last update Last Updated: 2025-04-19 21:46:41

Later that day, when it was evening, Ryan was in a pub sipping a glass of wine. Erik walked in and went straight to him.

“Good evening, man,” Erik said. “Sorry I took some time.”

“I've been here for the past twenty minutes,” Ryan replied. “What were you doing the whole time?”

Erik sat down. “I already apologized. I just had to deal with something that came up.”

They ordered extra bottles to serve their time there. While they drank, Erik brought up the topic for discussion.

“What did you say happened back there in Brazil? I was definitely not expecting to see you here.”

Ryan heaved a sigh and dropped his glass. A little flash of what had ensued the previous day came running through his mind.

“Erik, those kids are mine,” he said.

Erik was confused for a minute. He had no idea what Ryan was talking about.

“Those kids,” Erik said. “I don't think I understand what you are trying to say.”

Ryan gulped at his drink and dropped it again.

“I mean Ava's kids. They are definitely mine.

    A couple of moments later, Ryan sped into the parking area of Avalon corp and jumped out. Then, he ran as fast as he could to the elevator. His heart was beating faster than normal. He had no idea what he was supposed to do next. But somehow, he just wanted to stop Ava from taking all those people away from him. When the elevator clicked and stepped out, his entire body froze. It was already too late for him to do anything. It appeared the meeting was over before he could arrive. There were faces of the people that were once his people all over the place. “Mr Ryan Blake,” one of them called him and smiled. “Thank you for firing us. Now, my life will be dedicated to something good instead of working for your ungrateful family.” Ryan had nothing to say. He was not in the position to lay any sort of blame on anyone at all. Kristie brought this upon him. Sharon stepped out of the meeting room with Ava's handbag and some documents. On seeing Ryan, she approached him. “Good morning, Si

    Ava arrived at her office around a couple of minutes past 8am. Her secretary, Sharon, was on standby, waiting to carry her bag from her. Arnold got down and opened the door for her. “Thank you, honey,” she said with a smile on her face. “Are you sure you don't need me to be there while you speak with them?” Arnold asked. “I don't mind speaking to them on your behalf. This could be—” “Shhhh,” Ava said casually with a smile on her face while using her index finger to shut Arnold up. “Don't worry about me. This is not going to be a big deal. You can trust me on that.”Arnold grasped her hands gently. “I'm only being concerned here. I understand these guys probably have a sort of resentment against Blake Haven group. But I don't know if it'll be that easy to have them on your side.” Ava smiled at him. “This is Avalon corp, not just any business group out there. I need to go now.” Arnold held her shoulders firmly and landed a soft kiss on her forehead before leaving. Ava turned her a

    It felt like the rest of the talk about his love for her got slapped back into his throat. He definitely wasn't expecting Ava to bring up the talk about what's going on in Blake Haven. “What?” He asked. Ava rolled her eyes and pushed her hair over her ear. “Come on, Arnold,” Ava said. “You know what I'm talking about. I can understand if you don't have any information yet on the case. But I do need to get my hands on something as quickly as possible.” Without giving him a chance to even respond, she turned to the car. “We should be on the move right now,” she said. They both got in and the car began to move. Arnold processed his words carefully in his head. Then, he suddenly pretended to have received a phone call. After a while of faking a listening attention, he said, “Okay,” to the inexistent caller. Then, he slid the phone back into his pocket. Ava looked at him. He was not saying anything about what she had requested earlier on. “What…was that about?” She asked. Arnold

    When it was night, Ryan arrived at his father's house. He parked the car and stormed into the house while his father was having dinner. “Father,” he called. “What have you done?” Mr Blake didn't even look at him. He simply took a paper roll and dabbed it over his lips. Then, he got up and turned to Ryan. “You have not greeted me, son,” the man said casually. Ryan was not in the mood for any long talks. He needed to know and understand what was going on. “Good evening, father,” he said hurriedly. “But I doubt there is anything good about the evening.” His father looked at him, but said nothing immediately. The man walked past him and got to the living room where he sat down. “And why is that so? Is there a problem?” Ryan was trying so hard to hold down the frustration and anger that he was feeling at the moment. He joined his father and sat down. “What has happened in the business?” He queried. “I spoke with Kristie and she told me that you knew about the move that she made.

    When it was night, Ava and Arnold were done playing with the kids and putting them to sleep. Then, she went outside and sat by the pool, trying to clear certain thoughts out of her mind. After the odd visit by Kristie and the strange request to form an alliance, she was caught up in thoughts. Could it be something planned to test her? Or was Kristie really trying to bring Ryan to the ground? Arnold walked out with a bottle of orange juice and two glasses. He came from behind and pecked Ava on her right cheek. “Hello, sweetheart,” he said casually with a smile on his face. “Hey,” Ava said and smiled, squeezing her hands in-between her knees. “Is that….wine?” Arnold sat in the chair beside her and shrugged. “Would you prefer wine?” He asked. “This is orange juice.” Ava giggled. “Just perfect for my mood right now.” Arnold placed the juice and the glasses on the fancy stool between them. Then, he gently broke the seal and poured some into their respective glasses. As he handed h

    Many moments later, Ava was in her office scrolling through the internet. There were just numerous headlines about the Blake Haven group that got her hooked. While she was at it, the door opened and Sharon walked in with a little bit of enthusiasm registered on her face. Ava reclined in her chair. “Why does it look like you are happy about something?” Ava asked her. Sharon giggled as she stood before her boss. “Ma'am, that's not really the case,” she replied. “I would not say I'm happy, but at the same time, it kind of got me hooked.” Ava dropped her phone and locked her fingers together over her thighs. She cleared her throat and said, “So, tell me about it.” “There is something going on with the Blake Haven group,” she said. On hearing that, Ava pushed herself and leaned forward. That was the trending topic online. “Now, I'm curious,” Ava said. “Why is Blake Haven trending everywhere on the internet?” “Ma'am, something happened that's kind of awkward. Perhaps, you have not
