"Talk to me Mother"Patricia tucks a strand of hair behind her ear. "Is nothing much just when I signed that document with Angelo, he made it clear that he disapproves of you wearing skimpy outfits and I don't want anything to happen to you since you are living with him" Patricia was concerned and that melted Victoria's heart. Her mother has always been a difficult woman but after the situation with Valerie, she was a completely different woman, she was loving and caring just like her father and she just loved that about her. If her mother had been caring when they were little girls, Victoria was certain they would have grown up being best of friends but her mother wasn't nice at all. She was mean, rude, ruthless and wicked, she was strict with them and often mistreated them by making them do things they hated to do. "Don't worry mother, nothing is going to happen""Are you sure about that?""Or course you don't have to worry about Angelo besides he is not going to see me" Victoria
Victoria doesn't need to turn around to put a name to that familiar voice, she could recognise it anywhere."What are you doing here?" "I should be the one asking you if Angelo knows about your affair with his cousin?""You are out of your mind" Victoria glared at the annoying woman."You are the one who decided to sink her fangs into my man, you should have traded carefully""Really? Your man? You think Angelo is your just because you were screwing him" Victoria has had enough of Clarissa and her demanding nature, always acting like Angelo's woman when she was nothing but a bed mate. She was the one who made herself cheap by sleeping with Angelo. "Shut your mouth! Angelo was mine before you came around and decided to take him away from me, I hate you for taking him away from me but rest assured that you will never be happy" "Is that a threat?" She arched up her brow at Clarissa. The look in Clarissa's eyes was frightening but then it couldn't scare Victoria. She was tired of being
Clarissa was rushing out of the restaurant when she bumped into Lucio and Lisa, she locked eyes with Lucio and glared at him. As if sensing the familiarity between them, Lisa looks at Clarissa."Let's go" He holds her hand walking past Clarissa entering the restaurant. "Who was that woman?""My brother's secretary, she's sleeping with him with hopes that he will get married to her but Angelo is not in love with her""So she is just like me" Lisa halts and looks at him, she was feeling the same way as Clarissa was feeling. "What are you saying? You are nothing like her""How am I not like her? She is sleeping with your brother and I happened to have sex with you""We made love" Lucio was furious she was comparing herself to Clarissa. They may have the same job but they were not alike, unlike Clarissa who was always going around trying to seduce Angelo, Lisa was not desperate and didn't try to make him notice her. She even avoided him like a plague and despite the fact that they were
"Do you want to know the truth?""Yes I do""Of course I have suspected Jason but then Valerie denied everything so what do you want me to do?" "Get to the bottom of it all""And do you honestly take me for a fool Lisa? Of course I am going to get to the bottom of everything" Lucio paused as the waiter walked up to their table to take their order and depart."What exactly do you plan to do?""I already Jason out for a drink"Lisa chuckles. She had thought Lucio was smarter than this. "What exactly are you thinking? That he will tell the truth right there, don't deceive yourself because he is never telling the truth""What?""Jason Brown is never telling the truth so what better plan do you have?""I'm not a fool Lisa, of course I am aware that he may lie just as he did the other day but don't even think that I won't observe his body language""Is that all?" Lisa was not happy nor impressed, she was hoping that he would say something else that would make her baffled and not the other
Realizing that the bodyguard was right behind them, Lisa closes her mouth, her gaze never dropping from Valerie. She realized what was happening and closed her mouth as well. They would be more comfortable without the bodyguard around but there was nothing she could do, the only thing she could do was stay away from men so as not to get reported. When they entered the restaurant, the bodyguard waited outside the restaurant, he couldn't follow them into the restaurant so as not to scare the other customers who had come to dine and wine. "What is it that you want to have?" Lisa asked as she picked up the menu. Valerie wasn't really that hungry; she was happy to be away from the eyes of her bodyguards. "Thank you""For what?""For being here and coming to take me out, I wouldn't have had the time to go for lunch. No I wouldn't had been allowed to go out for lunch""Does Jason deny you the right to go out?""He hates it when I go out and I don't want to get into any problems, what I wa
"Valerie!" Jason yelled as he stood by the door glaring at his wife. "What are you doing here?" Lisa was surprised to see Jason standing by the door looking like he was ready to murder someone. "Get away from my wife!" Jason was furious. Striding towards Valerie, Jason strides a hard slap on her cheek and she gasps. "What is wrong with you?" Lisa was furious."Stay out of this!""Are you crazy?""I should be the one asking you that""Valerie…" Lisa tries to talk to Valerie but Jason stands in front of him. "Stay away from my wife""How dare you hurt her in front of me? Have you lost your mind?""Shut your mouth" He pushed Lisa backward and she pushed him back causing him to stumble backward almost falling to the ground when Valerie quickly rushed over and stepped right in between them before he hurt Lisa. "That's enough please" Valerie was pleading with Lisa to let it go but she was furious and ready to fight with Jason. Lisa wasn't surprised to see Jason hit her but she was faze
"Talk to me Valerie" David was desperate to hear what she had to say but Lisa already had in mind that she was going to choose to stay with her husband. It will be another heartbreak for David but Valerie was only trying to protect her family, especially her father. "Valerie is never going to choose you"Her eyes became wet and her heart squeezed as she stared into David's eyes, he stared right back at her, the way he was looking at her made her heart melt but then Valerie knew she couldn't get carried away. Choosing to go with David and Lisa was like signing over her life to the devil, Jason was going to go out of control and he was going to make her suffer by sending her father to jail. She couldn't bear the thought of her father being behind bars, it would kill her."You can both leave because Valerie will not go with you""We should leave" Lisa whispers, she doesn't want David to make a fool of himself. Valerie wasn't going to go with them, she was glad they had saved her from Ja
Lucio was sipping a glass of whiskey in the living room as a lot of things ran through his mind. He had gone to David's apartment to talk to him but was disappointed when he found out David was not around. His neighbor had told him that he barely slept in the house and Lucio had gone around looking for him. When he couldn't find David and wasn't able to get a hold of him, he had tried calling Lisa but then she wasn't picking up her call. The whole drama with Jason and Valerie was eating him up and he knew he had to do something about it. Valerie was his friend as well and though she may have been annoying in the past, he still loved her and wanted her to be happy. Jason was also his friend and he also wanted him to be happy but there was something about his dear friend Jason that made him curious. There was more to him than what he was saying. Even though he didn't want to admit it, Lucio was restless, he had a feeling that perhaps his brother and Lisa weren't far from what he had se
After the evaluation was done at the law firm, Lucio Delevonte knew that his enemies were angry since they had failed in their assassination attempts during the first evaluation. Another evaluation was going to be carried out in the firm and they will come together as usual to form another plan to take him out of the picture but first they needed to take the one who keeps protecting out of the picture and that was Lisa. His enemies meticulously plan the attack and this time Lisa is taken unaware as the fire breaks in the firm, she was trapped as everyone else had gone out of the building but she was working on some document and so she stayed back. As the fire spreads quicker than expected Lisa couldn't get to the stairs nor could she shift into something else. The camera was on so she couldn't expose Lucio. Deep down she already knew that it was his enemies who were doing this yet she didn't think so as she was running around trying to get away. However, just when she was giving
When David opened the door, he was surprised to see Valeria standing at his doorstep. She was crying and looking at him pitifully and just engulfed her without having to ask her what was going on with her."Are you alright? Of course you are not alright" holding her he leads her into his apartment, helping her recline back to the couch. He couldn't tell what was wrong with her and didn't know if he should ask her. All he wanted was for her to be alright and for him to get back with her. David loves her ever since she was mad at him and wanted nothing more to do with him, he stayed back home while trying to find out other things he can do in order for him to earn her forgiveness."I slept with Jason" She stated that Lisa and Lucio must have kept that away from David. "He is your husband" He was hurt but it was pointless. They were married so it was only right that she fulfills her duty."No you don't understand I was mad at you for what you did and so I wanted to get back at you so th
Jason walked around his house, the love of his life had departed and wasn't coming back to him, and as if that wasn't enough, she was divorcing him. That was the text message her lawyer sent to him, he has tried to talk to her but has failed so many times. Valeria was not going to talk to him after discovering that she slept with Sophia. That was the last person she imagined he would ever cheat on her with. Not that she thought he would ever cheat on , she thought that with the way he professed his love for her she was the only one that he was in love with. As memories of Valeria shot through his head, he felt like dying, he couldn't fathom how it got to this point, they were happily planning their move, she was finally starting to feel something for him after all these years. Anger simmered through him as he stared at the reflection of himself through the big mirror. His woman was gone, the house just didn't feel empty, it was empty and the only thing he could do was walk around whi
As Sophia stepped out of her , she walked toward the black tinted Suv and knocked on the window which only made Lucio step out of his car, as she locked eyes with him, shs shot a smile at him but he frowned at her, the nerve at this woman to smile at him as if the were friends. He thought“Lucio” She whispered, staring into his eyes hoping that he would look at her with the same emotions that he used to but lucio could never, he wasn't in love and doesn't want to have anything to do with her.“Have you told her?” She nodded her head, the smile not parting from her face. “Valeria knows that i slept with Jason, she must be on her way to confront him”He clenched his jaw since Jason was playing a dirty game he decided to give him a taste of his medicine. When he found out that his cousin slept with Sophia, he realized that Jason might not be an exception Sophia was always fond of him when they were in a relationship. He had to confront Sophia, at first she tried to deny it all but when
The past few days have been hectic at the company as she had a lot to do so that she will be able to move her company to LA. Jason was bringing over his lawyers to the house for her to meet with them and she had come to work trying to sort out so many things.Ever since the visit by her mother with Lisa and Lucio, Jason was hellbent on proving to her that he was the right one and that is what made her stay with him. Jason was a good man if he wasn't consumed by jealousy and wasn't suspicious of her having other things to do with other men even when she wasn't doing anything. Picking up a document a lot of emotions ran through her eyes as she stared at Lucio's name on the papers, she was going to miss having anything to do with him but this was the only way she can forget David and not think about him. He hurt her and she hurt him back, they were never meant to be. She thought as she lowered down the document when a soft knock came on the door. Lifting up her eyes to the door, Sophia
Sophia William was around in her office, she was pained by everything that was happening in her life. On the one hand, she was about to lose the man that she was in love with, and on the other hand she was mad at Valeria Carnegie for making Lucio hate her even more, now that he doesn't want to see her shadow or want to have anything to do with him. Anger seeped through him as she stared at her reflection in the mirror, she ran her Index finger up her jawline when Ingrid Williams entered the room."Breakfast is ready honey""I already told the lady that I am not hungry""Your father is very worried about you, you should have something to eat""No Mother you don't have to be worried about me, I am not just hungry that's all""You didn't have dinner with us and now breakfast tell me what's going on because I am very worried about you" Her mother was not about to give up as she plopped down on her bed while staring at her this whole time as Sophia sobs. The pain in her heart was excrucia
Walking into the living room with Lucio right behind him, Lisa tosses her bag on the couch and glares at Lucio."I know you are mad at me but you should please hear me out""Hear what out, you heard Valeria in there she is planning to leave with him, we could have stopped her""Yes, I heard her, which is what I had to do, how exactly are you planning to get her out of this marriage? You are not planning to abduct her, are you?" "No" Lisa blinked her eyes. She already knows that he had a point yet she couldn't bring herself to accept that truth. She was still mad at him for doing what he did to her. He broke his heart and now her mind that during the evaluation in the next couple of days, she was going to give her best."Then what would have been the plan? No one knows that her mind has changed and to think that she willingly gave herself to Jason" He was disgusted at the memory. "Valeria is making a big mistake here and you know it""Yes I know but I don't get why she will choose to
Valeria wipes the tears trying to fall on her cheeks."I rekindled our vows the other night by giving myself to him"While Lisa shook her head, Lucio was disappointed by her actions. He never expected she would dare do such a thing after she professed her love to David. He let them into his house and concealed their secret. Anger seeped through Patricia as she landed a hard slap on her cheek. "You despicable slut" She was furious.Lisa was surprised by her action, Patricia has always been fond of her daughter since she took the steps to get married to Jason and has been looking for ways to get her out of this hellish marriage. Never did she think that her daughter would sell herself so cheap to anyone, much more to the same man who has done nothing else but hurt her since the first day that they met. "Don't you dare– " Jason was furious but Valeria was quick to cut him off by putting her hands on his chest calming him down but the motion did little to calm his nerves. Her actions s
"Valeria" Patricia was heartbroken by her actions and thought she was doing this because he was threatening her. "You don't have to worry about anything, the lawyers are working on it and you can get a divorce from him""I don't want a divorce from Jason"Lucio's eyes widened as he looked at his childhood friend. Lisa equally did not see this coming and thought that she was bluffing but she wasn't at all. The look in her eyes was stern as she went to stand next to a grinning Jason."Yeah! Valeria, what are you saying? Have you forgotten what you wanted? You are not with Jason, you said those words to me" Lucio was confused. "I love my friend but is time to set things right and for you to be happy""I am happy" She was fighting hard not to let the tears fall on her cheeks. "You should all go""What?" Lisa scoffed. This was not her friend talking, this was someone else. This was not the person who wanted nothing more than to get away from Jason. Now she seems to be acting so differently
