Elaine's Pov “So what you're saying now is that this person named Jackal could actually be a family member of Alvirez? Then if that's true, she must have been planning this for such a long time.” I said. Zade nodded, “That's right. This is his picture.” Zade placed his phone on the table, enla
Elaine's Pov “Look at her, she's back.” “It's been quite a while since I last saw her in the company.” “Somehow, it's good to see her again.” Murmurs and whispers flew in the air the moment I stepped into the company’s walls. Even the woman at the reception table looked surprised and a bit ha
Elaine's Pov “I'm not thinking about anything so shut up!” Finally, I was able to remove myself from Zade's lap. Rushing to the corner, I quickly took out a small napkin to clean my nose. What type of woman was I to have a nosebleed while on a man's lap? This is crazy! But just as I knew that
Elaine's Pov It was another beautiful sunny day. Beautiful as in the sense that I was with Emily whose body could not stop trembling. I had a huge surprise which I had shown her and unfortunately, she didn't like it. ‘Did not like it' is an understatement, actually. She despised it, hated it, and
Emily's Pov “Caleb?” I called his name softly as I went into the house. There was no one at home, or rather, he was home but he didn't want to respond to me. Either way, I had to find out. So I went into the house and searched all of the rooms. “He really isn't home. Where did he go?” I muttered t
Caleb sighed heavily and pulled away, turning to face me with a hard, unreadable expression, “Emily, stop.”The command was sharp, cutting through the tension in the room like a blade. I blinked, momentarily stunned, “What… what’s wrong?” I asked, trying to keep the tremor out of my voice.He shook
Elaine’s Pov “So, where are you going right now?” “To see a guy.” I said nonchalantly, glancing at Zade who was sitting on my bed from the corner of my eyes. Zade’s brow furrowed, and his jaw tightened, though he tried to keep his expression neutral. I couldn’t help but smirk at the tiny hint of
Elaine's Pov “I'm curious as to what you would have done to me if I had not kept my word.” I asked, leaning forward, my eyes on him. Kevin smirked as he leered at me, his eyes caressing my body. He had a perverted look in his gaze, one that made me want to leave immediately. “Someone like you… I
Elaine's Pov Zade’s warm smile made me smile in response to what he said. His hands in mine felt very grounding, like nothing was going to happen while he was here. “I wasn’t sure if you were still in the mood for it.” I replied, my voice lighter than I felt.He tilted his head, studying me for a
Elaine's Pov “Am I interrupting something? And why is my dear sister on the floor shaking like a leaf? Did she do something to you, Elaine?” Katherine questioned, standing beside me, next to Elijah. After this, I was going to become a wingman for both of them. If Katherine could get married to E
Elaine's Pov It was as if a boulder had fallen down on Mila and Jade, the both of them stumbled in shock and horror. I went straight to them, my brother's and Zade right behind me. When I stopped, I beamed at them, stretching out my hands for a handshake. “Mila Hall and Jade, right? I've heard s
“Elaine, although to you and to others, this is just a normal debut, but it's not. You don't know how you went missing and why I spent so much time finding you. There are people in this family who haven't shown themselves. Those who are waiting for you to be officially recognised into this family so
Elaine's Pov. “This is bullshit, you know?!” I muttered angrily under my breath, frowning when a gust of wind flowed into the shed, making my body automatically shiver. Not only was I locked up in a place where it was going to be hard for people to pass through, I was also cold, dirty and smelly.
Elaine's Pov “They’re just people, Elaine. It's not like you've not stood in front of a lot of people before. You literally did this when dealing with Caleb and Emily.” I muttered under her breath, trying to steady my raging nerves. Guests who were dressed in glamorous attires filed into the l
Elaine's Pov “Yours? How noble.” Jade sneered, brushing imaginary dust off his shoulder, “But don’t think for a second that your actions will go unnoticed. Father doesn’t take kindly to being disobeyed, baby brother. You know that better than anyone.” “Like I said, it's your problem not mine. H
Elaine’s Pov “That’s your brother? He’s ugly. Really ugly.” I whispered to Zade who snickered at my words. Truly, to me, this Jade was really ugly, not as handsome as Zade. I stared at him for a while, frowning, even from where he stood, I could smell the amount of female perfume coming from him.
Author's Pov "I am so exhausted." Katherine groaned. She plopped down on her bed, covering her face with her pillow. Going to the Delacroix Mansion was not something she had counted on in her entire life but Elaine made it happen. Mila might have gone there but she no chance to. "Miss. Your sis
