If there was any time for Alice to leave without being seen by Harry, it would be right about now. She hated how her heart would flutter, her cheeks was starting to reddens, a feeling of achiness overtook her body just by seeing a glimpse of this man and it's unfair to her. After what he had done and all the memory finally resurface in her deep sub consciousness, she could stop her tears from falling.
She bit her bottom lip hard as the same feeling she had felt from 5 years ago resurfaced. Anguish, anger, pain and frustration overwhelms her. She had suffered so much. Cried so much and it pains her that she had to go through this same emotion just by seeing him again.
When Alice already has her small luggage in a tight grip on the handle, she was ready to bolt. G stops her and her eyes was a pool of concern. She knows that expression very Well. She had been with her best friend through thick and thin. That includes the injustice that was done to her by her own husband and
Having no opportunity or ability to meet G and say goodbye to her, Alice was furious yet kept herself calm the whole time as Sammy and Elias walk her to the car.Right in the middle of the airport road where passengers are being picked up, the car which awaits her were a luxurious Rolls-Royce Phantom VIII. People were staggering around, staring at that car and seeing Sammy and Elias was bringing her there with her being in the middle of them, she froze.There was a figure in the back seat of the car. Huge and fills up half of the backside of the car and Alice knows very well who that was. Elias curled his fingers around her arm and urge her to move forward. She turns her gaze towards Elias and see the regret on his face.Of all Harry’s companion, Elias was the only one she could talk to. He was her close friend but his loyalty to his boss surpass everything. Even to a point of believing the betrayal that was committed towards her. Not that he had said that he had b
To receive such a warm welcome from her hometown, all her family members gathering and ready to pull her into their arm was so satisfying. She haven’t meet any of her family for the past years living abroad. Her cousins and aunt ready to drown her with stories, gossips and interesting things happenings in their life never fails to keep a smile on her fac. Well, except for today.Freakin’ Harry had to show up alongside her and seeing how happy they were to greet him; they have no idea what he did and she was sure he would want it to stay that way. Like, come on. I doubt he was willing to face the wrath of her 7 burly uncles, super affectionate and caring aunts including 12 cousins who ranges from 21 to 7 years old.Alice barely acknowledges them as she usually would since Harry decides to dampen her mood and force her to run to the comfort of her childhood room. It was her grandmother’s house after all and all room fits every child of hers until her un
While the men are having barbecue outside, Alic3 decides to head to the kitchen since her stomach won’t stop rumbling for almost half an hour. Thank God that Harry was also outside with them so she would have the evening all to herself without that men constantly breathing down her neck.As she sat on the high chairs near the a island table, a familiar face enters the kitchen and Alice sucked in deep breath as tear starts to feel her eyes.She ran towards the figure and hugged the woman who looks so much like her.“Mom...”She kissed her mother’s cheek and hugged her as tight as she could. A sense of relief can be felt all over her body as she finally embrace her mother whom she had not seen for the last four years.“My sweet baby girl, how have you been all these years? Are you healthy? Why do you look so thin? Did you eat well? Was the food in England any good?”“I’m fine, mama. T
A/N: Hi guys, I promised that I would add more on the last chapter but I decided to just leave it be. So sorry for that but I hope you'll enjoy this chapter more. God bless and happy reading:)...Coming home to the place the she once called home wasn’t easy. Everything from the foyer, tthe stairs where she was dragged down, the living room no different than a freakin art gallery where she was wrongly accused and the bedroom where she receives the best news she had ever gotten but lost in a blink of an eye immediately becomes a hell hole in her eyes.Alice had ignored Harry the entire journey home. After leaving her grandmother’s house and saying goodbye to every one of her family members, Alice quickly switches her happy expression to a sour one. More like a poker face because she literally has no mood to go home with Harry.If it wasn’t for Giselle, she would have never bowed down to Harry’s order. He would have to drag her
Of all the days she thought she would wake up in New York, today felt like shit, and the pounding headache with pain that consumes her whole body made Alice groaned loudly. It was around 7am and she got up early knowing it's Tuesday. Harry is at work and she would have the mansion all to herself so that means enough time to pack up and leave. But of course, tea. Lots and lots of tea. Something she got addicted to when she stayed in England.Going down the grand staircase, Alice can feel her eyes swollen and after seeing the mirror just now, it was red and she just shook her head. As she was about ready to go to the kitchen, her headache sends spasm to her whole body and she has to tighten her grip on the railing.Inhaling deeply, Alice decides to go to the living room and lie on the couch for a while. Seems like her plan has to be rescheduled since she can barely walk straight.How infuriating…Her bad luck seems to escalate when she hears the front door open
Going down the staircase, she stares at the tall mirror beside her with a huge Ming vase situated beside it. The thin strap of the mini blue dress definitely accentuates her small waist and ample breast. Giving just enough cleavage without making her look too slutty.Her neck was adorned with a 3 diamond drop pendant necklace and round diamond studded earrings that complete her simple yet elegant attire. She even wore simple royal blue closed flat shoes that were left on her bed, alongside her dress and jewelry as if she was going somewhere. She actually expected a high heel rather than the simple ballet-looking shoes that somehow made her almost moan with how soft and comfy it was.She decided to put on super light makeup by making sure only her brows, lashes, and lips were painted on tonight. Why she decided to wear what Harry has prepared for her was very much frustrating.It's sweet how you can force someone to eat with you by threatening to destroy their best'
Sitting on her bed, she just stares ahead and bit her lip. Brow deepens in anger at what she had to face while being in the midst of her family. After her family returns home, she quickly distances herself from Harry, running back to her room and lock herself in it. Her dress was changed into a comfy pajama with long sleeves and long pants after a long hot shower which seems to ease the pain in her muscles including her mind. It was a pastel silk pajama set with thin vertical lines she got from 'Victoria Secret' and despite the name, the pajama was ever innocent looking and totally not sexy. Something tells her that wearing a nightgown with no sleeves is dangerous when being around a Walton.WaltonThat very name radiates with the air of money and power. A very dangerous combination of anyone who wields those luxuries wrongly and from what she had heard about Harry's cousin, Clarke, she starts to have chills running down her spine.The whole Wal
Complete...."Alice my love… please just give me a chance to right the wrong I have done to you. Allow me to fix everything and prove to you that I have changed for the better. I am fucking crazy for you, baby. I fucking love you and I can't lose. I am a selfish man, yes but losing you is not an option. Not now, not ever."She hates that she was feeling the same way.Both Harry's gentle hands cup Alice's cheek and she can feel her insides melt. His warmth against hers and hot breath on her ear made her feel safe and at peace. Tis' true that even a little act of love goes a long way. So easy for her to forget everything when the man who had betrayed her in the worst way possible shows her kindness.Her finger itch to touch his so Alice cup both of his hands resting on both of her cheeks while his forehead was laying on top of hers. Closing her eyes, she lets herself embrace the feel of him until her eyes snap open.
