Cedric…?" Paige drawled unamused by the situation that Cedric was creating, "What are you doing right now? You can't just randomly invite my guest to your party without my consent!"

"Yes, I can and I'm going to do it. Besides, it's not a big deal, right Mr Rain?" He glanced at the man who was staring at the couple in bewilderment,

"Yes, it's not a big deal and I don't mind the invitation at all," Mr Rain answered, which was a bad idea in Paige's book. She knew exactly what Cedric was doing and she didn't want to give him the platform to do that.

But it was kind of too late,

"Besides, " Mr Rain continued, I told you that I want to get to know you more, so maybe this will be a perfect opportunity for that," He smiled as he admitted his thoughts to Paige who immediately stole a glance at Cedric and almost laughed when she saw the seething annoyance on his face.

Oh, well, good riddance, she thought and took a sip of her drink. Seeing that look on Cedric's face spurred up something in her

    ◆Both Jarvis and Veera were both lounging around in the kitchen, each of them sipping a cup of hot chocolate when Paige waddled inside.She looked like she will fall over anytime. “Why are you girls up so early?” She mumbled amidst her yawn. “The sun is barely rising on the horizon.”“What nonsense are you rambling about? Take a seat, I'll fix you something to warm you up.” Jarvis cautioned, “It's a bit chilly this morning.” “It's because the sun is settling on the horizon,” Veera mumbled as she winked at Paige who gestured her middle finger in response. “I can't believe this is how beautiful you look in the morning. You are glowing my friend.”“It's the pregnancy I guess,” Paige responded“Is this the same for everyone? Too bad I might never be able to experience it.” Veera acknowledged, her gaze shifting to Jarvis who had her focus buried in the flame. She was humming a familiar tune. Veera stared sadly at her. “Why not?” Paige asked her, “Because you both are females? You

    ◆Unfortunately, after Jarvis and Veera unpacked and freshened up, it was already too late for them to continue their conversation with Paige who seemed to be dozing off to la la land when the girls returned to the living room. “Does she always sleep like this or is this a new habit of hers?” Jarvis questioned Veera, “Knowing her , she found it hard to fall asleep but now she is dozing off in the living room.”“Yiu don't think it's depression or is it?” Veera worried too, “She was kind of acting like everything was just okay and I didn't think anything negative because look at her, she is literally glowing.”“Anyway, let's bring her inside and we can take a nap too. We can fix dinner when we wake up.” Jarvis suggested, “What do you think?”“I think a nap is a perfect idea. I miss my girlfriend.” Veera admitted, “Do you think she has any time for me?” Jarvis grinned, her eyes watching Veera fondly and teasingly, “What girlfriend wouldn't have time for you? Looking beautiful like

    ◆Almost a month passed before any one heard from Paige again. She had randomly called her friends Jarvis and Veera one afternoon and the ear-splitting scream the two girls let out was enough for Paige to know that the two girls still had her back. Today, she was going to receive them in her home. Paige still can't believe she finally has a place she calls hers. It wasn't luxurious or lavishly decorated. But it was homely and cozy and it was extremely comfortable and above all, she designed and curated the room by her own hands. The room was like an extension of herself and needs.

The place was a solace for Paige, she grieved the loss of her mother and her breakup with Cedric in this place.

    ◆“I still don't agree with you closing the case of someone constantly harassing you just because you have left your marriage which was the cause of that harassment.”Jarvis argued, she doesn't know what her friend is thinking.“It's exactly because of that reason that I want to close the case, Jarvis. What am I pursuing the case for?” Paige admitted. “I don't want to hold on to that case anymore.” “Okay, but what about you? Who is going to pay for the emotional abuse they caused you?” Veera added and Paige let out a frustrated sigh.

    ◆ “I love you with my eyes closed, Pie,” Cedric muttered, trying to get Paige to listen to him. “You really don't need to leave the mansion, you can still stay here as my friend but at least don't leave me.” “Cedric, you have to understand me,” Paige said, “I really can't stay, there is nothing left here for me. Just allow me to leave, please.” She said as she took out the crest necklace that hung around her neck to return it to him. “Please tell Grandma that I'm really sorry.” “No, Grandma will be heartbroken if you return that to her, she gave it to you please hold on to it.” Cedric pleaded. “Maybe give it to Marlynn, as the person carrying the Brooks Heir, she deserves that more than me,” Paige remarked but Cedric wasn't having it. “No one deserves anything more than you do, Paige North please hold on to that crest, it's yours.” Cedric insisted, “I'm sorry it had to come to this. I can never face you again.” Paige gave him an understanding smile. Of course, she knows, tha
