“I don't appreciate what you just did.” Helen push away from Alex. “It's not my fault that you have chosen to run away from me. If we had been spending more time today, maybe I would have known that you are not a PDA person.” He sits down right where Cam was sitting a few minutes ago. “You just kissed me!! I didn't consent to that! I do not appreciate that!” She barks at him. “Relax, Helen, you've made your point.” He raises his hands, laughing. Helen is not laughing at all, she is very angry at him. She snatches his phone from him and deletes the pictures that Cameron took. “I better not see them in the news, or else I am going to kill you with my own hands.” She fumes. Alex leans forward, as if he has just noticed something even more interesting about her.“You're protecting your fiance, aren't you? The same coward who has gone into hiding since I announced my intention towards you. If he loves you, he should come out and fight for you.” “Alex, I'm not going to get married to

Helen has finally made a connection with Cameron. It's obvious that he was angry with her, because it was MJ that called her to inform her about the time and date. She wasn't satisfied with it, but she made up her mind to speak to him thoroughly once he came. She gets a special window table, and lets her eyes feast on the beautifully lit night while she sips her champagne. It's midnight, and there are not many people here. “You shouldn't be here, you should be sleeping.” She hears a too familiar voice and turns around. Her heart squeeze a little with pain. It's Cameron, and he looks so cold towards her. “Need I remind you that you were the one who picked the time and date?” She snorts. “Because I didn't think that you would be stupid enough to show up.” “You know I'm anything but stupid.” She glares at him. “You accepted Alex Kane’s ring, I will say that's not the most sensible thing ever.” Stands by the table. “Oh,” she folds her hands. “So that is what this is all about.

Even though everything seems to be burning around him, somehow Leon has managed to keep calm. He turned off his phone for a few weeks, and he has been dividing his attention between the hospital, and spending time in the lab. Alex Kane has been sending him reminders, and Leon keeps ignoring them. This is a trying time for him. He can help Alex Kane, he knows this because he believes in his prowess, but should he keep his medical vow and help the same man whose family killed his parents?!He knows that as soon as Kane is cured of his cancer, he is going to force Helen into marrying him, and probably give the Shankly empire to Damien just to spite her. The simple answer is right there on the tip of his tongue, he should just make a fake cure and watch Alex Kane shrivel and die as painfully as possible….He is still thinking when he hears an angry knock on the glass. He takes off his goggles to see MJ, glaring at him. “Oh, shit.” he mutters under his breath. He turned off his ph

“What do you mean that I should vacate the mansion for you to stay?!” Mrs Xavier yells at her daughter. This is one of the few times she is having a fight with her daughter, and it's because her daughter has approached her with the most ridiculous offer. Selina rolls her eyes and runs her hand over her belly. “What else do you want me to do, mum? I can't find a good enough place in time, do you want your grandchildren to be born in a cheap hotel?” Mrs Xavier folds her hands angrily. “Why don't Damien find a bigger house for your family?? Isn't that what the husband is supposed to do?! You told me that the news about him was just a rumor! Selina, has your husband suddenly gotten poor?!” A hot flash goes across her face. “After all the expensive gifts that my husband bought you? How dare you, mum?!” “Selina, you are asking me to move into the servant quarters to make you and your husband comfortable enough. Does that make any sense to you?!” “Well, we all have made s

Helen has given Damien a quit notice and this means that if he doesn't get out of the house in two days, she is going to kick them out. Damien didn't have just one house, but Helen took back everything! They didn't even have a shed to go to. Now, Selina wouldn't stay anywhere close to a hotel that is not the most expensive in the city, but Damien knows that will take what little money they have left. Helen also froze his accounts, so that means that he has a few hours left to find a way out of this mess, or else he is going to be fucked. Selina is just a few weeks away from her expected day of delivery. Damien has gotten rid of the Grimm family, and that's just one step towards their plan. Now, Helen has caused another trouble for them. Selina is not one to ask for help, but what's she going to do in a situation like this? She isn't putting all of her hope in Damien, he might return to the house in a few hours with no good news. She gets into the car that won't be hers in a fe

Elle let's out a gasp as soon as she sees herself standing in front of Mabel's house. Its a duplex, a medium sized one in an estate for retired people that love to have their peace and quiet, away from the business of the nearby city. In the history of the Shankly family and the August family (Helen's maternal family name), Mabel August is the most brilliant of them all. She holds one of the highest IQ in the world. She is an academic force to be reckoned with, but she has a downside, she has a social inability – crippling anxiety that is one of them serious cases in the world. So, although she has worked and make a lot of research, she never appear in public, and even though she performed a few groundbreaking surgeries, her anxiety grew and she retired to the comfort of her mansion. Her sister, the late Mrs Shankly, understood her sister's predicament and used the rest of her life to protect her. Luckily, when she died, Helen never forgot her Aunt. Mabel had many wealth of her
