"What is wrong with you? Do you...""Dad stop it, I beg you, I will pay all the money Jack stole from us, please let him go, they didn't let me in anymore, I beg you." "Why do you want to see him?' Daniel asked, he kept quiet. "You lost your tongue.""Dad, he has Mandy, I don't know what they are doing to her, I beg you, let me have Mandy back." His tears fall, and Lisa runs to hug him, Lauren never begs, he always gets what he wants but here begging for Mandy."I said no, get out of here," Daniel yelled at Lauren. "Please...""Not a word...""Dad!" Daniel's face darkened when Lisa called him, he couldn't say no to this little girl, she was his love. "Dad please let Jack go, so we can have Mandy back." "Lisa, it's not as easy as you think, the man owes the family a lot." "Dad, I know but that money is nothing to you, please!" "Fine, you can go get Jack." Lisa hugged. Daniel and Lauren run out, and Larry goes after him"You are the best." Lisa pecked him. "Silly girl, now go back t
Lauren looks at him, and he takes Lauren's hand pressing it, Lauren never sings for anyone just for Larry and Lisa, when they fall sick, it seems his song is powerful, and they always get well. Lauren walked back to the entrance of the tunnel, he sat after closing his eyes like fighting his soul to prevent him from singing then his lips parted, and there came a voice which everyone was surprised to hear except Lisa and Larry. He is singing Love Me Like You Do by Ellie Goulding, taking the first line, Leah's mouth drops open, how come she had been dating this man but never knew he could sing, is he some kind of godlike? Mandy was lost but her heart was still free, she held her legs in pain, so tired to move, so exhausted to even gather her strength in her body, as she lay there, then came the faintest sound anyone could hear, but miraculously she heard the sound. She was not able to make out the sound but that voice was what she seemed to want to hear, at first she thought it was her i
"How dare your brother? How dare he want to take care of that woman?" Leah yelled as she too was not allowed in. "Stop it, stop creating a scene, the man wants to make up for his wrong, you talk him into this marriage of six months, so bear the heat." Larry pulled Tessa's hand, and they turned around and left. Lauren watched Mandy sleep with all the dirt on her body, he got a napkin and warm water, and he cleaned her body, he needed to get all the dirt from her, she didn't move during that time, Lauren is cleaning her, she is like a lifeless object. "Sorry bonbon! It will not happen again." Lauren just gave her a pet name, he just called her Bonbon, cleaning her, he needed to change her wears for a second, he didn't want to but he had to, after taking off her wears, he saw so many injuries on her even her foot and hands got bruises, his tears almost fall, he is always having teary eyes for Mandy. Mandy must have gone through hell, after that, he just covered her with the duvet, Mandy
After that, Mandy slept the rest of the day, Lauren didn't wake her up, so he let her rest, Leah is so frustrated that she is at Lauren's mansion, and Stone informs Lauren that he had a visitor. "Visitor!" "Yes sir, ma Leah." Lauren jumped very fast, he looked at Mandy lying on the bed, he grabbed his phone and rushed to the door, he locked the door behind Mandy, he didn't want to make the mistake of the first time, he is not going to make Mandy watch any more nonsense, he is back in his suit, his hand is inside his pocket, he darts towards Leah, Leah waits for him to walk towards her. "How are you?" Lauren asked her. "You should know the answer to the question." "Fine, I Know I haven't come for days...""Not just come but you are not taking my calls, have you been sharing your new wife's bed?" "Getting a..." Lauren didn't wait for her to finish, he stood up. "Where are you going?" Leah asked him. "Leah, I am busy, busy that is the reason, I don't take your calls, you should know
Mandy kept quiet for a long time, she was fighting herself not to tell a lie but she needed to get free from Lauren."Mandy love, go on and tell Dad." Edward's voice came up distracting her from her thoughts"No!" Mandy's voice came up, Lauren was mad now. "You such a liar," Lauren yelled at her, he didn't want to let her go, he couldn't even think of marrying Sharon, no way not in this entire World. "Lauren stop it, you know we don't love each other," Mandy said. "Is that the reason you are lying in front of your dad?" Lauren raised her head with his index finger, making her stare into his eyes. "Haven't I kissed you? I have not only kissed you, right? Didn't you like the way I kissed you? And I have touched you, right? You did like it right." His words are shameful but hypnotizing her, is the only way he could get what he wants, his burning gaze made Mandy nod unknowingly. He smirked, the man could be a devil, what do you expect? whatever he wants he gets nothing less"Shit!" Edwar
Leah looks at him, she doesn't seem to understand. "Don't give me that look, my dad wants me to marry Sharon since that woman is ready to marry me and the one in my house is not but she is the only one that will agree to our bullshit, and no one else.""That is true, I just can't wait for you and I to be together forever, like I always wish for." She ran her hand through his shirt as she walked her hand on Lauren's shirt button, doing that she pressed small kisses on Lauren, and Larry shook his head, as he dragged his keys. Lauren held her hand, she looked at Lauren not after pecking his lips. "What is it?" Leah asked as she kept doing what she was doing. 'Do you think..." His words didn't finish, Leah locked her lips on him again, Lauren couldn't hold it, he was in bed again with Leah, and she was sleeping beside him after their intimacy, he couldn't close his eyes, he just kept staring at the sleeping Leah, so many thoughts in his head, how come they don't have anything apart from
Kendrick is eating at the dining, Mandy walks into the dining. "Sleeping beauty is finally up," Kendrick said, Mandy face-palm herself seeing that she slept over time. "Good morning pretty!" Kendrick added making her look at him. "Good morning! It's just that, I was busy, looking for a company that I could audition for." She finds herself explaining the reason behind her waking late."Audition?" Kendrick asked as he munch on his bread. "Yes, I want to apply for modeling, I don't even know how to go about it." Kendrick wipes his mouth. "Why didn't you tell Lauren, he is the president of La La Entertainment," Mandy looked at him. "Yes, I am sure, even if you don't go through him, you will get qualified, you are pretty." She facepalms herself again. "You are shy." Kendrick snapped at her, his camera was beside him. "Hey, I will look terrible," Mandy said, he snapped more. "Where did you get that stupid idea?" Kendrick speaks, the man's voice is calm even though it is similar to that
"What do you want here?" Mandy asked, Sharon didn't say a word to her, she walked passed her and sat. "It's only right to give your big sister a warm greeting after a very long time," Sharon speaks, Nick gets her juice, it's customary for everyone to get a drink whenever they visit, and she sips on the juice. "Whoa! This tastes expensive, my husband is doing well." Mandy look at her with a clenched fist. "Let me go straight to the point, I want you to leave him, you and I know that you are still after Noor and I know that you haven't gotten laid, so you have to agree to a maidenhood test.""Sharon, are you stupid or just playing dumb?" Mandy is at the peak of it. "Come on sister, it's easy for you to do this for me, I know you don't love him...""I may not have loved him nor does he care about me but I will never give you the satisfaction of what you want, what is it with you? I thought you said he is a beast, a monster, and a heartless person, how come you want to be with the beast?

She said mentally as she slipped into simple wear, getting into the living room, where Tessa and Lisa are"You two? What are you doing here?" "Happy marriage anniversary!" "What did you just say?" "Didn't you remember? Is your marriage anniversary?" "Dammit! Lauren will kill me, I didn't even wish him one." She grabbed her phone to call him but the number was switched off. "This is not happening." "What happened?" Lisa asked. "His number is not going through, let's just say maybe he is having a network issue and he too forgets it, so I will just surprise him." "Really?" "Yes, we need to..." Her words stop, seeing Sharon's message."What Is it?" Tessa
Mandy is very exhausted after the party, she sleeps in the Car like the first time that they get married. She is so exhausted from the numerous dances that they made her dance, photograph, and take her marriage vows, everything was just too much for her but she is happy anyway, it's her dream come true. As soon as Lauren packed his car, he looked beside him, his heart smiled, as he saw the one woman he had longed for like all his life, and he pushed his hand under Mandy's cheek."Lauren stop disturbing me." "Silly, you are in the car, do you want to sleep here?" "Of course not!" "Then come down." "What do you mean to come down?" "I don't understand, you want to sleep here." "No! You should carry me." Lauren smiled at her silliness. "Go on!" "As your lordship pleases." he pulled her into his hand and carried her into the villa, he took her to his room, and Mandy just lay down. "Mr. Mask!" "Yes!" "Take off my wears, it's too heavy for me." Lauren couldn't believe that Mandy wa

"With Lisa and Tessa, about to have my gown...""No need for that, it's fixed, you should come out, Stone is there to pick you up, he will take you to me." "Where?" "Stop asking and don't come with Lisa or Tessa." Mandy smiled, for the past two days, Mandy had gone everywhere with Tessa and Lisa, from booking the venue for the registry to picking up the bouquet, everything was so fast. They were saying Tessa and Larry's wedding was fast. Lauren and Mandy's is faster. "Silly, I will not come with them." "Good, I love you." "Love you too." "Alright, see you soon." The call dies off, Mandy looks at them. "Go on, he doesn't want us to come with you." The two said in unison, making Mandy titter. "You two are silly." "Get going before he waits up his life, you should know brother hates the wait." Mandy pecks the two and hurries out, Stone is there, and he p
"Lauren? I told you, I am sorry, please take me back, I will...""Marry me!" Mandy wasn't expecting him to say that, she looked all lost, and then Lauren knelt before her. "Will you marry me?" Bringing out a ring, to propose to her, Mandy's tears drop, she had always wanted this, her dream was for her to marry the one man, her heart beat for and he should be able to propose to her, with a ring and him on his knees before and she felt Noor is the only person she could love but then again she fell in love with Lauren. "Come on Bonbon! My legs ache." "Sorry!" "Sorry for what?" "Mr. Mask, can you stop putting words in my mouth?" "Fine, I am patient." "Go on and ask me again." "Bonbon!" "Come on Mr. Mask!" Mandy caressed his face"Fine! Mandy Edward, will you marry me, Lauren Daniel?" "Yes!" "Whoa!" The screams made Lauren and Mandy shock, she rushed to the side of Lauren, only to see the entire family, Daniel's, and Grandpa Asher there. "Congratulations!" They keep hugging Mand
When Merlin finished he looked at her to say something but not a word came out of her mouth. "Go on and tell me, what you feel, if you don't love me, I will not force you to love me but what I will not want to happen is for our friendship to go under the carpet." "Merlin, I am sorry but I can't love you the way you love me." "Is it because you have someone else in your heart?" She nodded her head. "You are still in love with Lauren?" "Yes, I am in love with Lauren, I am sorry if I lead you on but the truth is, I still want Lauren, I just don't think I could love another." Merlin nodded, it hurt but he was expecting it, his heart kept telling him that, there was no way, Mandy could love him but he just wanted to push his luck, he turned the car around to drop Mandy, she had told him that, she is going to Tessa, he packs at Larry's, she held his hand. "Sorry...""It's fine, don't beat yourself, just go for your heart desires, if Lauren is what you want go for him, he is no longer wit
For one year, Lauren had been busy so busy that he didn't contact Mandy, not even for once, Mandy too was very busy, running Grandpa Asher's business, she didn't go back to modeling, she just had a different dream. But as busy as Merlin is, he still always contacts Mandy and the two can talk for hours like they were lovers, grandpa Asher is beginning to think that Mandy is in love with Merlin, he just doesn't want to push it but the truth is, grandpa Asher, want his granddaughter to settle with Merlin but he can't just make decisions for her.

"Not like some vocation but Tessa had her baby, some month back and I was very busy, I couldn't attend and...""Fine, you are free to." "Thanks, Grandpa! I will book my flight back." "No need, the private jet will take you there." Mandy's smile widens, she just can't believe that her grandpa will grant her that. Mandy messaged Dylan that she was coming to Sing
"Mandy!" "It's fine, come on, let's join the others." Lauren knows that Mandy is sad now, so he has to excuse himself. "Sure! Let's go." Getting back to the party, Lauren takes her hand. "Can I also dance with you?" She looks at him. "Please, don't say no to this." "Fine! Let's go." Marlin could watch as Lauren danced with Mandy, and Amelia kept calling. "Maybe, you should go home now," Mandy said as his phone kept ringing. "I guess it's a goodbye for now." "Sure! Goodbye!" Mandy turned, and Lauren held her hand. "Don't you think I deserve a peck?" She didn't say anything, she pecked him and then freed herself, Lauren wanted a kiss and a hug but then Mandy's decision was what they were working on. After the party, all the guests had gone, leaving Mandy and Dylan on the terrace alone. "Mandy, did you tell him?" She did tell Dylan that, she wanted to tell Lauren that they should come together but Amelia didn't make her."No way, I can't, Amelia is still in his life, and I don't
Although most people now know that Mandy is the granddaughter of Asher, the party had not to be held, Mandy is been attended to, Lauren had sent her what to wear for the party, not that, Grandpa Asher can't afford one but he just wants to be the one who picks a dress for her.
