“ Oh my darling I've been so excited all day to see you and look at you, you're here, and you look more beautiful in person," the woman who I guess must be this freak’s mother said as she hugged me and I don't know but I felt good, this wasn't a hug for the media to see, it was a real hug.“ You're so beautiful," she said as she pulled away smiling at me.“ Oh, forgive my manners, I am Gina Gonzalez, I'm sure you must have guessed I'm his mom,” She said and it still surprises me how a sweet looking woman could give birth to such a vile creature like the man standing beside me. “ Let's go to the dining table, I made something special for you," She said as she held my hand and happily dragged me to the dining room.“ Honey she's here," Now she was calling her husband, I'm dead.She led me to their dining room as her pretender of a son tried to act gentlemanly as he pulled a chair for me and I sat down.“ I made lasagna, I heard you like it," She said as her son pulled a chair for her t
“ Are you crazy?!" I asked in anger as I pulled from him and then without a second thought I slapped him hard on the face.“ Lilly! What has gotten into you?!" I heard my mom's voice from behind me and I didn't need to look at her to know she was looking at me in disappointment, she wasn't my problem right now as I had my eyes on the bastard who just kissed me.“ You're going to blame me? He kissed me without my permission when I warned him not to come anywhere near me until after the marriage," I was just saying the marriage part to save myself. I had already made my Mom believe I was okay with the marriage, so I couldn't let any slip up.“ But he's your fiance," she said.“ Doesn't give him the right to kiss me without my permission," I said.“ So you do accept that he's your fiance?" A new voice I could recognize anywhere asked and I felt my heart jump. Scott. Oh no. What was he doing here?I slowly turned and he was there standing just beside my Mom, what was he doing here? Why t
"Get away from me, no, I'm not going to hear it, how could you do that to me?" I asked as I tried to get away from Rodrigo as he tried to touch me.“ You can't be that mad, I knew he wasn't going to cause you any harm," Rodrigo tried to reason with me.“ You know how much I hate that man yet you let him take me, is that how a best friend should act? You didn't even try, you just let him take me! You just gave up without a fight," I said as I went around the table and he kept following me like we were children.“ Come on you of all people should know that if he was going to cause you harm I'll break his nose before he can even get close to you,” he said." It still doesn't make sense to me, you gave me away that's all I can think about, stay away from me, it was like you were giving your blessing,” I said and he just rolled his eyes. " You're being dramatic Lilly,”" Really, I'm being dramatic?” I asked as I stopped to glare at him." Do you know what happened last night? Scott was at
“ What the fu…” I stopped myself before I could use a curse word in the midst of my staff." What are you doing here?” I asked and he just raised a brow looking at me like I was dumb or something." Mr Giovanni, we're so happy to see you," one of the men in the room suddenly stood up as he rushed to my number one enemy like he had seen a god and I couldn't help but feel annoyed about it." Miss Vincent, Mr Giovanni here is one of our company's biggest and most resourceful partners, we should be glad he decided to join us in the meeting today. He's a very busy man." Should I be glad about that?I didn't want him here for any reason. Whether he was the fucking president, I don't care. “ There's no need for him to be here either, since he's busy he should go ahead with other things, I don't need him here," I said and all my staff in the room turned to me like I just committed the biggest crime and I deserve to be behind bars. Who were they supposed to support? Him or me?“ Mr Giovanni,
“ I hope I don't remind you of these words one day when you fall in love,"“ Get out of my office," I said and he raised his hands in surrender before walking out of my office.Fall in love, my foot.That woman and love can't go well, the only person that woman loves is herself. I got to work as I tried taking care of everything that needed my attention.I was working when my office door suddenly burst open.“ I tried to stop her," Leo said.“ And you said he wasn't in his office," One of my flints said as she turned to Leo with a glare and as he raised his hands in surrender before leaving.“ What are you doing here? Don't you know I'm a busy man?” I asked as she walked to me, adding an extra sway to her hips. Golddigger. “ What do you want? More money?” I asked with a raised brow.“ Come on baby, it's not always about money," I'm sure that sounded like a lie to even her, but I didn't say anything, I just watched as she walked to me then she came to stand in front of me.I have a f
" What the hell?! Who the heck is that?" Leo cursed before we both opened the car door and stepped out.The person in the pink Lamborghini opened the door and came out and just as expected it was a woman.She stepped out of the car like a goddess and not like a woman who just crashed into my Rolls-Royce. She was wearing a blue baggy jeans with a pink crop top and white sneakers and then a black face cap. “ I'm so sorry for this, please I'll call my manager and have him fix this immediately,” she said and I just watched her with a raised brow as she brought out her phone to make a call.“ Mark, I just got into an accident. Can you meet me immediately, I crashed into someone's car and we need…” I stopped listening to her speak as Leo whispered something." Are you really going to let her fix it? The damage isn't much,” Leo asked and I just shrugged." I like things like this, so I'm just gonna watch,” I said. “ I'm so sorry, I already called my manager, please let's leave the road be
" You both know each other?" One of my contractors Nico asked.“ Not like we really know each other, we just met on my way here, I crashed into his car," she said.“ Oh, there we go again," the man said as a slap landed on the back of his head. “ Please, I'm sorry for whatever she might have done, my friend here can be careless sometimes, so pardon her," Nico said." Why does everyone think I'm careless, don't ask me to help you with anything ever again,” she said to Nico in anger before turning to me." I'm sorry once again for the accident Mr Gonzalez,” she said before running out of the building. “ Don't mind her, she's just being dramatic," Nico said as we continued our way into the building. One of the workers walked to us as he handed us helmets.“ She's my best friend by the way, I left this at her place and she had to bring it for me," he said as he showed me the blueprint he was holding.“ Okay," I said.“ So I made a few changes and adjustments and I'd like you to look at
“ What…what…” I still couldn't find my voice as I turned to my family all looking at me with smiles on their faces. And then I turned to my number one enemy who was on one knee with a ring open for me to marry him.His mother was here, so was his father and they looked very happy. They looked like if I said yes it would mean the world to them, but I didn't want to say yes, I didn't want to be trapped with their son forever.I turned to my best friend who also had a look of shock on his face then I turned back to the man still on his knees. He looked like the happiest man in the world and I knew just why, he had me just where he wanted and that smirk was enough proof.“ Come on accept the ring already,” his mom said with a broad smile on her face.They all didn't know how I was feeling, they all didn't care if I wanted to accept the ring or not. What if I just run out that door and fly back to America?" She's in too much shock she can't even speak,” I heard my mom say. All she was rea
