Julia’s POV“I’m not going with you,” I said.Alex stared at me. No more drama from you.” He paused and continued. “I have to go to the company,” he added. There’s a mess I need to clean up. But I can’t leave you here. You will cause another trouble.” I looked away. “I can take care of myself.”He took a step closer, his voice sounding impatient. “Grandpa’s health is unstable. I’m not risking it. You’re coming with me.”“I don’t want to go to your house,” I murmured.Alex didn’t reply. He didn’t give me the chance to argue again, either. He entered the room and took my things and then reached for my arm, dragging me towards his car. “At least wait for grandpa’s return.” I said but my words fell on deaf ears. The ride was silent. I stared out the window, refusing to meet his gaze, though I felt him glance at me more than once occasionally. The moment we pulled into the driveway of his mansion, the memories began to flow back as I remembered the cold, elegant, immaculate humiliatio

Julia’s POV Immediately, I saw Stella’s change of reaction. She looked tensed now. “I’m sure the CCTV wouldn’t lie.” I added. Alex stared at me and then at Stella. And then Alex and I made our way towards the room, Stella trailing a step behind us. I could feel Stella stealing glances at me while Alex’s expression remained unreadable. Reaching the bathroom, there was no camera inside the bathroom, only one stationed right outside the door. That single camera was the only eye that had captured what happened. I stopped just beneath the camera’s angle and looked up and then my fingers clutched the sleeve of Alex’s jacket, tugging at him ever so slightly. He glanced at me and then opened his phone since it was connected to the camera. Stella stuttered. “Sir…” but Alex ignored her as his attention was on his phone, trying to access the CCTV camera. Shortly, the video began to play. The image of Stella appeared on the screen , though not clear enough. It showed Stella yankin

Julia’s POVThe moment I saw the necklace, my heart felt a sudden relief. The necklace was a pearls strung together in a flawless strand, creamy white, perfectly round, with the faintest luminescent sheen that shone in the light like moonlight on water. The necklace’s importance likely stems from its deep emotional value to me. It was my mother’s favorite newer jewelry. It has been a cherished heirloom, passed down through generations of my great grand mother and to my grandmother and then to my mother. It’s a quiet moment of connection of the family. I want to find it because losing it feels like losing a piece of my soul, my mother is supposed to pass it to me.I was extremely excited.“I’ll call you when I need you.” I said to the maid massaging me and she nodded and left the room.Then I continued reading. “t’s a private auction, by Invitation only.”I didn’t wait for her to finish.“Find a way,” I’d said. “Please, Emily. I need to be there. That necklace, it’s not just some hei

Julia’s POVLucas? Seeing Lucas’s message, I am extremely confused why but then I waved that thought and then decided to type a reply. I was just about to type a reply that I had been so busy lately and that’s why I haven’t got to see him when Lucas sent another message, it was a photo. I clicked on the image and to my surprise, It was the official Havemont invitation, elegant parchment sealed with a golden crest. My fingers paused mid-type. He followed it up with a message. “I got a special invitation at Havemont but I won’t be able to attend on that day. I’ve got some arrangements I can’t reschedule. But I want you to have this. It’s your mother’s and must be important to you, so I think this invitation will be more useful in your hands than being wasted by me .”What a lucky day for me! I needed a thing so much and someone just handed it to me!But how did Lucas know that it was my mother’s necklace ?I stared at the photo, then back at the message. I couldn’t believe everything

Julia’s POVAlex and Celeste walked into the dining room, fingers intertwined. Celeste smiled slightly, tucking a strand of her perfectly curled hair behind her ear as Alex pulled out her chair and helped her sit down with all the gallantry of a man starring in his own romantic drama. Alex sat beside her too.“Try this,” Alex said softly, lifting a piece of seared scallop from his plate and gently feeding it to her.Celeste opened her mouth with reluctance, cheeks flushing in shyness as if the moment embarrassed her, though she clearly adored every bit of attention from Alex and I knew. “Alex, not in front of your wife,” she whispered with a coy smile, her eyes moving briefly toward me. “It’s not appropriate.” She added.Alex chuckled, dabbing at the corner of her lips with his napkin to clean the stain in my mouth.“Don’t worry about her.” He replied.I smiled and took a sip of my wine, as if their actions were invisible in my eyes. “This food is amazing,” I said, cutting into my sal
