Mag-log inSold off into marriage to save her mother, Liora thought life would eventually be kind to her, but life threw a dagger at her in the hands of the man she had grown to love. Five years later, Liora Adams returns to New York, no longer the broken girl she once was but a famous doctor, determined to make everyone pay. Nothing prepared her when Travis Ashford looked her in the eyes and said, ‘I need a fix, doctor.’ ‘Mr. Ashford, you’ve got the money; why not get one? ” Liora asked. ‘Only you can fix me, Liora," Travis answered. Liora’s lip curved in amusement as she answered, ‘Oh, Mr. Ashford, fixing exes is not a part of my specialty.’

The stranger, a man who looked to be in his mid-thirties, sat down also with a brown envelope in front of him."Do you have any information for me?” Elizabeth asked.“It is just as you suspected. The..." the man started to say.“Yes, no need to complete that," Elizabeth quickly interjected.“Let him complete his words,” Michael said, glancing at his mother.“There is no need for you to deal with that. I will be the one to deal with you. The reason you are here is for
At the other end of the hall, Travis walked over to a quiet pair and sat down. The event had just come to an end, and somehow he could not bring himself to leave the room."Travis?" Felix called as he moved over to him.He had looked around and seen him walking over to sit at the back of the hall."Yes," Travis muttered."What's wrong? You look like a man whom the world has just abandoned," Felix said as he sat beside him.They sat there in silence staring at the other guests who were still walking about and discussing.The atmosphere was calm and tranquil, but Travis felt a storm raging inside him."What is it?" Felix asked softly."Nothing really; I am just a little exhausted," Travis stated."Why?" Felix asked, glancing at him."Well, for one, I am yet to see Doctor Athena anywhere here. Since her team took the liberty to come, I am assuming she skipped this weekend's launch," Travis stated."Yeah, looks like it," Felix said with a shrug."And then two, half of all the people who h
Liora read the message and saw it was from the kids. They had a thing with speaking with her before they slept so she knew she had to step aside."Is everything okay? If we didn't know better, one would think that you have a little kid that you are worried about," Nicole said in scorn.Liora looked up suddenly, looking around to be sure no one had heard what she said."Please excuse me," Liora said and walked away.Nicole let her go, not bothering to follow her. She had her own plan in mind, and she was going to make sure it was successful."Liora?" Betty called as she turned to see her heading towards the exit."She excused herself to take a minute, I guess," Nicole told her, smiling at her."Oh, okay, thank you," Betty responded."What was that about?" Ian asked as they all moved away from Nicole and the camera, which was now focused on a different set of people."It's probably the kids; I mean, it's that time of the night," Lily pointed out."Oh, okay, that's true," Ian agreed."I
Back at the hall, Scott saw Nicole, her eyes completely hardened as he walked into the room.“Nicole?” Scott called.“Yes,” Nicole mumbled, looking up at him.Scott could not hear her above the music being played in the background.“Nicole, where are you coming from?” He asked.Before she could respond, a group of people walked out of the main hall and passed in between them. Scott remained still unable to ask his question.The group was so much that they had to wait for a few minutes before Scott could move back to her side."What is it?" Scott askedNicole shook her head, trying to remain calm. Maybe coming to the event was a mistake after all. The room felt electric and charged, a suffocating weight settling over every corner as her heart settled into uneasy calmness."Are you alright?" He asked again.“No, I am not. I don’t think I want to be right now.” Nicole responded.Scott pulled her with him, locating a quiet spot behind the hall, and walked her over to it.They sat down and
Lily and Liora exchanged a look before Lily coughed slightly. They walked out of the elevator, but Ellen refused to move out of the way."What were you two talking about?" Ellen insisted."Nothing that concerns you," Liora said, walking past her."It does not look like that to me," Ellen insisted."
At the sound of the voice, Liora’s shoulder stiffened. The odd familiarity of it made her eyes harden as she turned to look back.“It is really you.”Liora stared at the woman in front of her. Years of the cruelty she had shown her flashing back in her mind.“Hello, stepmother," Liora muttered.“It
“No,” Fiona responded.“What is No?” Betty asked impatiently.“I mean, no, it’s not Mr. Cavanade.” Fiona mumbled.“Then what is it?” Liora asked.“I just got a call from one of our former investors; it sounds like they would like to meet.” Fiona grinned.“Oh my God! That's excellent news, Mom," Bet
Liora's face became unreadable as she asked, "Because of what?""Your mother," Ellen says, her eyes narrowed."Don't you dare!" Liora snapped, her hands balled into a fist at her side."I knew it; if you think you're going to take this away from me that easily, you're joking. I'm going to fight you
