Chapter 14Sweat could be seen at the corner side of her face anytime Bianca who is playing Mia's role got close to her for the kissing scene. Avery never thought kissing would be more challenging than she could ever imagine.Cut!“Eileen, can you show willingness on your face? You've been shooting other scenes perfectly, what's wrong now?” The director was a little bit irritated by the situation.“I'm sorry, director, I have no reason to justify my actions.” She pleaded.She has played the part where the moment she caught her boyfriend cheating, she went straight to a club to clear her head and get drunk and then met with Mia where things got intense between them.Actions!In the scene, the atmosphere was charged with tension as the characters indulged in their characters, and emotions reached their peak point. Amidst a heated exchange at the bar, The first female lead, Mia, impulsively pushed the second female lead, Eileen, against the bar cabinet.Since they were both drunk, the mo
Chapter 15“What the heck?” Avery curled her fist underneath before flipping back her hair.Avery couldn't help but see the scornful smile on the unknown maid's face, she tried confirming it but her gaze was straightened and no sign of scornfulness could be seen.“Ma'am, I'll advise you to go now as she's, waiting in the living room,” The maid named Shirley said with a grin as she slightly bowed respectfully at Avery with a cunning smile.“Damn it!”Avery cursed angrily watching her retreating figure till she was out of sight, she knew the maid had more under her sleeve and she was ready to deal with her but not now. She needs to come up with a big plan to stop the woman.“Call Lucien, call him now!” Avery yelled furiously as she couldn't even come up with a single plan.“What do you mean, Miss? You don't have Master Lucien's number.” Emily calmly said.“This can't be freaking happening to me! What do I tell her, how should I explain that his unconscious son is nowhere to be found!” Av
Chapter 16“Mother, let me cook………..ah”Avery tried to play her card fully at that moment but her mother-in-law wasn't buying it and angrily gulped down the whole content in her wine cup before hurling it in the direction of the maids.Some maids narrowly dodged the glass that smashed on the ground and shattered into pieces but along the way, some were not too fast to move which made some of the broken pieces pierce into their skins.Avery was so scared but still she kept a straight face not moving an inch from where she sat. She never thought the woman would lose her patience in that manner. “Like mother like son!” She thought.“Get lost!” Avery said she could not show any weakness or pity to those maids. The only thing she could do was to send them away using an arrogant tone.The maids bowed respectfully and backwardly left the living room not without Shirley's mouth curved into a sly smirk, she knew there was no other way out for the bratty Eileen.“Now, get up and lead the way!”
Chapter 17 His musky fragrant smell which she had just inhaled filled her nostrils as both locked their gazes. “Thank you ….” She mumbled trying to get out of his grip. “Hey, let go….!” Before she could finish her words, she suddenly felt the person who was supporting her waist with his hands collide on her chest. “Ah…. What do you think you are doing, Lucien?” Avery uttered in confusion. Avery's gaze widened in terror as she gasped in surprise as the man's head pressed hard against her chest, she tried to pull away, but he was just too heavy. “What does it seem like I'm doing?” Lucien mumbled unknowingly. “Hey, why did you get wasted to this extent?” Avery asked, concerned. Avery stared through his face and could see how flushed he was, his face had turned red. Lucien blinked twice “Does it seem like I am drunk? I am not.” “Since you're not drunk, Can you get off me, first? So that I can get some maids to take care of you.” Silence erupted the room instantly, as Lucien seem
Chapter 18Avery watched as Lucien's lips were getting closer to hers when the image of her ex-husband lashed into her head.“ Jake..”Pain churned in her heart as she tried to suppress those deadly memories of “Jake”. If it was possible Avery suddenly wanted her previous memories to be flushed out of her brain. Those memories were nothing but bad memories to her anyway.Before Lucien's lips could touch hers she knocked him out instantly and his head fell on her chest. Before knocking Lucien out, she couldn't help but remember how she was unable to give birth throughout her previous marriage days. She couldn't help but think what if she was meant not to be able to give birth in her current life also?Even though she heard the doctor had thoroughly checked the current body, she still couldn't help but be worried.Though the body wasn't hers, her soul was inside the body which means there's fifty to fifty percent that barrenness might affect the body while there is a chance it might n
Chapter 19Butler Lee had his mouth covered in surprise as he watched the CCTV, he didn't mean to invade his master's privacy but had to check the CCTV since there was a rumor circulating in the villa that Miss Eileen didn't sleep in her room.He was in shock upon seeing the dramatic scene in the video, he could see the cold-hearted man leaning toward his wife. If not because he had known the man for years he would have thought he was trying to get intimate with his wife but knowing how he despised the woman, he couldn't help but think it was his eyes playing some tricks on him.“Butler Lee, did you find anything? Is she out of the mansion?” Emily asked worriedly banging the door. She had requested the man to check the CCTV camera for Eileen's details since she doesn't have access as a maid.Butler Lee almost immediately turned off the camera before dashing out of the room before she could come inside, he couldn't help but feel the tension as he didn't know what to say at that moment.
Chapter 20By the time Avery got to the dining room, Lucien was already eating and couldn't help but salivate at first sight seeing eggs and a whole grain toast which was her favorite and it had been long since she took.She ran quickly and got seated with a broad smile on her face while grinning happily at just the sight of the breakfast.Apart from her favorite, there are other salivary foods like oatmeal and nuts, Avocado toast, and many more. Seeing a good refreshing breakfast instantly made her worry less about her situation.“Dish my food, please.” She said with a broad smile which made Lucien who was eating give him a short stare as he wondered what was making her grinning ear to ear.Almost immediately, the maid named Shirley was the one that stepped forward to dish Avery's food which made Avery's face stiff instantly.She was hoping to have her breakfast calmly and go shopping with Eileen's friend Sophia. The so-called friend had called her to remind her they promised to shop
Chapter 21Avery was dressed up low-key just like her maid suggested for her, she dressed down putting on a jean and a simple shirt with a pair of glasses and a scarf. She looks more like a teenager and couldn't deny the fact that she loves her current body so much.Putting on those pair of glasses wasn't that strange to her but it made her remember those days when she was being bullied by the rich kids while her adoptive sister would always fight hard for her no matter what.Thinking about it she realized she had been depending on Isabella for a very long time which was why she could use her as a stepping stone.One wouldn't blame her for putting almost everything on Isabella, she sees her as her blood sister. Even her parents see her as their daughter rather than her. Even when she was supposed to hate because her parents hated her because they chose an outsider over her she never did.“Miss, I have been calling you for a while now but you seemed to be lost in thought,” Emily said,
