Lucky’s POV“Where are we going, Lucresia?” Damien asked while he’s watching me from the reflection in the mirror.I was blow drying my hair while he’s already dressed and was just waiting for me to finish. I pressed my lips together, refusing to answer him. He remained sitting on the edge of the bed, watching me.I pulled myself up and went to him. His hand automatically reached for mine and he pulled me to sit on his lap. The dress I’m wearing rolled up, revealing my legs. He pressed my legs together and wrapped his left arm around my waist. His right hand intertwined our fingers and I stared at it. Oh his love language. I’m always glad he fell for me.“Where are we going, Lucresia? Hmm? This is not the time for a date. The reporters are everywhere. They might chase us. You might get hurt.”I shook my head. “We have our bodyguards, Damien.”“Still…”I caressed his jaws as he trailed his words. He looked into my eyes and I planted a soft kiss on his lips. “Just trust me.”He kissed m
Lucky'sI noticed that after our appointment with Attorney Lee, Damien has become energetic. His eyes were always happy and full of hope. Reason why I talked to Attorney Lee last night was to make sure that we're going to win the case. I was relieved when Attorney Lee assured me that he'll do whatever it takes to defend Damien. He gave me his word and I'm trusting him."The prince woke up from the deep slumber and kissed the princess…"I smiled as I heard Damien's voice when I slightly opened Darya's door.Damien was sitting comfortably on Darya's bed, his back on the headboard. Darya, on the other hand, was hugging her father while resting in his chest.My husband's gentleness was emphasized as he sat on Darya's pink bed. He was holding a story book, reading it to his daughter."What happened to them, daddy?" Darya asked and yawned. Her eyes are sleepy but she wants to hear the ending of the story.Damien gently caressed her hair. "The prince and the princess lived happily ever after
Lucky’s POVMr. Smith’s cold and emotionless eyes bore at me. I lifted my chin as he neared us and finally sat on the chair across from me. Damien was holding my hand tight under the table.My forehead creased when Mr. Smith suddenly smiled. His smile was so creepy that it made my heart skip a beat because of fear. What the hell… This man is evil.“You look like your dad, Lucresia Salvador. It’s a waste that he’s already under the ground.”I gritted my teeth. I almost balled my fist if only Damien wasn’t holding my hand.I angrily dropped the photo Duncan gave me to the table. Mr. Smith's eyes slowly shifted to it and his smirk faded.My eyes darkened as I saw how expression changed. From my perspective, anger flickered in his eyes."What do you want?"I tilted my head. "I want the truth, Mr. Smith. What is your relationship with my dad? And why did your wife visit him?""Why don't you just forget about the past and focus on your life, Lucresia? My daughter has been killed and that ma
Lucky's POVI was constantly glancing at Rad and Damien who are talking in the living area. I'm in the kitchen with Camilla and Darya. Cami came not an hour ago."What's with Rad Keller?"I shook my head and slowly turned to Cami. “I don’t know.”I stared at her when I remember seeing her with someone. I don’t know what’s going on between them, but whatever it is, I’m happy for her.“What’s that look, Lucky? You’re creeping me out.”I smiled at her. “I’m just happy that you didn’t hate me after everything that happened.”She wrinkled her nose and smiled. “Why should I hate you? You’re my sister.”We stared at each other until she slowly grabbed my hand as her eyes softly looked at me.“I-I have something to tell you…”I nodded and smiled. She chewed her bottom lip and sighed. “I…like Duncan.”I squeezed her hands. “Really?”She looked down as guilt flickered in her eyes. “I like him but I’m guilty, Lucky. Sunny liked him.”I shook my head. “Liking him is not a sin, Cami. There’s nothi
Lucky's POVDamien texted me while I was on my way home. I exchanged phones with him today. I'm now using mine.He's already at home with Darya. Mrs. Smith left right after our argument. She was so angry and I had no courage and strength to stop her. I don't know her pain because I have my own pain.The fact that my father was an offender makes me weak. He was so perfect in my innocent eyes before and now it's tainted.I sucked my breath as I tried to ignore the thoughts in my head.Mr. Smith killed my father because of his wife? Is that it?I calmed myself before I went home. Darya and Damien are in the kitchen, cooking.I smiled as I watched them from the kitchen's entrance. Darya was sitting on the counter while Damien was in front of the stove.They're oblivious to my presence because they're talking."I love chicken, daddy!"Damien smiled at her. "I love chicken too!""How about mommy? Did she like chicken too?"I entered the kitchen. "I love chicken but I love Darya more.""Momm
Lucky's POVI couldn't take Zandra off of my mind. Mrs. Smith admitted the truth that Mr. Smith is trying to hide from me. She admitted it because of her exploding emotions and I don't know if I should be happy about it. I'm hurt.This is probably the reason why dad hid it from us. Because there are things that should remain as a secret or it will break many hearts.I want to tell mom about this. I can't hide it from her but I can't risk her health too. Yes! She's recovered already but I can't take a risk.I chewed my bottom lip and heaved a sigh. I don't wanna accept the truth.I flinched when I felt a warm hand caressing my arm. That's when I woke up from the depths of my thoughts and realized I was in a court hearing. Camilla was sitting beside me, holding my arm worriedly."Are you okay?" She whispered.I glanced in front and turned to her again. I slowly nodded and answered with a hoarse voice.I tried to focus on what's happening in front of me. Attorney Lee is now presenting th
Lucky's POVI was able to tell Camilla about the problem. She patiently listened. She patiently comforted me. My heart felt so heavy although I couldn't cry anymore. My tears have dried and even if I tried to cry, my tears won't show up. Only the pain that's burdening my heart."You can't tell Damien because you're ashamed about your dad's crime? Lucky, we don't know if Mrs. Smith was telling the truth."I shook my head as I stared at Camilla. "We're both women, Camilla. And I saw the truth in her eyes. I saw it with my own eyes. She hates my father so much.""If that's true, then that's probably the reason why Mr. Smith did that to your father."I chewed my bottom lip and sigh. "I don't know. It doesn't make sense, Cami. Why not punish dad right after he committed the crime? And Zandra died… I don't know what to think anymore, Cami.""Don't stress yourself.""How? Even if I thought about it over and over again, there's one thing I'm sure about. All of these started because of my dad.
Lucky's POVI was watering the plants early in the morning when I saw Rad's car coming. He parked his car in front of the gate and his eyes automatically roamed around and found mine.He smiled sweetly and glanced at the guard. The latter who knows him opened the gate and allowed him in.I should tell the guards not to let anyone in no matter who it is.The bodyguards scattered around the yard did not even budge as Rad walked towards me."Good morning." He smiled again.I bit my bottom lip and smiled. "Morning. Damien's not here."Today, the court will reveal its decision regarding Damien's case. I'm pretty confident he'll get his license back and I'm sure all the people who judged him will regret their accusations.Rad slowly nodded. "Where is he?"I stared into his eyes. "On his way to get his license back."His lips parted in shock. "Huh? I mean…how?"The corner of my lips rose in an arrogant and proud smile. "What do you mean why? My husband is innocent. He's framed up by someone.
