But it didn't take them long to run into each other. Calvin smacked his head and chuckled. "Oh, this is embarrassing. Every guest of mine must have known Mr. Miller and Ms. Carlton from all that media coverage on their engagement." "I suppose everyone has heard about Mr. Miller's fiancée. But does anyone know who his ex-wife is?" With a laugh like silver bells, Everly approached the group. She had successfully sold off one of her properties just now. She was a cheerful and carefree spirit and was pretty. She tied her pink hair into a bun and strutted over in her stilettos. However, her pointed question was a rude shock to the guests around them.

She looked at her screen and saw that it was Erik. “Oh, God, no…” “Wow… Please, say you don’t react like that when I call you,” Lennon said smiling. “Absolutely, not,” Everly answered absently, wondering how to deal with this situation. “This is my friend, Erik… I’m acting like this because… Well, let’s just say he hasn’t been exactly supportive of me talking to you so I deliberately kept him in the dark… I didn’t tell him I was going to stay here, with you. I just told him about the ‘Fantasy Con.’.”

Erika abruptly realized intending on hopping up, but was just as quickly yanked closer receiving a light unprepared peck on the corners of her lips before being released. Speechless, she glared and the crafty teenager helplessly shaking her head and hurriedly excusing herself from the room to make the call. Breathing a sigh of relief while smiling foolishly, she went back down towards the hall grabbing her purse and finding her phone. But before the call could be made, a shocking notification alter suddenly prompted on her device. Several news reporting agencies posted the earth-shattering information announcing the engagement ceremony of the two wealthiest business tycoon’s daughter and son

He grinned. Sarah hesitated, not sure if she wanted to tell him, since it was a song that spoke volumes about her love for Harris. Her heart suddenly began beating faster. Finally, she sighed deeply and said quietly, keeping her tone casual, "It was 'Home.' By Elvis Costello." He squeezed her tighter against him, stroking her hair softly. After a long pause, he spoke quietly, almost inaudibly. "Yeah, I know the song. It's amazing, I can see why you loved that song."

“That’s what makes this so fucked.” That shut me up. Not because I disagreed. Because she was right. Emery had chosen me—again and again, even when I didn’t deserve it. Even when all I offered her was a fake picture of safety. I swallowed hard. “Where is she?” “She said she would be at a press brunch. Somewhere small, private, downtown. A chance to reclaim the narrative, I guess. Take her story back. On her own terms.” “That’s suicide,” I muttered. “They will devour her.”

It was just a family gathering between socialites in a private club where all people did was brag about their wealth, profit, their children and whatever else they could brag about. "How's the event preparation going on Manik?" Sia's dad asked. Lifting his gaze from his plate, he put on a polite smile, before replying, "We are just getting started." "It's surprising this time you brought a partner along. Won't you introduce her to us?" Kai's mum said, hand gesturing to Nandini who had been sitting beside Manik. "She is not his partner." Sia interjected, pulling in all the other's attention. "What I mean is-" her tone softened. "she is his new secretary, Nandini."

Octavia wondered. "Stay in your lane till the contract is over" he added and she nodded. He made to leave when his phone beeped. She watched him bring out his phone before his face contorted in a frown. Marcus exhaled, whipping his head to her. "Get ready, there's a party tomorrow." What? Octavia was shocked. So soon?

Serenity did not stop what she was doing and replied, “Well, aren’t you sharp, young lady? You’ve only been here for half a day, and you’ve caught wind of Everly.” “Sonny accidentally let her name slip, and I got curious, so I poked around and asked his secretary a few questions. Joseph mentioned a certain ‘Miss Everly’ without thinking, and I figured it had to be her.” “There’s absolutely nothing going on between Sonny and Everly. They’ve simply met a few times because their companies finalized a major partnership. That’s really all there is to it.” Jeanne giggled. “I didn’t say anything was going on! I’m just curious about this woman. Her willpower must be made of iron if she can resist So

When I woke up the next morning, I called my mom, my best friend, my cousin, my grandma, my hairdresser, my next-door neighbor, the lady I walked dogs for when I was fourteen; I called every number in my phone and told them all that I was engaged to the most wonderful man on the planet. My best friend Trinity, my cousin, and George's cousin were my bridesmaids. My best friend and I had already planned everything for years since the first time I scribbled my name Joanna Hart with George Starking to create Joanna Starking. Planning was a breeze even though his mother kept adding more and more details to everything, making it bigger and bigger than I had dreamed.
