"What do you want?" He asked, his gray eyes staring straight into my soul and making me all bothered, I felt like he knew what I wanted before I even opened my my mouth. "I want them to regret it, I want them to miss the me, who listened to all their whim but was scorned," she said in a whisper, her voice was velvet and soft but the fire in her eyes told him otherwise, it was burning with lust for revenge. Sapphire's fiance invited her to his wedding with her best friend, a week to their wedding, nine years relationship went down the drain and she couldn't do anything about it. Her family praised his fiance because they hate her and he is richer. Betrayed, humiliated and wronged, she left home, never to return. Until she and her two kids were brought back by her grandmother two years later, her grandmother has already arranged a marriage with a multi billionaire for her. And she soon found out that the billionaire would do absolutely anything for her.

I didn't do anything, I haven't been to a club in three years, talk less of working there as a stripper,” “I really believe you. Believe me when I say I don't agree with them, I know you are not the one but there are videos and pictures of you that prove it right and it is really you, Sapphire. Anyone could see that,” Maxwell said and pressed his phone for a while before dropping it in front of her.“This is going to hurt you but you have to see this,” Maxwell added and after the ad that was displaying on the phone was over, a news anchor popped up on the screen.“Sapphire Eva Conrad is the first daughter of the Conrad family, a family that has been wealthy for ages, she is engaged to Mr Oliver Gray but recently it has been discovered that she is the worst of all species. Even though
Alexander and the kids stood at the window, looking over the garden and watching as Sapphire and Matthew discussed.“What do you think that man wants?” Andrew asked.“Who knows? Mom said that he is part of the Conrad family, he also said that he has a message for her from the rest so we just wait and watch.” Andrea replied, staring intently at the man.“Why is he asking about our dad though, I don’t see how that is any of his business,” Andrew said, and Andrea nodded.“What do you think would happen if your dad shows up?” Alexander asked and Andrea stared at him in confusion.“Aren’t you our dad?” Andrea asked and Andrew rolled his eyes.“He is talking about our birth father, mom called it bio- something,” Andrew said.“Biological,” Alexander said and Andrew nodded.“Yes, that is the word!” He confirmed.“It depends on who the man is, if you turned out to be our father then we would stay,” Andrea said and Andrew nodded, Alexander raised a brow at the kids.“Though the chance is pretty m
“This is Alexander, my husband,” Sapphire said instead, pointing to Alexander who was patting the kids head.“Oh, I see…” he said with half attention, he seemed to be thinking about another thing.“So what do you have to say to me?” She asked with a raised brow.“Can we discuss it privately?” He asked, staring at Claire and Alexander.“Okay,” Sapphire said, she turned to Alexander. “I would be back in a bit,” She told him and he nodded .“Come this way,” Sapphire said and led Matthew into the garden, the man followed him like a lost puppy.She sat on the chair that was in the garden and he sat down beside her.“Grandma told me to tell you to come over to the house, she had something to discuss with you, something about asking you to join the family company,” Matthew said, and Sapphire raised a brow at him.“And why would I do that?” Sapphire asked and Matthew sighed.“She thinks that since you are not dating or engaged to Oliver and you are not working in his company, you should come
Sapphire stood at the stairs and let out a sigh when she saw Matthew who was sitting on the couch. She didn't want to get involved with most of the Conrads.Why can't they just leave her alone, she just wants to make her kids happy for now, why can't they just do the honors of doing her alone.Alexander stared from Sapphire to the guy on the couch and back at Sapphire, he wondered who he was to make Sapphire sighed like that.Even though she only considered him a friend, he felt quite possessive of her and didn't want to see any man who had ulterior motives around her.“Who is he?” He asked Sapphire, gesturing to the man who was still oblivious of their presence.“Matthew,” She said shortly.“Matthew…..?” He asked trailing off and Sapphire turned to look at him, she wondered what the man was asking. She moved her gaze to Claire, who was standing behind them.She saw a small smile on her lips, Claire wriggled her brow when her eyes met Sapphire's. Sapphire raised a brow at her and Clai
“You sound like you are proud of her,” Alexander said and Sapphire nodded her head.“You make it sound like it is a bad thing,” she said, tilting her head to one side.“You are insufferable!” He exclaimed and turned to the kids who were still at each other's throat. “Stop bickering, you would give your mom a headache,” he told them.“You don't hear me complaining,” Sapphire said and Alexander scoffed.“Are you encouraging them? To continue fighting?” Alexander asked and Sapphire rolled her eyes at the dramatic man.“Playing, not fighting, playing” Sapphire said and the kids moved closer to her before sitting beside them.“You should get up soon, we have been waiting for you all this while, you have been sleeping since yesterday,” Andrea mumbled and Sapphire turned to stare at the kids, Andrew nodded in confirmation.“Yeah, we were,” Andrew affirmed.“You have to learn how to do things without me, I am going to
“What?” Sapphire asked, staring at Alexander in surprise, how easily he could say something would cause the downfall of someone.“Do you want me to uproot it, turn it upside down or bankrupt it, anyone who works for me, just say the word,” he said nonchalantly, still smiling at her and she wondered how many people had crossed his way and he had ruined it while sipping his favorite wine.“What did he do to you? You hate him?” Sapphire asked and Alexander nodded.“Of course I do, you have no idea how much. He is rude and cocky, adding to that, he doesn't know his place,”“Those are the reasons?” She asked with a raised brow and he moved closer to her with a smile on his lips.“And he hurt you, that's unforgivable,” he finished his list with a proud smirk and Sapphire couldn't help the smile that appeared on her lips.If she had someone like Alexander years ago, then everything would have been alright, she may have traveled to Gisbo
Sapphire woke up and looked around and saw that she was in their bedroom, hers and Alexander's room.She moved her hand to her forehead and noticed that it was cold, she must have had a fever.The door opened and Alexander entered, he was holding a plate of fruit, he smiled when he saw that she was awake. He dropped the tray on the table where there was already food and sat on the bed.“How are you feeling?” He asked and she nodded but he moved closer to her and touched her forehead with the back of her hand before nodding in satisfaction.“You don't trust me?” Sapphire asked and Alexander shook his head with a smirk. “Why?” She asked with a smirk of her own.“You didn't use your words,” he stated simply and she scoffed.“That means I should not trust your answer too because you didn't use your words,” she stated and he nodded in agreement.“No, don't trust it,” he replied and Sapphire chuckled.“Idiot,” she sai
PRESENT THE ALDINES' MANSION Alexander was wondering why Sapphire wasn't back when he noticed that Oliver too was also missing from the group, he cursed and made his way towards the ladies restroom.He met Alicia on the way and held her by the hand, pulling her to a stop while still looking around.“What's wrong?” Alicia asked and Alexander turned to her and nodded.“Did you see Sapphire come this way, she said that she wanted to go to the restroom and she had been gone for the past thirty minutes,” He said and Alicia stared at him puzzled.“That isn't a cause for alarm, she could be doing her business there or getting away from those brats,” Alicia said.“Oliver had also disappeared, I remember that he left shortly after Sapphire did,”“It could be a coincidence,” she said unsure and he shook his head.“I don't believe in that,” He replied and started walking away.“So, are you going to enter th
Sapphire heard the beeping of a machine and was faced with darkness. She wondered what was happening and realized that she was closing her eyes.She tried to open her eyes even though it was as heavy as a lid, she could hear the sound of people going back and forth, the signature smell of a hospital and the bed that didn't feel like her bed.She was finally able to open her eyes and it was blurry for a moment before everything started to become clear. She blinked rapidly, trying to clear her vision.She was really at a hospital, she stared around and realized that it was the hospital room that she was admitted into when she sprained her ankle.“What is happening, Why am I back here?” She asked herself as she stared up at the ceiling. “Last thing I remembered was that I slept on my bed,” she kept talking and tried to sit up but fell back because of the intense pain she felt , her leg was in a cast but the pain she felt was in her stomach and lower
