“Why ain't you happy? Rachel is carrying our grandchild,that is great news?”Mrs Reyes asked her husband to break the long silence. Mr Reyes looked at her and did not say anything. “Harry has to get engaged to her and probably get married before her baby bump starts showing,” Mr Reyes said. “You did not see our sins reaction and yet you want to get him to marry? Are you just heartless or you don't want to see the truth that Harry does not want to get engaged to Rachel, I understand that you are concerned about our reputation as a family but let me tell you that it I don't care about that am only concerned about my son's happiness,” Mrs Reyes yelled at her husband.Mr Reyes slapped her in the cheek. She did not expect that he could ever hurt her. The chauffeur looked at the view mirror and was caught by surprise. He also did not expect it. He decided to mind his own business and drive in silence to the mansion. Mrs Reyes came out of the car in a hurry and ordered the servant who opene

“I hope you will gather the courage to make sure that the plan goes accordingly and why not? were vented on tormenting me. I know you got this and I believe that you will help me,”Harry told Tamara.She looked at him and her heart skipped a bit. No one had ever said that they believed in her after her parents died. No one believed that she was innocent of the crime that Tom had accused her of and she had to pay a fine for it. She remembered the incident vividly as if it were yesterday. After her parents death, she had to spend a month in the hospital because she had a fractured leg and a broken hand. Brighton did not visit her in hospital when she was in the state while Alicia came to see her just twice. She had placed her hope on her uncle but she was in for a rude shock.When her uncle Tom came to visit her, he had an envelope in his hand. He gave it to her and she took it only to find out that her uncle was suing her for embezzlement of company funds. She was to be summoned in cou

Tim and Alicia had dated for the longest time. They started their relationship in the seventh grade and started dating when they were in highschool. Alicia could sneak out of class and rush to the mens changing room so that she could have time with Tim. They finished highschool and they went to different colleges. Alicia followed her passion which was writing and Tim took up painting. They still found time to see each other even if they were miles away. They were done with college and decided to live with each other. Life was not easy for the both of them because Alicia had not yet gotten a publisher who would accept her book and Tim had no job yet. They lived off Tamara's help. Tamarq was her best friend and she could not see her suffer and also Alicia was from a wealthy family so she got their support as well before Tim got a job. Alicia was happy when her best friend told her that she had found love because Alicia knew that Tamara hated to be in love as she said that would tie he

Mr Reyes' words lingered in Tamara's mind and made her heart race. She tried to catch her breath but it was difficult. She had no choice but to go to the kitchen and have a glass of water to calm her nerves. “You are mistaken if you think you can be a Reyes,”those are the words that criss crossed her mind. She went to the couch and threw a comfy throw blanket over herself. She regretted going to the mansion now because of her actions, she was insulted.“My father has never disrespected me in that manner. Who does he think he is?”Tamara asked herself furiously. “I now understand why Harry is doing what he is it is all because of his father,”The mention of Harry caused shivers down her spine. “He is arrogant and at the same time he is sweet and caring, why does he have to be so arrogant at times it makes him look unattractive. Speaking of attraction, he is attractive and handsome. I can now see why Rachel doesn't want to let go of him. Why am I even thinking of him? Am I mad or just…..

When she arrived at the entrance of the company, she was shocked. It did not occur to her that she was working for the same people. She saw the name Reyes on the building. She started breathing heavily and did not find her balance. She felt weak. She decided to have a seat at the front desk. “May I help you madam? Ooooh I notice you,you work at the design apartment, what is wrong,”one of the receptionists asked. Tamara lifted her head only to see that the receptionist who was kind to her on the first day that she came in the company was offering her help. “Could you assist me with some water please,”Tamara asked. The kind receptionist went behind her desk and came back with bottled water. She led it to Tamara. “I hope you get well soon,”She said and left. Tamara wondered what was wrong with her and why did the Reyes name trigger her so much. Mr Reyes words now rang hard in her mind and caused her to have a headache. The headache was bearable so she went and thanked the receptionist
