‘The Mikaelson's are the only family I have Luther so what's your problem exactly?!'.Alice fired back as his immaturity was starting to piss her off as well.
He was charming,loving,kind before he even made his real intentions known and now they were dating he was acting very unusual.
Sure he didn't like Landon but the downright hatred, jealousy and insecurity he always showed is just enough and she couldn't take it anymore.
‘The Mikaelson's are a bad influence don't you—'.
‘I literally grew up with them so what in the world is this about?!'.She cut him off and he sighed deeply.
‘You still have feelings for him don't you Alice?'.
‘What...what are you talking about?'.Alice stuttered and took a few steps back when she saw the look in his eyes.
She hasn't seen anything like it an
‘To my darling wife or should I say ex wife,I leave my condo in Monaco and my 1893 Chervolet model car which I always know you wanted, it's worth more than a million so I hope you keep it safe'.The lawyer read the first part of the will and Melissa couldn't help but scoff.‘But they're divorced!! He shouldn't leave her with—'.‘Can you just shut up and get this over with?!'.Mark snapped and cut her off leaving her with a scowl on her face.Hubert frowned deeply and waited until the argument subsided and everyone was focused before he could read the remaining part which he knew was going to cause trouble.‘To Catherine,I know you have a passion for art and trust me Montero art galleries would be great under your care,you can name it whatever you want cause it's now yours'.He said and Catherine's eyes beamed with excitement.
‘I was willng to play the manipulative game mom but I think we're way past that stage now'.Kayla paced back and forth in her room with so much anger in her voice.He left every single person in the room with something and he just left her with a stupid prediction which she didn't want.‘I don't understand why he would do this and I know it's all because of Emily,she's the one who I'm sure changed that will'.Melissa muttered as she bit her nails.She didn't give a rat-a*s about her daughter and couldn't believe he didn't leave a dime to her name,at least their affair should've counted for something?.Kayla kept pacing back and forth until she got a text from her bank that stated a million dollars was deposited into her account, she was confused for a moment until Alice's text came in;“𝘐 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭 𝘣𝘢𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘋𝘢𝘥 𝘸𝘢𝘴'𝘯𝘵 𝘤𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘳 𝘸𝘪𝘵
Landon woke up the next morning and found himself in the study with Alice over by another corner still working and he saw that all his papers have been sorted.She was wearing her glasses this time and he remembered how she always used it when she was tired but won't stop working at the office,it was a small detail but he still reminded it anyway.‘You're awake?'.She muttered as she turned around.‘You didn't sleep?'.He directed another question filled with concern back to her and she smirked lightly.‘I wasn't really feeling sleepy so I....I guess I just wor—'.‘Please don't tell me you worked all through the night'.He raked his hands through his hair frustratingly and she pursed her lips.‘I worked all through the night'.The confession come out flatly and he heaved a sigh which wasn't one of re
‘It was your sister Kayla ma'am.She was the one who came earlier'.The maid whispered into Alice's ear,even though it was unnecessary,she just felt like Alice needed to know the truth.It wasn't the first time Kayla Montero visited the house and her boss wasn't interested in any of her advances which was a relief to her,she still wanted her boss to get back with his ex wife and Kayla was probably going to ruin it.Alice frowned deeply at Landon who was focusing on his laptop,she didn't understand what was going on and why he would lie about her sister visiting.She noticed there was a little tension between the two of them,hatred or something else she didn't know but she knew Landon wasn't a fan of Kayla.‘The maid told me Kayla came over,did you know about that?'.The question blurted right out and Landon's head shot up from the screen.&lsq
Kayla glanced both sides as she walked down in alley,she made sure no one was following her and then stopped when she reached a dark corner where Skipper Corden was waiting patiently for her.He was heavily built,bald and with a grim scar on his face that led from the corner of his right eye to his left cheek.She was rattled for a second of his appearance but managed to keep a straight face so as not to provoke him.‘Are you the—'.‘Yeah and you're the model on my sister's eye shadow palette package' Skipper nodded and Kayla frowned to have been recognized from just a mere product.‘Word on the street says you're the right man for the job,can you do it?'.She asked anyway and his brows perked up.His eyes took a full read, from her shoes to the expensive earrings on her ear, which led to the conclusion that she wasn't one from th
‘What in the world Skipper?!! I said cause trouble not shoot someone?!!'.Kayla was beyond infuriated as Skipper joined her in the car.He couldn't help it when he got spotted by the tall handsome guy who saw the gun and had no other choice but to shoot him,he wasn't ready to go to jail just yet.‘I couldn't help it and I'm saying the f**king truth,if only he just minded his business I wouldn't have shot him'.He said and Kayla felt the need to slap the dumb remark of his scarred face.‘All I wanted was for you to cause a little bit of trouble and yet your a*s out of the party,now you shot someone and you have to hand—'.‘Wait.You're not gonna say handle it myself are you!?!'.‘You shot him Skipper.His blood isn't on—'.‘Ohhh his blood is definitely on your hands princess,
‘What are you doing here Luther?'.Alice's voice was hoarse when she saw Luther standing in front of her.He looked so lean—too lean—almost anorexic,his pupils were dilated,and the dark circles under his eyes were so wrinkled like he had squeezed duffel bags under them.It was hard just looking at him.The once handsome Luther she met was now looking like someone whose AIDS are in the final stages and it scared her to death.‘I....I was at your place but they said you were here...I....I called you,you know??'.He was stuttering and she held her breath for a little moment.They weren't together but even his worst enemy would have a little bit of compassion for the way he looked which was downright pitiful.‘Sorry but I can't....I can't do this right now Luther....Landon was shot last night and I..'.’Oh I heard ab
‘Over my dead body will I allow you to do that?!'.Emily rose to her feet in anger as she couldn't believe what her daughter was planning on doing.Giving out her inheritance wasn't only reckless,it was stupid and foolish at the same time and until Alice realises that,she wasn't going to let her make that mistake.‘Think about it Mom,she might kill herself and it'll all be my fault, it hurts so bad know—'.‘This isn't up for discussion,Kayla is an adult and she is her mother's responsibility, it's not your fault that she is so jealous and insecure of your success,you worked hard for it and you earned it all on your own'.Emily cut her off as she cupped her cheeks with her hands,Alice opened her mouth to protest a little but shut it right back knowing it would be pointless.Her mind was made up and she was going to do all she could so Kayla could live
Lucas frowned deeply as Catherine forced him out of the car even though he just wanted to sleep,the weather was burning hot and they both received a message from Alice saying it was urgent.He shut the car door and kept on grumbling under his breath as Catherine opened her door with a key card only for them to meet Landon in the living room.‘What the f—'.‘Guess who's getting married......for the second time'.Alice said excitedly as she exposed the beautiful ring with a huge glistening diamond on it.Catherine shrieked for joy and launched herself at Landon who was lucky enough to catch her before she fell to the ground.She apologized about the Christmas dinner ordeal and he forgave her in a heartbeat.The doorbell rang and the rest of the family came in shortly,they also received the emergency message but seeing Landon paved way for the obvious c
TWO MONTHS LATERIt was a tough battle and since it was a long time the case of Madison O'Brien's murder was opened,the court battle was fierce and Luther's lawyer was one of the best people at his job in the country.However, Stacey's testimony pushed the investigators to look more into the case and they found more than enough evidence to put him behind bars for a long time.Other women who were victims of his abuse began to speak up and this led to another further investigation,his numerous clubs and hotels were just business cover-ups for his underground drug scale business where he dealt with cocaine.He was given a 25-year prison sentence and the rest of the O'Brien family were more than happy to see their son put behind bars when they heard about his crimes.Alice knew he was an addict and an abuser but she never really expected her ex-boyfriend, who she almos
A few minutes later Alice wakes up after Lucas Isplashed a little bit of water on her face, disheveled,still in denial of the truth revealed to minutes earlier,angry at how naive she had grown to be and afraid of what was to become.A little part of her still wanted to doubt Stacey's accusations towards her step-sister but it was all coming to place now—the bursts of anger,the coldness passing between the both of them,the huge amounts of money missing from the company's account that she didn't tell anyone else about except Kayla.It was all coming to place now.How did Kayla know she was doubting Landon about the whole secret admirer issue when she didn't even say anything??.‘Are you okay?'.Catherine asked as Alice rubbed a sore part of her neck in frustration.‘Y...yeah..uhhh...where... where is Stacey?'.Alice responded as she glanced around the room only to find Stac
Alice pretended to be asleep when she heard her door slowly creak open and heaved a sigh of relief when Catherine walked in with a perturbed look on her face.‘Is everything okay??'.She asked and Catherine gulped hard.‘I uhhhh....I uhhh....I think you should.....i think you should come outside someone wants to see you'.The quiver in her voice was enough proof to Alice that something was definitely wrong—she was tired—Landon was out of her life already and now there's another problem in her life to deal with.She reluctantly got out of the bed and went down the stairs only to find Stacey at the foot of it with her body shaking vigorously like she had the fever.‘Stacey??'.She called softly and Stacey flinched sharply as she turned around.‘Wh...what is...'’You have to help me,he's
FEW HOURS LATER....Alice blew her nose into the handkerchief handed over to her by Kayla,who was tired of keeping up with the supportive sister act.Landon was finally out of the way and Alice wasn't in the right state of mind which was a perfect opportunity to milk off her.‘I love that man Kayla and I....I can't believe I still do love him'.Alice cried out as she blew her nose again.‘He hurt you multiple times before Alice and he acted like he was a changed man......he isn't a changed man sis and it's time you move on from him'.Kayla muttered and then Willow started crying all of a sudden.Alice wasn't really in the mood but she picked her baby up anyway and patted her on the back so as to make her stop.The crying didn't stop and Kayla decided to take Willow outside for some fresh air just as Catherine walked in.‘Are you—'.‘
It probably wasn't a big deal but Alice still couldn't understand why Landon would hide the letter from his secret admirer—maybe she was overthinking it—maybe she wasn't—maybe she was having a hard time trusting the man she loved—maybe she was just scared of losing him.Well she why wouldn't she trust Landon.He did spend a lot of time redeeming himself and having fears over him cheating on her was beyond dumb.....it was also unacceptable as well.‘Don't ruin this Alice,don't f**king ruin this,you are finally with the man of your dreams and you are going to spend Christmas with him'.She whispered and took a deep breath before going outside.Landon was already asleep and she kissed him on the forehead right after she placed the card right back under his bed,he stirred a little bit but thankfully didn't wake up which was a relief.‘You know you could've
FEW DAYS LATER...The whole family arrived in Corazo valley to spend Christmas with Landon who managed to convince them to bring him along,it was also an excuse to get out of the hospital and spend time together with his family.His ribs were still sore so Alice helped him into the wheelchair and wheeled him into Grandma Lena's house with Willow enjoying the ride on his thighs.The house still remained the same,he noticed as he took a quick glance,the only person missing was his grandmother seated on her beautiful rocking chair and very expensive chinaware stacked in front of her.She would always clean the teacups with a full blue rag while whistling her favorite song, sometimes she would tear a piece of her rag and handed it over to him to join her in the cleaning.A tear mistakenly streamed down Landon's cheek and Alice brushed it off when she saw h
