Anita was sitting by Michael's bed at the hospital, massaging his hand and crying. Alexander was sitting on a chair close to them.Michael woke up a few hours later to see Anita hovering over him with tears in her eyes. His eyes moved around the hospital room, trying to recognize where he was."Dad?" Anita quickly called as soon as she noticed her father had moved his fingers."My dear..." Michael spoke, looking at Anita tenderly. His lips stretched into a small smile as he saw her sitting close to him. "Anita."Anita's eyes were fixed on Michael worriedly, and her hands took his hand in hers. "Thank God you are awake, Dad. For a moment, I was. I was scared that I lost you too.""I'm here, my dear," Michael whispered, trying to sit up, and Anita leaned forward to hug her father for the first time in the last few years."What happened to me? Why am I here?" he asked.Alexander quickly went out to call the doctor to come and take a look at Michael. He arrived together with the doctor."
After Michael got better, he was discharged from the hospital, and Anita made sure to always visit him and sometimes sleep in the house so he could recover fully.Sandra was arrested and later released because she did not commit any major offenses. Margaret, on the other hand, was left behind bars because she was found guilty of so many charges. She confessed willingly just to save Sandra; she even confessed to Gerald's role in all her crimes."He helped me do most of my dirty jobs; he was even the one who helped me get the poison I used on Michael." Margaret had said this at the police station.Michael was disappointed when he found out about Gerald's involvement in what happened to him."I was nothing but good to him; he worked as my assistant for so many years, and I never gave him any reason to be uncomfortable. But then why did he turn around to pay for my good deeds with evil?" Michael had complained to Anita as they drove back to his house. "Even Margaret, I treated her so wel
Two weeks after Alexander proposed to Anita, the preparation for the wedding had started.Anita, Lauren, and Angie were at Warren Mansion, preparing for the big day that would happen tomorrow.The three women were lying on the bed, facing the ceiling, and talking happily about one another."By this time tomorrow, you will have become Mrs. Scot," Angie said to Anita, playfully nudging her shoulder.The three women laughed."I can't wait to also be like you," Lauren exclaimed, smiling."Very soon." Anita nudged her. "And you too." She nudged Angie, who laughed.Soon, Lauren became sober. "Caleb lied to me; he just wanted to come back into my life to deceive me. all over again." She scoffed, darting her glassy eyes."What are you talking about?" Anita asked her."After I decided to give him a chance to right his wrongs like he claimed, I caught him sleeping with a girl in his house. After he had promised me that he loved me and had really come back for me and Anna, I was a bit heartbroke
Anita became her father's heiress; she took charge of the company and became president effortlessly.She took care of the company even more than Sandra did, and it blossomed under her care using the knowledge she had studied in school and also with the help of her husband.Anita had always heard Jessica, her manager, talk about how much she missed her ex-husband and needed a man in her life, stylishly matched her with her father during one of her visits to the set, and they were a perfect match. They even started going on several dates after their first date, which was orchestrated by Anita."How was your date, dad?" Anita asked her father one day, when she visited him, to discuss the company's stock."What date?" Michael asked, looking clueless, and Anita laughed."Don't play that game with me, Dad; you think I don't know you have been going on dates with Jessica behind my back?""I have no idea what you are talking about." Michael joked, palming his face.Anita laughed once more. "Y
“This is your flight attendant speaking, ladies and gentlemen; we are starting our approach to Los Angeles. Fasten your safety belt at all times.”As the flight attendant announced their landing in Los Angeles, Anita's heart raced. It had been five years since she left Los Angeles and moved to London to begin over following an unexpected turn of event.Her heartbeat increased even more when she felt the gentle thud under her feet, which indicated that the plane had landed successfully.‘It's official; I'm back here once again!’ She thought as she walked off the plane.The cool breeze blew across Anita Fredrick's face, spreading some strands of hair across her face, as she walked down the stairs of the plane along with her friend and her son, Austin. She felt a mixture of anxiety and disgust as her eyes darted around the airport, remembering how her father's secretary had dragged her here five years ago, forcing her to board a plane to London with nothing but a few clothes on her back.
Sandra sat in her modern office, her gaze fixed on the document she was working on. Her father, the chairman of the company, had handed the project to her to work on without his involvement since she wanted to bid on a project with other top businessmen.Sandra believed this was the chance she had been waiting for—an opportunity to prove herself worthy once more—and she hoped her father would grant her the one wish she had for the company: to be the CEO of Warren's Inc.She was so focused on the document she was working on that she didn't notice her phone was ringing the whole time.She heard a tap on her office door and knew it had to be her secretary, so she ushered her in without looking away from the project she was working on."Ma'am, Miss Bridget said she had been calling your personal line for a while now," the secretary replied with a smile, and Sandra's eyes searched her enormous table full of documents for her phone."Thank you; I will return her call," Sandra said calmly wh
After checking on Austin, Doctor Sam left the house, and Angie had to see him off while Anita stayed behind with her kid.He explained how he would be coming to treat Austin at home while still requiring them to bring Austin to the hospital twice a week for necessary tests and chemo until they found a bone marrow match for him. Anita sat next to Austin and ruffled his hair with her hand, thinking about how to actualize her plans. She couldn't continue to wait for a donor; she needed to get pregnant as soon as possible so she could save her son.Angie returned to the room and kissed Austin lightly on the chin, then Anita concentrated on her phone."I'm hungry, Aunt Angie. I'm craving something spicy," Austin declared, making puppy eyes."Baby, you know mommy wouldn't want you to eat something spicy," Angie said, taking the boy's hands in hers as she sat by his side."You are hungry, right? So let's go get something to eat. But not something spicy," she added with a smile.Angie carried
By eleven a.m., Anita stepped elegantly in her heels into the Blue Ray company, disregarding the stares of the other actresses present. They'd never tire of her attractiveness, and she'd never grow accustomed to not being the focus of attention.The guard pointed her to the director's office, and she wasted no time getting there.Anita knocked quietly on the door of the office, and a voice from within welcomed her in."Good morning, Anita; you may have your seat," the director said, and Anita smiled back.Anita nodded and sat in the chair in front of the director, a bright smile lingering on her face. Her entire appearance exudes elegance.The director took a few documents from the drawer and set them on the table. He began scrolling through them and sighed after a while."Jessica Greg is your manager; she was assigned to you. You don't need to be concerned; she's good at what she does." The director explained, and Anita smiled again, making the director's heart beat faster for her. I
