Elizabeth Walters~
I wasn’t really familiar with engagement parties, normally I would’ve thought it was simple and to just announce your engagement but coming here. It seemed more than that.
Everywhere was decorated so gorgeously If I didn’t know it was just an engagement, I would’ve thought it was the wedding of course.
I couldn’t get over the little details, I may not like Mrs Creed but I can definitely say, the hall was decorated too nicely.
I watched as the lights went dim, soon the Master of Ceremony (MC) stepped up the rather small podium to address everyone
“Hello all, we are all here
Elizabeth Walters~Lorraine fainted? “Zane, you have to help us.” Lola yelled, tapping the windshield aggressively, she could actually break the glass.“Take her to the hospital, there are two men there but it's my help you need?” Zane asked irritatedly.I sighed as I watched him talk to her. The two men in there were whomps and would do nothing but clamor for help.“Let it go, we can actually help her so why not?” I say, earning a glare from Lola.“Stay out of this, it’s our FAMILY business.” She snapped.
Elizabeth Walters~“Zane, please wait.” I glanced to see who was calling us only to see Eugene running after us.“What does he want now?” Zane muttered but only I could hear it.Zane was now standing right in front of us, I could tell he was stressed. After everything that happened. It’s just normal.“C-can we speak in private?” He asked, indirectly asking me to leave. I rolled my eyes at his question.“No, say what you want or have a nice day.” Zane says. I bit my inner cheek, trying my best to not laugh.&
Zane Creed~I am worried.Emerald was fast becoming an issue to me and Elizabeth. I had no idea what I was supposed to do now. “Stop worrying so much, I’m sure sooner or later, everything will dawn on her.” Elizabeth says.A smile crept up my face as I looked at her, how in the world did I ever land her? I am totally not going to let her slip away from me and which is why I will ask her today.I had everything all planned.“I’m not worried.” I tell her even though it was a lie
Zane Creed~“What do you want?” I asked, going straight to the point.I tucked in my hands into my pocket, standing right by the door, preventing them from even coming in the more.“Can we at least come in, it’s uncomfortable standing here.” Lola says.“No. Speak or leave. I have no time to entertain clowns.” I say without remorse.“Can she at least leave? She isn’t a part of the family.” She says, gesturing at Elizabeth who was sitting and watching the television, I had begged her to come with me and she did even though she didn’t want to.
Elizabeth Walters~It’s been exactly five minutes since Zane went into the place and I’ve been standing out here. I contemplated on going in now but what if he wasn’t done talking to her?I sighed as I wrapped my arms around my body, ignoring the chilly air around. A noise caught my attention, glancing to see what it was.I stood straight on seeing Mr Creed walk out of the cemetery, his face was so red from anger I could only wonder what had happened there.Our eyes met for a second and he paused to stare at me and suddenly he began to walk towards me, ignoring the man calling him. I buckled up for whatever
Zane Creed~Tonight by 7pm, I will be out here waiting for you, put on something warm, I’m sure it would be pretty cold tonight.” I tell her and she smiled, wrapping my arms around her waist. I wanted to kiss her badly but now now. Later I would do that.She wrapped her arms around my torso, placing her head against my chest.“I’ll be waiting for you.” She says and I kissed her hair.“Be good, Elizabeth.” I say, watching as she walked into the building.A light smile embraced my lips. I was down bad and I know it.I hopped into the car and drov
Elizabeth Walters~“Hey, look who finally came home after spending the night with her lover.” Hazel announced as soon as I stepped into the house.I threw my purse at her, glaring hard. “The fuck Hazel, what are you saying?“ I snapped and she shrugged“What? You totally forgot about us while you were with him, what did you think?” She asked, clearly jealous.“You’re so dramatic.” I say as I walked into the room only to see Ellie asleep.“She’s sleeping? Isn’t it too early to sleep?” I asked, checking the time.
Elizabeth Walters~It’s been hours already and Hazel had gone home, leaving me with Ellie. Thankfully we were both able to move past the whole Mr Creed threatening Situation even though it hasn’t actually been able to leave my mind. I am constantly reminded about it and I try to take my mind away from it all to no avail.“Elizabeth, mom would like to speak to you.” Ellie says, walking into the living room with her phone in her hands.I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion, I had no idea she was speaking to mom in the room.I collected the phone from her, placing it against my ear as I waited for mom to speak.“Elizabeth?&rdq
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
