Sana sighed as she scrolled through the images that Oliver had sent of his activities during the week, images she had deliberately ignored and it made her feel shitty because she knew her duty as his mistress was to take care of him and commend him when he did something right but the pain she'd felt being reminded that Oliver was going to eventually get bored and leave her made her resolve harden. Sana shoved her phone into her bag because staring at his image was doing nothing to take away the ache that had settled in her chest since the ex-girlfriend incident.Sana stepped into the elevator as she thought up ways to break off the contract before she got in too deep. The whole relationship had happened because she wanted to keep her job during the competition and now there wasn't even a competition holding her down anymore. So why did she find it so hard to let go of him? The elevator opened and she felt her heart rate increase as she stepped out of it and walked toward Oliver's off
Andria's Apartment.Andria took a deep breath as she stepped out of her closet, spreading her arms as she took in the awed reaction of her friends, all except for Sophia who was smiling at her phone.Bianca and Sana noticed it too and turned to face her and Sophia must have felt the pressure of their stare because she slowly dragged her face from her phone and flinched when she met the hard gazes of Bianca and Sana.Sophia laughed nervously, making a show of dropping the phone. "I won't pick this up anymore, I promise".Bianca rolled her eyes. "I give you one minute top".Sana laughed. "Make that half a minute"Andria cleared her throat and they turned to face her. Sophia gasped, her eyes widening."Wow, that is such a pretty dress. How come I've never seen you wear it".Andria smiled, her anxiety lessening. "Well there was never an occasion for me to wear it. I just really want to impress Jonathan's parents. I don't want them to hate me"."They'll be crazy to hate you. You truly love
'I know I said bring your boss/lover over for dinner but I met someone and we're going to be spending a week in Paris getting to know each other... I'm over the moon. I think he might ask me to marry him. So please Let's reschedule ok'. Sophia read the message for the hundredth time shaking her head."Oh my gosh, not this again, but at least she'll stop bothering me while her new flame is still burning hot."Her phone pinged and she read through the text that was sent by Bianca.'End of the month party at your house tonight. Don't complain, cause you have a lot of cash that you don't spend, and also this party is low-key to celebrate you and Lennox getting together, so set everything up."Is she serious or tripping, and using my relationship with Lennox, that is desperate much" she said but she was grinning, because she loved the idea. "I gotta make calls or else this party would be the most boring ever".******The party turned out pretty great, and Sophia walked around saying hi to
Jenny screamed as she shoved her vase collection off the countertop, the sound of it jarring in the quiet atmosphere.She fell onto the pieces, the sharp edges of it cutting into her skin and she could finally breathe again as the pain registered. She'd secretly met with Lennox's parents and they had already settled everyone, so why did it seem like their plan was going to shit all because of Sophia. "I will never lose to you Sophia's, not in this life and definitely not the next. You're mine Lennox, I won't lose you after everything I did just to make you mine" she screamed before pulling herself off the mess she'd made. Her knees felt wet and she looked down to stare at the dark red liquid escaping the cuts on her knees.Jenny trudged to the drink cabinet, pulled out a bottle of vodka, and drank straight from it. She choked, her throat raw from the burn as she forced herself to swallow. Jenny stared listlessly around the room. "Why won't you see me Lennox? first it was Melissa an
Sophia stared through the window at the people walking around the front of her house, her brows creasing as she tried to place them. Her neighborhood never had that much traffic, and people didn't just Invade other people's space just for the heck of it, especially since it was still too early, so who were they and why were they holding gadgets. The shrill sound of her phone had her jerking back in shock."I seriously need to change that ringtone, my God!" She muttered to herself as she picked up the phone and answered the call. "This better be important Bianca"."Oh, it's fucking important alright. I know y'all were keeping your relationship low profile but you both just got outed big time and the reporters are swarming everywhere.""What?!" Sophia sputtered, then looked closely at the people moving around In front of her house and what they were holding were definitely cameras.Sophia frowned, her brains firing in different directions. "Hello, are you still there. Sophia" Bianca s
Lennox watched as Sophia paced around In his Mansion after he'd explained everything that happened to her. He hated seeing her agitated and witnessing how she'd almost gotten hurt because of him made his heart squeeze. If he'd gotten there any later than he had... He didn't dare think of what might have happened because it made him see red. His parents were another problem and the threat his father had made kept messing with his head every time he glanced at Sophia. Would it be better if he just... He groaned in pain, hating the very thought of letting Sophia go. He couldn't do it. No matter what happened, he needed to fight, fight for her even if it cost him his life.Soft hands grazed his cheek and he flinched, his gaze refocusing on the present and the breathtaking woman who stood in front of him."I'm here Lennox, so you should stop worrying. Everything is going to be alright. I mean once I work my charms on your parents, they'll be on your throat to marry me" she joked, attemp
"I saw the news just now and I'm just going to tell you not to read the nasty stuff they're writing, cause those people are just a bunch of crazy, jealous low life nobodies who are angry that you got such a hot guy like that when they couldn't," Vivienne said and Sophia laughed, smacking her hands against her face."That is like a lot of insult Mom, and I'm so happy that it's because of me.""Of course! You're my girl. If I was there, I'd have sued every one of them for defamation of character." She told, her gaze serious. "I'm sure you would have, that is if you didn't stab them in their faces first"."I've always had a very nasty temper" she agreed laughing then her gaze softened. "Are you alright dear. I know Lennox is handling everything but are you doing ok".Sophia nodded quickly. "More than ok. I'm really happy"."And that's all that matters. I'd have rushed down immediately this madness started but there's been some problem at the airport"."Mom you don't need to come... Just
Markus pulled Lennox out of the car, grimacing when he saw that he'd hurt him more than he'd intended. Jenny rushed to his side, her skin sickly pale as she stared at Lennox."Oh my gosh, you fucking killed him" she cried as she tried to get a reading on his pulse."He's not dead, he's just unconscious right now and I'll take care of it if you stop fussing over him for just a second" Markus gritted, hating that Jenny was interfering with his job. Jenny glared at him, the veins on her neck bulging in her anger. "Don't fucking tell me what to do. The plan was to kill her and not Lennox"."Will you shut your fucking yapping! The paparazzi could be here any minute so get your behind moving" he shouted and Jenny flinched as he pulled her away from Lennox. "Now go and make sure that the girl is still breathing".Jenny glared at him but did as she was told then frowned when she noticed that Sophia was still breathing, even tho the blood that was streaming down her face almost made her conc
