The launch date was getting closer every minute.

Everything was happening at once. Meetings here, calls there, running up and down... back and forth. It felt like my whole body had been drained. I was always tired. Every single day.

I got home late that night, dragging my feet like I had weights tied to them. The moment I stepped in, I dropped my bag, kicked off my heels and collapsed right on the couch with a loud sigh.

Tricia walked in from the kitchen with a glass of cold water. She handed it over to me like she already knew what I needed.

“Drink this, girl. Then go take a shower. I already made dinner for you and Donald.”

I took the glass and drank like my throat had been dry for years. “You’re too sweet. Honestly. Thank you for moving in with me, Tricia.”

She smiled and flopped down beside me. “You won’t regret it, babe. You’re stuck with me for life now.”

I chuckled. “And Josh?”

“Oh, I tucked him in just before you came in. He slept off watching cartoons.”

“Aww. Thank you, love.

  • MOAN For me MONALISA    chapter 108

    Jayden’s knuckles slammed into the cold wall with a loud thud, the pain shooting up his arm like a knife. He let out a low scream, not loud enough to cause a scene, but loud enough to let the fury boil over.He stood there for a second, breathing hard, his chest rising and falling like a man who was barely hanging on.Athena stood just a few feet away, frozen in place. She didn’t say a word. She just watched him fight with something deep inside. He wasn’t just angry. He was bleeding on the inside. And she could feel it.Jayden dragged in a deep breath and pulled out his handkerchief. He wiped his bleeding knuckles slowly, like he was trying to wipe the whole moment away.But then he froze.His eyes lifted.And there she was.Monalisa.Walking toward him, hand-in-hand with Donald, like nothing ever happened between them. Like she didn’t leave him with a wound that never healed. Like she wasn’t the reason he still couldn’t sleep at night.Jayden’s entire body stiffened.His fingers clen

    "Where is that kid? Where did he run off to?" Melissa's voice trembled as she paced around the crowded hall, her eyes darting left and right.Her heart thudded against her chest."Oh God. Monalisa is going to murder me. What do I even tell her? That I lost her son at her own fashion launch?"She stood still, one hand on her hip, the other brushing her hair back from her face as panic took over. Around her, the place buzzed with excitement. Glamorous guests walked around, flashes popped from cameras, music played softly in the background, and models prepared backstage. But none of it mattered to Melissa right now.She was losing her mind."No. Standing here won’t help me. I have to find him."Her voice cracked as she shouted, “Joshua! Joshua, where are you?”She spun around and started running down a hallway. Then, without warning, she collided into someone. The impact nearly knocked her over."Are you blind?" she snapped without thinking."Blind?" the guy scoffed. "You bumped into me.

    Jayden couldn't stop glancing at his wristwatch. His heart beat a little faster as the seconds ticked away. He was almost late. He hated being late. Not for events like this. Not when the entire industry would be watching.His phone buzzed."Sir, we’re already at the lobby. Miss Athena is with me," his chauffeur said over the line.Jayden ran a hand through his hair and reached for his jacket. He snatched it off the hanger and shoved his arms into the sleeves, letting the tailored fabric hug his frame. His reflection in the mirror barely caught his attention. Tonight wasn't about vanity. It was about power. Presence.He adjusted his cufflinks with swift movements and took one last deep breath before stepping out of his hotel suite. The elevator ride was silent except for the soft ding of each floor he passed.When he reached the lobby, he found Athena already waiting. Her long gown shimmered under the chandelier lights. She looked… stunning.His three black luxury cars were parked rig

    The meeting with the investors had gone smoothly. For once, Jayden didn’t have to fake too many smiles or argue his way into getting the last word. Everything had fallen right into place. They agreed with his terms, trusted his projections, and even praised his vision for the next phase of the company.It was one of those rare meetings that ended on a good note.As the last investor stepped out, Jayden exhaled and leaned back in his chair, silent for a moment. Athena, who had been quietly taking notes and managing the presentation slides, began to gather his things. She packed the tablet, folded up his suit jacket, tucked the loose files into his briefcase, and slung her bag over her shoulder.Without saying a word, she turned and walked out of the restaurant to wait by the car. The sun outside was already heating up, casting long shadows across the pavement. The streets were busy, people rushing about their day, completely unaware of the silent storm brewing inside Jayden's mind.He

    "Good morning, Tricia. Have you seen Donald around?"I stood in the hallway, arms folded across my chest, my eyes scanning the house like I'd catch him hiding behind the curtains."Who? Donald? Nope, haven’t seen him all morning. Why?" Tricia responded, casually sipping her coffee like nothing was wrong.I let out a frustrated sigh and ran my fingers through my hair, already dialing his number again. "I can’t seem to reach him. He’s not picking up his phone. We planned on heading out early to inspect the building, make sure everything is set for the fashion line launch. Now, I’m just standing here... waiting.""Still not picking up?"I frowned. "No. Ugh, come on, Donald, where the hell are you?"Just then, Josh walked in, half-eaten toast in hand."Mum, you look kinda stressed. What's going on?"I gave him a small smile to keep him from worrying. "It’s nothing, baby. Just trying to reach your dad."Josh wiped his mouth and said, "Dad? I think I just saw him drive in."I froze. "You sa
