"Your grandson married the woman I was to marry. Do you think this is okay?" he asked and Samuel almost cursed. What was their obsession with this Emma girl. "You too are obsessed with that Emma Girl?" Samuel asked.

"Should that be your concern? I don't think I would let this go. You should know how much evidence I have in my hands that can bring you down," Daniel threatened. "Are you threatening me?" Samuel asked darkly.

rage. He had thought he would never have to go this far with his grandfather. But for the sake of Emma, for the sake of their unborn child, he would do whatever it took to protect them, no matter the cost. Meanwhile, in the opulent office of Samuel Madison, the patriarch of the Madison family, a tense atmosphere hung in the air. The old man sat behind his massive mahogany desk, his brow furrowed in a deep scowl as he
