112.

The next morning, Mia sat in the living room, glancing through a fashion dance magazine. Mrs. Theresa had asked her to research some outfits they could use for the competition coming up soon.

She took a sip from the smoothie in her hand but frowned when she perceived a stench coming from up the stairs. Her nose twitched as she took it in.

"Who's smoking?" she asked herself and stood to her feet. Heading up the stairs, she tried to think. She and Estella were the only ones at home right now so it could only mean one thing - Estella was the one smoking.

Mia's face twisted in rage as she balled her fists and headed for Estella's room immediately. When she got there, she threw the door open, and just as expected, Estella was seated on a chair, her legs crossed with a cigarette in her hand as she threw her head back and puffed the smoke out of her mouth and nostrils.

On the table was a white substance and some small bottles as well.

Mia's eyes widened. "What the heck do you think

And she felt she couldn't have done it without Samantha's help. She turned to face Samantha when they stopped in front of her door. "Please, don't leave yet. I need to do something quickly." Samantha raised an eyebrow. "What?" Darcel chuckled and pulled Samantha into the room. Samantha looked around with a smile. Darcel bit her lower lip. "Please, have a seat," she rubbed her palms together. "Can I take a picture of you? I... I just want to thank you for taking me to see your mother. I won't forget this day even in death." Samantha chuckled and shook her head. "It's nothing, really." Darcel smiled. "It meant a lot to me, yunno. Considering our relationship in the past," she said and Samantha laughed.

    114. "It's a migraine," The doctor said, her gaze fixed on Samantha who sighed. Darcel facepalmed. "See? I told you it was due to the stress." The doctor scribbled on her notepad and handed Samantha a prescription. "You need to take some time off, ma'am. Your body can't handle the stress anymore. And don't forget to take your meds. They should help with the pain." Samantha nodded, her shoulders slumping. She looked at Darcel, "Looks like I'm not gonna be your good luck charm anymore." Darcel facepalmed. "I can't believe you're still making jokes when your health is like this. You've been stressing yourself out lately. It's time you rest before you body forces you to." Samantha sighed and nodded. "Thanks, Doc. Mara." she smiled and took the prescriptions from her. They were on their way out when Aiden rushed to them. He held Samantha immediately. "What happened? Darcel called to tell me she was taking you to the hospital." he said, his voice laced with worry. Samantha held his

She rang the doorbell, awaiting response but she got none. A few minutes later, she hearts footsteps coming towards the door and when the door opened, the smile on her face disappeared at whom she saw. "Estella," she gritted her teeth. Estella was disappointed to see her as well. She had thought Aiden had returned home. She had no idea it was... She groaned and walked back inside. Linda walled into the house and closed the door behind her. Estella took a seat on the couch and crossed her legs while she ate popcorn and watched a movie. The sight alone was annoying to Linda, and she wasn't someone who could keep her mouth shut. "Aren't you ashamed of yourself, Estella?" she spoke up, her expression hardening. Estella turned to face her. "Excuse me?" "I asked a question," Linda frowned with her arms folded. "How can you be so

"Why are you scared? We have nothing to lose anymore." Bianca sighed and sat down. "We might have nothing to lose, but killing her won't solve anything.

    117."You did what?" Samantha burst into a fit of laughter. "Are you being serious right now?"Mia sighed and massaged her forehead. "Have I ever looked this serious? I feel so embarrassed right now. I don't even know if I can face him after running away like that."Samantha chuckled. "But why would you run? It was just a simple question and Shawn is a nice guy.""I know. I panicked," she took in her bottom lip. "I was shocked. That question was totally unexpected. One minute we were making cook music, the next he asked me to be his girlfriend!" she raised her hands.Samantha leaned in closer. "Well, do you want to be his girlfriend?" she asked.Mia blushed and tucked a strand of hair behind her ears. Shawn wasn't a bad person. Infact he was a guy any lady would be lucky to have as a boyfriend. And she couldn't denied she had liked him one way or another.Shawn was real and genuine. He loved music like she does, and was the best form of support. He was perfect and yes, she would love

Aiden has gone to work and even though she pleaded with him to allow her go to the office today, he refused, asking her to rest. Well, she still had some contracts to draft, and she didn’t want to bother James with a lot of work. He was doing more than enough already, and she wasn’t one to make herself look like a liability to anyone.She sighed and ran her tongue over her bottom lip. She heard footsteps descending down the stairs, and didn’t bother to look. No one needed to tell her it was Estella, coming for trouble as usual.Estella snickered when she saw that Samantha was not interested in having a conversation with her. “Good morning, sister. You didn’t even call me down for breakfast. And here you are having coffee without me. Isn’t that cruel?” Samantha rolled her eyes. Ever since Mia tried calling Estella down for breakfast and ended up getting insulted by her, Samantha had refused

    Rose was pacing in the house as she waited for Alexis. She had invited Alexis over to know how the fundraiser with her and Ethan went. The door opened and Alexis walked in."Alex!" she exclaimed as the lady walked up to her."Mother," she placed the back of her palm on her forehead in a dramatic way. "Mother, you wouldn't believe what happened at the fundraiser. Ethan completely avoided him. He stopped me from touching him or even coming close to him. He bluntly told my father that Chloe was the person he loves and he can not be with me because he loves her. Your son broke my heart." she wiped invisible tears from her eyes and Rose sighed, her anger boiling over."I've tried all I could to separate those two. What has Chloe done to my son that he can't see how beautiful you are? Why can't he see that you're the right woman for him, huh?"

    What do you mean she escaped? How the heck can she escape when you told me you’ve been watching her go in and out of that apartment?” I snapped at Wells, who just ruffled his hair as he looked at me. The expression he had on his face was that of anxiety and confusion.“I think she left overnight. I tried asking the neighbors some questions, and they said she only comes out on rare occasions and whenever she comes outside, she is either in a hoodie or a face cap. They haven’t seen her face clearly since she moved in.” he explained, but I wasn't satisfied.“It's been two freaking months, Wells. I have people everywhere that will tell me if she attempts to leave the country. What the heck are you trying to say?” I narrowed my eyes.“But, sir, anything can happen. She might have escaped without anyone knowing.”I released a long breath and stood to my feet. “I don’t think she has gone anywhere, Wells. Go back to her house after sunset and check again.

He stared at his aunt's unconscious body, her frail form a stark reminder of his own vulnerability.Tears rolled down his cheeks as he recalled Janette's words: "Leave, Lucas." The finality in her voice still echoed in his mind. He felt like he was drowning in a sea of regret."Oh, Aunt Mary," he whispered, his voice cracking. "I've messed up so badly. I've lost her. I've lost Janette."He pulled up a chair and sat beside his aunt's bed, taking her limp hand in his. The warmth of her skin was a faint comfort."Why did I do it, Aunt Mary?" he asked aloud, his eyes welling up with tears. "Why did I cheat on her? Why did I lie to her?"The memories flooded his mind: Janette's laughter, her smile, her tears. He remembered the way she used to look at him, with love and adoration. Now, that same look wa

He couldn’t believe she really had a fiancé.Janette looked at him, her expression unreadable. Well… that served him right. He needed to know his place anyway.“Jane,” he called, his voice low and unsteady. “It’s really true? Tell me he is joking.” he looked at Liam, who had a smirk on his face.“Why do you need to know if it’s true or not? Isn’t it obvious,” he walked to where Janette stood and wrapped his arms around her shoulders. “She is going to be my wife soon. We are planning our wedding soon.”Lucas ignored Liam and faced Janette. “Tell me, Janette, tell me it’s not true.” he tried to touch her but she moved away from him.She intertwined her fingers with that of Liam and looked at Lucas. “It’s true, Lucas.

    Marilyn chuckled darkly as she continued to pull Chloe's hair. “What does it look like I'm doing, Chloe?” She asked, the bitterness in her voice evident. “Wouldn't it be cool for Mr. Ethan to know that you were spying on him?”“Spying?” Chloe's eyes widened. “I wasn't spying on him. What are you even saying? Let go of my hair right now!” Chloe snapped at her. Marilyn smirked, pulled the hair one more time before letting go of it. Chloe swiftly turned to face Marilyn, her face holding nothing but the anger she was feeling right now. “What did you do that for?” she snapped, and Marilyn chuckled with her arms folded.“You were eavesdropping, so I had to put you in your place. Now let's hear what Mr. Ethan will have to say about it!” she snapped and didn't give Chloe the chance to talk before dragging her into Ethan's office, interrupting him and Alexis.Ethan raised an eyebrow.“Mr. Ethan, it would interest you to know that Chloe here was spying on you and your visitor.” she reported w

There was pasta with sauce and meatballs; he even added chopsticks which was her favorite cutlery for when she eats pasta, there was her favorite dessert and cheesecake alongside her favorite drink, strawberry smoothie.A soft music began playing in the background and Chloe felt like she was home.

Wow." she stuttered, her eyes shining with tears.Ethan smiled and led her to the table and pulled out a chair for her. "Sit down, my love," he said, his voice low and husky.

    She doesn't look happy, Easton. She keeps screaming and saying she wants out of here,” He replied, and I sighed, running my hands through my hair. “Can you tell me how you got the famous Nicole Brennan to become your wife?” He asked.“Let's just say we met coincidentally. She was drunk, I was in search of a bride, she proposed to me, I accepted and… here we are.” I narrated to him, and he chuckled, causing me to smile.Apart from Maven, Steve was the only person I could really open up to. He took care of me right from when I was a teenager. He has been my butler from when I was a kid, and whenever I went through a lot and asked him to find his way out of my life, so he wouldn't get hurt, he would always choose to stick with me. We've been through a lot together, and he knew my pains and how to help me manage them. He was like a father figure to me because he did things which my father refused to do for me.I'm lucky to have him.“But why did you accept her proposal? I know you to be a

    The drive to his house was taking too long, and it was becoming boring staying inside the car and doing nothing. I turned to look at Easton, but he had a straight expression as he looked ahead.I sighed and tucked a strand of hair behind my ears. This wasn't how I pictured my life to be at all. I was supposed to be on my own, planning my revenge against those dimwits, but here I am, going to live in someone else's house as his wife. No one needs to tell me what can happen if this goes into the news.They'd probably say I seduced him and wanted to use his money to make a comeback.“Aren't we there yet?” I asked him.All I wanted right now was a place to rest my head and get rid of all these thoughts twirling in my head.Easton turned to look at me, his gaze softening. “What? Are you that excited to see where I live, wifey?” He asked and I became annoyed.“Stop calling me your wife, Mr. Easton.” I replied formally, but he shrugged and looked away from me.“You're my wife now, Nicole.
