" Jem, I am all right you just need to continue looking for a job I can help you find out if there is any job vacancies" Alexis replies

"okay"I said. I wanted to be a business woman but I know I will start from scratch working with a CEO company or sort.

Chloe's parents were done with tears as their only daughter just died, they had three children and Chloe was the only girl and last child.

memories of the times I spent with Chloe came back into my mind as I started crying but Ella was there to support me.

"but does Fred know about this what about Lucas"I asked Ella

"I'm sure Lucas wouldn't care"Ella replied me."I haven't phoned Fred"

"okay I will let him know about this after ceremony"I said
