worried

The same morning, Theo received a call from Neel about the plagiarism case against Fragrance which is directly aimed at Nina. "I know about this. I am planning to attend the hearing with Nina today" Theo replied. Theo walked downstairs to the dining area where he found Nina who was looking at her mobile with a deep frown. He kissed her cheek before he sat beside her on the table. Nina was startled and she looked at him with red cheeks. "What are you looking at? By how deep your frown is, it doesn't look good" he asked curiously. Nina sighed and turned her mobile screen towards Theo. "This Nova Fisher turned out to be a leech and a snake. His company stole my incense formulas and they released perfumes a day before Fragrance. As if it's not enough, his filed a complaint against Fragrance for Plagiarism. Now we have to attend the initial hearing of this case. I don't know how to prove that those formulas were mine and they are the culprits here" she confessed with anger. Theo c

Provocations

In the initial hearing venue, as soon as Nina and Theo stepped out of their car, they were surrounded by the reporters who were eager to hear what Nina had to say about this case. 'Mrs Morrison, you rose to success faster than anyone would have expected. Is that because all of your works are not genuine?' One of the reporters asked Nina, trying to get a raise out of her. Nina became very angry. Nina respects her work and she is very proud of her talent which was inherited from her mother. She would have snapped at the reporter for asking unethical and baseless questions like this, but Theo stopped her by tightly holding her arm. He didn't stop, he was escorting her towards the entrance with a blank look. 'Mrs Morrison, are the Plagiarism claims true?' 'Mrs Morrison, it is said that your husband is supporting you in your career, is that true?' 'Mrs Morrison, there were rumours about your conflict with the Fisher's. Is this case a retribution from them?' Questions of all kinds are

First hearing

"Let's begin" the jury announce. One of the three jury members was a Famous perfumer a few years ago before he retired. One of them is well versed in Plagiarism laws, and the other is an expert in the corporate laws. As if on queue, Nova's lawyer stood up and adjusted his suit jacket and gave his opponents a arrogant look. "Respected Jury, the Fragrance company has stolen my clients formulas and they released perfumes based on those formulas. We demand an immediate recall of all the products they delivered to their retailer using our formulas and a compensation of hundred million for the Fisher's group" Nova's lawyer put forth his argument. The jury motioned for Jeremiah to take over. Unlike Nova's lawer, Jeremiah was humble. "Good morning dear jury, it's an honor to work in your presence today." the jury gave him a nod of acknowledgement. They looked impressed. "Coming back to the case, the opponent lawyer is concluding that my clients company stole their formulas. But nothin

Misleading

"Please forgive my brashness Respected Jury. But may I know why you decided that those formulas belongs to Mrs. Morrison and not my client?" Yunnis requested in a much tamer tone than before. The jury doesn't feel like they should explain their reasons behind their judgement after the way Yunnis spoke with them. But that would only make the Fisher's side look like the jury is being partial towards the other side. So they decided to explain. "Every perfume has more than one ingredient added to it to reach the final smell of that particular perfume. Miss Macy successfully wrote down the formulas like every other perfumer would if they smell any perfume. But she failed to recognise the key ingredients in each perfume which gave the edge to that perfume when compared with the other perfumes in the market. Like for example, one of the perfumes had wild lilies used as one their main ingredient. While Miss Macy guessed the lilies part, she failed to recognise that the Fragrance of green ho

Who can prove it?

"It's you who tried to defame me, or more precisely Fragrance. This is all on you. Why are you blaming them?" Nina demanded coldly. Nova gave her a smile. He is not made at her. He can never be. She is his sweetheart, and she is going to be his sweet revenge against Theodore Morrison. The ever loving prince-charming for as long as he remembered. "Nina, so what if I am behind all this? But my intention was never to hurt you. You are my sweetheart. How can I hurt you?" Nova spoke rather flirtatiously, which angered Theo to no end. He glared at Nova. "You are as disgusting as the scum under my shoes. I would have knocked out your teeth if we were not standing inside here" Theo snapped at Nova. Nova smirked at Theo. The jury just left, but this place is still safe for him to mess with Theo. Here, Theo cannot hurt him out of respect for the jury. "Relax Theo, don't be so upset. When I marry Nina, I will try to find another beautiful girl for you. But I cannot promise that she will be

Hidden past

After the Jury declared their final verdict, the Fragrance company won ten million in compensation. As they are under the process of expansion, they are in dire need of money, which Nina and Ella refused to take from anyone else, not even Theo. And the Morrison heir respected their decision and never broached that subject again. So now, Ella would have been jumping with the joy if she was normal. But despite gaining so much money unexpectedly, there is no trace of happiness in Ella's eyes. She is too quiet. Jeremiah, Ella and Noah are travelling with Theo and Nina in the same car. Ella was sitting in the back beside Jeremiah who is in the middle. Liam was sitting on the other side. Theo is driving while Nina sat beside him in the passenger seat. Theo noticed Liam taking glances at Ella more than once, which spiked his curiosity. While Nina turned to look at Ella more than once. She is worried about Ella. "What happened to Ella today? We won the pathetic case that Nova has fil

Comfort

Liam is not understanding why Ella seems to look devastated. She was not herself this morning. And she ran outside suddenly from the moment she saw that kid. 'What is bothering her so much that she is crying like this? Is she worried that she might get pregnant from last night? Is seeing that kid triggered that fear?' he thought to himself. Whatever happened last night, he did not think that it would end this way. After a while, when she stopped crying, but was still looking lost, he decided to apologise and assure her. "Ella, i am extremely sorry for what happened last night. I promise you, I will be responsible for you. I will not leave you to deal with the aftermath. Please, don't cry. I just can't see you like this" he spoke as gently as he could. She smiled sadly and pulled away from his embrace, as if realising where she was. She wiped away her tears with the back of her hand. "Don't worry about it. You are not entirely responsible for what happened. You didn't force me.

I want to meet her

Ella was quiet after Nina spoke. Nina parked their car in front of a cafe. "I will bring us something to eat" Nina spoke up before exiting the car. Nina is giving Ella time to think and come to terms with what happened in the last twenty four hours. After Nina left, Ella's mind went to the time when she first met Vincent. He was gentle and charming. He charmed her in no time. He used to know when she needed something and what she needed. As Ella was an orphan, Vincent's mother and his family didn't accept her. But he didn't listen to them. Only Vincent's father gave his blessings to their union. They got married in a Civil affairs bureau and started their married life. Everything was fine for the first two years. She used to think that she was the luckiest woman in the world who got a husband like him. Then, Vincent got busy with his work and rarely at home. He used to spend most of his time in the company. Ella used to feel that they both are becoming distant. That's when Vincen

Facts and Faces

Heather Smith was the ex secretary of the Late Vincent. She worked for him for over four years. She was just a newbie when she joined the Vincent group. Within one year she was promoted as the secretary of the boss recognising her hard work. Then, she started working for him just when he got married. Initially their relationship was purely professional. Slowly it developed into friendship and then one night it turned into companionship. Neither of them thought that it would turn that way. But it happened. And neither Heather who was single at that time not Vincent who was married thought about what they were doing to Ella. After all, Ella was the legal wife of Vincent who married her going against everyone in his family. But his love didn't last long. It shifted from Ella to Heather within a couple of years. Heather looked at her one and a half year old son who is now sleeping peacefully in his crib. When her boyfriend suggested that they should go out for lunch, she agreed without

Betrayed

Ella gasped and covered her mouth with shock. "So all the while when I was being given mind numbing work which used to drain the energy out of me, it was my dear husband who did it to avoid me?" she spoke with bitterness. The love she held for her husband is slowly transforming into anger. Heather looked at her open palms and nodded her head. When Vincent was avoiding his wife, she used to feel so happy that he was prioritising her over his wife. So she never contradicted him. "You know Nina, Everyone used to dump something or other near my desk and demand that I should finish it. I used to think that they were helping me to learn faster, so I never complained. They might have thought that I was a fool" Ella shared with Nina with tears brimming in her eyes. Nina wrapped her arm around Ella to comfort her. What more can she do? If that Vincent was still alive, she would have killed him herself. But he is not. So she can only help her friend to recover from this bitter reality of h
