The door creaked open, and before Chairman Paul could even step inside, Sadie sprang to her feet from the bed, her arms crossed over her chest. She strode forward, her eyes fixed intently on him. “You didn't come home last night? Where did you sleep? Where are you coming from?” The questions tumbled out in rapid succession.

She’d been waiting, coiled with tension, since the sound of his car had echoed through the driveway. As soon as he'd stepped in, she was ready to confront him.

Chairman Paul brushed past her concerns, walking straight to the bed. He sank onto the edge, his movements weary, and began to remove his wristwatch. As he set it down on the nightstand, Sadie closed in, her anger palpable.

“I'm talking to you,” she said, her voice even, careful not to let her tone get shrill. “You didn't come home, and you didn't even bother to call. I called you over and over, but you didn't pick up until your phone died, or maybe you switched it off.”

Chairman Paul’s response was direct,

  • Through The Gate Of Love   Chapter 60

    Elizabeth stepped out of the kitchen, her eyes drifting upward, only to collide with Vera's intense gaze as she emerged from Sadie’s room. Elizabeth’s gaze darted away, and she swiftly closed the door behind her, her feet carrying her toward the entrance with a sense of urgency. But before she could grasp the door handle, Vera’s grip closed around her arm, yanking her backward. “You think you can escape me?” Vera’s voice was low and menacing, her words dripping with challenge. “Where do you think you’re going? You’re stuck with me, like your own shadow— always there, always following.”Elizabeth shrugged, her expression defiant. “You’re not my shadow, are you?” She shot back, her voice firm and matching Vera’s intensity. “And even if you were, I’d shake you off in a heartbeat…”Her words tailed off, and she let out a soft, mocking laugh. “What am I saying?” She muttered, her tone laced with sarcasm. She crossed her arms, leaning slightly to one side, and rephrased with a hint of triu

    “Not again,” Kaylie muttered under her breath as she checked her phone screen. Gage’s name flashed for the sixth time after they departed this morning, his persistent calls a constant reminder of the rules she was expected to follow. She silenced the call, her fingers moving with practiced ease. “I’m not answering,” she whispered, but Natasha caught the words and chuckled softly beside her.“Ignoring his calls might not be the best idea, ma’am,” Natasha cautioned, her voice low. Kaylie’s gaze drifted back, her brow furrowed in concern. Before she could respond, Natasha elaborated, “If you don’t answer, he might just show up here”" “He’d do that?” She repeated, a hint of amusement creeping into her voice. She chuckled softly and continued toward her seat, her heels clicking on the floor as she ascended the short staircase. “Why would he do that?” Natasha’s response was immediate. “Because he’d be worried.” Kaylie’s giggles trailed behind her as she reached her desk, her lips curvi

    The sleek car pulled up in front of the company, its model sending shockwaves of excitement through the crowd. “Wow!” The collective gasp was followed by hands covering mouths, eyes glued to the vehicle as if mesmerized. As gazes drifted to the license plate, speculation ran rampant.Could it be her? Why would she arrive on such an enigmatic ride when Bryson and Chairman Paul opted for more understated models?“You can get out now, ma.” Richard said, his voice a gentle prompt. The plan had been to turn heads, and with attention firmly fixed on her, Natasha stepped forward, her timing perfectly choreographed.With a slight bow, she opened the door, greeting, “Welcome, ma.” Kaylie grabbed her bag, took a soft breath, and stepped out, her heel touching the ground precisely. For a moment, she paused, then descended, her movements fluid. Natasha stepped aside, allowing Kaylie to lead the way before closing the door and falling into step behind her, bag in hand, her gaze cast downward.

    “Rule number one, take care of yourself,”“Two, if anything goes wrong, call me,”“And then there’s the third rule, the most crucial one. Show them you’re a force not to be reckoned with.”Kaylie smiled to herself as she recalled Gage’s instructions. Despite his objections, the chairman had insisted she return to work today, and Gage had reluctantly agreed to let her go. Gage wanted her to dress elegantly for the office, but she had other plans and thanks to Natasha, she was now dressed in a casual yet stylish outfit - a crisp white blouse paired with fitted green trousers and a pair of heels that would make her presence known without drawing too much attention.As she stepped out, a delicate necklace with intertwined G and K pendants caught the light, a customized gift from Gage that added a touch of sophistication to her outfit. In her hand, she carried a sleek rectangular handbag, a gift from Richard. With Natasha having taken care of her notebook and laptop, she was free to walk

    Elizabeth nodded, her face still cast downward in embarrassment, and she turned slightly toward Kaylie, her voice barely above a whisper. “Thank you, ma... I’ll never forget this kindness. I’ll be forever grateful for your generosity,” her voice cracked as tears welled up in her eyes again. “I’ll do everything in my power to repay this favor if ever needed.”A warm smile spread across Kaylie’s lips as she enveloped Elizabeth in a gentle hug. “You don’t owe me anything,” she said softly. “But if you insist on repaying me, then focus on your studies. I want to see you graduate with flying colors. That’s the only payment I want.”Elizabeth sniffled. She took a step back and nodded reassuringly. “I promise,” she vowed, her voice filled with determination. “I won’t let you down, ma. I’ll graduate as the best student, the overall best student at the university. I promise.”Gage cleared his throat, drawing their attention. “Don’t I deserve a hug, too?” He asked, a hint of amusement in his vo
