The next day,

I stood on my balcony. My face, straight, with dark circles beneath my eyes.

I was not able to sleep well last night. Combined with that old bastard who kept on trying to reach me and ask for my help, simply because I switched on my business cell phone.

Though, thanks to him, I had to switch the cell phone off and toss it aside in the drawer. He was wasting my time. If he needed me to save his life, he should present the 30 percent company shares to me already.

    It was a few minutes drive, and before I knew it, the car was parked in front of a massive building. I waited patiently inside the car and one of the bodyguards came and opened the door to the back seat. “After you, Georgina”. I said to Mirabel with a wink. Mirabel hesitantly nodded at me, before she got down from the car. I followed suit and got out of the car, letting the bodyguard hold onto my hand as I stepped down. In front of us was a huge red carpet. And standing at the sides were countless reporters whose cameras never ceased to flash. “What a sight. How troublesome”. I said and took out my black shade eyeglasses from my purse. I put on my eyeglasses and said to Mirabel, “Come on. Let's go. Don't keep standing there like a statue”. I wore a blank expression on my face as I walked down the red carpet with Mirabel walking behind me. The reporters tried to invade the red carpet… each one of them eager to take a picture of me. Seeing how crazily the cameras flashed the min

    “Don't you dare think about laying your filthy hands on her again. I promise, if you dare try to touch her again, it won't end well for you”. Nicholas said to Mr Cole with glaring eyes before he actually let go of his hand. Mr Cole nodded and pointed his finger at me. “This isn't over. I promise”. He said, before he turned away and left with his son. They got into the car and a few seconds later, the four cars drove off. “Thank you, Nicholas, for stepping up and protecting me. But I could have totally handled him on my own. Don't forget that I am a black belt”. I said to him, and soon returned to the estate. ‘What the hell is he hiding from me?’. I thought to myself massaging my temples, as Nicholas' existence only made me get curious day after day. I needed to find out who he truly was, but he was being so secretive, and it was almost impossible for me to figure him out. …It was 6:00 p.m. Evening arrived in the blink of an eye. “You look really gorgeous, Gina”. Clara said to

    After leaving the dining room, I went to find Nicholas and saw him outside the building. I went and stood beside him. “What is so urgent that you had to come to the dining room yourself to tell me about it?”. I asked him. “It's Cole. His cars are outside the estate. He said that he would not leave until you came out with your kids and apologized to his son”. “He said his son had not been able to sleep after the incident. And that you and your children are held responsible for it”. “What do you plan to do now, Gina? I can quietly deal with him for you if you want”. Nicholas said. “No need for that, actually. I will go out there and see him myself”. I declared. “Then I will follow you”. Nicholas said.I nodded at Nicholas and did not plan on stopping him. Nicholas led the way and I followed him. We were heading out of the estate. It took a few minutes before we arrived at the gates, and the gate was opened for us and I stepped out with Nicholas, who was ahead of me. The minute

    “Why don't you have a look at your new face, Mirabel?”. I said to her after the mirror was given to her. Mirabel's breath was shaky as she reluctantly looked at her face in the mirror. The moment she saw her reflection in the mirror, her eyes widened, and the mirror instantly fell off her hand and shattered on the floor. “This cannot be”. Mirabel said, and her hands had begun to tremble. There was complete horror in her eyes as she stared at me. “What did you do to me?”. Mirabel asked me and her eyes had reddened, with tears threatening to escape from them. “I told you that I was going to give you her face. So, you will do her bidding using her face”. I said to Mirabel with a blank look in my eyes. I grinned, grabbing Mirabel's chin. “Judging by the look in your eyes, it makes me understand that you recognize her. It is clear that you have never forgotten about her. I said to her. “How- how did you know Mrs Georgina?” Mirabel asked me. I bet she was completely curious. “She d

    Marvin's pov, “Spread the news about my decision to remarry, Jeremy. Let it be known of my plans to get married to CEO Daisy”. I said to Jeremy. “I will inform the media house about this”. Jeremy replied to me, before trying to step out of my office. But I stopped him from leaving the second after his hand touched the door knob. “How is your progress in the task I have assigned you to do?”. I demanded, expecting a positive reply from him.Jeremy let go of the door knob and turned to face me. He said to me, “I will try my best to acquire their hair as soon as possible, boss Marvin. It is just that-”. “What?”. I asked him, glaring into his eyes. “Doctor Gina is being overprotective of her kids. She had some men standing guard around and outside Maxwell academy each day to protect the kids. It is almost impossible for our men to get close enough to them”. Jeremy said to me, but I wasn't going to accept his reply. “I give you 24 hours, Jeremy. You must find a way to acquire their h

    “Wait, what?”. Maddie exclaimed, and the spoon in her hand fell on the table. She stared at Clara, giving her a ‘look, as she said, “Tell me. Is this for real, cousin? Did she really do what she just said?”. Clara directed her spoon of chicken soup into her mouth, before she nonchalantly replied to Maddie, saying, “Why don't you go to the basement and check it out yourself, Maddie?”. Maddie got up from her chair. She was looking at Clara and me as she said, “Are both of you really serious about this right now?”.“If you are so curious, you can go ahead and check it out, Maddie. The basement is over there. There is literally no one stopping you from going there”. I said to her, with eyes fixed on my food. “Do you need more chicken soup, kids?”. I asked Lily and Lewis, and they both nodded at me. “Seriously, am I the only one who is so surprised and bothered by this?”. Maddie said and ended up massaging her temples after no one replied to her. Maddie sighed. “I think I need to sl
