“Mommy, who is that girl?” Inside the elevator, Ivan could not get over the image of his uncle Eric and the woman he was holding because aside from his grandmother, Rosy, and his mom, Arabella, Ivan had never seen his uncle Eric with another woman. As of the moment, his genius brain didn’t give him an accurate answer base on his analysis. “I… I don’t know dear. I think she’s one of your uncle’s friends.” Arabella answered pacifying his curiosity. She didn’t know what to say as she was also in a maze. Eric didn’t say anything about this girl. From the way he gripped her waist, Arabella could find it intimate knowing Eric who’s not a playboy and was a serious gentlemanly person. The only thing that bothered her was Rosy. Is it because of her closeness to Rosy that Eric hid the girl from her? For now, that’s the only reason she could think of. For her, whatever Eric’s decision, she would respect it. If he is really in love with the girl, she would be happy with his brother, Eri
“Dad, I’m here.” Trishia came after Sen. Meyer summoned her.“Aren’t you ashamed calling me dad? Look Trishia, I realized that you can’t be my daughter. You are too useless to be one. Well, it’s my fault that I adopt you but then, you see even if I dressed you up with money and elegance, you still look so dumb to me. I just wasted my time and money on you.” Sen. Meyer sounded straightforward. “Enough dad! Enough!” A great pain directly penetrated her heart as she covered her ears afraid of hearing more of his cruel words. He never loved her as his real daughter. He just used her for his political career. “Stop calling me dad!” With his wooden cane, Sen. Meyer stomped it loudly on the ground. “Just go back to being a slave of your illusions and hallucinations.” “But dad, I can give you Bill Sky. I’m still just working on it.” After the scandal she had been through Trishia was already out of the limelight. She had no income and her mother was the only one who was sustaining her fr
After her show, the Enchantress went directly to her private dressing room. Of all the performers there, she had the best suite located backstage. It was like a mini room with her own vanity mirror where she could spend time putting on her own make-up and using the space to practice for her dance. It was part of her request to the manager of the bar. Facing the vanity mirror, she took off her mask. She looked at her reflection seriously when her phone rang. Looking at the caller, she quickly picked up.“Brother.” It was her younger brother. “Sister, help me! I’m at the police station now. They arrested me.” The boy on the other line cried out.“What? What have you done this time, Anthony?” She roared in shock and panicked. “It’s not me! It’s Michel and Dennis. They told me to take a package to an address in exchange for a big commission. But the policemen arrested me and got the package.” Anthony explained proving his innocence.“What’s inside the package?” Without any calmne
Arabella started to wonder why on earth she was with him again? Why on earth she was inside his place?Is she really going to be his contractual woman again? Could she really have the guts to refuse his charm?Huh!The charming monster. The cruelest of all.The domineering maniac but really the best of all the best in bed. Nah...She had to make a way to get rid of her problem and then him. She kept on drinking and whimpering until Bill sat beside her. She was like floating in the air already as the alcohol started to take over her. "Sleep with me." He muttered calmly but his tone was deep.His eyes were sincere. She could tell but she was too tipsy to appreciate it. "No... no way!" She refused then smiled. Her eyes were silky then after a quick second, he became a blurry silhouette. That was the last thing she remembered. Massaging her forehead, she confirmed that she collapsed last night. She quickly jumped out of bed then her eyes started to wander around the huge eleg
Eric was so furious about what happened to his Aunt Rita. He could not believe that she could do it as he knew her to be a tough woman. For him, she was an epitome of a strong character. It was so sudden to him. Her death was so sudden. Eric had to fly back abroad to check on Rosy and his Uncle Byer. Before he jumped out the bed, he quickly dialed someone on his phone.“About the girl of my uncle,” Eric’s tone was dangerous. “Sir, what about her?” The suspense of the tone on the other line appeared.Gritting his teeth, his eyes were murderous. “…torture her but keep her alive. I want to kill her by myself. Clear?” He ordered soullessly. “Right away, sir.” The person on the other line quickly answered.After the call, Eric started to grab his things and put them in his travel bag. With a heavy heart, he looked at the black suit hanging inside his wardrobe then he remembered his Aunt Rita when she was still alive.“Happy birthday! I have a surprise for you, son!” His aunt Rita
One morning, Arabella received another call from Sen. Meyer. Her heartbeat started to elevate. She could sense this call would ruin her day. She just stared at her cellphone not willing to answer the Senator as she was not prepared for him. She would never be prepared for him but thinking of his father’s situation, she gritted her teeth then she tapped the accept call button.“Finally, you answered.” The Senator sounded satisfied. She didn’t speak. Who would even want to talk to a hideous man like him? Who would even talk to a person who would put her in danger?“Arabella…” He called her name. “I know you are there listening.” He chuckled devilishly. “That’s right, just listen to me because I really need you to listen to me carefully.” His voice was deep and scary but she was not scared of him. If it were not only for her father, she would not follow him. She would fight for her life if it means her being free with him but the situation was different. The senator had a hosta
“She’s dead.” Trishia’s words made her shocked. Though she hated Alice Meyer, she never wished her ill. Arabella couldn’t believe it but knowing Trishia, she doubted her.“What do you mean?” Arabella just hoping at this time that Trishia was not telling the truth.“Well… if you tell me first your story about Bill Sky, I might give you what you want.” Trishia’s eyes were playful. Arabella knew she was up for something. “Oh no, dear! I know you so well. I can’t trust you.” Arabella said directly as she only had one thought at the back of her mind, ‘like father like daughter’ and she knew how cunning Trishia was.Trishia smirked seeing that Arabella was serious then she clapped her hands. “I can see you had a lot of guts now.” She looked at Arabella from head to toe. “It’s been a while my life got so boring without you.” She commented wickedly. “Maybe this time, my life will be overwhelmed with excitement since you came back.” She smiled provocatively but her eyes were killers.“Don’
“Mom! Are you there? Answer me if you are there!” Trishia was shouting at top of her lungs.She was sure that her mom didn’t leave the country.She had full of doubts about the senator’s words.Her mom was the only person who supported her all throughout.She could not afford to lose her mom.“Trishia, I told you to get out or I will drag you out!” The senator roared angrily.“I told you old man, I am not going anywhere without my mom!” Trishia answered courageously.“Huh! Why are you acting like a good daughter now? Trishia… do you want anything? Yeah, I know you, you will not see your mom if you don’t need money. Right?” Sen. Meyer’s tone was mocking at her. “How much do you need now? I can give you just get out of my sight immediately!” He ordered sternly.The senator’s voice was impatient.He wanted Trishia to get lost immediately.“Huh! You are wrong!” Trishia quickly refuted.“Huh! Then what do you want drugs? Come on Trishia, I know you very well. You will just see your mom if
