"Cecy , have you seen the trending news?" Sandy approached Cecy ."No, I'm not interested instead of wasting your time why don't you work on your thesis?""Mmmh, you are so boring, how can your life be so empty? Apart from working, there is nothing fun that you do," Sandy complained."Fine, fine tell me now stop pouting," Cecy immediately stopped what she was doing. This was always Sandy's way of getting Cecy 's attention. Sandy immediately smiled after accomplishing what she had wanted."So?" Cecy spoke after a long silence."What do you mean so? He is talking about you, you his childhood lover," Sandy emphasized."I'm married anyway just ignore him," after saying that, Cecy went back to working. It's not like she didn't know about it, actually when Cecy had been abandoned they had recently became friends so thinking about what had happened she didn't want to push it through."Aah jeez, why do I feel like in the next few days there won't be any peace?" Thinking of that San
Twisted Love Knots: A Billionaire's Substitute Chapter 19: Dinner Date
"Wait is this where we are dining?" Cecy spoke in amazement as Ethan stopped the car in front of the hotel."Mmmh," he replied nonchalantly but deep down he felt so proud of himself after seeing Cecy 's expression."I just know," he lied with a straight face. Cecy couldn't hide her excitement."How did you manage to get a reservation on such short notice?""You know me? I'm great," he winked his eye playfully."Go on, I'll park the car wait for me in the lobby I'll be with you in a sec,""Okay," Cecy replied After he said that he walked around and then opened the passenger seat. Cecy casually walked inside the hotel building and then stood at the side as she looked around curiously.Suns Hotel was a seven-star hotel inorder to make a reservation one had to book six months in advance not even the prominent leaders could access it. It was one of the hotels that not everyone could access it.So as she stood in the lobby Cecy felt quite odd and ordinary as she looked around."E

Black dots filled Arianna's vision yet that didn't stop her from staring at that man with hate. God knew if her eyes were bullets, he would be long gone by now.Arianna was surrounded at all sides and she knew even if she managed to escape them now, she wouldn't be able to make it far. She was still on the floor when suddenly a path was created and someone came to stand in front of her.Arianna was stunned when she looked up to discover that it was no other than the collector that had come to her place that day and everything began to make sense. She realized at that moment, her uncle had sold her off to pay off his debt."We meet again," He said, smiling down at her."You!" Arianna didn't know whether to be angry or grateful that she met a familiar face. Thanks to him, she managed to discover what was going on."What is the meaning of this?" she asked, trying to get up to her feet to no avail. She had somehow twisted her ankle during her fall and it hurt like hell.Her inability to s
Twisted Love Knots: A Billionaire's Substitute Chapter 21: Kenith Was Vital To Her Plan
Arianna's face fell as soon as she heard that comment. She had been hoping to get some answers but all he did was to remind her of the situation she was in. She was doomed.Suddenly, she grabbed his hand and that caused him to look up but Arianna didn't care, she needed an escape right now.His brows raised and she added, "Please,"The man pulled away from his hand, "It seems like you haven't understood the situation you are currently in. Even if you escape from here, we're going to hunt you down to the end of the earth," He drew closer such that their body was almost touching, "Why would I help you escape,"Of course, he was right. Why would he help her escape for Christ's sake?"I just need a little time," Arianna tried her luck and somehow hoped a miracle would happen, "I have a trust fund with a large sum of money in there but it's not operational until next year. I just need more time!" She pleaded with him."Who doesn't need more time," He said.The collector sighed, "As much as
Twisted Love Knots: A Billionaire's Substitute Chapter 22: Samson And The Chihuahua
"Ugh," Marcel woke up to blinding sunlight filtering through the window. However, that was the least of his problems because right now, something or rather someone was licking his face.At first thought, Marcel thought it was Samson and sat up with a startle, intending to give that beast a piece of his mind, however, he was treated to a cute-looking chihuahua staring back at with adorable eyes."God," He groaned, what kind of assault was it this early morning?His face was filled with drool and it pissed Marcel off. He had not a single idea about a dog's normal social behavior. At three years old, while other kids were getting dolls and toys, Marcel was already practicing how to disassemble and assemble guns. In one word, he has no pet aside from the lion who was still lying lazily on the ground and watching that new intruder with bad intention. To Marcel, Samson was more of a companion and guide than a pet. If there was anything Marcel loved so much, that was his sleep and the chih
Twisted Love Knots: A Billionaire's Substitute Chapter 23: Ruth's Assistant
"I've found the clinic that treated Elijah that night,"Marcel's gaze was drawn to Macy like a magnet the instant he heard that news. This news was like a light in the dark for him and how he loves good news."You did?" A satisfied smile crossed his features and he went to sit down on the couch in his room. His room was spacious and as expected held a strong masculine tone.Marcel enjoyed luxury and the proof of it was his lavishly decorated room. Everything in here was of the best quality - including his bed that felt like sleeping on clouds."Yes, I did," Macy was delighted even though she didn't show it on her face."Where is the clinic then?" Marcel asked, already formulating plans for his next step. He already had a clue, the next step was to fish out his opponents."To be precise, it's an animal clinic," Macy disclosed, "While the owner parades herself as a veterinarian in the morning, at night, she takes in criminals who turn away from hospitals for treatment. Our sources confi

Kenith didn't fail to keep his promise of changing her room. As soon as Arianna woke up from sleep the next day, there was already an interior decorator waiting to receive her preference."They must have a lot of money to waste on her," Arianna thought. But then why wouldn't they when they were basically a loan shark? The thought of it made her blood boil, if it wasn't for her uncle borrowing from them, she wouldn't be in this situation.There was nothing as annoying as being helpless to change your predicament. Her uncle took her freedom, her life! The anger was like claws digging into her heart and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't remove it... She couldn't breathe. It was just suffocating.Arianna decided to take advantage of the situation. Since they had the money, she should help spend it well. So Arianna went all out decorating her room. Since she was going to spend the rest of her miserable days here, she had to make sure it was liveable. She did not doubt that she wou

"Hmm, your sir Kenith seems to do a lot of odd jobs around here?"Arianna innocently said yet hinted at something Cassie failed to recognize or maybe, she did understand it. "Oh," Cassie chuckled as if what she said was funny, "Our boss kenith is very social and kind. And he's loved by all the women here,""Including you?" Arianna said immediately, her head tilted at the young girl questioningly.A blush crept up Cassie's face at once, "Well, I do have a crush on him but that's just all. Unlike some of the other women here, I can't delude myself into thinking that there's a possibility of having a future with him,""You're a smart one then. As much as fantasies are great, we have to return to reality eventually," Arianna said to her. She was really liking the girl and Cassie seem kind and responsible."You can't really blame them though, Sir Kenith is Big Joe's right-hand man and the real magnet holding this place together," Cassie revealed and that made a hidden smirk cross Arianna's

Twisted Love Knots: A Billionaire's Substitute Only The Future Would Tell
"Good morning love," Arianna woke up to Marcel peppering butterfly kisses on her jaw and nuzzled her neck, deeply inhaling her scent as if she was a drug that he was addicted to. Well, that was not entirely wrong. He was fucking addicted to her. "Morning," Arianna croaked, sleepy-eyed, and turned her back to him. They had done a lot of bonking last night and she was sore and tired as hell. Not that the move deterred him because she could feel his hands caressing her naked body beneath the sheet, stirring up a fire that should be extinguished already. Unfortunately, her body was a greedy bitch and a sucker for pain. One would have thought that after giving birth to three children, their sex life would have dwindled, but the reverse was the case. This was the reason they had to get away from the children and the base. Sex with Marcel was always loud, dirty, and rompy and they didn't want the children walking into something inappropriate. Moreover, just because they had children, did
Twisted Love Knots: A Billionaire's Substitute Chapter 149 Debut Into The Family
Ten years later….. ___________"Mummy? Daddy?" Penelope walked into her parent's room only to realize that it was as dead as a graveyard. Her parents were nowhere to be seen and she went into a panic. Penelope was four years old and the third child to be born to Marcel and Arianna. It was obvious that the girl was conceived with love and named after Marcel's mother whom she bore a bit of resemblance as well. The young girl had Marcel's blonde hair and her late grandmother's blue eyes marking her different from her siblings who had the signature gray eyes of the Luciano family. With Penelope taking up the role of their last child - although that position was likely to change in the future - she was spoiled and treated like a princess and it was not surprising that she burst into tears when she was unable to find her parents. "Mummy," She climbed into the bed and began to cry at the top of her lungs knowing that somebody was going to find her anytime soon. Penelope was used to the a
Twisted Love Knots: A Billionaire's Substitute Chapter 148 What The Future Had For Them
For someone mad at Marcel for taking Aricel out for a visit in the middle of the night, she ended up spending more time there instead. By the time they decided to go home, it was already three o'clock in the morning and even their resilient daughter couldn't fight nature anymore and had fallen asleep. It happened that Adele ended up revealing the news of her pregnancy publicly instead and that sparked off a celebration. There was a lot of drinking and eating in between light conversations that by the time they were done, Arianna was a hundred percent sure that she was drunk. Marcel was the daddy of the year because he refused the alcohol knowing that he would have to drive a drunk wife and sleepy daughter instead, even though Luka was available to take up the role of a designated driver. ραпdα---nᴏνa| сom And yes, it had taken Marcel quite some time to get used to the fact that his best soldier and friend - he would not admit it - did not betray him, rather he stepped out of line i
Twisted Love Knots: A Billionaire's Substitute Chapter 147 A Bit Of Happiness
He should have known. Marcel felt his phone ring earlier, but then, he had been so engulfed in the fun he was having with the children that he ignored it. Moreover, he had not expected Arianna home until the early hours of the morning, nor had it ever crossed his mind that she would ever come here. Even late at night, the children had a great burst of energy and didn't tire easily and who knew that the game would turn out to be more fun than he thought? Victor decided that they should play paintball and it was even stunning that he had the equipment in his booth as if he had seen this coming. Enlightening the kid on how to play the game was a bit taxing at first, but after about four trial games, they were good to go. The kids were smart and Marcel couldn't have been more proud of his daughter over the way she expertly dodged the Marker, paint-filled pellet. However, they were holding back on purpose because he, Elijah, and Victor were all expert shooters and this was supposed to
Twisted Love Knots: A Billionaire's Substitute Chapter146 Her Daughter Died
"I feel sick," Adele moaned over the toilet seat. "Shhh, it's okay," Arianna muttered, rubbing her back, "You're going to be fine and we are going to take you home right now." "No, I'll be -" She was about to protest when another wave of nausea hit her and she was retching into the toilet once more. Good thing no other person was coming in to use the restroom since this wasn't exactly a pretty sight. Adele was kneeling over the toilet while Arianna was behind her keeping her hair from getting in the way. The toilet cubicle was opened since it wasn't spacious enough for the both of them. "Mimi, could you stop staring at that strip and get the car ready? '' Arianna chided her with a glower. This was not a joke. Mimi in question was leaning against the sink and staring at the pregnancy strip as if it was a national treasure. While Adele had not denied the allegation of sleeping with her "husband" she was positive that she wasn't pregnant. It was too early nor did she have plans of
Twisted Love Knots: A Billionaire's Substitute Chapter 145 How Did Our Life Get To This Point
"Daddy! Daddy! carry me!" "Daddy! Me too!" "Daddy! Liam pinched me!" "Daddy! Look, I'm a dinosaur! Roar!!!"Such was the condition Marcel and Victor found Elijah in when they arrived at his place. The cousin had not come together, but somehow they met in the driveway and thus, came in at the same time only to see this disaster. "And I thought I had problems." Victor hinted at his son trying to wriggle out of his arms. "I second that," Marcel said, glancing down at his daughter Aricel who was trying to reach for her cousin Caleb, both of their hands touching but not exactly reaching. "No, Leo! Don't touch the vase!" Elijah was already reaching for the boy but the deed had already been done because the vase fell to the ground and shattered. At this point, Elijah stood helplessly staring at the twin who lifted his hand to his mouth and giggled shyly,"Daddy, sorry." "God, no," Elijah lifted his hand and rubbed his temple where he could feel a throbbing headache. He thought that h
Twisted Love Knots: A Billionaire's Substitute Chapter 144 Hating And Shagging
Adele was so embarrassed by her breakdown that she didn't dare to look any of them in the eyes and she was extra grateful when the food arrived. Now, she had a reason to not look up, burying her face in her food instead. As if they understood her, Arianna and Mimi did not bother her and let her be. Perhaps, this was the reason she preferred their company rather than being completely alone - aside from the fact that both of them were the only people relatively close to the word "friends" in her life. They respected each other's boundaries - most times, she thinks - and didn't push their buttons. Also, Adele felt better, lighter, like this huge load in her chest had been taken off. Who knew talking was therapeutic? "So…." Mimi started up another conversation, which wasn't surprising. She must hate the silence or something. "What's Marcel's plans towards Aricel?" The question was obviously directed at Arianna. "What do you mean by that?" Arianna looked down, absent-mindedly rolling
Twisted Love Knots: A Billionaire's Substitute Chapter 143: You're Not Alone
Arianna, Mimi, and Adele finally decided on a simple restaurant that was just around the corner and didn't have to trek too far. Although the late-night air cleared their head just a little bit and in no time they were basking in the warmth the restaurant provided. Picking up the menu, they made their orders before relaxing for a conversation that wasn't going to end anytime soon. "So…" Mimi started, which honestly wasn't surprising. She was a natural at initiating conversations even with the most awkward company, "How is married life going for you?" The question was directed at Arianna and she blinked in surprise, pointing a hand to her chest, "You mean, me?" "Yes, you. Who else was I going to start with?" Mimi shrugged, looking between the both of them - she and Adele. Arianna said, "You practically know everything about me. I thought you were going to start with her, she's the most reclusive person in this group." Adele in question lifted the glass of water to her lips and to
Twisted Love Knots: A Billionaire's Substitute Chapter 142 Girls Hang Out -2
The slap sent the man reeling as he saw stars in his vision. Unlike Mimi who had been taken aback by his action that reacted instinctively, Arianna's slap was well planned hence the reason she put a lot of her strength into it; she intended to hurt him "Who are you calling a bitch, your mother?!" She scolded him, stepping in line beside Mimi with her head lifted high. How dare that piece of shit lay a hand on her girlfriend? "Y-you!" The man raged, now holding the cheek where Arianna slapped him, "The both of you are dead!" He threatened her. "You have quite the confidence." Arianna scoffed, folding her arms across her chest. And oh, she finally saw why the man was confident because he did not come alone and about three of his minions stepped out confidently from the crowd. Just one night Arianna decided to be away from the stress of motherhood, and violence calls instead. At this point, those dancing on the floor abruptly halted their having sensed something violent was about to
