Aiden checked on his phone to see the time and it was only two hours left for the auction to start. He sighed tears brimming in his eyes."We will lose it all in just two hours," he said looking at the seat next to him only to find it empty.'Huh, I thought she was sitting right here,'" Mel?" he call but there was no response."Did I zone out for that long that she went upstairs or something?" he asked himself getting off the couch and stretching his limbs.He started by checking the kitchen to see if she was having a snack but she wasn't there," She's probably sleeping, let me not disturb her or else she will lash out on me,"He went back into the living room and sat on the couch fixing his eyes on the TV again until he dozed off.An hour and half later, he woke up checked the time and only thirty minutes was left for the auction.Wanting someone to talk to about the incoming trouble, Aiden decided to go upstairs to c

Everyone turned their heads towards the source of the voice and Kaden couldn't help but scowl at the man that stood there. It was non other than Mr Templeton, the man who abandoned them when their company started going down. "What is he doing?" Brandon asked anger in his voice, it seems he was just as upset to see the man as Kaden was. " I'm wondering the same thing," Kaden responded looking at the man. "Thank you for your attention, first of all I would like to congratulate my old time friends the Leightons, for standing together as a family and bringing their enemies down," "Friends?" Kaden scoffed, " Since when did this man become our friend? As far as I know, he abandoned us at our toughest moments instead of lending a helping hand, and now that we have gotten everything back, he has now turned into our friend?" He ranted lowly such that only the people around their table could hear. " I know right, I'm pretty sure he was even work

"You are all just so foolish!" The mysterious lady yelled, landing a punch on Anderson's face who only lowered his head not meeting her eyes, Where Mandy stood, she flinched giving her brother a pitiful look while inwardly cursing Melissa. "I gave you one simple task one! and that was to trap the girl in a murder case and guess what you did! You freaking went and told her everything about us!" She took a baseball bat and hit him on the side but Anderson still didn't say anything and calmly accepted the punishment like a dog. " You animal! How dare you ruin what we worked so hard to plan!" The mysterious lady continued hitting him and Mandy just silently sobbed fearing for her brother, "Calm down dear, hitting him won't solve anything," a man stepped towards the mysterious lady and took the bat from her. "Don't freaking tell me to calm down okay! Everythi

"Hey why are you suddenly crying? Don't you like it?" Veronica asked with concern kneeling next to her and checking to see what's wrong. " Look at me! I am fat like a cow, this won't fit me," she threw the swimsuit across the room and her mother in law giggled but covered it up with a coughs. "Sorry something entered my throat hmm," she cleared her throat. Sammy equally stifled in her laughter, knelt down next to her and wiped her tears saying, " you are not as fat as a cow Mel," her voice was laced with amusement, "  all I see is a pretty woman who will soon give birth to a precious gift. You shouldn't be feeling self couscous about this okay because it's normal I mean look at me for example, I only gave birth a month ago and my baby bump still hasn't gone down but I've learnt that if I focus on the negative, then I will only end up being depressed but if I focus on loving myself for being me and for being a hero w

Kaden led her towards the table that held a beautifully decorated three layed cake and Melissa almost drool at the delicious goody but she controlled herself and the hunger that she was feeling.Just a few more minutes she silently told herself looking anywhere else but the cake. "This small party is all about how much of a special person you are to us and each gift everyone will give you will represent a word that describes you okay," Kaden explained. He kissed her forehead and she smiled at him handing him the bouquet for safe keeping. Brandon was the first to step forward and stretched out a beautiful looking box full of different types of expensive chocolates towards her,Looking at the chocolate, Melissa  grinned widely taking the box from him. She wanted to open it and take a bite right then and there but stopped herself so as not to embarrass herself in front of everyon
