“Come up Valeria, pick up the call and put it on speaker” Jason had a smirk on his face. She was not going to hesitate since he was standing next to her and would become suspicious of her if she decided to ignore the call, her heart racing. David informed her that he was going to call her and yet remained silent since She was dying to hear her voice so she cannot just object. “Of course” Valeria quickly picks up the call as Jason listens in.“Hello” She trembled, hoping that he would not talk, it was David. He was the one calling; he was the only calling without a caller ID.When he wasn’t saying a word, she paused and glanced up at Jason, he was not satisfied. He was suspecting that it wasn’t Lucio calling him and it was someone else but he couldn’t confirm his suspicion since David remained silent on the other end and did not bother speaking up which only calmed my nerves and so I ended the call. “Why were you in a haste to end the call?”“There was no one speaking up from the ot
Lisa still couldn’t get Lucio to open up his feelings and tell her why he was drifting away from her. Everything was falling apart and there was nothing she could do to save her relationship with him. It has gotten so bad that he doesn’t say a word to her when he gets back home and stays locked up in his bedroom. She moved into her room to give him space but Lucio has taken advantage of the situation and drifted further away from her.At work he will only call up her line to get her into his office and when she comes around, he doesn’t bother glancing at her while she will stare at him hoping that he will say something, anything at all was fine by him but Lucio was cold and stern towards her. He shouts at her at any single mistake and other times acts as if she was nonexistent. Lisa has been worried and has tried so many times to reach out to him but it always ends in the same argument, he was always chasing her away and that hurt a lot. She has never been so lost and confused in her
"Jason, you are stepping out of line" That was the only thing that Lucio could do at that moment. He was trying to protect Valeria even though Jason was not telling a lie. Somehow he figured it out and he wondered how. Lisa will be the last person who will tell Jason and it wasn't him as well. No one knows David was in his apartment since he had come disguised as a maintenance company."Out of line? You think I am out of Lucio? I am not in line, I know he slept with Valeria probably after your meeting. She left the house for a meeting and arrived late Lucio""The meeting finished very late and it rained, there was traffic on the road and you know it so don't belittle her" Lucio was hell bent on protecting her until the very end. If Jason figures it out, this might be the end of Valeria then the promise that he made to Lisa will be in vain. Lisa, when that name shot through his mind, he knew he had to push it away else he would not be able to focus on what was happening right in front
When Lisa locked eyes with the woman who wanted the man that she was in love with and his mother was in support. She became jealous and disheartened as Sophia Williams stood on the last floor, a smirk dancing on her lips. Lisa wished she could wipe that stupid smirk off her face then she wouldn't hesitate. This woman was unbelievable and cannot seem to get it that Lucio Delevingne was not Interested in her. Turning towards her, Lisa stomped her feet on the ground as she jolted closer to her."What are you doing here?'"You are in no place to ask me any question, just so you are forgetting you are just his secretary and not his wife"Lisa wanted to admit it but kept silent. Lucio was acting very strange, she wasn't sure the reason for it. Admitting to Sophia that she was going to be his wife when their relationship was almost falling apart felt stupid. Lucio was becoming impossible so she wouldn't want to claim to have worn the crown only to have it taken away from her very soon.That
Sophia was glad to see that when she rushed out of Lucio Delevonte's office, Lisa was not sitting at her desk as she used to. Taking that as her cue to get far away in order to hide her shame, she fled as much as her feet could carry her. When Lisa walked back into her desk, her heart beat pulsated as she glanced at his door. Was he still with her? She thought. This was the last time he was going to treat her like some garbage. She was trying to reach out to him, to tell him all about her plans for them to be one. She couldn't still believe that he was distancing himself from her. If he wants a break up he can just say the word and she will understand. She was going to survive though she will never fall in love with another man. This was going to be the last that she gives her heart to a man only for it to be shattered. Glancing at his door, she did not even stop to think that she was with another woman, Lisa walked into his office. He was alone and so the anger blazing through her e
"David" Lisa whispered, glancing at David, realizing that Victoria had the same look on her face. Right there she had a feeling that maybe they might know each and she was missing each other."You two know each other?""The thing is… I…" Victoria glanced around, she couldn't believe that she would get to see David again after all this time. He has never crossed her mind but she has never forgotten about that one moment with him either. That moment opened her eyes and made her stand up to Angelo. If it hadn't been for her bravery then perhaps this relationship with Angelo would never have worked. Clarissa will still be hovering around him and she will still be kicked aside like some trash."Do you two know each other?" Lisa asked again wondering why they were so silent and staring at each other as if they had never seen each other in such a long time. "What are you talking about? We do not…""Yes we know each other" David was quick to say, Lisa already caught on to them, it will be p
When Valeria returned from work that day, she was caught up in the rain since she had to meet up with Lucio in his office. David wasn't there and so she had no reason to meet up with him outside the restaurant. Lucio was still his usual self and wouldn't tell Valeria what was wrong with him even though she pressed so hard on him to tell her. As Valeria stepped right into her apartment, anger seeped through her, she wanted to stop returning to this house but there was nothing that she could do. She is still married to Jason and David hasn't been able to find a way for her to divorce him so that her father won't end up getting hurt. They haven't spoken about the case and Lucio had not told her anything even when she asked. She was desperate, every day she had to return back to him was hell yet she had to contend with it. The other day he had taken her out to dinner despite her objections. Jason never believed her when she admitted to him that she was sick and needed to take care of he
Lucio was sitting in a cafe waiting for his cousin to finally arrive. These past few days have been hell for him and Lisa. She finally admitted that she wasn't going to ask him what was wrong with him again and gas stayed away from him. Lisa was a woman of her world, since he was acting indifferent towards her and wasn't speaking to her, Lisa has decided to stay on her own, devoting her attention to caring about him and protecting him. Her Silence and withdrawal from him was killing him as well even though he will never admit it at least not to Lisa. The daughter of the man that he despised the most now. "Lucio"He does not need to turn around to know that his cousin was standing behind him. He has been so carried away that he didn't even realize that he had arrived and was standing behind him."What can I get you?""You don't have to worry about me Man and tell me what it is, you sounded urgent on the phone"Lowering his coffee on the table, he takes a sip of the hot black coffee."
