MasukCHAPTER 116Scarlett I was in the workroom trying to finish the last part of Aldric's suit when Jenny walked in and asked if I needed anything but I was fine so told her to get busy.“I received flowers from Mr. Stone. Would you like me to—”"Ask my security to dispose them,” I looked at Jenny."But ma'am you—”"Should I repeat myself?” I lifted my brows."No ma'am. I'm sorry.”"Now do what I asked you to,” I said before she walked out.I could tell that she was confused since I haven't mentioned a thing about what happened to us. I was honestly just not into receiving. “Scarlett Brown," I heard the voice of the woman that made Aldric run after her.“What are you doing here?" I turned around.“Nothing much I just thought of paying you a visit at a personal level," she smiled.“I don't think I need you so you may just leave." “Not so soon darling. I just thought that you deserve to know who I am and what the hell I could do for Aldric," she placed her purse on the desk."I don't thi
CHAPTER 110Scarlett The past few days have just be so fulfilling. I've found love and are just getting to see a different side of men I've never imagined existed. I didn't know what's going in in Aldric Stone’s head but the amount of love, respect and consistency he's giving me is just out of this world.My room is film with so many gifts and I haven't even gotten a chance to open any. I was about to head to the café when Richard Zoe's ex- boyfriend requested to talk to me.At first I was hesitant but later asked him to join me instead. I don't know what was going in his head but asking me to help him win Zoe back was just impossible. She's already found love in the arms of Miguel. He was genuine and everything Richard could never be.“Are you going to talk to her?" he asked and I wasn't going to lie in my response.“No Richard. Scarlett has already made up her mind OK. Nothing you or I will say can convince her otherwise." “Scarlett please just do me this one favor. I don't wan

CHAPTER 113 Daniel I just realized how much of a fool I am after I heard about Melissa's reappearance. In my head, I was just expecting something bad to happen to Aldric, so I got a chance to go into Scarlett's life, but what happened instead was even better than that. My mother made sure to find the Mafia princess and convinced her to take Aldric away from Scarlett. We all know how dangerous the Ross Mafia group is, and we weren't going to try anything with them. Once Melissa is finished with Aldric he's not even going to know from which angle he was hit. I made my way out of the boardroom feeling relieved after I fired some of my staff members. I wasn't going to have people who are stealing from me. Loyalty is something I expected even though I wasn't around for long. I was about to head to the lift when I noticed my Mom on a phone call in my office. I could tell whatever the caller was speaking about was something interesting. “Oh, Daniel is here too," Mom said, and Melis
CHAPTER 112 Aldric I know things looked very bad when I ran after Melissa that day but it wasn't what it seemed like. The moment Melissa walked into Scarlett's office. I was surprised and scared at the same time. I know a powerful man like me isn't supposed to be but Melissa is the daughter of the most feared Mafia in the country. We had something going on, but I just lost interest, and everyone went their way. She's been away for the past 5 years and suddenly appeared in Scarlett's office. That was enough to scare the life out of me. I'm sure Scarlett's detail just let her in because they thought she was with me. At that moment a lot was going on in my head. Protecting Scarlett had to seem like being on Melissa's side. I know it hurt and confused her. Which is something I didn't want for her. I've never wanted to ever make Scarlett doubt me but letting Melissa walk out of there without clearing the air wasn't going to be good if anything bad happened. I ran after Melissa and th
CHAPTER 111 Scarlett “You've got to be kidding right? She asked, trying not to believe what I just said but the tears in my eyes were enough to confirm. " I wish I were Zoe. She walked into my office and made sure to make him jump to his feet at her sight,” I started before narrating the entire story to Zoe, who was still finding everything weird. "Ah! I'm so sorry Scarlett. It's so funny how men always have a way of disappointing us. Aldric—” "Please don't say his name again,” I cut her off. "I'm sorry. I know it hurts and is the worst that could have happened, sweetie, but I'm here for you,” Zoe said before Gina walked into my bedroom, and I quickly lowered my head so I could wipe those tears. "Mommy did something fall?” she asked, walking towards me. "No baby. I was just removing a hair that entered my eye," I lied before she asked if she could help me remove it. “Uhmm, no, baby. I think it's out now. So how have you been?" I smiled. I don't know where all that strength
