Author's POV:Wendy's heart raced as she realized the implications of Sandra's words. "What do you mean? What have you been putting in my tea?"Sandra answered readily. "It's just a little poison, ma'am. Just enough to make you weak and reliant on Cole."Wendy swallowed but she didn't say anything. This was just too much to take in. "Dr Cole? He's your boyfriend, isn't he?" She asked, her mind racing."Yes, ma'am. And he's been after your fortune for years. We figured if we could get you dependent on him, he could convince you to change your will in his favor. To do that we had to poison you."The cup fell from Wendy's hand and broke on the floor. She couldn't find her ground anymore. It was almost as if she was going to faint any seconds now. "E-explain something I don't know," Wendy stuttered. "My mysterious illness for the past six years, was it because of the tea?"Sandra smiled widely. "Yes indeed. Since Cole was the only Dr whom attended to you, no one else could've figured i

He had been assigned to lead the investigation into the abduction of Reiner's wife and he knew he had to get to the bottom of it quickly.He leaned back in his chair and let out a sigh. This case was proving to be more difficult than he had initially thought. He couldn't help but feel a sense of unease.

Author's POV:Sylvester sat quietly in the corner of the room, his eyes fixed on his grandmother as she slept fitfully in the large, four-poster bed. The sound of her labored breathing filled the air, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of guilt wash over him. He knew he should have insisted on taking her to the hospital years ago, but she had been so insistent on staying at home and he had caved in to her wishes.This was why he hired Cole, a medical specialist whom was referred to him by a friend.

Laura's POV: The thugs had moved me from the cave to a waiting truck. Initially, I thought maybe I was finally going to be let free but I was wrong. We didn't head back to the mansion as I was expecting. Instead we drove into an abandoned farm house at the outskirts of sun island. "What are we doing here?" I asked suspiciously. My mind couldn't work. It was as if I was being stored in a deep freezer. The head thug turned to me with a sneer in his voice. "If you don't shut up now, I'm going to put a bullet to your head."I didn't say anything because I knew if I wasn't careful with this guy, I might end up with a bullet in my head. "Where the hell is Fred?" he demanded from the driver as the truck pulled up. "He must be inside the house," the driver answered, jerking his thumb at the car parked behind them. From inside the house, I saw a young man running towards where the truck stood. I regarded him with interest. He was to me, one of the most good-looking guys I've ever seen.
Laura's POV:Two weeks after I got rescued, Wendy threw a big party on the island. We were celebrating because none of us believed we would make it out alive from the cruel hands of fate. Everyone involved with Molly was arrested and locked up in jail, awaiting trial. I had recovered from my shock and regained my strength back again. At the party, Sylvester and Reiner made up and so did Mariah and I. We became quite close. On the face of things, all looked well. Suddenly Reiner did something I never imagined he would do in public. He knelt down on one knee in front of his me, his eyes filled with emotions as he took my hand in his. Our whole family was gathered around us, watching in silence as the Reiner begged for my forgiveness."I am so sorry, my love," he said, his voice choked with emotion. "I never should have ignored your feelings and neglected you the way I did. You are the most important person in my life and I promise to always be there for you, to listen to you and
Reiner's POV:I stood at the altar of the grand church, my heart racing with anticipation. I couldn't believe that I was about to marry my once divorced wife, Laura, again. It had been a long and difficult journey to get to this point, but we had both realized that we still loved each other deeply and wanted to spend the rest of our lives together.As Laura made her way down the aisle, I couldn't help but feel overwhelmed with emotion. She looked absolutely stunning in her white wedding dress, her long brown hair flowing behind her as she walked. When she reached my side, I took her hand and we turned to face the pastor.The ceremony was beautiful, filled with love and joy. As we exchanged vows, I couldn't help but get teary-eyed.

Reiner's POV:The sun was just beginning to peek over the horizon as the sleek black limousine pulled up to the curb outside of the exclusive private school. The driver stepped out and opened the door, revealing inside, my young son sitting beside me.I glanced down at my boy. "We're here, Billy. Are you ready?"Billy nodded even though he looked nervous. I won't say I blamed him. It was his first day in school. He has every right to be nervous. I held his hand and wrapped my arm around his shoulder. "Hey don't worry about it, I'm right here with you, alright?"He bobbed his head and gave me a faint smile. It's amazing just how fast Billy grew. After six years, it felt just like yesterday I held him in my arms. As we stepped out of the car, my eyes scanned the crowd of students and parents gathering in front of the school. I spotted a group of my Billionaire colleagues. They waved at me and I waved back, giving them a casual nod before turning to my boy."Come on, Billy," I said,
Reiner's POV: Back in Laura's office, it was raining fire and brimstones. Laura was acting up and it wasn't a pleasant sight. After she slapped me, she marched to her office but I followed her, calling after her like my life depended on it. Clair returned back to her seat and waited patiently in the reception hall. Now I'm trying to calm Laura's jumping nerves. She was pacing around her office, swearing, cursing and crying. Suddenly she began regaining her composure. She leaned her weight on the edge of her desk and stared directly at me. The look she gave me was cold and scary. I had to keep my cool because I have absolutely no idea what she was going to do next. "Is it true?" She asked. "That you had a one night stand with her behind my back?" As much as I hated to admit it, I had no other choice but to speak the truth. "Yes I did. But trust me. It was just this one time. I haven't done it ever since." "You slept with her?"she chuckled bitterly. "How? How could you d
