Thankfully Mary Jane Davis was available and willing to rejoin her old work at Accord Bioscience. Sienna immediately summoned her to the office and then started thinking how she would throw Bettie Kingston out without causing a headache. She summoned her immediately to ask for an update on the meeting that she had called. It’s supposed to start in the next fifteen minutes and she had no update on what was going on!Bettie Kingston grimaced and walked towards her new boss's office. She hated this job now that Roman wasn’t there. With him, it was less work and more fun as he was a passionate and demanding man always ready to do the dirty deed! If he hadn’t requested her to stay back and report everything that Sienna Hensley did, she would have resigned already. The moment she entered the office, Sienna asked her about the meeting. “H

Lucas wasted no time after gaining custody of his daughter. He took the first available flight after completing all the formalities. When they reached New York, it was well past dinnertime. Lucas took Alexia straight to his granny’s house. Everyone was overwhelmed to see her after so many years. Alexia in fact looked the happiest. Lucas spent the night with her in his old, childhood room. The next day was a Saturday and Sienna rushed to her office. She had summoned James Price to discuss Roman’s documents as well as the company’s financial conditions. It had been a very busy week for her but she knew she had to figure this out on her own. She sat sipping coffee and flicked through the newspaper while waiting for James Price. It was then that her glance fell upon an article in the gossip column. A picture of Lucas hugging a little girl caught her eye. Lucas looked so happy as if he h

Sienna couldn’t concentrate on anything for the rest of the day. Lucas’s expression, his words, his kiss, his hot body, everything kept on floating in her head and she simply gave up working and lay back on the sofa, closing her eyes. Along with his thoughts came back the hurt that she had gone through. No, she wouldn’t give in. She wouldn’t be his wh*re. Surely she had misheard his declaration of love. How could someone so famous, so handsome and so much beyond her league, love her, a simple nurse?The next day she had a meeting and consultation with James Price as well as her Finance team. Getting ready, she dashed out of the house, locking the door securely. Just as she turned to go to the garage, her eyes popped out seeing Lucas climbing out of his car. What was he doing here so early in the morning? “What are you doing h

Before Lucas could ask for her forgiveness, their food arrived. The delicious aroma made her stomach grumble with hunger. “Looks delicious!” Said Sienna excitedly attacking the tuna melts first. Lucas watched her with interest as he ate his sliders.“Do you want a taste?” She asked excitedly. Lucas would have been aghast at the idea usually. He hated sharing at restaurants. It looked so cheap and low class! However, he was eager to share with Sienna. He had no idea why. “Sure, open up,” he said, feeding her some of his food. Sienna closed her eyes and chewed. A soft sigh of pleasure escaped her.“Even dad used to share it with me,” she pointed out.“Hmm, but I’m not your dad,” said Lucas with a small

The next whole week was very hectic for Sienna as she toiled hard at the office, coping with new situations, new problems, trying to follow the plans that have been chalked out, meeting, and discussing the course of action with the old department heads under whom the company flourished. It was a lot of hard work. Lucas came in briefly during the day, whenever he could take time off from his busy schedule. He traveled to Singapore on a short trip and Sienna missed him immensely the next weekend. The whole week she had tried her best to immerse herself in work but the nights seemed to eat her up. She just couldn’t sleep! Saturday too she had a meeting with James Price but after a whole day’s work when she returned home, she felt like bursting into tears. The walls felt like they were converging upon her and she felt lonely and depressed.After dinner, Sienna just prepared to go to bed with a heav
