(Vivienne)"So is the little miss here for some work or is she stalking me?"Mauricio said with a smug plastered on his face. The man was trying hard to be in my good books but the fact that he was Victor's rival put him at a disadvantage"No...if you excuse me I have a friend to see" I said faking a smile and was about to walk past him when he grabbed my arm and pulled me back "excuse me" I shot him a warning glare and he chuckled nervously and removed his hand from mine"My apologies but I just wanted to invite you out for lunch...you intrigue me every time I see you, "Mauricio said, still smiling at me. I disliked his friendliness. "No...look here, Mauricio...I'm not interested...I have a man already so it won't work"I told him straight without giving anything away. I didn't have to entertain him for so long because he was starting to take advantage and think I obliged his advances"So Victor is the one you want... Vivie, why do you want to involve yourself with such a man?" he sai

"Leo...thanks for the ride, but…" Cassy said with hesitation. Leo had been nothing but kind to her just like before, it seemed his kind nature hadn't changed one bit...she appreciated that more than anything. He defended her when it was needed, but he had to know this wasn't before. As much as she was happy, he was willing to be the agency model. He didn't have to do it because of her"Won't you let me in...for coffee?" he said showing his billion-dollar smile making Casey even more uncomfortable. He dropped her off at the hotel where she was staying, and she was avoiding letting him in. "No...well, Leo, I'm too exhausted now...it's late and I…" it was hard to give a valid excuse to keep him away. She asked her babysitter to stay for a few hours more before she got back, but now it was nearly 8 PM which was overtime"I know but just coffee, and I'll be out...let's chat and catch up"Leo still insisted. He didn't even let her say anything when he dragged her away from the parking area

"Mavi, tell me she's alright...how...how did this happen?"Alexis panicked as she came running. Maverick was fast enough to stop her from crashing into anything. It was rare to see her so worked up but what had happened earlier had left everyone shaken. Vivienne was in critical condition and Victor was doing everything possible to save her life"She suffered a lot of burns and inhaled too much smoke...I'm afraid…"Maverick said hesitantly as he scratched the back of his head awkwardly knowing full well things had turned out bad"What's it...is it bad...tell me nothing should happen to Vivie"Alexis couldn't take it anymore as tears flooded her face. The thought of Vivienne getting hurt was something she couldn't stand. Who knew what happened so suddenly. How did her apartment catch fire when she recalled talking to Vivienne? She was happy having Skylar's sleepover. Both talked over the phone for a while and she knew how her friend was happy. Vivienne was always careful. "She suffered fr

Leo's eyes were glued to the reports in his hands. This was something else. How did this happen? Yes he spent a night with Cassy that he recalled but the two never spoke about itHe wanted to talk to her about what happened between them but she was avoiding him. He thought she regretted the night they spent together with how she was acting as if nothing happened"Leo, you know what to do...I know you love Monica but...it's a child we are talking about"Vivienne's voice brought him back from his trail of thoughts as his eyes shifted to her. When Cassy came back to London Vivie was the first to see her; later he was informed by his manager that he saw Cassy with a little boy and he was her son. Of course, Leo didn't believe any of it until Vivie said the same thing to her. When did Cassy have a child? Did she get back to her ex-boyfriend? He knew she had a boyfriend but they broke up. He did a little digging but unfortunately, he found out Blake, Cassy's ex, was already married. He had t

Monica's world came crashing down as she feasted her eyes on the DNA results in her hands. This wasn't happening. This isn't what she hoped things would turn out. "No...this can't be...sobs...sobs...this is a lie...no!"Monica shouted, throwing the papers away as tears rained down her face... "Skylar is my sister's child, not that girl's child…"Monica said furiously as she wiped her tears with the back of her hand. Martha smirked as she leaned back to her chair and fixed her eyes on Monica weeping hysterically"Of course...she deceived everyone... Moni, what did you expect from a girl like her?"Martha said bitterly..her eyes sharp as a blade that could pierce through anything. Monica was shattered, she never knew everything would turn out like this. Skylar was the only one keeping her sane knowing her sister left without a word."She saw a wealthy man like Victor... depressed and without a wife...she did this to trap Vic" Martha added with a hand slam on the desk such that the deafeni
