June watched her sister stand up and walk away while others openly watched their interaction with pitiful looks.A bitter smile appeared on June’s lips and she left the place with Lucy trailing behind. The ride back to the hotel was silent and Lucy watched June’s mood worsen as time passed. It seemed like her boss was slipping into the dark corners of her life and she couldn’t allow that. Not on her watch! Lucy put on the brightest smile and tried to encourage June. “Who cares if we didn’t get the deal? Everyone with eyes could see that our design was better than what they chose!” Lucy held June’s hand. “It’s clear to everyone who deserved that win.”“Then why didn’t we get it?” June asked with her face straight ahead. “Why didn’t they pick our design? Why were we sidelined?” The bitterness, pain and anger she felt poured into her words. Lucy felt the sting of pain from her and tried to alleviate it. “It doesn’t matter. Don’t torment yourself thinking of those things.”No matter ho

The Lontoc family house was a shadow of itself. Due to the swift change in power, the number of house employees was reduced to three. The gateman, the housekeeper and the cook. They were all to serve him whenever he visited the house.April was reduced to nothing but a home occupant and as a result, she barely visited the house that was supposed to be her matrimonial home. However, after winning the contract, she decided to return to where it all started. The day was spent celebrating the win at the office but Colton was yet to congratulate her on the latest achievement. It hurt to know that her hard work in getting the biggest deal would go down the drain because her stupid ex-boyfriend decided to sell her company.Much more than ever, she wanted to have her company back. No matter the costs. On her way home, she decided to speak with Colton about Lontoc Constructions and sent a text asking to meet. Although he didn’t respond, she could tell he read it and she banked on the fact

June couldn’t rest after meeting with Liam Fernando. She stared at the paper he scribbled while waiting for the news on his identity. She instructed Lucy to carry out thorough research and an hour later, Lucy texted she was on her way to the office.“I think you need to see this yourself.” Lucy handed a file to June who eagerly took the paper, curious to know the man’s identity.“They say he is the king of North City! That man is no ordinary human. Where did you meet him again?” She asked while June busied herself with the news on Liam Fernando. Apparently, amongst over seven billion individuals on earth, she managed to offend a Multi-trillionaire with a conglomerate worth more than she could ever imagine. He had a net worth of eleven trillion dollars in assets only!He owned various businesses, companies, industries and stores all over North City.

"Fancy meeting you here, sister," April said with a mocking look in her eyes. "I didn't realise you still met up with your ex-mother-in-law." Beatrice recovered from her shock immediately. "What are you doing here?" She seethed. "I warned you against showing up here ever again. Are you trying to test me?" "Oh shut it, Mother." Clarence couldn't hold back. "No one wants to be in your old rickety property. Why would I want to visit such a place when I can be in my husband's home." Beatrice laughed in her face. "You have to be the biggest dreamer. I doubt you found a husband while pining after my son. You should get a life. It must be hard chasing after your late sister's husband." June was set to leave but for some reason, she remained in her spot, watching their hostile exchange of words. Nothing prepared her for the words that left Clarence's mouth.

Lucy, now a new house owner and Evelyn's neighbour, saw her off and promised to take care of her mother to the best of her ability. It was an emotional departure. June felt her anxiety build up as the aircraft took off the ground. She bade South City goodbye for the next three months. She hoped that the next ninety days would transform her life and heal the wounds in her heart. Meanwhile, April was in her penthouse when she received a call from Mrs, Beatrice.

"The papers would be faxed to you and a team of employees has been set up to ease your return into the business." "Oh my, that's wonderful," April said while sipping tea. "Good. Now get to work and leave me and my family alone." April could sense the call was about to end, and she immediately spoke. "Don't you think you are forgetting something
