A loud crack woke her up. Sheena cursed because a car blocked their way. It was literally on their way, and it looks like it owns the road.
"Why are we having such bad luck today?" Sheena said, frustrated.
She stormed out of the car and walked up to the black Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita. She was not stupid to not know that this is one of the most expensive cars in the world. She wants to go home and forget this night. And whoever drives this luxurious car that was on her way will taste her wrath.
"Hoy! Ano pag-aari mo itong kalsada, ha? Aba, mahiya ka. May dadaan dito, oh. Sipain ko 'tong sasakyan mong gago ka, eh!" Hey! Are you the owner of this highway? Be ashamed. We are going to drive our way home! I am going to kick your car, asshole!
She said this with her hands on both sides of her waist.
"Lianne, we are in Pennsylvania, he won't understand you!" Sheena said this nervously, still in the driver's seat.
She arched her brow. It's a good thing the driver won't understand what she's saying. The wind blew harshly, so some strands of her hair flew away, then the light from the headlight of the black Koenigsegg made her eyes hurt.
The car's door opened. Her breathing stopped, and suddenly she could utter a word when the man she was wishing not to see anymore walked out of the car. His face was serious, and his eyes were glaring at her. It seems like a tragedy is about to happen. She just rolled her eyes, it was not surprising that this man was rich. She almost forgets about it! The man walked, stopped at the hood of his expensive car, and sat down with his arms crossed.
"Now what?" she grumbled.
"You mistaken me for someone, woman," he said, his face still dark.
"Mistaken my ass! Don't fool me, Zyd! Get lost or I'll kick your balls," she warned him and crossed her arms in front of the man.
"Cous, let's go home. Our deaths will be so soon because of you!" Sheena shouted nervously, still inside the car, not wanting to get out because of fear.
The man smirked. His expression softened for a split second before going stern again. He approached her. She didn't move; it seemed like she had forgotten everything. The man in front of her is now 6'4' tall, and his body was massive in comparison to hers. She will look like a Barbie doll if she stands beside him.
She can't deny the fact that Zyd is extremely attractive and oozes sex appeal, plus he’s a Canadian. His newly cut brown hair gives chills to every woman who looks at him. He has a gorgeous appearance thanks to his hazel-brown eyes, long eyelashes, and brow. He had a pair of kissable lips. A sharp nose that matches his brow. And because he's recently shaved, he seems much younger than his 30 years. Her heart went crazy all of a sudden. Shit!
Her heart was not cooperating again, she went through this and moved on!
She quickly turned and went back to Sheena. She didn't want her heart to betray her again! She really needs to go! She was about to get in the car quickly, but to her surprise, a strong arm pulled her arm, and she didn't know what happened next. A passionate kiss greeted her, and one hand hugged her tightly around the waist while the other supported her head.
God!
She was completely shocked! Plus, the cold wind blew, and she felt like the stars were dancing in her eyes. Why hadn't she felt this before when she kissed him? Wait... He kisses her, and suddenly reality hits her. She resisted, but the man held her waist tight enough to stop her from running away, and his kiss got deeper. Oh, his kiss was divine, and her knees were melting. She responded to his kiss, but the man suddenly released her and stepped back.
"I just returned the kiss you stole, Miss Fierce," the man said as he walked away from her and into his car.
While she was left speechless. If Sheena didn't approach and pull her, she would not regain her composure.
"What was that Lianne Elhouette Vergara!" Sheena exclaimed when they finally entered the car. "That was unbelievable! The great Zyd Caiden kissed you. Oh my goodness! Good thing I grabbed a few photographs of you two. It was mind blowing. We need to get home. I am going nuts because of you!"
While she was still dazed and touching her lips. Really? He really did kiss her? Oh my!
Her heart! Her heart is out of control again. What is he talking about? Getting back the kiss she stole? What the hell... So, why did he take so much back? What will she do next? She was absolutely befuddled.
She wanted to scream in frustration, but her mind was distracted by that man's irritating face and the kiss he gave her. She can still feel the strong arm around her waist and the lips kissing hers. All hail Mary!
She slapped herself. She is unable to progress in this state. Shit!
How can she move on now? Jeez!
***
THE FOLLOWING DAY, when her aunt arrived home, she pulled their ears and started nagging them. Her aunt had just gotten home from a 1-week seminar, so that’s why they had plenty of free time during the past few days to go out bar hopping.
"Ouch, mum! Stop it! Stop pulling my ear." Sheena whimpered, and so she was.
"Aunt Mariya! My ear, my ear!"
"You two, explain the video that has gone viral on social media!"
"What video?!" Sheena and she stare at each other with shocked expressions on their faces.
She hurried as fast as thunder to get her aunt Mariya's phone. What kind of video? She has no video scandals, and even less—Oh, my God!
"Lemme see!" Sheena grabbed the phone and went to Twitter, searching for the video her mother had mentioned.
When she saw how she kissed the man and how hard she slapped it on the video, she bit her lower lip. Even though her face was concealed by the dim lighting and the surroundings, she knew her aunt would still be able to recognize her when she turned around to leave and the bar light touched her face.
Sheena nervously said, "Um... mum, actually," with a bitter look on her face.
She shook her head. She got hot under the collar when she saw the caption, which has already received 2 million views!
‘Our Captain Zyd Caiden McCluskey was kissed by Ms. Red Stalker.’
Really? The caption is over the top! She can sense the jealousy of the person who posted the video. Stalker? Really? God! She only asked for restitution for what he had done to her. People nowadays desire to become famous overnight simply by posting such videos! Argh. But who cares?
"Stubborn kid!" she nags them both. "And you, Lianne, I didn't stop you from doing what you want because you're already an adult, but the fact that you stole a kiss and slapped that man who's driving the girls crazy here in Pennsylvania is another thing, kid. You're giving me a heart attack! Okay, I'll simply rest for the time being. God! You two are grounded for one month, and no more barhopping," she remarked, before turning her back on them.
Her cousin Sheena wailed and protested about how her happiness had been snatched away. While she laughed at Sheena, she went back to her bed and laid back down. She's still wearing makeup and has a headache! Wait, where's my phone? Sheena slapped her arms, causing her to return to reality. "We're grounded, girl," she said, rolling her eyes at her. "Have you seen my phone? I can’t find—" but stopped as she realized she had given the man her phone. She jumped out of bed and pulled her hair. Oh my! Lianne, you are such a moron! "What? You forgot it, right? You just handed it over to Captain Zyd last night and walked out like you were in a fashion show." Her cousin teased her. She slapped herself for being so foolish. She won't ever set foot inside a bar again. She was now traumatized. Why? Why did she give it to him? She is not Santa Claus, jeez! While Sheena was on her phone, grinning and shivering. She can't help but look at Sheena's phone just to smooth her unkempt hair. Omg! It'
Finally, she found a new job in a coffee shop. It was fine for her since she works as a cashier there. If she converts it to Philippine pesos, it's still a lot of money. She is not picky about jobs; if she is interested in one, she will pursue it. The Coffee Shop was not as crowded since it had just opened and was not as well known as other coffee shops. And she was with two other Filipinas who work at the coffee shop. She immediately made two new friends. "He's extremely attractive, isn't he?" The two ladies, whose names she knew as Hera and Trixie, were fantasizing while their gazes were drawn to a large flatscreen TV in the corner. She glanced at them right away, just to roll her eyes at the person they were talking about. She simply ignored them and returned her focus to the menu. She has no interest in coffee, therefore she must remember every variety on the menu! It's difficult, though. "I wish I was as fortunate as his girlfriend." Hera said, daydreaming again like a fool.
The man immediately paid for the coffee he had ordered and then turned away from her without saying anything. She left me speechless. Sorry for what? Suddenly, she realized she still hadn't handed him his change. She got up quickly, hurried outside after the man, and gave him the change. When she saw him, he was already on his motorcycle and wearing his helmet. She dashed forward to get closer to the man and called him, "Hey, Sir!" It glanced at her. She was about to say, "You left your change," when suddenly she stumbled over her foot, and the next thing she knew, the pavement floor had caught her. She cried out in pain, "Ouch!" and staggered to her feet. "Min Dam, are you okay?" the man rushed over to her and helped her stand. She still managed to hand him his money. What a pain! Why was she chasing him to begin with? They're not even playing chase. This man can use his card, so why the hell did he use cash instead? Argh. I hate it! It’s so embarrassing. "What makes you hurry?
She tugged Zyd's collar and gave him a silent kiss before he could finish what he was about to say. He was taken aback by what she did. They remained that way for minutes. "Fuck we lost her!" God! She finally let out a breath. She was quietly relieved when those jerks disappeared, but she quickly realized it was Zyd Caiden McCluskey, whom she had just kissed right now. 'Omg! The what I did?' Why did she do it? Why, of all people, did she run into this man again? How can she get out of here? "Nice strategy. You are going with me to the police station." He drove the car quickly. Wait, what? "Hey, hey, I'm not a thief! I was being robbed, and someone was trying to harm me, so I ended up hiding myself inside your car," she explained. This is so annoying. "Who are you fooling with?" he asked, simply staring at her and making it clear he didn't buy what she was saying. "Whether you like it or not, you will go with me." Crap! Does she look like a thief? She could do nothing when the
She was already at her station, and he was standing in front of her, holding the menu and pointing to the particular coffee he wanted that day. "Can I have this coffee?" The man's eyes still didn't leave her alone, and she felt awkward about it. "Which one, sir?" Hera teased. "Do you mean Lianne Coffee Ala Latte?" As soon as the man nodded, Trixie started giggling, which almost knocked her over in excitement. "I mean, espresso," the man said, then paid for what he had ordered and went to his seat. Her two colleagues were trying hard not to scream and poke her, while she just shrugged them off. Then Lianne remembers that this man is a hockey player. "Sir?" She went to his seat and stood in front of him. The man sat near the window, his entire attention focused on the phone. "Yeah?" he asked, looking at her. "You are a hockey player, right?" "Hmm?" "Are you acquainted with Zyd Caiden McCluskey?" For a brief moment, the man, as well as her two colleagues, were taken aback by her
LIANNE was smirking while she's seating and faced the empty Coffee Shop. She didn't seem to have any intention of silencing her brain by thinking to the man that whatever she would do to get rid ofit, but nothing is happening! It was like a broken record that repeatedly reappeared in her mind. If she can just remove her brain and throw it in the ditch, right?What the heck Lianne, you're going crazy. You go to work, okay? You didn't go to Pennsylvania just to flirt, you woman! She scolded herself and almost banged his head on the table. Maybe when he does that, she will wake up from the truth.They had no customers on that day so what they did, they hung out and waited for a customer to arrive. The two of her coworkers were chatting near the glass wall while he was just sitting in her seat. It's been 2 weeks since she last saw the young man but who cares, she doesn't want to see him anymore. Lianne rolled her eyeballs and sighed.Sh*t g
Zyd was shocked in no time when Lianne vomited on him from which she suddenly appeared and claimed to be his fiance. He didn't know if he would laugh or get even more upset because he found out that Kate had cheated on him.Fuck that woman! He angrily punched the steering wheel but that was only for a moment because the woman next to him who was now asleep was talking."Sir, can you give me a coin..."He rubbed his temple. He quickly got out of the car and for the last time, he glanced at Kate whom he once dreamed of being presented at the altar and being with him until they got old.He did not know where the woman by the name Elhouette lived. He decided to take it to his own house and this woman was still in arrears with him.Zyd had no companion in his house so he was forced to clean the woman. He led the girl to his guest room of his house and put her in the bed. He's not that kind of gentleman. The woman whispered and seemed to be talking to he
She used to love the man before but that doesn't mean he can take her body. She will let him charge her with rape and kidnapping! This man is very heartless, and he has done bad things to her."Zyd Caiden McCluskey!" she shouted loudly."W-what is it? Hmmm? " Only then did he wake up.She burst into tears and angrily slapped the man. With the force of his slap, his spirit was awakened completely and covered his face.She immediately pulled the blanket to hide her nakedness and angrily looked at the man. "Don't you dare tell me what, you moron!" She was about to slap him again but he quickly caught her hand and restrained her from what she was going to do."Look Elhouette," he said.She immediately avoided looking at the man since her body was too exposed to him. She doesn't care if Zyd's abs scream nice and hard because she's going to put Zyd into jail. She took care of her virginity for a long time. This animal is really heartless and they
Kate hadn't gotten close to them yet, she threw a hard object at it that she held to one side. Reasons to stop it and get sick. She took that opportunity to run the door out. She screamed as it chased her and pulled her hair. Her daughter was hit hard when she was about to stab her but she kicked the woman in the stomach. It was depressed and backed up in pain. He expected Kate to get angry, no, because it just laughed pleased with what she did. This mad beast can't hurt them! “You’re all gonna die!” it just lacks, it chokes with laughter. It lay down and quickly crawled in their direction. "Mommy!" frightened Aerush Li screamed loudly as he was carrying her. He was devastated when his leg was injured. It cut his leg and he felt the pain coming from it. "Baby, run!" She let go of her son and ran it over. Kate will kill them if that's what she wants but it won't touch even the end of her son's dress. “Mommy, I’m scared! I’m scared. ” crying its promise to him but stepping towards th
he stopped at a distance. He saw a house and from it, the old Doctor came out. He stretched out to sit in the passenger seat. He stared at it and clenched his fist. Why does he feel, time is playing tricks on him? Or is he too distracted? He was even more surprised when the next to come out of the house, was the woman he knew. Kate.He clenched his fist. When he once confronted Kate it was he who got angry. But now, he sees the two meet. He was hesitant about which one he would follow, the departing woman in her car or the one to talk to the old Doctor. The first prevailed.The old man was surprised to see the guest. He was suddenly confused and stuttered even though he hadn't asked anything.“M-mr. McCluskey? ”He did not smile. His gaze remained in line with it. "I am."“W-what are you doing h-here?”"For a coffee." Even though it di
That night, Lianne was barely visited by drowsiness. Many circumstances entered her mind and the sheer amount of it, she did not know which to prioritize. Add to that, that Henrik again offered her his love earlier when they were on their way home and Aerush was sound asleep in her arms. It's been a year and she's not a fool so that the young man can't love her on the other hand that she has a child. He still accepts and is able to stand as the father of her child.She sighed and got up. She felt herself, was she ready? Is she ready to accept his love? On the other side of her brain, yes. On the right, confused by her feelings for Henrik.She lay down again on the soft bed and watched the child sleep soundly beside her. Her daughter used to call the man her Daddy. She always told her that she wanted the man to be Daddy and the younger brother also wanted her to cry.Wait, how old is her son again? 2
The Nurse immediately suggested that Mrs. McCluskey must go to the hospital immediately even the Nurse, surprised and even confused, was able to calm down and ordered Zyd to lift her mother and take her to the Hospital.Lianne was restless in her seat as she cried out loud outside the ER. It seems like a while ago, the fun they had talking to Mrs. McCluskey. She knew she hadn't put anything in her cooked food. She was still trembling as she hugged herself and waited for the news."Zyd!" She stood up when she saw the man come out and stand in the doorway. She looked at him and his eyes were full of pain and anger. "Zyd ..." it just drew in her throat."Why ?!" She was unprepared when Zyd quickly approached her and leaned hard against the wall. She was hurt but she endured the pain. “Why t
Zyd ate first at Country’s Coffee Shop and bought coffee before he returned to the Hospital. He was in the elevator with his ex – girlfriend Kate. It immediately clung to his arm but he quickly removed it. Only then did he notice her wearing this ring. He quickly took her hand and looked at her sternly. He frowned and looked at the woman badly."Where the fuck does you get this?"It winced in pain from his grasp. “You’re hurting me!”His gaze deepened on it and tightened his grip on Kate's hand even more. “Where ?!”"From Lianne!" She pulled her hand away and quickly hid behind it, "She gave me this, saying I deserve this ring since you bought it for me."Damn! He refrained from getting angry. He calmed himself and looked at the woman without emotion, "Give me that.""No!" It backed away and gave him a dista
Zyd clenched his fist when he saw Lianne riding in Gustavvson's car. He grinned. The true color of the woman has come out. He looked so dark that he drove the car back home.She immediately went to the women's room and took back the contract left by Lianne and the letter. He quickly crushed it and threw it in a nearby trash bin. Fuck! Its courage to leave his power after he did?His fist began to clench and he forced himself to calm down. It took him some courage to tell him in the letter that she didn’t want to be with him and that Henrik Gustavvson was the man she wanted to be. That he was simply used in exchange for the woman’s money and citizenship. That she’s no longer chasing money because Gustavvson can give more, he was more handsome than him and he was fed up with him so she was leav
Lianne went into a cheap hotel. She didn’t want to go back to her aunt’s house and she might hear her aunt's long lecture when she sees her carrying her belongings. She also left on the bed her contract with Zyd and she left a note that she wanted a divorce. After what happened, will she still be stupid? She was in Pittsburgh, not in the Philippines to be a martyr. Only in the Philippines is the trend fragile.She quickly wiped the tears that came out of her eyes. No, ‘Zyd didn’t deserve her cry. Because the truth is, if she’s stupid, Zyd is even more stupid! Her ex has done it a few times, go ahead and she won't lose it. She did break her heart and hurt but that doesn’t mean she will be weak. She adjusted herself and promised she would not cry while looking in the mirror.S
Lianne decided to go to the Coffee Shop that day but it was still closed. So, she decided to visit her favorite spot again; the swing. She sat there quietly and freely gazed at the beautiful plant in the distance. It seemed like only yesterday that Zyd and I were still happy and in a flash his attitude towards her suddenly changed. She smiled bitterly; she hadn't prepared for that. She sighed slowly. She was on the swing for an hour and she didn’t realize she fell asleep while leaning on the rope.She just woke up when someone caressed her cheek, she saw Henrik and smiled fondly at him. "I'm sorry if I wake you up."Her cheeks flushed and she sat up and smiled sweetly. "Hey!" she got to greet him.Henrik just smiled and sat on the other swing. “How’s life? You seem sad? Something bothered you?”She laughed at Henrik's many questions. Maybe they will have a qu
“Get ready—” She was suddenly startled and stared at her body.She was distracted when her husband entered her room. She was wearing a thin red nightie and it was obvious that her undies were wearing. How did he get in? Did she forget to lock? She sneezed and artistically walked to bed. She was on the couch earlier and reading a weird book she had previously bought at the bookstore."How did you get in?" she asked as she sat on the bed in front of him. Next to him was Muning who was artistically lying and sleeping.He did not respond. She just looked at him from head to toe and was obviously disgusted by his presence. Lianne thought she would come out and apologize for the sudden entry into her room but no. He stepped in and closed the door.
