It has been almost a month since Gemma was discharged from the hospital. Gemma suffered miscarriage and depression. Until now, Gemma is still moody. The girl who was always cheerful and always has a smile on her face, slowly became like a sad and depressed girl.

Since Gemma was out of the hospital too, Harry decided to move to Cheshire, so he could continue to watch over his sister. Harry built a small branch company in Cheshire and Harry decided to work in that small branch of company he built here in Cheshire. Harry doesn't want to make any regrets again. He wants to take full care of his mother and sister, just like what he promised to his father.

And because of that promise and everything that was happening too, Harry seemed to forget one important thing.

"Harry,"

Taylor placed her arm around Harry's shoulders, who was sitting on the sofa, reading the daily newspaper. Harry turned and smiled at his wife.

"Good morning, babe." Harry said as he grabbed Taylor's hand and pulled her close to him. Taylor sat next to Harry, leaning her head on his sturdy shoulder.

"Are you busy today?" Taylor asked, playing with Harry's fingers as she interlocked her fingers with his.

"Why?" Harry asked, raising an eyebrow. Taylor shook her head.

"Nothing. It's just, it's been so long since we spent time together alone. You're too busy with work or. . ." Taylor held her breath before saying, "Gemma." She said with a very forced tone.

Harry paused for a moment. His hands were placed around Taylor's shoulders. Harry briefly kissed Taylor's forehead as he said, "I love you, so much. You know that, right? " Taylor nodded her head.

"I love my family too. Mum and Gemma. I once vowed to Dad to look after them, making sure they're always safe and happy." Harry takes a pause before bowing his head.

"However, what happened to Gemma a month ago made me realize that I hadn't fully kept my promise to Dad. I can't keep Mum and Gemma safe as they should be. And I regret that very much." Taylor lowered her head, understanding where this conversation was going. Harry looked up and turned his head. A faint smile appeared on the young man's lips. His hand reached for Taylor's chin, lifting it up slowly so that his green eyes could meet Taylor's blue eyes.

"I don't want to have make regrets in my life anymore. I love you. I love Mum and Gemma too. But for now, Gemma really needs my full attention. I hope you can understand that. " Harry briefly kissed Taylor's lips.

"I love you." Harry said.

Usually, when Taylor hears those three words come out of Harry's mouth, it'll usually make her heart melt and flutter. But now, for some reason, when Taylor heard those three words, it just made her feel anxious inside. All the butterflies that she always had inside of her died and turned into dust, and somehow, she doesn't know they reason behind it.

"So what do you want now, Gems?" Harry asked her sister gently, while putting Gemma's dinner plate on the small bedside table beside her bed. Gemma shook her head.

Her joyful face that used to be caked and powdered on with make up, is no longer to be seen. She seemed to be losing herself and her life. And that was because of a young man named Samuel.

Not much is known about Samuel at this time. Samuel just disappeared. In fact, according to a source of Harry's trust, the company that Harry initially trusted as a company led by Samuel, made a different statement. Samuel doesn't have a position in the company. He is no longer there, Samuel resigned. Harry doesn't know where he is or what he's doing now.

Harry sighed. "Gems, you torture everyone if you keep this up. Haven't you seen Mum? She always thinks about you. She's sad because of you. If you love her, try to get up and live your normal life."

Harry didn't know how often he had advised Gemma. And as for Gemma's arranged marriage, it had to be canceled. Gemma refused the arranged marriage. Every time Anne or Harry would discussed it, Gemma would be hysterical. And from there it was concluded that Gemma wasn't ready to open a new page again, with any man.

"Sam. . ."

His name just flowed out from Gemma's mouth. Harry stared at his sister's blank stare, wondering what's going on in Gemma's mind right now, but Gemma rarely talks nowadays. The only word that she would often say was the name of the man who had left her, Sam.

"Forget that bastard. He made you this way. Do you remember?" Harry said sarcastically. Gemma shook her head weakly.

"Sam. . ."

Gemma said his name again. Harry had completely lost his temper already. Harry rose to his feet and tried desperately to hold back his emotions that could've overflowed.

"Gemma, listen. Forget that son of a bastard! You're much better without him. He's just a bastard that you doesn't deserve you." Harry emphasized every word he said. Gemma looked closely at Harry. From the corner of his eye, she looked scared. Gemma grabbed the pillow beside her and hugged the bolster. She was definitely scared at her brother's words.

Harry was aware of his sudden attitude towards his sister, he paused for a moment before closing his eyes and breathed heavily. Harry opened his eyes again and still found Gemma's fearful expression.

"I'm sorry I scared you," Harry tried to grab Gemma's shoulder, but Gemma brushed his hand away harshly. Harry sighed up. It's his own fault that he can't control his emotions right now.

"Hey,"

Taylor turned her head to hear someone's voice. On this quiet afternoon, Taylor was sitting leisurely by the pool, she had her legs dipped down on the pool while she was feeling the calming air of the city of Cheshire.

Taylor smiled thinly to find out who greeted her, it was Adam. Adam walked towards Taylor, before finally sitting right next to Taylor, as he joined in and dipped his legs into the pool, his legs swinging back and forth, making the water inside the pool slosh around.

"What are you doing here all by yourself?" Adam asked.

"Looking for some peace and quiet." Taylor answered calmly. Adam chuckled.

"Yes, I understand you. I should've met you sooner, so that I can warn you about the Styles' family life. If I met you sooner, I would've told you that being a part of this family will completely make you insane." Taylor chuckled at Adam's words.

"Apparently, your words aren't completely wrong."

"I've never been wrong." Adam said as he chuckled again. Taylor smiled thinly, staring at the calm pool water.

Taylor couldn't stop thinking about Harry. Taylor felt like she and Harry were being parted away from each other. Yes, they were in the same house physically, but emotionally and mentally, she felt like he wasn't there. It was like they were falling apart, and Taylor hates that feeling.

Adam glanced over at Taylor and he could see the look on her face. She must be having a serious problem. Adam knew that Taylor wasn't the typical woman who would tell all of her problems to everyone, especially to Adam since she just met him not too long ago.

"I don't think you know, but many people say that they want to join and become a part of the Styles. But in truth, they didn't know how difficult it was to become a Styles. In fact, sometimes I wish I was born or raised by another family." Taylor turned to hear Adam's words. Adam stared straight ahead.

"Since my childhood, my life wasn't as normal, the same goes with Harry. We lose the attention of our own parents and we would always be the center attention of others. It feels strange. We're experiencing the pressure. And there's a rule in the Styles family that whenever a boy was born, he must become the heir of the company."

"Unfortunately, Harry and I weren't born too far away. I'm just three years older than Harry. But still, to become the leader of the company, the age doesn't matter. Therefore, since childhood, Harry and I were both forced by our parents to study business. We were friends, because of that, we were at odds. We compete and we seem to forget that we were relatives. We were just too busy competing with each other. But now, the difference is, I've lost. " Adam chuckled, but Taylor could catch the sadness in his face.

"Competitions are really stupid. In fact, I still remember, when my parents asked me to hurt Harry and I did it. It was stupid of me, I know. And until now, I still regret that to this very day."Adam bowed his head. Taylor suddenly remembered one thing. Yes, Harry once said that Adam had beaten him to death. That made Harry afraid when Taylor was near Adam, he was afraid that he might do the same thing to her.

After a while of listening, Taylor finally spoke up amidst the silence.

"Um, Adam, why do you want to be ordered like that?" Taylor asked. Adam turned to look at her and raised an eyebrow.

"That's my stupidity and foolishness. I'm afraid that my parents will punish me first if I don't do whatever they asked me to. They love to lock me in the room. I hate being treated that way. Therefore, that's why I did that."

"Why do your parents want you to hurt Harry?" Taylor asked again.

"Because they know that Harry has more potential than me. To be honest, I'm not even interested in business at all. That's why I didn't join the Styles Enterprise. " Adam said as he looked back straight ahead. Taylor raised a brow.

"Didn't you work for your father's company?" Taylor asked.

Adam shook his head. "Nope. Now, I work as a music composer. I make songs for several artists. But yeah, of course I don't use my real name. "

"Are you kidding?" Taylor asked incredulously. Adam chuckled before shaking his head.

"Of course not. I'm serious. That's the reason why you see me anywhere and anytime. Because my work time isn't regulated. I'm free to work as I wish. " Taylor still looked at Adam in disbelief.

Adam turned to Taylor and smiled faintly. "But never mind. What's important now is that you have to–" Before Adam could continue on what he was about to say, someone suddenly cleared his throat which made Taylor and Adam both look back.

And they both saw Harry Styles was standing in front of the glass door with his green eyes flashing at them, interrupting Taylor and Adam's conversation.
