Donovan was avoiding her, that Valerie could tell. Ever since what happened the last two days she hasn’t seen him, nor did she get the chance to tell him about changing her work routine and let her work in the maid quarters. He’s not in his room anytime she goes there to clean it, and he has been skipping breakfast which she didn't mind. As long as this was going to be her new routine, she won’t mind if he decides not to come back to the house anymore. So, not only was she relieved in these past days that she hasn’t seen him, her mind has been calm about what has happened. Although, there’s been no information about Marco, since he too hasn’t been coming to the house. It still bothered her because she wanted to know if he was okay. What if he’s dead? That has been the question on her mind since two days ago. Things have been quiet for her. Yet, there didn't seem to be any unusual movement or any latest gossip from the maids about what happened. Although, she couldn’t know if anyth
Marco groaned slightly as he opened his eyes to connect with familiar gray walls, he’s back at his villa but he was sure that this wasn’t where he was before.He vividly remembered having his father over here, he had walked out on his old man because he couldn’t take what it was that he was offering to him. Then he met Jolene.At the mention of her name, Marco sat up from his bed instantly which made him whimper in pain because he stressed his wounded shoulder. The doctor has advised that he avoids any strenuous activities for the moment, just until his shoulder is fully healed but it couldn’t be helped that he barely remembers that he had a gunshot wound on his shoulder.He wondered how Jolene still remembered her way back here, since the last time she was here he barely gave her time to know where exactly he took her.Smart ass!Marco said, but he was surprised that Jolene didn’t take him to her father. Frankly speaking, this was the perfect time, no, this was an opportunity that sh
“Sir, please have mercy.” Eve cried , kneeling in front of Mr.B. Unfortunately, she wasn’t able to do what he had asked of her, to get the evidence that would help him get rid of his opposition, Mr.H.But it seemed like Mr. H, knew what was going on, after spending two good weeks at his side she wasn’t able to get what was ordered of her. If anything, Mr. H has laughed right in front of her face the moment she tried seducing her way through his life. She tried using the same tactics that Pandora used on both men, but Mr. H, disgraced her for ruining his reputation as a married man, and in turn, told her to relay the message back to her master, B, that it won’t be so easy to get rid of him.“How many days did i gave you?” Mr. B asked, with a calm expression while using a rag to clean the sword that has been his most prized possession that he had in his office.She too has seen him use it on many others that deserved punishment, but she didn’t believe that a day would come when she wo
Vanessa stared at him with a binocular in hand from the other building. He was there just like they spoke on the phone. Reporter Kim has kept to his word to meet her, but she couldn’t take chances as to not take extra caution before meeting him.After all, there’s a reason why he’s the highest paying journalist in the state at the moment. She took up her phone and called him.“I’m here just like we talked about.” Reporter Kim said over the phone, he was just doing his job like any journalist would do until he received an email from an anonymous source, that told him that she has important information to give him about the truth behind the Castillio family, and their link to the deadly crime organization called the Blacksmiths.At first, he concluded that it was just a spam, he wasn’t new to his job, and knew that pranksters were everywhere. Yet, it wasn’t everyday that you would see someone brave enough to speak against the Castillo Family.So, that’s why he took the risk to come out
Relief swept through Donovan when he saw Marco, at least he’s not dead. He didn’t bother calling him again after many failed attempts to reach him, which is why he has no other option than to come meet him himself. After all, they had a lot to talk about but from the look of things, it’s obvious that Marco doesn’t want to see him. This wasn’t the moment he went all bossy on him. This man was the only closest person to whom he called a friend , apart from his younger brother. He has always done everything he has ordered him to do without questioning him about that, he respected him for that and also for putting up with his bitter character where others failed to warm up to him, even from when he was at a young age he has only been the one and loyal friend he has. “How’s your shoulder?” He asked, ignoring his stupid statement asking him about why he’s here when he already knows the answer to that. Marco scoffed at his fake concern for him. It was at this moment that everything his fat
“As you all know that tonight is going to be a busy night. I will advise you all to be on your best behavior and avoid making mistakes you all might take your life. Trust me, you don’t want to get on the bad side of the big bosses.” Lucy advised the maids as they were all lined up. It was the very first time more of them were getting to see the full family assembly here, and Lucy was given the order to make sure that things were in order among the maids that were working for Donovan. The maids that were being sent from the family house has all left after helping out in the morning, giving room for the others that were stationed here. Everyone was ecstatic to finally see the big bosses, the one who calls the shots. Whereas, the few others who are familiar with this didn't act like there was anything much about the whole familiar meeting up. But it wasn’t the same for Lucy, she was more excited than anyone that one might mistake this night to be her engagement party. For someone who
He didn't want to be back here, at least for the moment but in order to have one last dinner appointment with the whole family before Daisy leaves, had him here in the exact place where he said that he won’t be coming until he’s sorted himself out.Everyone was seated around the dining table, thankfully Marco and his father were present too so he wasn’t bothered to be the only person to entertain his family. Although, Marco’s father was glaring at him which he understood the reason for that, but he wasn’t bothered about him.If anything, anyone bearing grudges against him right now, was wasting his energy since the only person that he knew that he offended, who was on his mind all day is her, Valerie. Yet, he didn’t see her yet, she was not among the maids that was attending to his parents.“Is everything alright, son?” Salvatore asked Donovan, breaking him from his line of thoughts as he looked at his grandfather and forced a smile on his face, as to not alert him that he was being b
“You need to calm down first, Scott. Our daughter isn’t a child anymore.” Mrs Harris said trying to calm her angry husband, who was threatening to bring down this house down in rage over Jolene’s nonchalant behavior since yesterday.Apparently, he had arrived home last night with the plan to break the news of him being transferred to the city to his family, but Jolene wasn’t back home yet from work and it made him worried that she was taking such late night shifts.Even when he called her that night and offered her a ride back home, she declined his help and he understood what she was trying to do. She didn't want to live in fear anymore after the stalking incident, yet it was only him who knew how serious things were and had kept both her and her mother in the dark but that’s because of their safety.Jolene doesn’t know who these people are, and neither could he explain too since he hasn’t had a one on one experience with them. Vanessa has only been the person, who has given him a he
