Olivia's POV After the last scene we had for the day, I went back to my room to prepare for the party, but then I discovered I didn't pack any clothes for a party. " Janice, Kia get ready we're going to the mall". I knew only one mall that was closer to the hotel and would be opened at this time. My two assistants got ready and we headed over to the mall.I was directed to the VIP section of the mall, since I was VIP. I picked up a dark green dinner gown and was about to give to my assistant to hold when I heard a familiar voice. " If it's the price I already said I was paying". I crunched my eyebrows... I know that person. It was the junior director who always gets on my nerves when I was acting, Marina. I was about walking away, what they were doing here wasn't my business, but then I heard another familiar voice" I was really stupid". The voice sounded like the new actress who got casted with me for the biggest show that would air, Snow Fall Love, Rachel. Why did she ejust
Rachel's POVI stood by the corner of the counter watching the others enjoy the party. It was kind of nice, bit I was not really into socializing right now. " A margarita ". I said to the bartender who immediately started preparing my order."Here Ms". I gave him a killer smile and took the margarita, carefully sipping it in front of him. Relishing the sour taste of the lemon and lime in it. Just perfect from my mood right now. The bartender face flushed red, as he tried to avoid my gaze on him. I gave him a wink loving the way he blushed anytime our eyes met. Cute. That was one word for him. He was more good looking than most if the other guys in this party and really shy too. I was having fun playing with my male blushing bride before I felt a certain gaze on me, which felt like they wanted to tear me into pieces. Only one person looked at me like that, Lana. I rolled my eyes taking my gaze away from the bartender to where Lana was, and truly she was staring at me but her gaz
Rachel's POVDirector George Stone gave me a earful the following morning. How the hell did he even out?I was only gone for a few minutes and by the time I returned, he was already gone so I just retired back to my room.Someone must have seen me when I went along with Jake for awhile. The only problem now is that I was not sure who it was. Olivia or Lana?Because every since that day at the mall, Olivia behavior towards me became strange. She was always glaring daggers at me when she thought I wasn't looking and she always gave me a sweet smile whenever I looked at her. It was beyond creepy.Almost like the what happened to me the night if the party. That woman was talking to herself. I looked around the room that day and I saw no one else in that room but she was shouting, screaming at an imaginary person to leave her be. Could she possibly be mad?No... No, mad was a bit too harsh. Maybe she was a psychiatric patient, or something, but she was definitely not normal. " Darg
Rachel's POV" The Walker's has invited all main leads to their event this Saturday and I expect everyone of you to be there. Any questions?". Director George Stone asked as he closed the early morning meeting. It was finally over. All I pray now is that they should be no questions. Everything the man said was simple and easy to understand. But someone just refused to allow me celebrate in peace and raised up her hand. " Including the supporting actors? Like you know the non important ones like the third female lead? " Lana asked after the director asked her to speak. I rolled my eyes. " Does she know she's also a supporting actress? Second or third their still supporting actors". Marina whispered in my ear and I chuckled. Lana was no longer thinking anymore... The only thing on that girl's mind was how to annoy me, so how would she remember that she's also a supporting actress. " Ms Fareham..." "Andrew". Lana interrupted the director and I rolled my eyes again. " Excuse me?"
Rachel's POV" What about this one, he's nice and tall and... Em... Er, rich?" I said more like a question as I pointed at him. We couldn't see his face, but from his stance, I could tell he was good looking. We arrived at the Charity gala just about ten minutes ago and I was already set in finding guys that would be a match for Marina. I had already introduced her to a few guys at the party, some of which I don't even know myself. I smiled pointing at tall man standing beside the drinks section, he was talking to an elderly man and had his back to us. He looked rich. " How can you tell that he's nice?" Marina raised her brows at me, she said mockingly. So that was sthe only thing she caught out of everything I said about him? " Well... He doesn't look bad". I shrugged looking at him even more. I felt uncomfortable, so I turned back to look at Marina who happens to be glaring at me. She was looking at me like I had just said the dumbest thing in the world."For fuck sake Rach,
Ethan's POVI searched around the gala frantically, looking for only one face. The face of the girl that have been clouding my thoughts, even my dreams for the past few weeks. My fake girlfriend who I was so madly in love with, Rachel. " Are you sure she's here?" I asked Mark when I saw him coming back from discussing with Frederick Walker, the host of this event. " Yes boss. I stylishly asked the Old Walker and he told me that he invited all the main leads of Snow Fall Love go this event". Mark answered reassuring me. I took deep breaths to calm my raging nerves. I had to get my mind of Rachel, even if it was just for a little bit. " What about the Old man, how is he? " "Oh, my grandfather is fine. Just the usual complains of why I should come back to the family business and all, nothing much". Mark said with a shrug and I shook my head at him. Mark Walker the prodigal son of the Walker family and who also happens to be Fredrick Walkers o ky grandson, and my assistant. I had a
Rachel's POVMy eyes widened when I saw what David was about to do. He wanted to hit Marina!! Before I could do anything, the man standing beside Ethan had rushed to the front and held David's hands. "How dare you try to hit a woman?" He said angrily, protecting Marina from David's gaze before shoving his hands down.I felt a surge of gratitude towards the stranger, but it was quickly replaced by my own anger and outrage. How dare David try to hurt Marina like that?! I marched towards him, my heart racing with fury."You disgust me!" I spat, my hand raised before I even realized what I was doing. I slapped him hard across the face, the sound echoing through the room.David's eyes widened in shock, his cheek red and stinging. "You...I'll..." he started, but Ethan cut him off."What would you do?" He asked, coming to stand in front of me, glaring at David. His huge body hid mine completely, shielding me from David's piercing gaze. I looked around for Marina and found her staring at E
Rachel's POVMy head jerked to the side as I heard the bushes rustling. A man and woman emerged from behind the foliage, their clothes disheveled. The woman's garments were ruffled and slightly torn, while the man struggled to put on his pants as they took in the scene before them."Em..." The woman's eyes met mine, and she gasped in surprise. "Oh... Sorry, we didn't know anyone was here... Er... We'll just leave," the man said, holding the woman's hand and quickly leading her away from us.I recognized the woman as one of Olivia's assistants, who always accompanied her everywhere. After they departed, I turned my attention back to Ethan, finding him staring at me. The moment we shared had vanished, replaced by awkwardness."Ahem... Okay, I believe you" I said, attempting to dispel the uncomfortable atmosphere taking a step back. Ethan took a few steps back, scratching his neck nervously. We both kept silent enjoying the cool night breeze in the garden."The dress looks good on y
Rachel's POVNo words could explain how I was feeling right now, no words. After the kiss in the living room, I couldn't hold it any longer so I dragged Ethan up to my room, leaving the rest of my family members downstairs.We had a night... Well, morning of passion, and for the first time in a long time, I was felt at peace. Ethan and I lay on my bed, our bare bodies snuggled close to each other. "I never knew you were still a virgin." Ethan said calmly, his large hands stroking my long blonde hair. My lips pulled in a smile and I shrugged slightly. "There are still somethings you don't know about me". Ethan looked so shocked when he found out as if he had expected something different, while I was also shocked for another reason... Ethan was freaking good in bed!He had told me once before that he never had a girlfriend, so I thought I would be the one to lead since I had more experience. My lower body was a virgin but that didn't mean my mind or some parts of my body were either
Rachel's POV As I shut my eyes, the sounds of the wind blowing on the windpipes I placed at the corner of my window became more prominent, the sound of the road, which was meters from here, but I could still here it. My chest heaved up and down simultaneously as I forced myself to only think of those sounds and nothing more. Three days ago, my parents came to Ethan's mansion and demanded I leave with them and since then, I had been in the Nielson's mansion. But that was three fucking days ago! When the first day passed, I was like... Maybe Olivia took harder to catch, that's why I haven't heard anything from them. When the second day passed, my resolve started to weaken, but I still trusted Ethan. He couldn't possibly leave me for Olivia right? The woman kidnapped his niece! And then that day passed. Now this was the third day, I have no idea what to think anymore.I've tried everything freaking possible; yelling, begging God, sobbing, I even swallowed up my ego and my anger I
Ethan's POVIn less than a few hours, my plan worked. Olivia took the bait. I was right, Olivia indeed had more spies in my house and they immediately went to tell her everything I had said. Olivia probably got agitated and evaded her previous hiding spot, but that was the one thing in her plan she did wrong. Right now, I was standing outside her new hiding spot with Mark and Detective Williams. After I told Mark my real plan, he insisted we involve the police, just to make sure that Rachel's name was completely cleared. She was in an abandoned building owned by the Sangria's a few miles away from town and figured, of course, she'd use an abandoned house. " Are we sure she's in there?" Detective Williams asked, bringing out his gun from his pocket and steading it in his hands. Yup, I was sure. I nodded. The main reason because, I had her trailed her by John. I had John fixed at the outskirts of town because I knew Olivia wouldn't dare stay here anymore if she thought I was comin
Ethan's POVAs I watched Rachel leave with her parents, I felt a piece of my entire being leaving with her. Was I making the right decision to let her leave? Maybe I should have fought her parents about their decision so she would stay. But what if things went sideways with Olivia and then the latter comes after her? " Ethan,". Hannah called me bringing me out of my thoughts. " What's going on? I thought we already knew where Olivia was. Why can't we just go there and demand my son back?" My sister asked with tears in her eyes. How was I going to say this?" I don't know where Olivia is. " Marina's eyes almost bulged out of her sockets. " You don't know what now?" She screamed. Hannah also had a look of surprise on her face. " Brother..."I ran my tongue over my patched lips. " I don't know where Olivia is right now, but..." I added before Mark would say something which he clearly looked like he wanted to. " ... I know where she will be in the next few hours". Hannah's brows fu
Rachel's POVAs we paced outside the room the maid was kept in my heart kept beating loudly in my chest. Marina, Hannah, Mark and I kept our eyes glued to the door waiting for Ethan to come out of the room. Ethan went in few minutes ago, after I told them about my decision to not leave until Olivia's location is found. I want to at least know that I didn't ruin a little boy's life and then disappeared. " What the hell is taking him so long?" Hannah groaned desperately itching her neck and hands in irritation and desperation. " All he had to do was to kindly ask the damn lady where her accomplice or even master is, come on, just how hard is that? "I inwardly snickered. To Ethan that was very hard. He was a kind man, but that was until he was messed with. Talking kindly to that lady was like the hardest thing for him to do right now, but he had no choice. It's either that or he loses both his nephew, and his sister. Even I wouldn't be able to fill that void. The creaking sound of
Rachel's POVThere was no room for any 'buts'. Even if it was my life, these three people right here had more say in it than I did. I just shook my head at them and began walking backward. " This isn't fair. "I wasn't a kid, I could make my own decisions. But apparently, these three people here care more about me than I did myself, so whatever decision they made for me was right, at least in their eyes."Rachel ".My parents called after me, but I turned a deaf ear as I ran up the stairs and into my room, shutting the door loudly as soon as I got him. "Dargh!!!" This was all just so frustrating. How could they ask me to leave?Oh yeah, they ain't even asking me! They were commanding me to and I was to obey?" This parents of mine are crossing the line. " I muttered angrily to myself getting hold of a pillow and throwing it towards the wall. The worst part was Ethan was in on this too. " I want to protect you; I love you, Rachel, all fucking bullshit!" If the guy loves me as he p
Rachel's POVEthan looked as guilty as ever, so when Si... I meant my dad kept blaming him, it both looked and sounded like it really was his fault. "I'm sorry." He apologized with his head down. No, I was the only one allowed to blame him for reasons best known to me, no one else. My chest tightened and I shook my head, slowly stepping away from my mother. "It's not his fault." "How is this not his fault? All because of him you were exposed to such a dangerous woman!" My father refused to budge on his accusation. He keep a stern look and a finger at Ethan.Just seeing the way he looked so guilty... For fuck sake you're a man, deny the darn things. It wouldn't really even be called denial since it was not true in the first place. Lenora must have noticed my discomfort because she left my side and went to stand beside her husband. "Honey, it's alright." "We can't keep blaming Ethan until we hear the entire story." She said calmly but then she turned towards Ethan and her calm smi
Rachel's POV"Just how mentally and physically strong can a lady be?" I complained for the tenth time I as I opened the fridge grabbing a bottle of water from it.It's been two hours. Two fucking hours of beating the shit of whatshername but yet she refused to say nothing. How could a person be so loyal to another? The only good part of all this was that I get to beat the bitch who was strapped in a chair, and I would have enjoyed it also if it wasn't for the fact that we were running out of time. "So how's is your plan going?" Hannah said from behind me in a mocking voice.I turned to look at her with a tight smile. " Why not you have a go at her? Oh, I forgot you just came out of the room where the maid's kept. I should be asking if you got anything". I snapped back at her. For the last few hours, Hannah has just been looking for ways to make me feel guilty for her son, and what I hated the most was that it was working. "Can you both please just cut it? " Marina walked up to th
Rachel's POVI winced softly in pain and I climbed back up there stairs with Ethan following behind me. That darn bitch. Did s!he think I was just going to let her little minion almost kill me and just get away with it? No freaking way I burst the door opened and walked towards Hannah, collecting the phone from her hands." Why ah..."" You better listen to me Olivia and listen good. I will find you you damn witch and when I do, all hell would fucking break lose. If you think what you did to Lana was bad, just you wait and see or better yet feel what I'm going to do to you." You're going to wish for death, you would beg for it but I sure as hell wouldn't grant your wish you psychotic bitch! "I cursed ranting into the phone. " Rachel? You're with Hannah? " Olivia asked sounding surprised, but then the surprise in her voice wore off. " I can see, good luck finding me ". She laughed maliciously before ending the phone call. "Hey Olivia, Olivia!!!" I yelled into the phone, but it wa
