Connor made way for his office and he couldn't help but be proud of Scott because of how he handled the company in his absence. There wasn't any loss of any sort and instead, the company rose in stocks. Scott Rogers came inside the company with his head ducked while folding his hands behind his back as he fiddled with his fingers. Connor's eyes traveled from his face to his shirt that was unbuttoned and as much as Connor was proud of him, he couldn't help but lash out at him for being so oblivious to the fact that a button was missing.Connor swirled slowly in his swivel chair before making the chair come to an abrupt stop. Connor stood from his chair and sauntered toward Scott Rogers who quivered in fear. He placed his hands on his shoulder, patting him slowly on the shoulder."I am curious about something. Is it because I left the company in your care and that made you think that you are the new boss?" Connor said in an eerily calm tone that sent shivers down one's spine.Connor's

The bomb blast was still a mystery to Connor as he stood at a distance watching how the remains of Liliana were lowered six feets under the ground. His throat suddenly went dry and that was because of the guilt that he felt inside of him.Different voices kept screaming in his head that he was the reason for her death because if he hadn't gotten her arrested, then she would have been alive till this day. It was such a miracle that he was there to witness her burial because her father dared to end his life if he ever spots Connor.However, after much pleading from Connor's parents and Connor trying to justify why he got Liliana arrested, he was finally allowed to witness her burial and that was on the condition that he must watch her being laid down from a distance. Carolina came in the company of Roseanne who held an umbrella for her and she stopped on her track when she caught sight of Connor who stood rigid on the same spot. She brushed her hands through her neck and motioned for R

Carolina bit on the corner of her lower lips as she swallowed the heavy lump that formed in her throat. The same venom and coldness in his eyes that were evident on the day she had encountered him were still in his eyes. She suddenly felt cold air gushing through her skin and that was due to the cause of the cold aura that he exuded.Connor's father averted his gaze from Carolina and fixed his gaze on Connor."Isn't this the lady that I told you to send out of your house? Don't tell me that you later kept this lady by your side. Didn't you take my words seriously when I told you that you shouldn't keep an outsider by your side" Connor's dad yelled at him.Carolina was surprised as her mouth was slightly agape, wondering what was happening at the moment. She kind of wondered why Connor didn't tell her that his father disapproved of Connor keeping her by his side. Assuming she had known about his father's stance on her, she would have made sure that she met with Connor's father and told

"Mirabel?" Connor repeated as he stared intently at her. She smiled back in return and stretched her hand forward for a handshake. Carolina saw the way Connor's face lightened up on seeing her, causing her to wonder who Mirabel was.The lady whom Connor had addressed as Mirabel had long dark hair that fell on her back. Everything about her screamed class and with the way her simple outfits accentuated her curves, someone would know that she was drowned in luxury. "Yes, Mirabel" Connor and Mirabel both exchanged a handshake while Connor's eyes lit up as if he had seen a unicorn as he laughed awkwardly.Carolina raised a brow, wondering what was funny for him to laugh like that because if she could remember vividly, nobody talked about anything funny so why was he laughing like that?All of a sudden, it dawned on Connor that Mirabel shared a striking resemblance to the lady that he met at the hotel when he went on a business trip and she also shared a striking resemblance to the woman

Carolina cringed at his statement as he buried his head on her shoulder and kissed her slowly on the neck. “You love me?” Carolina muttered, causing Connor to raise his head as a bright smile formed on his face. He was glad that he was finally able to confess that he loved her and every part of him ached to tell her about how he felt about her.Down to her hair, the way she smiles, and the way she talks except for when she talks to him rudely, he wanted to confess his feelings to her and let her know how he felt about her. He wanted his confession to hold more meaning and depth and not just the three words “I love you.”“Yes, I do. More than you can ever imagine. I love you and every part of you because literally, you are the reason why I can experience what it felt like to be in love with someone after a long period” Connor slurred as he pressed his lips against her neck.He placed his lips on hers but she quickly broke the kiss while she tilted her head slowly, lowering her head be
