"You didn't tell me, you were coming with him?" Mrs. Smith asked Mandy. "I was... No... I wasn't..." She stuttered, Shehan smiled, he never thought that the man, he was dying to have an interview with was here, right at his mother's house. "Welcome sir Lauren Daniel, my name is Shehan, nice to meet you." Shehan stretched his hand to Lauren but Lauren didn't take his hand, he was just staring at his face. His mind wanders, he is having a mental fight with himself, he just can't imagine, the boy in front of him, whom his mother had called handsome. "He is not even handsome." He said mentally, you shouldn't take Lauren to heart, the man in front of Lauren is handsome, he only said that because he felt Shehan was no match for his handsomeness but who calls someone handsome when you have no idea about his face? Mandy hit him. "What are you thinking?" Mandy said in a whisper. "Oh!" He takes Shehan's hand in his. "Nice to meet you two too." Lauren corrected himself, Shehan nodded, pointi
"It's painful to trust someone and then find out, that person makes a fool out of you, anyways, it's fine, I am fine." He sips on the wine. "Mandy goes home, I will be fine." "No, you don't expect me to leave you like this?" "Nothing is worth the trouble, whoever...'"Mandy is not just some random person, is Leah, Leah is Colm Lea, she is the same person, that has been taking money from the company. The one woman that I did nothing wrong to." Lauren echoed her name with pain, "Yes, it hurt to be betrayed by the one person you never did wrong." Mandy stares at him, she can't say she doesn't understand the pain. Lauren is going through nor does she know the exact way Lauren is feeling. She has been there, been hurt by the ones, she loves, Lauren had found out that the person behind the mess is Leah, the love of his life"Lauren, you need to calm down, and put yourself together, like you said, shit happens." "Do you think it's that easy, I have been a fool so many times, it's only a st
She was about to pull it, and Lauren grabbed her hand. "Don't do that." He said in his sleep. "I thought, you were drunk and sleeping already." "Tsk! So you want to take advantage of me?" The man's eyes are closed, he knows every fucking stuff going on around him. "Don't be silly, I don't want to take advantage of you." Mandy sighed and went back to the couch, staring at him. "Stop staring at me." Lauren's voice came up. She jumped in shock, how did the man Know that she was staring at him when his two eyes were closed? "I am not staring at you." "You are and it's irritating when you try to compare me with Mrs. Smith's son." "Oops! How did he know?" She whispered it, that is the thought in her head, she is curious if Shehan is far more handsome than him. "I know that is the reason you want to take off my mask." "Fine, sorry go to bed, I will not do that again, you need to sleep so you don't have a headache." "I am not drunk." This time Mandy tittered at his words and then ro
Dylan has no choice but to leave, he is coming out, and Mandy sees him and runs to him. "Let's go." "No oh! He needs you." "No, he is very selfish and ungrateful, he talks to people without thinking about their feelings, I only wanted to help him and then he felt I was doing it for my selfish desire, I don't even love the boy in question, and Lauren, I hate him." Dylan looks at her and then smells her. "What?" "I don't think so, if you hate him, you will not be smelling him," Dylan said. "I am not smelling him. why will I smell him?" Dylan didn't move his gaze then she inhaled it pushing her nose closer to the t-shirt, Lauren's cologne was strong and intoxicating, she could feel him, something in her moved her to hug herself, closing her eyes like she was imagining him in her hand. Dylan looked at her and then caressed her face. "Stay with him, help him calm his troubled heart." Dylan hugged her. "I will get you some wears tomorrow." "Thanks!" She said but she didn't move. "Wha
Sharon had slept through the night like some baby, the alcohol had given her some kind of solace and now that she getting sober, she hears those words again. Perfect, efficient, competent, beautiful, these words keep echoing in her head, and she gets mad and throws the stuff from the drawer shelf. "Damn you! I hate you." Sharon yelled, Susan was standing at the door."Do you want to keep hurting yourself like this?" "Of course, not, Mandy is too small for me to be threatened, I need to have some really good wash and I am going shopping." "Sharon!" "Oh please Mom, I don't want to remain here, I have a lot of things to do than to get stuck in this miserable place." "Fine, since you going out, I finally got a message from your dad, he said he will be coming in two weeks, so we need to get Mandy back." "Whatever!" Sharon said as she got herself into the washroom. "Annoying people."Susan smirked at her words, Tessa and Mandy were already at the mall, Lauren knew that Mandy didn't ha
Sharon closed her eyes, Mandy can't get away with this, is she trying to give her name to her in the presence of this audience no way, it's only she that could hurt Mandy, she is not allowed to hurt her, Mandy can't get the last laughed, over her sexy living body"You are shameless, I know you don't have regard for the family and you choose to pay the family kindness by dragging them into the mud. Is that how ungrateful you are?" "Kindness, I don't see that, your family treated me like nothing, they are not my family but yours." "Oh, is that the reason you sell your body to get into the modeling world?" "Is that how you keep getting promoted?" Asking her these words, Sharon's mouth trembles, it's true, sometimes she shares her body with men for her to get an endorsement. "Did a cat cut your tongue?" Mandy asked her. "Since you have nothing to say, I will leave you, so enjoy your shopping, and don't ever dream of me coming to kneel before you and your mom because I will never do th
Mandy had refused to come out since she returned from the mall, now that Lauren is back, she will have to leave the room since she can't be there while Lauren is having a shower. She gets down from the bed, as soon as he enters. "Where are you going?" Lauren asked her. "I figured you need privacy." "Okay!" He said, taking a few steps, Lauren back hugged her, she wasn't expecting that from Lauren of all people. "Why are you hugging me?" "I just thought you needed one." His breath fanned her neck, sending Goosebumps down her skin. "Can I hug you too?" Mandy requested, she needed someone to reassure her that she was nothing like those words Susan and her daughter made her feel, he just turned her to himself, she hugged Lauren tight then she found herself crying, she had held the tears for a long, she is all by herself in this life after Noor left, she felt she could deal with it but no, she doesn't think that she has the strength to fight against Sharon nor Susan. "Shh!" Lauren fin
Earlier that morning, Mandy had arrived a few minutes before the time, when the contract signing was to take place, walking on the red carpet, was like she was truly born for this, as she walked down, so many reporters rushed to her. "Mandy, after your account with your sister, you disappeared and now you appear, it's just to take your sister's life, was this all planned?" "Is it true that you are suing Metagrand Mall for accusing you wrongly?" "Is it true that Sharon was the one who set you up?" "Mandy, is it true that you are a daughter of a prostitute?" Mandy's smile faded away, and she hated the fact that they were dragging her mother into this, she didn't reply to any of the questions, there were so many that some she didn't remember, and to thought that she had come with no one except Bryan. Lauren is out of his office but he needs to see the end of it, even though, he is mad at Mandy for not telling him, he is aware that Mandy needs security, the young lady doesn't have an i
