CHAPTER 111Laura's nose twitched in irritation as the words settled in her ears and she flexed her muscles to suppress it. Rian smiled at her again and reached for her hand, having sensed the unwelcoming demeanor. "It's not something much honey," he said softly. "I just really need it and there's no one else I can turn to" He raised his hand to her face and tilted her chin to look at him. His eyes were glowing as she stared deeper into them, Laura's resolve began to weaken. An all too familiar feeling creeping into her chest. "What do you want?" She said in resignation. "what do you want from me this time?" "It's nothing much babe," he tucked a strand of loose hair behind her ears as he slowly pinned her to the wall. "I just need some money" She rolled her eyes irritation. "As always." "It's not what you think babe," he said in defence, *"it's just that.." "How much do you need!""Oh babe I know you're..." "How much do you want me to give you Rian," she cut in again."Okay I
Chapter 112Chris quietly snuck out of the pub after listening to the conversation between Rian and his paramour. He needed to let Laura know what kind of man Rian was. As he got into his car, he turned in the direction of Laura's house, hoping he would meet her at home. As he drove, he wondered if Laura was going to believe him or not. But he was determined that whether she did or not, he will still going to let her know the truth. A few minutes later, he got to the house, parked the car and got out. He looked towards the building, took a deep breath before approaching it. He walked into the house and made his way straight to Laura's room. When he got to her door, he raised his fist to knock in the door but stopped immediately he had Laura speaking. It seemed like the conversation was over the phone. "Send me some money from the company's wallet," she had said. "How much exactly would you like me to send to you, Ma'am," her assistant said over the phone although Christopher did n
CHAPTER 113She walked out under the heavy downpour, she was confused as she was drenched by the rain, her heart beating faster each time still trying to figure out what was happening at the moment.She didn't know what to do at that moment, if she should just go back home and just forget that' he had fucking lied.Again, all that was playing through her mind was what she had said.Without the fact that her heart was thudding heavily,all wouldn't have been quiet—As she continues walking, the entire situation sends a thrill throughout her body as she was unaware of the swerving effect that filled the room, causing goosebumps to pebble on her pale flesh.“Get it together,” she tells herself. By now she was at the apartment, she is unsettled at the moment as she takes in the interior of the building, to her it wasn't the way it should be, it appeared to be much more less sophisticated than she had always seen it.As a matter of fact it appears in a way that seems blurred.She was
CHAPTER 114Like he had no choice, or rather like a lost puppy seeking its path Christian walked with her outside, it was the most absurd moment for him still almost as though he was compelled.Perhaps he was compelled by the woman's remarkable beauty, the moment her gaze came into contact with his, she could feel it too in her soul as her stomach erupted with butterflies from Just standing in front of him.It wasn't the first timethey had been together for a while, yet she had always felt the same way.A crazy heart, would pulses, dilated pupils — she could feel it all at once as she was almost like a who was infatuated with something so precious despite knowing it wouldn't be hers fully.she felt that way, but as it was at that moment she ignored the ridiculous feeling.Under the shimmering sun the two sat , smokin. Each could feel that warmth rising from deep within them before radiating through the entire room again.“Are you sure the twins are fine?" I asked.He sat still for
ÇHAPTER 115Etched into the dark air, his gasp filled the environs of the garden lid enough that the two adults's kisses turned to the direction.He stood right there glued to a spot, she could hear every raging heart beat, her soul raced as there in the path stood Rian, his silhouette shrouded by the rays casting a shadow over Theo figures.She stared at what had broken earlier enough to cause that noise, In a distance an agitated dog barked, or was it a coyote?At that moment, Laura, whose heart was Still pounding restlessly, couldn't say anything, she sat there glued to the one spot she had been filled with uncertainty.What was the worst that could happen… Her eyes dilated stared blankly at the man.“I can explain." She muttered.Not that she had any need to but seeing him that way made her guilty, it was like an arrow flew right through her heart piercing a vein.She could feel the toxicity of that moment flow with her blood stream as it was blurry all of a sudden.“You know, I
116Alternating looks between Christian and Rian, Damien didn't make an immediate move.“I'm not done yet.” Christian suddenly yelled, grabbing the cuff of Rian's shirt. Pulling him to himself, he began to rough handle him while yelling curse words at him.Rian, not wanting to be the weaker one, grabbed the cuff of his shirt too, reigniting the fight that was paused when Damien arrived earlier. Laura, who was glad that Damien's presence was going to put an end to their fight, quickly walked to him and then tugged his arm, “Are you going to stand here and watch them tear themselves apart? You have to do something.” She yelled. Nodding, Damien replied, “Yeah, you're right.” Before he could even think of taking a step towards them, the fighting duos turned in his direction at once and with the glare they sent his way, it was enough to make him remain rooted in the spot. “This is going to be harder than I thought?” He muttered. This time around, he didn't mind them, he lunged into the
CHAPTER 117At first, Laura did not hear the phone ring. The noises the kids were making as she got them ready for school was so deafening that she could not hear her thoughts. Her mind was on the incident that had happened between Christian and Rian only a few hours before. It was an episode in her life that she certainly did not want it to repeat anytime soon. “Stop it,” she yelled at one of the kids who was for a reason that was known to only him, jumping on top of the bed instead of allowing her button up his school shirt. The little boy stopped for a moment, looked at her and then continued to jump on the bed. It was very obvious to her that the only thing he wanted right now was to frustrate the hell out of her. She sighed heavily and rubbed her forehead as she tried to calm herself down.Kids were little devils, she thought. Whoever called them innocent little angels must not have given birth to a kid ever. Unlessx her own kids were a special breed. If that was the case, she
CHAPTER 118Laura arrived at the hospital in a hurry as soon as she got the news about what happened to Christian and the accident. She tried to stop herself from panicking as she made her way into the waiting room. A lot of patients were around the room taking walks and smiling so she didn't want to startle them but at the same time, she couldn't hide the fear that was boldly written all over her body. Her hands were shaking badly as she bit her lower lip hard enough to draw blood. She grabbed a hold of the counter and then stared at the nurse who was attending to a young woman. "Hi, I got a call from this hospital a few minutes ago" She started and then the nurse held up a hand to stop her from talking."Madam you will have to wait till it's your turn," The nurse said without looking at Laura. "I have to wait? How?" Laura asked in anger but the nurse beckoned for her to look around the room at the people seated on the chair. Was she supposed to wait till every single person in t
