Who could have thought that the mighty King of the entertainment industry would come to her doorstep.Composing herself,she opened the door smiling at the visitor."How can I help you?" she politely asked. The two of them knew each other but not on a personal level. They had Once collaborated in a shoot but that's all." Good morning to you too, Miss Ava,I believe you know the reason I am here." not the one to beat around the bushes, Justin made his reason for visiting known."

Chapter 7: secure the whole house" At Least he's honest and doesn't deny it." Lucia grumbled.If it was up to her,she wouldn't allow their friend to go with such a man. A man whose reputation was soiled. The city Casanova. But she was aware that this was not about her, but about Miranda's safety. Despite her poor impression of the guy,she didn't have another choice. Lucia was no ignorant person, she understood clearly the intensity of their current predicament. She knew she had to swallow her judgemental words and focus on the greater good." I think we should get going,I guess you don't want the media and those crazy fans finding your location and storming here because trust me,it will be a traumatic experience." Justin said." I need to go to my apartment and take a few things from there." Miranda said, causing Justin to snap his head and look at her."

Rule number one, always keep a distance, even your closest friend could turn out to be the enemy." Miranda replied and walked away leaving behind a dumbfounded Justin. Why did she sound a lot like his late Master? Ignoring that absurd thought,he trailed behind her. Miranda walked straight to the door and tried to open it but realised it was locked.She turned to look at Justin silently asking him to open the door.Seeing her look at him,he decided to use this chance to get back at her. Instead of opening the door,he leaned on the door and cocked his brows at her, challenging her to beg him.Miranda, who was growing impatient waiting for the man to drop his childish acts and open the door finally realised that the man had no intention of opening the door.Retrieving a phone-like device from her bag,she connected a small wire-like string to the lock. After pressing repeatedly f

Now that she can't go to the office,she'll be forced to work from home and that includes attending meetings online. Weeks went by with Miranda still staying at Justin's villa. For some reason,the news about the CEO of Lambert group being seen kissing Justin kept getting more attention every day. people were discussing why would an independent woman like her get involved with a scandalous man like Justin, ofcourse Justin's fans would stand by and accuse Miranda of seducing their idol.Some people even started speculating that maybe she was ugly despite being rich, that's why she tried to create a scandal with Justin.

" You are right,no man can tolerate me." Miranda replied casually but Justin still heard the pain in her words.He was taken aback,it was the first time she did not utter arrogant words. He wondered what could be the story behind her pain.He has to figure it out."Am sorry,I didn't mean it." Justin swallowed his pride and apologised." It's okay,you don't need to be." Miranda replied, changing the channel to her favourite documentary station.Justin could only shake his head. Which lady in her mid twenties watches documentaries? Aren't they supposed to be watching romance movies?But he knew from experience that Miranda was no regular lady he was acquainted with. She was not a normal case.He decided to leave her alone and head upstairs,he was tired from shooting all day long.

Ronald then passed two contracts to Mr Adams. Looking at the contracts,one was written " the model" and the other" blue ocean entertainment." Not quite understanding why they were two he voiced his question. " Mr Ronald, why do I see two contracts? I thought it should be a single one?"Ronald who had been busy admiring the queen of his heart was irritated hearing the question. He wondered whether the CEO was ignorant or plain stupid." Different contracts for different parties. The agency has a different contract from the model's" He explained impatiently." Why should I have a different contract? I am signed under blue ocean so we only need to sign one." Ava complained but Ronald remained quiet. He just glanced at the CEO, his gaze was deep as if telling him to control his models.Mr Adams shivered in his seat. He could feel a thick cold sweat run down his back.

After the glaring contest ended, Justin helped Ezekiel to the house. They all sat on the couches and silence reigned in the house. No one said anything, nothing could be said either way." Now that we have found Ezekiel,I think we should leave the couple alone. I am sure they have a lot to say to each other." Miranda finally proposed and they all agreed.

Ezekiel thanked the doctor for keeping his health condition from Lucia but the doctor informed him that he did it for her. Seeing that she was pregnant and knew nothing about his condition,he decided to keep it a secret from her. He then urged him to break the news to her because according to his diagnosis,he barely had two months to live. Ezekiel assured him that he would definitely discuss the matter with Lucia and thanked him yet again before leaving to Join Lucia who was waiting for him in the waiting lobby." That took you a long time to just say thank you." Lucia commented. He had been gone for fifteen minutes which according to her was a long time for just a thank you." He was occupied and I had to wait for him." Ezekiel replied casually trying to keep a straight face. Lucia didn't probe further and dropped the topic.

The following morning, Ezekiel was the first to wake up. By the time Lucia woke up,she found Ezekiel ready with two packed suitcases." Good morning my Queen." Ezekiel greeted pecking her lips." Morning." Lucia replied, eyeing him then added," going somewhere?" She inquired. Yesterday,he didn't mention going anywhere. What was more surprising was the fact that one of the suitcases belonged to her." Yes,we are going somewhere." Ezekiel replied with a smile on his face. After last night,he figured out that before going to meet his maker,he might as well fulfil some of the wishes piled up. He had always wanted to tour the world with the woman he loved.

Lucia had this unsettling feeling that something was up with Ezekiel but she couldn't say what exactly. How did she know? His frequent out of mind moments. She had caught him staring at her with pity filled eyes. Sometimes,his expressions would spell sorry. She couldn't quite understand why he looked sorry towards her.Pushing those thoughts at the back of her mind,she decided to go prepare something for him to eat once he woke up. He had been the one taking care of her all these days so while he rested, she figured out she should return the favour. Another reason was because she had noticed that his body was declining and his appetite poor. These days,he hardly eats anything and would always say he's full. That was alarming according to LuciaShe cooked his favourite chicken rice and veggies. She didn't forget to prepare pumpkin soup which was known for increasing appetite.Evening came and Kiel had slept for six good hours, something that added more to Lucia's suspicion. Despite how
