"So, you've been staying at Mr. Ingram's place when I was out of town huh" Heather teased. "Looks like you two are getting serious."
Diana pinched her waist, the other tried to evade it.
"Ow.. hahahaha" Heather laughed at Diana's blushing face. "I hit the nail then."
"Psh!"
"Since you've met the whole family and they like you a lot.. Will I be the maid-of-honor then?"
"Geez… Lucas hasn't mentioned anything like that. And we've only dated a while, it's too soon to talk about marriage."
"Mehh.. seems to me like he has already made your affairs as his."
"Hmm.. he has been helping me a lot with my family matters."
"Uh-huh.. Not just that, you're practically living in his house already

When Love Blooms Finally Old Friends
It was the day for Old Madam Elizabeth Turner's 80th Birthday celebration. Guests have started pouring in, in The Shining Star. At the front, Stanley Turner greeted the guests coming in. Inside, the old lady sat in the middle seat, greeting and thanking the guests for coming to her celebration. Veronica was sitting next to her, her neck craning, checking to see if Lucas had arrived. When it was already almost time for the program to start and still no sign of the Ingram family, Veronica was about to excuse herself when her father came in with Hugh Ingram, Emma, Dwayne and Morris. Veronica was getting anxious, when finally she also saw Lucas. Only then she sighed in relief and her face shone brightly. "Hello Uncle Hugh, Aunt Emma. Dwayne, Morris….Lucas… How are you?" Veronica greeted, her gaze locked on Lucas. "Happy birthday, Mrs. Turner." Hugh greeted the old lady. "Ha

That evening, Diana has just finished getting ready to go to the Winchester Family's house. "Will you be telling them about meeting your real family?" Heather asked. Diana paused. She contemplated for a while. "I've been thinking, it would be a different scenario if my real family turned out to be like other families. They won't bat an eyelash if they think my real family is beneath them. They will most probably happily let me go my way. But since that is not how it is, don't you think they'll try to keep me close instead?" "Hmmm.. Most likely, yes. Since your mom turned out to be from the Griffin Family which belongs to the Great 7 and not just an unknown person, and even your dad is actually the best surgeon in the country who is also known internationally, they would probably curry favor instead." Heather surmised. Diana plopped on the couch. "Yeah.. just the thing I don't want. I've been

The elders Vergil, Regina, Osmond, Vanessa and the newlyweds Chantal and Henry were already in their seats. As soon as Diana and Lucas entered the dining room, Osmond, Vanessa, Chantal and Henry stood up in greeting, mainly Lucas as if he was a Crown Prince gracing them with his presence. Such a change from how they treated him before knowing his identity. Chantal and Henry could still recall that time when they found out, when they got kicked out of The Waterfront Well. Chantal wondered how Diana was able to catch Lucas's attention. Diana dresses simply and has a dull job. She also doesn't mingle with society that much. Henry stared at the two, wondering how long until Lucas will discard Diana. Apart from that time when he saw the two kissing and some minor public displays of affection, he doesn't believe Diana has given him her chastity. Lucas will surely get bored with her. And even if she

The next day, women from all over the country who follow the entertainment news, most especially those who follow the going ons of the Great 7, were busy as a bee talking about the latest gossip. Their eyes were stuck on a particular page of the magazine. On it was a headline 'Ingram and Turner: wedding bells?' attached were photos of Veronica sitting next to Lucas and there were also some of the whole Ingram family with Veronica at the same table. They have implied that both families have a close relationship and the two individuals have a romantic attachment. Even the forums in Chatify were busy with this topic. "What?! Lucas Ingram already has a girlfriend?" "This is the first time I'm hearing of it!" "Check this out! Looks like their fathers have been close friends since College." "No wonder their families have a good relationship." &n

Diana stirred awake, letting her eyes adjust to her surroundings. "Where are we?" She could hear the waves crashing on rocks. She could smell the beach and feel the cool breeze. "The beach?" She was wide awake now. "But I didn't bring my swimsuit.." She pouted. Lucas chuckled. "I got everything ready. Come on. Let's go." She followed Lucas out and walked towards a big mansion. "Yours?" "No. Haha.. You'll find out later." Diana wondered at this mysterious feel Lucas is going for. As soon as they entered, confetti was blown up and screams could be heard, "Surprise!!!" Diana indeed jumped in surprise. Looking around, she saw Lucas's family, Griffin Family, Anderson Family and even Heather. "It's late but.." Heather started. "Happy birthday!!!" Everyone screame

On one corner, someone from the band had a sudden realization. "This voice, and this arrangement. It's just too familiar." After the performance, the two bowed and left the stage. However, Lucas held back Diana. He was also holding a microphone. Diana wondered if Lucas would say a speech and if the party has ended already. "Everyone, may I have your attention, please." All of the people had their eyes on Lucas and Diana in the middle of the stage. "As you all know, Diana and I are in a relationship. I admit it hasn't been that long since our story began. But in my 30 years of being in this lifetime, I have always thought that the person who is meant for me only will come eventually and that there is no need for me to seek it purposefully. I could only make myself into a man that could protect, provide and love her when she enters my life. And she

Back at the Turner Family's house, Veronica was having a relaxing bath in her room. The lights were dim, mostly illuminated by the candlelights. She was soaking herself in a bath with rose petals floating on top of it as she listened to relaxing music in her speaker that was connected to her phone. She had a playlist saved in the Chatify app. She was in a good mood, just remembering the events from earlier. 'Surely, Lucas will make a move on me now. He'll realize that I'm really serious about him and that we're meant to be together. They wouldn't deny it. After all, I'm their childhood friend. I'm sure they will cooperate with this piece of news.' She thought as she hummed to the tune the music was playing until it got cut off. She lifted the slices of cucumber from her eyes and took her phone, checking why the music stopped playing. The app suddenly froze. She tried to exit the app but can't do it so she forcefull

The next morning, Lucas had his eyes closed but became wide awake in an instant after Diana's words. "Come again? Can you repeat what you just said?" Lucas asked. "I was wondering if I can change what's on my birth certificate. Like changing the names of my parents and also my surname." Diana said in a small voice, her head resting on his bare chest. "Hmmm.. If that is what you want to do, we can make that happen. Pierpont can handle all that." He assured her. "Will the events from the past come to surface because of that?" She lifted her head to look at him. "Yes. It is necessary. There should be a proper reason for correcting the data on your birth certificate. So for that, everything will have to come to light. You don't have to worry about it. We only seek the truth." Diana nodded. Later that day, Lucas made a call to Pi

When Love Blooms Finally Catching Up
Lillian, Ernest and the rest arrived at the airport and were quickly assisted through the process. They were able to leave the airport and head to their residence easily. Adrian looked around and saw that everything seemed strange in his eyes. Nothing was familiar to him. It was when they were finally close to the mansion when he recognized the structure. He had dreamt of this place so many times. It had become hazy at some point. But now, he could see that this was more or less the place he lived in before he was taken. It had some new additions along with other changes such as the paint and the landscape design. But the overall structure was the same. As they entered the gates, he saw that there were a lot of people outside of the house. They were lined up even in this cold weather. Most of them seemed to be wearing uniforms under their black coats. The only ones who looked different than the others were the three couples and two young men. “Ah.. Everyone’s here.” Emma smiled
When Love Blooms Finally Taking Luck Away
Adrian and Violet were apprehensive when they saw the big plane that they were going to ride on.Fortunately for them, they were flying through the private plane of the Lovell family, else, they would be even more embarrassed by the way they were acting.To their memory, this was their first time being on any plane.That simply was not true for Adrian, as the family had gone on vacations before that needed the plane. It’s just that this memory may have been forgotten by Adrian already.As for Violet, this was her first ever flight.They at least knew what a plane was.They were only anxious as to how they would feel once they’re already up in the air.Lillian and the rest tried to distract them from these thoughts.Hugh and Leroy offered them some wine and snacks.Emma and Priscilla showed them the movies they could watch on the screen in front of their seat.Lillian especially made sure they felt warm and comfortable, giving them blankets and pillows, showing them how to recline thei

“Yes, Dad. Alright–Mn..Goodnight.” Lucas said to Hugh on the phone.Hugh had called him to let him know that they would be heading back in the morning with Adrian and his friend, Violet.Hugh and Leroy’s secretaries have received updates regarding a background check on Violet’s family.They’ve decided to let Violet stay with the Lovell family as a guest.In the residence, there’s usually only the elders living with their staff. Usually, it would be busier during holidays and if there are any special occasions. In those times, everyone would gather in the residence and stay in their rooms reserved for them.Lillian and Ernest have held out hope that Adrian would return to them so they never thought of letting anybody else use it.Lillian would personally clean it and it was only in the later years that she let her staff help her.She wanted to preserve whatever remaining scent Adrian had left.There were times when she would burst out in tears, realizing that she could no longer recall
When Love Blooms Finally Burden
Soon, the driver, John Garcia, pulled up outside of the hotel where Lillian and the rest were staying.Adrian was no longer as anxious as he was half an hour ago, still he could still remember the bullets trying to penetrate through the car and the explosion after those goons’ cars had collided.Detective Jones glanced at him, noticing how pale Adrian was.Still, he commended him for not breaking down and not getting in their way.And also, because of him, they were able to rescue so many people who have been missing for years.Perhaps the Mayor might even think of rewarding Adrian because of his contribution.At the moment though, it was inappropriate to bring it up, given what the man had just experienced.So after escorting them to the hotel, Detective Jones left them, joining the other Officers with the rescued people.It was a field day for the reporters, gathering outside the police department.On the televisions of most households, they showed several people with their heads lo

As John Garcia was driving the car forward, everyone in the car held their breaths.They already knew that those people were Mortimer’s men. They could only play along for now, hoping for them to think that Adrian was in the other cars.But then–that possibility is very low.The black car they’re in was far from ordinary upon close inspection.And like clockwork, shots rang.Adrian ducked, covering his head with his arms.John Garcia gripped the steering wheel while Howard Dawson and Detective Jones cocked their guns.A voice of one of the policemen came on the comms. “Keep going. Follow the second group!”No matter what, they couldn’t let Adrian and the people who had just been rescued be in Mortimer’s hands again.John Garcia didn’t hesitate and quickly sped on.Mortimer’s men have picked the road where there’s only farm crops on each side, the road only leading one way.The city was still quite far so blending in or hiding in some alleyway would still be impossible.For now, they s

The drive was calm, with John Garcia, the driver not making any stops if he could help it.The car could drive even without gas as it can run on solar power.It could be recharged at a charging station, could store gas and could be powered through solar. This is all thanks to the upgrades done by the Lovell Technologies.With the drive being calm, Adrian fell to sleep.Even Detective Jones dozed off as well, his head hitting the window a couple of times.An hour into the drive, the car suddenly beeped in alarm.Adrian and Detective Jones groaned, having been woken up by the alarm.“What is it? What’s happening?” Detective Jones asked.“There seems to be an accident up ahead.” John Garcia answered, pointing at the GPS shown on the screen in front of him.“Is there another road we can take?” The bodyguard, Hoyt Cole asked.“This is the only road back to Westbury..” John Garcia answered.“Maybe the road is not totally blocked–” Detective Jones said.“Alright then–we’ll keep going..”“Sta
When Love Blooms Finally Rescued
After canvassing the full layout of the building and accounting the number of people inside, Detective Jones and the other Officers made their strategic plan.An hour later, they made their move.Adrian was made to stay in the car while he viewed their perspective from the tablet device.He was given eyes for different cameras. Two more Officers were also monitoring it from their tablet devices.They compared every person found to the sketches from Adrian’s description of the people held captive. And also of the ones Adrian said were the people who ordered them around.Adrian watched as the trained Officers infiltrated the area covertly.CCTV cameras were hacked and made to play the same view over and over again.They knocked out the guards with tranquilizers, making sure they wouldn’t be waking up so soon.They were separated into groups. One made way to the sleeping quarters of the captives, another entered the main building, and another surrounded all possible exits.There were onl

Adrian held her hand, squeezing it.At that moment, Hugh returned to the room and was startled by the silence.“What happened?” He asked. His eyes wandered to Violet who now had her head lowered, her hand covering her eyes and her shoulders shaking.‘Is she crying?’ His brows furrowed.“Violet just remembered what happened that time when she was taken away.” Emma summarized it for him.He nodded. “By the way–I’ve just received information just now. Violet–it has something to do with you. If this is not a good time, I won’t say it.”She looked up, quickly wiping her tears with the cloth napkin.“No, please, I want to hear it.”Hugh nodded.“What is it, Hugh?” Emma asked.“It’s about her family.”They all glanced at Violet, gauging her reaction.“I remember–my mother died that time.” She said.Hugh nodded, confirming what she had remembered.Her heart fell. Deep inside, she was hoping that she was wrong. That she remembered it wrongly.Tears continued to fall down her cheeks. The napkin

Knock. Knock.“I’ll go get it..” Emma said.She opened the door and saw her younger brother, Adrian.“Ah.. Adrian.. What is it?”Adrian was startled.He stepped back to check if he knocked on the correct room or not.“You have something you need from Violet?” She smiled.His brows shot up. “Oh. Um–I was going to bring her to the dining room.”“Ah.. I see. Well, just in time. We’re done here as well.” Emma smiled. She turned her head and called over. “Come on you two..”“Okay!” Priscilla said. “Let’s go Violet..”Priscilla brought Violet over.Adrian was struck for a moment when he saw Violet.He had never seen her so dolled up.Her hair was beautiful and so is her overall look. Her face was even more beautiful than usual.Violet’s head hung as her cheeks blushed bright red.Adrian cleared his throat.“Let’s go..” Adrian tilted his head.“Mn.” Violet nodded.
