Love Against All Odds Chapter No.65: The Mother's embrace
Lillian Montigue:-"You're going to give up just like this?" my brothers asked as they paced around in the living room "That bastard shouldn't have kicked you out like this. He is to be blamed, as you. Hell, you aren't even the one to be blamed. Whatever you did, you did it to save our sister, to avenge her.""And, I am still not going to stop. Now, that I know Liam is the one behind this, I am going to kill him and the plan stays just the way it is." I announced, wiping my tears after changing into my casual clothes "Lucas doesn't deserve this, but his family does. I know Lucas is very much capable enough and has his own money. Why? Because he has businesses all around the world, the businesses he has kept secret from everyone, except from me, so he is going to be fine and still be a billionaire.It can't be said about his parents. Because, they will lose everything. They knew what their son did, and they still helped him, hid him all this time from everyone. You are free to bankrupt
Love Against All Odds Chapter No.66: Lucas comes to meet Lily
Lillian Montigue:-"Mom, I don't know what to do. Her fever just won't go down." I cried as I looked at my niece suffering with fever, barely able to keep her beautiful eyes open. All she does is ask for Lucas and it is all my fault. I did this to her. Emily left her daughter to me in my care and I have faield her by bringing pain into Lily's life too."Calm down. You know very well what you need to do." mom said placing her hand on my shoulder while dad paced around in the room, so does my brothers, worried for Lily. "Honey, you know he won't come so why are you bothering?" dad asked mom "All I know is that my granddaughter is suffering in all this.""I...I will go to meet him at his office." I said in a trembling tone with tears in my eyes "I am the one to be blame for Lily's condition. I shouldn't have involved Lily in all this. It's my fault she got too attached to Lucas and begin to consider him as her father.""What? NO! You are not going anywhere near that bastard." my brother
Love Against All Odds Chapter No.67: I won't forgive you
Lillian Montigue:-I woke up in the morning and went running in the bathroom when the nausea hit me. Damn this morning sickness is killing me. I puked in the toilet bowl, when I felt a familiar hand holding back my hairs. I wanted to turn around and make sure if it was the person I think it is, but my stomach thought of something else. I vomitted until there was nothing left in my stomach. I pulled back and rested my head on the cool wall of the bathroom and looked at Lucas with dizzy gaze."Lucas, what are you doing here?" I asked "Shouldn't you be at home?""What happened to you? Are you feeling alright?" he asked "Why were you vomitting?""Just caught a stomach bug." I answered in a weak tone "I will be alright." I lied. I can't tell him about the baby or he will snatch my baby from me "You didn't answer my question. What are you still doing here? You didn't leave at night?""I needed to make sure Lily was alright, so I stayed. Which is the reason why I came to talk to you in your
Love Against All Odds Chapter No.68: Getting married to Isabelle?
Lillian Montigue:-Lucas took Lily and me for breakfast in the morning, when I didn't want to, but since Lily wanted to go out with Lucas, I had no choice but to tag along. My family was against it, but they only agreed for Lily. This little girl is ray of sunshine in everyone's life."Daddy, you are the best. These pancakes taste delicious but next time I want the one in princess shapes, like you brought for me the other day." Lily tells Lucas who smiles and strokes her hair with a biggest smile on his face. I know I have broke him, but he still cares about Lily, because he geniunely loves Lily like his own daughter. As for me, I don't think I stand another chance with him after what I did to him."Aren't you going to eat anything? You breakfast is still untouched." Lucas asked, without looking at me as his eyes were still fixed on Lily, as he fed her with his hands."Umm, I don't feel like eating anything." I tell, which was true because I can arely eat anything in the morning witho
Love Against All Odds Chapter No.69: The pain and the hurt
Lillian/ Emily:-We were heading back home after spending a whole day out to cheer Lily and make her feel better. Even Lucas took her to the doctor's clinic to get her checked and currently she was sleeping in the backseat of the car, after getting exhausted. This whole day Lucas avoided me like a plague. Only talked when necassary and I know I deserve this."Are we going to talk about this, Lucas?" I asked and he huffed."What's there to talk about? You hurt me, you played with me,wanted to send me behind prison or worse kill me and today, because of you my company is suffering and my parents are sick. My father had a heartattack and I am trying to put the company back together. All thanks to you by the way, for ruining my life." he snapped arrogantly in a low whispered voice."I am telling you again, the only reason I am tolerating your presence around me is because of my child in your belly and for Lily who doesn't deserve to know the truth. The last thing I want to see is that inn
Love Against All Odds Chapter No.70
Lillian/ Emily:- I stood and watched until Lucas finally drove out of my compound before his car’s tail lamp became out of sight. My heart ached and I was finally coming to terms with the words he had uttered and his cheating on me. I dried my tears realizing that as much as I despise myself I still have to care for Lily and the baby in my womb. At the mansion, my father, Emiliano, was waiting for me, and the scowl on his face faded for the sight of my red irritated face full of tears. “Lillian,” he said softly taking me in his arms and hugging me. "What did Lucas say?" “He just wants to co-parent,” I said in still small voice and tears streaming down my face. “He is planning to marry Isabella and he wants to have joint custody for our baby and Lily. ” Emiliano's eyes hardened. “Lillian, after everything that man has done to you, he has no right to be in your life anymore It’s time for you to start over, away from all this. ” I stared at him for a moment, not immediately com
Love Against All Odds Chapter No.71: She's my woman
Lucas Bennett:-"Hey, Lucas Baby! I missed you so much last night. You said you will come to my place last night. I kept on waiting for you, and called you but you never picked up." Isabelle said in a seductive tone as she entered my office, came from behind and wrapped her arms around my waist while I was looking outside of the window with the drink in my hand."I am in stress, Isabelle. Can we please talk later. I am going through so much in my life." I answered, furious at Lillian or Emily. I loved her so much and she betrayed me like this. It hurts, and what hurts more is to watch her hurt.I know she regrets what she did, and I can see love for me in her eyes, but only love is not enough. if she had really loved me, she shoud have trusted me, and shared this with me, but she never did. Instead, she played with me and now she has taken Lily and my unborn child with her and disappeared."I told you, Lucas. I told you that you shouldn't trust her. But you never listened to me, and n
Love Against All Odds Chapter No.72: I will make her mine
Lucas Bennett:-"Tell your boss that I am not leaving from here until he talks with me." I snapped, pushing the security of Emiliano who was stopping me from meeting him. I am not going anywhere until he tells me where has he sent Lillian and Lily. What type of a father is he? Doesn't he knows that his daughter is pregnant and shouldn't be left alone? She needs care and someone to look after her and Lily so she can rest."Mr. Bennett, please listen to us and leave or we will have to throw you out of the company." one of Emilian's guard threatened when Emiliano stepped out of his office, dressed up in a designer Armani suit. He glared at me and nodded at his security team."Let him come." he ordered and they all left leaving me with Emiliano as I followed him to his office. He went behind the bar present in the corner of his office and poured me and himself a drink before taing a seat behind his desk and signaled me to sit on the chair present in front of the desk."So, what the hell a

Love Against All Odds Chapter No.85: The Baby Loss
Lucas Bennett:-"I am sorry, Mr. Bennett. We tried everything we can but we couldn't save the baby." the doctor informs, with a regretful and sad expression, "When she was brought over here, her blood pressure was really high, and she was under a lot of stress, we asked your wife to take it easy as her pregnancy was already a bit complicated."I almost lost my balance and saw stars before me as what the doctor was telling me registered in my mind. We couldn’t save the baby. The phrase resonated with me where each word seemed to hit me in my chest like a drum. I attempted to draw a gulp of air into my lungs but that seemed very difficult as if all the air had been evacuated from the room.All the things that I have done were blown away and all that filled my head was Lillian and how she clung to me, how she begged me to protect our child, her terror and suffering. And now… I’d failed her. I’d failed them both. “When…when can I see her?” I barely got out through a dry throat, my voice
Love Against All Odds Chapter No.84: Giving In to Desire
Lillian:-"Or else I will forget that I love you and go for the mission that is left unfinished." I threatened "Yes, I still feel this burning fire of rage inside of me. I want to kill your brother and your father for defending him, hiding him after finding out what he did.Your father knew that he murdered a woman, and yet still he protected him. All this time I thought he was protecting you, because I didn't know about this twinie thing. But, now that I do. I will go after my target. I am going to kill your twin, Lucas. I am going to snatch him away the same way he snatched my sister away.That's the problem, Lucas. You are just thinking about the pain you are feeling because of my betrayal, but you have to understand that I didn't betray you. I didn't know about Liam. You can hold me accountable because now I don't care. You spending and sleeping with Isabelle was the last call. All this time I was punishing myself for hurting you, when you don't even see or feel my pain.You are n
Love Against All Odds Chapter No.83: Don't touch me
Lillian Montigue:-I stormed in the house in anger after Lucas's actions and heard him follow me. How dare he talk to that man rudely when he was just trying to help me out? He has no right to feel jealous when he has been the one who went to fuck that bitch Isabelle, after making it clear that he will not have sex with me. No, I won't stand for this. He can't disrespect me like this."Lillian....Lillian, stop!" I heard Lucas call for me but I didn't stop, instead I looked over my shoulder and glared at him, while he carried Lily in his arms and whispered something into her little ear because she got off his arms and ran to her room. Lucas tried to reach for me, but I pushed him away."I said don't you dare touch me and how dare you kiss me out there after using those lips on that bitch, along with other body part of yours." I whiper yelled "Go to hell, Lucas.""Only if you come along with me in there because hell will feel boring without you."I made fists with my right hand Bewildere
Love Against All Odds Chapter No.82: Lucas's Jealousy
Lillian Montigue:-I was done crying the whole day. For the whole day Lucas after breakfast, he hasn't return. I bet he has fucked Isabelle several times by now. How much I wanted that to be me, but I know, it won't happen as I won't let him touch me or do anything. He wants a marriage of convincence, right? I will give him that.From now on, it is going to be just that. It will only be pretending in front of the public while in the home, we are going to be nothing but strangers. He has made it clear himself that he doesn't want to have sex with me since he has got Isabelle to fulfill his needs."Alright, sweet girl. Do you want to come with mommy and go out for some ice cream?" I asked Lily who was just done studying. Her face lit up all of a sudden when she heard me and jumped up and down in excitement and ran towards the foyer to put on her shoes and coat without me asking for it."I am ready, mommy. Shall we go now?" she asked with a puppy dog eyes and I laughed as I picked up the

Lillian Montigue/Bennett:-"Thanks for thebreakfast, it was delicious." Lucas thanked, after finishing the plate of his breakfast and looked over at my plate, that was left untouched as I didn't feel like eating. I knew the moment I put a single bite in my mouth, I would be running to the bathroom to vomit until nothing was left in my stomach."No, I am scared that I will be spending hours in the bathroom after that. I already feel nauseous due to the morning sickness." I answered "I can't eat now, but I will in a few hours when I feel better."He leaned forward and put his hand over mine, tenderly."Lillian, you simply have to eat something. Nevertheless, it will keep your stomach calm no matter the portion is small or not. The baby requires you to be strong."I gave him a small, appreciative smile. "I know, I will. It’s just…" Trailing off, I looked down at the food on my plate that I had yet to even touch. "Things smell too strong, and everything is too much for me."He smiled quie
Love Against All Odds Chapter No.80: One step Forward
Lillian Montigue:-I lay there eyes closed and could hear the passion and determination in Lucas’s voice as he argued on my behalf, as he dared to cross his father for me. An odd feeling of comfort came over me in the centre of my torso. I’ve been so focused on our suffering and anger toward each other that I didn’t let myself consider how Lucas might feel.But listening to him, listening to the passion in his voice as he talked about me and our child broke my heart in ways I never thought possible. I know he loves me and going through a hard time because of me and my actions which is why I am ready to bear them as long as I can be with Lucas. After marrying him yesterday I realized that it's better to have Lucas in anyway, than not having him around at all. I want him, I want to see him everyday, I want him around me, Lily and our unborn baby.I felt my heart was going to explode as a soothing feeling came over me and I couldn’t pretend any longer. I opened my eyes, surprising him.

Lucas Bennett:-"What is it, dad?" I asked, picking up the phone annoyed after looking at the screen "What do you want?""Is it true?" he asked, and I knew what he was talking about."Is what true?" I asked, looking at my laptop screen as I tried to get the work done. I know I have got the Bennett company back and got things sorted out, but it doesn't mean I can sit and wait to get doomed again."You know what I am talking about, but fine, if you want me to say it then hear it." he growls "Did you marry that bitch who ruined us?""First of all, you are not going to call her a bitch or disrespect me in anyway. She is my wife and the mother of my unborn baby." I snapped "And, if you dare call me again then I am going to make sure that you rot in prison with your criminal son Liam. Speaking of Liam, I heard you have gotten him out of the prison by bailing him out. How could you do that, dad? You know how cruel he could get and still you did that. Why?""Because I have failed him and I w

Lillian Montigue:-I had jsut laid down on the bed after finishing my work, and sending the files on my dad's email when Lucas stepped out of the bathroom with only a towel wrapped around his waist after shower. When I looked at him, I gulped and begin to feel things.Things I didn't want to feel but looking at the man standing over there in just a towel, with his magnificent well-muscular chest and perfect abs on the view, I couldn't help but feel turned on that I clenched my legs and tried to move my gaze but couldn't when I heard him chuckle."Do you want this, wife?" he asked, in a raspy tone with a teasing grin on his face "Don't be shy. You can tell that you want me, after all it is our wedding night and you should be fulfilling your husband's needs. So, aren't you going to fulfil them?"His words made me irritable; however, the sight of him standing there so arrogantly, so wet and so utterly sexy was something my body could not ignore. There were moments of fury and arousal all
Love Against All Odds Chapter No.77: Newlywed Couples
Lucas Bennett:-"Oh my God! I am so happy, Daddy!" Lily squeals when we told her that we were married. She was jumping up and down in excitement and threw herself at me. I caught her and embraced her small body in a hug and kissed on her head "You fulfilled the promise you made to me, daddy. You are the best father in the whole world. I love you so much.""And, I love you too, princess. There is nothing in this world that I won't do for you." I tell her and glanced at Lillian who stood a few feet away from me, nervously rubbing her arm. I felt bad for treating her like this, but I didn't have a choice. I needed to make her marry me, because I knew she wouldn't have married me, if I hadn't forced her.I don't want to give her pain, but what about my pain? I am still trying to cope up with the feelings of her betrayal and how she played with me.I want to forget this, but somehow it keeps popping in my mind, bringing the sour memory of the day that was suppose to be the most beautiful d
