Harry, out of slight annoyance, threw the phone onto the sofa. “Can you imagine that fool haranguing me on something I already know and don't give a fucking care about?” He exclaimed, as if he would have done something terrible to the person if he were right there with him.Charlotte cupped his cheeks in her hand, letting out an exasperated sigh. “Don't take to heart what that idiot just said,” she said softly and Harry looked at her.His expression softened almost at once. Her charming smile sends a chill down. She wasn't concerned about the comment the person made. Maybe, it was just out of concern.“So, what's the next step from here?” She asked curiously.“Nothing much,” Harry replied gently. “Let's just sit down and watch as the drama unfolds. Her downfall begins from here.” He reassured her, his tone firm with trust. He then reluctantly looked into Charlotte's eyes, his face filled with admiration. “You look beautiful every day. Can we go and…..” “Of course,” Charlotte said,

That same morning, in a beautiful polished living room. A bottle of liquor was sighted on a refined table.A man sat on a sofa with a composed yet boastful expression, his legs relaxed softly on the table with a drink as he watched the turned-on TV with a satisfied smile spread across his face. He occasionally sips from the glass of liquor, half-filled, in his hand. Just then, a woman dressed in a beautiful yet skimpy dress descended into the living room. She glanced at the man, curiosity and eagerness in her expression. “How did it go, Harry?” Charlotte asked, walking over. She reached out for a glass and poured herself a generous amount of the liquor before taking her seat.“Did everything go as planned? Were you able to accomplish it?” She continued, taking a brief sip. Harry's gaze flicked to her briefly, his smile growing wider. He sipped his drink again before placing it back down on the table. Completely reducing the volume of the TV with a soft remote control press, he loo

As Anthony stepped out of the room, Sarah shook her head, a satisfied smile on her face. “He's such a nice person,” she commented, glancing toward the door, as if she were seeing him. “So rare to find someone so loving and caring like him.” At some point, she felt her stomach twist with a strange feeling. Her smile still lingering as she stood rooted at a spot, admiring his personality. Just as she was lost in thought, her phone vibrated on the sofa and started to ring, pulling her out of her thoughts. She reluctantly took it, glanced at the screen and her face seemed to experience a slight change as she stared at the person calling. “Dad?” She murmured, her heart racing. She had totally forgotten she didn't pass the night at her place yesterday, and seeing her father calling, reminded her of everything now. Her finger hovered over the screen, as if considering whether to decline or accept the call. With a huff, Sarah swiped up the green button and put the phone clo

Sarah paused, looking at him. Her expression slightly changed as she dropped her phone to respond. “Actually,” her voice cracked with emotion as she started. “She's no more.” “Ah!” Anthony exclaimed, staggering back slightly, completely shocked to the bone. He shook his head sadly, sympathizing. “So sorry about the loss.” Sarah smiled faintly, her expression sour. “It’s something painful, honestly, but I've moved on, letting go of the past.” She said “It all happened on my 21st birthday when she fell sick,” she continued. “And as if she knew she was going to pass away, she handed her small company—all built by herself—to me as a gift.” Sarah took a breath, tears forming in her eyes. Anthony's face turned pale as he shook his head. He leaned forward, took Sarah's hand into his, squeezing it softly. “I can feel your pain,” he uttered, his voice calm and gentle. He looked at her, his eyes traveling straight into hers to keep her strong. He continued quietly, his voice fi

“We're sorry if this is coming late,” a lady from the kitchen, covered in an apron, quickly said, her voice apologetic, as Anthony opened the door for her. “No,” Anthony said quickly, shaking his head, “you actually came at the right time.” The lady walked further into the room, with a tray of dishes in her hands. She placed it on the table, poured the bottles of water into the glasses. The aroma of the dishes wafted into the air. Anthony closed the door, walked closer, and inhaled. He nodded, allured, but his casual expression masked it. Straightening up, the lady said, smiling. “Everything's perfectly cooked. I'm certain you'd love it. And please, when you do, give your honest review.” Anthony nodded, returning her smile. His voice was genuine as he replied. “Sure thing. I definitely will.” The lady looked at him, happy. As her gaze shifted, it fell on Sarah, who stood by and watched. She glanced at her, admiration seeping through her face. “Wow! Miss., you look

Anthony sighed, shaking his head. “You saw nothing.” He leaned back on his seat, crossing his leg. “I made sure to keep them tight….but if you want to see, I can s—” He replied, trying to tease. But Sarah shook her head, interrupting. “Don’t worry, I don't want to.” They both chuckled, looking at each other. After a brief moment, Anthony stretched his body and stood up. “I know you must be hungry,” he said, glancing at Sarah. “What would you like for breakfast?” He asked. Sarah yawned lightly, standing up also, as she took in the beautiful room. “Anything will serve,” she replied. Anthony sighed but didn't bother pressing further. He nodded and walked over to a nearby table. Grabbing the telephone on it, he punched in a number and sent it. “Hello? Good morning to you, sir. How may we help you today?” A polite female voice came through from the other end of the call. “Calling from room number 003 at the penthouse. I need two dishes of fried rice and chicken alongside two bott
