The entire crowd gasped at the same time. To make it look more real, Gabriel pulled her closer covering the gap between them. Valerie herself stood frozen in front of the crowd. Somehow, she was also at a loss for words.
His hands were wrapped protectively around her waist. Still stunned by the turn of events, Rina decided to take things to the fullest seeing she easily escaped humiliation.
“But.......I heard you just broke up with Stanley, the English guy last month. Tell me, how did you find this guy to act as your BOYFRIEND? ”
Filled with jealousy, Rina got up from her chair and threw some obvious questions at her. Her mission was simple, Valerie would not go home without facing the humiliation she faced because of her last ten years.
He yelled to no one in particular and fell to the cold ground. He knew that this day, he just fucked up.Meanwhile, In Her Apartment.Lionel took out a cold towel, placed it on her head and rubbed it. Olivia had been crying ever since she got home, somehow, he felt guilty and angry at the same time.“I promise, everything will be over. ” He whispered to her, laid her down and they slept..................Next Day.......A shining sun rose from the depth and up to the sky. Its rays striking through the glass window in their room. Alexa yawned, moved to the other side with the aim of meeting someone in bed.
‘On one condition, Alexa should not escape this suffering! ’ Her statement rang various times in her head. She stopped to look at her watch and sighed.Her life had already taken a bad turn, first she lost an important deal, fought with her manager and this news definitely will land her on suspension or most, let her go.“Since the tables are all for you, let us see if they will still be with you after they know you are a murderer ”Arya reached for her phone, pulled it out from her purse and texted an unknown number. At least working with people gave her some deep connections in the media.“How do you want the news to be delivered?”“Wait for
Their vision never left each other. Both ladies were trying to read each other's thoughts. On the other hand, Kristine monitored their eye movement and came up with a conclusion that they were not on good terms. Alexa's next statement broke the unending staring competition. “Can you just say what you want and stop all this mysterious words!” She calmly spoke. She had few seconds before she looses control of herself and barks crazy at her. If she hated her so much then she make it known to her rather than playing the white lotus game which was last season. Arya turned on the video with a tap of her finger and paused it halfway. Alexa held her fingers. That girl in the video was her but when was this taken,
Alexa outrageously screamed at her. Why was she the only one that thought she had the worse life on earth and others think she has the best.Her beauty was one of the kind she accepted, but that did not mean it did not have its own consequences. Her grades were good but that does not mean that she liked being called a nerd during her Hugh school.Everyone had to go through challenges to bring out the best in them and she faced her one with an open heart and she deserved the outcome of it.Her challenges were not as much as other's one, however, she went through and won over the challenges, now why was she envied?!“My life is not as simple as you think, as delicate as it appeared. Last nine years, I was almost drugged to be raped with, and that same n
Alexa spoke out with a trembling voice. She felt she was being judged to easily by the people who praised and adored her.“Even if you were to kill the president, I still would support you .”“I just don't get it. Where did the dagger come from?”That was what she was still worried about. Where there more people in the room or was it in her imagination? She obviously saw a dark clothing shouting the door and felt his presence yet she did not know who he was.“Her death was definitely not something that I can explain. I know I am suppose to feel happy now that she is dead but something does not feel right .”She paused when the door was opened by Gab
Felix repeatedly asked and stopped when Val collected her phone back.“Why were you so disrespectful?! Gosh!““Did you hear the way he talked to me? This is war! I need to find Alexa first so I can sure that nonsense of a thing that I am more superior than him a and deserve Alexa more than him.“Get the car ready! I can not loose to him!” Felix said to his assistant and they hurriedly dashed out of Valerie's house and into the car.Meanwhile, Somewhere in the west wing of California.Alexa sat down with her legs crossed and stared at the man gulping down his wine and pouring more into his glass cup intensively.
“She.............” She could not take another thirteen round of torture any longer and decided to speak up, even though she knew the consequences of revealing internal secrets, she preferred to betray them than face this torture. Maya vomited blood right from her mouth and little drops of blood sipped from her eye balls and trickled down to her neck. “He is back, Xizhao is back!” Her last words made her cough out blood and black out. He called in some physicians to check her body. “She is dead. Her heart was stabbed with some highly effective poison. ” “Take her out of here. she is useless to me! Get me a bowl to wash off her blood stain ” .................
She did not bother gazing at him, turned open the door and left. .................... “I have proof and announcement to make ” Was the new topic that trended on the internet with high ranking views. After the sudden death of Arya, the media had never allowed it to go down and would some how link it to Alexa. To her, it was getting so annoying and not normal any longer. She had to make a stop to it and free her name. She was finally able to decode the flash given by Cheng Lang yesterday, and so, her plan A was soon going to start. “Alexa, are you sure about this? The last time someone tried to convince the media, they went insane afterwards. I don't.......” Kristine held the wheels before stepping on the brakes. She adjusted the mirror to Alexa's view, sighed at the stubborn girl who just rolled the flash through her fingers. “There is no need to convince me. You have been at it since this morning and I am getting sick of it. I want to free my name!” “I.............” She stutter
Next Six Years, In the Wedding Hall.“I now pronounce you husband and wife ”The pastor announced with the whole crowd cheering and howling at them. Bunch of roses fell on Valerie's head while Gabriel put in her ring on her fourth hand.They had finally agreed to get married and now that was done, her best friend still hadn't arrived. She contacted her and told her of her wedding day yet she didn't show up.“You've been watching outside frequently. are you expecting someone? ”“Yes, Alexa promised she'd be here. Maybe she just lied to get me out of her phone, or she is just avoiding here cause you Ray is also here too ”“Oh that is true. Does he know? ” Gabriel whispered into her ears while taking her to the backroom. He closed her eyes and opened it with a surprised look. Valerie gasped and ran to Alexa and embraced her.“Happy wedding Valerie!” Alexa smiled. Her smile made Va
Meanwhile....Valerie jumped through all the messy snack nylons on the ground to the chair, laid her head on Gabriel's lap and pushed in some chips in his mouth.“Open my big baby!” She jokingly teased him while he munched on the single chips and then swallowed it. His eyes was concentrated on the document he was typing so as not to make mistake with the letters.The documents was all about shares of the LR corps being transfered to the young miss as compensation for the big boss's frequent behavior of ignoring her.“You are always working! When can you stop and focus on me for one day ”“I wished my dear but you know how the workload of the LR corps is. It is a busy company with branches opened up in different locations. Obviously, there is suppose to be some heavy workload. ”“Then why do you have to bear it all? ” Valerie's upset and sassy mouth resurfaced as she put away the chips along with th
Jack stared at his son confusedly. Just how much did this boy love her so much that he his such crucial truth from her. Anyway, no matter how long he thinks he can hide it, she would find out one day.“Ray, listen up. You have to let her know. She is your blood and she deserves to know. You can't keep her in the dark. Yesterday, she dropped off to see your mother. Did you know how guilty your mother felt when she saw Alexa's current position? ”“Lexa came to see me? Why did not tell me?!” He jerked up from the couch with his face angry.Jack smirked at his response. So under this arrogant mask, he still very much cared and looked after her secretly, so why then did he now avoid her? When he received a call from Ray's personal maid about how Lexa felt, his heart broke into tears and decided to talk some sense into his son.“You better let her know and stop all this. Once you lose her, I am not sure you'd be able to find someone
“Pick up the call Ray, you are scaring me!” She sobbed in her palms, repeated the phone call again, and got the same response. Her calls were not going through because he kept declining her calls.She was damn confused and sobbed harder. Weren't they clear on loving each other without the child? Why did he suddenly ignore her every day after since the death of their unborn child?!“Madam, maybe he is busy to answer the phone call. You can try later. ” Miss Naomi tried her best to give some comforting words. She herself found Ray's attitude quite suspicious too, what happened to the super couple?“Busy?! That is a lie. He keeps ignoring my call and avoiding me. What is wrong with him? He wasn't like this before. Ray, don't hurt me like this please ” Her brightly shining tears dropped from her eyes until her eyes turned red.Miss Naomi helped to clean off Lexa's tears and took her to the bathroom to have a bath. Whatever was
He told her, bent his back and raised her up. He wrapped her around his back and brought his hands to his front and saw blood.“Lexa, are you alright?!” His eyes became worried as more blood was seen from where she was seating tied with rope and more dropping. “What is going wrong?”“Ray, I don't know. Ouch! I.....” Alexa yelled with force. “The baby! Help!” She shivered in pain as Ray ran quickly shooting anybody that came in his way. He jumped into the helicopter and supported her in his arms and ordered Miles to fly the helicopter to the hospital.Within five minutes, they arrived at the hospital with Alexa bleeding quickly. He ran into the ICu room called for help and rollers came out from the room, pushing her to the theatre.The others came running to the hospital including Valerie. Good news that she was found and saved but now, she was bleeding to death. What a bad Luck. Along with Valerie came her broth
Khloe removed her sunglasses, smiled towards Lexa and together, they went to have a talk in the boxing ring.“I......have something to say to you ” Lexa started the conversation as the two women were not ready to talk to each other. They were rivals in love chasing after one boy, so it would be unlike them to talk to each other.“Let me go first. Alexa, I am sorry for what I have done to you. I hated you so much because I was blinded by fake love. Ray And I have been childhood sweethearts and even dated for two months before I moved with my Uncle to the US. To be frank with you, I was jealous! I called you so many names all with fact that, you were better than me ”“I recall the day we officially met and you introduced yourself as his wife. I was so damn jealous that I was about to strangle myself. I did not know Ray would move on without me and even ignored our years of love, or I thought that he loved me ”“I fo
“He is associated with the underworld and many of his life history is a mystery. It is too dangerous. If you live me, I promise to make you happy for the rest of your life ” He tied his bleeding wrist with the table cloth.“Felix, are you somehow deaf?! Okay, Ray is not worthy of me, neither would you be. Let me put this straight to you, I don't see you as a man. I can't like you. ”“Why! Why! tell me! I am sure that cunning Ray has bewitched you into loving him. I know a cleanser that could relieve you off the bondage. I just ask you to love me back, Lexa!” He continued to stress on the matter.So all this while he had been with Alexa, she never even for once fancied him, has he been living in fantasy all this while? The truth was bitter and yet, he rejected it and blamed Ray for everything.Why won't he blame him? He was the main culprit why he could not get to Alexa. Every of his schemes to have her all failed and now th
“You are so naive! That is not how a relationship works, Valerie ” Gabriel snapped back at her, pushed her away from his view and moved to the exit of the room. “It requires trust and love. Just you knowing your feelings doesn't count. Feelings go and come which doesn't mean that you truly love the person!”“I know I am a naive stupid girl at love still I know what I feel when I see it. You are the one I like and I am sure of that ”“What of your other seven EX. Is that what you also told them too?”“Maybe I did. That is not the point, you're the true one as far as I know, don't ignore my feelings for you, please ”“Can't you get it?! Miss Davies, dinner would be served soon I suggest you wait in the dining room ” Gabriel emotionlessly answered her. He was done bickering with a girl who had no knowledge on relationship.“Fine! I don't want to have your dinner! You know wh
That made more sense. It was all Alexa's idea to make him free today to spend time with her, what a good babe! But, visit his parents? Won't that be too fast? They weren't even dating yet, if she came with him, it would make their relationship more complicated.Gabriel pulled his brows up with question marks written all over his head. Did she just say she wanted to see his parents with him? Was she thinking well? Or did she hit her head on something before coming out?“Why that look? I like old people ” She lied with her nose in an upright position. She hated old people, they over stressed her too much however for Gabriel, she was willing to try to like them.“You sure? My parents are not that old. Then if you say so, let us go. You just have to be careful of their questions. ” He reversed out from the lawn, drove down the road to the countryside.Hours later, they arrived at a duplex house covered in grasses and flowers with a little
