The clock’s hands struck midnight yet the man on the bed remained in the same position with the unsealed handwritten love letter in hand, completely lost. The last line of words on the paper made his heart beat ten times faster than it normally would."... It's crazy Noah that I've known you for what? less than two months? How did you do it? How do you make me fall for you so badly? I see the way you look at me... It’s different. I can’t hold this question back any longer Noah...Is this feeling mutual?.. "Lola’s confession letter was short, straight to the point and its words were filled with so many sentiments that threatened to drive him to madness with bafflement.“What's this Lola?." Noah muttered helplessly as he felt his heart squeeze in pain. How was this possible? How could Lola have loved him?"No...no." Noah shook his head sideways in disbelief and let the letter slip from his hands as stood up from the bed swiftly, taking hurried steps backward. A person who loved you wo
Kings Entertainment HeadquartersCEO’s Office.The camera had been put away by the media team as well as the rest of the recording devices that had been set up for the day. Richard King glanced at the watch on his wrist impatiently and then around the still-busy room. “Thanks for taking the time to accept this interview CEO King. “A lady in a blue blouse and blazer said as she walked up to him and flashed him a grateful smile. Richard nodded and stood up from his seat. “It’s my pleasure. Extend my greetings to Lucy, will you?.”“I will sir.” The lady agreed a bit surprised that he was leaving so soon. She had fought for the opportunity to be the representative sent by Lucy to interview Richard Kings because she adored this man and had a secret crush on him. “Are you leaving already? I hoped we could discuss some things regarding the interview over lunch.” She asked hoping he could stay longer.Richard frowned. Over lunch? He had only accepted this interview because he owed Lucy, the
The roads leading to Dew Square seemed to stretch on with no end in sight for the man in the backseat of the car which was driving in absolute silence. Williams had given in to his fate and no longer bothered his boss about the meeting or their flight.The DNA test result was still clenched tightly in Richard’s hands. The realization that Maria had been pregnant at such a difficult time in her life almost drove him insane. That single fact hurt so deeply that he momentarily forgot that she had been married to Shane Coker not too long after she had disappeared. Everything suddenly began to make sense and still made no sense at the same time. She had been carrying his child for goodness sake! How could she have had the heart to hide not only herself from him but also their child?~The two women stared at each other for a long time in the living room. They were both standing, one with short blonde hair and a proud lifted chin as she looked around the little room and the other woman with
“That won’t work this time, Maria. I’m not leaving this place. Not until I get all the answers that I need. So you’d better start talking.” Maria’s lips trembled as she pressed them tightly together and crossed her arms against her chest to contain her emotions. Now was not the right time for this. She did not have the strength to stand against this man. For the first time since he walked in, she noticed his unusually disheveled appearance and swallowed hard to keep the tears that threatened to fall contained. Deep down, Maria that she was not the only one who had suffered extensively from the incident twenty-three years ago. This man had also had it tough. Having to live with such heartless family members was indeed pathetic.No matter how perfect their relationship had seemed to be, they were both simply unlucky. Maria let out a deep sigh and then asked. “Coffee or Tea?.” Hearing her unexpected question, Richard raised an eyebrow. “Coffee.” He responded immediately, surprised tha
“What’s up with this sudden interest in eating out?.” Aria asked grumpily as she looked around the busy restaurant where Many other customers were seated and having their afternoon lunch.Lola resisted the urge to roll her eyeballs at her friend. “I’m doing you a favor alright? You should take a rest from cooking all the time.” She declared then waved at a waiter in a corner to come over to their table, then she pointed out what dishes they would like to have from the menu.“Well, I’m not complaining,” Aria mumbled. “I like cooking because I enjoy eating with just you.” She added with a pout.Lola laughed. “Alright, alright. We are here already and we can’t go back .. so let’s just enjoy the food and try not to ruin the mood. Thank you.” They watched as their lunch was served and started to eat immediately after. “So what’s the plan now?.” Aria asked as she straightened her back while looking at Lola meaningfully.“Plan?.” Lola repeated with a raised eyebrow. “Yes.. we have no job an
“What?!. Why would you do that?.” Lola’s face was flushed with both mortification and anger as she looked up at Noah with accusing eyes. Her little wooden box was so precious to her that she let no other person do as much as peek into it, not even Aria was allowed to open it. So how dare he?!.Noah raised an eyebrow, secretly enjoying her distress. “That’s no way to thank me for bringing your little box all the way here.” He said trying not to chuckle at the various manifestations on her face which he found funny. “But still..” Lola muttered with a frown, she felt wronged. He had indeed done her a favor by bringing it over but it was no excuse to invade her privacy.“What?.” Noah questioned and leaned forward, a proud grin on his face. “Want to say something?.”Lola swallowed as her breath hitched. He was way taller and his bent posture made his ruffled hair fall to his handsome face. Noah’s eyebrows were full and bristly and His dark eyes held a glint of mischief in them.Suddenly a
“Aria Davis,” Noah repeated. His brows furrowed as he maintained steady eye contact with Tyler while thinking deeply. He had never really liked Aria, but then... “What motive could Aria have possibly had to sabotage a love letter? It doesn’t make sense.” Noah declared and leaned back on his office seat.Tyler shrugged and reached out to pick up a snack from the servings on the table delivered by the secretary on his arrival. “Maybe she has a crush on you or something.”“Not a chance. She loathes me.”“Well never say never. You never know with these women. Complicated creatures they are, every single one of them.” Tyler insisted with a frown. “Aria might have been like “I can’t have him... so you can’t have him too..” He sang while flipping an imaginary long hair back. Noah scoffed at the joke and let out a long sigh. Aria Davis having a crush on him was impossible. Thinking back, her territorial attitude towards Lola had not only been against him but he could swear that he had notice
Christmas...For many, it was probably the most wonderful time of the year, the jolly season that brings the feeling of joy, warmth, and nostalgia. But for Bianca Sanders and the occupants of the Sanders family estate, it was merely another month, another ordinary day with no festive excitement in the air. A long scream echoed through the hallways past the busy maids and household servants as Bianca Sanders yelled down fire and brimstone, threatening to break the room’s door down or simply put an end to her rather miserable life.The Sander family’s housekeeper, held on to the fabric of her gown tightly as she ran past the rooms, stopping and panting right in front of the door. Then she knocked hastily on the bedroom door. “Madam?. Madam??.” The door locked clicked from behind and Charlotte Sander’s sleepy figure emerged in a silky night dress to see the nervous-looking housekeeper.“What’s this disturbance so early in the morning Martha? Keep the servants under control. Will you..”
