Sam's POV:

Last night, I had the good sleep because I know Dylan is just watching me. Even we are far from each other, Dylan makes effort. I just realized that he called me after he saw me crying.

He wants to see me whether he is angry or not. I just want him to be here, especially tonight because he makes me feel special when I usually doubt my self. He boost my self-esteem. He is my confidence in believing that I can do things.

I want him here but I can never demand to him. Who am I to ask his presence here? He has other priorities. That is true because he did not call me again after our conversation last night.

I just want to hear his voice and see him. Even I am the least in his priorities, can he give me some of his time?

Dylan's POV

"I told you to stop investigating her! Don't send those pictures to me or you'll regret having me as your son!" I shouted to my supposed to be parents.

All my life, I just obeyed them. I did what they want me to do. They want me to become their perfect son, that is what I have become. I enrolled in different kinds of lessons, I studied very hard and end-up acing my exams and grades. I am always the top of my class and graduated with numerous of awards of excellence. I just followed their orders because I don't want to fail them. I just want them to be proud of me. Moreover, I hoped that they will spend their time with me but they did not.

They are too busy to have time for me. They just want to expand our business and become the richest of the richest people in the world. They value more the money they earn than being with me.

But telling me to end my relationship with Sam is the only thing that I will not do. I told them that Jessica and I broke the wedding because we don't love each other. However, they still insist to pursue the wedding because the merger of our family businesses is a great advantage for them.

Now that I have Sam in my life I will not let my parents interfere with my life.

"You're insane. You will regret that you chose Sam over us!" My supposed to be father, Anton said.

"Anton, whatever you do, I will prove to you that I made the right choice. Sam is the only one for me as a partner because she showed me a family should be. Unlike you guys." I sternly said. I just called him in his own name because he doesn't want to call him any names except for his name, for formality reasons. Well, I can't call him Dad either since I only saw him once in a while. He never reach out to me or call me if he is not around.

I heard my mother faking her cries in the line. She always do that when she wants me to do something for her, like piano and violin lessons. That doesn't work on me anymore. I stopped hoping that they will care for me, like I care for them before. I ended our conversation.

Then, I continue typing on my laptop. I snored because of the lack of sleep for the past days.

"Sir, I think you need to rest. You haven't slept for days." Will, my secretary told me.

"No, thanks. I am fine, Will. I don't have time to sleep." I told him politely. He just nod.

Sam's POV:

Jessy booked a hotel room for me and my siblings. She paid for the room because she wants me to prepare at the venue of the fashion show.

I brought my siblings, who are playing their toys that Dylan bought for them. They are having fun when I heard a knock on the door.
