CALISTA RAYMONDS I woke up the next morning and walk down the stairs to the kitchen. Since Chase said he fired the maids, I have to wake up early to make breakfast. I hate it though but I think it's time I get back to my feet and start doing things. Yawning, I look around the kitchen and then look at the refrigerator, seriously I don't even know what to cook. And to top it all, I don't know what's Chase's favourite meal otherwise I could have prepare it and I don't want to ask him about it. He's still sleeping though. After some minutes of just standing and thinking, I finally settled to make noodle soup and por pia...Soon the food was ready and I return to the dining room to set up the table and that was when Chase walks in. "You're awake? Good Morning" I said to him and he just nodded. I look at him and he looks like someone who barely even sleep, his eyes were somehow heavy and it seems he was awake all night. "I'll get you coffee first while I dish out the fo
CALISTA RAYMONDSI walk out of the house and saw Tyrell standing by the car and staring at the door, he seems to me waiting for as he smiles at me the moment he saw me.I approach him and stop as he looks at me. "Chase asked me to get some clothes, do you think you can accompany me to a boutique?" He nods. "Sure, get in"Without hesitation, I happily open the door and sat down. Tyrell enters the driver's side and starts the car then drive out of the compound. I lean back on the car as I listen to the slow music playing in the car. I must say Tyrell have a good taste in music.The music was just a slow one, the type that you can listen when you want to clam yourself down. I look over at Tyrell and he was looking a little bit distracted. He haven't said any word to me since we entered the car and that was unlike him. Tyrell will always want to engage me in a conversation while he drives but today seems to be different and it was just like he's lost in thought. I tap his shou
CALISTA RAYMONDS "What?" I almost exclaim after Tyrell was done narrating the issue for me. "Lower your voice. This should be between us, I'm not meant to tell anyone this but I trust you."I nods and look around us then back at him. "You're sure he's Chase's uncle's son?" I asked him and he nods."Wow!" I muttered and lean on the chair as I think about everything he have said again. Chase didn't quite believe him not because he don't trust him but because Grayson have been his friend.To think the Grayson of a guy already tempered with the result and didn't bother hiding it from Tyrell, that means that even if it's true, the result is going to come out Negative and Tyrell will have his tasks withdrawn. "He must have really trusted him so much. " I said sighing and Tyrell nod. "So... What do you wanna do now?" I asked him and he instead drink the wine in the glass before looking at me again. "I don't know. I think I need to see Chase's brothers. If I have my tasks withd
CALISTA RAYMONDS "You can go back too your post now and don't worry, I promise to convince Chase for you" I told Tyrell and he smiles."Thank you".. I nods and carried the shopping bag into the sitting room.My mind couldn't get over the conversation I had with Tyrell. He took his time to explain to me about Chase's Mafia life. Just like I have assumed early, Chase have enemies that will do anything to bring him down. I don't know why but I don't see myself backing out. Right now, I believe there's one thing I can do for Chase, and that is finding Madison's killer. "You're back?" I heard Chase's voice and I turn to look over .He was sitting on the couch, backing me and pressing him phone. I smiled. "Yes.""You didn't quite spend much than I think. I thought you're greedy" Chase said and I roll my eyes when he said the last part. "Stop teasing me. Why? Why did you come back early..?" I asked him even though Tyrell already told me he'll be back early cause he have less
"Chase.... Are you okay? Are you feeling sick or anything?" I asked him as I touch his forehead. "What?" I sigh and turn back to cleaning where he just messed up so I can cook another thing. "You're acting strange. You don't have to be nice to me just to cover up the fact that you're a total jerk" I told him plainly. "Take back your words.." he said and I laughs. "You're a total jerk" I said to him again smiling. "How about you let the jerk kiss you?" He whispered in my ears and I shivered.I turn to look at him, surprised of his behaviour which I think is way to much. Chase holds my cheeks and made me look at him in the eyes. One thing I can't resist. Is he trying to manipulate me again? There's no way I'm going to fall to his dirty tricks again , not after I have build myself up to stop making approach on him. "Hey! What do you think you're doing?" I asked him. But before I can say another word, Chase place his lips on mine and kisses me passionately. There's no w
I don't know how long I have been leaning on the door, but all I know is that I'm hurting. Chase's behavior is just unpredictable. It hurts me even more hearing him say all those words. If I can push back the hand of the clock, I'd wish I never developed feelings for Chase in the first place. Now, I have to do everything to prove my love for him. I don't care if he's a Bad boy or a good boy. All I know, Is that I want to be right by his side in whatever he does. I don't see myself giving up on him easily. I have never imagined myself falling this hard for someone like Chase but here comes Fate, with the least expected. Over these days, I have try to avoid having such discussion with him because I wanted to believe the hard truth that he doesn't even feel a thing for me. But hearing him say right there that he loves but can't protect me makes me want to believe something will definitely happen between us. A knock on my door startled me, I stood up and opened the door an
CALISTA RAYMONDS it's been three hours since I was in the room, crying my eyes out but I feel better now. Nothing can hurt you more than seeing the one you loves every single day and knowing he can never be yours. In as much as I'm determined to make Chase mine, I can't force myself on him. Forcing myself on him just because I love him and can't control my feelings can only make me get hurt even more. If he loves me, he should come to me and that's it. I walked down the stairs tiredly. After crying, I have become even more weak but there's no way I'm going to stay in my room all day. It time I get to control my feelings so I don't fall and hurt even more. Chase was sitting on the couch with his laptop, I didn't know when he came back though but I'm glad he's back and he's fine. I worry about him getting hurt after seeing him getting attacked . I know he can protect himself but it's okay to worry about him. Glancing at him, I reached the end of the stairs and withou
Emma walked into Waylen's bedroom carrying a tray of food. Smiling, she dropped it on the table in front of him. He have been on his laptop since morning and haven't take any rest, he haven't eaten anything too and Emma have to go and make him lunch. She closed his laptop and this made Waylen too look up at her with an angry expression but the expression fades away when he saw it was Emma. "Hey .. I didn't hear you walk in"Waylen said and lean on the chair while looking at Emma who rolled her eyes at him."Because you've been busy . What are you working on? You've been in this room since morning with your laptop" Emma told him and he sigh then smile. "Why? You miss me that much?" He smirk and Emma hiss silently pushing the plates to him."I made you lunch. At least eat something before you continue anything. I won't be happy if you fall sick " Emma told him and he just smiled like a kid. He nods. "Okay!""Let me know when you're done eating. I'll come clear the table up,hu
