"Lola we don't have time he already asked the housekeeper for you" the maid said flusteredLola Decided to let her hair down to cover her face then followed the maid. She was panicking why did he ask for her specifically though she was his personal maid but still. That man hated her so nothing good could actually come from him specifically asking for her.In the living room Hayden sat on the couch while the housekeeper stood by the side"Where is she" Hayden asked"Young master I already sent someone to call her maybe she's asleep since you said you won't be coming today" the housekeeper replied earning himself a glare.What was wrong with him today. why did he say he won't be coming back today. anyway it was not a lie he had no intentions of returning but came to spy on her to know when she returned who knew she will return with A swollen faceLola and the maid went the living room her long hair was covering her face. If he hadn't seen her before he wouldn't notice that she had a swollen face"Welcome young master" Lola said nervous without doubt. He didn't actually give her a reason to not feel scared of him.He then stood up and walked towards her. Lola put up a reminder in her hearts never to believe when he said he wouldn't return. She unconsciously took a step back fearing he would hit her. She had only been hit once by her employer.He stopped directly in front of her only a few inches away and looked at her hairThe housekeeper felt grief for her how could she come out with her hair so messy she should have tied it up on her way here. But it's not like she had time"Did you receive the loan" Hayden asked his voice a little softer. All Lola heard was bells ringing in her ears not the softness"Yes young master" Lola said her head loweredHis next action shocked everyoneHe directly used his hand to move her hair away from her face to reveal that it was still red. Noticing how she flinched when he raised his hands. Making him frown more.The maids and the housekeeper didn't notice the red face they only stared at the young master if wondering if he was real it wasn't until he spoke that they noticed."What happened to you here"he said running his thumb gently on the red part of her face.Lola stepped back subconsciously her head still lowered she had already made up her mind to lie. She was weary of this man's intention"I ran into a wall in my room" Lola lied without blinking. She was not a saint and had her own share of lies besides the truth would put Daniel in trouble.He looked at her. He knew she had lied but merely nodded his head. He was worried about her face more so he said to the housekeeper."Call doctor James over and be fast"He grabbed Lola's hand and led her to his room on the second floor. She stood her ground at first unsure what exactly what this man wanted from her."I'm fine totally fine. No need to call a doctor" she tried to pull her hand from his grip to no avail but he merely dragged her alongLeaving in his wake this stunned housekeeper and maids. Young master was even calling his personal doctor for her.When he entered his room with Lola he said "sit down"While he went ahead to bring the medicine boxLola stared around the room and decided not to sit The young master was in neat freak how dare she sit on his sofa. She shifted her weight from one lef to the other nervously pondering if she should leave now he wasn't watching. But that was stupid he could easily get her back.Why was he being nice to her. She was scared and worried. No one did free things there was always a hidden reason.Hayden returned with the medicine box to see Lola still standing with her head lowered. He frowned at her. Taking her hand he took her to the sofa and made her sit . Lola was reluctant but she didn't dare resist.Hayden used his hand to gently lift her chin to face him. There wasn't much distance between them. Lola took the opportunity to study his features he was really handsome carefully sculpted by God. She leaned back trying to keep their distance.She was so drawn to his face that she didn't notice the warmth in his eyes as he watched her assessing him. He also let his eyes roam her face he looked at her nose which was so small and cute.He lowered his head to kiss her nose But Lola retreated. He might be handsome but he was still her boss there was no way she would start something she couldn't end. What did he want was he being nice to her so he could bed her.Hayden tried getting closer once more but a knock on the door spoilt it"Young master doctor James is here" the housekeeper announcedHayden frowned at the door before finally saying "let him in"Lola shifted away from him.Doctor James walked in and greeted Hayden the housekeeper had already told him he was here to see Lola"Good day miss" doctor James said with people at smile on his face"Hello" Lola said returning his smileDoctor James walked forward to examine her face seeing how close they were Hayden regretted not having a female doctor on hand. When he saw James about to touch her cheek he lost it"Stop!...... tell me what you want to do and I'll do it " making Lola flinch and James look at him puzzled"Hayden this is my job it would be wrong for me to bother you" James said raising his brows at Hayden who was steaming"I said I would do it" he said his voice leaving no room for argumentsJames passed him the ointment. "It's okay for the doctor to do it" Lola said not wanting Hayden that close to her again."Hayden you just need to rub this on the bruised area " James said understanding Hayden wouldn't back down"I'll do it my self" Lola said taking the ointment from James not wanting her master anywhere near her anymore.♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡When Lola was done James told Lola she was to use the ointment two times a day till the red patch cleared.Lola thanked him at least there was no need for drugsWhen James left. Lola stood up to leave but she heard."Sit" Lola reluctantly sat back. She didn't like this room it made her feel nervous. This man was unsettling her.Hayden sat on the opposite sofa reading a file. Lola decided to look around with her eyes. She thought of what happened earlier with the Young master and a blush faintly appeared on her cheeks.Unknown to her Hayden had been watching her secretly from behind the file. It wasn't until her eyes landed on him that she realised.Hayden dropped the file on the table as he smiled at the flustered Lola. Did he hit his head somewhere she wonderedLola lowered her head once more when she saw him smile. Did the young master skip taking his medicine how could he smile?And at her? She went back to her former theory was he just being nice so he could get her laid or was she just overthinking.Hayden was still smiling when Aaron knocked"Young master dinner is served" it was Lola job to call him down for meals but he wasn't sure of her predicament."Young master dinner is served" it was Lola job to call him down for meals but he wasn't sure of her predicament. "Bring it to my room. Make the serving for two people"Hayden said Lola started counting to pass time after sometime someone knocked again."Young master it's here""Bring it in" Hayden said Lola kept her head lowered. The chefs walked in followed by the housekeeper and Aaron while pushing in a food cart.The chefs immediately started serving the dishes for two. When they were done he stood by the side with the housekeeper and Aaron. Hayden understood that Lola was uncomfortable so he sent them all out.Lola was not hungry so she couldn't understand why he asked them to serve for 2"Lola you can eat" He said"I already had dinner""At least taste the turkey" Hayden said Hayden decide to help her cut the turkey. He gently took her cutlery when he was done cutting the turkey for her he used her cutlery to eat. Lola was surprised but he didn't seem to care. Lola decided
The next morning immediately the alarm⁷ went off Lola frowned she turned to the other side and covered her head with a pillow. The alarm sounded once more this time more like the honking of a ship. Lola threw the pillow to the side. She stood up from the bed feeling vexed. Anyways she only had herself to blame for the disturbance.She took her bath hurriedly. She wore one of her tank tips and a loose shorts.She decided to lie on the bed for sometime promising herself not to fall asleep. Just as she was indulging herself and almost fell asleep her phone rang.It was Omar so she picked it.~Where are you? It's already 6:05~I'm coming Lola mumbled hung up the call then dragged her sleepy body outside to the servant quartersWhen she arrived she saw Omar leaning against the wall going through his phone.When he saw her he yawned and said"Welcome my lady this humble official has been awaiting your arrival for the past 10 minutes"Lola merely pouted and flicked her hand "Morning" she sa
Hayden put on his clothes and called Valerio."Hello Hayden how come you are calling" Valerio "Let's go somewhere" Hayden"Where, when, why" Valerio"Anywhere you want, now and for fun"Valerio shuddered when he heard Hayden say fun. Once it would have sounded normal but now it was different. He decided to use this opportunity to take the Diamond VIP membership card for the Affinity night life club.They only had one and it was already acquired by Hayden who barely used it."I'm waiting Valerio" Hayden said sounding impatient"Let's go to the affinity nightlife club" Valerio said hurriedly afraid Hayden would change his mind"Fine" Hayden said He dressed up the only thing that wasn't black was his watch which was silverWhen he went down he told Aaron to tell Lol a he would be back later with company though he already informed the house keeper. He then walked to the garage with the keys of the black PorscheHe immediately got in and drove to the affinity nightlife club. When he rea
He brought out a bank card and gave it to her before continuing " Go to the Phoenix mall they will be expecting you. You are to purchase not less than 30 cooperate clothes including bags and shoes""Why?? I mean.. its not in my work description that I have to work outside the mansion.""The pin is your birth year and you will be exercising with me in my personal gym on the 3rd floor by 6:00am on weekdays and we can go jogging on Saturdays" Hayden continued not answering her"I will not follow you to your office" Lola said loudly to stop him what did this man want exactly. She was totally satisfied with just staying in the villa. She now lived for the moments when he was away."Your contract clearly states that you are to see to my care" who is going to help me when I need something in the office. Lola looked at the man who just invaded her privacy and now wanted her to be around him all day. "If I am at your company all day I'll not be able to efficiently clean your room, study and
When she pressed the bell at the door uncle Wilson the butler came out. He smiled when he saw her.“Good morning Uncle Wilson” she greeted smiling“Good morning Lola you finally came we all miss you"“That’s because I’m a good girl. Are aunt and uncle home?” Lola asked“Your uncle had some business to take care of at work but your aunt is at the pool side“Ok how is Jane it’s been a long time since I last saw her”“She is well only that she barely has time to herself because of her job” uncle Wilson said we a tired sigh and a proud smile. “Okay I’ll go see Aunt Nina. Tell Jane I said hi” Lola said before going to the swimming pool on the side of the mansion. She was truly familiar with this place. They were rich not as rich as the William’s family but they were rich enough.She and Selena had come to take this family as their second family. Aunt Nina and Uncle Maxwell had even paid for the flat they lived in both the electricity bill and others.She was truly grateful to them. Felix
Felix pulled Thomas before he accurately aimed a punch at his face. Thomas who had no time to dodge received the blow squarely in his face. Felix hit him again and it had him stumbling down as he hit some equipment before landing on the ground.Felix kept raining blows at him even as he was on the ground. Watching him beat Thomas up fear gripped Lola. Thomas fall had sent an equipment crashing attracting attention from the main area.Meanwhile Lola merely leaned forward on the treadmill calming down her pounding heart. Seeing that Felix wasn't relenting she decided to stop him. The last thing she wanted was to be involved in a murder case."Felix its okay you can stop now" Lola said loudly but he didn't show any signs of stopping. "Felix" Lola tried calling him once more but he didn't move away. Lola was anxious but didn't dare try to separate them. Her experience was still too fresh she remembered clearly how she had nearly broken her skull.《That day Felix had been involved in a fig
Felix dropped the box in his hand on the table beside the bed then walked out. Lola changed into a long sleeved top with round neck and a pleated A-lined skirt that stopped some inches above her knee. She still left her hair loose.She took the box that Felix had set on the table opening it she saw six large doughnuts sprinkled with sugar.Lola smiled brightly."Come in" Lola said and Felix came in walking over to her side. Seeing the box open in her hands he reached out for one but Lola hastily closed the lid."Hey why are you closing it What if I told you it's mine" Felix said"If it was yours you wouldn't let me near it . Besides I know aunt Nina made it that means it's for me"Felix sighed "Then can't you spare three" The edge of Lola lips twitched. This guy he didn't ask for one or two but half the entire package. She gave him a look that asked if he was stable.Lola then smiled She had been thinking of ways to make Felix escort her today seems like she found one already."I wil
They walked back hand in hand to the hospital. After staying for some time in the hospital with their mother three of them left. Lola told Felix to drive them to the Phoenix mall. Felix had his doubts but kept it to his self. The Phoenix mall was a top class shopping Arena. When they reached the parking lot of the Phoenix mall Lola gave Felix the box of doughnuts reminding him to take only two then they left him in the car. "If I look for a single piece of my doughnut your dead" Selena was also surprised why Lola came to The Phoenix mall it was really luxurious and only the rich could afford it. Lola explained to her as they walked into the mall. When they entered Lola marveled at the luxury clothes. She and Selena walk to the section for women’s corporate wear. Some of the sales girls saw them going through the clothes and approached them. One of them said “We don't allow people who aren't buying to go through the clothes” From her actions she seemed like their leader. You kno
Hayden stood the twins beside him. They were already 12 years old and today on their birthday they had asked to see their mom as a birthday present instead. At first he had thought against it but it was high time he stopped lying to them about her whereabouts. Hayden stared around the field of different flowers before landing his gaze on the grave. He explained to them the things they needed to know. He held Shayna as she sobbed. Shayne ran back to the car not Waiting for anything. After directing Daniel to take them to Selena he sat beside the grave."Hi... I finally brought the kids thought it was time they knew their mom.... I miss you." Hayden didn't say any thing more. He didn't know what to say. He always never knew what to say when he visited. He could never get it out of his mind that she died so young because of him. Selena and her mom never said anything but he knew they blamed him and they had every right to.He instead devoted all his time to taking care of his childre
The ball room was buzzing with discussion being thrown around. It was Hayden and Lola's engagement dinner only family was invited. Lola had reconciled both families and though 50% of both families wealth were shared equally between her and Selena they planned on keeping the shares. Selena was already being taught by a private tutor on buisness management and other things that involved managing her shares with Andrey helping her. Lola's training would start after she had given birth and was strong enough, Hayden's immediate family and aunt Bella’s family with his grandfather. Lola's immediate family, her maternal and paternal grandmother, Jacob, his sister and mother. Andrey, Felix and their parents. Jane and her parents. And Valerio, his grandfather, his mother, and her sister and husband. They were all seated around. Hayden stood up to give his toast. "Thank you all for being present. Everyone seated at this table is family. I want us all to toast to this beautiful woman seated
Hayden talked to the captain of the medium sized ship they were after confirming the information he needed he went back to the deck. Chris was leaned against the rail throwing up. "Pussy" Hayden taunted before moving to leave. "What did you say" Chris asked after heaving for a while. "Just that you are a fucking weak boy" Hayden said stepping closer his entire body itching for someone to beat up."Ok cut it out boys I get it momma's not around so everyone wants to flex muscles but y'all hold on till we actually save her we can always find a boxing ring for you both to spar" Felix said stepping between both men Hayden huffed walking away while Chris leaned against the railibg once more vomiting what was left in his stomach. "Isn't it ironic that you own a lot of sea boats but you are sea sick" Jane said feeling free to talk to who ever she pleased as Valerio wasn't present. "Didn't know you spoke anymore" Felix replied handing Chris a bottle of water. "What do you mean?" Jane
"Diego please, I really need to pee" Lola cried for the umpteenth time not sure Diego could even hear her she had been in the room for no less than 12 hours without any food or water buy at the moment her need to pee superceded her need for food and her dry throat which she had tried over and over to moisturise with her saliva. "I'm sorry I really am. Please come remove this cuff I really need to go now. Please..." She couldn't call out loud enough trying to save her energy cause who knew when Diego would allow her eat.The door opened just then and Diego stood there without saying a word he released her from the cuffs. Lola quietly made her way to the toilet with tired feet. ***** 2am that morning..... The door opened quietly Lola jolted when she felt someone tap her awake from her sleep. Expecting to see Diego she was surprised that instead it was someone else she couldn't see but she was sure she knew that voice. Diego had finally listened to her pleas to remove the cuffs so sh
Lola threw the phone at the shower wall with all her might smashing it as water from the shower head fell down on it. Diego tried to save his phone but it was entirely impossible. "I told you not to fucking test me" Diego said landing a slap against her cheeks. Lola gasped spitting out blood using her tongue to feel her tooth which was loose as a result of the impact from his ring. "I didn't do anything wrong" Lola replied her tears threatening to fall. "You didn't do anything wrong!!! Then how do you explain my smashed phone under the shower." "I just wanted to call my sister to let her know I'm alive and I love her" Lola quickly explained her self even though she knew it was pointless. "And why would you do that. Do you know how much effort I put into faking your death." "You know what you've been a real bitch lately and it seems it's because I keep tolerating. It's time I show you what you are looking for" with this Diego stopped screaming and pulled her out of the bathroom.
Lola walked around the mansion not sure what she was even looking for the last thing on her mind was escaping. The only time she tried to escape Diego had taken her on a ride she watched the people on the streets who carried one weapon on the other some trading on different things she was sure wasn't legal. They came to the end of the ride and Lola looked at the large expansion of waters realizing they were on an island. "Don't ever think about escaping again" she remembered that was all he said to her. Escaping was out of the question she would be caught before she left the mansion grounds. And even if she passed the mansion grounds. The streets wasn't a bit safe and there was no way she could leave this Island on her own she didn't even know what country this island was located nearest to. The only escape was of she could sneak on a ship or yacht that had come once to the island. She had binoculars in her room the used to spy on the outside world. At least she learnt something in
Lola opened her eyes slowly trying to adjust to the light in the room. She felt warm covers littered at different sides of the bed she was laid on. The room smelt different. Lola quickly sat up remembering everything that happened she glanced around the strange environment. Looking out the window that had iron bars she wandered who abducted her and why. She didn't have to think long as the door opened and a Young man walked in stopping at the door. Lola could only think on how the man in front of her felt familiar. "I'm gonna give you space tigress heard you put up quite the fight." Lola scoffed in her mind refusing to talk first. He would explain first before she would decide what to do." Giving me the silent treatment already well I'll introduce myself maybe that will break the ice""The name is Diego." Lola waited for him to continue but the man as stared at her still."Who changed my clothes" Lola asked suddenly feeling insecure of any one seeing her body which was changing w
Lola checked her appearance in the mirror once more touching her make up. "So are you really planning on giving him a second chance?" Selena asked flipping through the fashion magazine the most recent release. "Yes" Lola said quietly putting on her ear rings. Selena didn't say anything. She had a different opinion of Hayden but since Lola was giving him a second chance all she could do now was try her best to protect Lola in whatever way she could. The door bell rang and Lola's eyes quickly landed on the wall clock he was 5 minutes early. Selena knew who was at the door so she refused to make her way out to get the door. They soon heard the main door open and their mom conversing with someone. That baritone voice was etched in Lola’s memory. She could surely identify that voice any where She walked out to the living room all of a sudden shy when she saw Hayden staring at her his eyes taking in her appearance fully. "You look gorgeous" Hayden complimented Lola smiled slightly as
The people in their living room slowly left after Felicia explained to them that the girls weren't interested in taking sides in their fight with the Lucians. They didn't take it well at first but left in a hurry after Jacob came back and spilled the truth. The two families were only after them because of a pact made by their grandfathers on their death beds. When Justin's sibling was found half the wealth of both families would be given to who ever it was. It was their way of asking for forgiveness from them. Justin had already confirmed the blood relation of Selena and Lola to his self they were his sisters. News had gotten to them and it was only a matter of time before their grand fathers lawyers heard about it. In a nutshell they weren't here to create bonds as family but to try their best to profit from the girls. Now Hayden sat by the side with everyone's gaze on him. Lola was currently sleeping in her room. "It's late why don't we head out" Felix said to Hayden politely te
