“Sir, we have confirm no any relation between Anna Mason, and a few men who had been on our list. She works alone that night, when she drugs you.” One of his men reported back to him. “Is that how desperate she really is?” Romanov clicked his tongue. He have an irritated look on his face, but he is not only annoyed to Anna, but as well as to Moira, who was being held captive inside his mansion.Moira Roxas. She was supposed to be his wife, but blinded by his fury and reckless decision, he had been married before she had the chance to carry his surname. One of the reason why he couldn’t just let her slipped away, when she found out the truth. What’s keeping her sane was the fact that she have no idea who it is at the moment. However, her cluelessness won’t save her to get spared.Moira is Romanov’s key to inherit her father’s company. It is a marriage for convenience. His power and their future. The Roxas would gain from him and so he would be, but Anna Mason ruined it.The reminder o
“Sir?” A knock coming from his office door made Gustav to lifted his head from his papers.“Yes?”“You have a visitor.” Amber peered down, and have him an anxious smile. “And I believe it doesn’t matter whether you are expecting her or not, that’s what she said—”“Of course, my son knows that I don’t need any appointment, Miss.” Behind Amber, a woman pushed open the door.It shows a middle age aristocrat clad in a fancy dress. She looks to be about on her 50’w, but her face doesn’t look that old. She have a pale skin, a reddish lips and a soft features that match Gustav’s eyes and his nose. They look alike, but how can they not be, when it is no other than his own mother?Juliet Rexene Salvador.“Mom.” Gustav instantly frowns, while signalling Amber to leave the room. “What are you doing here?”“Aren’t you at least happy to see me here, my dear boy?” Juliet pursed her lips. “You know, I’ve travelled almost 6000 kilometres from State just so I could see you, and here you are, already s
Yesterday, she thought that it would be Claire, but look who’s here, another woman named Janine.How can he have the nerve to bring different women inside? It somehow made her annoyed. To add up, Nancy’s taunts whenever she walked past by at her. “And speaking of the wife.” She would chuckled behind Anna. She would ignored it, but Nancy really knows how to get on her. Anna would walk away, but the encounter won’t even end there. This literally drives Anna crazy. Can’t she see that she have already enough? “Tch.” Anna clicked her tongue, sipping from her freshly made juice as she watched Janine and Romanov being all lovey dovey together. It was as if they are a couple themselves, but why do she cares? He can fuck whoever he wanted anyway. It doesn’t concern Anna even the slightest or did it? “Lady Janine is young master’s second or how I can put it into words, the second woman whose marriage has been rejected by himself.” Luna, one of the maids, whom Anna have gotten on her side
It didn’t take long. Half an hour, multiple unfamiliar cars screeched to a halt right outside the Mason’s mansion. The guards who were on duty looked baffled, they were dumbstruck especially, when men who were clad on expensive black suit marched as if they own the place.“Who are you? Leave this instant or we’re calling the police!”“You can’t just barge in here…!”“What’s all with the commotion?” When Mathew Mason, Anna’s father heard that unknown men were marching into his mansion, he rushed out, but fear engulfs him when he took a peek.They looks intimidating, that mad him scared shitless—but who the hell sent them?“We wanted Anna Mason. Give her to us and nobody needs to be hurt.”Mathew realizes something.Who else would want that little wrench of a daughter he has anyway?Of course it had to be that old man, who had paid for her the previous night! The fact that he fancy Anna made him disgusted at the same time relieved because he gain a lot by selling her, out of the house,
“Romanov Salvador kicked your ass—that’s what has been spreading across the district.” Spencer, one of the youngest Cordova chuckled at him. Alejandro scowled. He is not on the mood to tolerate his taunting. What more was that when his father expressed his disappointment upon telling him how did it goes. Romanov knew the stolen goods and so they are force to pay for it. “Damn it!”SMASH. Alejandro cursed loud. He was swearing. Madly as he pushed away everything on the table. They fell, breaking into pieces, while Spencer laughs. “He really get to you, didn’t he?” He chuckled. Alejandro grabbed him by the collar, “Laugh at me again, and I’ll fucking slit your throat in spite of the fact that you are my brother—”“Are we?” The smile on his lips never left in spite of his threat. “As far as I know, we are not brothers by blood, you do not belong on our family—”Before Spencer could continue to his words, Alejandro punched him on the face.“YOU BASTARD!”He hated it.His growl caught
“How long are you planning to keep Italia here, Gustav?” When Zamiel barged in on his office, Gustavio isn’t surprised either. He just rub his temples, and stared at the latter coldly. “Why do you care?” He was stoic. Zamiel’s jaw clenched. “You’re being an asshole to her, didn’t you know that?” He was sarcastic. Those words were like knives that penetrated deep on Gustavio’s core, but he never wonder why his hate towards Italia was intense. His loathsome, and the way his blood boil, whenever he catch a glimpse of her. Zamiel wouldn’t understand. Nobody would decipher the distraught cause by that woman that there are times where he wished he never met her. If he hadn’t—the tragedy wouldn’t took place. The remnants, the helpless him came back made Gustavio’s chest filled with an uproar. His fury was unending, but his visage remain cold, although the emotions set ablaze were already in flame. “And you are being a bastard.” He gritted his teeth. “Had you forgotten what she did? H
“Director, you wouldn’t believe what we just received this morning!” Jeff, the one who was responsible for the mails disturb Minchin’s office. He was quick on his, and on his hand, he was holding a few mails, but what caught her attention was the brown envelop that he was waiving in front of her. “What is it?” Minchin frowns. She isn’t in the mood, but work is work, and she must deal with it. “See for yourself, because I know for a fact that that it would be a big scoop for our department.” Jeff grins with triumph. What he said made her raised her eyebrows at whatever he might be celebrating to. Minchin reached out for the envelope in his and. But never once had she expected that it would contain photographs. It isn’t shock for her, only when she saw who is in the picture. Minchin lips parted.“Italia?” She asked lowly in utter confusion, but she also relieved. The fact that she looks alright, and not as what the Police says about her being missing. But that doesn’t mean troubl
“So, this is what they are doing while I was mourning for my uncle’s death?” Samantha hisses. She was clenching her teeth, when he manager sends her a copy of a published newspaper that includes Italia and Zamiel’s photograph although blurred. But that isn’t what makes her blood boiled to anger. It was an image that was spreading on the Internet that shows Gustav and Italia on a fancy diner. “Damn it!” She throws it away. Jake blew out a loud breathe, “If you are going to mourn her all to yourself, you wouldn’t accomplish anything, Sam.” He looked at her, there is this sudden flash of annoyance on his orbs. “While that bastard was enjoying himself out there. Is that what you really wanted, huh?”“Shut up!” Samantha clenched her teeth. She’s no fool. She knew that he has point, but what can she do now? The media was laughing at her [maybe]. Now that they are seeing Italia being dated by Gustav himself. They may have been mocking behind, and making fun of the supposed fiancée. “Da
