Kate walked into Donovan's Enterprise, it wasn't yet working hours and the place was already buzzing with activities, the time was 7:45am.

She decided to use the elevator as there were people in, easing her a little.

The elevator stopped at the presidential floor. Kate stepped out taking in a deep breath.

After what happened on Friday she wasn't sure how she would act infront of Charles, "will he act like nothing happened".

"Well it doesn't matter", she told herself, she should concentrate on why she's really in City S and avoid any distraction.

Charles would probably act like nothing happened anyway, he wasn't the type who associates his personal life with business and she should too.

"Morning Stella", she greeted as she walked past the reception desk.

Stella bowed in response, "Morning ma'am".

Kate turned to her right facing Charles' office.

"Morning Jack", she greeted, who was stepping

    Rose remained seated, rooted in her place. An uneasy feeling twisted in her guts. What if Taylor's threat came true and it wasn’t just Charles she lost in the end? Fear trickled down her spine. She shook her head, trying to cast the thoughts away. “Charles and Tyalor may have done whatever they wanted…” Her lips curled into a devilish smirk. “...but now, it’s my turn to act”. She suddenly hissed in pain, rubbing her neck, still sore from when Charles strangled her. MEANWHILE AT VAC CLUB Charles stared into empty space, his mind swirling with different thoughts, especially about last night’s dinner with his parents. Taylor had scared the hell out of him. One wrong step and she could have fallen - or worse, died. He shut his eyes and pinched the bridge between his brows, trying to erase the horrific image from his mind. At that moment, she reminded him so much about someone - Kate. PAST “F*ck Goldie what are you doing?! Get down from there!” A teenage Charles yelled, ar

    “Taylor, isn't it?” She asked through gritted teeth. A part of her had seen it coming, and still, she chose to ignore the signs. That she could never lose Charles…to Taylor. “Still your grandpa would never agree…” “You think too highly of yourself Miss Andino,” Charles cut in coldly. The confidence drained from Rose's face. Of course, Charles wouldn’t speak with so such certainity unless that was the condition given by his Grandpa - once he fell in love the engagement could end. She was a fool. Her smile returned, remembering she still had one more trump card. “And what about Taylor? Does she love you?” Her lip tilted into a smirk, as she saw his expression falter. “You’re just using her to get rid of me,” she taunted, watching his eyes darken, but she didn’t stop. “You don't really love her, do you…” The rest of her words got stuck in her throat. Her hands flew up to grab Charles’s wrist, hitting him weakly. His hand was wrapped tightly around her neck, as he gla

    As much as it tore him, he couldn’t be with Taylor. He couldn’t delay the meeting any longer either. A determined look forming on his face, he stared at the older man sitting across from him, a wooden coffee table separating them. “Tell me, son, what brings you here?” “Old Man Andino,” Charles greeted formally. “No need to be formal with me Charles,” Gabriel said, his lips curving ever so slightly. “The last time you insisted on meeting me was to tell me your intentions towards my granddaughter.” Gabriel relished the past, a bitter smile coating his face at the reminisce of his granddaughter. Charles remembered - Kate was 15, while he was just 19. He had gone to ask for Gabriel’s blessings and permission to pursue Kate, as she looked up to her grandfather the most. But then, things don’t always turn out as planned. “So what brings you here this time?” Gabriel asked again, taking his teacup to his lips. The cup froze midway at Charles' response. “Kate’s car. The one sh

    The room door barged open, revealing a worried looking Charles, rushing over to her side. She creased her forehead in confusion at him. “What's wrong darling I heard you scream and..", the rest of his words getting stuck in his throat, sitting at the edge of the bed beside her, cupping her face. “Why are you crying?” Kate grabbed his wrists, his hands still on her face, giving him a reassuring smile or tried to but came out forced instead. “I’m fine really”, she croaked. Charles stared at her unconvinced, his eyebrows scrunched together, trying to make out whether she was lying or not, dropping his hand at his sides with a sigh.“I was just thinking about my parents, that’s all”, She said, placing her hand over his on the bed.Charles nodded gently and entwined their fingers "Do you miss them?"Kate's face softened "I do.... a lotHe gave her hand a light squeeze in comfort."But spending with your family yesterday", she continued, her voice softer. "It felt like they were t

    “I’ll go bring some more wine for us”, Stephanie said excitedly, leaving the room and forgetting to fully close the door behind her. Kate nodded with a smile. "Sure". Stephanie was so carefree and warm, and could easily light up anyone's mood. Kate had instantly warmed up to her. At first, she had thought she'd be nervous when Stephanie requested they spend time together, but it turned out to be the complete opposite. A blink caught her eyes. She turned her head to the door, unable to hold her curiosity. Quietly, she stood up and walked out of the room. The blinking came from a hand lock placed on a side table, it was made of metal and decorated with diamonds. She picked it up, admiring how beautiful it was, but the hands weren't moving. It must have stopped working. She turned the knob gently, making a cranking sound as she did. The hands of the clock began to move with a soft click sound. Smiling in satisfaction, she placed it back on the table. When she heard laughte

    SOME MINUTES AFTER DINNER, "Are you sure of what you are doing son?” Bryan asked, his gaze steady as he sat across from Charles on one of the couches in the study. Charles met his father's eyes without hesitation. “Very such”, he replied in a calm, deadpan tone. “I love Taylor, and I’m willing to sacrifice everything, for her, for us and for our future”. “And Rose?” “What about her?” Charles said flatly, not interested in discussing his so-called fiancee. "She is still your fiance...”, Bryan reminded him gently. “An arranged marriage I never asked for", Charles cut in. "It was decided for me but that will be taken care of soon - Rose will be out of the picture and his life”. Bryan leaned back slightly. “You know I was never in support of your engagement with Rose”, he admitted, a regretful look flickered across his face. Charles gave a faint nod. “I know. It was grandpa’s doing”. “That sly old man”, he thought, shaking his head. What his father didn’t know was the
