Zane Creed~
Isn’t it funny how things can suddenly turn in your favor when a few hours back, it was all shitty for you?
I looked at the card on the table, and a sly smirk made its way to my lips as I looked at it. She couldn’t have been more stupid about this. I mean, how could she miss this.
Lorraine definitely didn’t teach her kids how to stay off others' business; now, they would have to deal with it. Well, they have a father who would do anything to help them. The best father indeed.
I scoffed as I unbuttoned my jacket. Eugene apparently spent the night in the family house and is still there because of how faint he feels.
I could
Elizabeth Walters~ How am I supposed to explain this? I was offered money on a platter of gold and I rejected it. I stomped my feet repeatedly on the ground, pinching my cheeks as hard as I could. Ah! What have you done! I thought to myself. How could I have been so stupid to not collect that money. I mean how? I was only thinking about being a good person and beat the allegations of being a gold digger and what’s not but right now. I can only think of, why? Why i didn’t collect the money when I should. I mean, I have so many expenses and than money would have cleared every single one of them. Do I even have to act so self righteous at times? I mean I could have be
Elizabeth Walters ~“Elizabeth.” I heard someone call my name, making me halt in my steps. I turned to look at who it was. A silent grin escaped my lips as I looked at her.Jemma. My neighbor. The only person who would rather have her nose in every one’s business but never in hers.I watched as she hurried out of the corridor, pushing the strands of hair that fell to her face in a rush. I couldn’t help but wonder why a thirty year old lady loved gossiping so much. I mean she looked like she could do better things for herself but she would rather spend it gossiping and trying to dig for informations.“I’ve been wanting to see you.” She says, gasping fo
Elizabeth Creed“Elizabeth! Wake the fuck up.!” I heard someone yell, hitting my thighs aggressively.I opened my eyes to see Hazel staring at me, her eyes were almost poking out of her head, i scrunched my nose and sat up.“What’s wrong?” I yawned slightly.“Here.” She passed me her phone, shoving it into my hands aggressively. I furrowed my eyebrows and collected it from her, wondering what got her so worked up. My eyes widen slightly after watching what I just did. I had absolutely no idea everything could get sorted so fast and that too within the same day.Tears
Zane Creed~Satisfaction. That was what I felt at the moment. Knowing I had the upper hand against Eugene and Lola satisfied me greatly. If there’s another thing that made me satisfied, it had to be the fact that she accepted the money from them.I mean, what is losing a few bucks to her going to do?I turned back briefly to see Eugene walk away in anger. It was genuinely pathetic seeing how caught up in Lorraine’s pants he is. It’s more like he has no life of his own and constantly has to live up to the expectations of his father and Lorraine, therefore not allowing him to realize his dream or even have a dream.Truly patheti
Elizabeth Walters~I felt his hot breath fanning against my face, my heart beat grew faster by the minute. I swallowed the lump in my throat, making a tiny squeaky noise. It felt like I was in some sort of trance, I couldn’t look away. I knew what was going to happen yet I didn’t want to look away. I want this. I sucked in a breath as soon as his lips enveloped mine. His hands holding my neck as he bubbles on my lower lip. I let out an involuntary sigh, I gasped lightly when his teeth grazed my lip, his tongue slid in, making me more delirious than I already was. I felt my knees grow weak and I held unto his shirt.It was getting more intense by the minute, our tongues were fighting for dominance, his arms wrapped around my wai
Zane Creed~I Fucked up.Yes, I know I’m a grown man and shouldn’t be panicking it I did. Seeing her withdraw, taking two steps back and not even looking at Me. I realized the gravity of the mistake I just made.Fucking hell!!Why did I have to kiss her at that moment? More importantly why the fuck did I not see her off. I just watched her from the window. I literally walked out on her and said nothing.I can’t imagine what she must think of me now. A man whore? Perhaps? Argh.. my head was going through it at the moment. I stood up from the c
Zane Creed~I felt someone’s arm wrap around my toros. My eyes flew open by the unfamiliar contact.“You’re awake.” I heard a voice say, glancing by my side to see Emerald laying beside me, a huge smile in her face as she stared at me.“You?” I threw her arm off my torso, immediately sitting up.Oh shit. What did I do yesterday? I held my head in my hands as I remembered everything that happened, glancing to see Emerald who was still smiling.“I stayed up half of the night to look at you, you are really cute when you a
Elizabeth Walters~ The deafening banging coming from the door jolted me up. I flinched at the noise, almost jumping out my own skin. I rubbed my eyes sleepily, throwing the duvet off my body as I stood up. The person knocking had no patience at all and just wanted to knock down the door. I hissed loudly as I wore my slippers, walking towards the sitting room. “Who is it?!” I yelled angrily, I swear, if it is Hazel, I will literally bang the door on her face. She had zero patience. “Who is it?!” I yelled out, unlocking the door but still got no reply.
EpilogueElizabeth Walters~It’s been three months now. Today marks the third moth Mr Creed passed away and left us here. Today marks the second month since Mrs Lorraine was sentenced to life imprisonment for her involvement in the death of Zane’s mother and attempted murder of Zane.It’s been one hell of a ride during these past three months. Zane has focused so much on work, I fear he would break down one day. I know everything that has happened has been extremely over whelming for him and I wish he would open up more about his feelings but at the same time I didn’t want to pressurize him.“Whe
Zane Creed~ “What do you want to do now sir?” Markel asked me. I sighed and looked around. “Visit father, go and see Elizabeth and finally Lorraine. “ I say “Which would you like to do first?” “Visit Elizabeth, I think I need her now.” I say, putting my phone into my pocket and walked out of the house, I asked Markel to lock the doors to the house properly and make the workers leave. There was no use renovating anything anymore. I hopped into the car while I waited for Markel to join me. I couldn’t help but remember Lola. How distraught she must be. I wish I felt pity for them but in all honesty, I really do not beca
Zane Creed~I felt the time stop just as soon processed these things she just said to me. I knew Lorraine was heartless but to this extent? I didn’t believe it. Her phone began to ring, jolting me out of my thoughts. “What!?” She barked into the phone, her voice changing like she wasn’t the same Lorraine.“If you had done your job properly then this wouldn’t be happening you nit wit! If you had cleared him during the accident then I won’t be forced to finish this by myself. I removed paying you quite a hefty sum to do the job but you failed. Now cut the call and let me finish this off. I have wasted enough time already.” She barked and cut the
Elizabeth Walters~“Are you still there?“ Hazel asked over the phone, I turned slightly to look at Zane who was now sleeping. A soft smile laying on my lips“Yeah, he is sleeping but I would be here for a while, don’t worry about me.”“You’re sure you will be okay? That his crazy sister won’t try to attack you like she did yesterday?”“No, don’t worry about it. I have my nurse fit with me and I’ll be fine.” I say and hung up, tucking the phone into my pocket. I sighed and looked back at Zane who was still sleeping.He didn’t want to sleep even
Zane Creed~“Sir, it’s safe so you can open your eyes.” I heard Markel’s voice and opened my eyes. Looking around the room to be sure we were the only one here. I removed the bandage on my arm and sat up. “What happened? Is Elizabeth fine?” I asked and he nodded affirmatively.“Yes, she got into an argument with Lola but she left already.” He tells me and I stand up.“I feel guilty. She had to get into that stupid argument with Lola because of me. I should find out the person behind this as soon as possible. I can’t wait any longer especially now that Elizabeth is here.” I tell him
I woke up as early as I could the next day, I could hardly sleep. I had to force myself to sleep seeing as I would actually need it but truthfully I felt guilty that I slept when Zane was prolly fighting for his life.I got up from the bed and stretched a bit. My muscles were cramped from the flight yesterday but I had no time to dwell on it.I stood up and walked into the bathroom, I had to see Zane as soon as possible but how? I had no idea.I stepped into the shower and had my bath. A while later I finished, walking out of the bathroom and towel dried my body.“Good morning, Noah called to ask if we got here safely.” She tells me and I smiled. Of course only Noah would call me and that’s because
Elizabeth Walters~“What’s going on? I thought his assistant was also involved in the accident.” Hazel asked as we walked into the elevator.“To be honest, I have no idea but all I want to do right now is see Zane. That’s all there is to it.” I say and she sighed, placing her hand over my shoulders.“I’m sure everything is fine.” She tells me and I smiled, whispering a thank you to her.We walked out of the elevator on getting to his floor, walking directly to his office. I knocked lightly on the door and heard someone yell for me to come in.I furrowed my eyebrow and glanced at Hazel, pushing the

Elizabeth Walters ~Out of all the chaos happening, I am only glad for one thing. Zane had booked our returning tickets so I could leave Seattle whenever I wanted to and for today, it’s helping me.Here I was in the airplane and on my way back to NewYork. My heart wasn’t settled. The surge ment I had with mom was constantly bugging me like no tomorrow. Thinking about what the newscaster said again made my heart beat increase by a hundred.What condition would he be in? How would he be fairing? I had no idea and I was really worried. I just couldn’t wait to get back to NewYork and see him. “Elizabeth, stop worrying so much and calm down, I’m sure Zane is doing ok
