Lara was embarrassed hearing Edwin’s words.Chesley was his fiancé why did he say he didn’t want to join because of outsiders?But she noticed Chesley didn’t mind, so she didn’t meddle on this topic.At night when they retired to bed, she slowly scooted toward Edward and he took her in his arm habitually.“Edward, what’s happening with Edwin?” Lara asked, placing her face on his chest.Edward didn’t want to inform Lara about this matter, but his closeness with Chesley was affecting Edwin’s relationship with them.They couldn’t ignore his feelings because of some outsiders.“I think you should stay away from Chesley,” Edward said and Lara looked up confused.“Chesley is Edwin’s fiancé, our future daughter-in-law.” Lara didn’t understand his words.He looked dissatisfied with her behavior.“Lara, you wanted to announce this engagement, so I didn’t stop you. But you should have asked Edwin beforehand.” Edward said and Lara sat up and looked at him dissatisfied.“don’t you know his charac
In these months, Edwin had allowed none of his relatives to visit here. Even Elisa never came here to disturb them before that party.but in these few days, first Chesley and then Lara.last time, she introduced herself as Edwin’s secretary in front of Chesley.But what would she say to Lara about her? A secretary would never step inside the kitchen and work like the lady of the house.Before she didn’t think about it as it was Edwin’s demand and according to the contract she had to fulfill it.And she preferred home cook meals rather than those expensive takeout which weren’t worth of money.But she didn’t want to face Lara’s questions. She didn’t want Lara to think she was some cheap whore.“Grandma, what are you doing here?” Elisa asked stuttering and even she also looked at Janet.Ben wasn’t sure what the situation would happen when Lara noticed Janet, but how these two stupid siblings were looking at Janet Lara would notice her without effort.They were behaving like a child who
Janet was disturbed hearing Lara’s offer.She was worried Lara would misunderstand her, but her question proved she was sure about Janet’s relationship with Edwin.Why did she ask those questions?Was she making sure Janet didn’t get involved in Edwin’s and Chesley’s relationship?What other reason she could have when a few weeks back she was announcing Chesley as their daughter-in-law in front of everyone?Maybe she wanted to give her a warning.She wanted to make sure Janet didn’t try to break their relationship.That could be the only reason.In Wilson’s residence,Edward was anxiously pacing around when he couldn’t find Lara inside the house.Lara rarely went outside because of her health issue and whenever she walked out, Edward always accompanied her.He couldn’t get peace thinking what would happen if she suffered from a sudden heart attack and there was no one to take her to the hospital.She had already suffered from two minor attacks and the doctor had advised her to stay ca
“Don’t behave like a hooligan,” Janet mumbled, and Edwin snickered.“Hooligan?” Edwin asked.“Didn’t I say I don’t want you to come close to me?” Janet asked.“But you fell on me,” Edwin countered, making Janet irked up.“You…” Janet was going to scold him, but she didn’t.They were silently sitting and looking at the TV, which was turned off long back.“Why did you do this all the time?” Janet asked and Edwin turned his face toward her but Janet wasn’t looking at him.“As much as I want to stay away from you, you don’t let me.” Janet slowly said, but her words held accusation.She was annoyed at how much Edwin affected her still, she couldn’t do anything about this.She was getting sucked in him and like he was a black hole pulling her toward him and she could do nothing to ignore this pull.“Why do you want to stay away? Did you never feel the emotions between us?” Edwin asked finally.He was confused as to why she wanted to stay away when Edwin could see he affected her as much as
Next morning,When Janet woke up, she found herself sleeping peacefully in her bed.She had no memory of the conversation she had with Edwin, so she didn’t know she had almost confessed her love to him.Moreover, she forgot all the secrets that she was hiding inside her heart were exposed.She walked inside the bathroom to freshen up as usual.In the dining room,Elisa was sitting holding her plate as she was hungry.“How long, Edwin?” Elisa yelled, and Edwin just rolled his eyes and concentrated on his cooking.It’s been so long since they were having breakfast like this.They used to do it when their parents used to go out on business trips.Elisa has always been a pampered child and Edwin used to make her breakfast before they got ready for school and college, respectively.“Don’t yell like you are starving from eon,” Edwin said and Elisa struck her spoon on the plate.“I am. My stomach has been protesting since last night.” Elisa argued, and Edwin just chuckled.“Why? Didn’t you h
Edwin took Elisa to the Wilson residence as she complained she was getting bored living alone.Edwin was busy with his office work and he found her demand reasonable.When Edwin entered, Lara was delighted.She excitedly ordered the butler to prepare dinner for them and though Edwin wasn’t ready to stay, she couldn’t disappoint her.Edwin thought of meeting Edward as he had nothing to do with these ladies.“He is sitting inside his study,” Lara informed Edwin and busied herself with Elisa.When Edwin walked upstairs, Lara carefully confirmed he wasn’t listening to their conversation and pulled Elisa toward the living room and sat closer.“Grandma, what happened?” Elisa couldn’t guess her sneaky behavior and asked.“You tell me what’s happening between Edwin and that girl, what’s her name… Janet.” Lara said, remembering.“You must have mistaken. Nothing is going on between them. Janet is my friend,” Elisa said hurriedly, looking elsewhere trying to break eye contact with her.She had gu
Janet wasn’t feeling well today. Still, she was going to visit Rim as she was missing her.Edwin had taken Elisa to the Wilson residence, and they were probably staying there for the meal.Elisa had now slightly recovered, but the bandage needed to be kept for a few days so she was still bound to using a wheelchair.Janet didn’t mind taking care of her, but she had to leave for her office every day and Elisa would feel bored sitting alone all day.So, she thought Elisa had made a better decision to stay a few days at the Wilson residence.Janet was taking the elevator when she was feeling dizzy.She thought it must be because of the elevator, but when she got off the elevator, nausea hit her and everything blurred in front of her.Before she could balance, she fainted.When Janet woke up, she was in the emergency room.Noticing her awake, the nurse came forward.“How are you feeling? You fainted in the corridor.” The nurse informed her.“I was suddenly feeling dizzy and then everythin
Janet couldn’t sleep peacefully the entire night.She was having nightmares about various things.Like, her mother got to know everything, and she again fell into a coma.Edwin got to know about the pregnancy and forced her into abortion.Chesley got to know about the pregnancy and tried to kill her and her child.Edwin got to know about the pregnancy and locked her inside his villa. When she gave birth, he snatched the child away and Chesley was holding her child and laughing like a maniac.Every dream of her made her restless the entire night.When she woke up with this black dark circle, Rebecca only felt distressed.“Didn’t you sleep last night?” she couldn’t help herself from asking. “I did, maybe I wasn’t used to sleeping here,” Janet said and Rebecca just shook her head disappointed.“You are sleeping in this bed all your life, Nothing changed.” Rebecca caught her lies and Janet ate her food silently.“Get ready, we are going somewhere,” Rebecca informed while picking up the d
