Why do I find the both of them cute? What’s your opinion on this?
He was going to do it.He was going to kiss her.With that in mind Jolene didn't know what to do. Irrespective of what this crazy man has done to her best friends, she couldn't help but be drawn to him.American men are handsome, but Italian men are way hotter and this dude was stirring something inside of her, feelings that she didn't want to act upon.Valerie.Remember Valerie.She said to herself, so as Marco bent down to claim her lips with the tension in the room accelerating. Jolene has to ruin the fun by turning her head to the side pushing him away lightly.“I need to go..back home.” She said turning to leave but he dragged her back to meet his face.“Marco.” He said, as she scrunched her face in confusion not quite getting what he was trying to say, until she figured out that he was telling her his name.Marco.He didn't look like a Marco kind of guy, yet, she didn't want to question if he was lying to her or not, because at this point he's still going to find his way back t
The following morning being Saturday, Valerie didn’t want to give Donovan the initiative that she was challenging him on the new job that he assigned her. After having the rules given to her by the assistant head of house, since Grace was still recuperating at the hospital which didn't bother her anymore. She asked for it. Valerie has to clean up Donovan’s room, when she arrived she noticed that he wasn’t in his room so the stress of waking him up by six was lifted off her shoulder. It sounded ridiculous that not only was she made his personal maid, the part in which she has to wake him up, a full grown up like him by six was an insult. Chad wakes up without her having to do that for him. So, she figured out that Donovan was either trying to get a reaction out of her, one that she knew would cut off every liberty Chad has now, which won’t ever happen. At least, she has to put up with whatever he does to her until she figures out a perfect escape plan and route, one that won’t end
“What the hell is going on here!!” Donovan's thunderous voice shook the whole building, as the maids who seemed to be eavesdropping scattered for safety, they were no longer interested in knowing the outcome, because Donovan's angry stare wasn't something pleasant to see. While the few who were hard hearted stayed behind to see the end of the unfolding drama, the curiosity that took upon everyone present, including Marco who seemed to have a satisfied smirk on his face, as if he was anticipating for this, to know what and how exactly Donovan is going to act towards the young lady, who seemed to be changing his mindset ever since she arrived. Marco didn't have any problem with him that he didn't hurt the little boy, her nephew.Since, he's too pussy to do that based on his childhood traumas, which was why he's here. To help do whatever it was that he couldn't do, yet, without talking things out with him he gives the Blacksmith’ sister a house and job. Who will believe that she isn't
Valerie stood outside his room door holding the tray of food, she was literally shaking as a result of what had gone down moments ago. Donovan didn’t have a heart, that she just confirmed that. If he did, he wouldn't have hurt Marco, the two are more like brothers than mere acquaintances from what she has heard from the maids. Although, what Marco did was uncalled for, yet she still felt pity for him. Not only was he disgraced right in front of everyone. It never really occurred to him that Donovan would end up doing him like that. Couldn’t they have just settled things amicably without using violence? Valerie hated violence, that has always been her last resolve for anything yet she didn't want to resolve using that, whenever peaceful talks didn't go through. Now, Marco's issues have been settled, but from the looks of things it won’t get any easier for her here. While bringing Donovan’s breakfast, she could hear the gossip of the maids. Some accused her of sleeping with him jus
“Strip.”When Valerie heard him say that, she felt all the hair on her body stand up. Goosebumps lattered her whole body the moment she looked right into his eyes to see that he wasn’t joking. He meant what he said.Donovan pushed her away to give her space to do as she was instructed, but knowing fully well that she would want to challenge him on what he just ordered her to do.He took out his gun from the back of his pants, the very same gun that he has used on Marco. It made her move away and lost her step which made her fall on his bed, and advanced backwards, an attempt to move away from him.But what she failed to realize is that as long as she’s staying here in his house, there’s no place for her to hide because he will always find her. She caused this upon herself, always trying to challenge him on literally everything. Had it been that he didn't find her useful, he would have had Marco kill her at that point in the sitting room.She doesn’t deserve his pity if her plan was
“Jolene, honey. Are you okay?” Mrs. Harris asked her daughter who had been picking at her food, since they were having breakfast. She had barely eaten anything and all she did was to stare at her phone.“Yes, mom. I’m fine.” Jolene said with a smile to keep her mother off her neck. She understands that her mother was trying to look out for her, but she could be annoying sometimes.Jolene was frustrated. She hasn’t seen nor heard from Marco since last night after they argued. He didn't come back to the room and had had his chauffeur drop her off this early morning instead, which ruined her chance of asking him further about Valerie and Chad.The most frustrating part of all this, is that she couldn’t get to him through the number that he has always called her with. From the very first day that he texted her with it, she’s been unable to call him without the line saying that the number doesn’t exist. Yet, he calls her with it.It was obvious that he had something to do with it, of cour
For the rest of the day Valerie wasn’t herself, she was more of a lifeless human as she helped around to clean the house. She couldn’t forget, no matter how much she tried, her mind would always go back to what happened in Donovan’s room in the morning.What pissed her off the most, was how her body reacted when he sweet talked her into doing what he wanted. She’s slowly losing her mind been here, and if it continues this way she’s going to end up being broken, physically, mentally and psychologically.Yet the young lady didn't want to give herself the false hope that help was coming. The plan about coaxing up to Donovan and playing his games with him just to earn his trust, died the moment he treated her like a worthless human.He treated her like she was some hoe that he picked up from the street, which helped prove to her that if she was to find her way out of here with the plan she initially had in mind, she has to be ready to sacrifice some few factors.She cannot lie or act to s
He fucked up.Donovan knew that.From the very moment he kept her alive and didn’t put a bullet in between that stunning eyes of hers, to taking her out of the dungeon. As well as to give her and her nephew a home, things got complicated.It went out of his control when he had her working as a maid, wearing the same costume as the others. Yet, in his twenty seven years of his life, he didn't know that he could ever find a maid sexy. Especially, that being the sister of the woman he wants to gun down.His father didn’t raise him up to be soft, nor did he raise him up with the fatherly care for him to actually have human empathy and normal human feelings. No, he wasn’t raised that way. The only thing that mattered was his business and his family.He only lived for the lifestyle that he swore into, women and feelings weren’t his thing. In his world, it is kill or he killed. It was more of a survival of the fittest and he has remained at the top of the food chain for a long time, and that
Donovan stood at the edge of the bed with a cigarette in his hand, staring at his baby girl while she slept.He was not able to sleep not after he had way too many problems that needed his attention.He didn't later punish Valerie from trying to run away, since he figured out that he’s too hard on her, and that’s why she’s trying to run from him.He could avoid her running away from him, if he was too soft on her. But he wasn’t, all this time he just forced her to do what he wanted without thinking of what she might want. At first, her opinion didn’t matter to him since her only part to play was to be submissive to him.Yet, despite being hard on her and using the drugs the doctor has given to him. He realized that he could have an easier approach about keeping her to him, if he was a gentleman for her.He didn't know how he can do that. Hence, his entire life wasn’t filled with love, he only loved and treated her the way he understood but was wrong. But now he regrets it all.He wants
Alberto stepped out of his car the moment he arrived at his house, only to find out that he wasn’t alone. He felt a cold substance at the back of his head, before he heard a click then an unfamiliar voice.“I wouldn't do that if i were you.” The intruder said, which halted him from bringing out his gun from his back, when he saw two, three more men come out of his penthouse pointing guns at him.Then Angelo showed his face which made him raise his brow in question, since he didn't know what sort of welcome back was that, until it all clicked together for him.Donovan has told him about what the assassin did to Marco, that wouldn’t guarantee the ill treatment he was receiving now. Unless..He looked up at Angelo to see that there was no single smile on his face, if anything the look on his face reminded him of his when he got the call from the assassin that she has his son.Maria told him about his relationship with her?He couldn't be so sure yet. So, he acted like he didn't have any
“You shouldn’t have come in yet. The boss has given you enough rest time, Scott.” Paul said the moment he walked into the office to find Detective Harris already arranging his desk.He didn't look like he was the same person that was in coma for two weeks, nor did he look like he still needed a rest from what had gone on. But yet, he should have stayed at home until his leave was over. But who was he to tell Scott Harris what to do?“Thanks for the concern, but I’m done staying at home like I’m some pregnant chick. Moreover, there’s still a lot to be done like catching Donovan Castillo and Vanessa Blackfield.”Detective Harris said, listing everything that needed to be done.No!That he needed to do, and that was where the problem was. This was the same attitude that he exhibited that made him nearly lose his life. Detective Harris has made it his priority that he doesn’t care if he gets hurt, all he wants is to get the Castillo family behind bars.Which was something that he knew even
The door to the warehouse was opened and Marco was forced to raise his head up, as a result of the tiredness that came as a result of being beaten to a pulp. The room was a little bit dark, yet he still need to know who exactly had decided to come see him after leaving him thirsty, to the point that he will do anything just to have a cup of water.Yet, he tried to be strong, because he knew that Donovan was coming for him.Although he knew that by now Donovan would have been able to track his location, he didn’t raise his hope high that he would be willing to give up Valerie. The man was totally in love with her, and he understood the pain that will come if he does what Vanessa wants.Since he was locked up after taken a good beating by Vanessa’s men, who had done everything possible for him to give out the location of where exactly Donovan was keeping Valerie.All he could think of was Jolene.He had no idea if he will be walking out of this alive, but if he wasn’t, all he wished for
Valerie woke up as a result of the continuous shuffling and voices that she heard, voices that seemed familiar until she finally opened her eyes to see that the room she was in was messed up.Also, Donovan was yelling at someone on the phone and that was what has made her sit up from the bed, she hasn’t seen him act this way before, she has never seen him so angry or has she?Valerie couldn’t remember, but she knew that this wasn’t the first time that she had seen him this way, but it’s just her memory that was failing her. She has been forgetting a lot of things lately, and she was bothered about itThere was nothing pleasant about her past to remember, although she had no idea what her past was like, and the fact that she couldn’t do anything like telling Donovan about it, without him being angry about it, made her not bring it up.The fear she has for him was the beginning of wisdom for her to know that as long as she was on his good side, that he will treat her like a queen. All s
Maria looked down at her wrist watch to see that she’s been here for a good thirty minutes, yet she wasn’t giving up. It was so obvious that after her last meetup with Donovan, he was serious about the both of them not seeing each other any longer.Yet, from the urgency in her tone while she typed that message to him, it was only wise for him to know that she has something important to tell him about, but from the look of things it seems that he would rather watch Pandora kill his best friend, rather than to give her a listening ear.She rubbed her hands nervously to the point that it became so sweaty, and she didn't even want to talk about the part where her heart was beating irregularly as a result of her feeling anxious, about what the outcome of this meeting would turn to once she tells him everything starting from the beginning.“Ma’am.”Maria backed out of her thoughts to look at Cassy, who was standing in front of her holding her blazer. It was freezing cold out here, and for t
“So, you are trying to tell me that Alberto has been working for Maria all these while?” Mr. Salvatore asked for the second time, while his secretary replied back as best as he can as if the evidence wasn’t there right in front of him, with tbe photos containing pictures of Alberto and Maria.There were some pictures of them too on a business trip, as well as them going out on a date at a fancy restaurant. Truly, the pictures didn’t do any justice to try to prove that it was photoshopped.Al lot of misfortunes has befallen his business and family’s unity which was why Salvatore Castillo, had asked his secretary to keep an eye on every single person in the family, and out of all of them, Alberto was the scapegoat that has been working along with that woman, all these time!It was obvious that his son didn't have any idea of what’s going on, or did he? No! Salvatore knew that Angelo can be anything else but not stupid.He won’t protect his best friend at the cost of his own family. So,
“Miss.Jolene Harris?” The nurse called from the door, which broke Jolene out of her thoughts, to look at her mother who haven’t spoken to her, after letting her know about her past entanglement with Marco.She hasn’t made her father knkw anything about it, but the young lady didjt know how long her mother will be willing to keep her secret, if it’s positive that she’s pregnant.The choice of abortion is not an option, but wjtg the way her mother was ti g so far scaged her, she doesn’t want to abort the child, what sort of mother will she be to kill her own child despite the father being a dead rat.Her mother was angry and disappointed, of there was a y sophisticated way of explaining the look on her mothers face, after she find her of Marco, she couldn’t explain.Jolene felt bad.She regrets everything.Meeting Marco?Allowing him to get into her head?Him using her only ti dump her afterwards after getting what he wanted?It’s all her fault!Yet, she couldn’t hear the thoughts of he
Maria was inside her office signing important documents that needed her attention, before her door was slammed open and in walked an angry Alberto with her secretary, Cassy, rushing behind him.“Ma, I tried to stop him.” Cassy said, going to touch Alberto but Maria raised her up which stopped her from doing what she was about to do.The look on Alberto’s face said it all? He was clearly not in a good mood, but that doesn’t mean that he’s supposed to do anything he likes because they were business partners.He ought to show his respect as long as he’s here in her office, but of course that was something people like him, mafia men didn’t understand.“It’s okay, Cassy. Send in some refreshments.” Maria said, as Cassy looked at Alberto one more time.The look in her eyes said that she didn't trust him not to harm her madam, which Maria understands that she will be waiting outside with the security. They will all be on standby in case Alberto does anything silly.But Maria wasn’t scared of
