Thinking about leaving the suspense for at least, two days 🤭. Thanks
Loverina was still inside the car when she spotted Jayden at the door entrance. She noticed different breeds and body-shaped girls drooling over him. Trying to touch him or take pictures with him. With a disgusting stare, she rolled her eyes, seeing how he was even smiling back at them. Not a full smile but, he did it to look more handsome.‘Rubbish!’ she screamed in her thought. Then scoffed and looked away. She certainly did remind herself not to think that she was jealous. While getting out of the car, something happened. As Jayden was climbing down the front staircase, well, not more than five stairs, a girl next to him slipped and almost fell so, being the lady’s men, he caught her. Loverina folded her hand into a fist. The urge to slap the girl was growing, and she didn’t even realize how long she has been standing at a spot, which made it impossible to shut the door. She was just there, glaring at the stupid scene she was forced to watch. Worst was when the lady turned in her
“Loverina!” He called her by her name and at that moment, her soul left her body. She had thought he wouldn’t be able to recognize her. “Are you not going to say anything? And why do you look different? Where have you been? Like, how did…” he didn’t finish his question when Loverina turned back and started to run away without stopping once and the worse was, she wore heels.Eric immediately followed. She missed him too, but can’t stop. She can’t even glance at him or say anything. They have met at the wrong time and place. If Jayden was to find out about it. He might even kill Eric. It scared her so much. Eric, on the other hand, wasn’t giving up. He kept chasing her, and their running was beginning to gain attention. Loverina rushed to where a lot of people were gathered and got lost in the crowd. Seeing Eric was finding it difficult to spot her, she immediately ran up the stairs.Opening a room in front of her, her lower jaw dropped, and she turned her back. “I am sorry. I swear. I d
Jayden put his hand on her back, pulling her closer, making sure there was no space between them. He deepened the kiss so hungrily.Loverina suddenly came to her senses. She wanted to escape and tried to break the kiss when Jayden stopped and raised a brow at her.“What is the problem and why did you stop?” Jayden asked.“Someone might come in.” She answered, looking at anything but not meeting his eyes. She couldn’t tell if she was scared or just feeling weird about the whole thing. Truly, the other couple they caught might just be in the same situation. Craving one another. Grabbing her hands and closing the space again, “Who cares? After all, I am doing naughty things with my woman. If they can catch me kissing some girl, why then should I hide when with my woman? Did you not see those in the other room?” He asked with a serious tone. Loverina was blushing until he mentioned how about the other women he did the same things with. It made her remember the kind of things he does with
Loverina rested her eyes on the mirror above the sink. She took a good look at herself. Her real face was nearly visible again. Letting out a deep breath, she started to notice all the changes. From her body to the clothing she had on. Before, she couldn’t afford to eat twice a day and had skinny body and bony cheeks. How time did fly in a very short period. Her world changed overnight.She turned on the tap to wash her hands when the door was pushed opened and she was forced to look at the intruder.“Seems like you love it in here.” Jayden said dryly. “You didn’t pee?” He questioned and Loverina choked to her saliva. Was he interrogating her? She found his gaze and, he was checking out the toilet, it caused her to cough even more, “If you used it…” Loverina interrupted.“I didn’t.” She said honestly.Jayden was calm. He said nothing and just walked pass her, to the sink. Loverina didn’t leave immediately, she stayed back for a while, wondering why he didn’t say anything.“My parents
Time was going so fast and soon, Oscar was called out to address the guests. His personal assistant and bodyguards wanted to help him but, he signaled them to give him space.“Good evening everybody. It is of a great privilege to have each and every one of you here to celebrate the final celebration of the Tribeca Film Festival with us. I'm sure most of you tagged along with your friends, and I hope you are enjoying it so far. Honestly, today won't have been this fun if not for you. Tonight is a reminder of how fortunate we are to be a part of this vibrate community. I am certain we are fans of movies. Well, I pity those who aren’t. You sure are missing a lot.” He joked with a funny expression, which got the audience to laugh.He continued, “despite that, we are grateful to have you here in our midst and hear us brag about our favorite movies and characters.” And people laughed even more, “Movies have always been more than just entertainment. And I'm honored to share today with you.”
Jayden broke the kiss with Bianca, as it suddenly felt weird. It wasn’t like him. He doesn’t have any woman, yet, it seemed like he was cheating or guilty of something. Bianca first raised her brows, wondering if she had done something he didn’t like. Not giving a response, she continued, and Jayden couldn’t take it anymore.“Stop!” He said, and pushed her away. Not knowing whether he did that out of anger or something else. It just felt odd. Unacceptable for some reason.“What’s wrong?” She asked, coming closer to touch him with concern written all over her face.Jayden shook his head. He was certain he wasn’t feeling guilty because of how he locked her father up. He honestly gave no two fucks about it. Bianca has always been his slaying sex mate. But why, then, did he feel strange?“It’s nothing. It should be a slight headache because of the noise and stress.” He lied and turned to leave, but was stopped after taking four steps forward.“Is this because you don’t fancy me anymore?
As Jayden reached, he quickly pushed the door open to see Alexis trying to take a glass cup from Loverina. He stepped closer to get a better look at Loverina.Her face was flushed, with a pinkish hue around her nose and cheeks. She was sitting on the floor, her hair messy and her mascara smudged, nearly ruining her face. It was obvious she has been crying.“What is the meaning of this?” he asked. Loverina turned to meet his gaze.“You found me too,” Loverina chuckled, covering her face as a blush spread over her cheeks.Ignoring her giggles, Jayden picked her up and gently laid her on the bed.“You look double,” Loverina mumbled playfully. Using her fingers to point the two places she could see him at.“That’s because you drank too much alcohol,” Alexis said, stepping in to help Jayden put Loverina to bed.“If you care so much, then am I not supposed to be enough for you?” she slurred, her words sloppily woven together.Jayden and Alexis exchanged confused glances.“What are you sayin
Alexis sat next to Eric. The moment he turned and saw her, a small smile appeared on his face. He wasn’t even sure if he felt relieved or, he was just glad someone he knew was near.“Where have you been?” He paused to check the next seat after Alexis’ but saw it empty, “I thought you were coming along with a friend. I saw your text. Or, did I read the message wrong?” He whispered, having a confused facial expression. He whispered because, he didn't intend to disturb the others around them that were so focused on the movie.“Maybe next time. Something came up.” Her eyes were fixed on the movie after hearing gun shots. But she did well to whisper back.“There is something I wish to…” Just then, a woman from the back interrupted.Frowning the woman started, “Shhh… You can have your chat after the movie. Don’t ruin this for us.” Her voice was a bit loud, and it caused attention at their direction. Alexis lowered her head so they don’t see her face.They felt embarrassed and didn’t utter a
“Can I open the window?” Loverina asked. She wanted to feel the night breeze against her skin. “Please, wait a second. Let me turn off the air conditional and open the window.” The driver spoke while already acting towards what he had just said.His eyes were still on the road. He stretched his hand to locate the ‘a/c’ button, and Loverina watched in amazement from the back. She was impressed to see the level of experience he has in driving that he didn’t even need to look for it. He could tell the exact switch while his eyes are still fixed on the road.He opened the windows and then, did a quick turn to Loverina, “Is this okay? Is there anything else you want?”Loverina smiled back and nodded her head.Not long after that, she was looking out the window when she saw a familiar figure. Even the clothing seemed to be the same thing. Loverina was tempted to call out as deep down, she could swear it was Alexis.‘It cannot be her, right? It’s too late for Alexis to be out in the dark. A
After what took forever, Alexis let the cat out of the bag. “My parents have been calling for me to return home. Of recent, I got a call from my dad, and he sounded it like a warning. I already told them i would, once the event comes to an end. So, by Monday morning, I would be on my flight heading back. I was emailed the prebooked flight and time. And you know, i miss home as well.” Loverina who was first disappointed, accepted fate and nodded. Her eyes got teary as she began to get emotional. Alexis had been a true friend since they met. She closed her eyes, imagining the boredom and loneliness ahead. It scared her!“I will miss you dearly.” Loverina replied after she sensed Alexis wanted her to say something on it.“I will too. My sister from another mother.” Alexis tapped her on the hand and chuckled, trying to suppress the urge to cry.“Okay. So we have just two days left. Today is Saturday.” Alexis nodded.“I will miss you.” Alexis repeated and hugged Loverina.Grandma Clara he
Loverina waited at the living room. it was past ten and Jayden wasn’t back yet. She approached her grandma’s room after feeling too bored.“I overheard your voice.” Loverina remarked as she stepped in.“The servants here are too nice.” Grandma Clara praised as she beckoned on Loverina to come closer. “What is wrong my baby girl, you don’t look too good. Did something happen?” she inquired.Loverina had a lot to say. She wished it was possible to tell about all of it. But, she didn’t want to. She felt at some point, she would be able to fit in properly with her new life and forget the former life.“Boys problem? Is it about you and Eric?” Loverina lowered her gaze. She didn’t want to say anything that would lead to more lies.“It should be about Jayden, right? You are falling for your colleague. Jayden seem like a nice guy but then, think about Eric. He visited me every single day at the hospital. He would keep me company for hours and sometimes brought food. Also, you two have been to
A wave of anger filled him inside out. The urge to throw things around and yell had to be suppress as he shut his eyes and took in a deep breath. Knowing the woman in front of him and what she was capable of, scared him even more.“I cant do this anymore.” He mumbled, clutching both hands into a fist.Margaret furrowed her brows. She got a bit confused as he wasn’t specific. But she hoped he wasn’t talking about reporting her to the police. He knew too much about her.“I don’t get you!” “About us.” He demonstrated with his hand, “I cant do this anymore. Go met another dude, I’m tired. You cant completely take over my life and still hurt me like im just a toy thing.”Margaret scoffed as she couldn’t believe what was happening. She closed the gap between them, looking up at him, “I still don’t understand what…” Thomas interrupted, “I saw and have heard about your new partner. I saw you kiss him some days back at the parking lot close to…” he broke down, sniffing and trying to control h
Oscar's jaw tightened, and he clutched his hands into fists. It wasn't visible to Margaret, though. She maintained a sinister smile, and it irritated him even more. He was aware of his mistakes, but Margaret was his worst. And also causing Jayden to hate him. “Are you going to give me the money or not?” She asked, suddenly looking serious.It fluctuated from an angel's face to that of a female devil. Oscar let out a sigh. “Margaret, I didn't say you won't get it. The thing is, just last week, you wanted three million dollars.”“Yes, I know that. I've exhausted that already. Don't make me wait.” Her tone changed, and she stressed her last sentence.It sounded more like she was getting pissed off, which Oscar didn't want.“Fine. How much do you need?” The question slipped out, causing him to regret almost immediately. His question resonated like an open cheque.Margaret grinned and leaned closer to him. She whispered, “Ten million.” “Huh!?” He exclaimed. Maybe he heard wrong. Not lik
As Jayden entered Oscar’s office at the company, he met an old man glaring at him furiously. Jayden got closer to the desk and Oscar right then, threw first a newspaper he held in his left hand, then the second one came after.“What is this I'm seeing?” Oscar shouted on top of his normal voice, causing him to cough a bit, clearing his throat. He must have forgotten he wasn’t young anymore.Feeling for the old man, his secretary, in a cheerful manner, tried to calm him down. “Sir, er hm, you know, you need to take things easy. Shouting isn't good for…” Albert was yet to finish his sentence when Oscar interrupted, about losing his temper.Oscar’s face was as red as tomatoes juice.“Get lost now! He is my son and I can shout at him in whichever tone I want!” “I… I… I’m sorry.” He stuttered his words, hurrying to the door, as well as turning to beg at almost every step taken. Irritating Oscars the more.“Get the fuvk out of my office!” Oscar finally snapped.It felt like he was diverting
“I am Vivian the housekeeper.” The middle-aged woman who looked like she was the senior staff said with a bright smile, “And we are here to serve.” Now, she mentioned, pointing at others.Their clothing was of two colors, black and white. Well ironed. They did put in so much to put up an impression.It was a house, not hotel, they didn't need to suffocate themselves in sure a way. But then, it was their job anyway. Loverina knew if it were her, she would do more than them. First impression matters, right? Loverina wasn't too comfortable. Guess Jayden had become used to having so many servants around.The staff offered to help tour around the house. Though, those for the kitchen and outside left already. And grandma Clara kept arguing that she was strong enough to roll the wheelchair herself. She didn't want to miss anything. But Loverina insisted on pushing it herself. Meanwhile, grandma Clara couldn't bring herself to believe that the house she was exploring belongs to them.It was
Eric saw how she snubbed him and tears rolled down his eyes as he gave himself to the men who were dragging him. Not once did she turn to him. She made him look like a crazy person. It was at that moment he noticed the mockery stares and phones being pointed in his direction. He lowered his face as he felt ashamed. The beating he got from trying to get Loverina was nothing compared to the ache in his heart. He didn’t even know what was taking over him, the feeling of being rejected publicly or that of rage. Before his very eyes, she allowed Jayden to put his hand on her waist, just near her ass cheeks. It was a message from Jayden, and he understood the meaning.They threw him out of the hospital. Passersby gave him a weird look. Someone being kicked out of a hotel would be considered a psychopath. And the only scene he wouldn’t get over was seeing how Loverina smiled and walked away like she didn’t know him.“So because I am not rich? So this is what it is about?” He asked himself in
Eric from afar spotted four men, dressed in black suits, standing close to the entrance of Grandma Clara' ward.Two were standing about three steps away from the entrance. Then the other two stood just in front of the door.Still determined to get his answers from Loverina anyhow, he approached, making an attempt to pass through when one of the bodyguards stopped him by stretching out his hand in midair.“I'm sorry, but no one is allowed to pass except for hospital staffs,” the man replied in a scary tone.Immediately, Eric decided to play along. What the man said gave him an idea. He smiled back at the man, sounding more confident.“But I am a doctor here,” He spoke causally.The bodyguard scanned him from head to toe. The shoe even looked wore out. Under his armpits, his polo was dammed with sweat. He looked like a homeless young man.Being professional, the man suppressed the urge to burst into laughter. He knew exactly what the young man was trying to do.Eric thought he caught the
