I sat inside my car for almost ten minutes before getting out. I wasn't nervous about seeing her. I was terrified. There was a difference.

How would she react? The last time, she actually burst into my house to give me the word of my life. I had hurt her and she gave me a piece of her mind.

And now that I had given her a few days to herself. I didn’t know if it was going to change anything.

I walked to her door and knocked. There was no response. Somewhere deep within me, I feared she had recon

    It’s been several days. And I was just living. Aleksander had apologized and I had forgiven him. Maybe forgiveness didn't erase what happened. I wasn't completely happy. I wasn't completely okay.But it gave me the peace I hadn't realized I needed. And I wasn’t rotting away like I thought I would. I made a new friend. "Do you have plans for lunch?" She had asked on the call.I looked at the clock. "No.""Good. We’ll be meeting for lunch”“Wtat? No.”She sounded offended. "Is that a problem?"I stood. "It's just...""What? I really like spending time with you."There was something about the way she said that to me that made me smile. I picked up my handbag during lunch hour and went to the location she had dropped.The restaurant was quiet and beautiful. I noticed she mostly bought it out for us, she didn’t want abyohh no e ever disturbing our conversations.Grandmother ordered enough food for five people. I stared at the table. "Are you expecting someone?""No.""Then why did you orde

The last time, she actually burst into my house to give me the word of my life. I had hurt her and she gave me a piece of her mind.And now that I had given her a few days to herself. I didn’t know if it was going to change anything.I walked to her door and knocked. There was no response. Somewhere deep within me, I feared she had reconciled with Lance and they'd gone to Switzerland.Whose side was I on? Did I want Klaire to be happy with Lance, or not?I knocked again. Still, there was no response. I was about to leave when the door suddenly opened. Klaire stood there with her eyes slightly widened.She didn’t look like she had stepped out of this house, nor did she look like she had eaten anything."Mr Vilmorre?" Her eyes squinted. The way she said my name made something in my chest ache. She was about to close the door when

    I was halfway through reviewing the Moscow reports when Grandmother walked into my study. She didn't knock. She never did. I looked up from my laptop. "You're up early." I mentioned. "We need to talk." She ignored the comment and walked straight toward me.I closed the laptop. "That doesn't sound good."She sat across from me. “Well, it doesn’t, cause I cannot bare looking at you look so lifeless since that employee left the country.” She sighed. “So, what are you going to do about it?” I asked with a wry smile."I want you to reconsider the marriage."I stared at her. "What marriage?""The arranged one. The very one that failed with a crazy coincidence. I told you I could never pick wrong for you. The girl you almost married wasn’t the girl I picked for you. But this one…”I leaned back slowly. "No.""You haven't even heard me out.""I don't need to.""You don't know who the woman is.""I don't care."Grandmother sighed. "She is a good woman.""So are thousands of women.""You shou

    I almost changed my mind three times before getting out of the car. There was absolutely no reason to meet this woman. I was not with her grandson, neither did I have plans to keep this going on for long.Grandmother had chosen a quiet restaurant away from the city center. It wasn’t overly crowded, and the private garden at the back gave us enough privacy to talk without being overheard. I spotted her immediately.The moment she saw me, she smiled. “Klaire.”I walked toward her.“Grandmother.”She stood and hugged me. I had only met her a few times, yet there was something incredibly warm about the way she held me. As though she had known me much longer than I knew her.She pulled away and studied my face. “You’ve been crying.”I looked away. “It’s been a difficult few days.”“I know.” We sat down. Then she poured me some tea as I looked around the garden. “How are you?” She asked.“I’m surviving.” I simply said. “And how are you too?”She smiled. “Well, I have not been doing great si

    I called Lance again, so many times that my fingers already knew the sequence. I held the phone to my ear.Just the familiar message. The number you have dialed is currently unavailable.I lowered the phone, simply stared at the screen and jeot trying.Nothing.I finally dropped the phone beside me. "He really doesn't want to talk to me."Maybe saying it aloud could make it real. “Lance was gone”. And it wasn’t just from the airport or apartment that he got for me. He had removed himself from my life.And perhaps...I couldn't blame him at all for it. I was at fault. I messed up. I truly did.I closed my eyes. The photographs appeared in my mind again. Our lips licked tightly against each other. I could still feel the heat from the kiss by just thinking about it.My hands around his neck. There was no explanation that could make those pictures look innocent.I wiped my face. "I ruined it." A bitter laugh escaped me. "Of course I did." It seemed like everything I touched eventually fell

    The mansion had never felt this quiet. Or maybe my head was the quiet one. I had nothing to think of again. And the silence was somehow worse than busy thoughts. Grandmother had gone to bed early. The servants had all retired. I sat alone in the study, pretending to read through the Moscow reports.But I hadn't read a single line in almost an hour. Every few minutes, my mind wandered back to the airport.Was she gone already? Had the plane taken off? Did the photo get to them? Did it perhaps break any trust?Nah. It had been hours since they left. No feedback from Hale. They were probably in Switzerland now.Maybe...that was for the best.Suddenly…The front door slammed. The loud sound echoed through the entire mansion. I frowned. A maid hurried toward the study."Mr. Aleksander…” Before she could finish…"I know where he is!" A familiar voice rang through the hallway.My heart skipped.No...It couldn't be. The rapid footsteps approached and the study door burst open.She stood there

    “Mrs Claire Kingston, this way please,” the tall suited man called for me. I sucked in a deep breath, murmuring a quick prayer before walking in. After crying myself to sleep yesterday, Elise had offered to help me retrieve my important documents from my cloud. I don't know how she did it but th

    “So how did it go? Did you meet your new bride? Do you like her?” My grandmother’s eager eyes made my shoulders stiff. I moved to her bed and sat down with a small sigh. “How are you feeling today, Granny? Does your chest still hurt?” I asked her. Her eyes narrowed briefly at me. “I am fine, Lex

    “Let's get divorced.”The grocery bag dropped from my hand as my entire body froze. Oranges rolled across the apartment hallway while a carton of eggs burst open beside my feet, but I could only stare at the text glowing on my screen.My husband wanted a divorce.My husband.The man I had legally m

    His smile immediately faded as Mr Hale said those words and he retracted his hand from mine.His expression was rather confusing. Was he angry? Did he not have a good relationship with his grandmother?"Grandmother?" He repeated flatly, stepping forward and completely blocking view.Before Mr Hale
