Kiandra was in Belle’s office talking to the latter when Lucas came in. “What’s wrong?” Kiandra probed when she saw the serious look on his face. Her first thought went to his mother and whether something bad had happened to her.“Zendaya’s school just called him,” Lucas started and Kiandra shook her head as a thought came into her mind. “Please don’t tell me that whatever they called for, has to do with her and Jayden Gerano,” she pleaded and when he didn’t refute her statement, she sighed in frustration. What was she going to do to end the enmity between Zendaya and the young Gerano?“Looks like history is repeating itself again,” Belle laughed as she found the whole situation funny. “Whatever is happening between Zendaya and the young brat is different from what is happening between Justin Gerano and I,” Lucas quickly refuted.“Is it?” Kiandra refuted and Lucas didn’t say anything as something told him he would regret it if he did especially with the look she was giving him. “Wha
“I don’t have a mother,” she said and proceeded to disconnect the call. When she left that house five years ago, she swore there and then in her heart that her mother was dead to her and she never looked back.“It’s May,” the caller introduced herself by her name.“I know, what do you want, May?” Kiandra asked calling her mother by her name as she wanted the woman to know and let it sink in that they had no relationship with each other. She might have been the one who brought her into the world but that was it. May never treated her like her daughter and so, there was no need to treat her as her mother.“I’m in the city where you are and I would like to see you,” May requested.“Go on the internet and search for me, you’ll see a lot of pictures of me,” Kiandra said and she disconnected the call. Her eyes turned cold as getting a call from May ruined her mood and not wanting Lucas to suspect anything, she schooled her features into her normal expression.However, when she turned to l
****It was now dark and Olivia left from the park and headed to where she parked her car. She got to the spot, the only downside was that her car wasn’t there. She started looking around for it. She even checked the bush and under the seat in the park to see if it was under there. She looked everywhere but her car wasn’t there.Olivia sighed and she fell to the ground as she had planned on selling the car and getting some money but now it was gone. ‘What am I going to do?’ she cried and ran her fingers through her hair roughly.‘Just kill me once and for all!’ she yelled in anger. She was a finished woman with no money, and nothing to call her own. Where was she supposed to start from? No one would help her as everyone hated her and she had no family to call her own. She couldn’t even give her daughter a befitting burial.Olivia was distracted from her thoughts when she heard the sound of a car coming. Wanting to ask the car for a ride, she quickly rose up and went to stand in the
After Kiandra left with Lucas, Belle continued her work. It was still a new world and she was trying to adjust to it but she liked it so far.She didn't know for how long she had worked for, but when she looked at the time, she saw that it was already past six in the evening.It was time to go home. With that thought, she closed the file she was reading and dropped it on her table. She would continue them the next day. Without wasting time, she packed her bag and headed out of her office. She wondered if Liam was still in his office as he hadn't come to tell her he was leaving.Knowing that he wouldn't leave without seeing her, she turned and went to his office."Liam," she called as she opened his door. She saw him sitting on the couch and he was on a call."Hmm," he said to the person who he was speaking to and he tapped the spot beside him signaling her to come sit.She immediately walked up to him and sat beside him. Without wasting time, he draped his hand over her shoulder and
The two immediately broke apart and they turned to look at who had just cursed in anger. The person turned out to be no one else but Lucas and he looked mad whole emitting a murderous aura."Lucas,” Liam called softly as he got down from the bed. Just a few minutes ago he had resolved to speak to Lucas about the whole situation only for him to walk in on them making out. Belle immediately followed and she stood behind Liam as she didn't want to face her brother at that moment who had a murderous gaze on his face."You bastard! She was off-limits!" Lucas yelled in anger. He was beyond livid as he had just been betrayed by the person whom he regarded as his brother and best friend.He had never requested anything from Liam. When he did finally make a request, it was a simple one for Liam and it was that the latter would never get involved with Belle. Liam had not only given his assurance that it would never happen but he had even promised as well only for him to walk into the same Lia
“Are you mad because of that?” Kiandra asked.Lucas turned to face her and he squinted his eyes at her; an action that made Kiandra feel uneasy. How was she supposed to lie and pretend to a man like this? “Yes,” he answered and returned his attention to punching the bag which made Kiandra heave a sigh of relief.“Why?” Kiandra asked as she wanted to know why Lucas was so against Liam and his sister being together. Lucas stopped punching the bag and he turned to face Kiandra once again.“I don’t know if I’m supposed to be more mad at the fact that I caught my sister making out with Liam or the fact that you know and hid it from me and is still pretending not to know,” Lucas smiled and Kiandra felt her heart drop. Right from when he had met her, he had known Kiandra to be a terrible liar. Her mouth would say one thing but her body language would say the actual thing. She might have not realized but she tended to scratch the back of her head when she was anxious, lying or trying to pr
Morning came by and Kiandra was woken up by the sound of her alarm. When she got up to put it off, she found herself in Lucas’ arms. The last thing she remembered was sitting on the sofa waiting for Lucas to come back , which he didn’t do until she fell asleep.Seeing that he was still asleep, she turned off the alarm and got out of bed to get Zendaya ready for school. After having her bath, getting dressed and eating breakfast, Zendaya was ready to go to school. Kiandra took her out where the little girl’s personal driver was already waiting for her. “Don’t cause any trouble, Zendaya and I mean it,” Kiandra warned her daughter. “I won’t,” Zendaya answered her mother. Last night she wasn’t allowed to eat any ice-cream after dinner and she wasn’t happy about it. She would avoid Jayden so it wouldn’t cost her her dessert.“Have a good day,” Kiandra bid as Zendaya got into the car. She watched the car drive out of sight before turning and going back into the mansion. Kiandra wondered
Tyrone watched as Dolores slept. After she had lost consciousness, the nurse had checked her and she said that she was fine but that didn't stop him from worrying for her.He found himself unable to sleep and he spent the night watching her while waiting for her to wake up. Was it the memory she remembered that made her faint? He asked himself as he stroked her hair. She didn't seem to be in pain anymore and this made him heave a sigh of relief.Feeling a bit tired he rested his head on the bed, beside her arms while still in his sitting position. He slowly began to fall asleep.But he had barely fallen asleep when he felt someone touching his hair. He immediately sat up and he found Dolores staring at him."Dolores you're awake," he said and he immediately stood up. "Hmm, can you help me sit up,” she asked him. "Sure," he answered and he helped her sit up. As soon as she was up, she grabbed a pillow and started hitting him much to his surprise."You asshole," Dolores yelled as she
