When Eva walked out of the main hotel exit, she realized that it was already late outside, so she made her way to the road side where she waved her hand to stop a taxi. She told the driver her destination after taking her seat in the back seat. Eva looked outside of the car window, watching the people walking in the streets and light flickering of different colors adoun the street lamps and different buildings as they drove past. Some of the people she laid eyes on were walking alone, some with their kids and some were in the arms of their lovers. It was such a beautiful sight that Eva wanted to have but she didn't have the chance to get. Eva had always wanted a complete family, she so badly wished for a loving family one that her mother couldn't have. However,.things went south for her, because the man she expected to help her make her dream of having a beautiful loving family actually betrayed her without a second thought.The car stopped at the red light, making Eva scan the crowd
After 30 minutes of silent driving, they finally arrived at her destination. Eva paid the cab driver his money before she got out of the cab and made her way to the entrance of the building. The moment entered the lobby she was immediately greeted by the two receptionists sitting behind their desks. They were also the same ladies Eva had encountered the day she went to take the delivery box she received from Damien. Eva quirked a brow at the gesture of the two ladies, because of the smile on the face of both ladies. But then she ignored them and made her way to the elevator, she didn't see the elevator hostess but she still entered the elevator.The elevator dinged, indicating that Eva had reached the floor she was heading to, so she stepped out of the elevator and made her way to her apartment door. After entering her security password, she opened the door to enter her apartment.However, the next thing Eva saw in her house made her eyes widen in bewilderment and shock. ‘Did I ente
A few minutes later, Eva stepped out of the bathroom wearing a blue pyjamas and tying her hair up in a bun. She made her way to the out of the room to the kitchen to grab some water to drink. After pouring herself a glass of water and drinking to her heart content, Eva was about to leave the kitchen when she spotted her living and saw how messy they actually were due to the annoying rose flowers that were in the living room.A scowl appeared on her face, feeling pissed again at the sight before she walked back into her room. ******The next morning.Eva called the receptionist on the first floor and ordered them to hire a few cleaners to come come and clear out the mess in her apartment because she couldn't spend another day seeing those flowers lieing around on her floor. After some mintues later, the cleaners came up to her apartment and she went out to open the door for them in order for them to cleaning up the trash.It took at least six cleaners to get rid of all the roses. De
“What sort of response is that? Did you even use your brain before you speak to me?” Matthew remarked.Eva raised a brow at his remark, she wasn't even offended at all by his insult. In fact, she was a little bit glad that Matthew was burning up in rage which she found more satisfying than the food she was eating. She grabbed the glass of orange juice and took a sip out of it. “What response were you anticipating? Were you expecting me to tell you that we had a great time and it seems like my date took interest in me? Father, gone were those days when you force me to go on business dates for you and impress your business partners for you. If you want the full details of what happened yesterday at the date, why don't you ask Laura to call my date and ask for the information since she was the one that set me up with him, or maybe you were the one that instructed her to pick Lucas asy date since you're quite close with his family.” Eva replied in a cold and dry tone. She was already sic
Damien frowned when he heard his grandfather, he knew this was the reason why the old man was calling him endlessly. They have both been on this marriage issue for a very long time and this matter was also the cause of why Damien has refused to go to visit his grandfather or even call him on a regular basis.Whilst Damien was thinking about this, his mind wandered off to yesterday when he offered Eva the marriage deal and she refused it. ‘Could it be that she already has a man?’ he thought and remembered that Eva indeed had a date with another man yesterday. He made a mental note to instruct Shane to do some research about the man Eva went to meet yesterday. Putting that aside, he turned his attention back to his grandfather.“Is this all of the reason why you're calling me?” He asked.“This is an important matter…..you ignorant brat! Don't you dare hang up the call!” The old man warned him. He knew that Damien was capable of doing such a thing.Damien raised his brow at his grandfat
When Laura realized what the nannies she hired did, she couldn't let the news that she wasn't being a good mother out to the public. She performed one of her dirty tricks among other high class ladies and told the lies that Eva was the one that made those nannies act that way because she was jealous that she was the one that gave birth to an heir. It was since then, Eva had been branded as an evil jealous grill till today where she was known as a spiteful woman in the society. Because Eva's nanny was the one that took care of the baby, Eva grew closer and fond of the child. She even treated him like her real brother, despite the fact that she didn't like his mother. When Eva was fifteen years old, the child was already eight years old and unfortunately their nanny died of lung cancer. It was also at that time Eva started her modeling career so she was always around much to take care of the kid any longer except for the times she spent with him any time she went to pick him up from
“Haha…..you make it sound like I'm your housewife.”. Eva joked at her, making Nathalia pout her face. She stood up from the couch and grabbed the shopping bags before she made her way to the kitchen. “It isn't a bad thing for me to miss my best friend cooking. I'm glad that you didn't waste your time at home without doing something.” Nathalia retorted as she also grabbed the rest of shopping bags on the chair and followed behind Eva to the kitchen.“Like what?” Eva' asked, her back facing Nathalia as she was busy watching the vegetables that she had bought.“Of course, cooking.” Nathalia responded, walking closer to Eva and hugged her from behind while wrapping her arms around Eva's waist.Eva chuckled at Nathalia's gesture, if someone were to see them like this, they would actually misunderstood that they both Eva and Nathalia were lovers. Eva didn't bother to stop Nathalia because she was already used to it and she also acted that way whenever she was with Nathalia.“Now that you d
“How is the old man?” Damien questioned, referring to his grandfather.as he followed Philip who was leading the way to his grandfather.“What do you expect, young master? He is fine….apart from missing you since you haven't visited in a long time now.” Phillip truthfully informed him.“I see…..he is not a kid that needs my attention.” Damien muttered.“Haha…..at this age young master, we elderly people need a lot of attention because we are at the stage where we feel that we would leave this world soon, so we are always happy to have our kids and grandchildren around at all times.” Phillip chuckled as he lectured Damien.Steve Steel was the oldest employee in the Cross household and his family had also served the family the longest. Steve came from a rich family- the Steel family which was one of the richest second-tier families in California. However, they have also served the Cross family for generations. Since Steve had decided to continue serving the Cross family, he had one of hi
