KylieWeekends weren't typically my favorite because I had to spend an unknown amount of hours with Arnold. But this weekend was pleasant. Stephen was back home and was recovering. Lara was still distant from him but at least she had painstakingly taken two trips to his room since he arrived. All I needed now to make this perfect weekend was the fantastic news I was expecting from Jada.“You've been smiling at the wall,” Arnold said, watching me.I sipped my wine. Yes, another thing about weekends was that I could start my day with wine and not coffee. “It's a precious wall,” I replied.“I recognise that smile on your face, Kylie,” he continued. “What are you up to?”I huffed. “Don't you have somewhere to be today? Jordan is at the Business Leaders Conference and you're here bothering me about what's going on in my mind.”“Can’t I try to make conversation with my wife?” he asked.I heard the frustration in his tone. “I’m trying to make this work, Kylie, and I don’t think you are try

JordanThe car horn blared noisily as I leaned my head against the steering wheel. I pushed myself up and leaned against the headrest, closed my eyes, and let out a deep sigh.The tapping noise on my window interrupted my thoughts. I turned, opened my eyes, and looked at the intruder. It was Levi. He signaled for me to wind down the glass. I did.I saw a look of concern on his face. “Where have you been all day, Jordan? I’ve been trying to reach you.”My response was another sigh. Then I closed my eyes and leaned back on the headrest again.“Are you okay?” he asked. “What’s wrong? What else happened? Was it that bad?”I nodded to all his questions.“Shit, I’m sorry,” he said. “I should have found that out long before the conference. I messed up. I’m really sorry.”“It’s not your fault,” I said, my voice sounding strange to me. “You did your best, and I should have done something earlier, as soon as I got your message.”I thought that probably, if I had been with Marie Sue, I could hav

Jordan I found her, and like a moth drawn to a flame, I walked toward her without thinking. I didn't even notice the man standing in front of her until I was only a few feet away. “Jordan,” she called, rising to her feet. For a brief moment, I simply stood there, taking her in. Something in the way she looked at me made the noises in my head fade into the background. “This is Jordan Kensington,” she said to the other man, a faint smile touching her lips. “The CEO of Kensington Food.” “I know who he is,” the man replied. She turned back to me, and our eyes met again. There was something warm in her gaze, something that made my chest tighten despite my best effort to remain composed. “And this is Chad Boston,” she said, gesturing toward him. “My friend.” The man called Chad picked up his coat without offering pleasantries. “I’ll be on my way, Marie. I’ll see you tonight,” he said, slipping into his coat before walking away. I watched him leave before turning my attention back

Kylie “You don't care about the company?” I repeated, stepping forward. “I don't,” he responded. “I don't care about any of this.” He faced me squarely. “You're the one who made me take this position as vice chairman. I'm not interested in whatever goes on in those long, boring board meetings, or do I understand any of the rubbish documents on my desk. It's a headache to come to this place every day. This is not what I want out of my life.” I stood in silence, stunned at the man speaking in front of me. When I had left Jordan and eloped with Arnold, I assumed he was an ambitious man. I mean, he was ambitious enough to snatch me from his brother. So I thought that same ambition would drive him to rise to power and take the company. It was evident the only thing Arnold had been putting effort into since he came back to the company was sleeping around with the staff. I rubbed my palm over my face, placed my hand on my head, and let out a deep sigh. “You're a fucking loser, Arnold,

Marie Sue “I want you to meet my family, Jordan had said to me earlier in the day, holding my hand and smiling so brightly. “I want them to know that we are dating.” I felt suddenly overwhelmed by the thought of meeting his family, but nothing prepared me for the full table I met at dinner. When he said he wanted me to meet his family, I thought “family” meant Lara, Arnold, and maybe Kylie, if she cared to join. But what I didn't expect was to meet his father, his sister, and his friend at the table as well. I tried my best to maintain my composure and not look as nervous as I felt because my heart was aflutter. I sat down on the seat that was designated for me, which was beside Jordan, and I tried taking deep breaths and telling myself that I was not at a firing squad. I was just meeting Jordan’s family in another type of setting. “When you said ‘meet the family,’ I thought it was just Lara,” I said, leaning close to him and whispering. “Well, I didn't expect Stephen to be here
