CHAPTER 42
My eyes were glowing so bright while watching the foods in front of us. Farris cooked all of these and I can't believe I am going to eat them today!
"Aren't you going to eat?" He interrupted me from watching the foods. I glanced at him.
"I am!" I said and immediately scooped a rice to put on my plate while Farris pour a juice in my glass. I immediately took a bite of the steak with the rice and the taste of it immediately surrounded my taste bud. I immediately like the taste of it! It's really delicious!
I was chewing with all my heart when I noticed that Farris was looking at me. I glanced at him and my brows furrowed when I realized that he was waiting for something. I raised a brow.
"How does it taste?" He asked anticipating for my answer. Is it really need to comment something with his foods he made? I tilted my head and a smirk rose on my lips. His brows immediately furrowed at my reaction.
"It's okay," I said and shrugged my
CHAPTER 43"What do you mean we'll crash?" I asked a bit confused. Crash? He mean we'll enter the party even though we weren't invited?"Crash. The Trane's didn't give me an invitation," he chuckled and raised a brow at me."Of course they won't give you any! You're an enemy to them!" I said.He stood up and put the table napkin over the table. My eyes followed him."Let's go. You have to change your clothes," he said and left. I blinked twice as I stood up and follow him. Why is he so eager to crash this party? What is it that he wants to know? What is it that he wants to find?I was silently thinking the whole time we're on the ride. He said that we're going to a designer right now because we have to change our clothes in a more formal way.The designer immediately went busy to me the moment we entered their place. It seems like Farris is a very important person or customer to them that's why in just one call they are immediately we
CHAPTER 44At first I didn't get the gossipers had said. But while processing the words I just heard I can't help but to stare intently to Lauren Hill who was widely smiling in front while shaking hands to people which are maybe business partners of the Trane.Lauren Hill was flirting with two men at the same time? My heart pounded so fast as realization dawned on me. Is it possible that...Farris is the other man?I glanced at Farris and I saw him talking to Tyron so I went nearer to hear their conversation."They already knew I was here?" Farris asked like he was expecting it already."Yes. They wanted to talk to you," Tyron said. Farris chuckled with no humor. I can clearly see how pissed he was."And they have the audacity to invite me to talk to them huh?" Farris said grittily. I watched his face with dark aura surrounding it. I know that he has a fight with the Trane but is it possible that this fight were started to that Lauren Hill?
CHAPTER 45My chest felt heavy from all of these. I feel like something is twisting me while waiting for Farris to get done from talking Lauren. I feel like an outsider. I can't believe that he meant it. He meant it that he will be going to use me. This is why he needed me. He needed me that's why he helped me.I feel like a fucking trash. I feel like I am being played at in a game I couldn't even understand.I lifted up my eyes and looked at Augustus. He was also looking at me like he is trying to read my mind."Excuse me," I said and stood up. I want to leave already. My feelings are mixed and I don't know if I can still hold it."Miss Hepburn-""Just tell Farris that I left already," I cut him off and walked out. Tyron followed me."Ma'am!" Tyron called me. I gritted my teeth and tried to composed myself."I'm gonna leave now!" I spat and walked faster. Tyron didn't follow me anymore because I know he knows me. I will do eve
CHAPTER 46I saw him got stunned by my words. He stared at the paper I put over the table containing my resignation letter. He clenched his jaw before his eyes bore into me. My knees melted. I suddenly wanted to back down but I know I shouldn't be. I have to be brave right now. I tried to sinked in on my mind the fragements of memories where Lauren hugged him. I baled my fist as anger slowly rising again inside my system."Let's talk...in the office," he said darkly. I smirked but behind that smirk is my gritting teeth."It doesn't need the talk anymore, Farris. I already talked to my mom about it. My school will gonna start next week already and you know that my two months vacation here is already done," I said. He stared at me with those intense eyes again. Whenever he's looking at me like that...I just wanted to ran but I don't like to look like a coward in front of him so I won't ran from it."Do we have a problem Millijay?" He asked trying to read my
CHAPTER 47I didn't know how many times mom knocked my door that day. But I didn't open the door even once. I want to be alone. I tried so hard to stop my tears but now that I'm alone I can't help but to go all out and cry. I was not like this. Before, even though they pained me and hurt me I don't spend a single tear for them but right now...when it comes to Farris my strong heart become fragile.I feel like a coward. I feel like a loser. I was the one who was planning to play with Farris. To make him knelt in front of me and follow my biddings but it didn't happen. In the end...I was the one who got played, who got used and defeated.And I can't accept it. I cannot swallow it. I cannot admit it."Millijay! It's time for dinner! What are you doing inside your room and you don't even think about eating?!" Mom voice echoed outside my room. I rolled my eyes and wiped my tears. This damn old woman couldn't just leave me alone."Just deliver my food he
CHAPTER 48I stared at Farris face. Nothing has changed to him except for being more serious and arrogant. He is still handsome and manly. Nothing changed a bit and he seems not affected by my absence while me on the other hand are damn crying because of him."Farris?" I heard Lauren Hill called Farris but Farris was just staring at me with those dark eyes. My knees melted. He still has that affect on me and I can't believe that instead of hatred I felt...longing and nothing else."Why are you here?" Lauren Hill asked. I looked away and I saw Jonathan staring at me while Selena was smirking evilly at me. I can't help but to somehow guilty for it. I made her like that. I am the reason why she became like that. I sighed."Let's go Ben," I told to my bodyguard and walked out. I didn't even look back anymore. We stopped in front of my car and smiled sadly when I noticed that Farris didn't even follow me. I thought he was there for me. Then I was wrong. He was
CHAPTER 49WARNING: MATURE CONTENT!The information he just spilled on me are too much that I can't process it properly anymore. I swallowed hard. I lifted my hands that were holding his arms and put it down over my thighs.Is that why some are saying bad things to Lauren? It means...she was married to Farris when she cheated with Augustus?"W-Why...did you..divorced her?" I asked without glancing his way."She cheated on me," he simply said. I looked back again to him. His eyes are all on me. The attention that I was seeking for him are now all on me. But how can I feel good when I found out this truth about him?"And worst...she cheated with the man you hated?" I asked. He clenched his jaw. I wanna know the truth. The truth about his feelings. I stared at him. The more I got to know him...the more I am hurting. Is this the sign that I really fell for him?"I already told you all about me..." he sighed as he looked at me. I saw how h
CHAPTER 50I can't forget what happened just earlier. I can't believe we've done that thing inside his car. I know that I was too in lust over him but I didn't know that my rational mind would escape my system that time! What the hell Millijay? You missed him so much that you can't even stop yourself to kiss him back?The car stopped in front of the gate of our mansion. I am now fully clothed but until now I can still feel the hot liquid on my panties that we just shared earlier. The guards opened up the gate for Farris car when they saw it. I can't believe my mother. Now I know why Farris just suddenly entered my room before! It was because Farris has an open priviledge to just enter our house without my permission!"Is your mother home?" Farris asked when the car stopped in front of the mansion. I unlocked my seatbelt. I can't look at him. Every time I'll look at him I am afraid that I might remember everything we just did! This is so embarrassing!"She
EPILOGUE (The last part)"Damn! Where is she?" I said frustratingly as I search for Millijay. I opened the last door and saw the rope scattered into the ground. There's also a chair in the middle of the room. My heart beat louder."Millijay...was here," I slowly said. I roamed around my eyes in all the corners of the room."Let's go!" I shouted and run outside. Damn! Millijay is gone but I am sure that she was here! She was there in that room!"Is there a back door here?" I asked. Damn! I don't know why but why are my hands so cold?"I saw that door earlier," Tyron said and guided me towards that door. Without further ado I ran outside that door and tall trees and tall grass welcomed me. I gritted my teeth as I saw a drop of blood in one of the grass."It's Millijay's blood," I said grittily. Damn it! She escaped? Damn it! Darn it! Why is it so fucking messy? I know that she should've escape but...why does it have to be now? No
EPILOGUE (Part 3)FARRIS GABRIEL CARTERShe finally accepted me again. Hearing her words that she wants me too is like a heaven to me. It makes me feel at ease. It makes me at peace and having her in my arms is a resting place for me."When will you getting married Farris? You're not getting any younger," Dad told me one fine afternoon when I visit his office. I sat down on his chair and stared at my phone. I visit dad's office because Millijay went to her mother's office. I don't want to work alone in my office. It was like I am already used to have Millijay by my side while I am working."Tss..." I just snorted and closed my eyes. I am getting suspiscious with Millijay's actions nowadays. I know that she have problems with her mother but she doesn't want to talk it out with me. She always want to keep it to herself."I suggest you buy a ring already. Millijay is also in her age to marry..." dad tried again."
EPILOGUE (Part 2)FARRIS GABRIEL CARTERBeing on the top wasn't easy. You always have to be smart and looking wise for the others so they won't look down on you. It is lucky for me that I am the only heir of one of the huge companies in the country and even the world. I must say that I lived this life easily but to remain on that top wasn't easy. Dad must stay late at night so that he can work and managed the company. He always have to go business trip to strengthen the company and expand its wealth.Dad sacrificed everything to be on the top and for everyone to respect us. I grew up with the thinking that I will be like my dad someday because my future is already pre-determined. I will be the future Chairman of that company and will continue our empire and wealth until the next generation.That's why when I found Lauren Hill after I build my own name and own company I thought it is also my obligation as a man to marry someone even though
EPILOGUE (Part 1)FARRIS GABRIEL CARTERI gritted my teeth as I heard Millijay's mom crying on the other line giving me the news that Millijay is gone. I baled my fist as I stared at my office door. I was busy connecting with the police so that Jenny Martinez will be caught so I had to warn Millijay and her mother to stay in the house. I gritted my teeth."Damn it!" I hit the table in front of me. If something happened to Millijay I will fucking kill all the people who are involved with this."Sir...the police are already searching for her-""Give me the keys Tyron," I cut him off. My anger are over to the roof that I can flip this table in front of me any minute now."Here..." he put down the keys on the table so I stood up and got the keys. I will fucking find Millijay on my own. I can't just sit here and wait for the news! Damn it!"Sir...I just want you to know that there's someone is watching you through the snip
CHAPTER 80.2I opened my eyes and unfamiliar place filled my eyes. My vision was still blurry but I can feel my hands and foot tied together."You're now awake..." a familiar voice of a woman filled my ears. And when my vision get clearer I saw auntie with her elegant black dress while holding a cigarette on her finger."Where...am I?!" I shouted as hatred crawl my system. I'm gonna kill her! Damn her!"You're in a place that even the young Carter won't find you," she said with her usual evil voice. I gritted my teeth and glared at her. If a glare can kill her she probably dead by now!"Damn you! Let go of me!" I shouted and squirmed my body. She smirked."Not until your fiance handled me the money I asked of him," she said. My eyes widened. I blinked twice. So...Farris already knew that I was abducted?! Darn it!"You evil bitch! I'm gonna fucking kill you asshole-" I stopped when she pointed a gun towards me. I was stunned and shocke
CHAPTER 80.1My heart is beating loudly while I am inside of the taxi. I can't text Ben to fetch me anymore because I have to be fast. I am now going to our house hoping that mom was there. I can't let auntie ruin us.Jonathan Hill. I thought he was a good guy. I thought that he can be trusted. I didn't know that he will betray us like this. But...how did he knew my auntie? I didn't know. I just know that they are now accomplice. Maybe it's because of money. I sighed and turned off my phone for the meantime."Thank you!" I paid the driver and hurriedly walked towards the mansion. The security guards open the gate for me. I was breathing heavily when I entered the mansion. I checked the dining if mom was there but there's no one there. So I decided to go upstairs and checked her room but she also wasn't there. Damn! Where is she?"Ma'am? Are you searching for something?" A maid approached me. I sighed and nodded quickly."Is mom here? Did she come h
CHAPTER 79"It's good that you both decide to marry. We've been expecting the both of you to get married before this year ends?" Chairman Adamson started while the maids are preparing the foods for us. My eyes lifted to auntie and she was just serious the whole time."We didn't started to plan yet dad. We'll talk about it," Farris said and took a gaze on me. I am not mad with Farris but I am not in the mood to look at him. I felt betrayed in some ways. I don't want auntie here. She wasn't supposed to be here. She is not my family!"I hope it will be sooner..." Chairman Adamson chuckled lightly. I smiled at him to ease my tension. I don't want to make him feel that I am uncomfortable."Are you surprise that your mother and auntie is here? I contacted them after Farris told me that you both wanted a dinner with me and told me that you're both engage now. I hope you won't take it the wrong way?" Chairman Adamson said.So...Farris really didn't know a
CHAPTER 78Under the white sheets over the bed Farris was embracing me so tight while I can't keep my eyes from the ring on my finger. I can't believe I am wearing it right now. I can't believe that Farris is now going to marry me. Damn! I am so happy I could flip over this bed because of being grateful and happy!"You keep staring at your finger..." he told me. I chuckled and lifted my eyes on him."Because it has the ring you gave me. I still can't believe that I am your fiance now," I said happily. He chuckled and hugged me tighter. I stifled a smile and hugged him back. I am very sure of him. He is the only man I can trust with my whole life. He is the man I want to spend my whole life with. If he isn't the man then I wouldn't marry in this lifetime. It will always be him."Really? Then why didn't you answer me immediately? You looked unsure Millijay," his tone was suspicious. I laughed and pinched his cheek. He immediately glared at me and pulled dow
CHAPTER 77I tried so hard to act normal in front of Farris when we have our breakfast. I smiled and laughed normally with him but deep inside me I am fuming. I can't wait to face mom and talk to her."Farris..." I called him while he is in the middle of driving. We're on our way towards the Carter's but I have other plans for today."What is it?" He asked. I looked at him and saw his perfectly angled jaw."I want to visit mom. Can I? I'll go back this afternoon, I promise." I said. He looked at me but his eyes go back in front immediately because he's driving."Is there a problem?" He asked. I stopped and bit my lower lip. I can't believe that he can quickly sense if I have problems or not. Am I too obvious?"No. I just want to talk mom," I said. He stopped the car in the Hepburn's building. I waved at him goodbye before entering the hall. When the elevator opened in the right floor I saw Jonathan busy with his works. I walked towards him a
