“Now what are you saying, Mom?” Michael snapped angrily, stepping in front of Mandy to block her from his mother’s view.Tears were starting to pool in Mandy’s eyes but she wouldn't allow them to fall. Instead, she kept herself busy by clasping her dress in her free hand tightly. Louisa raised her eyes toward her son and gave him a blank stare that spoke volumes but Michael stood his ground, glaring back at his mother.“Move away now before I lose it, Michael,” she cautioned in a grim voice.“What has gotten into you, Louisa? Leave these children alone!” Desmond butt in, moving closer, and grabbed Louisa’s arm.He was also mad at this point as he could by no means understand why his wife was bent on horning into the children's affairs when she could clearly see that they were not comfortable talking about it.Joshua and Scott were also fuming steam by now as they fixed their heated eyes on a remorseful Nathan. “I’m asking you again, Mandy. Are you the reason Michael drew blood from
Liam quickly bit his lower lip as soon as he let those words out, looking everywhere but Daniella’s voice. “You caused this!” Daniella roared like a furious lion, her body vibrating with uncontrollable fury as she grabbed a pillow and hurled it at Liam.Liam was starting to laugh as he caught the pillow and tossed it back at Daniella almost immediately, saying, “I gave you what you were looking for, sweetheart. It's undeniable that you enjoyed every bit of it”Daniella swallowed subconsciously while she averted her gaze from Liam's alluring face. She's having trouble controlling her damn features from going redder and redder from his words.In a swift motion, Liam lunged into the bed with the phone in his hand, lying on top of Daniella and her heart raced when Liam unexpectedly yanked the cover from her body.With their eyes locked intently, Daniella could feel the heat radiating off his body, warming her skin and sending shivers down her spine.He approached her and leaned against h
Mr. Wilfred and his assistant - the same man who had led Jessica into the conference room - also scampered out of the hall and prepared to run after them. However, their movement came to an abrupt halt when they heard the resounding slap Jessica gave the investor.Standing right next to each other, their eyes were wide with skepticism as they both exchanged a glance before returning their protruded eyes in the direction of Jesisica and the man.“Don’t you dare lay your filthy hands on me ever again, do you understand?” Jessica screamed out fiercely. Her eyes had turned red like a blazing fire, her nose flaring while her body vibrating uncontrollably with fury. She was so mad that she would have been breathing fire if she was a dragon. However, the man she just slapped didn't alter but his expression clouded with remorse instead. “I’m begging you, Jessica. Let's talk, please,” Antonio pleaded, baring his soul to her.“You must be a complete lunatic for you to think I'll ever want
“Would y-you please calm down?” Liam said calmly when Daniella had finally released him at the parking lot.Without sparing her father a look, Daniella proceeded to his coat's inner pocket.However, after digging her both hands around his chest, and couldn't find what she was looking for; so she moved to his pants and fetched the car immobilizer in the first pocket at once.She then unlocked the car by pressing the switch on the immobilizer which gave a beep before clasping Liam’s hand again and veering around toward the driver’s seat. “Get in,” she commanded in a rough voice, still not looking at Liam’s face.Liam let out a soft exhale before pulling the car door and obediently went inside. From the windshield, he watched as Daniella ruffled her hair while turning around the car to the other side, and in the next second, she had gotten in the car beside him.“Let’s go, Dad,” Daniella ordered breathlessly, sloping her fingers into her hair and looking out of the window.A smile play
The following day which was Sunday— Liam as usual was preparing the table for breakfast when his daughter walked into the dining room.His attention wandered to her and he immediately forgot to breathe as he locked eyes with her. She was wearing a black turtleneck and a plaid skirt that stopped right above her knees but a pair of black pop socks continued under the skirt and also a pair of black short boots. Her new styled jet-curly black hair was slumping around her shoulders and on it was a pink hair clip feather hat which was precisely matching the small Jacquemus bag she was holding. Liam’s gaze trailed down to the soft, inviting curve of her lips and his mouth watered. Heat crept up Daniella’s cheeks and she dramatically fanned her face, “Am I that breathtaking, Dad?” Liam forced a breath into his lungs and sat down with a slump, his eyes filling with desire. He crooked his finger at her, “Come here,” Daniella obeyed his call and went to where he was sitting— their eyes lev
The following day—At school.Both Daniella and Mandy were sitting on their favorite backless bench in the faculty relaxation center with only a few students around. It was winter season now and everyone was dressed to keep themselves as warm as possible. Daniella was clad in a black sweater and Jean with a White long woolen coat as overall while Mandy was wearing a black down jacket with a gray scarf around her neck.The two of them had been laughing heartily since the moment their chat had started, not minding the looks the people around them kept stealing at them occasionally.Mandy had finally gotten the chance to gist her best friend about the occurrence at Michael’s mom's birthday party. And the part that was making them laugh so hard was the way Michael had rained punches upon Nathan’s face.“If you were there with me that night, Ella, I'm sure you wouldn't be laughing at the situation,” Mandy began again after their laughter had died down.Daniella’s expression shifted from p
Daniella’s heart suddenly sank. Her body uncontrollably swayed as if she would collapse in the next second but she quickly held on to the desk for support.A heavy silence enveloped the room for a fraction of a second, Daniella’s heart racing.“I_can't_ be_ pregnant,” she voiced out in a low gentle voice, sounding like a broken record.She positioned her unsteady hands on the desk and bent her body a bit, “I can't be pregnant, woman, I can't just be pregnant. And stop giving me that look!” she yelled out like a crazy woman this time, her eyes bulging outwards.A feathered smile crossed the physician’s lips as it seemed she had quite expected such a reaction from Daniella. She thought in her mind that Daniella was still a young college girl and it was too early for her to keep a pregnancy. And of course, her boyfriend might probably reject the pregnancy.Gradually, the physician left where she was standing and came to stand in front of the fuming Daniella across the desk. “It is nor
Should I just tell him?‘Tell him that you're pregnant? Are you completely out of your mind? Have you thought about how he's going to feel or do you think he will ever agree for you to get rid of it or something?’Daniella listened to her subconscious mind and suddenly, her throat seemed to be stuffed with a bunch of soft acerbic. Her nose was choked and she felt like crying.However, she shifted her gaze to her father’s face once more and let out a meaningful smile, and then began…“It's Mandy, Dad,” Liam’s full brows furrowed immediately but he didn't interrupt her as his gaze remained on her face.“I'm just so happy for Mandy that I couldn't control my tears, Dad. My best friend has finally found a true love from Michael,” Unbidden, Liam’s eyebrows shot up to his hairline as realization dawned on him.“Michael loves Mandy so much… so much that I'm starting to become envious of them and to think that I was never in support of their togetherness from the beginning hurts me deeply,
