ENTWINED HEART: desire and deceit chapter 17
Lucas I could not understand why I was in such turmoil over Abigail finding out that I had been found in a compromising position in my office. I mean, this was my office and I could do anything I wanted exactly how I wanted it.I remained inside there for a few minutes as I gave Lola some time to walk away while I tried to figure out exactly what I would be telling Abigail right now. I mean, I had to exert dominance one way or another.Hence, I walked out ignoring the urge to ask Ray to fetch her. She was seated on her seat. Obviously trying to focus. I noticed how the staff quietened down the moment I entered into the area and tried to make it seem as though they were focusing on their respective jobs."Abigail, my office now." I thundered and quickly turned away to my office.I resisted the urge to turn and see her shiver or anything as I went straight to my office. I sat down and turned to find she was not right behind me.I furrowed my brows as I waited. A few seconds later she e

AbbyHe was getting on my last nerves and it was no longer funny. I could tell this man hated every inch of my being. As I walked out of his office and went to get my bag, I wondered if my father had any idea that his friend was such an ass. Nevertheless, I simply grabbed my bag and walked away.The moment I stepped out, I decided to make a choice first. Going to Deluxe first to pick up his outfit seemed like the best choice and then Cabbies and cream but what would I be doing with a coat at a restaurant? It was clear I would have to get there first.I flagged down the taxi and let him know my destination before going to sit down in the car.As I entered, I could not help but feel a pang of anger wash over me. I was just trying my hardest to keep it all cool and in one place.I paid my fare and went inside just as my heart escaped me. My mouth opened in horror as I saw the line. This place was bustling with crowds and I was beginning to wonder what to do.Wait, he said he already pla

Abby The moment the car pulled in front of the restaurant, I started dashing inside."Hey lady, my money!" The driver yelled after me.Oh shoot!I turned back to him as I made a few paces close."Please,. I really need to get something. You'll be taking me back to my office. Could you wait?" I asked him.He looked for a moment and then shrugged his shoulders. I mean, anything for his extra funds.I ran inside just as another lady whom I did not recognise was leaving the line. I went up ahead."What do you think you're doing, lady?" The man in front demanded."I'm really sorry but I was in this line earlier." I said, panting as I could not even catch my own breath.Someone in the back chuckled."Yeah, right. And I was on the cover of Forbes magazine. Get in the back or see if any of them other willes willing to trade sides with you." He said to me,"No, I'm serious. I was here earlier. I just left to go pick up this package and then returned. The guy behind me was tall and long haired

LucasI had placed a call directly to the manager of Cabbies and Cream informing them that I would be sending someone to pick up my order and hence, there was no need to send it via the rider.Also, this call came with another instruction. Accordingly, the person was on a mission to learn endurance and good behaviour as she has been lacking that lesson. Hence, she was to be treated as nothing special and just as the most common of their customers. I mean, it should be fun to watch her come back here feeling angry. She would probably be hours late or something but then, I would have the advantage of blaming her for not being able to prioritise the meeting first before her excuses. The plan would be to ask why she had to keep waiting knowing there were other things to do.I watched the clock with such a smug smile on my face. Seriously, why is it so easy for me to bully her? And why was I finding it so fun messing around with her like some little boy struck with the dust of Cupid.I tr

AbbyThis man was really getting to me and it was becoming frustrating. I could not believe him right now that he would not at the very least appreciate me for trying to save his meeting. Was it my fault that a man as wealthy as Lucas Brooke would purchase food without having it delivered to his destination?Anger filled my lungs that as soon as I left his office, I went straight to the washroom to check on my emotions. I was all teary eyed at this point and needed to cool off. So, I stood in front of the big mirror as I tried getting myself all calm and collected. Eventually, I did and made my way out of that place finally.I came out to our section and amidst the prying gazes, I simply walked over to go sit down on my seat. The more I thought about what had happened, the more angry I became.Soon enough, I could see everyone was going out for lunch and I was glad something might just distract me. I would take a walk downstairs and go sit down around the fire exit place just to calm

Lucas I took one more look at the package she had left me and realised how big these burgers were. She probably had bought two to ensure that I was satiated and I felt a small smile creep into my lips.I thought about going out to get a drink when I realised that lunch time was not so far off. I smiled, I would probably send for her and then demand she eats one of the burgers in front of me as punishment for trying to ruin my body. That way, I would get her to eat right in front of me.One would not be totally wrong to assume that I was being a pervert right now but for Abigail, I would begrudgingly say that it was worth it. So, instead I started browsing through the stock market news and that was a wrong move. As soon as I had gotten deep, I totally lost track of time and then, it was a few minutes already into their lunch time.I recalled that I had observed Abigail and noticed she never really went to lunch since she joined us which was a bonus as I called for Ray."Sir?" He answ

AbbyOf course he was going to use that line. I mean, he was such a petty bastard who would stop at nothing to make me feel bad."Of course I do learn! I learnt only from this little internship that my father's friend is an ass. I learnt that all he cares about is his egoistic self and even more, I learnt what a slave driver he is!" I yelled at him.Tears were falling from my eyes despite my decision not to ever cry before him. These were tears of anger actually but they might as well be interpreted for something else. Quickly, I started wiping the tears off my eyes as I sniffed over and over again."Are you crying?" He asked me, obviously pretending to care.I scoffed."Like you care, right? You don't need to bother yourself. I'm not crying, okay?" I yelled out the words."Here." He said as he noticed I was still trying to clean the tears with the back of my palms. Seriously, why on earth would it not stop pouring out?I mean, this man was actually beginning to think I was crying be

Lucas I had her worked up and even now, I was ashamed of myself. I should have done better than this drama but here I was, being petty.It was not in my best interest that she had shed tears and I tried offering her my handkerchief which she rejected. It hurt me even more. What monster was I becoming all in bid to tell myself that I felt nothing for her? I mean, it was not her fault that I had to be the pervert and admire her, right?It was all on me and I needed to fix this. However, I decided to make it up to her and asked her to grab the burgers. I did not want to assist so it can not be said that I was playing nepotism or something.It was only with the car that I assisted and that should be reasonable enough as her hands were full. She sat down beside me as I drove and I could not help but feel drawn to her.Gosh, why on earth did she have to look so beautiful and attract me? I was never one drawn to women as young as Abigail but here she was,. making my world go crazy with her

ENTWINED HEART: desire and deceit chapter 93
Lucas It was finally time. I mean, Lucinda believed that she could use the press against me as a weapon and I would sit back and watch. It was finally time to play the same game as her. I was already a rejuvenated man at this point when I realised that all along when I had been scared, Gavin was actually rooting for us. It felt really great that he was not fighting me for his daughter's attention and somehow, I was beginning to feel like I owed him much. At first, it was really hard to believe and I wanted to tell him to come clean on what he was planning on doing to me but I simply kept my mouth shut. It would be best to dwell on his current promise after all.I arrived at the venue for the conference and as soon as members of the press caught sight of me, they were already rushing towards me with a lot of questions spewing from their lips. I was intrigued at the moment with how desperate for information they all were but I made my way inside without saying a single word to them. As

Abigail I should have known that my father would react this way. I mean, what was I expecting? That he would stay silent and ignore me all through without any back up plan? Of course he was going to come over and I had been totally vulnerable at this point.Lucas was pretty much calm that I had not been expecting this sort of reaction from him. He was being respectful to my father in such a way that I was wondering if he would win the old stubborn man over. I have always had my way with my father being paved clearly for me because I was either throwing a tantrum or I was fighting against him. And that was the exact strategy I had been looking forward to sporting. Tormenting him until he had no other options but to give in had been my go to plan and I did not care one bit about anything else.I wanted to ask Lucas to stop but now he has mentioned Lucinda and my father was demanding to know if he had thrown me to her."Of course not, dad. Actually...." Just then, the doorbell rang and

Lucas It was beginning to show down that everything was going in different directions. I had not anticipated that Gavin would find out about us in this way as it would have been a more respectful approach when he was all healed and stuff. Right now, we had to make this decision because it would have been worse if he had to find this out through other means. He was obviously pissed at the moment as we kept trying his number until then, we gave up. I actually asked Abigail to stop because it was not working."Do you think I shouldn't have mentioned it to him?" She asked me."Well, there's no point dwelling in the past. You said that you're ready to fight for us and so am I. How about we figure a way out of this mess together?" I asked her."But what if he hurts himself?" She asked me."Hurt himself, that's not the kind of person Gavin is. He would probably be thinking of how to cut my balls and feed them to his pets. I know that for certain." I said to her and she smiled. Obviously, sh

Abby I was shocked. I had come home with pains and a heavy heart. Seriously I wanted to go drink myself to stupor but I did not have the strength. Lucas had left the office and I came home after work. My phone was ringing over and over again from Taylor and I was in no mood to speak to her. All I could do was keep crying in my room alone because I had a feeling that he was with her. From time to time, I would pick up my phone just to check and see if there was anything from him and her. Maybe I had been partially thinking they would finally decide to make it true and open to everyone that they were sleeping with each other. I just wished this was all a bad dream that I would wake up from but pinching myself and I realised that it was the real deal. I had successfully lost him to the arms of his ex lover and I would learn to live with the pain of the moment we shared.I was wondering who it was that was knocking on my door and a part of me wished he was the one. I wanted to see the lo
ENTWINED HEART: desire and deceit chapter 89
LucasI never would have expected in my entire life that I would be this shocked. I had gone there with the clear reasons that I was going to confront her and try getting her to rebuff everything so far. I mean, she had done nothing in the line of denying what was in the news and I was not finding it amusing at this point. So, I just sought to reach an agreement or something when she suddenly mentioned Abigail's name. I stopped for something as I had watched her while she was sleeping with triumph. She knew that she clearly had me by the jugular at this point and by the scruff of my neck which was a bad moment.I thought about the best way to get her off my back and decided to play with her."What are you saying? I'm here for us to discuss your little stunt." I said to her,She suddenly erupted into an annoying laugh that had me provoked."My little stunt you say? Come on now, Lucas. I had never thought of you to be petty as well as crazy. That's her name, the bimbo who you were defen

LucindaIt was time to get ready and my entire apartment was crawling with fashion designers. I had excused myself to shower before coming out to sit down for my hair to get made. I was asked if I had any style in mind but there was actually nothing. I simply wanted the best look that they had to offer. If I was going to make a debut, I was going to look lol. I had never been through hell while doing it. Jarvis on the other hand was really occupied with taking calls and she spoke now with so much authority as I could hear her declining some and leaving others on hold. Each time our gazes met, she would give a thumbs up to me and I would return a smile to her.She was right about one thing, we were back. No, I was the star here and it was my controversy that was the star of the whole show which means she needed me more than I did her. I sat down there and then one of them brought me a catalogue from which I could pick my hair. I did not have the time or energy for such things."Listen,
ENTWINED HEART: desire and deceit chapter 87
Lucinda Well I was in the mood at this point. To think that Lucas would ever embarrass me because of that nobody was something I never thought in my wildest dreams would happen. And I saw that look in his eyes. This was the look of a man in love and was not willing to leave that woman. He looked like he could actually kill me while he had been defending her and she had looked at him as I would my very first highschool boyfriend. Now, this was becoming clear that it was no longer a coincidence. I had met him the other day at his office and he was talking to her. The same girl was coming out of his office another day and I was beginning to piece it all little by little. Who on earth was this lady that had this side of him coming out. He was never this protective of me but I could identify when a man was guarding his own and I realised that I had a contender for his attention.I had seen the girl and I already knew she was very young which means that she would bow to pressure but I was

Lucas I could not believe my ears as she spoke to me. Apparently, we might have fooled everyone else but she could tell there was a sort of chemistry between us. She had not been certain but when she had mentioned that Abigail had been led away by Lucinda, the hurry with which I had gotten up was faster than usual. I could have made a call that the security escorts Lucinda out but I went there and took care of it myself. She also mentioned Jack and how I kept questioning her about anything that would bring him close to Abigail. In her own words, it was like a wolf guarding its own and I was stunned. All my efforts at keeping things discreet were beginning to fade away and I was only lucky she said everyone else thought that I hated her. That was a plus as it was bad enough that I had myself wrapped in a scandal but having to drag her into another that would complicate things for her was not something I wanted to deal with."But you said that I was treating her too badly. I mean, you
ENTWINED HEART: desire and deceit chapter 85
Lucas There was no best way to explain this to her that she would pay attention to. She was angry and she probably hated me so much that I could not even get through to her. I was observing her as she spoke, she had a rather deeply rooted pain in her and the thought of me being the reason for her pain really hurt. Just a few hours ago, I had been making promises to her and I meant everything I said. I had been ready to come clean with Gavin on how I felt about his daughter but seeing her right now and how angry she was, I started to take a pause. I knew it would be nearly impossible to break through and I would have to figure out a way.There was however one thing that I knew I had to do and that was make this right. I could either do that or convince Abigail that this was all a set up. I watched as she walked away angrily but then returned to take her glasses when I tried to bring her in for a kiss. Not because I was making light of her emotions but I had seen such situations on the
