LOGINHi my dearest readers, happy readers. Blessings
At the Carson family residence, bathed in the warm light of the sunroom, Grandma Carson was enjoying a quiet afternoon tea with her daughter-in-law and her cherished granddaughter-in-love. The chaos of the mall felt miles away in this peaceful sanctuary.Rain set her porcelain teacup down with a soft click, then she looked at the elegant elderly woman and said, “Grandma, I am going back home tomorrow to prepare for your visit.”A soft, adoring smile spread across Grandma Carson's face as she looked at her precious granddaughter-in-law, and she murmured, squeezing her fingers gently, “I understand your heart, my sweet Rain. Go home tomorrow and get some rest.You shouldn't have to work so hard to prepare for us, my precious granddaughter. Let your brother handle the logistics.When my precious grandson and the rest of us arrive with the betrothal gifts on Saturday, I want you looking radiant and relaxed.You have survived so many storms, my granddaughter in love; now it is our turn to s
After Jasper left home, Gemma sat in the living room, lost in thought. At that moment, her phone started ringing. She smiled when she saw the caller ID and said, “Hello, Auntie. What a pleasant surprise.”Mrs Pearson's voice was filled with deep concern as she replied, “Hello, my dearest. I was shopping with friends at the mall yesterday, and my heart nearly stopped when I saw you on your knees before that beautiful young woman.I didn't dare to come near you because the Carson matriarch was right there with her. Who was she, Gemma? What happened?”The memory of the mall confrontation sent a wave of pure rage through Gemma, causing her to sob hysterically into the phone, and she replied, “That was Payton’s ex-wife, Auntie.I was just speaking up for Zara, and she completely abused her power. She forced me onto my knees right there at the mall.When I refused, she threatened to strip my husband of his career. However, she went ahead and fired my husband, Auntie. I have never suffered su
Director Marshall smiled broadly, and he replied, “Hello, Dr Finch. I am calling to inform you that you can disregard our earlier conversation entirely.Your position as a Paediatrician is perfectly secure. Miss Stanton just called me to officially rescind the termination directive.”Jasper froze, utterly stunned by the sudden turn of events. He gripped the phone tightly, his mind struggling to process the rapid reversal right in front of his watching family.His composure momentarily slipped into pure disbelief, and he repeated aloud, "Miss Stanton rescinded it?"At the mention of Rain's name, Gemma stopped sobbing, her eyes widening in shock as she looked up from her knees.Director Marshall confirmed over the line, “Miss Stanton explicitly stated that you are an innocent man and an exceptional doctor whose career should not be destroyed by your wife's malice.Dr Finch, your full medical privileges have been restored, effective immediately. We expect you back on shift tomorrow mornin
At that moment, Maddox gently pushed open the guest room door. The moment his grandmother informed him of the incident at the mall, he walked out of the boardroom without a second thought.Maddox closed the door softly behind him and crossed the room with swift strides. His eyes were full of protective devotion as he caught sight of her sitting on the sofa.He knelt right before her on the carpet; he reached up to gently cup her face in his warm hands.The moment he noticed the redness of her eyes, a piercing jolt of fury towards Gemma ripped through him, fuelling an intense desire to make her pay.His gaze locked onto hers with a depth of love that promised sanctuary, and he murmured, his voice thick with emotion as his thumb lightly brushed her cheek, “I am here, Sweetheart.I am so sorry I wasn't there to stand between you and that cruelty. She will pay for every single tear she made you shed today. You are completely safe now.”Rain leaned into his touch, completely letting go of h
Gemma lowered her head to hide her emotions and confessed the absolute truth. She explained how her deep-seated jealousy towards Rain Stanton had clouded her judgment.She detailed the horrific words she had spat at Rain, weaponizing the tragic death of an innocent child. Finally, she explained how her malicious tongue had cost her husband his prestigious position at the hospital.Gemma's mother covered her mouth in utter shame. She looked at her daughter with tear-filled eyes, devastated that the daughter she raised could be so cruel to a grieving mother.Her mother didn’t even offer her a shred of comfort, and she shouted, her voice trembling with rage, “Have you completely lost your mind, Gemma? How could you stand in a public place and mock the tragic death of an innocent child?Your husband worked himself to the bone to build a medical career, and you destroyed it with your venomous mouth.You have disgraced this family, and I don't blame my son-in-law for locking you out. You des
Director Marshall collapsed on his leather chair, his hands trembling as he stared at the closed-door Dr Finch had just walked through. The threat of a public, high-profile CCMA case hanging over the hospital was a complete nightmare.He swallowed the lump of panic in his throat, then he picked up the landline and dialed Miss Stanton’s number.The line rang twice before Rain answered, her voice calm, radiating the effortless poise of a woman in absolute control, “Hello, Director Marshall. I trust the matter has been handled.”Director Marshall wiped the sweat from his forehead, and he replied, his voice dropping to a panicked whisper, “Hello, Miss Stanton.I moved immediately to execute your directive, as requested. However, we have hit a severe legal complication with Dr Finch.Dr Finch caught us completely off guard, Miss Stanton. He refused to sign the termination paperwork.He stated that the hospital bypassed standard internal disciplinary protocols. He threatened to take this mat
In the living room, Rain was watching a television with Baby Colton sleeping in her lap. Butler Edward walked in front of Payton and said, “Miss Rain, Mr Phillips is here to see you.”Payton knelt on one knee and said, “My beautiful wife, I was wrong. Please forgive me. My life without you in it is
Payton greeted the Pearson family with respect, then he put the basket of fruit on the table. Mr Pearson smiled broadly and said, “What a pleasant surprise, Son. You have turned the Phillips Group around in just two years. I am so proud of you.”When Mr Pearson heard that the Phillips Group was prep
Jasper looked at his friend and replied, “She is in the VIP ward number 1201. I think Maddox paid for her private ward. How could an orphan afford the VIP ward?”Unbeknownst to them, the Stanton family had reserved the twelfth floor for the Stanton family members and relatives.Payton nodded his hea
Payton’s hands were trembling with anger, and his eyes were glued to Maddox’s gift. How could Rain give another man a gift without discussing it with him? Are they not husband and wife?Gemma sneered, disgust evident in her voice, “Maddox, don’t be deceived, these are not real diamonds but imitation
