Nathalia let out a tired sigh and raised her hand up to rub her forehead. Maybe she had been a little harsh on Eva. She was just looking out for Eva and totally forgot that her best friend is currently in a tight spot with both her father and stepmother on her neck.“Look, I'm sorry that I yelled at you. I was just watching out for you, you haven't spoken with your uncle for a very long time that I can remember so what if something happened again- anyways, I'm really sorry.” Nathalia genuinely apologizes to Eva. Eva's gaze softened when she heard Nathalia's apology. Even though she understood her worry she wasn't able to control her emotion and also gave her a piece of her mind.“I understand you, Nathy. And I also apologize for speaking to you in that manner, I couldn't control myself." Eva also apologized while staring at Nathalia. There was no way she would be angry at Nathalia for long and same goes for Nathalia as well.“I deserved it, maybe it's the wine that made me react that
Eva parked her car in the parking lot of the apartment complex. She stepped out of the car and headed to the entrance of the building and made her way to the elevator.After Eva entered the security password of her apartment, she opened the door and entered her house. “Finally home." Eva muttered, feeling extremely welcomed by the quietness in her house. She made her way to the couch and dropped her bag and sat down as well. She let out a tired sigh for the nth time as she rested her head backwards and closed her eyes to rest for a little bit. It took Eva some moment to gain her energy before she stood up from the couch and made her way to her bedroom to change out of the dress. “Ah, I miss laying down on my bed!" Eva removed her sneakers and jumped on her bed, turning around and rubbing her hand on the bed.Fifteen minutes later, Eva walked out of her bedroom completely changed out of her clothes and she was currently wearing a sweatpants and big white shirts. Her hair was still ti
“I have a favor." Eva ignored the person's comment, skipped any form of pleasantries and went straight to the point.“You rarely ask me for favors, even though you know my motto already." The male voice continued. “Blood for blood. An eye for an eye, until the world goes blind.” Eva remarked before he could say anything else. “You make it sound like you're a mafia lord." She added, though part of it was true The voice laughed at her remark. “What can I say, in this world we have to have a motto that we go by so that we don't miss our direction. You're still quick witted as I remember. It's such a shame if only you didn't stay in Miami, you would've been able to hold a great position in the family business.” "All of that power and status aren't destined to be mine." Eva mumbled.“Well, unlike your mother you have a genius ability in business, with more proper training you could've easily-” "I wouldn't call it a special ability when I wasn't born with it.” Eva spatted out, cutting h
“You haven't prepared a dress yet! How could you forget about something so important like that?!” Nathalia nervously yelled, she had been too preoccupied with her work to remember about the party. When she remembered, she decided to quickly call Eva and confirm it.“Well, I'm also busy just like you are. Besides, didn't we go shopping last week? You bought so many clothes and dresses for me, I can probably get something to wear out of them.” Eva calmly replied."What?! I can't believe what I'm hearing! You can't wear any of those outdated dresses to the party!” Nathalia yelled.Eva rolled her eyes at Natalia's comment. The dresses she had just casually called outdated actually cost a lot of money to buy and are one of the best designs that a lady would kill to wear. “Why are you getting all worked up? It's just a party that I don't plan to spend much time at.” Eva casually stated. She didn't understand why Nathalia was too worried about what she looked like to the party. She was only
“As expected." Eva gazed at the sky outside her window before opening the bedroom door and walked out to the kitchen. She wasn't in the mood for food so she just prepared a cup of coffee for herself and headed back to the bedroom.Entering the bedroom, she placed the coffee on the bedside table. She opened her wardrobe and grabbed a big scarf and draped it over her body before she grabbed a novel from the small shelf in her room and the coffee then strolled to the small bancoley outside her room window.She had already anticipated that she would not get any sleep not after what happened with her and Nathalia so she rather spent the night away reading and enjoying the beautiful night scene outside her bedroom. ********The next morning, Eva who was lying lazily on her bed woke up from her sleep when she heard her phone ringing beside her.“Gosh! What the hell in the morning!" She groggily mumbled as usual whenever she was awakened by a phone call. Eva removed the blanket off her face
"You know exactly what I'm talking about, Mr. Black. You married my mother off to my father, knowing that my parents have no interest in each other but all because of you only listening to yourself you couldn't see what your daughter wanted." Eva stated, her anger rising up by each moment.“My daughter was getting old and kept refusing all the other men that came for her hand in marriage. Did you expect me to sit down and watch my daughter become an old lady? I had to do what I had to do and that was why I accepted your father to become her husband since he isn't from California. I was only doing this for her happiness.” George explained his reasons. "Well, you never asked my mother if she had someone she liked or not before making a decision for her. She was never happy in that marriage for a day!” Eva yelled over the phone. She remembered those memories when her father always gave her mother cold shoulder whenever she tried to create a conversation between them. “If your parents n
He would not give away his granddaughter that easily and for some reason he was happy that her wedding with Mark which he wasn't invited to didn't work out. That way he can continue to protect her from other men, and because of that he planned to keep more eyes on Eva closely even though he wasn't in Miami.“I'm already on it before you mention it. I'm not letting some cookies-cutter date my nieces at all.” Rapheal remarked.Meanwhile, after Eva hung up the call she placed the phone beside her and fell back to the bed deelo exhausted from the discussion she had with George. “It's just five o'clock in the morning and I'm getting such a call." Eva mumbled as she went back to sleep. It hadn't been up to five minutes when her cellphone rang again, making her groan in anger.“Seriously?!!" Eva yelled and she sat back up and picked up the call.“What is it?" She asked angrily."Stupid child! Is this how you greet your father in the morning?! You're becoming more useless each passing day!!”
Few hours later, Nathalia entered Eva's security password to her apartment and entered the house. She was surprised that she couldn't find Eva sitting down in the living room like usual.“Don't tell me that she is still asleep in bed by this time?" Nathalia muttered to herself and made her way to Eva's room. She opened the door to the room and was only to be greeted with darkness from the room.“I knew that she would still be asleep by this time." Nathalia said under her breath and stepped into the room. “What are you still doing in bed at this time of the day?" Nathalia questioned as she walked towards the window and opened the curtains wide. But Eva was covering her face with the blanket so the sudden brightness didn't wake Eva up.‘This sleepy head.’ Nathalia thought in her mind as she walked towards the bed and grabbed the edge of the blanket before yanking it off Eva's body.“What the fuck!" Eva jolted awake at the sudden movement of her blanket. She had no idea that Nathalia wa
