LOGINChapter For Hundred And Eighty-Seven“But not controlled by just anyone! He’s controlled by Zaire Ludovic!”Lana froze in place, her eyes almost bulging out of her head.Liam had been attacking a sip from his cup of coffee and had spilled everything all over the coffee table and Director Evans.He ended up coughing profusely as Director Evans yelled in outrage, his face red with digust, “Argh! You’re disgusting!”Liam could not apologize because of the pain in his chest, and Director Evans quickly settled down back as the maids rushed forward to take care of everything.They quickly wiped the spill and gave Director Evans wet towel. The old man’s no longer cared for his wet clothes, as he sat down once more to face Lana and the rest of them.He was pleased that they were as shocked as they looked and were now giving him full attention.Lana had not moved from the spot that she was. She clutched the neckline of her dress tightly as she began trembling, “What did you say?”Director Evan
Chapter Four Hundred And Eighty Six“Let’s hear what you so desperately need from someone who has been kicked out of Romero.”The others in the room snickered at the statement which Lana made and Director Evans felt his face become even redder with anger.Yes he had previously taunted Lana because she had been kicked out of the Romero Empire which she protected more than her life.But he just could not help it.However, he did not mean that Lana was without power as she had been kicked out of Romero Empire. He only meant to say that she had given her all for an Empire which had betrayed her.It was something to fuel her anger to work with him. But at the same time, it was also something which he mocked her with.He glanced up at Lana and saw that she was looking at him with an eyebrow raised inquisitively, “Well, are you gonna have your seat or are you gonna stay there all day watching me?”Director Evans started at that statement and he struggled to his feet.“Believe me when I say I
Chapter Four Hundred And Eighty-FiveDirector Evans nodded, even though he felt another jab to his pride by having this ride, young woman speak to him this way.“Why should I care about disturbing your sick child?” He thought to himself maliciously, “If she had to pass through what I’m going through right now, I’m sure she would be dead by now.”However, he did not dare say this out loud to Lana. That would mean he was forfeiting his purpose for coming here. And no one in their sane mind would help anyone who insults their child.Even though he felt Lana would undoubtedly jump at the chance to work with him when he revealed his offer.It was quite a juicy one.He scoffed internally, looking forward to how she would react when he eventually say what brought him to the villa.“What’s with the brooding expression and the mysterious air?” Lana’s young assistant, Diego Martinez spoke up. Diego rolled his eyes in Director Evans’s direction, “What on earth brought you here, Director Evans? S
Chapter Four Hundred And Eighty-FourLana sat very straight backed on her chair, with her arms crossed her gaze very direct with her eyebrows drawn down slightly in disbelief.Beside her sat the other three men; Paul, Liam and Diego.These were also sitting very straight backed like Lana with their arms crossed as they stared straight ahead of them, with the same slight look of disbelief.In front of them sat Director Evans, squirming in his chair and trying very hard not to give off that he was self conscious with the way the four opening front of him stared at him.“And to what do I owe this…uh…whatever this is,” Lana started, unsure of how to addresss the situation. She decided to just address Director Evans directly, “What is this? What are you doing here, Director Evans?”Director Evans bristled, “You do not have to be as rude as ever,” he said gruffly, raising his chin in defiance as he straightened the collars of his coat, “You think I would just drop by randomly to see you? To
Chapter Four Hundred And Eighty-ThreeHilda slowly got up from the floor on which she was kneeling. She straightened out her dress and stood very straight backed by the door, her chin raised defiantly.“I await your orders, ma’am,” she said, gritting out the words from between her teeth.Maya smiled, “Get the bath ready. Do not forget the pink Himalayan salts,” she said as she turned back to the mirror, looking at Hilda through the glass, “You know I need them for my bath to be complete.”Hilda gritted her teeth as she ignored Maya’s little jab, then went towards the bathroom to prepare the bath.Once everything once done, Maya stepped into the bubbling tub like royalty and had the most luxurious bath ever.She insisted on Hilda standing beside her and hiding on to her towel as well as refilling her glass of wine, which she sipped occasionally as she enjoyed her bubble bath.Hilda bore all this, suffering through the ordeal and almost biting her tongue in the process to keep her anger
Chapter Four Hundred And Eighty-TwoThe maid looked at Maya, her hands fisting her dress and holding on tightly.“You know, that’s not what I meant!” She cried out in a hoarse whisper, “All I meant to say was…ugh… I was only trying to protect my life!”“Not what you meant?” Maya scoffed, “Come on Hilda, did you honestly think that walking off to reveal my true identity to Damien would not ruin Zaire’s plans? How stupid can you be?!”Hilda gritted her teeth, almost biting into her gum with rage, “That’s because I was trying to make you see reason and how foolish your act was… ahh…”The maid covered her head with both hands in terror as Maya suddenly lifted the vase in her hands. She immediately fell to her knees before the vase descended and placed both palms together, running them vigorously in a pleasing fashion.“I’m sorry, I’m sorry!” She pleaded, through gritted teeth, like it was killing her to be doing what she was doing. Tears of rage and fear burned her eyes and spilled over a
