39B*Earlier*Lucien had heard some footsteps pass his door side since he was still working .He was working on getting a shoot since it had been long he had one .Yes modelling was his side hustle .He stood up to go check the cause of the footsteps because he was sure Lucia should be in her room and if possible sleeping .Leaving his laptop on, he picked up his phone and walked to the door .He opened the door slightly and pushed his head out a bit to observe the environment before going outside and when he confirmed nothing suspicious ,he came out and decided to go get a glass of water in the kit kitchen ignoring the one in his room .He came into the sitting room and noticed that a low illumination was glowing there .He palmed his face for forgetting to put it off before going in .Only for him to get there to find Lucia standing by the open fridge with a strawberry in her hands that is ready to be devoured if not he came .*Now ..* " Well well well ,seems we have a little culpr
40Thelma arranges her hair properly in front of the mirror as that was the remaining touch ups she needs .She added a little bit of more of her signature lipgloss to her lips and gave out a satisfying smile at her new change .Derrick sneaked into the room with a dull face and Thelma wondered what was wrong as she walked to him where he was sitting on the bed. " Babe what's the problem " she asked sitting down but he just sighed ." Nothing is wrong Thelma " he said and she was taken aback because she cant remember when he called her by her first name..She just waved it off as it might be because of his dull moods ." But you don't look okay to me " She said holding his face in her arms but Derick removed her hands gently . " I said am fine " Derrick said trying to put his anger in check ." Ok ok , I told you I would be going to Lucien's house today , Do you mind if we went together. " She said with a small smile ." I mind Thelma . Send my greetings to Lucien " he said and fel
" I can't give you a clue why Derrick is in a foul mood as you just explained . I called him few minutes before you got here and he sounded alright. So I can't really say " Lucien said to Thelma who was looking worried . They had just finished eating and Thelma who had a worried look on couldn't eat much which made Lucia ask what the problem was. " Ok I hope he gets over what ever is bothering him , since he doesn't feel like sharing " she said and Lucia rubbed her back to ease her worries . " He will be fine. Lover girl , calm down " Lucia said with a grin and Thelma chuckled . " Talking about lover girl, what's going on between you and my boss " she asked winking at Lucien who was itching his neck nervously and Lucia who moved her eyes around the ceiling . " Wow your expressions are so amusing ," Thelma said and laughed .. " So how is the wedding planning going " Lucia asked avoiding the topic . Thelma grinned on knowing what she was doing but decided to let her feel she has
Dos groaned as he opened his eyes and looked around the surrounding he was .He can't believe that be is in his father's ware house and how could be be sleeping for two days now .That why he hated those memories because they left him unconscious and useless .On other occasion , he usually ends up in the hospital but since this one was a fight between him and his dad , he remains in the warehouse and thank goodness he was giving a bed to lie down .He ruffled his hair trying to remember what he was forgetting and then like a flash.CAMILLA He recalled.Where could she be ?? Before he can rearrange his thoughts , the door opened and the man he hated so much came inside followed by Dr Albert their family doctor .Dos felt his anger building up but he decided to suppress it to avoid making the same mistake now ." Wow seems my little son who became a man and started challenging me is awake.." His dad said and anger flashed through his eyes but dissappeared immediately .Dr Albert who
43Thelma pulled over in the garage of her house as she was about opening the door , her phone started ringing and she brought it out to see that Lucia was calling .She relaxed back in the seat of the car as she swiped the answer button on the caller screen ." Hey babe " she said smiling sheepishly. " Hey Thelma . " Lucia's voice echoed ." Yeah do you miss me so much to have called me few minutes of leaving the house . " Thelma said and she could swear that Lucia would roll her eyes at her now ." Well stop hyping yourself and listen " she said with an authorative voice and Thelma chuckled. ." Ok go on " she replied. " The question you asked ,, about me loving Lucien today ...She paused before continuing ..." I love him a lot and I just realized that I feel incomplete without him " Lucia said and Thelma squealed in excitement making Lucia pull the phone away from her ears to prevent blockage. Lucia returned the phone back to her ears when she heard the laughter die down ." S
44Dr Albert followed Mr Gavier trying to walk briskly as possible to avoid giving him a suspicious activity. Mr Gavier opened the door and Dr Albert gasped at the girl lying down looking so frail and weak . He cussed him angrily in his mind but remained calm if he wants this plan to be executed without a fail . Mr Gavier excused the way for him to pass and he went in looking at Camilla who had opened her eyes looking pale at him .He turned to look at Gavier who stood rooted by the door .He prayed for him to go so he can talk to her but seems he wasn't ready to leave ." Be fast about this Albert , I have other things to attend to. " He said and he nodded facing her back .He brought out a cotton wool and spirit and cleaned the little injuries which she had sustained probably when struggling . He gave her a reassuring smile that all was alright as she winced. Camilla felt a special calmness and connection with the doctor and she couldn't place why . She wasn't completely relax
45Lucien opened his laptop as he entered the room .Lucia had gone out to get a few things. .He opened it and went to his mail because that was where the business deals were being made ,He saw the one from Cara and he opened it ." Wow Cara just signed a business deal . He cant be more than proud of her . He scrolled down and saw the invite and creased his elbow.Why had they requested his presence also Cara was the one who made the deal not him so why this. He sighed , he had no other choice because he just had to go and it would not be nice if Cara goes alone . It won't tell good of the company .He sent her a mail back that he would be coming then and congratulated her for securing the new deal .He can't wait to tell Lucia but he hopes she doesn't get mad that he would be making an impromptu travel tomorrow . He rubbed his head as he remembered Thelma's call ." Hello Lucien , a simple question. Do you love Lucia " she asked .Lucien was taken aback by her question but quick
46Time of escape. Lucia told the driver to take another direction that would lead to another street .The driver obeyed and quickly diverted but he was smart enough to follow them .Lucia cussed him under her breath . Today was t her day really as she had claimed ." Driver you see that car following us , I want you to turn him around till doesn't get a glimpse of us again " she said and the driver nodded ." But ma it's an increase in your bills you know" he said. " Just drive " she almost snapped but tried to stay cool. The driver being familiar with the road , he sped off taking a turn which has four juncture .He room a round before taking the straight road and sped off. Tony banged his fist hard on the steering wheel on the realization that he had missed her .Dan. He was sure going to get her because he admired her and wants to get to know more about her . Be reversed and rode through the way be had come . Lucia heaved a sigh of relief on seeing they had outrun him. S
77 Lucia picked up the pen and jotter as she sat properly on the bed. She started drafting all she needed to do for a new apartment .Her privacy was cut short when Thelma ran into the room with a happy and joyous face .The face you have when you remember your wedding comes up in a week time ." So babe what's up. Why are you so happy this morning . You nearly broke down this door ." Lucia said placing the jotter and pen by herself ." My wedding gown just arrived . Want to check it out with me at the store " She said and Lucia groaned. " Just tell me you want to bring me outside . I will understand " Lucia said with a smirk ." Fine you got me there . You know babe you have locked yourself indoors and it's not good for you at all ,you should at least appreciate the natural view of life . Youh.. " It's okay Thelms , enough of your long epistle,I will be coming with you " Lucia said cutting her off and Thelma jumped up happily making her belly shake a bit." Be careful ,the b
76 " Dos let's leave " she said giving Jay a last look . " Make sure you destroy every feelings you are harbouring for my girlfriend or else " Dos said and went after Camilla . Jay felt his knees go down as his hands shook. Why was faith so cruel to him . All the girls he loves turns out to be in love with someone else . This was him saying bye to relationship for now. " Can't believe that guy spoiled our make out " Dos said with a slight groan. " Don't be too naughty , we are always with each other remember " Camilla said poking his cheek as they went in for the new class . People in the class were surprised to see both of them together but they were not bothered one bit as they went to their seats . Camilla looked at the door and sighed when she saw that Jay was not coming in and the class is about to start . Dos looked at her and sighed before standing up . He left the class and the lecturer came in immediately . " So class how are we doing now . How many of you h
75 California" So we would be having a practical class this morning and its going to be you and your partner , the best team with the least time wins " the Prof said and there were mumuring in the class ." I will advise you to keep shut so you don't miss your name when it appears on the projector . " The Prof said shunning them because immediately almost the whole class payed attention to the projector which had started displaying the names. Camilla palmed her face as she saw her partner's name and turned to see a grin on his face causing her to roll her eyes ."Jay shouldn't be trouble " she thought because from the looks of things, he has feelings for her.There was commotion outside as everyone quickly faced the entrance of the class. Camilla inclusive .A lecturer entered the hall with a new student who was putting on a face cap and a mask and only his eyes were open ."Wow he is hot " she heard some girls say behind her but she wasn't interested as she payed more attention to
74Thelma sighed as she rubbed her back before hugging her tightly to himself .The hug was broken by the steps she had on the stairs. If she was not mistaken , the feet belong to more than one person .She stood up immediately but before she could get to the door. The door opened revealing Derrick and Lucien who walked in.Lucia folded her fist as she stood up from the bed and got into the bathroom there .Lucien sighed as he palmed his face .He had messed up big time ." I think you need to give her space Lucien . That's why she left . Seeing you here is going to aggravate the situation " Thelma said and Lucien sighed ." Please help me talk to her , if I lose Lucia , I might die " he said tears threatening to drop out of his eyes. " Don't worry she won't leave you. She just needs space ." Thelma said and Derick patted his back ." I love you Lucia. Please forgive me soon " he yelled before leaving the room.. ..Lucia sat on the floor as more tears ran down her face .She co
73Derick pulled out of the garage in his Lexus and drove down the road with one destination in mind .Lucien's house .He saw someone wave at the car from afar asking him to pull over .Seems it was those random people who wants free ride due to limited cabs .He decided to help and immediately pulled over and the lady got in ." Where are you headed " he asked looking at the lady with a hint of familiarism in his eyes as he started the car and drove off" Twitzers " she muttered and immediately Derrick remembered her immediately ." You work there right ? " he asked to confirm his suspicion ." Yeah I do " Bella said feigning ignorance. " Well you were the one who packaged my order that day " he said and Bella paused for a while before smiling ." Yes that's right . I remember you now ." She said brushing her hair backwards with her hands . " Ok that's nice , we are here " he said pulling by twitzers . Bella bit her lips wishing that twitzers was far away ." Uhmm can I get your
72Lucia felt her heart tear and her eyes tear up as he left the room .Her heart wasn't willing to stop loving him no matter how hard she tries . .She just find herself falling more deeply for him .She sighed as she took a look at the soup and the hangover pills he had brought .She felt the wave of headache hit her again and she quickly took the pills and flushed it down her mouth with water .How silly of her to think she won't need the pills .She sighed when a thought came to her mind .She has to leave the house , because staying close to Lucien would kill her the more and as for Jason , she felt like strangling him to death . She relaxed her head on the bed rest again as she sobbed the more. Why was her life so unlucky,?Why did the she have to lose her memories?Why has no one looked for her ?Was she this useless...Camilla walked into the school carefree as usual .It was her third day already and she found the school exciting. Everyday she goes home to tell Dos every
71Tony picked up his keys after he had taken the sixth glass of alcohol and gave a tip to the waiter standing close to him .Despite the alcohol in his eyes , he still felt stable a bit and could drive himself home .He had come to wash off the images of the pretty lady in his head but it was not working as it seemed that the images became more clearer than before. He got out of the bar ignoring the calls from the ladies there who were surprised to see him come into the bar , drink and leave without getting laid by any of the ladies there , the popular playboy boy and cassanova .He got into his Lexus as he drove out of the bar with no place in mind .His house won't give him the relaxation he needed now because his friends were there and going back to Jeff's room would only make them bug him about what was eating him up and he wasn't prepared to say anything and Jeffhad been calling him since but he had ignored all of them and even sent some to voicemail. He raked his head thinki
70He got outside and saw Lucia already driving out and he quickly got inside his car as he followed her slowly .He was going to follow her because he knows she wasn't in the right state of mind to drive and this is such a big risk she was taking .Was she this hurt " he thought as he ruffled his hair . . .Lucia noticed a sport car following her at her trail and she needed no magician to tell her it was Lucien. He was acting all nice for her to forgive him so he could break her heart again. . . She stared around and when her eyes fell on the blue eyes looking at her ,she muttered "MY SAVIOUR .."she said and looked at Lucien ."How do you know am your saviour, I thought you had amnesia and you were unconscious that night "Lucien said " I can't remember anything , believe me ,who are you . Are you my friend " she asked looking at Lucien again .Lucia laughed hysterically as she remembered that day .She had even called him her Saviour .How pathetic of her . Why do you hate
69Lucien followed the direction of the tracker making sure the throttle was in full motion .The direction was leading him to a bar .Lucia was in a bar ?? Oh this was no good He hastened the car as he drove faster to get there on time incase she was in danger . Road users cussed at him as he drove past them with full speed but that was not his business now because they don't know he is the CEO which they adore if not they won't be saying those words . . He drove closer to the bar atleast that is what his tracker said and finally he was there .He drove into the parking spot and parked at the back of the GLK Lucia has brought there .He came down immediately making sure the car security were in check and walked inside the bar .He eye scanned the bar taking everyone in and searching for Lucia anywhere ." Hey handsome " a call girl came swaying her hips and licking her lips .One glare from Lucien was enough to scare her off as the next minute she wasn't by his side anymore .His
