He cleared his throat, his expression serious as he broached the topic that had been on his mind for weeks."Mom, there's something I need to talk to you about," Luke began, his voice steady but tinged with anticipation.Claire arched an eyebrow, her attention fully focused on her son. "What is it, Luke? You look like you've got something important on your mind."Luke took a deep breath, steeling himself for the conversation ahead. "I've been thinking a lot about Nelly lately," he admitted, his words measured as he chose them carefully.Claire's eyes widened in surprise, but she remained composed. "Nelly? What about her?"Luke hesitated for a moment before plunging ahead. "I want to marry her, Mom," he declared, his tone leaving no room for argument.Claire's initial shock gave way to a knowing smile, and she nodded approvingly. "I've always thought Nelly was
As the news broke that the investors had decided to work with Luke, a sense of triumph washed over him. With a smug grin, he wasted no time in dialing Martins' number, eager to rub his victory in his face."Martins, it's Luke," he said, his voice laced with arrogance as soon as Martins answered the call. "I just wanted to let you know that the investors have agreed to move forward with the project. Looks like they saw the potential in working with a real winner."Martins chuckled on the other end of the line, his tone light and amused. "Well, congratulations, Luke," he replied, his voice tinged with sarcasm. "I'm sure you'll do a fantastic job leading the project."Luke's grin widened at Martins' response, relishing in his victory. "Oh, I have no doubt about that," he said, his tone dripping with arrogance. "But I have to admit, it feels good to come out on top, especially after all the trouble you caused."Martins laughed again, his laughter echoing through the phone. "Trouble? Oh, p
As Luke sat in his office, his phone buzzed with a message from his assistant. He picked it up and read the text: "Martins is giving up on the project."A surge of excitement coursed through Luke's veins as he read the words. Finally, after weeks of intense rivalry, it seemed like victory was within his grasp. He leaned back in his chair, a triumphant smile spreading across his face."Finally," he muttered to himself, feeling a sense of relief wash over him. "Martins is throwing in the towel."He quickly composed a reply to his assistant, instructing them to schedule a meeting with the investors to finalize the project. With Martins out of the picture, it was time to seal the deal and claim his victory.As he waited for a response, Luke's mind wandered back to the events that had led to this moment. The feud with Martins had consumed him for far too long, distracting him from his goals and clouding his judgment.But now, with Martins backing down, Luke felt a weight lift off his shoul
Martins and Luke found themselves embroiled in a bitter rivalry that consumed their every waking moment. Their feud played out not only in the boardroom but also in the corridors and coffee shops of their corporate headquarters."You think you can outsmart me, Martins? Think again," Luke sneered, his voice dripping with contempt as he confronted his rival in the break room.Martins shot him a steely glare, his jaw clenched in determination. "I don't have to think, Luke. I know I can beat you," he shot back, his tone laced with defiance.Their exchanges were filled with biting sarcasm and thinly veiled threats as they vied for dominance. Every interaction was fraught with tension, each man refusing to give an inch to the other.As they poured over the details of their proposals, their conversations were punctuated by heated debates and impassioned arguments. They sparred over strategy and tactics, each trying to gain the upper hand."I've got you backed into a corner, Martins. Admit it
Martins sat in his office, his mind seethed with rage and determination. He knew that he couldn't bring Carina back, but he could make sure that those responsible for her death faced justice. And at the top of his list was Luke MayfairWith a steely resolve, Martins set his sights on dismantling Luke's empire piece by piece. He had heard through the grapevine about a lucrative contract that Luke had been vying for, and he saw it as the perfect opportunity to strike a blow against his enemy.Gathering his team, Martins worked tirelessly to put together a proposal that would outshine anything Luke could come up with. They poured over every detail, leaving no stone unturned as they crafted a pitch that was both compelling and flawless.Finally, after days of relentless effort, Martins was ready to submit his proposal to the investors. With a sense of satisfaction, he hit send, knowing that this could be the first step towards bringing Luke to his knees.As expected, the investors were im
the day of Carina's funeral had finally arrived. Madam Katie, accompanied by Martins, made their entrance into the funeral venue, their footsteps echoing softly against the hallowed ground. The Westwood family stood somberly nearby, their faces etched with grief and sorrow.Nelly, engrossed in her phone, seemed detached and disinterested, her attention elsewhere as the world mourned the loss of her sister. Luke and Claire entered alongside Leah, their presence a stark reminder of the fractured family dynamic that Carina had left behind. The guests, some murmuring amongst themselves, cast curious glances at the unexpected sight of Carina's former marriage being acknowledged.As Madam Katie and Martins approached the Westwoods, the air was heavy with unspoken tension. Greetings were exchanged in hushed tones, the weight of grief hanging heavily over each word spoken. Despite the shared loss, there was an undeniable undercurrent of unease between the two families, each grappling with the
Martins sat alone in his dimly lit room, his eyes fixed on the television screen as the news anchor reported the latest developments in Carina's case. His heart felt heavy as he listened to the details of her body being identified.Unable to bear the weight of his emotions alone, Martins reached for his phone and dialed Madam Katie's number. He could hear the tremor in her voice as she answered, and his own voice was barely a whisper as he spoke."They found her," Martins said, his words heavy with sorrow.Madam Katie let out a choked sob on the other end of the line, her grief palpable even through the phone. "I still can't believe it," she managed to say between tears.Martins felt a lump form in his throat as he struggled to find the right words to comfort her. "I can't believe it either," he admitted, his voice cracking with emotion.For a moment, they remained silent, both lost in their own thoughts and grief. Martins could hear the faint sound of Madam Katie's ragged breathing,
The aircraft circled above the vast expanse of the ocean, its engines roaring against the backdrop of the endless blue. On board, the search team, equipped with advanced technology and unwavering determination, scanned the waters below for any sign of Carina Westwood's body.Captain Reynolds, a seasoned pilot with years of search and rescue experience, commanded the operation from the cockpit. Beside him, Lieutenant Ramirez, the lead navigator, studied the radar readings and plotted the search grid meticulously."We've covered a significant area already, Captain," Lieutenant Ramirez reported, his voice tinged with frustration. "But there's still no sign of her."Captain Reynolds sighed, his brow furrowed with concern. "Keep at it, Lieutenant. We can't afford to give up. Carina's family deserves closure."Below deck, the search team members huddled around monitors displaying sonar images of the ocean floor. Every blip, every shadow, held the potential to be the elusive clue they were s
Madam Katie and Martins sat together in his house, the weight of Carina's absence hung heavily in the air. Martins's eyes were red and swollen from crying, and Madam Katie's cheeks were streaked with tears. They clung to each other, seeking solace in their shared grief."What if she never went to London?" Martins whispered, his voice choked with emotion. "What if I had stopped her?"Madam Katie's breath caught in her throat, her heart aching at the thought of what might have been. "It's not your fault, Martins," she said softly, her voice trembling. "You couldn't have known..."Martins shook his head, his hands clenched into fists. "But I should have known," he said bitterly. "I should have been there for her."Madam Katie reached out to touch Martins's shoulder, her own tears flowing freely now. "You did everything you could, Martins," she said, her voice filled with anguish. "You loved her with all your heart."Martins bowed his head, his shoulders shaking with sobs. "I promised to
