Mary had a small and youthful figure, so even when she was in her early forties she looked very young.
''And I don't want everyone to live in pain, so I'm letting him go so I can be with the one I love. The feeling is mutual, so there's no bad blood.” She smiled but the look on everyone's faces was the opposite.
Dorothy was beyond shocked. Her eyes searched through everyone's faces and it seemed she was the only one oblivious of everything going on in her family.
''You all won't kill me before my time;” after the longest time, she shook her head as tears clouded her eyes. Mary stood up and walked to her, hugging her tight.
''I'm so sorry mom, I didn't plan for this to happen; things just happen and we have to live with it.” She patted Dorothy on her back.
Lillian, who was quiet, finally found her voice. ''I did the unthinkable and I'm sorry, I wish I didn't hurt everyone this way, I regret my actions and I know I don't deserve for
A smile was plastered on Tylor’s face as he drove to his house; he was reminiscing about what happened earlier that day. When Tristin introduced him to Liam, he had expected her to introduce him as just a friend, but she said he was her boyfriend, and she didn't even mince words. It made him so proud. ''what are you thinking about?” she asked when she noticed that he was smiling sheepishly to himself. ''Ah, nothing, I was just thinking about today,” “Oh really? Which part is so funny?” Tylor glanced at her and cleared his throat; ''Ehem, nothing, forget it.” “Mmh,” she laughed and watched outside the window; she was happy. Everything was falling into place now. she was jerked from her thoughts when her phone rang in her bag, she took it out and the smile on her lips paled. ''who is it?” Tylor asked when he noticed that she was not picking her call. “Uh, it's my father;” she swallowed; what did he want now? Sighing, she
''Come outside, I'm waiting for you.”Before Evie could say a word, the person on the other side beat her to it and that instant, sleep flew from her eyes.Blake…She had been worried so much since he was called for investigations immediately after Joshua and Melinda’s death. She wanted to go see him but Liam had advised her not to because of the media. She was famous and it was going to cause an uproar if she was seen with him, so she held herself.Evie had been checking online for news of him but after the death of Benjamin, the reporters stopped with the articles on him and went on to the juicer topic. She was sleeping when she heard her phone ring from beside the bed. Sleepily, she answered the call without checking who the caller was, and that was when she heard the voice she had been longing to hear for days now.“Bl…Blake…” she jumped up on the bed and peeked at her phone, her eyes wid
Tristin’s feet stopped the moment she stepped out of her house; she recognized the men in front of her, they were from the Lodge house.''What do you want?” she asked with an irritated tone;''The Prime Minster asked us to escort you home; please get into the car miss,” the guard said, pulling open the door beside him. Tristin’s eyes glanced at the car and then she turned to the guards;''Tell him I'm busy, will come when I have the time.'' she said and without waiting for their response, she started walking towards her own car.''It's an order miss and we were told to apply force if you do not comply, it'll be to your own best interest if you follow us calmly; ''She stopped in her tracks, shocked and dumbfounded. Did her father think that he was going to force her to talk with him?She scoffed, even if he locked her up, she won't even bat an eye at him. Gritting her teeth, she turned to the opened car and got
Tristin didn't catch his tone and she continued; ''I'm sorry for how I behaved today, I was just angry that you had to kidnap me just to meet them, but you can stop with the husband hunt now. I'm already dating someone and we are so much in love. ''The room fell quiet after she finished talking.“Mmh, Tristin; '' Mr. Brown called in an amused tone; ''you don't mean what you just said now, do you?”Her creased her brows; did he think she was joking or what?''I'm very serious, his name is Tylor and I have pictures of us together if you think I'm lying to you.”Mr. Brown smiled; “Mmm…Tylor … what a nice name, what does he do? ''''He is a director and an actor and he works with many companies in the country ''“Oh, interesting, and what do his parents do?”It was when he asked that question that she realized what he was driving at; her heartbeat increased;''They… t
“Wow! Beautiful!” Evie exclaimed as her eyes watched the ocean waves, she thought of a thousand places Blake wanted to take her but she didn't think he would bring her to the beach and in the night at that. There was no-one, just the two of them and it felt romantic.''I'm glad you like it.” He said, a smile on his lips.She took off her slippers and buried her feet into the soft sand,“What are you doing?” he stared at her puzzled,“We came to the beach; don't tell me you're going to go back without feeling the water.”Before he could say a word, she started running towards the ocean;“Evie! Stop, you don't have spare clothes if you get those wet!” she laughed as he watched her run, her legs almost touching the back of her thighs.''Come on! It's wonderful!” She exclaimed and Blake sighed; rolling his trousers, he ran towards her. she laughed as she ran further into th
“I promise you I can handle it; can you just tell me what's wrong?” Tylor mouth ached from asking the same question over and over again. He was surprised when she came to his house by past twelve in the night, her face red and teary, she hugged him tight immediately she saw him, not wanting to let go.She cried throughout the night and no matter how many times he asked her what was wrong, she refused to talk.He thought of a thousand things that must have happened at the white house but he could not imagine any.“Beb, you hurt me when you're like this, tell me what it is okay, a problem shared is half solved.” He tried to coax her into talking. If she actually kept crying like this, she was going to fall sick.Tristin stared at the pretty face in front of her, after a few seconds, she touched him with her hands, feeling his skin. There were a lot of things she still wanted to do with him. They haven't even done any of those thi
''what are you doing? '' Kate asked when she saw Liam by the window side as she woke up from sleep;''I'm drawing; ''''What? '' she was naked on the bed, with numerous bite marks from last night and her hair was thoroughly disheveled.Liam’s eyes fell on her body and he pulled it away slowly; ''you; ''“Haha,” she laughed; ''how can you keep sketching me every day?'' She stood up from the bed and she picked up her a shirt that was kicked off the bed the night before, and wore it. Walking to him, her eyes fell on the picture and she smiled; he was sketching them sleeping together.“Eish, why do you look prettier than me here?” she pouted, he was incredibly handsome on the picture and looked like an idol as he slept, well that was how he looked real life.Really? If I'm prettier than you, then I should model start modeling, don't you think?”Kate slapped his chest lightly; ''you're not that handsome,
Bernard….She had been avoiding him, mostly because of guilt. She still loved him but this was the best thing she could do for herself right now. She wanted to work on herself, become a better person, and going out with Bernard wasn't going to help her.Rejecting the call, she blocked his number before walking into her house, but her lips fell open when right there in the sitting room, he was standing with his phone in his hand.They stared at each other, not saying a word. When Lillian finally came to her senses, she blinked and looked away from him.“What are you doing here? '' she tried to sound annoyed but her tone failed her, her voice came out rather needy and she bit her lower lip. She didn't like being like this, weak and vulnerable.“Lillian, I… ''“Just leave…” she cut him in knowing that one more word from him would send her running straight into his arms and she knew she would regret i
