Kayla was at a loss for words to say as her mouth was agape while Lilana twirled the fork on her hands as she started down at her plate with a smile crept to the corner of her lips. Kayla squeezed the picture that Liliana pushed to her, clenching her fist by her side as she fell right back to the chair with her heart beating with trepidation. “H-How” Kayla stuttered with tears cascading down her cheeks. She sniffled in her tears, running her hands through her hair as she expelled out a sigh which depicted her anger, frustration and sadness at the same time“What do you want from me?” Kayla’s voice broke down as her clenched fist began to shake vigorously. Liliana knew that her words had already gotten the best part of Kayla as she raised her head, shooting her a glare.“Do you still want to prove what you are worth or are you ready to talk?” Liliana leaned in her chair as a sly smile creased the corner of her face. Kayla squeezed her eyes shut as she fell back on the chair. Her pupi
Kayla scoffed when she caught sight of the blackmailer who was tied to a wooden chair with a thick rope and duct tape over her mouth. The lady that was tied to the chair whimpered on catching sight of Kayla who waltzed toward her with her eyes blazing with fire.“You son a bitch” Kayla cussed as she charged toward the blackmailer with a punch in the face. Lilliana leaned by her side against the door with a smile that crept the corner of her lips while clicking her tongue in her mouth. Her upper lips curled with the scornful smile on her face as she sauntered toward them.“Do you believe me now” Liliana crossed her arm, glancing back and forth at the blackmailer and Kayla who stared intently at each other. She smiled to herself because she knew that she has finally succeeded in wrapping Kayla around her finger and with everything going on at the moment, she was damn sure that she would cage Kayla and place her in a situation that she would never be able to escape.“I am going to kill y
Connor has never been frustrated like he was at the moment. Trying to make sure that the deal doesn't get into Luc's hands was a herculean task that he was trying so hard to be successful at. In the next two days, the owner of the deal would be announced at a dinner party with the way things were going, he was damn sure that he wouldn't get the deal if he didn't get rid of Luc soon. “How do I get rid of this bastard and betrayer?” Connor muttered under his breath as he brushed his hands underneath his nostrils. He unknotted his tie and fell back on the chair while his beta, Jack, came inside the room with a straight expression on his face. With the way Connor’s eyes blazed, he knew better than anyone that it was better not to talk and focus on what he was there to do. He gulped on his spittle as he sauntered to the shelves and removed the book that was placed on the shelf. Connor raised his head to look toward his direction as silence pervaded between the two of them. “Any progress
A scoff escaped Carolina's lips as she stared at Kayla in nothing but utter disbelief, not believing the words that fell out of her mouth. It was more like she was staring at another person and that wasn't the Kayla that she knew. She released her grip around Liliana's hair as her eyebrows furrowed in confusion. She wasn't only confused but she couldn't wrap her head around what was going on at the moment."I think you kind of have a misconception about something because I was just here on my own when she poured water on me" Carolina muttered, shooting a dead stare at Liliana who pouted her lips as if she wanted to burst into tears. What confused Carolina the most was the fact that Kayla didn't keep the phone away and still shoved the phone's camera right to her face. However, while Carolina was still trying to wrap her head around what was happening at the moment, she noticed that the angle where the video was taken was done in such a way that it would favor Liliana over her.At tha
Connor was livid as a flicker of rage could be evident in his eyes. He squeezed the piece of paper in his hands and hurled it against the wall when he read the message that Kayla had sent to him. He picked up the phone that slipped out of his hands as he re-read the message that was sent by his cousin. He couldn't believe his eyes and he was more infuriated when he saw the video that popped up on his screen.Connor was sure that he wasn't seeing right because she would never write something like that against Carolina. However, he knew that of all his cousins, the only one he could trust the most was Kayla. He read the message out loud to be sure that he wasn't having a problem with his eyesight."Dear Connor, I hope that you are enjoying your trip. However, I wanted to bring to your notice the intolerable acts and behavior that Carolina has shown recently. I take back all my words of Carolina being nice and being the kindest person on planet earth,""Carolina engaged in a fight with L
Carolina suddenly stopped on her track, turning to look at the door as she was at a loss for words to say. She retracted her step backward, scanning the rook with her eyes while looking for a place to hide. The song that was being hummed alerted her from the outside and she didn't need to see the person's face before she would know that it was Liliana. She quickly swallowed the lump that formed in her throat and went into the closet to hide. As soon as she found a hiding place, she heard the door creak open slowly as Liliana kept laughing uproariously before heaving a sigh. Liliana was glad that everything was finally falling into place and when Connor gets back from his business trip, the first thing he would do was kick Carolina out.However, she was confused about something. She was confused about why Connor didn't call her despite the video that he saw and the claims that were made. She placed her hands on the wall for support as she leaned by her side a bit and slipped off her
Connor was jolted out of his thoughts because of the knock that landed on the door. He swirled in his swivel chair before coming to an abrupt stop as he shifted his gaze to the door, waiting for whoever was at the door to come in. Connor cocked his brow to the left when the person kept knocking on the door. He was first thrown into a state of confusion as he tried to wonder who could be at the door at the moment. The knock on the door seized and he was surprised when he saw Jack poke his head inside.Connor heaved out a sigh that depicted his frustration as he ran his hands through his hair. He couldn't believe his eyes nor could he wrap his head around what was happening at the moment, most especially, when he saw the person that sauntered behind Jack. His haughty eyes gleamed underneath the dim lights as he adjusted the rim of his glasses and fixed his gaze to Connor whose eyebrows furrowed in confusion. Connor stood to his feet and the only thing he wanted to do at the moment was
Carolina's mouth slacked open when she saw how she entered the basement. She was at a loss for words to say and neither in her wildest imagination would she believe that there was an underground basement in Liliana's room. Liliana's room has a pink rug at the center and underneath that rug was another basement."What could she be up to? Does Connor know about this and why in the world would he allow her to even have one?" Carolina muttered to herself, curious to know if the other rooms had their own basement as well. Since Liliana was out of sight already, she rushed outside the room, slamming the door shut silently behind her in a bid not to alert Liliana about anything. Somehow, Liliana managed to hear the door slammed shut. She paused on her track as she walked down the stairs earlier before she heard the sound of the door that was slammed shut.She raised a brow and clenched her fist by her side."I knew that witch was here! I would make sure that I would do anything to kick her
