SASHA’S POVThe Conrad estate was quiet the minute we had arrived. No cars, no lights, just total darkness.“Do you think they are here?” I asked, looking at Noah beck with uncertainty in my eyes. We had heard about the will reading, but looking at this building now, it looked like there was nothing here— no one just darkness and crickets.Noah smiled, “They are, just saving a faux illusion just in case the press got wind of the news,”He looked unbothered, they were about to read the second testament of his father’s will and he looked like he was walking into a bowling game.“Why are we still waiting out here? Shouldn’t we be inside with the rest of the family?” I asked.We were currently in the car, with Nina and matt, both looking at Noah beck like they were expecting him to explain the next move.“Sasha, sometimes, a moment of surprise is all that they need, to get their blood pumping,” he said.“Does this surprise also have something to do with the fact that you have refused for

SASHA’S POVElaine Smith stood tall, her eyes unapologetic as she scanned through the room, “I believe we are all present and I have no need on wasting further time,”Michael Alden looked lost, he had finished reading through the document that had been provided and it was obvious that whatever information she had given him were vital.“Ms Smith, you can see here that the seal hasn’t been broken,” Michael Alden said, showing her the folder that had been stamped with Mr Conrad’s seal.“I know, you wouldn’t dare want to face the law,” she said, pulling out a file from her bag.“What is that?” Petal asked, looking suddenly interested.“Mr Conrad had made sure that the documents were duplicated in case someone tried to tamper with them. And if it has been tampered with, then the documents will be nullified,” she said.Gosh, I loved the way this woman was handling them. She was fierce.“Are you accusing me of something, Ms Smith?” Michael Alden asked.“Should I?” she countered, staring him

AUTHOR’S POVPetal Conrad hated losing, she had always been a sore loser even at a young age.Noah Beck and Sasha were long gone, but the effects of their actions still stood. Her eyes looked around the room. Her fortress was breaking, and the life she had built was slowly slipping through the cracks.Her son had died, but before he died, he had revealed a sickening truth, he had fathered a son outside of his marriage, kept him hidden from the Conrad clan. The action had been easy, she thought that it would easily be forgotten.But no one forgets the story of the man who linked a river to the ocean. No one anticipated the disaster that would come after the action.Her eyes glared at the picture on the wall. There he was smiling like he hadn’t just crashed their whole lives. She had built the Conrad Empire with her husband and given the powers to her son, and now, the very strong hold that she had was slipping slowly from her fingers.“What are we going to do?” Eleanor mumbled, her voi

SASHA’S POVWhen Matt had mentioned the second clip and what it contained, I knew we weren’t just sitting back and playing defence any more. Noah was attacking and he was coming at them like a vicious mountain lion.No one gets this feeling, to have someone take up your cries like he could feel your pain and act on it. Noah Beck hadn’t let me out to wring and dry like I had expected, rather, he had taken the stones they had thrown and built a castle for me.“Why are you smiling like that?” Nina asked, settling beside me as she handed me a glass of orange juice.“Nothing,” I said, shaking my head slightly.“Huh,” she said in an unbelieving tone. “So how are we doing?” she asked, staring at the television as the newscaster analysed the story of the fake midwife and the real one.They had reached out to me, hoping that I would grant an interview, but I wasn’t ready for that. The scar that had been reopened was hurting too much to heal.“Nothing much, just the different hashtags that have

AUTHOR’S POVBACK AT THE CONRAD RESIDENCEThe house was wrapped in silence, but Petal’s mind was a thunderstorm. The vents of the week played through her mind. She had gone over to pay Sasha a visit, it was a move of intimidation. It would have worked, but Roland and his partner just had to make moves that they shouldn't have.And now, they were barely breathing from the ship that was slowly sinking.Eleanor walked into the room, her eyes soft as she stared at the matriarch, The woman may not be her biggest fan, but she needed to make sure that she was always on her good side.“What are we going to do? The board, if they see this…” Eleanor paused, her voice caught in her throat as she feared the worst that would come.“The board won't do a thing, I will talk to them. As far as they know, Sasha Beck and Noah Beck are trying so hard to sabotage the Conrad family,” she said.She knew that those words wouldn’t hold, nor would they calm the storm that would come. But it would buy time, tha
