An interview with them was the dreams of many famous celebrities but only Chase Axford could ever turned them down. "So, Mr. Chase Axford, you've achieved quite a lot of success at a very young age of 26. You started, at the age of 18, working in your father's business in the management department before eventually working your way up as CEO.""That is correct. I started as an intern in one of our subsidiaries at the age of 18 with no experience. Sure, I'd read a lot of books about managing resources and people but they were nothing compared to the real world, however the process thought me a lot

"I want to have a try first,""No! Me first!""Arggh you two are grown adults yet you act like children!""No, we don't!"Mackenzie looked in front of her with a smile while watching her two best friends fight for who should first taste the food Miss Beatrice had made to celebrate her recovery."Anyway, Mackenzie is to taste the food first. I made all of these for her.""But she can't possibly eat them all now, can she? Besides, she has recovered; you should care about us too!""Oh don't be jealous now you two. If any of you happen to fall ill, I'll make you food you can try first.""That's not cool, Miss Beatrice."A slightly tall woman with a gigantic frame stood in front of Mackenzie, handing her a plate filled with fish sticks. "Please have a taste, Mackenzie,""Thank you," Mackenzie grabbed a fish stick and took a bite. As she did, her eyes lighted up and her lips curved upwards into a smile."It's great isn't it?" Beatrice asked with a content smile."Yeah, it is," Mackenzie ans

Mackenzie was humming to herself in the kitchen while washing potatoes. The potatoes were given to her and her father by the caring neighbors as a gift.Many of the neighbors had farms so it was not rare in Noose Hage village to exchange farm harvests.As Mackenzie enjoyed the feel of the cold tap water as she poured the impurities of the potatoes into the sink, she heard panicked voices outside.Curious as to what could be causing all the ruckus, she rinsed her hands and dried them with the washcloth before opening the door and looking outside. However, what she saw next was not what she was expecting."Father!" She shouted, watching with shaky eyes as her father was being carried by two hardy men with a trail of blood gushing from his right leg behind them."Mackenzie," Maverick said with an exasperated expression."Uncle Maverick, Teddy!" She cried as she raced towards them, her eyes glued to her father's bloody foot. "What happened?""He accidentally hurt himself while plowing the

"Sorry Mackenzie, I don't have any money right now. I spent all of my savings to promote my e-tube channel,""I understand, totally, Fel""Sorry, Kenzie.""It's fine, I'll find another way… somehow."Mackenzie ended the call and sighed.She had called both of her best friends to loan her money to pay her father's hospital bills but…Charlotte barely made enough as a teacher at Noose Hage elementary school so she already spent all her money on the magazines she bought the last time.As for Felicity, she had an e-tube channel where she shared awareness with people on the importance of trees and plants. She also shared tips on how to heal injuries using specific plants. She'd spent all her savings on promoting that content.Mackenzie didn't know what to do. She didn't have other friends to call.So she just sat on a bench, stranded and depressed.She stared at the darkening sky and sighed. It was getting dark and she hadn't found a solution yet. Was her father okay? She was worried, but
ONE NIGHT WITH MY HUSBAND’S BROTHER Deep Longing
FOUR YEARS LATER“I hereby pronounce you, husband and wife…” The officiator announced. “…and you may kiss the bride.”Mackenzie’s father flashed a big smile at Beatrice, who returned the smile with a tender one of her own. They moved closer, and leaned in to share a kiss.Before their lips could touch, Mackenzie covered both of her twins’ eyes with her palms, like the overprotective mother that she was. Calista, her baby girl, leaned closer into Mackenzie’s dress, clutching the ring case assigned to her as the ring bearer.Unlike his sister, Cameron, the more hyper-energetic of the two, squirmed against Mackenzie’s palm, trying to see what was going on.Once the kiss was over, the guests erupted in cheers and claps, and Mackenzie removed her hands from their small faces with a fond smile. Now free, they both ran off before their sight was taken away again.She laughed, then looked back at her father, and his bride. She had never seen her father this happy.He almost looked young again
ONE NIGHT WITH MY HUSBAND’S BROTHER Merely unfinished
Chase strode through the doors of the house, and came to a stop when he saw his father standing in the middle of the large lobby, right before the stairs.He already knew the reason why he called him here from the office, but he still asked, “Why did you call me down here, dad?”Richard turned around immediately he heard Chase’s voice. His face was red with the uncontrollable anger he had been holding in while he waited for Chase to arrive. “Selene told me you’re filing for a divorce. What is that supposed to mean?!”Chase stared at his dad dead in the eye, and replied quietly. “It means I want to end the marriage.”“Don’t you get cheeky with me, Chase!” Richard exploded. “You are not ending your marriage with Selene! Never! Why would you want to do that? What is your problem, Chase?!”Richard's voice echoed through the walls, rising further with each word he yelled.Chase found himself growing pissed off as well. What gave his father the right to forbid him from getting a divorce?“I
ONE NIGHT WITH MY HUSBAND’S BROTHER Found a lead
In three weeks after moving into a three bedroom apartment in Greensville, which Uncle Maverick helped them get, Mackenzie had been busy with trying to kick start her career as a designer. After all, she, Charlotte and Felicity have been living off their savings from North Dakota.They could not depend on that for much longer.Uncle Maverick has been a great help so far. Because their apartment lied outside the heart of Greensville, and Mackenzie was busy with the kids and her works at the back of the house, he helped her drop her samples at many of the huge hotels around the city searching for new designers.It worked because he lived right there in the center of Greensville.But so far, none of the hotels had gotten back to her.It was a lot of work to take care of two growing and energetic kids while trying to organize their lives, and Mackenzie could definitely not afford to hire a babysitter. She had barely even been able to get them into preschool, pay their tuition and other ne
ONE NIGHT WITH MY HUSBAND’S BROTHER Too good to be true
Mackenzie’s phone burst out ringing on the kitchen counter. She straightened up from the dishes she was washing and wiped her hands on a towel before reaching for it.It was Uncle Maverick calling.She answered, “Hello, Uncle Maverick. How’s it going?”“You will not believe what just happened, Kenzie.” His excited voice came over the phone. “I’ve got amazing news!”Mackenzie moved away from the counter, clutching the phone tighter. “What happened?”Uncle Maverick cleared his throat, and said in a levelled voice. “One of the hotels got back to me. They are interested in buying your design and hiring you as their major designer, Mackenzie!”Her mouth dropped in surprise. For a moment she was speechless, filled with a mixture of shock, disbelief and unexplainable happiness. When she finally got her voice back, she exclaimed, “W-what?” She let out a big breath. “Wait a minute, Uncle Maverick, did I just hear you right?!”He was laughing on the other end of the phone. “I mean every word I
