Jackson was a controlling kind. I mean, didn’t one ask if the girl wanted to come one a date or not? Yeah, I liked him and he knew. That didn’t mean he'd take advantage of that.

Ok, Eleanor.

Calm your horses and stop over thinking this?

I was really becoming nervous about it all. I had a date with Jackson and I needed Chloe’s help with my outfit. And, she was not in the best of moods right now. Her breakup had made her a shadow of herself.

So, I pondered on what to do exactly. As an idea sprung into my head, which made me stand up abruptly. I grabbed my purse, sunshades and scarf to disguise before I stepped out of the house.

I had personally called the chauffeur the company had assigned to me. After he arrived, he drove me to Chloe’s house after I had directed him to the way. I thanked him before walking to her doorstep. I pressed the door bell but no one had replied so I had no option than to enter her apartment.

“Chloe?” I called out

Eleonor is very immature. Writer please give credit to her role as a professional. Her attitude is not fit for a professional. Dont make her character like a teenager.

    Chloe’s PovWaking up in the night, I expected to see Eleanor beside me but she wasn’t. I know what you’re thinking…that I’m selfish. Yeah, I know. You couldn’t blame me, could you? With this breakup, I was experiencing one of the bad moments of my life and I needed some company. Being with people was better than be alone right now.When I was lonely, my mind drifted to the entire break-up and I went back to square one once again. I could cry so much for lots of minutes, even though it wouldn’t change anything between myself and Matt. Remembering the entire scene between himself and Mia made me want to puke. It fucking hurt and even threatened to rip me all apart.I needed a break. I needed a getaway. Something that’d make me forget about all this.Alcohol.I thought, standing up. I went to the fridge, opening it that instant. I looked around only to discover there was nothi

    I could swear I didn’t just hear my ears. In fact, I didn’t hear right. Me and Liam? On a trip? This was nearly impossible. Gosh, this couldn’t be happening! I had to do something about it.“No, just no!” I yelled, with a reluctant and appalling expression on my face. This caused all attention to be directed to me that instant. The announcer, Mariam, who was the head of the directing department, focused her towards me too, with an alarmed expression on her face.“Is everything ok, Miss Nikki?” She asked me gently. My gaze moved to notice Liam’s. For some weird reason, there was a slightly amused expression on his face. Knowing he was definitely enjoying this; I gave a frown before speaking.“I can’t be paired with boss Liam.” I seethed. I watched the look of horror of everyone face. I knew that look. It was a look of ‘no one should double-cross the boss’ but that wasn’t the point was it?I would do anything not to go on a trip with hi

    I got to the hospital afterwards to pick up mum. I was like practically the happiest person on earth right now. I mean, mum didn’t have to stay in the hospital again. Her surgery has also been successful. This made my feelings go beyond words.“Mum!” I exclaimed the moment I had seen her. She had dropped in weight from her usual self. But, at least, her mental health was no more a threat as before.“Eleanor,” Mum constructed with a warm expression written all over her features. I went to hug her immediately. She shook a little from the impact since her belongings were in her hands. “Oh… sorry let me get that!” I told her with an apologetic expression. My hands moved to get the bag she was holding. Mum looked at me with an appreciative smile. There was something about different about her face.Urrgh! I missed her.I signed some documents and she got discharged, since Liam had paid all the bills from our agreements

    “A-A room?” Furrowing my brows, I asked her. She smiled before replying me back.“Yes, a room.” With assertiveness, she replied this time. I didn’t even know when I banged my hands on the table, fisting them in anger.The female eyed the both of us as she waited for a response. When none of us spoke, she cleared her voice.“We'll pay double if you look for another room at all costs.” Liam uttered. His business man skills was indeed highlighting here, I guess. I didn’t even know how things ran here, but what I was sure of was that I was certainly not going to share a room with him.He made certain hormones rise in me and I couldn’t risk it.“I’m sorry but that’s not possible right now. The room occupants are the blood relations of the owner of this place, that’s why,” she calmly explained. A pained expression ran through the face the instant she said that.The female leaned in with his exposed cleavage, directly in front of him. Liam’s h

    Curious.Those two syllable words were in tune with my thoughts right now. I was curious about the entire sight. That alone made me wonder so much, for that I didn’t even know when I started drooling.As my heart stopped, my hands became so sweaty, even if I had just bathed. It startled me to see this much of a male's skin, who turned out to be Liam. He was someone I wanted to despise badly. But with his body, I couldn’t help myself.Why did all bad guys have to be good looking?Urrgh…I might as well need help tonight if I wanted to sleep without certain desires lurking in me.My hands were on my chest as I admired the entire sight. His towel, ridden dangerously low beneath his bottom line. As he moved, I could see his toned arbs. His hair over his face made the scenario more dangerous. Why did he have those abs…My hands weakly held my towel as I made weak steps towards him. I needed him to excuse me. I nee

    “Your spot? Don’t see how this could be your spot. I mean, it doesn’t have your name written on it.” she responded, asking me with a savage look. A scowl was on her face and there was a hint of boldness running through. I couldn’t help but wonder what gave her the balls. My fists tightened and I clenched my teeth in anger.But I didn’t just want to give her the satisfaction she wanted. Thus, I folded my arms, averting my face to Liam’s direction. I could not stand the sight of the both of them together, for some reason.A part of me wanted to disfigure this doll and break her. But I didn’t know how things ran here. Getting into trouble with cops and law wasn’t what I wanted. This was why I was going to ignore her bitchy attitude.“Clearly, you can see the man next to you is my man. If you had any humanity left, your sixth sense would tell you to stay away.” I let out, after a sigh, folding my arms. This was the politest response my mouth could ever give

    Liam’s PovI shouldn’t have done that.Pushing red to the extreme. These were not my intentions. I only wanted to her to discover what she actually felt for me. This was because she denied her body reacted to mine, claiming otherwise. She always went on, claiming to be playing the role of my fake girlfriend.But it was something more than that.I just knew it was something more than that.Earlier, I couldn’t have her showing that much amount of skin to the outsiders. This was why I opted to leave instead, during the argument. My other kiss with that slutty receptionist was to pull her strings. I wanted red to realize what she felt for me. To realize that her jealousy only existed because she was beginning to fall for me.Guess I tugged too hard.Because red had disappeared into the thin air, with me left to discover her whereabout.She had already missed her rehearsals.

    “I understand now, Liam. I get it all. Don’t come looking for me when things go bad.”These were the words I had uttered to Liam before I left the local hotel.When things go bad.Oh Eleanor, who did make things go bad now?In just a few hours away from Liam, I managed to put myself in this amount of trouble. My mind encrypted this as I sized up Liam, who stood directly in front of me, with a cool expression, overriding his features.“Li- “I called out, but didn’t finish up, bracing myself before speaking again.“Err…Boss Liam...” I corrected, trailing out.He grinned widely at the correction I made, giving a terrific expression. Walking up to me, he took my hands in his, holding it like it was something he adored most in his world.“What happened, red? How did you end up here?” he grimaced.“I-It’s not what you think. I-I would never commit something against the law—”“Shh,” he interrupted, with his index finger

    Liam’s Pov In the right way, Reyes had been dealt with. His properties would be seized by the government, in a few days from now. Which only meant one thing— this was it. “Red…” I trailed on my words, stretching my hands towards her. We were both inside the ambulance van, by each other’s side. Seemed like I took the most injuries, yet somehow, I had been able to wake up and fight. “Liam.” she breathed out, replying. “I-It’s all over…still unbelievable. I thought…I- thought we were all going to…” “Shhh.” I urged, placing a hand on her lip and silencing her. I couldn’t imagine ever losing her, so I couldn’t even bear to think of it. My injury was external, thankfully, she had a few scratches. But she still needed to be checked on, and thoroughly examined. In the other ambulance van was Chloe. Jackson had gone to her,

    I screamed and screamed my guts out, but it was all futile. They kept dragging us both, till we reached beside the truck.“Now.”One of them ordered. Some black van pulled over. That instant, black sacks were put over my head. I struggled as I was being put in.“You don’t have to do this, you know.”I muttered. “Shut up, bitch.”Some rough voice sneered, irritatingly.I bit my lips, not knowing what step to take again. My entire body froze, as I stopped struggling out of fear. Hands shaking rapidly, as the van drove speedily.Liam was just beside me and he was still passed out.I wondered how hard the accident hit him. I needed to manipulate our way, out of here, since he won’t wake up.“We can pay three times the amount he’s paying you.”I attempted to convince that again.“Tsk…that’s it.”The va

Chloe popped up on the screen.“Hello.”I called out to the receiver button. Still in the pink fluffy dress I had just used for shoot, my face was caked in a vampiric makeup. That was more of today’s theme, in Pink Moda.“Eleanor…”She trailed out weakly, in a husky tone. I wriggled my brows. “Are you okay, Clo?

Tired of everything.My shitty love life, and the fact that Jackson, who I presently liked, thought of us as friends and nothing else.These were my thoughts as I entered my car, zooming off at high speed. My thoughts drifted to Orange Summers—the only place that I took comfort in.“Chloe, I see you’re here again?” The bar tender called out, as I dragged a stool, sitting on it. Seemed he was used to my presence so much already.“Yeah Ray… I want four bottles of beer, please.”I ordered, bringing my phone out from my purse and settling it on the bar’s table. I texted Eleanor, but it seemed like she was busy with work too.Of recent, she was the only one I turned to in times of need. Friends at my workplace, only remaine

He had to be joking.One morning, just as I was on my way to work, in my disguise outfit, a car pulled over beside me.I totally ignored it, but when it kept on following me, I became insanely creeped out.“HEY!

    “It isn’t funny that your dad, a rich billionaire suddenly wants you back?” Chloe’s words reminisced my head. “Nope…I mean my mum lied to me, Chloe. And I, um…don’t even know if I should be trusting her again.” “Why not, she’s your mum. You should know the type of person she is by now, Eleanor.” “Don’t let some stranger, who was never present ruin that nice relationship between you both. She might not have given you the comfortable life but you turned out right,” She had stated. “I mean, look at you girl. You’re a survivor. As Nikki Fox, the world hated on you but you’re still going.” “What am I going to do, Clo?” Almost at the verge of tears, I had asked. “Talk to your mum, it would make more sense if everyone’s on your side, bestie. We have to bring Mr. Reyes down, if there’s some truth in Liam James’ words.” I jeered back to reality, holding my bag as I walked meekly. Th

    My thoughts were scrambled with yesterday’s incidence the minute I woke up. I remembered drinking to forget it all, but now… I wanted to sleep once more not to even think of it. Mum’s betrayal. Liam’s words about Mr. Reyes. Did she do it to protect me, like she said? Suddenly, flashbacks of last night spinned in my head. “I had a shitty day, Liam. Please make love to me,” Oh no… “We aren’t even in a relationship anymore, remember?” He had tried convincing me out of it, but I still shamelessly pushed on. “I was overshadowed by my own countenance and wishful thinking, for that I’m sorry,” “Now fuck me,” My eyes widened at my words, with my toes entangling each other. It was no wonder I felt sore in between my legs. We did make love last night, for the second time. And we did it countlessly, till we were exhausted. I hope he didn’t wake up.

I put it in my purse, walking to Orange Summers, the only place that seemed to understand me.“And one too, for me.”A familiar low baritone voice, lurked in surprisingly behind me. I looked behind me, only to see Liam clothed in his usual black expensive suit, looking as handsome and gorgeous as ever.He settled on a chair just beside me.I almost couldn’t believe my eyes.“Liam, what are you doing here?”I asked, with a sigh, almost cringing in distress.
