FIFTEEN
No sooner had Jane pushed past the massive lilac double door was she assaulted by an overly eager crowd of journalists.
“Mrs Winters! Here!” Snap! Flash! Snap!
“One for the camera Mrs Winters! Absolutely gorgeous!” More flashes of blinding light.
Jane had to maneuver and dodge her way through the crowd all the while trying to balance the tray of food and cup of tea. By the time she reached the conference table, there was only half a cup of tea left. Some had splashed onto the carpeted floor, and a great volume had landed on Jane’s skirt and toweled hand but as she handed the cup to a scowling Daniel, his eyes fell on her hand.
The scowl deepened even further. “What happened?” he snapped, his voice low enough so no one would hear him barking at her.
Jane’s hand immediately dropped to her sides as soon as the plate of goodies was laid in front of him. The crowd went ‘awwww’ seeing how sweet the new wife was to her husband and continued snapping

Little Timmy was crying. It was a sound that broke every mother’s heart, but it was also a sound that made Daniel Winters want to break every china in his penthouse. The moment both he and Jane stepped through the elevator door to his penthouse, Pepper Potts came stumbling, her mousy hair looking even more unruly than usual. Her cat eyeglasses was also lopsided and spits of milk graced her usually polished attire. Granted, his secretary wasn’t the neatest of all his employees, but this was the first time he saw her looking like someone who had just clawed her way out of a crocodile-infested jungle.“Mrs Winters! Help! Little Timmy won’t sleep anymore..” she shouted in anguish and running up to Jane with flailing arms. “He’s just…just crying!”She grabbed both of Jane’s hands, oblivious that one of Jane’s hands had been scalded. From the corner of his eye, Daniel saw Jane wince slightly before she put on

The dinner at the Winters family’s colonial mansion felt more like a warzone than it did a family gathering. As she sat in the gigantic dome of a banqueting hall, Jane meekly raised her head from her shiny empty plate and her pulse raced as she took a peek at the sea of unfriendly faces that surrounded the long banqueting table. There were nearly ten pairs of eyes that roamed her face making Jane cringe and feeling her skin crawl under their scrutinizing stares. The magnificence of the large cobalt blue and green stained windows and the fresh roses that surrounded the room did nothing to ease her nerves. A butler came up to her and placed a plate of caviar in front of her.“Thank you,” she mouthed to the haughty looking butler who seemed to have lost the ability to smile.On her left was Daniel, dressed immaculately in a simple but elegant white polo and a pair of dark blue jeans. He ignored everyone and dug into his food. And on her rig

They ended up at a retro diner not far from Daniel’s penthouse. Word had it that the chef had resigned from a five star Michelin restaurant in New York to realize his childhood dream. The place was tiny though, big enough for only eight patrons at a time and patrons usually had to book a month in advance to secure a reservation. But the owner of Mike’s Diner was an old friend of Daniel’s and the cheerful man welcomed the trio and baby Timmy with open arms. “Come! Come! Take a seat!” the bald chef in a black tank top ushered them in through the neon green swing doors and into a brightly lit eatery where a jukebox played to the groovy sound of music. “Leanne! Three double patties and chocolate milkshakes! Let’s fatten these kids up!” Baby Timmy started to cry and Daniel shot the chef a murderous look before storming over to the jukebox and yanking off the wires. The thing was too bloody loud! From the corner of his eyes, he saw Jane quickly fish

It had been an exhausting day and Jane was tired. She hadn’t been sleeping well the past few nights either. Granted, the bed was comfortable but this just wasn’t her house. Couple that with all the crazy happenings that had taken place, Jane was surprised she was still able to stand on her feet. A dull monotonous buzz began to sound in Jane’s left ear. She shut her eyes momentarily and tilted her head slightly to one side trying to will the buzzing sound to end. “Jane? Jane!” Her head snapped to attention at Daniel Winters’ voice. He was frowning at her. Why is he always frowning? she wondered. She wished he would smile a little, he looked much better when he smiled. She shifted little Timmy’s carrier and strained to hear what Daniel was saying. “I’m sorry, what did you say? My ear’s blocked,” she told him. As a child, Jane feared the ringing in her ears the most, for after the ringing would come a partial hearing loss, followed by ex

A FEW HOURS EARLIER. “Mr Winters, I simply cannot accept your terms. The price is too low!” a wrinkled hand slammed onto the large mahogany table in the meeting room of fifteen people. All around the table, everyone had their heads down. Save for one man at the head of the table. Daniel Winters raised an eyebrow as he twirled his shiny metallic laser pen, calmly staring at the enraged man who was coughing slightly. Behind his black leather chair, sunlight streamed in through the glass walled meeting room, casting a warm sunny glow to the otherwise cold and tension filled meeting. “Mr Winters, do you take me for a fool? Your company is going to reap millions, if not billions from this project and yet you’re only offering me peanuts for the sale of MY land?!” the man slammed at the table again and Pepper Potts jumped in her seat. Daniel smirked, ignoring the look of terror on his PA’s face. “It’s because I’m NOT taking you for a fool that Winters

“Mr Winters?” It was Pepper again. She poked her head through his office timber door, nervously grinding her fingers against the stainless steel fixtures on the doorknob.“WHAT?” Daniel looked up from his files, a perpetual frown on his face.“Um..don’t forget the gala at seven tonight.”Daniel groaned, he hated charity galas. He didn’t understand why he had to go, he’d already sent them a cheque. Why couldn’t they just leave him alone? The only thing good about the galas were the women but he didn’t have a –Partner.He raised his chin.I’m married. I have a partner. “Pepper, call Jane. Tell her to get ready for the dinner tonight.”A look of utter horror crossed Pepper’s face. “She doesn’t have a phone, Mr Winters.”“WHAT?!!” His voice boomed across the room.His PA&rsq

The massive double door opened to a grand hall where brightly lit chandeliers hung from a sky-high ceiling with cloud murals, bringing life to the elegantly decorated ballroom. All around, people in evening gowns and suits swayed to the melodious tunes played by violinists and cellists.Jane’s eyes widened as she marvelled at the tastefully decorated interiors of the ballroom with a sea of red carpet and golden sculptures of angels complete with engravings at the sides of the circular walls.“You like it?” Daniel’s deep baritone broke through Jane’s awe and she blushed, embarrassed by her obvious ogling of the ballroom.“Yes, it’s beautiful…” she gushed before her inner nerd surfaced and took over. “Artio Palladio was only twenty two when he was commissioned to design the interiors of this great hall. His work is famous! No one’s ever come close to matching the magic he weaves whenever he &hellip

Jane was torn between two men. Like literally. On one hand, Daniel was holding her with a vicelike grip, and on the other, Wayne was still holding onto her outstretched arm. She felt like a stuffed doll in the middle of a tug of war between two children. Yes, the two grown men were behaving like little children. What was she? Some toy? Pfft. “Excuse me, gentlemen,” she said through gritted teeth and wriggled herself free from both their grasps. Both men’s eyes fell on her, confused by her sudden reaction and as if on cue, they both frowned. Oh boy Jane, you’ve done it now. You’ve just offended two Mr Winters. You’re in deeeeep shit. She forced an awkward laugh and stole a glance at both men but none of them returned her laughter and she quickly clammed up and gulped. A drop of sweat trickled down her neck and she scrambled to find a way out of the sinkhole she had dug herself into. Her saving grace came when her eyes fell on a lanky waiter wi
