He wasn't known by his circle to be a patient person, but he didn't urge her to make a decision quickly. This frightened birdie had a weak mental state; he didn't want to push her into doing something she didn't want to.Besides, this might be the first time he was asking a woman out—usually, they just threw themselves at him."Alright then, but...would you be okay with me telling my father about you? Perhaps if he knows that you are the one who saved me, he might get off my back.""Sure, do as you wish.""How do you plan on doing this? Beth is very skilled; she doesn't even let me go to the bathroom alone.""Don't worry." He glanced at the woman briefly, then rose to his feet and gestured for Evelyn to follow. The blond girl blushed when he held her hand in his; those who didn't know their relationship would think they were a couple. "Your bodyguard isn't the o
Meet him? He was willing to meet up with her?Evelyn was stunned; it took her a long while to finally digest what her savior was proposing. From their short interaction, she’d thought he didn’t have a good view of her, he might even think she was annoying. But who would have thought that he would propose to meet up again!Her excitement died down, however, when she recalled the events of yesterday. Silas hadn’t hesitated to shoot those people; it was the first time Evelyn had been involved in a violent scene. There was something dark about him; perhaps he was involved in a gang or something. Either way, it meant he wasn’t safe, and the best option would be to stay away from him.Plus, her father and uncle were already mad at her; how could she do something to annoy them again? But she was curious about Silas; she had so many questions for him. If she passed off this opportunity, then who knows when she would get the chance to see him again."I’ll be there."Her mind was already made u
Sensing the rising tension, Luciano finally interfered. "It's enough now, both of you." He turned his gaze to Ashton; there was a bit of guilt in his eyes. "I will speak with him."Ashton scoffed, and with one last glare at his son, he walked out of the room. Only when he saw his father retreating back did Silas allow his emotions to reflect on his face. He was in disbelief; just now, he had been a bit scared that the man might take action. The way Ashton had stared at him was like looking at a dead thing, cold and detached.Slowly, he sat back on the sofa, his hands trembling by his side, which made him feel very irritated. "What would you like to talk to me about?""The girl you met—you shouldn't get involved with her anymore.""Why?""The reason is not important.""Not important?" Silas laughed dryly. "You saw his reaction just now. Did that imply that whatever is happening here isn't important? You all are trying to hide such a big secret, and you want me to play the role of an id
Silas was back in Italy by the next morning. Thankfully, he got to his grandfather's house just as his father's car stopped in front of the compound. The handsome man was dressed meticulously in a three-piece suit, his hair kept short and neatly cut. He exuded an air of coldness that intimidated those around him.Luciano came out to greet his adoptive son, a smile playing on his lips. "I didn’t expect you to come here today. To what do I owe the visit?""I'm here to bring the boy home. His mother worries.""He is old enough to go wherever he wants, Amore. There’s no need to coddle him. He is a Beriosova, after all."'That's it,' Ashton thought to himself. 'It's exactly because I know he is a Beriosova.'The longer Silas stayed in a place like this, the harder it would be to untangle him from the web of crime and illegal business his grandfather governed. Ashton hated this kind of lifestyle the most. He had left the compound after marriage, choosing to start an honest business his fami
Though the man was visibly angry, how could Evelyn leave just like that? She didn’t know why she was still lurking around; a part of her just wanted to get to know this person more. She felt an instant connection to him.Or perhaps it was the resemblance he shared with her mom. Every time she looked at his face, she was left feeling dazzled. He was simply too handsome; just one look into his eyes and she would get flustered. How nice it would be to befriend this person. Only then could she properly repay him for his help.“You don’t understand how difficult it was to find you. Now that I’m here, I can’t simply leave just like that. At least let me take you out for dinner.” No, that sounded like she was asking him out on a date! Seeing the man’s face darken further, she quickly added, “Or we can just talk here. I don’t mind.”“First of all, I don’t appreciate being stalked.” The fact that she had even managed to find him meant he hadn’t been on guard in the first place. That wouldn’t d
It was Saturday the next day, so she slept far into the morning than usual. She was awakened due to the constant pinging sound her phone made. Groggily, she picked it up and checked the messages; her eyes were wide with shock when she saw that the information had been sent to her. Bella was very meticulous in her work; she'd managed to pinpoint the exact location where the car was being stationed at the moment.The Moonlite Imperial Hotel, a five-star hotel whose history could also be traced back to the Royal family. It was once a mansion which was gifted to a young princess by her father. Though the hotel wasn't very big, due to its historical background and beautiful scenery, it was a popular tourist attraction.Those who stayed at this hotel were clearly people who had the money. Evelyn had been there once on a school tour. It was located in a remote part of town, nearly two hours' drive away from her father's company.Two damn hours!! Now, how the hell was she supposed to achieve
Molly Walker, the one person Winter couldn't silence. Knowing how malicious his mother was towards his wife and daughter, Winter preferred it if she remained in New York instead of visiting. While he could punish those who dared to spread rumors about his daughter's legitimacy, at least their words were only speculations based on very thin evidence.But Molly knew the truth, and though she never pointed it out directly, her hints weren't exactly subtle. And Winter respected her enough not to have her threatened; he could only watch with great dissatisfaction as she ran her mouth over issues that were of no concern to her."Dad?" Evelyn had gotten out of the car and was waiting for him to do the same, only she saw that the man was lost in his thoughts and was glaring down at the steering wheel like it had offended him greatly."You go in first, I'll be right behind you."Evelyn easily agreed and left the parking lot. She went into the house. The smell of delicious food came from the ki
Unknowingly, she began to entertain the thought of actually considering Sage's proposal.She couldn't take her eyes off him in class. She hadn't noticed just how tall and good-looking he was before; now, it was all she could think about."Ms. Walker, mind taking your eyes off Sage for a moment and paying attention to the board?" The teacher's voice snapped her out of her thoughts, and it also drew the entire class’s gaze to her. Some found it sincerely amusing, while others, particularly Sage's female admirers, gave her warning looks.Evelyn shrank back in her seat, her face aflame with embarrassment. She hadn’t even realized she'd been watching Sage so intensely that even the teacher had noticed.Sage looked over his shoulder at the embarrassed girl and couldn’t help an amused chuckle. "Damn, you finally have her in the bag," his friend and seatmate, Josh, exclaimed. Knowing how long the school heartthrob had been pining for the Winter girl, he was genuinely surprised at her sudden i
His pupil's visibly dilates. When being stared at by those orbes which were as dark as the abyss, Evelyn found herself startled. She was clearly teasing him, who knew he would have such a strong reaction.His hand trembled and she involuntarily let him go, fearing that she had crossed a boundary that shouldn't be transpired. Had she, in her haste to dispel the conversation made Sage uncomfortable? That can't be, it was simply just touching her through her shirt, there was no direct skin to skin contact. She was just about to appologize she she felt the hand she was holding being retracted back. She could only let go and stare at him with a hint of embarrassment." I just meant..."" I know. A joke " While his expression was once complicated, now it had smoothed over and one wouldn't be able to know whether he had been angry or felt something else. " Even though you think of it lightly, this matter is still very serious. If possible, let's not talk about it again "Evelyn could only a
The pain in my stomach was what rose me from my restless sleep. I was surprised to find myself in a hospital room, I found that both of my hands were cuffed to the bed. My whole body was aching, but the fear of finding myself in this strange position made me overlook the pain. I couldn't recall going to the hospital. The last thing I remembered was receiving a text message from an unknown number, which claimed that my husband of three years was cheating on me with my sister.I didn't think that Damian would do that to me, but my curiosity had gotten the best of me and I had taken my car with the intention of going to the location I had received in the text message, according to the stranger, I would find my husband and sister in that hotel room together. but the moment I had gotten into the car everything had gone black, I didn't recall anything after that.I struggled to free myself but my binding didn't budge one bit, whoever had tied it hadn't cared about my comfort at all. I was j...
