Stephanie stood there as she glanced at Everyone, Jayden, Vanessa and Uncle White. Nothing had changed, just like two years ago Jayden was still the same no difference. The way he narrowed his eyes, the tiny frown on his forehead and the nervous bite on his lower lip. Jayden was still the same and Vanessa was exactly what the information said about her. Always running after Jayden, she wasn’t supposed to be here but here she was acting all clingy.Stephanie chuckled when she saw the look on Vanessa's face screaming trouble. I’m here for trouble myself! She smirked and blew a kiss at Jayden. This made Vanessa frown her brows even deeper but Stephanie acted nonchalant.Jayden chuckled and stood up from his seat. While Vanessa sat there glaring at Stephanie.“ It's been a while!” He raised an eyebrow. “I never thought you would be back here in Greenville!”“ It's been months since we last met Jayden. What do you expect? After years away from home, I'm finally back!” She opened her arms,

As she continued to organize her tasks, Vera couldn't help but reflect on the journey that had led her to this point. It had taken courage and determination to speak up and advocate for herself, and now she was reaping the rewards. The realization that her actions had brought about this positive change filled her with a renewed sense of confidence and empowerment.Vera's mind wandered to her friend Lena, who had been a constant source of support throughout her struggles. She imagined Lena's surprised expression upon hearing the news. "Lena would be so shocked if she found out," Vera mused, a smile tugging at the corners of her lips. The thought of sharing this incredible turn of events with her friend brought her immense joy.William sank back into his office chair, his mind filled with regret and disbelief. He couldn't fathom what he had put the girl he liked, Vera, through. "I can't believe I made her feel that way," he murmured to himself, his voice heavy with self-reproach. The we

Vera's heart sank further. She felt a sense of helplessness wash over her as she realized the distance was working against her. However, she refused to give up."Please, I'm really in a bind here. Is there anything you can do? I'm willing to pay extra if necessary," Vera pleaded, her voice tinged with desperation."I understand your situation, but the distance would require a significantly higher fee. It would be triple our usual rate," the voice explained Shown in their tone.Vera was taken aback by the exorbitant price, but she knew she had no other choice. She had to keep trying, hoping her luck would turn around and the car would miraculously start working again.Determined, Vera ended the call and resumed her efforts to flag down passing vehicles. She waved her arms vigorously, hoping that someone would finally stop and lend her a hand. The minutes turned into an agonizing wait as she anxiously scanned the empty road, her eyes darting from one direction to another.But despite he

William skillfully drove his car, bringing it to a halt in front of his apartment building. Vera, her eyes darting around, took in the surroundings, a sense of uncertainty clouding her mind. Sensing her unease, William turned to her and spoke reassuringly, "We've arrived, Vera." She nodded, mustering a deep breath, and slung her bag over her shoulder, fully aware that she had nowhere else to spend the night but at her boss's place.As William stepped out of the car, Vera mirrored his movements, her nerves getting the better of her. the situation settled upon her as she joined William, following closely behind. Each step was laced with apprehension, the gravity of the unknown lingering in her mind.Approaching the front door, William took the lead, his confident strides guiding them forward. Vera trailed silently, her thoughts racing, unsure of what awaited her on the other side. William reached the door and swiftly entered the password, the mechanism unlocking with a soft click. With

The minutes stretched into a comfortable silence as they both leaned back in their dining chairs, their stomachs contentedly full. William's mind was filled with satisfaction and curiosity, his gaze still fixed on Vera.Feeling a sense of tranquility settle over her, Vera broke the silence. "William, I think I'm going to call it a night. I'm feeling quite sleepy," she announced, her voice soft and dreamy.William nodded understandingly, a warm smile gracing his lips. "Of course, Vera. But then give me a minute," he replied and made his way to his room.As Vera rose from her seat, she instinctively took charge of the remaining dishes, her desire to be helpful shown. She swiftly cleared the plates from the table and made her way to the kitchen, determined to wash them before William could even think of it.In the kitchen, Vera meticulously scrubbed the dishes, her mind filled with a whirlwind of thoughts.
