Lara sashayed into the restaurant she’d picked for her meeting with Benjamin, with purposeful strides, hoping to finally get this meeting over with and get their plans in action. But a wave of disappointment hit her when her gaze traveled through the large room to see Benjamin wasn’t there. A deep frown marred her face as she glanced at the gold wristwatch adorning her wrist. It was exactly noon, the time they’d fixed for the meeting and she expected him to have been there expecting her arrival but he was nowhere to be found. She glanced around again and contemplated leaving but she knew she had to get this meeting over with and would be very busy in the coming weeks with plans for her fashion show. Still frowning, she found an empty booth at a far corner of the room, beside a window overlooking the street outside. It’d give them the privacy they needed. Hence, she moved toward it and settled into one of the seats. A waiter approached her to take her order and she asked for a cocktai

“Good morning, Gretchen,” Amelia greeted in a cheerful voice, striding into the kitchen with a smile on her face. As soon as Gretchen saw her, a warm smile bloomed on her face and she turned away from the cooker to face Amelia who was at the coffee machine, preparing two mugs of coffee.“It’s good to see you again,” Gretchen said, still smiling.It had almost been a week since she’d seen Amelia. Although she worked in the house every day and was always around until the evenings, she hadn’t set eyes on the younger woman. Since the news of her relation to the well-known Chinese businessman, Amelia had been spending all of her days in her room, deep in her gloom and refusing to see anyone.Gretchen could understand her plight and she felt terrible for her. The young woman had been through a lot since she relocated to New York but seeing her looking so cheerful with that big beautiful smile on her face warmed her heart. She was glad that Amelia was gradually returning to her old happy sel

It’s been almost two months since Liu Feng-Zhang released the press release that changed the public’s view of Amelia. The news had finally died down and the paparazzi that had been lurking around Ryan’s home waiting to catch a glimpse of her to get more information out of her had gradually dissolved. Amelia was finally ready to return to her normal life and the first thing she wanted to do was to resume at her new place of work. Despite realizing that she would be working for Jian, her step-brother, she wasn’t phased. After all, he was the only employer that had bothered to interview her for a job, after the countless ones she applied to. She wasn’t going to give it up because of a minor issue. She was also aware that it could bring up new rumors that she’d gotten a job at her family’s company but she didn’t mind. Worse things had been said about her in the past and she was beginning to realize that as long as she was already in the limelight, it was always going to be that way and a

Amelia was ecstatic that evening as she returned home from work. She couldn’t wait to share the good news with Ryan. It felt so good knowing she now had siblings. For the first time in her life, the feeling of being all alone has been eliminated. She was so glad that she and Lara had reconciled and her new siblings weren’t against her decision to not accept their father. They understood her feelings and she appreciated that.The moment Ryan stepped into the house, he noticed her radiant smile and it made him smile too. Smith had brought her home earlier because he was still in a meeting by the time she closed from work and he’d missed her dearly.“Hey baby,” he wrapped his arms around her waist, kissing her neck.Amelia was in the kitchen, preparing dinner. She was so excited that she’d given Gretchen a day off and the woman had decided to spend it in the company of Dora. They’d both gone out for ice cream, leaving Amelia to be alone.“Hi,” Amelia responded cheerfully, as she stirred

Amelia and Ryan’s wedding preparations have spun off after the family dinner where they revealed the date to the family. Everything had been moving fast since then and there were just two weeks left before the day. Amelia was giddy with nerves and excitement as she couldn’t wait to finally tie the knot with Ryan, the man of her dreams. Ryan had offered to hire a wedding planner to take care of the event, down to her wedding dress but she’d refused as she wanted to be the planner. She didn’t want anything extravagant and she knew a planner would do just that because Ryan would pay heavily for it and her opinions wouldn’t matter.It was the weekend and she was out with Sylvia, and Lara to buy her wedding dress from one of New York’s popular designers. Amelia had previously scheduled an appointment with the designer before arriving at the large store.As soon as she arrived with Sylvia and Lara, the woman, Mrs Gina Campbell, who had been discussing with one of her sales personnel immedia
