Nova wore a soft smile as she watched Jane take a seat.

She was clearly happy to see her, and so was Jane. Their smiles beaming with every excitement that came with it.

“You look gorgeous anyway,” Jane complimented Nova, forcing her to blush lightly.

“Thanks, darling. You've made my day. Compared to that sick psycho that just left my office,” Nova sighed, furiously glaring at the door.

“Tell me about it,” Jane smiled softly, giving Nova a soft nudge on her shoulder.

“You won't believe it. She came into my office this morning, neglecting what she actually came here for. Just to lecture me about my character,”

Jane let out a rather sarcastic laughter. “What does she know about character development? She sucks at relationships with people,” Jane mocked while trying her best not to laugh so hard.

Nova snapped her finger in affirmation. “That's right. Do you see the way she speaks to clients? She's literally the rudest staff we have in this firm,” Nova chuckled.

“You're right. I no

    Nova glared at Jane, a wave of shock surging through her spine. “What do you mean?” Nova asked, her eyebrows furrowed in confusion. Jane chuckled, laughing like she had just heard a joke. “You should have seen your face. You looked so pathetic,” Jane teased. Nova still looked confused, her expression looking very perplexed. “I don't understand.” “Easy Nova. I was just teasing. I am just trying to say that I want a man who will treat me the same way Eryx treats you. I want him sooner,” Jane said, seductively biting her lips as she winked at Nova. “You shouldn't be playing with something as sensitive as that,” Nova warned, her expression looking perplexed. “Relax, Nova. Nobody is taking your man from you. Not me anyway. Trust me,” Jane said, softly patting her on her shoulder. Nova was still disturbed about her reply, but she decided to allow the subject to die. There was no use of dwelling on it anyway. Nova and Jane finished up with their meal, and retired back to work. When

    Nova's face was very confused. Her amnesia wasn't helping at all. What do you mean “betray you like I did before?” Her brows sprang up demanding some explanations.Exyx ran his hands through his hair for the upteenth time. It was his plan to feed her with more lies. Because as far he was concerned she was never going to get her memories back.“Of course you can't remember Nova”. His eyes watered with pretentious years and his voice quivered like a child whose candy had been stolen.“Would you believe it if I had told you that you cheated on me with zephyr?” His voice sounded bitter.“What?” Nova couldn't believe she would do something like this to her fiance. How could she have done that? From her little time she spent with him after her amnesia she felt she could trust him. Her guts says so. But maybe she never heard of the saying “ your guts cannot be trusted”.“I.. I don't know what to say, I can't even remember”. She took a step towards him. But he stepped back.“It's okay flower.

    “You know no matter how Eryx actually tries, he can never be as good as you, zephyr. You have the Brains and everything. It's like a package you were born with”. Alex explained with hand gestures.“So…. How does this help me get back at him?” The impatience in his voice could not be ignored.“I am not done, zeph. If you can just keep quiet for a second, then maybe you would have heard what I actually want to say”. Alex said with clenched teeth. He doesn't really like the way Zephyr is behaving.Zephyr nodded. The only people who could actually speak to him this way were his close friends, his mother and his love Nova. Any other person would be immediately buried alive.Alex took a deep sigh before he continued to speak. “I recently found out that he has been struggling to put the business together. And he has gotten himself in some illegal contracts and embezzlement”.“Now he wants Nova to come into a serene neighborhood to promote the company. And that neighborhood happens to be the g

    “Don't you know how to do your damn work. Eryx yelled over the phone. You know how much this deal means to me and don”. He said, referring to an underground boss.“I….I am so sorry sir. I am going to fix this”. A timid voice behind the phone panicked.“You fucking do that. Or else your wretched mother won't make it to another day”. He threatened without mercy nor without a flinch in his face.As soon as he finished talking, he slammed the phone to the floor. “FUCK, FUCK”. he yelled out. This wasn't the plan. Why was the business having problems in his tenure? The only thing he did was gamble a little. How did it end up affecting him? He thought In silence.But maybe he should have asked himself what he gambled or his condition of gambling. He gambled into partnership with the Mafia.He remembered vividly how it all played out. At first he was boasting about how good he was at these games and how no one could beat him. Even the don. “If I lose I will give up the Lockwood, holdings and f

    The screeching of the door followed as Nova walked in, looking quite perplexed. Her eyebrows furrowed deeply as she glared at Eryx, in towards bewilderment of her environment. “What is going on? You were yelling loudly on the phone. Who was that?” She inquired, her tone laced with utter urgency. Her eyes immediately caught Eryx's broken phone, which lay on the floor. She then took a glance at Eryx. His furious eyes glared right at the shattered phone on the ground. Nice quickly took reseeding steps, creating a distance between Eryx and herself. She gasped in shock as her mouth was left open, yet no words could come out. Eryx, noticing Nova's presence, quickly forced a smile on his face, rubbing his hair lightly as he turned to her. He cleared his throat, locking his gaze onto Nova. “It's nothing. I'm fine,” he assured, patting her shoulder softly as he attempted to leave the room. Nova quickly grabbed his hand, forcing him to turn towards her again. Eryx glared furiously, ev

    Besides, it's all she's got in a situation like this. “I'll get you a glass of water,” Eryx said, leaving the sitting room as he headed towards the kitchen. Nova's countenance was utterly perplexed, and a deep frown edged on her face as her mind reeled about several thoughts. Eryx has been good to her, and he has done nothing but look after her, but the sudden doubts are quite disturbing. “I must be overthinking,” she shook her head as she relaxed on the sofa. “Did you say something?” Eryx asked as he offered her a glass of water. Nova accepted it, but quickly let go of the cup as she felt another sharp sensation on her head. “What's going on?” Eryx panicked, helplessly trying to help her calm down. Nova screamed incessantly as she dealt with the excruciating pain on her head. “Hey mum, I'll love you to fix my favourite dish,” little Nova said, walking in to meet her mother in the kitchen. “What's your favourite dish, pumpkin?” Her mother asked, kneeling down to meet her heig

    Nova quickly shook her head, forcing herself to stop thinking a lot. Her mind was reeling a lot, and Nova felt this was too much for her. “What is the problem? You're not eating your food,” Eryx inquired curiously, holding Nova's soft palm in his. Nova forced a soft smile on her face, masking her perplexed countenance.“I'm fine. I need to use the restroom,” Nova quickly excused herself as she rushed towards the restroom. Eryx lifted his head slightly as he watched her leave. He was beginning to suspect her recent action, but he couldn't tell what was actually going on. Nova quickly shut the door behind her as she paced up and down in her room. Her hand rested beneath her jaw, eyebrows furrowed as she restlessly walked round the room. She kept pondering on the memories she was having lately. Eryx, Zephyr and Jane were the only people she found remember. But deep down, she felt there was more to it. “What if they aren't important people in my life? What if Eryx is lying to me

    Nova was busy with the mails, responding and reading all mails that came in. Suddenly, a soft knock echoes from the wooden door, forcing their instincts to pique immediately. “Are you expecting anybody?” Eryx' instincts flared as his eyes remained fixated in the door. This days he was always paranoid.“No. Are you sure it isn't room service?” Nova replied, her expression filled with uncertainty. Because she wasn't expecting anyone.The knock repeated, persisting even further. Eryx was forced to have a look. He took a peek through the door hole, and gasped in shock. “Jane,” he whispered huskily, pulling the door slightly open. “Yeah, you look pathetic. Have you been working all day?” Jane asked, judging from Eryx’ worn out expression. “Who's there?” Nova inquired curiously. The voice outside sounded familiar, nut she needed clarity anyway. “Is everything ok, Eryx?” she persisted as she received no reply from her previous enquiry. “It's me, Jane!” she yelled, leaving Eryx with

    Meanwhile back at the Blackwoods mansion. The family had just finished eating dinner. Zephyr, together with Tiana, were walking his mother and Lilian back to the car.“You know son, you made the best decision. Now you can focus on bringing up your new family and forget about that witch”. His mother snickered with fine wrinkles. She couldn't contain the joy she felt that Nova was gone.Zephyr took a deep breath.This wasn’t a simple betrayal, it was a knife to the heart, twisted with such precision that every nerve seemed to scream in agony.“Alright mum”. He simply said without any emotion. He could feel Tiana hands on his shoulders giving him some certainty.“Don't be sad bro. Good people deserve good things and Nova isn't good for you”. Lilian said without thinking. She just wanted to give him some word of affirmation even though she didn't really care.Zephyr nodded again politely as he watched them go to the car and soon they zoomed off.

    Eryx gasped in shock as he watched Zephyr briskly walk out of the cell, looking so full of himself. Zephyr glared at him keenly as he walked past him, his eyes embedded with so much fury. He tried his beat to hold himself back because it would be stupid to start a fight with Eyrx in this place. He just got out of prison, and he wasn't going back in there. “How did you get out, huh? How? Don't ignore me!” Eryx yelled.But Zephyr ignored him as he walked out of prison. “You can't hurt me anyway. I'll make sure of that!” Eryx yelled at the top of his voice, helplessly watching Zephyr walk away. “Here, sign these documents,” Eryx said, passing some documents onto Zephyr. The board members had organised a meeting with the mayor and Zephyr in regards to signing the documents pertaining to the project. Even though Eryx wasn't happy to find himself working in the same room as Zephyr. But he had no choice. Suddenly, the door opened forcefully, and the police rushed in, armed to the t

    Zephyr glared at him furiously. His breathing grew enraged, following the rising amount of rage within his nerves. He quickly grabbed the man’s neck, firmly holding onto it with all his strength as letting go was farfetched in this situation. “How dare you talk to me like that, huh?” he asked furiously, his eyes furiously laced with reddened fury. Consecutive punches followed, landing without mercy on the man’s face. He wasn’t given a chance to retaliate because Zephyr took it all from him. Zephyr kept on throwing hits without thinking twice until people rushed to the scene, grabbing Zephyr off the already injured man. Zephyr kept struggling, trying to lose their grip on him, but it was a futile effort. In no time, sirens were heard outside the bar, and the police came rushing into the bar. “Get down! Stay down!” they yelled as they placed a handcuff around his hand and dragged him to the police car immediately. “Let me go! You should arrest him, he came at me first,"Zephyr ye

    Nova quickly gasped in shock, and her hands grabbed her open mouth as she realized what she had done. A deep sense of shock edged on her face as she glared at the man she had just slapped. The whole building was driven into great silence as their eyes were fixated on the scene. “I'm…” Nova tried to say something, but words couldn't come out. She was in a deep state of shock, and words had eluded her lips. “Are you OK? Nova, what happened?” Eryx asked, trying to snap Nova out of her moment of shock. “Hey, you. You're responsible for this, right?” Eryx asked, lashing out to the waiter in a fit of rage. He threw punches on the waiter who tried his best to protect his face from getting hit. “Eryx, stop!” Zephyr rushed into the scene, pulling Eryx off the waiter. But Eryx turned to Zephyr and threw a punch. Fortunately, Zephyr's reflexes were fast, and he was able to dodge the punch. But he dealt a finishing blow on Eryx’ face, sending him to the ground. Noca quickly snapped out

It's an after party, am I not supposed to be here?Nova kept casting a cold stare upon him, glaring at him with a rather stoic expression. Zephyr's jaw dropped open, and he stared at Nova's pretty face. Her eyes beamed with so much beauty. “Zephyr!” Nova snapped her fingers before his face. Zephyr immediately shook his head, snapping out of his thoughts immediately. A soft smile registered on his face while his eyes pierced into Nova's. “What? Why are you looking at me like that?” She asked curiously, her eyebrows furrowed as she pulled her face a bit away from Zephyr. “Why are you so interested in my life?” Zephyr asked softly with a soft smile on his face. “I don't understand,” Nova admitted. “You've been so concerned to know about my life, every little secret. You're technically stalking me,” Z

    Zephyr narrowed his gaze, glaring at Nova who stood few inches away from him. “What plan are you talking about?” He asked calmly. Nova's face hardened, her gaze firmly fixated on Zephyr. “I know you've laid plans to have me back and end up destroying Eryx’ life,” she claimed. “And who told you all this?” Zephyr maintained an incredibly calm demeanour. “I just want to tell you that I won't let any of that happen. No matter how hard you try, you're just going to end up ruining everything for yourself,” she added. Zephyr's eyes darted across the restroom, and he pointed towards a sign boldly written on the wall. “MEN ONLY,” the sign read. “What do you want to see inside here?” Zephyr scoffed, walking into the toilet. Nova's face took a deep frown, her eyebrows furrowed deeply, and her heart boiled with great rage. “Pervert!” She slammed her hand against the wall and walked out angrily. Nova felt utterly insulted and disgraced before him. “He dared to speak to me in such a man

    The gates opened, allowing Kevin to drive his car into the house. He alighted from his car, glaring at the mansion before him. He rolled his car key between his fingers, whistling as he slowly walked into the house. “Uncle!” Xavier rushed to Kevin as he entered the house, his smile beaming incessantly as he hugged him. Kevin bent his knee, reducing his height to meet Xavier. “You're now all grown, Xavier,” he said, a soft smile registered on his face. “Here. I got you this,” Kevin added, handing him a box of chocolate. “You shouldn't have gone through the stress if getting him something,” Zephyr said, walking down the stairs into the sitting room. “Zephyr. What a pleasure to see you,” Kevin said, giving him a warm hug. Zephyr's smile wouldn't stop beaming as he was very happy to see Kevin. “Xavier, go at your room with your nanny,” Zephyr ordered softly. He nodded and quickly followed his nanny to his room, leaving them alone in the sitting room. Kevin sat on the couch, cr
