Lucky Yet So Unlucky In Love Chapter 20 (Part 2)
“There she is!”Walking through a bunch of customers inside my store is now an everyday struggle for me.“Omg! She's so gorgeous!”I barely got up today.“Can we take a picture?” A girl in her twenties approaches me with a smile.With my head throbbing, I immediately declined her with the gentlest way possible. “I'm very sorry, I can't function well right now. My head is aching so bad. Terrible hangover. Can we take pictures later?” I glance at my wrist watch, “Before lunch. Can you wait or maybe return? I really need to take quite a rest in my office real quick.” I smile at her apologetically. Looking at her face, she seems very understanding and her smile turned gentle too.“I understand.” She responds, her voice not that audible for others, but for me it is.“Thank you so much. What's your name?” I continue to soothe the hell out of her when it's my head that I should be dealing with.“I'm Kayleigh. I'm a fan.” I can tell that she's trying so hard to seal her excitement inside. It'

“How's your head?” Lucas gently places the tray on the table with our orders in it.I flinch for a little when he mentions my head. I don't know why, but it hurts even more when it's acknowledged.“Still aching.” I reply as I continue to scroll through I*******m. There are pictures of Lucas and I, and it's everywhere. It's flooding my socials.‘Why are you with Lucas?’ I received a message from Trudy after a while when the pictures were spread by fan pages and by other people that like to feed off of my personal life.I ignore my brother's text, and I turn off my phone when Lucas finally takes the seat beside me.I knew that going out with Lucas will cause chaos both in my social life, and my personal life. I knew that people would be quick to conclude something by just looking at photos, and I knew that I would look stupid in their perspectives.But somehow, Lucas made me feel that I shouldn't really care. He made me feel that I should live my life the way I wanted.I have been living

I slowly open my eyes to the muffled voices that surround me.The first thing that I see is the white ceiling that indicates I'm lying down. That's when I noticed the soft mattress of the bed against my skin.“She's awake.” It was Lucas.“Thank you so much.”“Yeah. Whatever it is you'll need, Lucas. See you around.”Lucas is talking to a man whose voice is not really familiar to me. But I know in fact, that I am in a hospital and maybe he was talking to the doctor that assisted me.“Hey,” His hand quickly lays on my forehead to feel it with his touch. He's now extra gentle, and I don't know how to exactly react to it.“How are you feeling?” His hand moves down to my neck as if he's inspecting my temperature.“I feel fine, but my head is still throbbing a little bit.” I watch him sit on the bed just beside me with an expression on his face that I can't seem to name.“I know that I passed out. What did the doctor said?”Now, he has a hold on my wrist and he's feeling my pulse.“Just som

After Lucas took me to the doctor for more consultation, we cleared everything else for me to be released from the hospital.We're now in his car, and I have no choice but to be his passenger princess for today.“What are your plans for the rest of the day?” He asks, eyes focused in front as he drives out of the parking lot.“Not much now that I need to take some rest.” I stare outside the window as I observe the weather. The sky is still a little gloomy and a little generous for a light shower of rain.“Are you hungry?” I lean my head against the window and I close my eyes to avoid getting dizzy. “A little bit.” I respond, and then I feel his hands fasten my seatbelt for me.“Then we're getting food before I drive you home.”That was the last thing said before silence reigned over us.It didn't take a long time for the sprinkling to turn into a strong pouring rain. The weather must be feeling a little sad today. If only I knew, I should've stayed in my penthouse.With my eyes still c

“Wow, this is good. It's so tender and juicy.” I take another bite of the crunchy fried chicken after dipping it into the gravy that gives much more flavor to it.“You sound like you've never had fried chicken before.” Lucas laughs at me as he looks up to watch me enjoy eating what he bought us.He's sitting on the floor, and I'm on the counter top.“Well, yeah. I mean, it's been a long time since I've had fried chicken. I was trying to eat healthy.”Wait, was I?“Forget the diet for now. Just enjoy biting that thigh.” He takes a sip of his coke, and then he continues to eat; looking like he's the one who's hungry when he asked me earlier.It is still raining outside, but being inside with Lucas, feels so cozy and warm.“You know,” Lucas finishes off his meal with a last suck on his thumb that has gravy on it.“You should call your brother. He was trying to reach you out earlier. And until now, your phone is still ringing. Whatever how hard you try to hide it, well, my eyes have a good

His copper eyes pierce through my copper ones as he pauses for a moment because of what I had just said.“If you could only read my mind, you would know how much I don't want to make you regret all over again.” He gulps; not breaking the eye contact between us. “Just like you, I want this night to end well for the both of us.” Lucas finally closes the distance between our lips, and I once again feel how soft his lips are when pressed against mine.If only I could have this everyday, I would.His lips start to move down my jaw, to my chin, and to my neck.“Trust me, Unique. I want to learn how to love you.” He plants another kiss on my neck, but this time, he's doing it in a way that it would leave a mark.He's softly nipping my skin, and it's effortlessly turning me on more.“I want to learn how to adore your whole existence more than how I adore you now.” He kisses me again on my jaw, “I want to learn how to be brave, and how to be strong enough to face your family again if I can eve

“Good morning, Lucas.”His eyes are squinting because of the sunlight from the window, directly hitting his gorgeous face. Highlighting his copper eyes.He's now awake. Now that I'm about to leave.“Good morning to you too.” His voice still sounds sleepy.“You're up really early.” He continues to observe every move I make.I face the mirror beside his closet and I begin to do a slight makeup. Too bad I didn't get to do my skincare routine for the morning since I'm not in my penthouse, and that I don't have the products with me.“Yeah, I had to. I have an important meeting today.” I widened my eyes to put in some mascara. Confident that I wouldn't mess it up.“Oh, okay. But are you feeling better now? I mean, the slight fever. Is it gone?”I turn to him to answer his question. But when my eyes lay on him, all I see is a handsome and sexy man watching me get my makeup done. He's shirtless, and he's watching me with his arm supporting his head.He's posing like I'm about to paint him, an

“Are you sure about this?”The hesitations that Kevin is currently having right now is audible through the sound of his voice.I'm not going to back down now. Bryce needs to stop pestering me and the people that work for me.Isn't he tired of playing games?“Kevin, we have to do this before he can even succeed doing his next step. Before he can make another employee betray and leave me.”Truthfully, I am now doubting that Kevin is entirely loyal to me. I'm starting to think that maybe this isn't the first time that Bryce had contacted him, and this is a part of their plan.I have to make sure that Kevin wouldn't notice that I'm doubting him.“I'm done waiting for the right time to strike back, Kevin. He can't delay my plan; I don't want to risk it.”I sit on my swivel chair as I focus on my laptop. I'm going through the old connections that had given me help years ago. The friends and partners that had vowed to get me through every shot that Bryce could aim to hit me.I want to pull s

"Good morning, Kevin. Why are you grinning like that?"Kevin opens the door for me as we both enter my office.Last night was somehow special to me, but it definitely had to end. I have work for the next day, and so I went home to get some sleep.Hell, I only had a few hours of sleep. I made it in my penthouse around 2 o'clock in the morning."You could never guess." The grin on Kevin's face is now matched with his voice that sounds like he's about to drop a bomb before me.Usually, when he's like this, I always end up getting good news that makes me day. So, I don't feel nervous about it because I need something to motivate me do loads of work.But can't he just tell me?"Of course, I could never guess. But can you just spill the beans for me?" I sit on my swivel chair, and he settles himself on the chair in front of my table.He's still grinning like an idiot."You haven't checked your phone yet, didn't you?" Oh, now he's taunting me."To be honest with you, I didn't have the time t

“So, how cruel is life to you lately?” Heide pours me a glass of champagne that my head tells me to decline. But I've had enough declining, so I'm taking this one.Just this one.“I would say about forty percent. I mean, you know. Same old shit. I disappeared for five years, and now that I have come back, nothing much has really changed. I just feel stronger now.” She hands me the tulip glass and I accept it with my gut bubbling in excitement.I really missed drinking liquor.“You're still loaded with work?” She takes a sip of her champagne.I nod, “Yeah.”“And there's still a problem with your Uncle Naveen?”“Uh-huh.”“Still no long-time lover?”“Yes, positive. Still no long-time lover.”I can see that she's having trouble believing me, but at the same time I know that she trusts me. I don't know how to put in words, but that's how she looks right now with her frowning and with her eyes squinting at me.“Why is it so hard for you to find a lover?”I know that she's seriously asking m

“Call me when you can, okay? Update me about the family dinner.”I swear to God, I want to roll my eyes every time I say ‘family dinner’.“Sure. But maybe I'll be in Vegas next week. So... let's update each other, I guess?”Harvey laughs after saying his goodbye as he enters his car. I wave my hand at him, and then I also climb into my car after I watched his disappear.We had a long conversation that it took us a long time to finally get to the part where goodbyes are said. If I didn't mention that I have to drive my ass all the way to Heide’s place, I don't think he'll even think of going home.But I'm glad that he will chase the love of his life.The woman surely doesn't want to be found, but Harvey is doing everything to find her. And I doubt that he won't find her since Harvey does have a lot of connections to deal with situations like this.Well, I have nothing left to say. But to wish them both good luck.Dear Destiny, kindly give my brother and my cousins their deserved happy

"What are you talking about, Harvey? He can't do that. He doesn't have the authority."Harvey starts to massage his forehead as he rest his head on the couch. It's clear that he's already stressed enough about it, yet I'm still adding more to it. Making it worse for him.Well, how the hell should I react? He can't expect me to be happy regarding this shitty information."That's what I thought too, but I guess the whole family decided to give him that authority since his one and only son is finally back."What? Uncle Naveen's son is back?Oh hell, what is happening?"So, it's going to be a dinner dedicated for his son? Welcoming him? Is that it?"The audacity. Uncle Naveen couldn't be more shameless. He's a thick face, and I don't understand why the whole family would just let him have things his way.And now, I'm certain that it's going to be hell for all of us because his son will definitely add more fuel to the fire.His son is an exact carbon copy of him. We used to get along with h

“What?!”As much as I want to, I can't contain the sudden attack of surprise within me.After assisting the girls earlier, I went straight to my office to call my friends. And now, we're all face timing each other.“Yes, Aurella! You heard me right. Now, what are we going to do?”It must've been God's plan to urge me to call my girls. If I didn't, I wouldn't know that Heide is now out of prison.“How is that possible? I mean, wasn't she sentenced for like a decade?”I'm not certain how long she's supposed to be in prison, but I didn't expect her to be out this early. She must've used a huge amount of money to be out.God. That woman and the power she holds.“I don't know anything about it too. But yeah, it's like she was sentenced for a decade or more.” Liv's voice is quiet and calm, but I can still sense that we all share the feeling of being afraid.There's no reason for us to be afraid. After all, Heide is our friend for such a long time. But after what she's done to Conrad, I don'

“She’s so secretive, and sometimes it makes me wonder how those two suddenly found their way to each other and became a couple.”This woman beside me is now spilling too much information that I’m unaware of if I’m even allowed to know it.I haven’t even moved past the fact that Bryce Tryst has a girlfriend, and this woman here decided to blabber on and on.“Their relationship is so private that they can’t be seen together in public. My friend said she feels like Bryce is hiding her, but somehow, she was able to shrug it out of her system. He showers her lavish gifts though.”It doesn’t feel like she’s here with me to buy an engagement ring anymore. A little bit of this TMI chat, I will start felling like Bryce hired her to pester me today.But why would he? The hell I care if he has a girlfriend.“I mean, what else is there to need, right? If I were in her shoes, I wouldn’t even feel like my boyfriend is hiding me. I will feel like I’m single instead, and I’m undeniably rich. How good

After all the interactions that I have made with the customers, I finally get to head to my office to have a short rest. It’s quite draining to entertain people, and sometimes people on the internet tend to forget that.They tend to forget that celebrities are also humans. We also get tired.“What’s that?” Instead of greeting Rina, a question gets ahead of me with my interest being caught by the bouquet of white roses on my table.“Oh, someone sent this for you, ma’am.” Rina is in between of keeping her smile or letting it show because it’s starting to creep in. She’s losing to herself because I can see that she’s also intrigued.“There’s a card in between the flowers, but all I saw was the name of the receiver.” She hides her face by covering it with her hand. But before she can even fully hide it from me, my eyes already saw that she’s blushing.“Let me kill your curiosity for you, Rina.” I chuckle, as I walk to my table to see the card myself.My hand quickly picks up the card that

“He lied to you, Unique. I wouldn't use you to forget her.”Lucas is standing in front of me, and both of his hands are making gestures as he continue to talk. I sit comfortably on my swivel chair; convincing myself not to take every word out of his mouth too seriously.I was about to do make an ‘anonymous’ agreement with the people that Bryce has transactions with. But then, this man showed up.“I know that I should've told you from the very beginning. But I thought that it would be more fragile if I mention her name to you.”Yeah, right. More fragile, my ass. He's kind of making a point, and I know that I will instantly flinch once he mentions her name. But I still do think that it might've been better if he told me as early as it can be.Because right now, I can't think of any good reason why he wants to make it up to me this time.Nothing as good as his aim to show her that he's better with me.“I'm sor—”“Why don't we talk about this later?

When the phone call with Vincent ended, I didn’t waste any second and changed back into the dress that I was wearing earlier. I returned the robe to where I took it from, and I gathered my things before silently leaving the hotel room.There’s a part of me telling me that I shouldn’t trust Vincent, but how else would he know about Lucas’ girl best friend? How else would he know about Dahna’s sister? If it’s a trick created by Bryce and Vincent, at least it helped me to separate myself from Lucas.It helped me realize that Lucas will never be mine.As I wait for the elevator to open, I start to type a message for Kevin regarding the first thing that we will be doing tomorrow. Lucas had already brought too much baggage in me, and now that I know about his hidden motives, I am willingly putting distance between us. I need to focus on what I must do, and what I must not do.I can’t promise to myself that I will never be fooled again, but I will try my best. Knowing that once I start givin
