The tone of the message sounded rather distressing and my heart began to race.“What's wrong?” Ethan asked, noticing my sudden change in demeanor.I quickly showed him the message and his brow furrowed as he read through it.Instantly, Ethan changed the direction of the steering and soon enough we were already on our way home.When we finally got home, I hurriedly entered the house, my heart pounded in my chest. My heart was still racing from the urgency of Ma Jane's message.As soon as I stepped inside, the sight before me made me pause mid-step. “Vivian!” I gasped in disbelief as I saw her standing there with her daughter Emily.Vivian looked as composed as ever with an unsettling smile plastered on her face as if she had just won a battle.“Surprise!” She chimed, her voice dropping with mock cheerfulness.It turns out she had been granted parole and was back to the house.“Well, am back to my husband's house” she blurted out“Dad, you didn't officially divorce her?” I

“I’m in the state garden” she replied while letting out soft sobs “I just need to get away for a moment” Hearing her in distress made my heart ache “I'm on my way” I said, quickly turning the car around and heading toward the garden as I could only imagine how overwhelmed she might be. I arrived at the garden and spotted Ma Jane sitting on a bench with her shoulders shaking as she tried to compose herself. As soon as she saw me, she burst into tears. “Avery, I can't do this anymore. I am tired of fighting. I don't know what to do” she cried out “Maybe marrying your father was a mistake. I am just a maid and I will always be” She sobbed uncontrollably as the words spilled out of her torrent emotions. I listened intently as she pouted her heart out. I allowed her to let it all out without interruption. “Dad asked Ethan and I not to get involved” I finally said “He wants to settle everything on his own” I added “Dad loves you, Ma Jane” I said and pulled her hand into mine “

I was in the kitchen making dinner when I suddenly felt a presence behind me.Before I could turn, Lucas sneaked up on me and in my surprise, the knife I was holding pierced a little into my skin. “Ouch!” I exclaimed quickly, dropping the knife and instinctively clutching my arm.Lucas panicked“Hold still” he said as he rushed me to the sick bay in the mansion Once we arrived, he gently sat me down and began to access the small cut on my arm.“I never knew a place like this existed in the mansion” I said Lucas smirked looking up at me with a teasing glint in his eyes“It seems like you only know the bedroom, kitchen and sitting room” he quipped as he wrapped a bandage around my arm carefully I rolled my eyes but a smile crept unto my face“I guess I have not explored the mansion as much as I thought” “Exactly!” Lucas urged as he finished up the first aid“You should explore the mansion even more, especially since you're the soon to be Mrs Blackwood”“Again..” he

As I was going about my task at Eclipse Enterprise, I caught sight of Lucas's tall frame through the transparent glass of the entrance.My curiosity piqued and I stood up to see what had brought him to the office.As I got closer, it became clear what he was up to. He was holding a beautiful, vibrant and colorful bouquet of flowers which made my heart warm at the sight.Just then, Ethan emerged from the office, clearly wanting to talk to Lucas. But I quickly signalled for him to keep quiet, not wanting to interrupt the moment Lucas looked a bit nervous as he constantly adjusted the flowers in his hand.Ethan raised a confused eyebrow but was willing to comply as he watched the interaction unfold.Lucas walked over to Racheal's desk, with his movement reflecting a noticeable uneasiness.Racheal looked up and was surprised at the sight of Lucas“Hey, what are you doing here?” She asked, but her gaze fell to the bouquet of flowers in his hands, and I could sense the shift in her counten

Finally, it was my wedding. I was both nervous and excited. I was getting married again. This time, to the love of my life, and the weight of the realization both thrilled and terrified me.As I sat in the bridal suite, I could hear the soft chuckles coming from the other room, where Catherine and Ma Jane were busy fussing over my wedding dress. Their laughter was infectious and it brought a smile to my face, despite the tension coiling in my stomach.I could only imagine how beautiful my dress looked, hanging there waiting for me. I took a deep breath, trying to calm my racing heart.In the meantime, the makeup artist was busy applying the finishing touches. She worked with precision according to request while I focused on the mirror, admiring how beautiful her makeup has turned it to be.After the makeup, I was gently guided into the next room, where my wedding dress awaited me. The moment I stepped inside, my breath caught in my throat.The dress was so breathtaking. It was a mas
