking at Anna in suspicion too.“Who?” Nat asked.“That should be the Parker group.” Clayton stated.Nat’s eyes turned to Anna quickly as she asked, “Are you serious?”“Yes, he is,” Anna responded.“Why would they be letting go of the Parker and putting it up for a bid?” Nat asked in shock.It didn’t take much to

    Simon stared at the flash drive, his eyes narrowed in question as he asked, “What answer?”“I finally have the pinpoint location of the attacker.” Steve replied.“Really? That was so fast,” Simon said.“I think the location would be more surprising; you should have a look,” Steve answered, handing the drive over to him.As they spoke, William’s phone vibrated in his pocket, and he stepped to the side of the office to check what the content of the text he got was about.“Where is the location?” Simon asked Steve.“You should see it yourself, because I’m still surprised also,” Steve replied.He walked over to Simon’s desk, stepping around it to stand behind his seat as Simon inserted the drive into his laptop and opened the file on it. There were a lot of things to sort through, but Steve navigated to the map and opened it.“Is that it?” Simon asked, his hand pointing to the red dot on the screen.“Yes,” Steve nodded.Simon stared at the name on the map for a few seconds before his eyes

    At the Howard house, Nancy walked into the house in the early hours of the morning, her eyes bloodshot.“Nancy? Where were you all night?” Cordelia asked, trying to keep her voice low.“I was out, where else? I’m heading up to my room,” Nancy responded, trading up the stairs.“Do you want your father to get pissed with you? Does he have to worry about you doing something stupid?” Cordelia asked in concern, following her up.Nancy chuckled, shaking her head as she replied over her shoulder, “You don’t need to worry about me.”“But your actions say otherwise, Nancy? Did something else happen at work?” Cordelia asked.Nancy got to her door, pulled it open, and walked in, dropping her bag on the floor as she fell into bed.“Something did happen.” Cordelia stared at Nancy’s silence.“Can we talk about this later, Mom? I’m fr*aking tired and need some sleep.” Nancy responded, her voice muffled by the bed.“Won’t you go to work?” Cordelia asked.“I took the day off,” Nancy replied.“What hap

    By the time Anna got to the office, there was a kind of ease about her that even Nat noticed. Clayton was not on the seat as Anna passed by his table.“Anna?” Nat called as she walked into the office.“Yes? Did anything unusual happen while I was away?” Anna asked.“No, nothing. I’m just glad to see you looking calmer than you did yesterday and this morning.” Nat responded.“Yeah, I guess so,” Anna mumbled.Anna dropped her bag on her table, pulled out her chair, and sat down. She felt like a heavy weight had been lifted off her shoulders.“Anna? Where did you go?” Clayton asked, coming into the room.“Should I not be asking you that same question?” Anna asked.“But I…” Clayton started to say.“Why don’t we get back to work?” Anna asked, smiling at them warmly.“I know there is something hidden behind that smile.” Clayton defended.“Did you find out anything about the envelope you gave to me?” Anna asked, changing the topic.“No, I told you he didn’t say anything to me.
