CHAPTER 59Kyle, who was working on his laptop, distracting himself from the thoughts he was having about a certain lady that seemed to have a crazy effect on him without trying, became tense when he read the text from Emily.He ran like a mad man towards suite 4, without even thinking to alert the proper authorities.“Emily! Emily!” He yelled frantically, pounding on Dante’s door.Dante opened the door slowly, looking as calm and as composed as ever.“Where is she?” Kyle roared. His gray eyes were bloodshot and his anger could literally be felt coming out of his pores.“Where is who?” Dante asked innocently. “I’m afraid you’re constituting a nuisance right now. Emily’s not here. After I took her on the ride you were so chicken go take her on, I dropped her off and I haven’t seen her since then,” He spoke calmly, but Kyle could hear the subtle jab in his tone.Emily texted him that she was in danger. That means she had to be in here. He gave Dante a cold sneer and shoved him by his che
CHAPTER 60Lloyd stood behind Nancy as he wore her a silver diamond Necklace. “You look beautiful, Amor,” He smiled and pecked her cheek.It was the next weekend after they returned from Shankar. Kyle was recovering well and Emily visited him regularly. Their relationship was slowly budding but nothing exciting.Lloyd planned to surprise Nancy tonight since his other surprises were cut short by the incident that happened.“And you look dashing my stallion,” Nancy replied and she stood up from her chair. “Shall we?” She said coyly, offering him her hand in a coquettish manner.Lloyd took her hand and kissed her knuckles, making her blush and they walked out of her room together.Lloyd wore a black Gucci trouser and a black Fendi short sleeve shirt that hugged his biceps sexily. His shirt was tucked in his trousers and he had the three upper buttons open, revealing the double tennis diamond gold chain he wore around his neck. He wore a pair of brown brogues that matched his belt and the
CHAPTER 61They boarded the helicopter and Nancy admired the city lights below as they ascended. She was cooped up in Lloyds arm. Her chest resting on his comfortable and perfect chest and she could hear and feel his heart pounding gently.She said nothing and relished in the comfort that his presence brought to her. She wondered if she ever truly stopped loving him.She suddenly noticed she couldn’t see any more lights and everywhere below them had turned pitch black.“Seriously Lloyd, where are we going?” She asked, sitting up and frowning her face. She was beginning to hate the suspense.Lloyd chuckled at her expression. “Is your frown supposed to scare me into telling you?” He mocked, earning him a more nasty glare.“We are no longer in the city, everything below is pitch black,” She replied, easing up her frown.‘What part of surprise did this woman not understand?’ Lloyd mused.The suspense she was feeling was exactly why the surprise he had for her was going to be worth it. He r
CHAPTER 62There was no way Lloyd could have pulled this one off. He did some really great things but this one, she couldn’t believe. The man before her was retired. He was still in the cooking business but not in the cooking part of it. Just the business side. Chef Alessandro was a multi millionaire retired chef who owned various restaurants around the world. Nancy had all seven volumes of his cookbooks and she was a big fan. Scratch that. She was his biggest fan.It was his recipes and success that inspired her to want to become a chef in the first place.When he got to their table, Nancy’s tongue was glued to her palate with her mouth shut as she stared at the elderly man in awe. It was safe to say she was star struck.“Hi Nancy,” Alessandro greeted her in his strong Italian accent. “Oh my God, it is you!” Nancy screamed.She completely lost her composure and stood up to hug him with her eyes watering. This was a dream come true for her. She was meeting her idol and not only that,
CHAPTER 63When Lloyd got to the house, he met Emily leaving.“Going to Kyle’s?” He asked with a smirk on his face.Emily’s face flushed and she replied. “Yeah I am.”Lloyd hummed in response. “You know if you ask me, I think you should just move in with him for now. He was in a lot of pain earlier and it’s not good for him to be alone all the time.”Emily was surprised. She had talked to Kyle almost every hour today and he didn’t for once mention any pain to her. Was he trying to hide his pain from her? “He didn’t tell me he was in pain and besides if he wants me to move in, he can tell me himself,” She replied with a shrug. She knew Kyle was the shy type but at least he could tell her something like that if that was what he wanted.“Daddy’s back Lex!” Lloyd suddenly heard Leo’s voice from inside.“Take care Emily, I’ll see you tomorrow then,” Lloyd said and stepped into the house.When Lloyd entered the house, he saw Leo standing by the door with a big grin and he hugged him. Soon L
CHAPTER 64Veronica instantly recognized who Angie was. Sure, she knew her husband’s mistress by face as a couple of her friends had reported seeing the lady with her husband multiple times, but being that it was her idea in the first place, she had never been bothered. But seeing her here, in Nancy’s house was shocking but she didn’t show it.“Angie!” Nancy cheerfully chorused. “Quickly, get changed and join us.” Angie gave her an awkward and nervous smile, scratching her nape and muttering a greeting to Veronica and Diana. Even though Veronica didn’t act like she recognized Angie, Angie was still very uncomfortable. She didn’t miss how Lloyd’s eyes bore into her with anger and disgust either. It was like Nancy had invited her into a lion’s den. She began to wonder if Lloyd had disclosed the truth about her relationship with Lucas to Nancy and if this whole thing was a set up.Her steps felt heavy as she dragged herself to the shower to change and join Nancy and Emily in the pool.A
CHAPTER 65As soon as Lloyd saw her walk in, everything clicked. He knew exactly how she got the information about his project. His fucking father.Allison had been trying so hard to reach Lloyd but he kept blocking her everywhere. She contemplated just showing up at Nancy’s house unannounced but that wasn’t her style. She already had plans to take care of Nancy. What she wanted was a chance to at least talk to Lloyd but the man was stonewalling her to the highest degree.Her incessant complaints to her father and Lucas made them both buy a Russian investment holding company and secretly named Allison the CEO.Lucas knew about Lloyd’s new project and he was the one behind the Chinese investors' skepticism. He knew that would open the door for Lloyd to consider other options, especially when the option in question was eager to invest in the project.He knew Lloyd was going to turn it down anyway but at least it would give Allison the chance to have an audience with Lloyd. Allison was c
CHAPTER 66After leaving the salon that afternoon, Nancy decided to drop by Lloyd’s office to see if she could steal him from work for a few hours so they could have lunch.She meant to surprise him so she didn’t call to inform him of her coming. Lloyd had previously instructed his staff to never keep Nancy waiting no matter how important of a meeting he was in. She was always to be allowed access to his office. When Nancy got to the door of Lloyd’s enclosed office, she could hear voices coming from inside. She initially thought Lloyd was in a business meeting and was about to head back to the lobby to wait when she heard Lloyd raise his voice. “Get out” was the most audible of his words.Then she heard the voice of the woman refusing to leave. She leaned in and placed her ear to the door. She could hear the woman begging Lloyd to take her in the office.She noticed how Lloyd went silent. Was he considering it, being with another woman, in his office of all places? She pushed the doo
