Cara frowned. "Sure, we do need to talk. Come on in." She pulled the door wide open for him. Though she was acting angry-- which she was-- she was actually startled to see Romeo so... Disorganized.

He was never one to show that side of him to anyone.

He closed his eyes and fought the urge to throw up before opening his eyes back. "I don't... I don't think I should."

Her eyes rolled skyward. Grabbing his hand, she led him into her room and slammed the door.

They stood so closely to each other that the strong smell of alcohol filled up her entire lungs just by standing in front of him. He must have really had a lot to drink.

His cheeks burnt red. He averted his gaze and took a step back.

She scoffed angrily. "What so you're avoiding me now that you're getting married?"

His thick brow arched in confusion. "What?"

"Yeah, I know. Camilla told me about it and even if she hadn't, I saw the ring on her finger and the way she hugged you and wouldn't let go. The way you smiled too, you never sm

    The alarm blared loudly and Cara opened her eyes with a tired groan. Stretching her hand to the table, she turned off the alarm clock and sat up. Looking around, she realized she was the only one in the room. 'What? Did he have a change of mind after thinking it through the night?' She asked herself. She hurried out of bed without changing out of her pajamas. "Rom-- Romeo! Romeo!" She screamed his name as she ran down the hall. Arriving at the bar, she was standing in her pajamas with all eyes on her. Romeo was on his feet as if he had heard her voice and was hurrying to join her. "Cara, hey, are you okay? Did something happen? Is there a leak in your room?" He hurried to meet her as he asked, a worried expression playing on his face. She didn't know how to reply, at least not with everyone staring at her like that. Romeo shook her shoulders gently. "Hey, you okay? You look frightened." "Please tell me the captain died." Andrew said and everyone was looking at him now. Th

    Chris stared irritatedly at the food that sat on his plate. Ever since he had told Cara about the car he got her and she obviously wasn't pleased by it, he had been trying to reach her but her number was not connecting.She couldn't have... Blocked him? Could She?He couldn't stop asking himself different questions. Was she really on a cruiser with the CEO and founder of Breeze motors? How did she even meet him in the first place? Through Romeo?His brow creased.Dropping his fork, he reached for his phone and clicked on Instagram. He was tired of all the unanswered questions and if it meant he had to stalk around for a little for answers then he was more than willing to do it.The first person he searched for was Andrew Malhotra. Everyone knew that the man and social media were five and six. He liked to post updates and he did so every day.About his outings, new cars, relationships, and friendships. He tended to post a lot.Chris was not all too surprised when he saw a few pictures

  • His Greatest Regret    Kill Yourself

    After forcing two portions of their breakfast down her throat even though she wasn't hungry, Jessica was asked to oversee the maids and assist them in washing the dishes even though she didn't have to.Yet she smiled at Michael and said; "yes dad, I will do just that.""If they break a single plate, Sarah make sure to use the shards to imprint on your face and I won't do anything to stop her because I already warned you." Michael nonchalantly spat out.She nodded with a forced smile. "Yes dad, I understand. You are truly so kind towards me."Michael grunted and walked away, sparing one last glance at her like she was a sight that highly disgusted him.Jessica let out a heavy sigh. She glared at the maids standing behind her. "What are you waiting for? Pack the god damn dishes and go wash them!"They bowed their heads and hurriedly carried the dishes."Break one and I'll not only imprint on your skin, I'll slit your throat with it!" She spat out angrily.They all made sure to be carefu

    "Okay, okay, everybody calm down," Andrew rose to his feet with a glass of whiskey in his hand. "Finally, everyone is here and the mood is f*cking right!" He sighed. "I couldn't be happier."They all chorused a laugh.Cara had gone back to her room, after her conversation with Romeo, to change into something sexy but befitting of the cold weather.She noticed Camilla putting on a lengthy dress that reached all the way down and a pair of black heels. Then her long black hair was left to fall loose over her shoulder and a big jacket was around her shoulders to keep out the cold.So she ruffled through her own clothes and took out a baby pink long sleeved floor length dress that had a slit all the way to her thigh on one side and a few openings around the waist area at the back.Her heels were the same shade of pink as well and so was the small purse in her hand. She had wondered if it needed or not to carry a purse but Camilla was carrying a small black bag and she thought, why not?She

  • His Greatest Regret    Saved

    Jessica stared at the knife in her hand and the one in Chris' hand. Frightened out of her wits. Droplets of sweat trickled down the side of her face and her forehead.She wanted to open her mouth to speak, to tell him she would actually do it. Maybe then he would have been frightened. But fear's grip around her throat made it impossible for her to speak even a single word."Chris!" Michael exclaimed. "J*sus! Put the god damn knife away this instant!""No dad! She said she wants to kill herself, this is what she wants. I can't stand idle and watch her suffer when I can just help her out now can I?" There was a psychotic twist to his tone."Use your god damn words!" Michael yelled. He wanted to approach his son, but even he was scared of the knife in his hand. He turned to look at his wife. "Say something! Your son is about to commit murder!""Murder?" She turned to look at him, her expression was of someone that was surprised but in a bad way. "Oh dear God! Do not use such words in my

    Chris threw on his jacket and stormed off in his car. Arriving at his favorite club, early as it was in the morning, he went and sat down in the vvip room where he always was. He had reserved the place for life. It was practically his home.His girlfriend-- one of his many girlfriends-+ was already there and waiting after receiving a call from him.Sitting on the couch, he took out his phone and began scrolling through all of the pictures."You look quite pissed." His girlfriend commented. "Are you okay?"He sighed. "Just do what you came here for." He rudely responded.She slid her arm across his body and unzipped his pants as she went down on her knees. Taking out his member, she slid it into her mouth and got down to business.Chris heaved a sigh in relief. He kept scrolling through the recent pictures, his eyes refused to believe it when he saw Cara in one of Andrew's posts. She really did know him. He couldn't believe it.Even he had not been invited to party with Andrew though t

    "Cheers!"Andrew Malhotra exclaimed in a cheery tone as they all clinked their drinking glasses together."Okay, now, it's time to play our decent and fun games. Later at night, we'll get a little slutty." He grinned."Okay, okay, let me stop you there." Rick stated. "Decent and fun, sure but slutty? Dude, there are only two women here and one's mine and the other is Romeo's girl. How the hell are things supposed to be slutty because I will not even let you watch Camilla give me a lap dance.""Maybe Jastrow will give him a lap dance." Romeo remarked and they laughed."Come on, come on," Andrew motioned with his hand for them to tone their laughs down. "We all know I am one thousand percent straight and even if I decided to be gay overnight, Jastrow isn't my type.""I don't even want to be your type." Jastrow commented."Whatever." Andrew let his eyes roll skyward. "Okay and don't worry, over possessive Rick, I got a few girls on the ship to dance for us.""Wait," Romeo sat up in his s

    Several minutes passed by, Jessica laid in bed as if she were dead. Staring at the tall ceiling of her room and being unable to piece her thoughts together.Her own husband had held a knife at her and threatened her to kill herself or he would do it for her.It didn't make any sense at all!

    "I think that is very weird but it's not important to me right now. Can you just tell me if Cara is here or not? I really need to talk to her like right now." Chris sounded desperate and pleadingly polite.Andrew let out a sigh. "I don't know the full story so I'm not going to pretend like I do. Just make it quick, I'll call her out for you."He poked his head into the shop and called out for Cara. Cara confusedly walked out with her boyfriend's arm around her shoulder and Rick and Camilla behind them as well and a small shopping bag. Her eyes squinted as they landed on Chris as if she wanted to confirm if she was hallucinating."Chris?!" Her eyes widened as she exclaimed, knowing that he was truly there. "What the f*ck?!""That's what I said except with an 'actual'." Andrew chirped in.Chris' eyes fell on Romeo's arms around Cara's neck and he angrily gritted his teeth. He frowned. "Have you slept with him yet?" His brow arched."What the f*ck! Why would you even ask me that!" She an

    Chris got into his car and drove all the way to the place where Cara's ship had arrived. Unfortunately, he didn't meet anyone. He felt so angry but decided to calm down and check around, they couldn't have gotten too far ahead if he sped up.Only a while ago did Andrew update it that their ship had sailed back safely which meant they were still around somewhere.He bumped into one of the dock workers who immediately apologized to him on seeing his nice dressing and car keys in his hand."Uh excuse me!" He called out to the man who was about to walk away after a short bow of his head. "I'm looking for my... Friend...? My friend uh... Andrew Malhotra, his ship sailed in just a while ago and he texted me to meet up here but I don't know where.""Ohh, I'm sorry but I don't know that name. Except if he was one of young master Romeo Armani's friends." The man stated.Chris nodded his head swiftly. "Yes, yes! He's one of you-- one of Romeo's friends. He is tall, handsome, tanned skin and bro

    Jessica bent her head to the side slightly. "Are you even hearing me?"The maid blinked. "Yes! Oh of course! Thank you so much! I really appreciate this opportunity ma'am, thank you so much! I promise to return this favor someday one way or the other." Tears brimmed at the young girl's eyes.She looked slightly over twenty with beautiful blue eyes and silky blonde hair. Her small body was wrapped in her maid uniform of black and white. Her small dress was black while the apron clinging on to her waist was white. A color to match the scarf on her head.Jessica stared at her with an unreadable expression and rolled her eyes. "Go on then. And next time, don't make a promise you're not so sure you can keep. Also, I don't know how long you get to keep the job so don't look at me like you worship me now."The maid chuckled softly before running off in excitement.Jessica rolled her eyes once more and shook her head. People were so gullible, she thought to herself.The thought led her back t

  • His Greatest Regret    Manipulating Him

    Jessica slammed her fist on the table and rose to her feet, aggressively shoving the seat behind her further away. "This is outrageous! It is more than outrageous!" She fumed. "How can you ask for something as lowly as this from me?" She squinted. "I may have little value in your eyes but I know my worth enough to know that I will never be seen working the cash register at some dumb café!" She kept her head high as she spoke.Michael fumed. "How dare you talk back to your mother-in-law like that?!" He rose to his feet like a rising storm. "Do you have any idea of the gravity of what you just did?" He pointed a judgmental finger at her face. "This is the highest form of disrespect in front of your parents in-law!""Go ahead!" Jessica barked. "Get angry! Yell all you want but let me tell you this, however angry you get, it will not drive me to do something as lowly as this. Can't you even stop to think about this for once? This isn't embarrassing for me alone but the entire Knowles fami

    Romeo cupped Cara's face in his arms and smiled softly. "I know. I remember." She blinked. "What?" "One year ago when I went with you to face your ex husband, I remember they said something like that and it really hurt you. I don't have a problem with that. Just to be sure, we will go see my doctor once we are back in the city and whatever he says, we'll move on from there." He explained to her with a calm look on his face. A single tear drop trailed down her face. "You... You remember...? Why didn't you... I mean, they said you love kids, why didn't you... I mean, why are you--""Because I love you." He cut her off. Wrapping his hands around her waist, he pulled her in closer to himself and smiled. "I know I love kids but I can imagine myself living without one of my own... Somehow, I can't imagine myself living without you. Besides, there are tons of kids out there without parents, I can take in as many as I want since I love kids so much." She couldn't control her tears as they

  • His Greatest Regret    Can’t Have Kids

    Cara blinked. "Ma--marriage?""Seriously Andrew?" Rick arched his brow. "They just got together and you're already asking them about marriage?""I mean they aren't kids anymore and we are all aware of how much Romeo loves kids and wants to settle down and start his own family." Andrew stated."Let's just skip to the drinking part please? This questioning is boring." Jastrow added.Andrew scoffed. "Alright, alcoholic drunk. Drink till you drop."Just like that, the question was averted.They spent the rest of the day having casual conversations then sometimes it slipped into work talks but only briefly.They drank, danced and partied but Cara was not as free and happy as she was before. She would fake a smile whenever Romeo was around so he wouldn't ask her what the problem was but once he was out of sight, her worry came back to eat at her.'Romeo loves kids and wants to start his own family? That future is impossible with me!' The words haunted her brain.What about his friends, they

    Chris let out a sigh as he slammed the door to his bedroom shut. Why was he having such a terrible day? Why wasn't one thing going according to his plan?Sure, he too had deleted the pictures from his wall but only because Jessica asked him to. He would have left it there if he had the choice.Thinking about it now, it was wrong that he let Jessica control his every thought and move back then. It was like he was nothing but a puppet to her and he let her control him but not anymore.He was the puppeteer, not the puppet. And no one would control him like that ever again. Not his parents or Jessica.His mind was set on one thing now and that one thing was bringing Cara back into his home. That was the only thing he wanted and he would make sure he did it.Jessica? She could go to hell for all he cared, she wasn't supposed to be in his life in the first place. Not her or their son. It was always meant to be Cara.Sure, it took him a year to realize that, but his eyes were opened now and
