ANNA

"I'd like to thank you so much for the evening Kelvin, it was lovely and I had so much fun," I said to Kelvin as he walked me to the front door.

"You really shouldn't be thanking me and I should be the one thanking you instead. I appreciate the fact that you even took out of your time to go out with me and I'm grateful to you for making my evening even more amazing," he replied and I smiled a little.

I had condemned Kelvin in my head because I assumed that he was nothing but an arrogant bastard that thought that money could get him whatever he wanted and since I didn't like such people, I didn't expect much from him and I didn't think that this evening would go well at all but to my surprise, the evening went better than expected and it turns out that Kelvin isn't so bad after all.

I admit he did have his flaws here and there but since I wasn't any better than he was, I had to appreciate him and I ended up finding him very funny and very easy to talk to and now, I understood why

    ANNAHere I was again, kissing Alejandro as though my life depended on it. Our lips moved in sync as we kissed with his hands running up and down my waist to my ass.He squeezed lightly on my butt cheeks and I moaned into his mouth, wrapping my hands around his shoulders. He plunged his tongue in and our tongues danced in dominance with my right hand running through his hair with the other hand still firmly around his shoulder. Doing things like this with Alejandro felt very different and I honestly don't feel the way I feel with him with any other person that I happen to make out with and I know that it is shameless of me to be so into my sister's husband and for our sexual connection to be this strong but, I couldn't help how I felt and whenever he and I got together, I just tend to lose my reasoning and I become a complete idiot. The fact that we always ended up like this anytime we had an argument was actually very annoying and I also hated the fact that he didn't have to do muc

    ANNA"Good morning," I said in a cheerful tone, joining my sister and Alejandro in the dining area for breakfast. For some reason, I haven't stopped wearing a big smile on my face since I woke up this morning and I'm pretty sure anyone would notice the huge smile on my face. "Good morning to you too, Anna. Is it just me or are you in a really good mood this morning?" Alice asked, staring at me with a suspicious look on her face and I simply chuckled in response."Well let's just say that I had a good night's rest and I woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning," I replied, sticking a smile on my face. "Now, I don't mean to jump to any sort of conclusions but seeing how you're being so happy and energetic the morning after your date with Kelvin, is it right for me to assume that this good mood of yours has something to do with him and has something to do with how your date went last night?" Alice asked, giving me her usual curious stare and I almost rolled my eyes at her. "I

    ANNAI paced around the room impatiently, tapping my fingers lightly on my phone as I waited for Alejandro to pick up the phone. I was getting a little frustrated and upset because I kept calling and calling and yet, he wasn't picking up the phone. I tried remaining calm but the fact that it wasn't picking up the phone was getting me even more upset than I already was and I just desperately needed him to pick up the phone so that my day isn't completely ruined. I recalled that he had mentioned something about having an important meeting that was going to take quite a while but I was hoping that he would be done with his meeting by now because I needed to tell him that Alice was on her way to him and that he needed to find a way to get out of the office as soon as possible so that Alice's visit won't ruin our plans for the day. I cursed under my breath in frustration when the phone ended up ringing without anyone picking up and then, it occurred to me that he could be ignoring the ca

    ANNA"I'm aware of the things I say to you might seem like I'm exaggerating and because you and I just met only recently but the truth is, I really like you and every time we get together and I spend time with you, I realise just how much I like you and just how much I want things between us to work out," Kelvin confessed.It was honestly becoming a struggle for me to avoid rolling my eyes because I didn't want to disrespect him and I also didn't want to make him feel bad but at this point, I was getting very frustrated with the fact that he hasn't stopped confessing his feelings for me and making things awkward between us. I know she just wanted to hang out with him because I did not want him to find out that Alejandro and I were meeting but seeing how he was running the mood by repeatedly telling me that he liked me, the only thing I wanted to do was just get out of here and be on my way home. "Okay," I said, keeping my response short since I had nothing else to say. "Is that an a

    ANNA"Finally Anna, you're home! I was already getting worried about you and thankfully, you're just in time for dinner," I heard Alice's voice say to me as soon as I attempted to sneak up the stairway and just go to my bedroom. My day was already horrible as it is and the only thing I wanted to do was just head back to my room without having to see anyone especially Alejandro and Alice but, my dear sister just had to ruin the plan by being everywhere. "Oh, I didn't think you'd be waiting up for me," I said, trying to act as casual as possible. "Well of course I was, I wasn't too sure if you'd be out late and since you didn't tell me who it was that you were meeting, I was a little on edge but it's all good now that you're here. If you haven't eaten anything, come join us for dinner," she replied and I forced a small smile. "Thank you for worrying about me and I apologize for not getting in contact with you earlier and letting you know that I was fine but anyways, I don't think th

    Chapter 31ANNA I couldn't get any sleep for some reason and because of this, I decided to while away time by watching videos on YouTube and doing absolutely anything I could so that my eyes would get tired and so that I could finally fall asleep but it seemed as though nothing was working and instead of trying to keep forcing myself to sleep, I made up my mind to just keep watching videos and I was doing just that until suddenly, I heard my door slowly being pushed opened and as soon as someone walked into my bedroom door, I'm quick to switch on the lamp. I wasn't even surprised by the fact that it was Alejandro that sneaked into my room not because I was expecting him to but because it's just not a surprise to me anymore. I was scared for him because one of these days, he's going to get caught sneaking into my room and when that happens, I have every intention of denying him. I placed my phone on my bed and folded my arms across my chest while staring at him with an unbothered lo

    ANNAI watched as Alejandro and Alice made out in front of me almost as if they were forgetting that I was standing right there in front of them and that it was disrespectful of them to act so passionately in front of someone else. I simply looked away because I didn't want to get too upset and I didn't want it to be obvious that I was fuming on the inside. I hated the fact that Alejandro wasn't even trying to be subtle with his affection for Alice and I found it disrespectful especially since he and I have come to an agreement that we were going to go with the flow and enjoy each other's company for the time that I'd still be here and that is exactly what we've been doing in the last few days. I had already packed everything that I brought here including the things that I bought here because I was going to be leaving tomorrow and now that I was leaving, I was feeling slightly conflicted and confused. Alice and Alejandro still had their tongues stuck in each other's throats and I w

    ANNA "I'm so sorry I'm late, Anna. I had to quickly attend to some important work before coming here," Kelvin explained as soon as he arrived and I watched him hurriedly pull back a chair to sit. "It's not a problem and I also apologise for suddenly calling you out to see me," I replied to him and he chuckled. "To be honest with you, I was very surprised when you suddenly called me and said you wanted to meet up with me because whenever I asked us to meet, you claimed that you were busy and you did this throughout the week but I know that was only an excuse on your part to avoid seeing me," he said. "I don't know what exactly gives you the impression that I was lying but I wasn't because the only reason I came here in the first place was to hang out with my sister and catch up with her and since I haven't exactly been able to do that since I got here, I decided to make time for her and that is exactly what kept me busy," I lied. "Well, if you say so then I have no other choice but

    ALICE "I am so sorry Alice. It's all my fault," my mother cried and I had to pull her back from the hug."It's none of your fault, mother. You did nothing," I told her, wiping the tears in her eyes but she shook her head."It's my fault. I caused all of this. I should have been a better mother. I should have seen the signs and known when things were wrong. I was just being stupid letting them fool me and allowing them to act like some married couple and hurting you more than ever. I'm so sorry Alice," she spoke at length with tears in her eyes and her voice croaky.“It’s not your fault, mother. If we all begin to take blame, then we all have our faults according to Anna. The truth is, maybe this was meant to do from the start. Maybe I should have never gotten married to Al. Maybe I should have never fallen for him but then I did and that’s it. It’s all fine.”I let out a small sigh. “It was difficult for my mother. Maybe I took the punishment too seriously…”I said that in regards to

  • Love, lies and, secrets   130. A new start

    ALICE I used to hear a saying all the time that sometimes when something feels like the end, it can sometimes just be the beginning of a new start for you and all you need to do is just be ready to embrace whatever is coming to hit you. After the emotional roller coaster that I have to go through and after reaching my goal of getting back at Anna and Alejandro for everything that they did to me, I couldn't help but feel kind of empty on the inside but I was trying my best to remain hopeful and positive because I felt like I still had a lot of things that I could end up doing. Anna ended up in a psychiatric hospital where she is being looked after and as for Alejandro, I was successfully able to divorce him and since he didn't sign a prenup with me, I was compensated with half of his properties and I still had the company in my name because I refuse to give it back to him.Alejandro has been trying to get across to me for a really long time now but I refused to grant me any sort of

    ALICE "As for you Alejandro, you are a sick and disgusting bastard not just for lying to me but for putting me in this condition and without considering the fact that I'm here because of you, you did so many horrible things that even led you to losing so much. You are a disgusting piece of shit and I hope you rot in hell," she hissed at him, with an upset look on her face. She grabbed the nearest chair in front of her and threw it toward Alejandro and the way she was acting was so creepy and crazy at the same time. I was honestly quite amused that I was successfully able to drive her crazy and make her seem crazy but I kind of felt bad for her that she was this way when she had so much potential but anytime I remember everything that she did to me, I end up being happy about my actions and laughing at her for finding herself in this situation. "I'm going to advise you to remember the condition that you're in and get a hold of yourself because I'm definitely not in the mood to deal

  • Love, lies and, secrets   128. It’s mine

    ALICE"I honestly don't care about whatever it is that you just said right now because as far as I'm concerned, this company is mine and there is nothing that you can say or do to take it away from me no matter how hard you try," he said in a stern and confident manner and I laughed. "Are you trying to prove to yourself that you're not a good listener or what? What other proof do you need to realise that this is no longer yours anymore because it's now in my name and the official document says it all?" I retorted, finding his confidence quite amusing. I had every intention of playing with his emotions and making him feel frustrated for every time that he made me feel less of myself and for making me feel like I wasn't good enough because of his habit of being unfaithful. Alejandro glanced at Freya. "How could you have done something like this to me even after I trusted you so much? So your only objective for approaching me was to just set up a trap for me and watch me fall into it?

    ALEJANDROThe minute I heard Anderson mention something about what I did to Alice, I couldn't help but question if he already knew about the situation that was between Alice, Anna and myself and I couldn't help but also question what he knew and how he found out. I was starting to wonder if the relationship between Anna and I wasn't as discreet as I told you I was because even Freya mentioned something earlier and it kind of bothered me. "It is exactly what I just said and you can freely take it however you want to," he answered."The both of you hurt Alice and you expect her to want to see you both happy? Why would she? And you think the papers are forged? Do you not recognize your own signature again or you need someone to confirm that you indeed signed those papers?" he asked."You need to be more direct with whatever you're trying to say because I don't understand what you're trying to say," I demanded. I couldn't understand what he was going on concerning Alice not being happy

  • Love, lies and, secrets   126. The truth hurts

    ANNAThe fact that Alejandro just stood there and kept listening to all the nonsense that this stupid girl was saying to me without defending me or telling her to shut her damn mouth up was very upsetting to me and I found it very disrespectful that he didn't even have the balls to just stop this. The only thing that I could think of was that he probably told her everything that happened between us because absolutely nobody knows the whole story and judging by the way she's talking, it seemed as though she knows quite a lot and Alejandro telling her everything was definitely the only way she could have known all this. I hated him for saying things about us to a total stranger that didn't even understand the basis of our relationship and I also hated her for having the audacity to say all this nonsense to my face when she doesn't even know the whole story or understand my relationship with Alejandro. "You have absolutely no right to talk to me however you please I'm going to have to

    ALEJANDROI had no intention of going to work today but I got a call from my secretary that a woman was waiting for me and I asked for her description only for the description to match Freya's. I was confused as to why she would show up in my office without informing me first because it's unusual for her to just go there without telling me and I couldn't help but wonder what she wanted by going there.Since I already told Anna that I was going to spend the day at home, I had to quickly lie to her that something came up and I had an important job to finish up so that she wouldn't find it weird that I suddenly had to leave the house. Thankfully, she didn’t ask what it was that I was going to do and I was able to leave without getting questioned unnecessarily.I called Freya on my way to the office because I needed to know why she went there with her telling me first but she simply told me to show up first and I would talk when I arrived.When I arrived at the office, I saw her standing

    ANNAFROM ALEJANDRO: Come to my office. I want to see you. I have something to discuss with you in person. I was really surprised to see this text message from Alejandro because he just left the house not too long ago and I didn't understand why he couldn't tell me what he needed to tell me while he was around. He also knows that I've been trying to avoid coming to his office because of my pregnancy. I don't want people to ask me questions on who the father of my baby is and he and I agreed that I wasn't going to show up at the office until I gave birth. I tiredly made the decision to get changed, take a bath and head to the office even though I haven't a clue why I needed to go there. I didn't feel the need to take a driver so I drove myself to his office while thinking of what he could possibly want to say to me and why he made emphasis on my presence being important. I arrived shortly and got out of the car. I made my way to the company building and thankfully, I was allowed i
