For a moment she didn’t know where the voice was actually coming from or if Nathan actually came all the way to America but after looking around for a while, her mood dampened the more, he was nowhere in sight.“I thought I heard his voice?” She asked and heaved a sigh.That was the moment Mrs Hernandez sauntered into the room looking all serious,“Can I speak with you and your team, Melisa?” She inquired and the model nodded before gesturing for her team to go out and that was when Louisa turned to Audrey.“You will be the last to go on stage, the formation has been changed” and like that she walked out of the room.“Why? Did something happen?”“Uhmmm” Bruno didn’t know how to say it, “it's the big boss orders”“Aren’t you even going to ask who you are in the room with?” Another familiar voice filtered into her ears again and Audrey briskly turned to see Nathan standing by a door she didn’t notice was even there.As swift as lightning, she quickly rushed towards him and pounced into

“Breaking news” the newscaster’s voice resonated round the room while Audrey stopped to hear what she had to say. It was already past eight in the morning and she could see how the workers were going about trying to set breakfast while Mrs Hernandez was talking to someone on the phone so loudly.This was the first time the big boss came home after a long time and even if no one was allowed to see him, his aura was still remarkably strong around the house. Everyone was walking on eggshells around him.“The oriental exhibition held by the Avanti clothing brand has superseded all the previous exhibitions that have been held by the company and other companies. The exhibition which was pushed a few days forward after Dior has made a lot of progress just in a day and seeing from the statistics, the stocks of Avanti had risen to a very high level. The orinetal trend was the best yet and Avanti has made a solid name in the Asian market while still serving its purpose” the newscaster paused f

A soft knock on the door made Audrey turn her attention to it and was surprised to see Nathan standing by the door and looking all sad and upset. The more she thought about him, the more her heart broke. This was not how she wanted everything to turn out, her conscience would not even let her breathe.“You can come in” she finally answered as she stopped folding her clothes.“I'd rather stay here” he replied from the door as he leaned on the frame, “trying to pack up?”“Just say what you want to say Nathan, no need asking if I am packing or not” Audrey paused for a while, “you and i know you are not here to ask if I have done that” she added.The room went silent, the two of them were struggling to communicate and it was getting hard. The more he was silent, the more Audrey felt dirty.“I am sorry” he finally said after a while.“What?” She could not believe her ears, Audrey was not expecting him to answer like that. It made her feel more worse“Why are you even sorry Nathan? It’s not

A certain woman was sprawled on the floor, a bottle of vodka lying beside her while blood was trickling down a little wound on her leg, she was unconscious and loud music was blaring from unseen stereos.“Bitch” a scrawny looking man called as he walked up to the limp woman on the floor, “you better stand up” he added as he kicked her before picking up the vodka bottle and gulping the remaining content into his mouth before kicking the woman again.She slowly opened her eyes and a little groan escaped her lips.“You are finally awake, huh?” The scrawny man growled again as he yanked her up, “I thought you were dead” his lips curled into a mocking laugh and he smashed the bottle on the floor,“Why don’t you go out there and get some money? You have been home all day and it’s getting annoying to see your face” he sneered again and pushed her off before walking away.Vanessa fell on the floor as hard tears rolled out of her eyes, this was not what she planned. This was not how she though

Audrey was left speechless again, not only did the mother turn her back on her but Nathan too was about to punish her for a crime she never thought of committing. She knew she was wrong but getting punished like this was not the way out right?A lot was going on in her head as she saw Nathan walk back to his sofa before throwing himself on it. She could see anger and frustration written all over his face and her heart broke again. Audrey knew she had told a lie that could damage someone but in this case, the lie was to help him. How did she go from being the savior to the villain?“You are not thinking about this in a rational way Nathan, you were depressed and was at the verge of losing your life. I was only trying to help, I just wanted to make amends for what my sister did.“You don’t have to explain yourself to me, my mum already told me everything” the angry man paused for a while, “you are nothing but a lying bitch and I hate you Audrey, I hate you so much and I promise you, I
