After spending the rest of the whole time with Eva, Nathalia decided to take leave when it was already late. She would have preferred to stay over but she had to make sure she was home because she had work to do the next day and her Manager- Sarah would skin her alive if she found out that she wasn't at home.Eva closed the door after Nathalia left, she glanced at the mess in the living room and decided to ignore it for the next day because she was already tired from the long day.She fell lazily on her bed and dozed off to sleep.********The next morning, Eva was woken up by the sound of her familiar ringtone next to her. Groaning and grumbling under her breath, she wondered why the people didn't let her sleep. With sleep weighing her down, she rumbled through the bedside table and picked up her phone at the last ring.“Hello……?” Eva's groggily answered, barely able to keep her eyes open.“Gasp! Why do you only pick up on the last ring? Why not first or second? Don't tell me you're
“I almost forgot to tell you this, Boss. I received a message this morning.” Shane announced as he looked at Damien.For the first time since Shane had entered the office, Damien raised his head up to look at Shane. “Tell me.” He ordered.“I received a call and some documents of ownership were sent to me this morning?” Shane stated. A deep frown appeared on Damien's face when he heard Shane. “Ownership of what?” He asked.“A yacht.” Shane wasted no time and revealed it to Damien. “And there is no other information about the person who had bought the yacht.” Shane added on.Damien was silent for a while as he was in a deep thought. However, Shane was confused why his Boss had been silent, without anyone telling him who was behind the yacht he had his hunch that it was none other than Eva who had bought the yacht in return to the house and flowers Damien had sent to her the previous day.Shane couldn't help but secretly admire Eva's courage to go head to head with his Boss. No one ever
“Oh my goodness, who is that beautiful woman? Who is she here to see?” One of the female students in the group of her friends whispered.“I know, right? She is so stunning. Look at her composure.” Another one whispered in support.“I wish I had a big sister like her waiting for me.” The girls gossiped as they walked past Eva to their car.Eva smirked at the comments she heard from the girls. They are still kids, so it's probably that they don't recognize her at all.Glancing at the watch again, she realized that she had been waiting for an extra five minutes and her presence was gaining too much attention which was starting to irritate her. “How long does that brat plan to stay hidden there before he comes out?” Eva mumbled silently to herself as she looked at the school gate. Eva sighted the small bench that was placed not too far from her so she made her way there and sat down while waiting for her brother. Since he had no idea that she was here, she can't blame him for keeping her
“So, if he hadn't called you, you wouldn't have come to see me?” Lucien glared at Eva angrily. He was secretly hoping that Eva had come to check up on him because she missed him but her presence now was due to the fact that Matthew called her.Eva sighed when she heard him. “I'm sorry, I haven't reached out to you for a while now, I have just been busy handling some business.” Eva apologized, feeling guilty for ghosting Lucien for the past few months. “You are not forgiven yet.” Lucien said with a straight face, even though he could tell that Eva was extremely sincere about her apology.“Come on, don't be so hard on me and forgive this sister of yours. How about I make it up to you, hm?” Eva suggested and Lucien turned to look at her with a curious expression. “What?” He asked.“Let me take you out for lunch. I've missed eating with you.” Eva had a smile on her face. If anyone was to see Eva at the moment, they would be surprised to see her having such an expression on her way, she
“Oh my, Lucien! How are you doing? It's been a long time since this big sister saw your cute face.” Nathalia teased as she chuckled slightly. “I'm no longer a kid so stop calling me a cute boy.” Lucien retorted back, but his response only made Nathalia laugh out loud.“You are to both me and your sister. Speaking of her, why is she in a daze? What happened to her?” Nathalia asked, switching the topic back to Eva. “I showed her the most trending news on the internet, perhaps she was shocked to see herself.” Lucien casually replied as he glanced at Eva.“Oh, that's enough for her to be in a daze." Nathalia commented.After a few more seconds of staring at the phone, Eva stretched her hand and grabbed her phone from Lucien who was surprised by his sister's swift movement. “What the hell is this?” Eva demanded from Nathalia, she was still holding Lucien's phone and staring at it intently, hoping it'd disappear the longer she looked at it.“You're back. Anyways, this image is going vira
Eva couldn't tell the reason he was asking her that question all of a sudden but she could roughly guess the meaning of his question.“What do you mean? And what is the reason for asking such question?” Eva acted clueless about what he meant. “You know what I mean. I'm asking if you are feeling okay now after that day? Though my question is a little bit late but it's also your fault.” Lucien replied with a frown on his face. He was a little bit embarrassed that he was just asking the question now, plus he didn't want to mention that he was talking about her failed wedding day.Eva smiled when she looked at Lucien, she knew that it took him a lot of courage to ask her this question because he was being causious that he would reopen her healing wounds.“Oh my, are you worried about me?” Eva asked with a teasing smile plastered on her face.“You bet! Why would I be worried about you? I only asked that because I was just curious seeing how you're smiling from ear to ear.” Lucien quickly
“Come on, you know what I mean. You seem to be making plans with them earlier to hang out, which I hope I didn't ruin by the way?” Eva asked.“Don't you think that question is a little bit too late. Besides I never planned to hangout with them in the first place.” Lucien replied which made Eva smirk at his comment.“Then that means I have you all to myself today.” Eva smiled cheekly at Lucien.“Don't do that.” Lucien rolled his eyes and looked away from Eva. “You're no fun sometimes….” Eva pouted her mouth as she leaned back on the chair. “That reminds me, I heard that you went to a blind date?” Lucien inquired as he looked back at Eva who was still sulking.“Ah, about that…..I did. How did you come to know about that?” Eva peered at Lucien.“Did you think my mother was going to keep her mouth shut after she finally had the chance to hook you up with someone?” Lucien replied, but his voice was lazed with sacarsm. One could tell by the expression on his face that, Lucien wasn't close
However, he was expecting too much from the lady because her next words made him realized that it was useless trying to think that she was an understanding person.“Wow, the guts you have to tell such bullshit! Well, since you are very much aware of the fact that I don't use any other private room except for this one, it would be very best for you to go inside now and tell to evacuate the room this instance. Moreover, if you know that you can't carry out this simple order and task of mine, get me your restaurant manager. I will have you fired on this spot due to the fact that you're very incompetent at doing your job to satisfy a customer.” The lady adamantly refused to comply with the waiter's request. Instead, she tried to threaten the waiter with his job so that he would do what ever she wants.The waiter glanced at her with surprise, even though he was doing his job and duty perfectly that was not an enough excuse if the manager shows up here. If the manager comes, he would be the
