"You are the only one that can do this Sapphire, not because of the flimsy excuses they gave but because they know you would do," The older woman said staring right ahead her rich hazel eyes glazing over while she brush her hand into her gray hair, the rich curls bouncing against her perfectly trimmed nails with no color on it.

"Damn them all! Damn them all for thinking that I would bend to their wishes when I don't give a flying fuck about them, this family may rot in hell for all I care," She snapped, the anger in her voice and body with the way she was shaking and she stared heatedly at her grandmother. "Why did you find me for them when you know so well that I don't want to be anywhere near them judging by the place you found me," Sapphire said, squinting her eyes at her so hard they turned to slits.

Emiliana knew that she would ask this question at some point but she didn't want to ask it so soon and straight forward, her granddaughter really changed so much. But since she wanted it straightforward the least she could do is give her that.

"They agreed to release Ruby,"

All anger in Sapphire's body sizzled before it defused and she calmed down, all the tension in the room dissipated, that name is enough to make her turn mute.

"....." She whispered like it is a great secret nobody must hear. "Why do I have to get involved when you can't, you just go take him from them," she continued.

Ruby Conrad has been in Styles Industry as a singer doubling as model, he was just everything every entertainment industry needed, rich, stylish, charming, handsome, a face that you would most definitely look at more than twice but most of all, that voice that makes you want to listen to him twenty-four hours a day and seven days a week that only belong to the unique celebrity.

Not that Ruby can't stay alone under nobody but he wanted to experience what it is like in a team, he tested it and he really liked it until he wanted to stop working under Stayles and they didn't like that at all. He refused to renew the contract but the entertainment forced him to stay with. He was threatened and blackmailed, he was supposed to be released a year ago by the Gray until the asshole showed how bad he could really be.

"I am not needed at the airport to show my face and look good as...," She trailed off when she realized the reason why she needed to get married to the man they wanted her to marry.

"Yes, the Aldines are the one that would make those bunch of shits release your twin, of course they won't do that for fun, they are known to only mind their own business, they won't get involved if you aren't related to them,"

"But you are still a part of that family too, grandmother, why can't they help you?"

"They only help those directly related to them, as a wife you would be, but as the adopted daughter of the niece of a distant cousin of a great grandfather, no I don't stand a chance,"

"....."

"Sapphire," Emiliana took her hands in hers and patted it rhythmically. "I know that it's so unfair dragging you back here when your family still doesn't know your worth but you are the only person that can save him. Your twin has been there for too long," she squeezed her hands. "Nobody can force you to do this but Ruby deserves better than those bunch of assholes."

Sapphire stared at Emiliana and sighed, she owed Ruby this much, he would have definitely been there for her if he was there a year ago, the guy had to hear of her plight through the media simply because they were not allowed to talk to him.

She remembered those times when she used to be so callow, he was the one with the sophisticated brain, wedging her every time she made bad decisions.

Now,he is the one with the bad decision, she has to wedge him and if there is anybody she could make that decision for, it's Ruby.

"Okay, I will do it, when am I getting married?" She asked and Emiliana breathed out in relief.

"You are not getting married right away, you will be engaged to him for six months or maybe a year, before having an actual wedding but you would be married to him legally," she explained and Sapphire nodded, this is the least she could do for him. "You should go to your room and relax, I will tell them about your decision, both the Aldines and the Conrads.”

She got out of the room and released a deep breath, she made her way to her room where the maids already left her luggage.

—---------------

“Hello, Melissa,” Arielle said into the phone as soon as she was away from the door, she had been standing here and listening to the conversation between Sapphire and Grandmother.

“Is the road clear?”

“Yeah, Sapphire already agreed to marry the man, you can get back home, I didn't want you to have to wait for your mother becàuse granny haven't told them about it,”

“Sapphire is in a damn trouble, but isn't that what we like?” She asked and Arielle could hear the smirk in her words which made her let out one of her own.

“I am just glad that I was able to escape the damn marriage,” Arielle said and paused when she saw Venita walk across the hall, she tutted.

“Venita is back too, she is as arrogant as usual, she is so sure that she won't be forced because of the nature of her job,”

“Should we deal with that bitch, I am beginning to get irritated, she gets on every single nerve in my body and I have millions of that,” Melissa said.

“When are you coming back?”

“Today, of course, the deed is done. Maybe I should also get Over here,” she said with a smirk.

Arielle hung up the call and rolled her eyes at the phone.

“Bitch,” she spat at it.

—----------------

Sapphire went to sit on the bed and took out her phone before dialing a number, it rang for a while before it was picked up on the other side.

"My big baby, I missed you so much," A feminine voice squealed from the other side and she rolled her eyes smiling.

"I have been gone for just two days,"

"Exactly, that's it, a whole forty two hours, that's ," she whined "and you are far away,"

"Stop being so dramatic, Luci," she scolded and she could picture her pouting.

"Ok, so how is that hellhole you are, are you coping, have you seen that devil's mistress, and the perfect imbecile, what about the mass media and the devil's advocate?" Luci practically vomited and Sapphire laughed and she could picture her pouting again.

"Calm down, drama queen, I met them all except Melissa, turned out she ran away because she didn't want to get married to Triple A's CEO, she called me this morning though, to tell me beforehand that I am getting married and now I have to get married to him and my mother has not changed and Felix thinks that he still has right to tell me what to do, imagine the nerve of that man, he---,"

"Wait, wait, wait, back up, slow down, like wtf!"

"Okay," she said, exhaling deeply.

"But what, you are getting married to the CEO of Triple A's?" She asked in disbelief.

"Hmm, yeah," she said, nodding absentmindedly, squeezing the pillow.

She explained everything that has happened since she landed at the airport to the moment she called and they both exhaled heavily at the same time.

"So now you are getting married to an old man now,"

"Yeah, I am," she said, sulking. "Wait.. what do you mean by an Old Man?"

"The CEO is a seventy-one year old man,"

"What?!”

    Last time, it was her family signing a fake marriage contract, but this time, she was having a real engagement party.Alexander was talking with a the same man he was talking to that day, and was standing at that same spot, only this time, the spot where Melissa stood was acquired by Luci and Zayn, they were chatting heartily, a man tried to pass and almost bumped into Luci but Zayn quickly wrapped his hand around her waist and pulled her to the side, they both talked to the man and resumed their conversation, but Zayn hands never left Luci’s waist which made Sapphire smile.Not too far from them were Tiara and Fiona who seemed to be having a serious conversation. Fiona was the one speaking while Tiara just stared at her.“You finally decided to show your face out here?” Mr. Aldine said and Sapphire laughed, it was a small and quiet laugh.“I am sorry for not visiting you since all this while,” Sapphire said.“I understand. You have been busy, besides I have the kids by my side most o

    “The only thing I love the most about everything here is your ring, I mean, would you check out that beautiful thing?” Tiara who was dressed to perfection gushed, she bent beside Sapphire and held her hand up to her face, and she stared at the ring with a gooey look in her eyes. She had asked Sapphire to remove it to let her examine it but Sapphire had refused to do that.“You have been saying that you loved the ring in a thousand different phrases ever since you saw that ring on her finger,” Gladys said beside her, Sapphire didn’t know that someone could look so hot in a super short dress at an engagement party but she managed to rock it hard. Gladys rrolled her eyes at her friend who only pouted at her before turning back to the ring.“Just how much was it worth? Did you ask him?” Luci asked as she perched herself on the beautiful chair that Sapphire was sitting, she also stared at it in admiration. Luci had gone for the dark look with her floor length back dress that was slit all t

    Headache shot up her head when she hit her head on the floor and she willed it to split apart in order to stop, she could only groan in her throat and curse Sapphire and her friends over and over in her head.She turned to her head and felt every single part of her body freeze, she didn’t even dare to blink, it would make too much noise and her body was particularly capable of that feat.Just a foot away from her were giant scorpions, they were huddled together at a spot and were unmoving, her eyes trailed upward and a gasp would have fell from her lips if she didn’t have that gag because she saw a snake crawled on the ground into a spot and came out of another opened one, that was when she saw the snake for what it was; a viper.Cold sweat covered her and her body started shaking in fear, her inability to run her way out of this dangerous ditch also made her terrified, it would be the end of her if she was attacked.She tried to move back only for back to slam heavily on what seemed

    “You shouldn’t do this to me, if you do this to me you would be a murderer too,” Arielle said, desperately and Sapphire shrugged.“Doesn’t matter. We Conrad are known for being villainous already, if I emerged as a murderer, people won’t be shocked, they would be even glad that I got rid of you for them.” Sapphire said and nodded. “Here is what we would do. Try to convince me to not kill you, I am listening,” Sapphire gestured to her with her hands.“Aren’t you afraid of ending up in hell?” she blurted out and Sapphire stared at her with a dumbfounded expression, everyone paused what they were doing but Luci was the first person that burst into laughter, she doubled as she tried to control her laughter and catch her breath but she couldn’t stop herself.“What?” Sapphire asked in disbelief and she started chuckling before she started to laugh . Zayn was snickering from where he sat and staring at Arielle with the expression that screams ‘No, you didn’t just say that bitch.”Some of the

    Arielle sat in the cell that was reserved for only ‘hardened criminals’ like her, that’s what everyone referred to her as, she even saw some of the prisoners flinched when she brushed her hand passed them.Even though they call her suspect in face of any camera they see, they treat worse than a murderer that has went to court and branded as on, they should at least picked her to court first.She thought about the day’s event and laughed out loud, maniacally and hysterically, the wardens at her door glanced at her once before they turned to resume their duties of staring, at least that was what she assumed, she only saw their eyes through the small space at the top of the iron door and she didn’t saw them again when they moved.Melissa had been sentenced to life imprisonment. Very good! That was what she had planned from the beginning of her plan, the one she drew when she was sixteen, that was the only plan that was to her aid.
