Lillian opened her eyes slowly to the rays of the sun as a smile appeared on her face. She stretched out a little on the bed before trying to go back to sleep.Last night was so good for her, staying in the same place with Don, and he didn't act grumpy towards her, it made her smile even more.Even though, they just had a few chat, standing by his side alone still meant something to her.Her eyes opened again, and she sucked in her breath, rising from the bed. She rested on the headboard, hugging the pillow to her chest, still with the smiling face.There was a knock on the door, diverting her attention, and she glanced at it. The knock came again, and this time, she crawled out of the bed.“Hold on, I'm coming.” She blurted when the knock came yet again.She got to the door, twisted it open, and a sigh left her when she saw a maid. The maid bowed as she saw her.“Good morning ma'am. Breakfast is ready.”“Okay, I will be down in a few minutes.”The maid nodded and turned to go.“Umm,
“How did it go at the meeting today?” Bella asked, staring at her brother keenly.He had his back turned against her, so she couldn't see his face clearly. He was standing in front of the dressing mirror as he pulled off his shirt, leaving his body with just a white singlet.Furthermore, he made his way to the closet with his shirt, looking like he didn't hear his sister the first time, and she just rolled her eyes from where she stood, near the couch.“I heard you got into a heated argument with Brandon. How serious was it that you both had to send sir Antonio to the hospital?” She blurted out.“Just because he was trying to put you both in order.” She continued.There are hints of frustration in her tone, but that was less concerning for Don.“And who told you?” His voice came out cold after a few seconds of silence.He walked back to the bed as he sat on it quietly, making Bella walk towards the couch that was nearest to the bed.“Well, let's just say that Klaus called to inform me
The car found a place to park, after which the occupants alighted, with Lillian being the first to jump out of the car with her purse hanging around her shoulder and the box in her hand.She heaved a loud sigh immediately as she placed her other hand on her chest. True to her thoughts, her heart was beating more than usual.After everything she said in the car, she had suddenly felt nervous, thinking Don might get angry with her or something. The least she wants currently was his anger.Though, she had faced the window to stare outside after she was done, but she still couldn't help it, especially when she felt his glances on her a few times.She trailed after him when she saw him walking into the hospital.“Boss.” Drake called out immediately he sighted them as he ran to meet. He glanced at Lillian, but she was quick to break away from his gaze with a detested look which broke Drake's heart.“Show me to his ward.” Don glanced around, bringing Drake's attention back to him with his w
“What was that about?” Clarissa inquired, immediately they stepped into Brandon's room.She tossed her purse on the nearest couch and crossed her arm against her chest.Brandon didn't say anything, and he just walked past her to the bed, taking a seat on it with his head bowed. He was in thoughts.“You almost got us into more trouble.” She grumbled, turning to face him.Her face and voice reflected frustration, and her breaths were resounding because of how heavy they came out.“Didn't you see how that son of a bitch disrespected my authority back then?” Brandon growled out with eyes shooting out in anger.Her whole body shook in her shoes and her heart hammered in her heart, but she tried not to make it obvious. She freed her arm and took a few steps forward.“I know, and I saw all that. But, two wrongs don't make a right. We'll definitely get screwed up if we make a mistake of adding another enemy to our list.” Clarissa didn't take a break in spewing out all these words.She joined h
Don didn't leave his position even when Lillian was out of the room already. His gaze remained on Rex, but his mouth didn't utter a word.Seeing Rex this way uplifted the burning rage inside of him. His face might be void of emotions, but his mind wasn't and this increased his determination to find the criminal.Rex lowered his gaze all these while. He couldn't understand why his boss was vividly staring at him all through. He wondered what he could be thinking in his head, but this was Don, his boss after all. Nobody could read his thoughts or guess his next action.The nurses from earlier walked in shortly.“We would like to take him for the CT scan now.” One of them announced before they walked past Don to Rex.Don took a last glance at Rex and walked out of the room without a word. Drake and Draco were standing not too far and when theyaw him coming, they ran to meet with him.“Where is she?” He asked, glancing at the both of them.“She went outside to take fresh air.” Drake replie
A guy sat opposite a lady who was probably his girlfriend, and he fed her ice cream while she took turns to do the same.The smiles on their faces only increased when it was each turn to feed.Lillian was staring at them, her lips curled up in a small smile, and her hand placed on the car door was supporting her chin up.She chuckled when the guy began to tease the lady with a spoon of ice cream, and a small frown crawled up on the lady's face. Somehow, Lillian wished she and Don would one-day be like that and stop living like they are now because to her, they lived like total strangers.The traffic light changed to green and the cars all began to move, including the one Lillian was in.“Excited about tonight?” Bella glanced at her, at the same time trying to focus on the road.“Not really.....” Lillian paused to stare at her and rested back on the seat.“Just thinking of how life would have been if Don and I had been a normal couple.” “Who knows if he would even accommodate me for
*Matured content ahead*She gawked at him with no words to say and swallowed hard. She could feel his hot breath fan her face as it slowly moved towards her ear.His cold hand pressed into her waist, holding firmly to her and pulling her closer to his body at the same time. As he did this, she felt something poked her from underneath, and a loud gasp left her lips.It felt so hard and pointed directly at her v- area, even if it was still trapped in the Jean pants.Her eyes went shut immediately his tongue touched her earlobes and didn't realize it when she moaned.He sucked and licked on her sensitive spot at the same time, walking her to the bed. They both landed as he spun her over to be on top of her. He moved his lips to the hollow of her neck and began to eat into it, also showering kisses to that area.All these while, she wouldn't stop moaning as a burning sensation coursed through her veins. She had never felt like this before, and that was because she had never been with a ma
“What are you up to?” The man in a black suit asked as he saw Mark standing at the window. He was just entering into the room, he made his way towards a couch and took a seat on it, placing his leg on the other majestically.“Nothing.” Mark replied in a mumble.The tone behind his voice seemed dry, like he was pissed about something.He left the window to sit opposite the man as he rested back on the seat.“I heard you've been demanding to see me. Is there a problem?” The man raised a questioning brow.“Two days ago and you're just coming to see me.” Mark reminded with a grunting sound.“You should know very well that I am much busy and I don't lazy around like you do.” The man smirked and Mark scoffed out, deciding to pretend like he didn't hear the last part.“About our plan, how did it go?” He said instead.“Well….” The man trailed off and stood to his feet.He walked towards the window where Mark was standing earlier and crossed his hands behind his back.“We forfeited it.”“Forf
The two siblings paced to and fro in the waiting room. Their expression held nothing but anxiety as they prayed silently in their hearts for everything to go well.Lillian's mother wasn't excluded. She was called to the hospital immediately Bella and her brother, Don, suspected that Lillian was in labor. Luckily, Mrs. Blake was around the area at that time, so she followed them to the hospital.It had been over an hour since Lillian was taken into the delivery room, and there's been no news from the doctors in charge.This continued for a few minutes until they all sighted the doctor heading their way, and they rushed to him immediately.“Congratulations. She has given birth to a bouncing baby boy.” The doctor voiced out immediately with a light smile.Their once worried look brightened instantly with smiles lingering on their lips.Finally, Bella spoke out with so much enthusiasm, “Can we see them now?”“Of course, you can see them. Come with me.”They all followed the doctor to Lill
“Ughh, how tasteless can this be?” Lillian chimed in a loud voice that caught everyone's attention.All eyes were shot at her, with only Bella's having the courage to remain on her, unlike the maids who immediately continued what they were doing.Bella's gaze instantly raised a question when she glanced up from her phone.“These are no fun to take! It's really tasteless.” Lillian continued to whine and this time, she tossed the berry in her hand back to the rest in the tray.“Do you want us to get you another fruits?” One of the maids stood in an upright position and asked.They were all new maids. After what happened to Aurora, the maid who committed suicide and Mara, Don replaced the maids and, this time, with a much stricter rule. Lillian shook her head, thereby urging the maid to go back to her previous duty.This was mostly all what Lillian does to the food and even fruits she eats since she became pregnant. It was either disgusting or tasteless like earlier. Things even got wo
Bella got a hint of the situation immediately her mood changed, and no words came from her. She heaved a sigh but didn't say a word either.Just then, the door opened, revealing Don. He walked a few steps into the room and paused to stare at Lillian.The family shot him a glance, then back at Lillian. They also got a hint of the situation and guessed they obviously needed some privacy together.“Now that your husband is here, we'll leave you two to talk.” Mrs. Blake said and glanced at the others, and they all nodded.They left the ward as agreed, but that didn't change the aura in the ward. Don and Lillian still maintained their silence as different thoughts ran through their heads.But there was something strange about Don's demeanor. His expression wasn't unreadable as it used to be. This time, she could bet she was able to read some emotions out from his facial expression.One of them was anger, but who was he angry at? Lillian shivered at the thought of him getting angry at the f
A devilish smile didn't fail to crawl to his face as he attempted to pull the trigger, but all of a sudden, all the armed men in the place pointed their guns towards him, shocking everyone except Don and his personal guards.“You should also get one thing straight, no one escapes my wrath when they look for it.” Don finally voiced out with a dangerous smirk.Rex and Draco were also freed, and they joined the multitude of boys to pointing guns at Pablo. Pablo, whose face was now filled with confusion and shock, gently dropped his hand by his side.“Do you really think that you were the only one with the plans here?” Don's mind flashed back to how he replaced the men that were meant to support Pablo with his.It wasn't an easy thing to do but it was still worth it, especially since it had to with getting Pablo away from Lillian's life forever."What is happening now?" Pablo glanced around him, his mind trying not to accept that he was already outsmarted.This wasn't what he had planned.
Don tucked his gun into his pants as he glared at the men on the ground, some were unconscious while a few were groaning in extreme pain. He didn't waste any more seconds before he left the area.Pablo was actually more prepared, considering the number of guards he had secretly placed in the building. Fortunately, Don and his personal guards were well-trained enough to take them all down. Although, they wouldn't stop trooping into the building, more like they already knew of the intruders.As Don ran up the stairs, he was more vigilant than ever. The occurrence from earlier should never happen again, especially since he had only a limited time.Yes! He was already informed by Sir. Jeffrey about the short time they had to rescue Lillian. He would rather not waste a second out of it even though, three minutes had passed already.He halted when he got to a hallway leading to different rooms. Opening one of the rooms, he concluded he wouldn't be able to make it if he searched through them
Bella stood, glaring at the man in front of her, that if not for just a good reason, she would have strangled him to death right there.After so many days of searching and trying to find him, he was finally found. But then, it was so unfortunate that nothing could be done to him at the moment.“I think you can stop glaring now, else your eyes might pop out any moment.” Mark finally said, not able to endure the harsh gazes he was receiving from Bella.He was roughly tied in a piece on the cold floor, that it was so difficult to even move a body part. Though, he was already in that state before Bella and her brother arrived.“I don't mind, as long as you go down first. And don't think you're doing us a favor here because you're one of the reasons all this is happening.” The hostile glare didn't leave Bella's face as she spat out her anger.“That stupid brother of yours had better f**king bring Lillian back.” Mark retorted with so much loathe behind his voice.Even though Bella's anger k
“Boss, as we speak, they're after me and......” Mara glanced at the men running after her and she mumbled, “F*ck!”They were so close to her that in a few seconds they could catch up with her. F*ck herself for making the injuries on her look so real. Now, she couldn't even run properly with all the injuries she inflicted on herself.The men, who happened to be Don's guards, split into two groups as one group out took Mara and blocked her from running further.Figuring there was no other way out as the guards already circled her with their guns pointing directly at her, Mara halted and without a second warning, threw her phone into the nearby river.All the guards were shocked, realizing what she just did, but none of them bulged to retrieve the phone. As long as they caught Mara first, they're sure to get all the information they wanted, including the reason she shot Eva.“Hello? Mara!” The line had already disconnected, but Pablo didn't realize it until there was no more sound from th
“I want to get rid of that so-called wife of his, I don't think I can stand her even though we're just knowing each other. That b**ch is beginning to step on my toes.” “She has a name.”“Do I look like I f**king care? Whatever name she goes by, whether Lillian Blake or Killian Black, I just want one thing, and that is to get rid of her while she is still new.”“So?”“So, I want you to do something, and it's slightly simple, though dangerous.”“Danger is literally my other name, but first, what do I get in return?”“Whatever you ask for. Hold on…. What are you staring at? You want my body?”“You got it, babe.”“Just do what I want, and you'll have all you ask for.” The recording paused and that was Eva lifted her head, her mouth, and eyes wide open in shock. She glanced at the person whom she would rather die than have to listen to the recording at the moment and felt her life was over.Listening to the conversation she had with Klaus some months back made her whole world crumble. Ju
“We searched the CCTV footage for the supposed area and, as expected, it's been altered. It only showed the part where the Lady and maid stepped out to check the unconscious guards in another car, the rest of what took place wasn't found.” “It was also known that the security guards there were all unconscious at the said time, which means….”“Which means that this person really knows what he is doing. But who could he be? Or could it be......” Bella cut Draco short as her mind drifted to Mark, but strangely, she doubted if he had such authority or resources.“I doubt if he was. Even if he was behind it, I believe he had back up, someone with a similar goal compared to his.” Don also thought of Mark, but being in this game for long, he understood that not just anyone had the power to pull such strings.Nobody said anything for a while, and this gave Draco the opportunity to speak again.“We've sent messages across to all of our connections in the country, but there hasn't been news ye
