Xavier said to Vanessa, and that made her gasp in disbelief. “Yo- you didn't even deny it?”. She exclaimed, and was feeling anxious. “Why would I deny it when my feelings for you are true, Nessa?”. What Xavier said made him and Vanessa stop talking. They stared at each other for a few seconds. “I-” Xavier saw that Vanessa was pressured. He didn't want her to be overwhelmed, so he quickly assured her, saying, “It’s alright, Nessa. I won't ever force you to do what you don't want to do”. He added with a smile, “But you should know that my love for you is true. I would never take any advantage of you or betray you like Nicholas”. “I'll take my leave then”. Xavier left the room after glancing at Vanessa's face. He was going to the living room. Meanwhile, Vanessa couldn't understand the strange feeling she was feeling deep inside her heart as s
Xavier said nothing else after he had finished muttering. He was frowning as he made his way outside. Eric and Derek followed Xavier outside, as they were curious. But Mrs Charlotte remained inside the mansion. She suddenly began to wonder about something that had already been bothering her before, “Why are Master Xavier and his wife still staying in different rooms? And what day would I get to witness their wedding ceremony?”. Mrs Charlotte wondered about Vanessa and Xavier’s wedding ceremony because she knew that Vanessa and Xavier had enough money and were both more than capable of hosting a wedding ceremony. Again, she has yet to understand the reason behind them sleeping in different bedrooms. ‘Are they staying in different rooms because they haven't had their wedding ceremony? But haven't they already registered their marriage?’. She thought and was confused. “Ha”. She sighed in defeat when she realised that she had spaced out. She brushed off all her curious thoughts and
“Calm down, Claire. Stop crying. Give me some minutes, and I'll come and meet you today”. Vanessa said to her, but that only made Claire cry more.Claire thought that what Vanessa had said was an excuse to hang up the phone call. “Claire-”. “Do you hate me, chairman Vanessa? Is that why you purposely said those words to me so that you could hang up the call?”. Claire asked her, before her eyes widened in shock after she thought of something. She asked, “Did you call me by mistake?”. ‘Claire has never behaved like this before. I must have really broken her heart. Thanks to Zuri for framing her. And thanks to me, who believed that she betrayed me! I casted her aside! I'm also at fault’. Vanessa thought to herself. She gritted her teeth, causing the veins in her neck to pop out after she had done that. She felt the urge to vent her anger right now on Zuri. Fortunately, she suppressed and chained all the boiling rage she was feeling. She sighed and said to Claire, “Please listen to me
8:30am in the morning, “Should we knock again, Derek? We have been standing here for an hour”. Eric asked him, but Derek shook his head, indicating that he didn't know. They were standing outside Vanessa’s room, and had knocked several times on the door. But up to this very moment, Vanessa had not opened the door for them. Derek's fingers were on his chin as he wondered. He later said to Eric, “Maybe she's still sleeping”. “But that's unlike Nessa”. Eric said and frowned. He was feeling desperate and unsettled because he wanted Vanessa to tell Derek and him everything that happened last night. Xavier’s bedroom happened to be the closest room to Vanessa’s bedroom. He went out of his room, before he coincidentally saw the way Eric and Derek were about to knock on Vanessa’s room door. “Don't do that, twins. She might still be asleep”. Xavier said to them, causing them to retrieve their hands that had almost knocked on the door. Eric and Derek stopped facing the door a
“What should we do with her?”. Xavier asked Vanessa. There was a dark look in his eyes, and one glance at his face, one could tell that he was ready to unleash his wrath upon Zuri. While still glaring at Zuri, whose hands had become sweaty, Vanessa replied to Xavier, “We should leave her be, Xavier. At least now I know that Claire is truly innocent”. After saying that to Xavier, Vanessa got closer to Zuri and squatted on one knee. She grabbed Zuri’s jaw and raised it up, so that Zuri was staring at her. “Live well, Zuri. Don't you dare try to escape from this house after I leave. One day, I might have a use for you, thanks to your dreadful talent. If you try to escape from this neighbourhood, please know that you will surely end up in jail for framing Claire”. Vanessa let go of Zuri's jaw. She turned to Xavier, who was standing behind. She said to him, “Xavier, I guess there's no need for us to compensate our host for the door you broke. After all, our humble host has a debt to pay
Upon arriving outside the mansion, Vanessa and Xavier rushed to the same car that Xavier had driven to the villa. Using the car key in his hand, Xavier unlocked the car's doors, before he and Vanessa quickly got into the car. Xavier drove off after that. As he was drawing nearer to the gates, he sounded his car horn twice, causing the security guy to come out of his house and open the gates immediately, for Xavier’s car to pass through. Now, Xavier's car was driving on the main road. “According to the location of that strange person, we have to drive for a whole hour before we arrive there, Xavier”. Vanessa sighed in defeat as she said to him. Because of the long distance, her hunch was telling her that the strange person must have committed a crime, for he or she to be staying at such a far distance. Seeing the impatient look on Vanessa’s face, Xavier noticed that she couldn't wait to get her hands on that strange person. A smirk appeared on the corner of his lips, and he said
“Yes, twin brothers. Xavier knows everything because I told him”. Vanessa nodded and said to them. She didn't want Mrs Charlotte to hear their conversation, so she said to them, “All of you, follow me to my bedroom”. Xavier, Eric and Derek obeyed Vanessa and followed her to her bedroom. As they arrived outside Vanessa’s bedroom corridor, they entered the room after they saw that Vanessa had entered the room before them. “Make yourself comfortable, guys”. Vanessa said to them, and she was also the first person who sat down. She was sitting on her bed, while the guys sat on the sofa. “Eric, Derek, you guys should understand that I have told Xavier about our secrets and our hidden identity. So please, I'm not ready to explain further concerning this matter. I'm tired of explaining stuff”. Vanessa spoke her mind. Though they seemed to agree with what she had said to them, and that was enough to make her glad. “Concerning the matter I have tasked both of you guys with, I h
Many hours passed and it was now evening. Gabriella was forced out of her bedroom because she was starving. She needed something to eat since she felt like she was dying. As soon as she came out of her bedroom, she saw Jasper, who was standing in the corridor and was staring at her with a smile on his face. “Oh. Has my princess finally decided to go out of her room? Tell me, are you starving already, princess?”. Jasper asked her. He forced himself not to laugh at her after seeing the pale look on her face. Gabriella didn't say anything and was quietly staring at her big brother who was busy having fun teasing her. “My princess, stop staring at me like that. I was not the one who told you not to eat anything”. Jasper said to her, before he became serious and added, “Let's go to the dining room. It hasn't been long since I made dinner”. Gabriella nodded at Jasper and followed him to the dining room. As they both arrived, she apologised to Jasper, saying, “I’m sorry, brother, for
‘What did I hear her just say?’. Tracey was glaring at Alexa who was panting fast, as she thought. Mr Lincoln was also staring at Alexa. He was speechless because of what he had heard her say. When Alexa saw that both Tracey and Mr Lincoln were staring at her in disbelief, she suddenly covered her mouth in shock after she realised the mistake that she had made. “Fa- father-”. “What was the meaning of those words you said, Alexa? Since when did my father's company become yours?”. Tracey asked her. Although she was composed, her heart was burning with intense rage as she continued to glare at Alexa. Alexa, who had never seen Tracey's true colours before, flinched, because of how Tracey was staring at her as if she wanted her to disappear. She also saw that Mr Lincoln was staring at her with suspicious eyes, and that was enough to make her shed tears. “Fa- father. It's not what you think. Waah! I- I- I recently saw the news about your company. I was so heartbroken and rushed
The reflection in the mirror was a tall fair lady with long blonde hair that's shoulder length. “Gosh, this can't be happening to me!”. Vanessa let out a loud scream before hitting the large wall mirror that was in front of her. Staring at her bleeding hand, Vanessa didn't mind and grabbed her cell phone. She soon scrolled through the news and each second she saw an article about how her company was about to go bankrupt, she grew even more annoyed. “Nicholas, that jerk! What an idiot!. I can't believe he has been using me all these while!”. Vanessa muttered harshly, and when she recalled how Nicholas treated her earlier this morning, she lost all hope and sat down on the floor. Actually, exactly an hour ago, after hearing the news about her company's situation, Vanessa went to meet Nicholas who was her fiance. She asked for his help, but it turned out that he had been using her and her company's fame the whole time just because he wanted to have a stand as the heir to T&N Co
