DIEGOIt's just as I suspected. Pedro is the one who's keeping Carla away from me. But I couldn't tell what he was using to turn her mind away from me.In the remaining few days to the wedding, I tried to get hold of Carla, but everything was to no avail.Her lines were suddenly blocked. When I came around to her place to know what happened, she was absent. "She misplaced her lines. Pedro had to get her a new one. Isn't he sweet?" Mrs Parker had shared when I came over the third time to meet her.I was so mad that I had to go over to Pedro's place to find him. But I met his father instead. The old man noticed the rage all over me and requested to know what was happening."You boys no longer talk to each other again. Is there something wrong?" He had asked. All I could do was tell him that all was well."I just wanted to talk to him. That's all," I lied, leaving his home.But that didn't stop me from looking for Pedro and Carla."Where did you take her to?!" I groaned, feeling wor
CARLA"What? How did she know?"I stared at Jessica in horror, as she revealed to everyone my secret relationship with Diego.This left my heart pounding with fear and my whole body heating up with speed.How did she get this information?I was troubled.Worst, I saw how everyone began staring at me like I was someone made out of filth. Even my school mates, and the cheer leading team that came, stared at me in shock.I felt terrible as my feet drew backwards from Pedro's side."This can't be happening," I panicked within, directing my gaze at Jessica. She had a cunning smile on as she went on talking, exposing my affairs with Diego."This slut always sleep with him just to get whatever she wants. So repulsive!" She scoffed out."This would explain how he always stands by her at school, even when she doesn't deserve it! " Jessica added, showing off her jealousy.The witch! She didn't leave the school without leaving me behind. She still hd something up her sleeves to get back at me f
CARLAThe news of my wedding with Diego went wild like forest fire.Many saw the update on the net, going crazy over the news.They couldn't believe it.#NEWLY WEDHEADLINE: UNPLANNED WEDDING.That was the trending topic all over the net and the news.When I checked, I saw a video of mine and Diego's wedding. Someone had uploaded it for everyone to see.The comments were my favorite. What I saw left me smiling with joy."O.M.G! Their parents gave blessed them?""What?! I thought they were brother and sister?""I knew something was fishy between the two of them. Their sibling bond didn't look convincing to me.""Awwn! My billionaire crush is married. But she's so beautiful. I want to cry."I laughed when I read the comments. It really made my day.I thought I would come across negative response, but I didn't see any.Even if I do see one, I know the vampire who's responsible."Are you ready?" I heard Diego's voice from behind.I turned around and found the love of my life, my hubby, st
CARLA"How could he do this to me?" I cried, racing through the floor of the hotel I was in.I thought the rumors were fake, but it was all true.Pedro has been dating Jessica secretly behind my back, and I was too blind to see it.But today, I confirmed it all.I caught my boyfriend and that cheerleader, getting intimate here in the hotel. And when I confronted Pedro, he dared to send me out, calling me useless."After everything I did for him, he dares to call me useless?" I groaned, wiping my tears off my face."I'm going to show him. I'll show him what a useless girl like me is capable of doing." I stormed away, coming up with a plan to get back at Pedro.He always thinks of himself as someone high and mighty, someone that every woman runs to. But I'll show him that I can also be naughty."All I need is someone to... Oof!" I came bumping into someone accidentally. When I lifted my gaze to apologize, I'm left stunned on seeing who the person is."Diego Smith?" My eyes came wide, s
CARLA"This can't work. I can't allow that man to be my stepbrother," I groaned in my room, pacing about in anger."I didn't know Mom was dating a billionaire. I wonder how they even met." I continued to pace about, until I came to a stop at the window.I looked and saw Diego and his father getting into their car."Inasmuch as I love my mother, I can't allow Diego to be a part of this family. I'll have to end this union between Mom and Mr Smith," I decided.It's the only way I can keep that beast from coming closer to me.If not for Mom that called my name when Diego had me against the wall, he wouldn't have set me free.Such a man can't be a part of my home. This relationship has to end.I watched Mom wave goodbye at Diego and his father, before making her way to the house. Quickly, I rushed out of my room to see her."So, what do you think about your new father?" She asked, grinning at me."Well..." I crossed my arms. "He's not that bad.""Not that bad? Is that the best you can say
CARLA"I can't believe I allowed him to sleep with me again. Why didn't I resist him?"I sat in my room in the morning, thinking about last night's intimacy with Diego.I've been unable to sleep properly after Mom returned from her date. Diego has just been on my mind.That man didn't miss a chance of getting me under his spell. He has this irresistible charm that gets me hook to him once his body comes in contact with mine."What can I do?!" I groaned, falling back into bed.KNOCK! KNOCK!!"Clara, aren't you going to school today?" Mom asked from outside my room.I sighed, remembering that I still have to get ready to head to Crescent College.Another stressful place to be in."I'm coming. Will be ready soon," I said, dragging myself out of bed."Okay sweetheart. I made you a sandwich. Don't forget to eat before leaving," Mom said, distancing from my room.I went into the bathroom, shutting the door from behind.."See you later dear, " Mom said, dropping me at school.I watched her
CARLA"You must be joking. Carla is your sister?" Pedro asked, almost laughing at what Diego had said."Diego Smith, brother to Carla Parker? This is the most expensive joke in the world." Jessica laughed out.Their reaction to Diego's word didn't bother me. I was more concerned about why Diego would refer me as his sister.Did he have a change of heart after remembering our parents are getting married?"Stop this joke, Diego. This is not funny.""You'll know the difference between funny and serious when I get you and your handmaid troubling Carla again," Diego said, displaying his arrogant nature at Pedro and Jessica.For the first time I found Diego's arrogant nature pleasing to my ears.The looks on Jessica's face, when he called her a handmaid, left me smiling with delight."I won't repeat myself again.""Are you threatening me? " Pedro asked, unable to hide his shock anymore.That's when I felt Diego's hand falling on my shoulder. It sent my body vibrating, as I lifted my eyes to
CARLAA few days after that incident at school, students at Crescent college couldn't stop talking about Diego and I.The school press had even done a paper with the both of us on it, holding ourselves arm to arm, right on the front page.This pleased me greatly."Pedro must be biting his hands just seeing this." I laughed."Carla dear, are you busy?" Mom came into my room."No. Is there anything?" I asked, keeping my phone aside.Mom sat next to me and shared, "Carla dear. Your step father and I will be heading to Italy for a trip.""Oh waw! The wedding hasn't even taken place and you two are already going for a honeymoon. Nice." I winked at Mom."Keep shut, you naughty girl."I laughed at Mom."Carlos has a business meeting to face overseas. He wants me to come along with him for a month.""A month?" I gazed, finding it too long."I know, it's too much, but it's important for him to head there and handle all the work at Italy. He doesn't want to feel all lonely there, so I have to g
