We settled at the back of the chaffeur driven Car. We drove past the bustling city and the honking horns. Catherine sat beside me and Lucas sat in front with the chauffeur.

I looked at my phone several times expecting Ethan's usual morning text but got none and it gave me an uneasy feeling which I decided to wave aside and focus on the moment.

    Ethan leaned in and closed the laptop with a soft thud“Love, dress up. There are people I’d like you to meet”“And who is that?” I asked “It’s a surprise love” he replied with a conspiratorial smile“I’ll wait for you downstairs”“Okay…” I wore a red dress that complemented my skin tone perfectly. I caught my reflection in the mirror with a satisfied smile before heading downstairs. I went downstairs to find Ethan and waiting for meWe drove to a fancy restaurant and I assumed it would just be the two of us and maybe the surprise guest but when we entered, I realized the room was filled with the BlackwoodsWe exchanged pleasantries and began to eat. After the meal, my curiosity deepened and I asked Ethan who he had wanted me to seeHe wore a disappointed expression and said“Sorry, love, the person couldn't make it” I curled my lips in displeasure and pressed“Love, can you at least tell me who that person is?”“If I tell you, it wouldn’t be a surprise and I know you like surpr

    The ride home was filled with silence that carries so much weightI had never seen Lucas this angry and I also realized I had also not seen Ethan and Lucas in a fight. Lucas always listens to Ethan.Ethan kept murmuring under his breath“He wants to leave then let him leave. He knows I can easily get a replacement”I leaned in quietly watching the restless Ethan pace back and forth Ethan paused and gave me a sharp gaze“Why aren’t you saying anything, love? Whose side are you on?”I shook my head slightly “None, Ethan”For a moment Ethan gave me a questionable gaze and then asked“What do you have to say?”I began to speak“Remember when you allowed Harrison purchase a share in the company?” That memory seemed to soften him, his posture eased and a calmer expression returned to his faceI continued,“Or the time the shareholders almost removed you from being a CEO because you chose to be with me?”“Love, mistakes happen” I concludedEthan led me down the corridor towards Lucas’ roo

    It wasn’t like Lucas not to join us for breakfastJust as I was about to ask where he had vanished to, he emerged from the room all dressed and readyCatherine didn’t miss the moment and asked Lucas why he didn’t come down for breakfast but he replied that he has work to do. Ethan and Lucas eyes met but there was an unspoken tension between them. Lucas excused himself but later returned with a new request. “Avery, I think I’ll be needing someone to act as my secretary,” he said“You have a secretary” Ethan said in a serious tone“I need Avery to come with me” Lucas insisted“Love, let me go with him” I saidand Lucas gave a small relieved nodThe ride to Harrison’s group carried a stretched silence. I felt certain that something was brewing and I hope it wasn’t destructiveIn a concerned tone, I asked“Lucas are you okay?”He gripped the steering wheel tighter and barely whispered“Am fine, Avery” The thick and encompassing silence continued againThen Lucas broke it with a tremor

    “You see Ethan, I’m still a good cook” I said as the gentle aroma of the breakfast wafted through my nostrilsEthan flashed a knowing grin and replied“I know you are. You want a reward for that?”I nodded and he gave a wide care free laughAt that moment, Catherine and Ma Jane walked into the kitchen together and froze in place when they realized we made breakfast Ma Jane spoke, “Child, you don’t have to make breakfast, the workers can do it” I shrugged with a playful twinkle“Ethan put me up to it”Then i shooed them to ward the dinning“Please leave the kitchen and wait up in the dining area”During breakfast Catherine said“Avery, you and Ethan should watch the twins today. I need to show Jane around the fashion house”“Huh!?” I repliedThe thought of being alone with the twins for the first time swirled through my mind. How do I manage to comfort and entertain them “Don’t worry Avery. I’ll call one of the nannies to come over” Ethan chimed in“For just a few hours?” Catherine

Dad's home isn't as modern as the mansionHe refused any renovation insisting that it holds too many memories to disturbWe started eating in a gentle contemplative silence, then Catherine broke it with“Everyone, especially Mr Pierce, it looks like Janet has something to say to y'all”Ma Jane flashed Catherine a quick glance“Not now” she muttered Catherine pressed on,“No better time Janet.
