It came in the form of a mysterious figure, someone from our past whose intentions remained shrouded in secrecy. One evening, as I returned home from a charity event, a note awaited me on the doorstep. It was written in elegant calligraphy, the words sending a chill down my spine. It read: "Dear Ava, I know your secrets. I know the truth that you've buried deep within your heart. If you want to protect the ones you love, meet me at the place where it all began." The mention of secrets and the insinuation that my loved ones were at risk sent a surge of fear through my veins. I immediately contacted Adrian and urged him to meet me at the designated location. We had to confront this mysterious

Alicia yelled at him. He wasn't able to reply because his secretary walked in, holding a news paper in her hand. "I think you should see this!"the secretary said as she gave him the paper "Celine Clifford, our once beloved athlete has a new man in toll, they are being seen every where and it certainly tells us that they are dating each other, well though they are keeping quiet about it, we all know that there is some thing going on, there is even a ring to prove that she really in deep,well this is the love life of our beloved athlete."

It was just like old times but with kids present. Secret made me get abused my my own aunt, Secret made Catherine my best friend, Secret made Kendall close to me, Secret made me cry for almost losing Josh and made me realize how important he is to me, Secret made my relationship with Axel stronger, Secret reunited me with my dad, Secret made our bond stronger.

But whenever I smelled that candle, I did end up sleeping pretty deeply. But after Clarissa heard that, her expression grew even darker. She quickly walked over and blew out the candle, her face grim. Seeing her react like that made a strange uneasiness rise in my chest. "What's wrong?" She looked straight into my eyes and said slowly, word by word, "That's an aphrodisiac candle!"

Just as she lifted it, her phone buzzed with an incoming video. The file name read: TOP SECRET - LEVEL SSS. Scarlett's expression instantly sharpened. She set the glass down and opened the video immediately. The second it started playing, breathless moans echoed through the room. Scarlett froze.

Lily turned and walked out. I watched her leave, then pulled out my phone. I opened a secure line and made a call. "Phoenix? This is Aurora Arkin." It was the first time I had ever spoken my true last name inside Thorne Industries. "Yes. I need to consult you on a unilateral breach of secret investment contracts. Evidence? I have it all.
