Daniel’s Pov I just got back from work and was told that Liliana wasn’t back from her friend’s place.I noticed that her car wasn’t in the garage and I asked the security why her car wasn’t there and he told me that Liliana wasn’t back yet.“Maybe she’s yet to know what I can do to her” I thought to myself because she must have the mindset that I can’t do nothing to her that’s why she decides to come at her own convenient time.I went inside the house and pretended like I didn't know that she wasn’t back home yet.“Where is my mother?” I asked the maid that greeted me immediately when I got inside. “Your mom is in her room sir” she replied politely. “Okay” I was about to go to my room to freshen up before having any conversation with my mom.“When will dinner be ready?” I asked the maid. “Soon sir” she replied to me politely because she didn't want me to scold her. “Soon when? I want to get an accurate time, so in how many minutes will it be ready?” I asked because I want her to be
Daniel Pov“When I got downstairs last night I was told by one of the maids that you have already had your dinner in your room” Hope said to me.“Yes that’s true” I was going through my phone just to see if I got any message or mail even though I wasn’t expecting any. “I thought you might come downstairs after eating your dinner but you didn’t.“I also thought so but I didn’t even know when it would be so late and I just ended up sleeping off” Hope looked disappointed because she waited for me.“Oh you were probably tired and you needed to rest so I understand now because I was upset that you didn't even come to check on your mother?”“Were you actually waiting for me? I asked the maid when I came back and u was told that you were in your room so I didn’t want you home and disturb you” I explained.“I honestly thought you were with Liliana that’s why you didn’t bother checking on me” Hope confessed. “Liliana?” I asked with a confused look on my face because Liliana wasn’t even in the
Daniel’s Pov“Did you call her?” Hope asked me. “Why would you even ask me such stupid question? You of all people should know that I can’t do such” “I’m just asking because who will possibly take your phone and call Kaylee except for you. And I don’t think Liliana would do such because she doesn’t even have access to your phone” “Liliana doesn’t even know the password to my phone so she can’t be the one” I was so confused because that day I was so drunk and I don’t even remember anything that happened that day.“Then you are the one that called her because I didn’t” Hope concluded. “I just told you that I didn't, so don't piss me off by saying I did”“I can’t even remember anything that happened that day in as much as I try to remember” I placed my hand on my head and was trying so hard to recollect what happened that day. The face of the waitress flashes through my memory.“The funny thing is that she even picked the call. She must be foolish to think that I will call her” I’ve al
Daniel’s Pov “Will you calm down? And don’t raise your voice at me” Hope said to me strictly.“Please I’m not in for this right now. I'm pissed, if you are looking for someone to scold then leave” I was obviously pissed off and she wasn’t of any help.“So you are asking me to leave your presence?” She asked me with a sad look on her face. She doesn’t like it when I speak rudely to her but sometimes she pushes me too hard and I just have to speak to her harshly.“I didn’t ask you to leave but if you want to leave then it’s fine” it won’t be a bad idea for her to leave because she wasn’t doing anything for me except to get me more upset by trying to scold me.“I’ve told you this several times, I don’t like it when you try to scold me. I’m not one to be scolded and you being my mom doesn’t even give you the right to do that” I said to her with an upset look on my face.“I know you are upset and just trying to transfer your aggression on me, so I’ll just ignore what you said” I ignored
Writer’s Pov Liliana was startled when she heard Daniel’s voice “Oh my goodness I thought they didn’t see me” she muttered to herself.She was dragging her feet as she didn’t want to go and meet Daniel and Hope. “But why is he even angry though? Don’t I have the right to go out” she thought to herself as she brazen up. “They can say whatever they like. I don't care, after all I had a good time,” she smiled. “Did I just see her smile?” Hope asked Daniel curiously because there was no good reason for Liliana to be smiling. “Why is she even smiling?” “I don’t blame her, I think she still has reasons to smile for now so I need to teach her a lesson before she understands” Daniel said.“Hi Daniel” she greeted. “And why are you greeting Daniel alone? Are you blind that you can’t see me sitting here?” Hope asked angrily because she felt insulted that Liliana didn’t greet her.Daniel was staring at her so angrily and just wanted to give her a slap that she’ll always live to remember just
Writer’s Pov You are not going to revisit any conversation so it's better you accept it now and don’t be delusional” Hope said to Liliana. Liliana who was already leaving heard her and turned, rolled her eyes at her and then left. “You can stare at me all you want but it won’t change anything Daniel has spoken and that’s final”“Such a nuisance, who does she think she is that I can’t tame. I’m a bit laid back because of her father but if she pushes me any further I’ll be left with no other option” “I know right, but you shouldn’t let that be a problem she can be tamed and I honestly like how you handle this now” “She knows that it’s impossible for me to allow her to go see her friend while she’s under my roof. I gave her the opportunity the first time and she misused it so there’s no second time because who knows what will do the second time ” Hope picked up her glass of champagne and a lot more champagne into her glass, she crossed her legs and sipped the champagne with smiles a
Writer’s Pov Daniel was in the garden sitting down under the canopy. He got a notification on his phone and he immediately opened the message and it was his friend that sent him an online invitation. “An invitation?” He muttered to himself. He reads through it and his friend is inviting him to his daughter’s birthday party. Daniel was happy for his friend but at the same time devastated because this is his friend's second child and he’s yet to even have one child. His medical reports always say that he can’t get a woman pregnant. “Am I going to remain fatherless till I die? So I can’t have a child of my own? A child that will call me daddy” Daniel thought himself. Just yesterday he was told that his employees who got married a year ago gave birth to a set of twins. He was in deep thoughts and didn’t even realise that Hope was standing in front of him, she called his name but he obviously didn’t hear her so she had to tap him by his shoulder. “Oh mom” he said when he realised
Daniel’s Pov“I’ve been willing to tell you this for a while now but I wanted you to bring it up yourself so that I won’t make you feel uncomfortable” Hope said. “Now that I think of it, adopting a child is better and I’ll adopt a male child so that I can give him a good training and make sure he can run the company in my absence”“You just have to adopt a baby and make sure that you give him the best” I went into deep thought immediately, I imagined having a son that will call me father. “Why didn’t you say this to me? I would have adopted a child a long time ago rather than take this long” “I told you that already, all you need to do now is go to an orphanage…” Hope was still speaking when I stood up from the chair I was sitting on. “Where are you going?” Hope asked because we weren’t done talking. “I need to go and speak to Liliana about this so that we can go to the orphanage together since they will be needing our signatures” Hope was shocked she didn’t expect me to adopt imme
Kaylee’s Pov“Thank you very much for the ride Hansel, I really appreciate” I said as I got to the front of my apartment We had quite a fun chat all through the drive and Hansel is indeed a nice person, I could tell just by spending time with him.He was so polite with his words and didn't abuse his power unlike his dad. With the little time I spent with him I noticed that he’s actually the opposite of Daniel and he won’t change.He cares and respects ladies and he grew up into a nice gentleman.“It’s fine Kaylee,” he smiled. “You actually save me because I would have waited there for minutes before getting another ride” “I know that's why I decided to give you a ride. Surprisingly, your apartment is along the way to my hotel so it makes it even easier for the both of us” he explained.“Yes, but still I’m grateful” I kept thanking him and it almost seemed like he got me a car. “I like your environment, it's nice” he said as he looked around.“You can say that again, I even love it m
Kaylee’s Pov “It’s fine, I promise” he said to me because he could see that I was worried. “Okay, if you say so” I said to him with a smile. “My name is Hallie, and you?” I said to him, smiling.“Okay, my name is Hansel,” he replied politely. I was a bit surprised to see him answer me this way because I didn’t expect him to be so polite with me.It’s obvious that he didn’t take after his evil father because Daniel would never act polite with anyone. He’s always so unapproachable and he would never speak to a stranger so politely.Looking at his face he looks like Liliana, even though she isn’t his biological mother. One would think she’s his biological mother. “Such a nice name,” he said, still smiling. He was so polite with me and it made it quite easy for me to talk to him. I was a bit skeptical about approaching him because I don’t know the kind of person he is but after meeting him I realized that I was just worried for no reason. He seemed so happy to see me.“I think you were
Kaylee’s PovI went back to my seat and just sat down, I was thinking of another way to approach him.Approaching him when he’s with some other person is a bad idea so I want to approach him when he’s probably alone.I noticed that he was chatting so I walked towards his direction and while I was approaching him a young man walked up to me.“Hi beautiful,” he said with a smile on his face. I don’t know him and I haven’t met him before now so I was surprised. “Could he have mistaken me for someone else?” I thought to myself because he isn’t acting like a stranger rather he’s acting like he has let me before.I was going to approach Hansel because he was done having a chat and now I’ve been stopped by God knows who, I would have just excused myself but I don’t want to be rude.“Hi” I said to him with a stern look on my face. I didn't want to be friendly nor do I want to put a smile on my face. “I’ve seeing you around and I couldn’t stop myself from coming to you, you look so stunning”“
Writer’s PovI woke up very early because I had a long day ahead of me and all I wanted was my mission to be accomplished.I would be going to the hotel Hansel was lodged in and I didn’t want him finding out that I’m someone from his father’s past. I want it to look like we were opportuned to meet.I opened my wardrobe to get a very beautiful dress to wear so that I could approach him boldly. “What do I wear?” I muttered as I went through the dresses in my wardrobe.“Should I wear this? I think it’s too short” I said as I brought out the first dress I wanted to wear. I don’t even know what I wanted to wear.I didn’t have any particular dress to wear, I just wanted to look smart and attractive even though my plan wasn't to seduce him. I want to build a very strong connection with him so that he doesn’t suspect my intentions.I want to use him as bait to get to his father and evil grandmother, I know how special he is to his parent and he will be the perfect person fir me to use and exe
Kaylee’s Pov “What a day” I said to myself as I sat down on the couch in my sitting room.I had a very productive day and I was happy about it. I couldn’t have wished for any better day than this because it went just exactly as I had planned.This is the happiest I have been in a while. I smiled from chin to chin as I couldn’t help the joy I felt in my heart. Slowly I was becoming happy with who I am and I could finally look at myself in the mirror without feeling sad.I was overwhelmed by how far I’ve gone and I could finally say I’m ready to move back. I waited for so many years to be sure that I’m ready for my revenge.I had so many thoughts in my mind and just imagined a mission accomplished. I was still mesmerizing when my phone began to ring.I was a bit startled because I wasn’t expecting any call. “It’s Hayden” I said as I immediately picked the call. “Hi Hayden,” I said to him with a smile on my face.“You sound very happy” he said because he could tell from the way I greete
Writer’s Pov “It’s late already and Hansel flight is a four hours flight so he is suppose to have alighted hours ago” Liliana thought to herself She was in her room and was worried because she hasn’t heard from her son since he left. “He assured me that he is going to call once he gets to his destination,” she muttered to herself.She wanted him to call her first but it seemed like he wasn’t going to call so she picked up her phone which was on the drawer beside her bed and decided to give Hansel a call.She called him and his number wasn’t reachable. “I just hope he’s okay and why would his number be unreachable now? Could it be that his phone went off and he hasn’t been able to charge it?” Too many thoughts were on Liliana’s mind as she was so confused and worried at the same time.She was trying not to get herself walked up because he just might be doing perfectly fine wherever he is. But the mother in her couldn’t keep calm, she couldn’t help it, she was so worried.“If Daniel h
Writer’s Pov “Daniel, please stop!” Hope shouted from her distance. This is the first time that Hope would ever be stopping Daniel for hitting Liliana.Hope could see the anger in Daniel’s eyes as he raised his hand to hit Liliana so hard she was scared that he’s going to end up wounding her.Liliana, who pushed him too far was scared when she saw the look on his face. He was staring at her like he wanted to end her life.“Daniel please just calm down” Hope said as she finally got to where Daniel was and held his hand calmly. “Why did you even stop me? I just wanted to kill this bastard and feed her body to the animals to eat” Daniel said to his mother with so much anger in his eyes.Liliana, who fell on the floor when she noticed that Dan was about to hit her, was so grateful to see Hope stop Daniel for the first time.Liliana was sweating as fear gripped her heart, she could get the sound of her beat so fast. For a moment she thought she had lost her life. “Oh my goodness Liliana,
Writer’s PovThere was an awkward silence from Daniel, Hope and Liliana when Hansel left.Liliana had a lot that she wanted to say to Daniel, she just wanted to give him a piece of her mind but at the same time it’s better she keep it to herself because if she said anything at that moment it’s going to be bad.“Why are you standing there and staring like a statue? Don’t you know the way to your room anymore or you want to go join your son on his trip?” Hope asked Liliana sarcastically.“You can just keep it in Liliana” she muttered to herself because Hope was just trying to provoke her. She has been poking her for days now and expecting a reaction from her but since Liliana was aware she didn’t want to give Hope the satisfaction she wants.“What was the drama you were displaying earlier? Daniel asked Liliana with a strict look on his face. Count yourself lucky that Hansel was here. I would have given you a very loud slap” Daniel said.“There was no need for you to put up an act like
Writer’s Pov “You said you are going on this trip with Hansel so what happened? Why the sudden change of mind” Liliana asked Daniel with a very curious look on her face.Daniel never had any intentions on going on the business trip with Hansel. He only wanted Hansel to go on the trip with his personal assistant but considering the fact that Daniel was insisting on Hansel going on the trip she concluded that he would be traveling too.“Liliana please don’t start again, I’m not in the mood for this right now” Daniel said to Liliana. “What do you even mean by that Daniel? You told me that Hansel would be going on this business trip so that you can introduce him to some of your business partners and investors so…” Daniel didn’t wait for her to complete her sentence before cutting in “so what Liliana? I know I said that, but did I mention to you that I’ll be traveling with him?” Daniel asked Liliana curiously.Liliana couldn’t reply because she realized that he never said to her that he’
