Lucas stood still, his eyes were locked on Luke who was standing in front of him. He didn’t know what to expect but he knew something really bad was coming next.“Talk,” he said finally. “Start from the very beginning,I want to hear everything that happened.”Luke Hamilton nodded slowly before he got up to his feet, he brushed his hands against his pants to wipe off the dirts and then, he let out a deep breath.“It started... I think around eleven years ago,” he began. “That was probably the time Scarlet left you.”Lucas’s jaw clenched, but he said nothing. He remembered that year so well like it was a few days ago.“I didn’t know much then and i didn’t even know she was with you before because she never said your name. I just met her randomly at this small café downtown in California. She looked all classy but a bit broken, to be honest. She said she was going through stuff, and I was just… I don’t know…just being friendly at first.”Lucas kept his eyes on him, he never said a word a

Lucas stepped into Clarissa's bedroom, the tension from his confrontation with Scarlet clung to him. He stood close to the door for a moment, letting the weight of everything settle over his shoulders.His shoulders tensed as images of Lily swamp in his head. Her childish giggles and laughter filled his head. Her pouts, her warm smile...everything. He would miss her. But he knew he couldn't continue to hold onto stuff that wasn't his. Luke deserves her more.Lucas ran a hand over his face and moved to sit on the edge of the bed, he lowered his head and placed both elbows on his knees, lost in thoughts.Just then, his phone buzzed in his pocket. He pulled it out and saw the caller ID.With a tired breath, he answered the call, swiping the answer button. "Hi, Grandma."Her warm and familiar voice came through instantly, a bit too cheerful for the kind of day he was having."Well, well, look who finally picked up! Busy fighting off heartbreakers again?" she teased gently, sounding to

Clarissa stepped into the Rhodes family house early that morning. Her body was tired and her eyes felt heavy due to the lack of sleep and the tension overall. She had worked all night and hadn’t even changed her clothes. Stepping into the living room, the whole house smelled like pancakes and coffee.The first person she saw was Lorraine.“Mama!” he shouted, running straight at her with his backpack bouncing behind him.She bent low and hugged him tight, burying her face in his soft hair. “Hey, sweetheart. You’re all ready for school?”He nodded multiple times in excitement. “Yes. Uncle Edward helped me with my tie!”Edward came from the dining room holding a travel mug. “You’re late,” he said to Clarissa, teasing. “We already had breakfast. Thought you forgot we exist.”Clarissa rolled her eyes. “I was fixing the whole company overnight. Forgive me for not showing up at the family breakfast party.”Edward laughed and picked up Lorraine with one arm like he weighed nothing. “Alright,

A black SUV slowly drove into the Hernandez compound and rolled to a stop at the entrance of the tall mansion. Scarlet sat quietly in the backseat, her makeup smudged on her face making her look like a dazed mad woman,her lips kept trembling nonstop. Lily had fallen asleep crying in her lap. The moment the car stopped, a few maids rushed out with umbrellas."Ma'am, let me," one said gently, lifting Lily from her arms.Scarlet hesitated before releasing the child for them, brushing the hair out of Lily's face. "Take her upstairs and be careful.""Yes, ma'am."She watched them disappear into the house before she stepped out slowly, her heels clicking on the wet pavement. Scarlet wrapped her arms tightly around herself as she walked into the house.The living room was warm unlike the temperature outside that could freeze one’s bones. Her father stood on the staircase, a glass of whiskey in hand, two bodyguards standing nearby. His sharp eyes immediately fell on his daughter who entere

“Dad, I’ve got this.” Clarissa sighed into the phone before ending the call.She tucked her phone back into the back, fixed her hair and tried to remain calm while waiting for Lucas. She sat at the table by the window of a fancy restaurant, her fingers wrapped around a warm cup of tea she hadn't sipped yet. She had set up a meeting with Lucas to formally talk to him about his interference in her company’s affair and to know the reason he had butt in without her even asking for his help.She had gotten there early on purpose because she needed a minute to breathe, to figure out how she wanted to say the things that had been on her chest for days. The restaurant was quiet that day because there were just a few people. She looked up from her phone, just in time to see him walk in. He looked same as ever. Neat, confident, and so captivating that everyone in the restaurant began to murmur.His eyes met hers from across the restaurant and he gave her a small nod before walking over. Cl
