One Million Reais Chapter 30
Louisa's p.o.v;At college, Ryder, "What do you want to talk to me about?" "Did you beat Lucas?" "Yeah." I thought he would refuse but he agreed. "Why did you beat him?""I'm a bully. I beat a lot of boys. I don't need a reason to beat anyone. Is that why you called me? Then, I'm leaving.""Did you hear us in the cafeteria?" "I have to go somewhere." I held his hand and said, "Thank you." He removed my hand and asked while smiling, "Where did you learn to thank people? Is this really the Louisa I know?" "I'm leaving.""Hold on. Where are you leaving already? I have a question to ask you. Who's the other guy in the picture?""I'm afraid I can't answer that." "Why? Is he your boyfriend?" While I was figuring out what to answer, I got a call. I asked for an excuse and walked away from him. Who called me now? When I looked at the display, I saw my mother's name on the display. I ended the call and said to Ryder, "I have to hurry up." "Thank you again." And walked away from him.

Louisa's p.o.v;I was looking at Ace who was sleeping on the bed beside me and the one who looked cute when he's drunk. This is the first time I'm seeing him getting drunk. I saw him drinking before but never saw him getting wasted. He apologised a lot of times in one night. I don't know if I could forgive but I'm sure I can't forget it. I turned off the lights and laid beside him, facing him. "Did you know that I got worried when you didn't show up? I must be insane, right? To be worried about class one mafia. I wonder who you are underneath all of this. I'm getting confused about who's the real one sometimes. Is it the one who's outside the room, murdering almost everyone or the one who's beside me, being nice and warm. Whoever you are, Please, don't make it difficult for me." I closed my eyes and fell asleep. The next morning, I woke up to the noises from the kitchen. I got out of the bed and walked straight to the kitchen and asked Ace, who was doing something on the stove, "W

Louisa's p.o.v;After the party, I went to my place. I changed my clothes and took a look at the recipe I got from Lily. After looking at the recipe, I decided to bake the cake so that it'll rest for a day. I placed the ingredients I needed for the batter and for the frosting on the kitchen table. First, I started with the process of burnt honey. It is not literally burning but caramelising the honey. I took a saucepan, poured honey and turned the flame to medium and stirred it continuously. Lily told me to cook the honey for eight to ten minutes so let's do it like she said. After ten minutes, the honey turned caramel in colour so I turned off the flame and added a few drops of cold water to stop it from cooking further. I set aside the burnt honey to cool down and took another saucepan to heat butter, sugar, burnt honey and regular honey altogether. After five minutes, I added baking soda and started whisking it until the colour changed while giving tiny bubbles. After it cooled

Louisa's p.o.v;The next morning,I woke up to the alarm sound, which felt like it was ringing inside my head. Didn't I turn it off last night? I took my phone and turned it off. When I tried to lay down again, I saw the empty space beside me. Ace wasn't there like he said last night. He left before I woke up. I let out a sigh and stared at the ceiling. Finally, my mother's words came true again. I can't keep anyone beside me, somehow they'll leave either it'll be me or their wish. This time, it is by both of them. I got up from the bed and walked out of my room to get some water. When I opened the fridge, I saw the cake I made for Ace. Shit! I totally forgot that I baked a cake for him. What should I do now? If I take this cake to him, what will he think of me? I feel bad about myself. At Least i shouldn't be mad at him yesterday. What can I do if he orders me around? I blamed the cake, "Your boss is so bad. Because of him, you're going to go to someone else." My phone rang. When

Louisa's p.o.v;After finishing my work in the cafe, I went to my apartment. I looked around for Ace forgetting what happened yesterday. When it hit, I felt confused about myself. Why did I search for him in the first place? Wasn't I just a fling for him? Let's stop thinking about him.When I dropped on the couch, I remembered the cake I made for Ace. How did I forget it? What am I going to do with the cake now? Back in the cafe, when Ryan and Lily asked for the cake, I said that I hadn't started preparing yet. I can't believe I lied shamelessly for a cake. Urggh!I opened the refrigerator, took the cake out and walked out of the apartment, closing the door behind. After some hours, I stood in front of Ace's house. I must be really crazy to come here. I ringed and waited outside the house. Someone opened the door and asked for my identity. While I was explaining, Mateo saw me and asked, "Louisa, what are you doing here?" He told the guy who opened the door to leave and asked me to c

Louisa's p.o.v;After a week, Today's the graduation day for Danielle, not only her but I was also waiting for this day to come. I decided that today's my last try for the red stone. If I can't get any leads, I'm dropping this search and going to put an end to it. Danielle, "Hey Lou!" She gave me a hug and said, "Thank you for showing up early. But I have yet to get my certificate from the principal inside the college and the ceremony will take place here in the open space. If you don't mind, can you please wait here with others?""Yeah, no problem. I'll wait.""Thank you again, Louisa. My friends are waiting inside. I'll get back to them. See ya at the ceremony." She walked into the building.I took a seat in the open space area she mentioned. It was literally an open stage for the students to celebrate their graduation. I looked around and saw parents, siblings, friends gathered here for their sons and daughters on their graduation ceremony. When I looked at them, I thought, 'I'm

Louisa's p.o.v;I woke up to the alarm which I forgot to turn off again. After turning it off, I got out of the bed and walked to the kitchen since I felt hungry as I woke up. When I opened the refrigerator, it was empty. Did I forget to buy groceries again? It's difficult to get used to living alone after having a roommate around. After a shower, I must hit a convenience store otherwise I have to go to nearby food stalls again. I took the egg out of the refrigerator and made Scrambled eggs out of it. After having scrambled eggs for breakfast, I took a shower and walked out of the apartment to go to a convenience store. After a while, I arrived at the convenience store. I looked for bread, eggs, butter and cheese which is the easiest breakfast to prepare in the morning once I wake up. Once I got everything, I walked around to look for instant noodles. Since I'm going to stay at my apartment during the holidays, should I look for another part time job? If I wanted to go, what kind o

Louisa's p.o.v;After a week, At hospital, in front of Bernie's room,"Did you get that driver now?" I asked Raphael about the person who ran away after the accident. Raphael answered, "Like i already said, the driver's face wasn't registered in the surveillance camera in that street. Moreover there wasn't any camera where the accident occurred. The car number is also fake. I couldn't get any information about this case."I got mad after hearing him say, "The driver couldn't be traced. The car plate number is fake. Are you saying that he fell down from the sky…" i stopped shouting at him and realised that it could be Pandora gang. They already sent someone to spy on me. And they hurt Antonio when he tried to keep an eye on Bernie. This could definitely be them. I continued to Raphael, "Find him soon, Raphael." And walked into Bernie's room. Everly was feeding him the food using a spoon while Bernie was whining to her. After seeing me, Bernie complained to me, "Louisa, i said my ha

Raphael and Elisa went to make calls to the cops who weren't in the police station while Eduardo and I got lectures from him. After a lecture, The chief said to Eduardo, "Call someone to clean up this mess."After Eduardo left, he turned towards me and said, "I heard about the casino issue. Don't make another mistake or it'll be the reason for your suspension.""I'm sorry for my actions, Sir. it won't happen again."After some time, everyone came back except for one person, Gabriel since he was out of town to meet his parents.

One Million Reais Chapter 53
Louisa's p.o.v;I came to investigate a missing person named Levi Ackerman. He is from this town, but doesn’t live there as he does in the city and was last spotted here near where his house should be. The police had found him two days ago when a neighbour reported seeing him on a road at night. We were alerted about his disappearance due to the fact that the victim' father has been having an affair with one of the women. It was discovered that she had been murdered shortly after by a man. When i did an investigation about the woman, i came to know that she's the woman i saw yesterday being dead and got stabbed a number of times. I didn't have enough time to investigate further because I just had another case. But the more information I gathered, the more convinced I became that something strange is going on here. It seems like people are disappearing all around us. I got a call from Raphael that there's a murder in 4th square. When I got there, the crime scene investigators didn'

Louisa's p.o.v;After a week, Ace dropped me in front of my house and said, "All the best."I smiled at him and said, "Yeah." Then I started walking to my door. While I was getting things ready for tomorrow, I heard knocks on the door. 'Didn't he leave already?' I thought as I opened the door. I saw Raphael standing in front of me. When did he come? Did he see Ace dropping me and leaving? But before I could ask what he was doing there, he walked in while asking, "I thought you'd come tomorrow." He still thinks that I went to see my parents. Let it go with the flow then."How did you know I returned anyway?""I was driving past your street and saw you getting out of the car so I drove here?"So, he only saw me. I let out a sigh of relief."Oh right!" He exclaimed. "The thing is, I was here to ask how things went with your parents." Well, if he wants to know how things went so bad then I'll tell him…"They're good! We had breakfast, lunch and dinner together.""Eating is all you did f
One Million Reais Chapter 51
Louisa's p.o.v;While I was eating the breakfast brought by Ace, I looked up from my food and caught his eyes. His stare was intense, he almost seemed to be studying every single feature on my face."What's wrong?" I asked.He shook his head, a small smile tugging at his lips. "Nothing. Just wondering what you're doing today." He said nonchalantly.I stared into his deep brown eyes for several moments, taking in his features before replying."Me? Nothing really, I couldn't come up with anything since I'm being kidnapped here." I deadpanned, giving him an unamused look.Ace laughed lightly but didn't answer right away. Instead, he just continued staring at me. After a few moments, though, he finally spoke again. "Well I can't go anywhere because it's Sunday so maybe we could go do something together.""Together?" My eyebrows shot up and I raised an eyebrow of my own, "Like..." I trailed off, searching for a word. The corners of Ace's mouth turned up slightly, "Yeah." He replied simply

Louisa's p.o.v;I woke up at someone else's house. How did I end up here? I looked around and noticed I was in a small bedroom and the door was closed. I got out of bed as carefully and quietly as possible. The floor was cold against my bare feet and it made me shiver slightly. I remembered what happened last night. The images from last night flashed in my head where Ace stabbed Paulo in front of my eyes causing his blood to splatter on my face which made me disgusted. It was exactly like how I had dreamed but the difference was someone died and not me like in my nightmares. I ran to the bathroom and barfed into the sink. I gargled and washed my mouth and walked out of the bathroom once I'm done.I saw Ace placing a tray of food and looked like he was about to leave. I asked, "Why did you bring me here? Who's house is this?" "This is my house. You can be safe here." "I won't be safe if I'm near you." When I tried to walk out of the room, Ace stopped me by gripping my hand which w

AFTER THREE MONTHS,Louisa's p.o.v;I was woken up to the morning light on my face. I rolled over onto my back to watch it creep across the room. The sunlight crept in from my window, and I stared up at the ceiling. My phone was still buzzing next to me, but the noise did nothing more than wake me even more so. I sighed and turned to look at my alarm clock. 6:48 AM.Sitting up, I rubbed my eyes. I had been having a nightmare; one where someone was attacking me for no reason, only to turn out to be myself or a guy wearing a mask. And now I’m wide awake, and I can’t remember what exactly had happened, nor why I’d had that dream in the first place. All I could recall was being chased down the street, and screaming, “You’re mine!” at anyone who got in my way, which was pretty much everybody, I supposed. What's with the nightmares these days? Is it because of watching horror movies before going to sleep? But I thought it was just a myth.I mean, there are sto

Louisa's p.o.v;After Ace got out, I took him and headed home. While we're in the car, I held his hand and leaned on his shoulder and said, "Finally, everything's over. We're together now. Do you know how happy I am to be with you again? I got scared and lost my stand after hearing your arrest. Now, it feels like I got myself back on track since you're here with me.""How did you bring me out?" "Does that matter now? Now that you came outside, don't think about those things. Let's forget what happened and think about what we should do next…" said while tracing his hand in a seductive way. He snapped my hand and asked, "Tell me what did you do to bring me out?" "Why do you want to know?"I want to know." He asked the driver to stop the car and got out of it. I stepped out after him and looked at him who was walking over the bridge. I asked the driver to leave and walked to Ace. I stood in front of him and said, "I asked Paulo to help me to get you out of that place.""What did yo

Louisa's p.o.v;After hearing that Ace was arrested, I rushed to the police station and looked around. I walked among the police officers and found Raphael talking to the chief. I ran to him and asked, "Where's he?""Who are you looking for?" He asked me back while the chief gave a confused expression on his face. "Where's he?" I asked him again but with tears this time. He grabbed me by my arm and took me away from the chief and brought me to the document room and asked, "What are you trying to do? Do you want the whole police station to know about your love affair with that mafia? Do you know what will happen if they find out? If the chief knows about the real reason you were relieved from the case, do you think he'll let you go just like that? The name you earned solving all these cases will vanish in a few minutes. You'll become nothing to them but a liar.""I don't care about anything right now. I want to see him." I said while crying in front of him.He pulled me into a hug
One Million Reais Chapter 46
Louisa's p.o.v;Raphael asked without an expression on his face, "What am i witnessing here?" "Raphael, I…" When i tried to walk to him, He said, "Stop right there.""Raphael…" "Don't talk to me. Do you know how shocked I am to see you with him? Is this the friend you talked about? Is this the guy who you slept with?"I nodded and stood still. When he tried to slap me, Ace held his hand to stop him from hitting me. I said to Ace, "Please, Leave." After Ace left, Raphael slapped me right across the face and asked, "Do you even know who he is? He's the Phantom gang leader. He's a Mafia. Who's wanted by the police. Us. You're supposed to arrest him, not sleep with him dammit!... Now i understand why you got relieved from the case, he's related to that case, right? Thinking about the things that happened in the past… how long have you known him?" "Even before I joined as a cop." "So it was all a lie. You were with him all these years and lied to me that you don't about him. Did yo
