Clara looked back at the loving couple and felt her mood turn incredibly sour when she saw that they did not wait for her to take her leave before getting into a compromising and intimate position. She couldn’t help but roll her eyes at how inappropriate they were in the office. ‘Can’t they control themselves, or better still get a room for goodness?’ Clara complained to herself, feeling nauseous and the scene before her. This is also one of the reasons why she disliked Chistine, she doesn’t compose herself and can’t refuse it at times. Clara was aware that there are times a couple might get carried away by their emotion but it wasn’t the case for christine. Thinking about it now, Clara couldn’t but believe that Mark never loved Eva because there was never a time she had seen him get intimate with Eva when she was still his fiance. He always had a frown on his anytime she visited, probably because he heard news that eva had caused trouble again somewhere. Clara couldn’t understand ho
The living room was filled with the sound of a hauntingly sorrowful melody. Along the way, she began to sing the lyrics of the song that came to her mind at the moment. It was one of her favorite songs which was sung by the artist Adele - Someone Like you.Eva forgot all of her worries at the moment and began playing the keys of the piano to match the song.“I heard that you're settled down.That you found a girl and you're married nowI heard that your dreams came trueGuess she gave you things, I didn't give to youOld friend, why are you so shy? Ain't like you to hold back or hide from the light.I hate to turn up out of the blue, uninvited But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight itI had hoped you'd see my faceAnd that you'd be reminded that for me, it isn't over.Nevermind, I'll find someone like youI wish nothing but the best for you, too"Don't forget me” I beg I remember you said“Sometimes , it last in love, but sometimes it hurts instead" A memory flooded through
"I've told you to stop cutting me off like that. And yes, you can. I'm only agreeing to let you go because I need your full attention tomorrow at the fashion show. The last thing I want is for you to make a whole mess of everything, I don't really care if the show gets ruined but I'm worried about your public image." Ella remarked with a serious expression. She didn't want Nathalia to make a fool out of herself tomorrow if she kept looking dull like this.“What did you take me for? Even if I'm not in a good mood, you should know that I have always put on the best facial expression on my face when it comes to working." Nathalia grumbled while crossing her arms in front of her chest. Her mood was already starting to change to her usual self without her realizing it.“Then I shouldn't bother with booking the flight since you are confident in yourself." Ella replied.“No, of course not. But what about the fashion show? Wouldn't going to Miami take more time?" Nathalia asked.“It won't. It
“ I will handle the consequences later. Break the speed limit.”Ray was a little surprised at his order, but nonetheless, followed it like it was the law. Less than a few seconds, he was speeding down the highway , dodging cars, and breaking into the city streets. He drove the black Bentley Bentaya to its limit, like a car racer with a heart of frenzy for speed.Eva was too busy daydreaming out of the window to even hear the whisper coming from her phone in the background. She pressed a finger onto the window and started tracing out the people below that looked like ants with a blank and bored expression on her face.She didn’t realize that her emotions were growing unstable as if she was taken back to the version of her from nine months ago. She remembers herself swearing to her grandfather back when she used to live with the Black family before coming back to miami. Goerge had asked her to promise him that she would keep her emotions under control. That was the only thing he asked h
“Don’t lie to me, Evangeline.” Damien’s voice was so soft despite him calling her by her full name. She felt a warm and fuzzy feeling within her when she heard his voice.“Now, be a good girl and open the door.” Damien said, knocking on the door, waiting patiently for her to open the door. He didn't ask which apartment she was staying at because he was already aware of the apartment she was in, thanks to the information Shane had gathered about. However, he needed her to open the door for him, because unlike when he carried to her other apartment he was able to easily unlock her apartment door because of her fingerprints and her gullibility to mumble answers to the questions he was asking her while she was asleep.Eva felt a slight buzzing in her head and her cheeks felt warm. Stumbling her way to the door, she opened it to see him standing in front of her in all of his full glory. She couldn’t control herself and got herself mesmerized and captivated by him again. The lights from the
Damien raised a brow at how she didn’t try to argue with him. He knew the alcohol tended to lower one’s inhibitions and reveal their true self. Does she always act like a docile kitten when she has a drink? He couldn’t help but pat her head lightly for her good behavior. “Did you eat something?” He knew she often skips meals, and he wanted to find out if she was drinking on an empty stomach.“ I don't want to eat.” She stubbornly replied, walking away from him feeling the desire to lay down and sleep. “You have to eat something, little one.” He grabs her wrist, pulling her closer to him. “But, i’m not hungry-” “Your stomach says otherwise.” he said, remembering how her stomach made a growl sound every time she refused to eat in front of him. She blushed at his words and tried to push him away, but he gently kept his hold on her.“Don’t be stubborn.” He curled an arm around her waist and a smile appeared on his face when he saw how she didn't try to push him away like she normally
“I can never change the past. Whenever I close my eyes ,all I see are the images of the people I broke, the bonds I severed, and all the awful things I have done! I’m such a bad person, I'm a villain , and even at my wedding-” Eva's voice became muffled when she was suddenly pulled into a tight hug by Damien. For the first time, he saw her in her vulnerable state. His impression of her had always been of someone who is confident, daring and feisty. He didn’t know this was how she thought about herself?“You said it yourself, the past can never be changed, my dear kitten. Instead of burying yourself in the past, learn from it. See it as a meaningful lesson and let it go. Besides, nobody is pure in this world, we all have done bad things, not just you. Everyone just has the limit of the bad things they’ve done and how long they can hide it. You were born and trained in a family that had reached its peak by being ruthless and eliminating everyone that stands in their way. Being kind to
Nathalia, whose plane was supposed to land very early in the morning had some delaymeny issues, so Ella had no choice but to rebook her flight for the next plane and she just arrived in Miami about an hour ago. Nathalia pouted and saw her blank screen. She had been spamming Eva's phone with messages and attempting to calm her multiple times to inform her that she was around and was on her way to her apartment- which was Sunset Condo, the current apartment that she knew Eva was living in, but she wasn't responding like usual.Knowing her best friend's behavior, she would probably still be hurled up in her room sleeping like an old lady with no plans of getting up. “Shouldn't she be awake by now? I still don't understand why she has to sleep for so long, it's not like she needs any beauty sleep unlike me?” Nathalia fumed angrily, she climbed out of the black luxurious car, Ella had prepared to pick her from the airport when she arrived in Miami.She pulled out her big sunglasses from
