On a bright and sunny winter day as Alyssa was staring out of the balcony window when her husband Noah Macari's Black Maybach pulled in the driveway. She was excited to see her Husband was home early so she ran down the stairs excitedly to greet her husband Noah when suddenly his sister Nancy Macari stepped out of the study in front of Alyssa and asked her "why was she was in a hurry"? Before Alyssa could speak the front door opened and Noah walked in with a indifferent look on his face as he looked at his wife Alyssa and then Nancy greeted her brother "Hello Noah, you're home early today". Noah greeted his sister with a smile and said "Grandpa Zach called me home early to prepare for a dinner party for a guest that arrived from abroad". Alyssa stood there without saying a word but confusion written all over her face. Nancy smiled at her brother and stepped aside so he could go up the stairs and get ready for dinner. Alyssa was not informed of this special guest from abroad and she felt the need to get some fresh air and walked out back to the Koi pond. Upstairs Noah Macari just came out of the shower and was getting dressed in a dark black suit with a nice dark gray undershirt made his dark hazel eyes shone and damp tousled black hair would make any woman stare in awe at him. Suddenly a loud shrieking scream comming from out back got everyones attention and everyone ran out back to see what what was going on. The Butler was pulling the beautiful actress Chloe, Noah's brother Braxton Macari's wife from the pond. Chloe was shivering from the cool winter breeze and being soaked from the water saying "Alyssa just tried to end my life why did she push me into the pond"? The maid was helping Alyssa out of the pond and didn't say a word. Alyssa looked up and saw Noah comforting Chloe his brother Braxton's wife and giving her his coat. While Noah was walking the hysterical Chloe inside to the warm mansion he quickly glared at his wife Alyssa and she stood there freezing and felt the maid ushering in go inside and warm up. Alyssa took a warm shower and when she got out Alyssa wrapped herself in her pink fleece bathrobe drying her hair on her way out to the bedroom to grab clothes from her closet. Noah was sitting on the bed and did not look her his wife in the eyes and said "old man Macari wants to see you in the study once you're dressed" then he stood up and walked out of the room. Alyssa looked at Noah's retreating back and said in a low voice "I didn't push Chloe into the pond". Noah stopped turned around and looked at Alyssa indifferently and turned back around and proceeded down the stairs. Once Alyssa was dressed in her warm pajamas she went down to the study to meet with old man Zach. When Alyssa walked into the study, old man Zach was sitting on a chair while Noah was standing near the doorway. Old man Zach Macari was furious and thew a book at Alyssa, which barely missed hitting her head and fell to the ground behind her. Old man Zach Macari yelled "I do not know why Noah married someone like you and who do you think you are throwing your brother in law's wife Chloe into a pond"? Old man Zach said to Alyssa "since you were never taught manners you will be taught in the Macari residence, you will kneel in this study until morning". Without another word old man Zach Macari opened the office window and let the winter breeze in and made the room cold with the breeze blowing in directly on Alyssa. Her pajamas did not keep the chill from reaching her skin she looked up at her husband Noah who did not say a word and suddenly the doorbell rang. Old man Zach said to Noah "our guest from abroad must be here let's welcome our guest and go eat" Noah walked out behind his grandpa without even glancing at his wife Alyssa and followed to greet their guest. When their butler opened the door stood a beautiful woman who was in her early 20's wearing a red haute couture dress, black coat, and her loose beach wave curls just screamed how she was from an influential family. Old man Zach greeted the woman "hello miss McCormick, long time no see". She stepped into the mansion and said to Zach "no need to address me so formally our family's have known each other a long time, just call me Nicole" with a bright smile. Nicole turned to Noah and went to give him a hug and said to him "long time no see and still as handsome as ever with a seductive laugh". Noah spoke to Nicole and said "long time no see miss McCormick". Nancy came running to the door and gasped and squealed "Nicole it's really you! It's been forever! Come let's eat dinner and let's catch up, I believe our cook as prepared someone your favorites from the past". Alyssa was kneeling in waiting for Noah to come and find out what happened, but he did not show up. Alyssa started to feel light headed and was shivering cold from the wind blowing in on her and her long wavy brunette hair was still damp from earlier and couldn't feel her knees she ended up passing out.
