Entangled with my Lifelong Enemy Chapter 11: Her condition
Coming back into the hall was a big mistake, Zendaya thought to herself as the moment she stepped in, the host took her around, introducing her to some huge people in the entertainment industry. These were people her father could get her into a meeting with, but not wanting to be disrespectful, she allowed the host to cart her away. It was what led to her current situation, as the moment she had concluded her talks with those notable people, she was bombarded by the people she was currently with. It was obvious they were just looking for answers from her so they could gossip about it and thankfully, Jayden had arrived As much as he was an asshole to her, he was more than capable of handling the people who had surrounded her as he had an infamous reputation of being cruel just like the rest of the men from his family.“We were just offering our condolences,” the woman who had asked the questions smiled nervously.“It's a birthday party and a fundraiser, why don't you all go over th

“Do you need to go to the doctor?” He asked Zendaya, who was looking distantly at him. “No, I just need a moment to catch my breath,” she told Jayden as she subconsciously held his hand and squeezed it. Moments like this were when she wished to commit murder, as it was her father's ex-fiance that had been responsible for what happened to her. From time to time, she would experience weakness, as it was an after-effect of the condition. It was nothing too serious compared to when she had been younger and had the condition in full effect, but she still hated it. Taking in a deep breath, she did as the doctor had asked whenever such happened, and gradually she found herself coming back to normal. As soon as she was back, she realized that he had been holding Jayden's hand, and she proceeded to let go of it. However, he didn't let go of her. “Get up, we're leaving!” He deadpanned in a final tone, and Zendaya stood up. She followed silently and they headed outside. “I have my own ca

Zendaya's eyes slowly fluttered open, and she found herself staring at an unfamiliar ceiling which looked strangely familiar. ‘What?!’ She mumbled in confusion as she sat up. When she looked around, she realized that the room looked like the one in Jayden’s mansion. As soon as that thought came to her head, she realized that she didn't remember getting home after falling asleep. Looking down, she saw that she was still in the same dress from the party.“Jayden!” She yelled in anger as she got out of the bed and stepped out of the room.When she was out, she was met by a helper who was cleaning a vase. “Where's Jayden?” She inquired. “In his room, ma’am” the helper answered and Zendaya immediately headed there. How dare he bring her back to his mansion, especially after what had happened last time. Upon getting there, she didn't bother knocking and she barged in. “Jayden, you…” she paused as she was met with a half-naked Jayden who had just stepped out of the shower.“Put some clot

Either Matthew was dumb, or he was desperate to tell her such a thing. Shaking her head, she clutched her stomach when it growled angrily, and she was reminded of the fact that she had not eaten anything since last night.Eating outside was something she never did as she had fears of being poisoned as it had happened before. Without wasting time, she headed out of her room and headed downstairs so she could eat something.At least, if he was going to trap her there, the least she could do was eat. “Good morning, ma’am, should I serve the food,” a helper stepped forward and Zendaya shook her head.“Don’t worry, I’ll do it myself, you can go,” she dismissed and as soon as she was alone, her eyes widened in shock when she saw that all of her favourite dishes. Was Jayden behind this, or was it a coincidence. No, it couldn’t be the former, as Jayden didn't know her favourite foods. “Hmm,” she shrugged casually. Either way, she was going to eat, and that was what she proceeded to do.“Isn’

“Don't you dare,” Jayden hissed in annoyance just as his mother let go of his ear. “Watch me,” she stated, and he took one step just so he could stop her from doing so. However, his mother stopped him from doing so. “Go drop her home,” Jasmine instructed Jayden. “I'll ask the driver to drop her off,” Jayden told his mother. “No, you are,” Jasmine put her foot down and Jayden sighed as he walked out to grab his car key. “Don't hesitate to call me if he troubles you,” Jasmine told Zendaya, who nodded and left. She heaved a sigh of relief as she did due to the fact that Jasmine didn’t ask how she came to be in her son’s house. “You’re going to pay for that,” Jayden told her when they got into the car. “Don’t you dare blame me for what happened. I asked you multiple times to drop me off, and you refused,” Zendaya retorted as she buckled her seatbelt. Typical Jayde, blame her for when he got into trouble due to one of her mistakes. “Make sure it’s strapped in properly because you

“Didn’t you sleep?” Zendaya heard the makeup artist ask her as she yawned for the umpteenth time. She was currently getting ready for the shoot she had and she wanted nothing more than to return home.“I did, before I came here. I don't know why I'm so tired,” she responded as she yawned again.Maybe it was the event of the past few days, she muttered to herself. “It's understandable, you've been a lot in the past few days,” the makeup artist remarked, his voice full of pity. Zendaya smiled however, she didn't respond to him. She hated people feeling pity for her especially when it was something she was trying to forget. Even though she understood where they came from, it still irked her especially if the person wasn't a friend or her family.“Alright, I'm all done,” she heard him say to her and she only took a glance in the mirror before she got up. The faster they took the pictures, the faster she would get to go home.Upon reaching the stage, she noticed the man whom she was go

Zendaya hissed in pain as shards of glass cut through her skin. She didn’t however pay much attention to it, as what mattered was getting away from the crazy men who were destroying her car.“Come out here, bitch!” The man who had bashed the driver’s window yelled as he put his hand into the car and grabbed her hoodie.Zendaya didn’t hesitate in moving closer and hitting the man in the throat, which caused him to let go of her and gasp in pain. “You’re going to pay for that,” the other man said as he opened the car door and got into the car.He moved to punch Zendaya to incapacitate her, but she ducked and hit the side of his stomach. Even though she was trained, she was still at a disadvantage due to the position she was in. Her gun was locked in the glove compartment and there was no way she would be to grab it with the men around.Seeing that the other one was still preoccupied with his throat, she opened the door and got out. As soon as she was out, the first guy forgot all about

“Where’s your first-aid kit?” Jayden asked as soon as they got to her house.“Oh, don’t worry, I’ll do it myself,” Zendaya replied, and Jayden turned to glare at her.“Must you be so stubborn?” He asked, just as Zendaya’s helper, who had opened the door, came back with a first aid kit. Walking up to her, he collected the first aid kit. “Sit, let me clean your wounds,” he said to her, and Zendaya shook her head. Seeing that she wasn’t going to listen to him, he reached out and grabbed her hand.“What are you…” the rest of Zendaya’s words got swallowed in her throat as Jayden pulled her down to sit. She didn’t however argue further with him, as she let him do what he wanted.It wasn’t the first time Jayden was assisting her with cleaning her wounds, but it was the first time she was feeling this way because of it. The fact that she couldn’t explain the feeling just made it even more confusing.“Ah,” she hissed when Jayden started cleaning her wounds. “It burns,” she complained as she t

Entangled with my Lifelong Enemy Chapter 138: The End
Two Months LaterThe Gerano mansion was buzzing with energy as the family and other well-wishers gathered to celebrate Jayden's birthday. The air was filled with laughter, music, and the clinking of glasses as the sun began to set. Jayden stood near the center of the room, talking to friends when he caught sight of Lucas approaching him.“Excuse me,” he said to the men he was talking to and he walked towards Lucas.“Enjoying the party?” Jayden asked with a smirk.Lucas shot him a look, which showed that he had been forced to be there probably by his wife and daughter. “I still don't like you. Don’t push it,” he warned.Jayden pouted as he pretended to be sad. “Don’t say that father-in-law,” he said and he had to stifle his laughter at the horrified expression Lucas always gave whenever he called him that. After he was discharged from the hospital, he and Lucas sat down to have a chat about Zendaya and his relationship.Lucas' words were simple, “Hurt her and you die.”He wondered w

Jayden's losing consciousness lingered in Zendaya's mind as Lucas led her out of the dark, suffocating room. Her heart pounded as she hoped Jayden was okay. “Get an ambulance here immediately!” Justin barked at an officer as they exited the building.Zendaya stumbled slightly, her legs weak from exhaustion and fear. Lucas caught her, steadying her with a reassuring hand on her shoulder.“You’re safe now,” Lucas said gently.“But Jayden…” Zendaya whispered, her eyes never leaving Justin’s retreating figure as he carried Jayden toward an ambulance that had just arrived.“He’ll be fine,” Lucas assured her. “You need to rest as well.”Paramedics rushed to Justin, quickly taking Jayden onto a stretcher.Blood seeped through his bandages, and Zendaya’s stomach churned at the sight. She tried to follow, but Lucas held her back.“You need to get checked too,” Lucas insisted, gesturing to another paramedic who was approaching her.“No,” Zendaya protested, shaking her head. “I need to go wit

The deafening sound of the gunshot echoed through the room, and Zendaya braced herself for the end. But to her surprise, she felt no pain. Slowly, she opened her eyes, her heart pounding in her chest.Anil stood frozen, his eyes wide with shock. And her mouth fell open when she saw that he had been shot in the shoulder. Regardless, he proceeded to shoot her once again and another shoot to his legs brought him down on his knees."Step away from her!" a familiar voice roared with anger as he stepped into the room.It was Jayden. He looked disheveled, and her heart bled when she saw his physical condition. “Jayden?” Zendaya called her voice a mix of relief and disbelief.Anil snarled, raising his gun to fire, but Jayden didn’t hesitate. Another shot rang out, and this time, it was to his palm.Anil groaned in the weapon slipping from his grasp and Jayden kicked it away as he then pounced on Anil.“Jayden, he'll die,” Zendaya stated when Anil had turned into a bleeding mess.Her words
Entangled with my Lifelong Enemy Chapter 135: Goodbye, Zendaya
Zendaya’s head throbbed as she slowly opened her eyes. She saw she was in a dark room and a frown appeared on her face. Her body ached as she tried to move, only to find herself bound to a chair. Her wrists were tied tightly behind her back, the coarse rope digging into her skin as she moved. Panic immediately set in as she struggled, her breaths quick and shallow.The faint creak of a door opening sent chills down her spine as she turned in the direction of where the sound had come from. “Who’s there?” she demanded, her voice hoarse. “What do you want?”The figure didn’t respond immediately, stepping closer until the overhead light flickered on. The sudden brightness made her wince, but when her eyes adjusted, her blood ran cold as she saw who was in front of her.“Anil?” she whispered in disbelief.He stood before her, a cruel smile on his face that sent shivers down her spine. He looked different his usually composed demeanor replaced with something sinister and there was a

The fluorescent lights of the hospital hallway greeter Jasmine and Justin rushed toward the ER, their steps hurried and frantic. The receptionist’s voice on the phone had been calm but grave when she’d informed them of Jayden’s accident. Jasmine’s heart hadn’t stopped pounding since as her mind conjured every worst-case scenario about Jayden and how he was doing. Justin walked beside her, his face pale and tight with worry.“What do they mean someone hit him and then disappeared?” Jasmine muttered, her voice trembling. “Who does that? Who leaves someone on the road like that?”Justin placed a hand on her back, and he rubbed it gently. Though his expression was grim. “We’ll find out. Let’s focus on Jayden first.”The moment they reached the nurse’s station, a staff member gestured them toward a private room. “He’s stable,” the nurse reassured them quickly, seeing the panic etched on their faces, and it made them calm down a bit. “The doctors did a thorough examination, and his in

Jayden drove aimlessly through the city, the steady hum of the car engine doing little to drown out the storm raging in his mind. As he remembered his father’s revelation, he felt suffocated. His hands clenched the steering wheel with such intensity that his knuckles turned white, and the faint creak of the leather beneath his grip was the only sound competing with his labored breathing.Jasmine isn’t my mother.The thought repeated itself over and over, echoing in his mind. He couldn’t believe it. She was the woman who had raised him, loved him, been there for him through every high and low. She wasn’t his real mother.Every memory of her felt tainted now, overshadowed by the truth. The fact that they had hid it from him for all of his life and probably wouldn’t have told him had the article not come out was a slap to his face.The betrayal hit him in waves, each one stronger than the last. Why hadn’t they told him? Why had they waited until the news forced their hand? He thoug
Entangled with my Lifelong Enemy Chapter 132: The truth revealed
Jayden drove home in a haze, his hands gripping the steering wheel, and he imagined his being someone's neck. He subconsciously tightened his grip on the steering wheel until his knuckles turned white. The article, the headline that Jasmine wasn’t his real mother, echoed in his mind. His mind struggled to make sense of it, but something deep inside him was beginning to put two and two together, and something began to shift. ‘You’re being unreasonable,’ he muttered to him as he shut those thoughts out of his head.The drive home felt longer than it should have been, and when he finally arrived at the mansion, the weight of it all pressed heavily on his chest.As he entered the house, a strange sense of heaviness hit him. It was more than just the eerie quiet that settled over everything; there was something palpable in the air. “Your parents are in their room, sir.” The helper who opened the door informed him.Jayden nodded, his heart pounding harder as he made his way upstairs.
Entangled with my Lifelong Enemy Chapter 131: The article
Zendaya stirred awake, the first rays of sunlight peeking through the curtains. The room was warm, and the faint smell of Jayden lingered in the air, a mix of his cologne and something undeniably him. Opening her eyes, she blinked a few times before turning her head to see Jayden sleeping beside her, his face relaxed and peaceful.Her lips curled into a soft smile as she took in the sight of him. He was lying on his stomach, the sheets were around his waist, leaving his broad back and a glimpse of his toned arms on display to her.His dark hair was messy, sticking up in different directions from her fingers running through it last night.Last night. Her cheeks warmed at the memory.Last night, he’d truly proven he was a beast, just as he’d promised. The passion, the fire, the way he’d driven her to the edge over and over, it left her breathless just thinking about it and the heat rushed to her legs even though he was sore. A smile appeared on her face as she brushed her fingers o
Entangled with my Lifelong Enemy Chapter 130: Unexpected twist
The room was dimly lit, the only source of illumination being the faint glow from a laptop screen on a cluttered desk. .Papers and files were scattered, some bearing Jayden’s name in bold letters. The two men stood on opposite sides of the room, their faces partially hidden.The taller man paced, his hands shoved deep into his pockets as his mind raced. He finally stopped, turning to face his boss, who was seated behind the desk.“We’ve got something big,” the taller man said, his voice laced with excitement and malice. “Something that’ll change everything, boss.”The boss didn’t respond immediately. He leaned back in his chair, his sharp eyes narrowing as he studied the man before him. “What is it?” he asked, his tone calm but deadly.The taller man hesitated for a moment before stepping forward and placing a file on the desk. “It’s about Jayden,” he said, tapping the file with a finger. “Something that has been hidden.”The boss arched a brow, his interest piqued. He opened the
