William sat in the comfort of his chair, wrapped in a dry bathrobe that made the dampness of his previous clothes seem foreign. Behind him, water noise from the shower filled the bathroom, Isabella's desperate handiwork to get under the shower, which he paid little mind to as his eyes were glued to the screen of his tablet, fingers scrolling across the screen until they stopped. "President of Nova Mind, AI Billionaire, Aaron James Aldridge, Arrives with Arkwright Heiress Lilian Arkwright—Power Couple of the Year?" The headline of the articles read, written boldly across the screen in letters that seemed to stare back mockingly at him. His fingers moved before he could stop them, scrolling lower on the article. He regretted doing so almost immediately. Picture after picture flooded the lower page of the articles. One of Aaron with his annoyingly perfect smile. Another of Lily standing under the flashing lights. William's gaze lingered on that one picture longer than it should have

The table was covered with far more food than Lily expected.Walking down the stairs and towards the foshan rectangular, 12 seater dining table, she gave an impressed nod."Aurora is always like this when we have guests, it's like the rare occasion where she gets to get the chef to go all out." Aaron explained as he pulled open one chair for her.She glanced down at it, then back at him, narrowing her eyes."God forbid a man trying to be a gentleman," he muttered, a faint smirk playing across his lips.Lily rolled her eyes, but the slight curve of her lips betrayed her amusement as she sank into the chair. Aaron sat in the one just beside her and his gaze remained on her even as the maids came forward and began dishing the meal."Why are you staring?" She asked the moment she felt she couldn't take the silent stare any longer.Aaron smirked. "God forbid a man appreciate a beauty seated in front of him–""Knock it off," she cut him off, glaring subtly at him. "Stop Playing games."She

Lily hadn't seen Thomas for the last few days. She didn't expect the next place she'd be seeing him again at, after so long, would be in the tension of his office.Seated in the chair opposite his, she watched as he flipped through the fifth file since she'd walked in. He hadn't said anything after their conversation on the phone.And even the conversation they had on the phone had been short, a few words exchanged, more commands given.But Lily couldn't blame him with everything that was going on. If this was his way of scolding her, showing his care for her, then she has no choice but to understand.Or so she's been telling herself for the past thirty minutes.Now, she was tired of the silence. She definitely had other better things to do, like, you know, solving the issues of the fake nude pictures, rather than sitting in a chair watching him get his own work done.She took a deep breath, readying herself before she opened her mouth. But just as her lips parted, Thomas slammed shut

Lily first discovered Isabella's secret account when she'd gone over to celebrate the actress buying a car that looked more than any paycheck or movie gigs she could ever land.They'd been drinking that night and Lily noticed how Isabella's phone constantly went off, notification after notification. She'd allowed her curiosity to get the better of her and checked it when Isabella wasn't looking.That's when she discovered the account.A nameless social media account with no name, no profile picture, yet, a huge amount of followers. And the content, simple gossip, scandals about senators, actors and other high end individuals that quickly brought in lots of likes, comments and overall attention.The very thing Isabella seeks.The very thing she was now using against Lily."That bitch," the words rolled off her tongue, followed by an amusement scoff.Behind her, Richard asked, "What do you want us to do, Miss?"She stared down at the account for a second longer.How could she possibly h

Isabella stood at the center of it all.The ruin of her carefully built world.Static buzzed in her ears. Her eyes stung, the foreign sensation of tear pricking at the back of her eyes, but tears didn't fall. Her heart felt too many emotions, confusion, anger, resentment, betrayal, all at once, to know what to feel.And her expression, a blank canvas.Five minutes after William had left, she still remained where she'd been, staring at the floor, trying to piece together all that had just happened. But it seemed impossible. Even though everything happened at a normal speed, Isabella's brain and emotions interpreted everything in a way that made it seem like the whole situation happened in the blink of an eye.Like she wasn't given the chance to process what was happening, or even defend herself.But she was. She was given both chances and she blew it and now, she was left standing here, trying to understand how everything had come to this.She blinked once, perhaps the first time since
