As Darren watched Charlotte walk away, he was satisfied. Right now, he had mixed feelings. At first, Darren thought he would never get back together again, but he didn’t expect that a turning point in their broken relationship would show itself.The scene of the passionate night they spent together flashed through his mind and put a smile on his face. His heart filled with warmth and satisfaction. He was sure that Charlotte still loved him otherwise she wouldn’t have taken the initiative to kiss him.‘It’s a pity I couldn’t do whatever I wanted to her when she sobered up. If that weren’t the case, I would have kissed her as much as I wanted to make up for the lost time. Soon, he got dressed and walked out of the room. He no longer felt depressed.Once he was at shore, a figure came rushing towards him.“Darren, I finally found you! You are here!”It was Raina. She was wearing ragged clothing, looking as disheveled as a drowned rat.“Raina? What are you doing here?” Darren asked, visib
“Darren, where did you go last night? Why didn’t you come home?” Lillian asked the second Darren got back to the Venzor mansion.“I was with Charlotte lats night. You know, I really think that we all be getting back together soon,” Darren answered. Just thinking about Charlotte made his heart melt.“Daddy, are you serious?” Aaron asked as he threw himself into Darren’s arms.Darren gently ruffled his hair and replied, “Of course, son! Daddy will get Mummy back sometime soon.”“Daddy you are the best! You can do it! I believe you!” Aaron exclaimed.“Aaron, would you like to stay with your mom for few days?” Darren asked.However, to his surprise, Aaron shook his head and said, “No. I want to live with you and Mom together. Dad, work harder to get her back as soon as possible!”Darren resisted the urge to laugh at how mature he was acting and asked, “Did your great-grandma teach you to say that?”“Nope! Those are my own words. Daddy, you can be such a dumdum sometimes. If I don’t help y
Olivia sat on the sofa, watching the clock tick. Up until Charlotte’s birthday party last night until now, Edward hadn’t shown up in front of her, nor he had called her. Just as she picked up the goblet on the table and was about to drink, the door flung open with a bang.She was taken by surprise. Then Edward approached her and took the glass from her hand. He then threw it on the ground at it shattered into pieces. Panicking, Olivia covered her mouth to stop herself from screaming. ‘Who could have infuriated Edward? Could it be Charlotte?’ She thought and just the mere thought of the possibility left her ecstatic.She immediately held Edward’s to comfort her. “Edward, whats the matter? Don’t be so mad. Would you like to have something to drink?”However, looking at Edward’s intense gaze, Olivia was so scared she was scared to utter a word.“Eek!” Then, Edward pulled her to the sofa and pinned her down. Soon, he tore off her clothes.“Edward, it’s me. What’s the matter with you?” Oli
Kenny and Darren were heading to Malibu Beach. While Darren was watching her from a distance, Darren saw Raina get out of the car with her phone in her hand. She seemed to be on a call with someone and was fuming with anger.It seemed that she was in an argument with the person on the other end of the line. Then, all of a sudden, she threw her phone on the ground.At this moment, sirens blared from a distance. Hearing the siren, Raina’s face turned pale. And without wasting any second, she got into her car and sped away.“Follow her. Don’t let her get away,” Darren ordered.Kenny nodded and followed his order.About thirty minutes later, Darren felt a sinking feeling in the pit of her stomach upon realizing something. Raina seemed to be on the way to Venzor's mansion.Seeing this Darren’s heart sank and he called Lillian and Charlotte right away. However, both of them didn’t answer the phone.A wave of panic washed over him. Then, he thought of something and called Dora and thankfully
Darren was wheeled into the emergency room at once. With a heavy heart, Charlotte watched the door of the emergency room close. Silently, she prayed for Darren’s safety. ‘Darren, you have to survive this. I still have lot of things to say to you. What I’m supposed to do if you die?’At a long loss, the Venzor family arrived. Apprehension was written all over their faces.“How is Darren doing? How did the car accident even happen?” Lillian asked as she held her arms as tears ran down her face.“Raina suddenly came out of nowhere and tried to run me and my kids over. Luckily, Darren pushed us away, but he…” Charlotte couldn’t finish her explanation, and she felt sorry for what happened to Darren. She should be the one lying inside the operating room. Right now, she felt her heart felt like was being jabbed with thousands of sharp thorns, causing her an insurmountable amount of pain. She had to bite her lips to hold back her tears.“Raina again? Why is she doing this to us? All we have e
“Samantha it’s so late, why are you still working?” Charlotte asked as she walked in.“Many of my patient usually come at night.” Samantha tried her best to maintain her smile, despite how much she ached to slap her across the face.“Darren got hit by a car to save me. He just got out of the operating room.” Charlotte said as tears began to flow from her eyes.“What happened to him?” How did the car accident even happen?” Samantha asked, pretending as though she knew nothing.“Raina was intend to hit me, but Darren pushed me away out of the way and took it for me. When I saw him lying on the ground in his own pool of blood, I almost broke down.” Charlotte lowered her head as tears ran down her cheeks.After listening to her stories, Samantha’s heart broke. Even though she didn’t see how it went down with her own eyes, it still hurt to think that the man she loved went through that. It made her wonder if Darren truly loved Charlotte so much that he is even willing to sacrifice his life
After leaving the clinic, Charlotte started the car and left. While driving she thought of her conversation with Samantha just now. “What on earth is Darren hiding from me? Is it treating me so well just to trick me into getting back together with him?”As she was lost in thought, suddenly the car swerved. Thereafter, a pungent smell of gasoline wafted into her nose. Charlotte’s heart almost leaped to her throat. She wanted to stop the car to check what happened, but she soon found that the brakes were not working.‘What the hell?’ Charlotte muttered, flooring the brakes again. ‘Damn it! Something happened to the brakes!’Charlotte grabbed the steering wheel with both hands, attempting to control the car. There was a car behind her, honking at her like a lunatic.“What I’m going to do?” Charlotte tried to suppress her fear, carefully avoiding the car in front of her.Just then her phone rang. In a fit of panic, Charlotte answered the call, “Help, something happened to the car., I am i
Darren’s felt his head was spinning, and he couldn’t think straight. All his memories with Charlotte flashed through his mind like a movie reel, especially those when she was still Areiza. They used to kiss, and make love, and they once promised to be with each other for the rest of their lives.Her beautiful loving smile was like a warm sun amidst winter. She was a ray of sunshine that brought light and warmth to his life.Darren stood there, watching all of their memories together with the obsession of an onlooker. His heart was beating fast. ‘What happened after this? How did Charlotte and I end up like this?’ He thought.Suddenly, a sharp pain came from his head and the fragments of his memory poured into his mind. It felt like his head was splitting, and he had to hold it just to alleviate some of the pain.Suddenly, Darren felt a lump in his throat and tears burst forth from his eyes like a broken dam. He finally remembered what had happened.That bitch Hallie almost killed his
Darren carried Charlotte to the suite upstairs of the hotel near the church, where the reception was held. Inside, he placed Charlotte on the bed while he sat on the edge of the bed and said, “When are you planning to open your eyes?”Charlotte kept her eyes closed and held her breath nervously, not daring to open her eyes.“Well, it’s good things you that you don’t want to wake up!”Before Charlotte could even begin to understand what he meant, she felt his warm breath seep into the skin on her face. Charlotte opened her eyes and met Darren’s deep-set smiling gaze. His face was inches away from her and he was about to kiss her. Fortunately, he stopped the second she opened her eyes.Seeing his smile made Charlotte excited. “You know that I just pretending?”Darren didn’t answer the questions. “Were you aware that I was outside at the time?”Charlotte couldn’t respond to his query, so she just looked at him blankly. She had won the bet. At first, Charlotte just hoped that Stella could
Today was Peter and Anna’s wedding day.Darren came to the villa early in the morning to pick up Charlotte. However, Charlotte didn’t want to show up with him in the same place.“Charlotte, if you don’t want to see news about us breaking up tomorrow morning, then you had better come with me.”Even if their relationship was on the verge of breaking right now, the truth remained that the public still saw them as a loving couple. Though Charlotte was uncomfortable about the idea, she had no choice but to go to the party with Darren.When they entered the banquet hall, Darren wrapped his arm around her waist and pressed her body against her.The fabric of Charlotte's dress was thin, so when his palm landed on her waist, Charlotte’s body temperature rose and she felt her blood coursing through her veins.All the other guests at the wedding looked at them with envy. Teasing and sighing at how sweet they were.Charlotte was so embarrassed that she turned to him and said, “Let me go, will you
Peter was right behind the door when he saw Stella badgering Darren. He watched as Darren pushed her away and ran after Charlotte.Stella fell to the ground, but she got up held onto Darren’s lap, and continued begging regardless of how humiliating her act was.“Darren, where are you going? Don’t go! Please.”“Let me go,” Darren growled. In an act of desperation, Stella shook her head, held on to him, and refused to let go. She was no longer the proud woman she once was.“Darren, I’m begging you. Just give me a chance to be with you!”Finally losing his patience, Darren pushed her away from him and stopped her before she could latch him again.“Stella, you have no idea why I’m letting you show your face to me. It’s not because you are my friend, nor it’s because I want to keep some sort of connection to you.”“Then why?” Stella asked with tears in her eyes.Peter didn’t hear what Darren said in the end. He saw how despair consumed Stella and it showed on her face. She fell on her knee
“Its fine. Rose and I share a birthday. Charlotte is a good friend with her, so I’m sure she will be willing to celebrate her birthday.” Stella said firmly.At that moment, Dora crap out by Stella so well-informed. ‘And she is so adamant on getting her hands on Darren.’The more Dora thought about it, the more she sensed something was amiss.As soon as Dora got home, she told Charlotte everything that Stella asked her to do.Charlotte pondered for a moment and said, “You should ask him directly. He can make decisions on his own.”“Aren’t you worried that rumors would circulate if he attended her birthday party?”“He probably won’t go,” Charlotte replied after some consideration.Dora nodded in agreement.The next morning, Dora asked Darren for his opinion. He just looked at her, and asked, “What did Charlotte say?”“She said that it’s up to you,” Dora answered.“Up to me?” Darren frowned in confusion.“Yes, but she also said that he probably won’t go,” Dora added.“Is that so? I will
“But I can’t stand it anymore, baby! Just let me fuck you, okay?” Darren lifted her chin with his finger and begins sucking on the tip of her tongue.Everything he did felt so good that Charlotte eventually gave in. He began caressing her tits, rubbing her nipples, and then pulling them. Soon, Darren loosened his grip on them. Charlotte’s breasts jiggled and bounced after he let them go.“Ugh,” A moan escaped Charlotte’s mouth, completely arousing Darren. He pressed his body against Charlotte. Thereafter, Charlotte felt he is huge manhood rubbing against her vagina. As Darren kept moving, Charlotte's desire grew, and she could no longer think of anything else.“Charlotte, can I?” Darren pressed his manhood against her, making her wetter by the second.“Darren, I want It. Give it to me.” Charlotte had no strength to hold back his neck. She wanted to grab something, but all she could do was to randomly wave her hands in the air.“What do you want me to give you baby? Tell me.” Darren be
After the meal, Darren touched Charlotte's forehead to check her temperature again and pulled her out of the Starlight restaurant.“Come with me to my office.”“But I wanna go home and rest,” Charlotte complained.“Well, you can sleep inside my office, too. Come on!” Darren put his hand on her shoulder and gently pushed her to his car.When Charlotte got into the car, she was about to fasten her seat belt, but then Darren leaned into it and fastened it for her. The tenderness in his eyes made Charlotte blush.Darren then cupped her cheeks, smiled at her, and leaned closer to her face. “Kiss me!” he said.“Huh?”Just before Charlotte could gather her composure, he lifted her chin and kissed her lips. Charlotte held her breath nervously too anxious to make any noise.It was already lunchtime, so many people were coming and going outside the place. Their car park was visible to many people. Passerby could easily spot them if they would look at them.Charlotte didn’t want other people wat
Because of how he reacted, the doctor felt tense and uncertain about what to do.Charlotte's face palmed and said to the doctor, “Honestly, I am feeling alright already. I’m sure I will get better after taking the antipyretic injections. Thank you, doctor!”The doctor nodded with a smile and left the room.Once he was gone, Darren sat back in his chair and directed his attention back to Charlotte. “You really can’t take your eyes off a handsome man when you see one, can you?”“What are you talking about? I was not looking at him.”He was so angry that he was practically snarling at Charlotte. “Are you not attracted to me anymore, Charlotte?”The look of jealousy and frustration on his face was amusing. He looks so childish!Once Charlotte's infusion was done, Darren held her out of the hospital while holding her wrist. By the time they reached the gate, their fingers were already interlocked. Charlotte’s heart felt a sense of comfort and warmth as she held his hand with him.After the
For a long time, Anna I stood frozen on the spot with her hand hovering above the door.Eventually, she dropped her hand with a sigh. She found a corner by the porch and curled up in it to cry her eyes out. the crowd.After a long time, Charlotte came back and was surprised to see her at the door. “Anna?”Anna looked up at her, her cheeks red with embarrassment. It was indeed abrupt for him to come here, but she had nowhere else to go. “Charlotte, can you take me in for one night?” She wiped the tears on her face and asked brazenly.Charlotte gaped at her for a few seconds before walking up to her. She held her hand and took it. “Come in!” Charlotte said.Charlotte asked the maid to cook some soup and bought it for her.Seeing the steaming hot soup in front of her, Anna felt the warmth and acceptance of the family, which was also something she earned for most. Anna picked up the bowl and felt a lump in her throat.Charlotte’s three kids sat opposite and looked at Anna curiously. Anna
Stella called Peter out of the blue and asked him to come to the bar where she was and keep her company.During her drunken speech, she broke into sobs several times.When Peter hung up the phone, he hesitated for a while but eventually decided to drive to the bar.Judging by Stella’s near-incoherent speech, she was very drunk. Not only that, she was a drunk woman in a bar alone. The number of things that could happen was too high for Peter to even contemplate.When Peter got there, he saw many empty bottles on her table. Stella was in the process of pouring more wine when Peter walked up to her and confiscated the bottle.“You have enough to drink!”With tears streaming down her face, Stella turned to look at him in disappointment. “Why are you here?”“Who else could it be if it were not for me?” Peter asked him confused.“I don’t want you. I want Darren.” And all of a sudden, Stella grabbed his shirt and looked up at him with hatred and determination.Her reaction pissed Peter off a
