Clara heard her phone ring in her sleep, she groaned and decided to ignore it. She was too exhausted and needed to sleep. It stopped ringing but started ringing again immediately. Without opening her eyes, she used her hands to search for the phone on her bed. She finally found it and picked up the call without looking at the corner. She placed the phone on her ear and sighed before speaking up.“Hello.” She called with a sleepy voice.“Clara.” She heard the caller say softly. She knew who it was immediately and opened her eyes.“Xavier.” She called back and waited for him to speak. She didn't bother to ask how he got her number, she knew he would find his way. All she wanted to know was why he was calling.He didn't say anything so she decided to speak. She looked at the time before placing the phone on her ear again.“It's the middle of the night, why are you calling?”“I… I am… ““Drunk.” Clara ended his statement for him. She could tell he was, his heavy breathing, the sluggishn

Xavier stared at Kathrine and Sarah as they walked down the stairs. Sarah was crying as the maids behind them dragged their bags.After Xavier left Clara’s house earlier, he headed to the hospital and informed Kathrine to be there with Sarah. The DNA test was done and the result was out hours later, Sarah really isn't his daughter. Katherine knew she couldn't argue about it anymore, she knew she had been caught.They got to the living room and Sarah rushed to Xavier, she held his legs and looked up at him in tears. “Daddy, please. I don't want to leave.” She cried. Xavier didn't say anything as he stared down at her.“Come on Sarah, let’s go.” Kathrine said.“She is staying.” Xavier suddenly said and Sarah’s cries died down.“Wha… ““You are leaving but she is staying.” Xavier cut Kathrine off as she was about to argue with him. “She is not your daughter.” She scoffed. Xavier stared at her in disbelief, she wasn't remorseful at all. She doesn't care.“Sarah, do you want to go wi

Everyone waited impatiently in the hallway at the hospital. Dexter and Xavier were pacing. Lucy and Carl were seated, carrying the twins. Mr & Mrs. Blackwell weren't there, they were back at their mansion with Sarah. It had been up to an hour that they had been waiting to get a response from the doctor, they were hoping it would be positive. Clara wasn't breathing by the time they got her to the hospital, everyone was scared. Kaylee kept crying in Carl’s arms while Kaylen looked like he wanted to cry but he was fighting his tears.Kaylee sniffed loudly and Carl looked down at her, he wrapped his arms around her and stroked her hair.“It's okay, she will be fine.” He whispered to her. Suddenly, the door to the room opened and everyone rushed towards the doctor. “How is she?” Xavier asked.“Is she okay?” Dexter asked. “We don't know for now but she is stable.” The doctor replied, staring at their worried faces.“Wha… What happened to her?” Lucy asked.“She was poisoned.” He repli

Clara spent the rest of the day at the hospital, the doctor informed them she would be discharged in the morning. Dexter had to leave with the twins so they could have a proper sleep. Lucy had to leave too, she had business to attend to. She also left because Dexter made her uncomfortable. He kept staring at her and whispering to her that he knew what she did.Lucy was confused and worried so she left. Carl and Xavier had to leave too, they had business to do and they were also investigating the situation. To cut it short, Clara was alone. She had Dexter bring her laptop and phone before he left so she could work from the hospital. She investigated by herself too, she made a few calls but she couldn't get anything positive out of them. She decided to focus on her companies. As she replied to multiple emails, the door to the ward opened and Xavier walked in. She looked up at him as he closed the door and walked towards her.“Hey.” He called as he got to her.“How are you doing?” H

Clara walked back into the study and met Dexter sitting at her table. His eyes were fixed on her table as she walked closer to him. “Has he gone?” Dexter asked as she took a seat ok the table. She was directly in front of him.“Yes.” Clara replied.“With the kids.” She added and he looked up at her.“Anastasia, you are making this too easy for him.” Dexter said and she rolled her eyes.“I am not working now, I would really love it if you call me Clara.” She replied.“Fine, you do know the weeks you were given are almost up right?” Dexter asked.“I know and I am working on it. You have nothing to worry about. Letting him spend some time with his kids isn't so bad, after the weeks are up, he will never get to see them again so let him enjoy the moment.” Clara replied and he sighed before nodding.“Have you found out who poisoned you at the party?” He asked.“Not yet but I am close.” She answered. Dexter moved closer to her and stared at her, she raised her brows, giving him a questioni
