David's POV “Mike!” I shouted as I walked briskly out of the office, my voice cutting through the hallway like a hot blade. “Start the car. Take me to Paradise Suite. Now.”Mike, my ever-loyal driver, blinked twice and looked at me through the rearview mirror as I slid into the backseat. “Sir, you have a scheduled meeting in an hour”I leaned forward, my tone dropping into a cold warning. “Are you deaf?”Silence…“This is more urgent than any meeting, don't you understand. Do you still love your job?” I asked, my voice sharp, heavy with the weight of everything burning in my chest. “Start the car and take me there now!”Mike didn’t say another word. He just nodded slowly and adjusted the gear. The car began to move.I sighed and sank into the seat, staring out the tinted window as the city raced past. “Mike,” I muttered, “no delays today. Not even traffic. Just fly if you have to. I must get to Paradise Suite before it's too late.”He nodded again, the tension between us thick like

Eunice - POVBy exactly 6:55pm, I saw Uncle Bernard's car slowly pull into the compound. My heart skipped. I was surprised not just that he came, but that he came exactly on time. That small act reminded me of something my dad once said: "If someone values you, they'll value your time too." In business and in life, being timely matters. And Bernard had just proven that without saying a word.Thank God I had finished dressing up already. I took one last look in the mirror, standing still for a moment. My heart was already racing, and I hadn't even stepped outside. I ran my hands gently down the sides of my gown a soft, flowing diamond-colored dress that moved like water whenever I turned. It wasn’t too loud. It wasn’t screaming for attention. But it said something. Something calm, beautiful, and quietly strong. It hugged my body just right enough to make me feel feminine, enough to make me feel like myself again. Simple, but there was something elegant about it.I didn’t want to d

Eunice - POVReuniting with my parents felt like heaven. I didn’t even know how much I had missed them until I saw their faces again. For the first time in a very long time, I felt safe. I felt like a little girl again protected, loved, seen. No arguments. No fear. Just peace. Pure peace.It was like my soul had been carrying a heavy load for years, and finally, someone helped me drop it. The feeling wrapped around me like a warm blanket on a cold night. My mom’s hug… her soft hand on my back… my dad’s calm eyes… it was everything I had been missing.I could smell Mom’s cooking in the kitchen, the scent of her stew filling the house. I could hear Dad’s voice in the background, humming that same old tune he always hummed after a long day. The walls of the house felt familiar, like they were welcoming me back too. Even the flowers in the garden looked brighter.From the outside, it may have just looked like a simple reunion. But inside me, something big was happening. Something heali

David POV "No, Mom. I can't marry someone like Lizzy," I said, standing at the door, already halfway out. My heart was racing. I had to hold myself back from raising my voice.Mom sighed, sitting calmly on the couch, arms crossed. "She is not just someone, Eunice She's your friend. Your secretary. She's loyal. She knows your routine. She understands your business. What else are you looking for in a woman?"I turned back to face her. "Exactly, Mom. She is my friend and my secretary. That doesn't mean she should be my wife.""Alright," she said with a tone of finality, like she was tired of repeating herself. "You always feel you are right. But you’ll see one day. Get married to Lizzy, and you won’t regret it. Mark my words.""Never," I said softly but firmly, locking eyes with her. "I won't marry someone just because it looks convenient."Without waiting for another word, I picked up my bag and walked out of the house. I could still feel the weight of Mom's stare behind me. My phone

David POVShe looked at me, stunned. But I didn’t back down.That picture, the one of Eunice and me in Italy, wasn't just a photo. It held more weight than that. It was a memory frozen in time. A piece of my heart that still lived, hanging right there on the wall. I could still remember how the sun hit her skin that day, how her laughter danced in the air like music. That photo was my reminder of what once was what could've been.I sat down slowly. My hand trembled as I reached for my glass of water. It was no use pretending. I wasn’t over her. Not even close."David, it’s over. She left you," Mom said sharply, standing near the wall. "This house doesn’t need reminders of her.""That picture stays," I replied, my voice firm and low.She stopped. Her eyes narrowed. "Have you been bewitched by her? This is not the boy I raised."She shook her head and walked to a seat."Or have you been thinking of Eunice lately? You look sick. You look tired. You don’t even eat properly anymore.""Mo

David POVI left the hospital thinking I could somehow fix thingsthat maybe, just maybe, this whole madness with Eunice and the divorce could be reversed. I had saved her life. That had to count for something, right? Deep down, I thought it was a sign. A second chance. I told myself that saving her wasn’t just fate; it was a door swinging open again, waiting for us to walk through together.But reality hit me hard the moment I stepped into the house.The silence was deafening. The air felt colder, heavier. Something was missing.Eunice.She was gone.Not a note. Not a scent of her perfume. Not a single trace that she ever lived here. Her clothes? Gone. Her shoes? Not a pair in sight. Even the soft throw blanket she loved curling up in while reading on the couch.. gone. It was as if she had never existed here.And the sad part? I let this happen.I sat on the edge of our bed—my bed now—and stared at the emptiness. This wasn’t just a house without her. It was a heart without a beat. Th
