Ava.
The rest of the night went by a blur and I was so busy that I didn't have the time to think about every event that happened today. And for that I was glad.
The ground floor seemed to be the largest and I noticed a casino at the left of the huge hall. Some men from and even a few women hung out there especially those from the 'Leech Rich' level.
The music was incredibly loud down here, with my heart beating in rhythm to it, at some point I danced a little when I got incredibly close to the speakers. I noticed the DJ, a cute black guy smirking at me giving me a thumbs up.
While the top floor customers were more of sitting and admiring the view, the people in the ground floor were the ones who tried to have fun. They were so much different than the last floo
**This chapter is dedicated to Shawna LeBouthillier and Diana RzG. You guys are one of the reasons I got back to writing. Thanks for your continuous support. Much love from me to you.♥️ And to RG who has shown support by dropping a review. I appreciate you.Ava.My heart clenched in my chest, my blood ran cold, my knees felt weak, threatening to give up and met me crumble to the floor. It suddenly felt like a part of me was falling apart as I processed what Mrs Potty had said over the phone.She had ended the call immediately, not giving me a chance to say anything. Not like I could, I was frozen, dumb and cold on the inside.Avery wasn't breathing.Avery wasn't breathing.
Ava.At some point when Jake talked about some programming languages. I zoned out. Not because he was boring. He was cool and brought a smile upon my face a few times.But with everything happening around and seeing Avery clinging to life, I just fell into a dark hole. A part of my life I tried hard not to remember resurfaced in my mind and I couldn't fight it off this time.I remember being sixteen, walking home, I had left Avery at school for violin practice and was having stomach cramps she had sent me home to rest.I remember the sun hitting me in the face, draining every last bit of energy I had as I walked slowly to our house down the street.Mom would be home by now, and I was almost salivating as I imagined
Ava."What?" I asked, rising to my feet in shock."Ava. Like I said, these drugs are very expensive. This money here should be around two thousand dollars, and trust me that wouldn't be enough for her treatment for a month." Potty said, coming to stand in front of me.I was paid two hundred dollars per night, I paid my rent weekly, electricity, water bills, internet, laundry, phone bills and I could barely keep up with Avery's past treatment bills.Now to make it worse, it's increased. Where the hell was I supposed to get two thousand dollars every two weeks.I slumped back on the chair, as tears filled my eyes. I didn't know what to do. I can't afford this."How'
Ava."I'm sorry." Mikhail whispered to me and I felt a tear slip down my face.Staring at those cold blue eyes that were filled with remorse for his actions and his girlfriend that day at the restaurant. His hands found my cheeks, wiping the tear off my cheeks.I shuddered at his touch, they sparked something inside me, let loose of the butterflies in my stomach so they fluttered around happily. His touch spoke of remorse, care and love and I melted into it, rubbing my cheeks against it.And when he pulled me close, my body pressed against his, head lying in his chest so I could hear the steady beat of his heart thumping in my ear. The scent of his cologne hitting my nose, his hands pressed against my back, wrapping me close, shielding me, protecting me, and loving me.&nb
Mikhail.I couldn't sleep.It wasn't because I had gone to bed very late or my past was flashing in my mind as dreams but instead Ava's teary eyes, looking up at me.I couldn't shake off the way she felt so broken, sad and humiliated. And it had all been my fault.Those teary hazel eyes looking up at me flashed across my mind and I groaned, slamming my fist in my pillow before rising from the bed.I glanced at my clock and it read past three in the morning. I was going to be up by four. I could as well just work out before then.I staggered a little, the alcohol from earlier still in my stomach and a wave of dizziness hit me stopping me in my tracks. My head
Mikhail."So right here, I'll input the business plan and the budget the company is willing to go for. Mr Jones wouldn't have any issue with the supervisors who would represent you at the site. And also Mrs Diana has sent you the revenue for project Beta so that should be out of the-""Are you sure this is the right place?" I cut off Zazh who was working on the reports I didn't do. He glanced at me curiously and then at the window to overlook the outskirts of the city we drove into.The roads were bad and the shops were run down. Paintings peeled off buildings and they appeared like uncompleted ones, but because of the curtains in windows I knew people lived there.The streets were crooked with bumps we fell into, it was littered with dirt and I looked away from the disgu
**This chapter is dedicated to RG for the amazing comment you left a few chapters ago. I appreciate your thoughts on the book and it means a lot. Please keep on encouraging. Thank you ♥️Mikhail.It wasn't until night before I had to leave the office. Zach hadn't been wrong when he said I had so much pending work. Coupled with having not slept at night, and with Ava's case and meeting Adrik at tonight at the club. I was starting to feel the effect of today on my body.I walked into my office, throwing my iPad on the desk before flopping on the sofa just at the end of the wall. Closing my eyes for a bit, my phone vibrated in my pocket and I checked to see a message from Karina asking if she should come over for dinner.I responded with a no before g
**This chapter is dedicated to Diana RzG, Shawna LeBouthillier and RG😭 Words can't express how grateful I am for your continuous support. I'm extremely happy to see how you enjoy reading the book. Thank you so much guys♥️ I love you all♥️Ava.The moment Mikhail's look landed in mine, I felt everything stop. My breathing, my heartbeat, the blood pumping in my veins. My emotions, the anger that flowed through me at the treatment of Mikhail, grabbing me out like that, the fear from Adrik vanished and I was empty.But the moment his lips moved engulfing mine, everything rushed in at once, but not the fear not anger no, instead bliss, pure sweetness touching my tongue and I wanted to push him away but every shred of dignity I had left shredded away.
**This chapter is dedicated to Jennifer McDonald for your amazing comment on the last chapter. ♥️Ava.Madam Han was ruthless in her training. But it was only then I realized I wasn't a true waitress. Since the party was in a medieval setting as a masquerade ball, we were taught exactly how to behave.The right way to pour a drink, give a cutlery and how to bow to the different guests that would be arriving.At the end of the four hours training, I was already tired but there was no time to rest as we were given bathrooms to shower and change into the outfits that were provided for us.The guy who I had been talking to, who finally told
**This chapter is dedicated to Mea Acosta Ligutan for your awesome review. And to Nichola Boyd and Black Widow for your support, You're appreciated ♥️Ava.The rest of the day, I couldn't sleep. I was nervous, scared of meeting Karina. I remembered the first time we had met and the embarrassment she had caused me.I didn't want that to happen again.I sighed, turning on the bed as I looked out the window. The sun was shining through the window blinds, I had just an hour left before I had to go to the event center.It was an evening event and I was supposed to be there before it started to get dressed and find my position.I groaned, standing up from the bed and going to wash my face in the bathroom before grabbing my things and heading out of Jayden's apartment.It was best I started my journey now in case something happened again. I found Jayden in the sitting room, he was deeply engrossed in
Ava.The fork clattered loudly on my plate as my eyes widened in shock. Jayden's words surprised me.He just asked me to be his girlfriend?I had thought he didn't like me anymore since high school. Then he had a huge crush on me but I had tagged him as a playboy and bad boy. Who would have thought he would turn out this successful.I didn't know what to say. I wasn't expecting this and my feelings weren't certain either. I couldn't say I didn't like him in a romantic but I couldn't say I did either.Jayden was sweet, caring and really helpful to me these past few days and it seemed unfair not to like him after all he had done for me.A part of me felt guilty even I thought of Mikhail immediately. There was this connection that I was having with Mikhail that wasn't there with Jayden.And whole I couldn't say I liked Mikhail completely, I couldn't deny that I felt attracted to him. The time on his jet had flow
Mikhail.I couldn't sleep.Fragments of my past flashed across my head as I turned to my side in the bed. The room was dimly lit with my curtains opened so I wouldn't feel claustrophobic.After spending so much time in that dark basement, I had developed a fear of dark small spaces and my glass walls were built so I could see outside and not feel locked up in my room, no matter how big it was.I sighed, dropping my hand on my head as I blinked my eyes open. Zeus laid silently beside me and I didn't want to move once more or else he would wake up.I tried to sleep again, shutting my eyes sharply and taking a deep long breath. Today had been stressful with everything going on at the company and my undivided attention didn't help to speed things up.Zach had complained and asked me to visit the hospital to renew my beds, but I didn't want to. Taking the medication made me seem weak and pathetic. The inhaler never left
Ava.I took off my name tag and dropped it on the table as I yawned. We were done for the day and for the first time everyone was silent as they changed out of their outfits and got dressed in their regular clothings.Even Willow was silent as she yawned loudly, I guess the stress from last night as well as this night was already taking a toll on her."I will be leaving now." Lisa said not waiting for anyone to respond as she opened the door and slammed it shut immediately."Same here. See you all tomorrow." Willow said before following Lisa out as she dragged her bag along with her tiredly."I can't wait to get home." Olivia said as she reached for he
**This chapter is dedicated to Glynis Phillips, Sienna, Kristina Smitaite, Nichola Boyd, Shawna LeBouthiller, Diana RzG and Marita Anam Aftab for your patience, comments and support. I appreciate them♥️Ava."I'm sure you all had a blast yesterday." Aiden said.We were in the dressing room getting ready for work when Aiden had walked in just as Willow was telling us about the guy who had tried to hit on her when she had gotten home.It was starting to get hard remembering which guy she talked about. According to her, every guy was thirsting for her. I resisted the urge to roll my eyes and we all nodded.Apparently, it was only Willow who was as agile as a fox like last night hadn't happened.
Mikhail.I parked my car in front of the house that I once called home, a mansion where I tried to leave all the memories of my childhood behind but instead it followed me around, buried in my subconsciousness and waiting for the right moment to jump out and remind me that I wasn't the tough, arrogant person I thought I was.Slamming my hand against the steering I wanted to scream into the night and drive off without anyone noticing I was here, but it was too late for that, if I really wanted to see her. I had to do so today.I picked my phone and glanced at the text Zach had sent me earlier."Your father has gone on a trip for a few days, if you want to see her, you have to do so today." It read and I squeezed the phone in my hand before throwing it on the pa
**This chapter is dedicated to Kristina Smitaite, Crystal rotter, Nichola Boyd and Diana Fabijance for your continuous support. I appreciate you guys♥️Ava.When Mikhail and I got back to his room I couldn't help the blush that filled my cheeks, as I sat on his bed with Zeus on my lap waiting for him to attend to whosoever was at the door.The memories of the kiss we shared on the jet replayed in my head. I hadn't expected to make the first move, but seeing Mikhail under the sun set had moved me greatly, it was a beautiful sight, him and the sunset. I had been so busy that I had never stopped to see the sun set, it's beautiful mesmerised me and I drowned in it.The feeling of Mikhail's lips on my mind brought a soft smile to my lips as I touched it, the lingering feeling tingled under my fingers and I closed my eyes, reimagining it once more."What are you thinking of?" I heard a voice and jumped up to see Mikhail walk into the
