MasukMerina MacGregor is doing some corporate espionage into O’Keefe Industries for MacGregor Industries, as Summer O’Neil, the personal assistant to Conner O’Keefe. Conner’s investigating a corporate saboteur. His father claims he’ll need Summer's help and Gabriella Mandela as his girlfriend. She's the daughter of a prospective partner. He doesn’t want either in his life. If the saboteur remains undiscovered, the Mandela family will assume control of O’Keefe Industries and MacGregor Industries will fall. Gabriella will do anything for her family. Including marrying Conner. She’s not fooled, something's wrong with Summer O’Neil. Conner knows he wants Summer in many unusual ways. The O’Keefe and MacGregor families were once inseparable until it ended. Conner and Merina were engaged and ready to unite their families. In their teens, the friendships ended, and the MacGregors whisked Merina off to boarding school. Merina’s back and expected a place within MacGregor Industries. Her father denies her a position. Merina learns MacGregor Industries is under attack and failing. Her father’s convinced it’s his archenemy and ex-friend. He believes in the O’Keefe family’s guilt. Merina isn’t sure. She strikes a deal with her father. She’ll prove the O’Keefe family isn’t guilty. If she finds the saboteur, he’ll give her a position within MacGregor Industries. Now undercover as Summer O’Neil, it grates Merina’s hide. Conner doesn’t recognize her. When will someone else recognize her? How much trouble will she be in? Can Summer help Conner find the saboteur? Is the same person attacking both companies? What will Conner do if he discovers Summer’s identity? Will the families’ secret pull them apart? Will they bring the two families together? How many ways does Conner want Summer?

Merina noticed her father wave at a man in a wheelchair who was being pushed by a female attendant. That was Ana’s father. He appeared to be headed into the house from somewhere in the garden. Today was Ana’s wedding and the hive of action revealed how close the ceremony was to take place. Merina and Conner had to hurry to get ready. The two grandfathers were taking care of their two little bundles, which worried Merina a little. Merina caught sight of their fathers showing off the babies to everyone who showed any remote interest. With that, the wedding planner whisked her and Conner off for the final preparations. Hair, makeup, dress, champagne, photographs became a whirlwind of excitement and activity. Security was exceptional, with news of Jeff’s wedding and news leaking about his new album. “It’s a perfect day for your weddin
[SIX MONTHS LATER] “That goes into the front living room by the main table. Please place gifts at the entrance. There’s a table for them there. Until it’s time to open them and then, while we are in the dining room having lunch, you’ll bring them into the front living room. Oh, I must go, the special guests have arrived.” Joyce said to her housekeeper as her staff rushed through her home, performing the last-minute preparations for the party. Many guests were here already and gathered in the front living room. Joyce, Merina, and Ana were all surprised to receive acceptance responses from RSVPs for their invitations. Instead of rejections or being ignored all together. Merina avoided the public eye as much as she could for the long months that the arrests and crimes made news. She didn’t want to deal with the media and the questions. Joyce could understand for Merina it’s far more complicated. She could only imagine an interview being like walking th
Jeff wanted to celebrate. His plans were going as expected. Ana agreed to marry him. He wanted everything perfect. Later that week after the party, Merina held her housewarming for their condo rebuild. Despite Merina being a wreck, it went off without a hitch. He’d learned from Conner that they’d confirmed that afternoon that Merina was pregnant. However, they didn’t know how far along she was yet. They’d have those results in a few days. He showed Ana around his home, pointing out the details he had overlooked before because of other priorities. She’d returned to the house and come prepared not to feel impressed about what he showed her. This house stood for their future and his first step towards stability in life, which Ana came to accept. “I don’t understand. If you record your album at the studio at the production studio, why do you need this room here?” “I don’t write in the studio. I don’t enjoy writing with background noise as it
Doctor Sutton arrived in less than an hour after his father called. Their fathers sat in the living room, refusing to leave until they learned what Merina had. They’d made a bet that she might be pregnant. Conner admitted they weren’t doing anything to his knowledge to prevent the pregnancy. But with all the stress and anxiety, she could have worn her immune system down and caught something. He didn’t remember her avoiding food or being ill. But Andre claimed her mother didn’t have morning sickness, so that changed nothing for him on what the cause of her illness could stem from. “Conner, I thought I said not to bother the doctor about this? If I still feel like this tomorrow, I’d make an appointment.” Merina said. Her voice appeared groggy and disgruntled to everyone. “It’s alright Mrs. O’Keefe. It’s better safe than sorry. I’m Doctor Sutton and I’m well paid for nights like this. It’s fine. Do you have any idea why you feel well? What
