Anita was sitting on the bed in the room while Alexander was getting dressed for Sylvia's convocation.Anita wished she could go since Sylvia had personally invited her. But then the Scott family would definitely be there, and she did not want to mingle with them; it's not like they wanted her there too.But then there was another problem: Austin was busy throwing a tantrum and insisting he wanted to attend Sylvia's convocation."But Mom, why can't I go?" Austin asked, tugging at her."You won't understand, my dear." She said, pulling him to herself and kissing his hair.It's not like she wanted to deny him going, but then how could she let him go when everyone in the Scott family could recognize him even without a DNA test? She was not ready to lose her child to them. She held him tighter to her chest."We should let the child go; he really wants to. We can let him wear glasses; that way, they won't recognize him." Alexander suggested, seeing how much his son wanted to be at the conv

It was Monday morning, and Alexander decided he would be taking Austin to school. After he had been prepared for school by Ava, he took him to the car. He opened the car door for him and got in beside him.Alex was about to drive out of the house when he saw Anita walking out of the house and walking towards her car. Alex immediately got out of the car and rushed towards her. "Where are you going?" He demanded. "I have an appointment at the hospital today." She said, softly. "You don't have to go on your own; why not come in so that I can drive you to the hospital after taking Austin to school?" Alex asked, taking her hand. Anita carefully withdrew her hand from him. "No, that won't be necessary; I can take care of myself; you can go ahead." "Are you sure?" Alex asked, and she nodded. He carefully

It was Saturday afternoon, and Anita, Angie, and Lauren decided to have their girls' time. They were doing their manicures and pedicures at a saloon and discussing happily when Sandra and Bridget walked in. Sandra looked around the saloon, then her eyes finally landed on Anita. She let out a smirk and walked towards them. Her investigator had sent her the location earlier that day. "Hello, sister." She said, with a forged sweet voice, but Anita pretended not to hear her as she continued talking to her friends, which made Sandra roll her eyes. "Don't tell me you are still bitter about me, Anita; we are still sisters no matter what. I mean, it's not my fault that you slept with an escort five years ago and were sent out of the house," Sandra said, looking closely at Anita's face.Anita swallowed hard and clenched her fist, hearing her bothered words. Angie and Lauren both exchanged looks, wondering what was up with S

Sylvia was over the moon that night, as she kept replaying the scene that happened earlier than in her mind. She could not believe that she was able to take that courageous step. She didn't know if he felt the same way for her, but at least she was able to confess her feelings to him, and the thought of that got her elated. She sat on her bed, grinning from ear to ear; in fact, she had been all smiles all through that evening, and the whole family even wondered what was up with her. She finally decided to call Anita and ask for advice from her. "Hello, sister-in-law, I really need your help with something." She said, the moment Anita answered the phone, "Are you okay?" Anita asked, sitting up, seeing how nervous Sylvia sounded. "I am okay; I just need your advice about something very serious; it's actually about a boy." Anita's lips curled up. "

Alexander was sitting in his office, working on some documents, his mind drifting to several places.He had been avoiding his grandmother for a while now; he stopped picking up her calls and even avoided going to the old mansion because whenever she saw him or whenever they got to talk, she would not hesitate to start telling him about the bride she had picked for him. She even kept insisting he go on a date with her, which Alex did not like at all.Soon his phone started ringing. He pulled open the drawer to peek at the phone, and just like he had guessed, it was his grandmother calling. As usual, Alex pushed the drawer close without moving an inch to answer the phone.He was certain that she was still calling to remind him to go on a date with the woman she had picked for him without his consent.He faced his laptop and continued his work. He started checking on the recent activity in the financial department, and he started nodding his head as he scrolled through. Lewis had really
