Chapter 84Dinner date"Stop it. You don't know how to do it," Larisa said to Gabe when he suddenly protested to let him do her nails. She doesn't remember when was the last time she had her nails done. But it was when she was still in the clan of the Valestine. The designs of her nails were already ruined and Gabe just happened to notice it. "I know how to do it. Don't you trust Gabe Clyborne?" He asked arrogantly, full of himself. She couldn't help but to smirk at him. "I don't care about my nails. It's not that important to think about everything that's happening," she uttered and smiled bitterly. "Do you want to go to nail salon, then?" He asked, in case she wants to go there. It will help her a bit to distract her from the pain that has been drowning her after Noah died. "No," she replied. "I don't feel like interacting with other people yet," she added, following it with a deep sigh. "Come on, let me do it." He began to paint her nails with that nude cuticle. Gabe was real
Chapter 85Cutting ties"Here you go," Gabe said after slicing the meat for Larisa. She didn't even have to ask him to do it. He will automatically do it for her. She couldn't move her away from him. Watching Gabe takes care of her like this makes her realize that she made the right decision. "Who helped you to do all of this?" She asked with curiosity. "Don't tell me you paid people?" She added a question as he knows that he's capable of doing that. "Of course not. David, Leo and Gavin helped me. They are inside, eating the food we're eating as well." He explained a bit with that gleaming smile on his lips. "Gavin is here?" She asked in surprise."What's new?" He uttered and shook his head.Well, Gavin always goes there. "Should we plan our wedding?" He asked and now looked at her. She stopped as she began to think of it. When Noah died all of a sudden, she forgot about their wedding. Their engagement party was traumatizing as it was when Noah died. Now that she thinks of it, it'
Chapter 86Cake Shop"Did you do it?" Yna asked her daughter as soon as she arrived back at their house after meeting Larisa in the café. Looking at her not carrying the box she brought earlier, makes Yna conclude that she really did it. "I did," Candice answered, chasing her breath heavily. Until now, she was fuming mad. Her blood boils by thinking of what Larisa told her earlier. It upsets her. She really knows how to play a game in all aspects."Good. Tell me what happened th—""Not now, Mom." She said and cut her out as she marched back to her room. She quickly went to the balcony of her room to get some air and cool down herself. Beyond the anger she feels towards Larisa, she also feels heavy. Her chest feels heavy that makes her burst into tears. She did it. It's now over between her and Larisa. As she stood on the balcony and the air began to play with her hair, all the memories she had with her started to pour in her mind. All those precious and happy memories that she will
Chapter 87 The Castellan"Annalise's Cake Shop?" Leo read out loud. She prepared her business plan for all of them to start the business as soon as possible. Everything is planned in her head. Thinking of those plans excites her a lot. "Why not use your real name?" Estevan asked. Her brows raised as they were all confused of why she chose the fake name they created for her cake shop. "Well, it's because the story begins with that name." She explained shortly with a soft smile. "That's why I want to use that name for my cake shop." "Okay, so I found you a rental place for a while. After we find a lot for the building of your cake shop, then you can just change the location of your shop." Gavin explained as he arrived with the brown envelope where all the papers are there. Her brows crossed. "Did you pay for everything?" She asked, and wasn't really happy about it. "Yeah, I did." Gavin said. "I mean, Gabe did." Her eyes now drew to Gabe who was pretending to drink the tea that t
Chapter 88Should be her "While we are waiting for the opening, why don't we sell everything on her menu in front of your company?" Amber suggested to all of them. "Hmm, that's a great idea. She can make a profit that quick before her shop opens," Gavin agreed. "We can also accept orders online. It's not hard to deliver from door to door," Leo suggested as well. "Those ideas are all good. But we have to tell that to Larisa first," Gabe uttered."Where is she? Is she not awake yet?" Estevan asked. They were all having their breakfast before they worked their fingers to the bone to introduce Larisa's cake shop to the people. Larisa stopped upstairs, when she saw them downstairs. She took a heavy sigh as she stared at the dagger that Noah gave her. After being hunted by those Castellans for unknown reasons, she didn't have a good sleep anymore even though she wanted to sleep. "Why are they appearing in my dreams, Noah?" She mumbled, talking to the dagger that he gave her. She shoo
Chapter 89Unwelcome visitorIt’s the opening day of Larisa’s cake shop. The people were hooked with all the posts of the Clybornes, promoting her cakes. They really influenced her shop so much that it became notorious when it was just opening. All the Clyborne were present in the event, including their parents, supporting Larisa that much. She baked a lot of cakes and everything in her menu for the opening as she knows that it will not last with all the people who will come. “We are giving ten free boxes of cupcakes for the first ten customers,” Larisa said to her employees who were now busy with everything.“Copy, Mam!” her young teenager exclaimed with that huge and bright smile as she stood in front of the cashier, ready to greet all the customers. “I’ve prepared the ten boxes,” the male one said. Nathan and Bea. They are her employees who will be helping her with everything as she runs her cake shop. They are very obedient and respectful. They are also learning fast in everyth
Chapter 90 Find them"What did you do?" Lucinda asked immediately as soon as Candice came out of her car parked in front of their house. She was wearing her blank but frightening face towards her. Behind her was Candice's mother, nervous of what her daughter did. Until now, she's losing her words when it comes to Lucinda. Candice is already the heiress, and yet it feels like she has no power nor her voice—she's still unheard. Candice smirked while looking at the two of them who welcomed her back. Do they really doubt her that much? "Do you think I have the Id attitude?" She asked sarcastically. Id is the animalistic characteristic that's not aware of its action and its consequences. "This is not just a war, Candice. This is a big war! You can't take any risk that will put our clan in danger!" They were following her inside as she just turned her back to them, sick of hearing all their lectures. "I know what I am doing," she said calmly, but firm enough to make her shut her mout
Chapter 91The lost child “You did what?” Gabe’s mother asked with her mad voice. Gabe was only facing the view outside of his company. He has a lot in his mind. It will never stop until Larisa finds it out. But then, he was stopping himself all this time. He saw it by himself. How Larisa was shattered by the fact that she was not able to spend her childhood nor her life with her real parents and family. They ruined it—they deprived the chance to let her live with them. The worse thing is, they even used her to all their evilness. How can they still live their lives after how they manipulated Larisa’s life? After killing that clan who has a good and pure heart. “I decided to help her, Mom.” He repeated for the second time, holding back his rage from the Valestine clan. “It’s not what I am telling you to do, Gabe. I am asking you to tell her the truth!” She exclaimed with her broken heart, thinking of how the Castellan died at the hands of those evils. “Calm down,” his husband sai
