Lincoln was just staring ahead,acting as if he was oblivious of the girl who was glaring at him.
"Get off my thighs!" Came a cold sentence from Lincoln and West immediately straightened her back and said "What was that tout you just pulled??" This time,Lincoln turn to look at her and asked instead "What are you doing out here by this time?? I thought I texted you to come meet me?? You ran off” West suddenly felt embarrassed as she turn to the side to look at her bags in the floor from where she was standing previously. "Kinda.." West muttered and Lincoln smirked and then,silence reigned for a while. "Okay then,I have to get going!" West said and turn to walk away when a voice called from the back "And where do you have in mind??" West turn to look at him with raised brows and Lincoln scoffed coldly " I don't care about you one bit so don't get funny ideas" West shook her head "and I wasn't thinking about that! It's just that....on a closer look and the darkness resting on your face,you seems a bit familiar " "Yeah and that’s because we got wedded this morning!" Lincoln said as he relaxed his back on the chair but his eyes had already sank, hoping west doesn't utter one more word. West gazed at him more "I know that but it seems as if I've seen you before now!" Lincoln frown as he tried to change the topic "Hop into the car and let's get going! It's close to mid night already!" He said with lot of irritation laced in his tone. "Where are we heading to??" West asked skeptically as she sized him up. Lincoln threw her a fierce look "you're beginning to irritate me already,just get inside the car!!" West pouted her lips and sat on the back seat of the car when Lincoln adjusted to the other side of the chair. The driver went to get her bags that was on the floor. West was sitting stiffly on the chair without moving,just staring at the man and the outside view from time to time. She was wondering where she had seen him before but she just couldn't place it so she just shrugged off the thoughts. ' maybe I'm just been Paranoid' West thought as she let out a deep breath from her mouth. She was trying to relax her troubled mind when a voice rang out in the car. "mouth-breathing habit exhibited a significant increase in lower incisor proclination, lip incompetency and convex facial profile. That's a bad habit to cultivate, West" West furrowed her brows, what's that for?? Can't she let out a sigh anymore??. But his tone made west think hard but she still couldn’t get where she had heard his tone before. Earlier at the bereau,she didn't take notice of this tone and face but now,she was suspecting him already! "Tell me... where are we heading to??" West tried to change the topic and asked as she was already starting to worry. "Home " came the short reply and west swallowed hard as she gazed at him again,he gave her a foreboding feeling and makes her want to quickly run away. ‘Home’ West mused. Of course she is married to a man she doesn’t know,she has a new home now. One that she didn’t build with Shawn. West’s throat constricted by the events of today. Looking at her whirlwind husband,she began to doubt if she made the right decision by getting married to such a man but on the thoughts of Shawn Gabs,she immediately made a tight fist as her expression turn frozen. ‘All for revenge’ she reminded herself. The man who was resting his head on the chair felt the chilling air emitting from her and he rose his head and turn to look at her. His face that was well contoured was filled with a frown,his eyes deep as he stared at her hard,his mind wandered to different directions before his eyes suddenly turn black as a calm before the storm smile emerge on his lips. He rested his head again and said slowly "You don't have to be so bothered about your Ex husband!" "I'm not bothered and he's nothing to me now!" West retorted with pouted lips and Lincoln didn't utter a word and just let silence reign over the car. West sighed as she relaxed as well and just enjoyed the ride to whatever place they were going to. It didn't take too long when the car seems to slow down a bit and drove into a street that was filled with street lamps and west frown as she raised from her seat and gazed outside and she let out a gasp when she saw the big Billboard At the front. That was the biggest Bill Board in the whole of The city in Madrid. The bill board was situated in the most reserved area that was exclusive to the public as houses were hard to purchase there. Every residents must have a pocket tearing Cool cash to have an access to the houses there. The car sped off along the well tiled road as they pass the bill board that was displaying an interview of the Harvey's group Year's profit and the shareholders net profit and their market structures. Wait Harvey... West widen her eyes as something clicked,his name was Lincoln Harvey right?? That means...... ' he was the rumored Gay from the Harvey Family ' West thought as she gasped and when Lincoln turn to look at her,she used both hands to cover her mouth. She was staring at him with wide eyes, She must have been thinking a lot to think that he cared about her,he is not into women. She only heard about the ' Famous beautiful Gay from the Harvey family' from her colleague but she didn't bother to know the person's name because she wasn't interested. That was a good thing because he can never do anything with her and won't bother trying to do funny stuffs to her. He was gay and not straight. West swallowed hard and gave him a side look,looking at his straight face with her side eyes so he wouldn't catch her staring at him. West doesn't care about a person's sexual orientation or judge them but she was abit shocked and surprised that such a fine man wasn't into women. But then again. West thought 'what was he doing in front of the bereau that day??' West subconsciously nodded her head ' He must want to get married to his Boyfriend that day but what happened?? Why didn't his boyfriend show up?? Did he back out or was he too scared to Get married to Lincoln because of his social status?’ West sighed and this time Lincoln didn't bother to look at her as he had already accepted the fact that he got married to a lunatic. ' So unfortunate of me! Married to a Crazy Woman' Lincoln thought with a sad smile. Meanwhile West thought... ' So bad! He's Gay! '"Just sign the papers West and let's get this done and over with" Emotionless and cruel, Shawn's words rolled out of his tongue as he stared at West.West staggered a bit backward as she stared incredulously at the man she loved, a man who promised her heaven on earth...What changed??Her thoughts were blank as her eyes fell on the paper on the table, the words inscribed on it glared hard at her as her blurry eyes saw the bold letters on the top of the paper.Divorce!"Shawn..." West's voice betrayed her as it trailed off, her eyes met his cold ones, no ounce of remorse on his face as he stared at her like he was staring at a bag filled with trash.West shook her head as the realization dawned on her "Shawn it's been barely two hours since we got married in front of our respective families..." Her tears choked her up as her eyes wandered off to the people behind Shawn.Shawn snorted before he fixed his tie, this only proved that they were still in the wedding venue, West held her gow
A Cold snort followed her statement, Her stepmother's voice soon came "You have nothing to do since you have already lost everything! Just accept your fate West, you are nothing without the East family behind you"West snapped "And when have the east family been behind me?? Father didn't allow me to work in the family's company, I was never recognized as a daughter of this family and now, you all ruined my little happiness""How shameless, Shawn belongs to my daughter, that is someone else's man you're talking about and not yours! how ridiculous can you get West?? " West blinked back her tears, she couldn't refute that when her father had set her and Shawn up for a date the first time, she was happy she finally got to be with a rich and handsome family heir, it was love at first sight for her because she always wanted to be an obedient daughter and she told herself to love everything her father loves only to make him impressed with her and maybe consider her and recognize her as his
"It's Tomorrow Lincoln, do you have a bride yet?" Hearing those words from the other side of the phone, Lincoln Harvey scowled at his father who acted as if he cared."Very soon" his monotone voice came out, his icy cold eyes looked around as he turned to face the bureau, he'll just do this very quick and get out of here.His father, Conan gushed out "Very Good then, just know what's at stake if you fail" with that, the call ended and Lincoln scoffed, feeling very ridiculous that he later found himself in such a pathetic situation, his mood dampened.Lincoln Harvey turned towards the other three men who were present.Two were a bit far off as they were his bodyguards, their eyes scanning everywhere.The other man close to the car had his head down as he gripped his phone tightly, afraid of meeting the cold eyes of the man approaching."She backed out??" The already angry Lincoln asked a bit as he walked towards the car and stood there with both hands inside his pocket.The man who se
Walking out of the bureau, West's heavy heart tightened as her eyes wandered around, she could feel the stares from people, who wouldn't stop to look at a disheveled bride.It was as if she went to steal the wedding dress, her makeup makes her look like a thief that was beaten.Her eyes wandered around for a while before they landed on the car, a crazy smile formed on her lips as she immediately matched towards it, her expression was unreadable.She saw some men who looked like bodyguards near the car, but she didn't care as she walked towards the side of the road, her eyes brightened when She saw the concrete stone close by.Without any delay or hesitation, she took the guards off guard when she grabbed the stone and threw it directly at the car.The alarm went off and the men immediately became alerted while West stood at the side, her eyes followed the movement of the men who gasped in shock when they saw how the back glass was broken to the ground, leaving a huge hole.West smiled
"What is your name by the way?" West suddenly asked as she turn to face the man who was standing tall close to her.His eyes swept towards her,sucking her whole and she felt lost for a while but he replied nevertheless as he turn to face the other side "Lincoln Harvey" West nodded a bit,not recognizing anyone with the name but a smile formed on Lincoln's lip as he gazed deeply at the lady.After a brief moment of silence,West turn to him "I'll give you a call later,for now,I have something to take care of, dear husband" She stretched the last line with a chuckle and Lincoln nodded at her.Without saying another word,she walked out of the bureau as she headed straight to her home where she had grown all along,it was time to get a clearance from her father and shove some truths to their faces.With a stiff back,West boarded a cab back home,her heart drumming in her rib cage,not knowing if she was strong enough to face her lying husband and her industrious sister who just got engaged by
West hissed,totally annoyed as she grumbled out of the house,she didn’t want to speak with anybody now.It was about 8Pm already as she walked along the tiled road with her sneakers that has worn out.She only had few clothes so it must be really easy for the maids to pack her stuffs in just two small bags.Even if she was the daughter of the executive officer of east groups,she doesn't look like the daughter of a rich man.When Erica was given allowances,she had to work in LH Culinary To make a living for herself and buy herself all necessities for her everyday life.Shawn just only bought her this white sneakers she was currently wearing on her birthday,that was the only gift she got from him.She still felt weak from all the things that took place,in just one day,her world crumpled,she lost the man she had loved for two years and she was disowned by her father.She was hurt both emotionally and psychologically.She really loved Shawn and somewhere in her heart still calls for him n
