Trishia felt her face was bursting with mortification. She was liked punched with a metal fist by Bill’s words.
3 years ago, her father, Senator Meyer ran for President but he didn’t win. He lost a lot of money during his campaign so, his last resort was for his daughter to be married to the richest man in the city, Bill Sky. In his desperation, he took advantage of the mourning of Bill’s mom, Kelly.
“Senator Meyer, what brings you here?” Kelly welcomed him with a bright expression.
“Well. I am still at a loss of losing a good friend, Ed.” Senator Meyer’s expression looked gloomy in front of Kelly but when she’s not looking, his expression changed to a cunning fox.
“Yes. My husband was indeed a good friend.” Sipping her tea, Kelly smiled as she remembered the loving memory of her husband.
“Well…You know I am a good friend of your husband so if ever my
“I… I’m..” Trishia staggered. She knew what he had meant.“If you want to continue with that title, please behave yourself.” Bill sounded calm but his words somewhat carried awful threats.“Bill, you know that I love you. Why can’t you give me a chance?” Though intense fear running crazily over her, she still dared to ask.“I want to have a baby with you.”“I want to be your wife.” Trishia refused to stop today. She was enduring everything for a long time and yet she was nothing to him.“I don’t do romance.” Bill turned around and walked towards the glass wall. He looked outside with unfathomable eyes.“Then why could you treat me like you treated Ara…. that woman before?” She couldn’t afford to say Arabella’s name again.“I saw you kissing her and your desire for her. You lived with her and slept
Though her place was a bit chaotic, but she never encountered any danger for more than 1 year of stay in her apartment. This area was a little far from the city, but it catered to her budget. It was crowded with low-income workers from the city as this catered lots of small rooms at a reasonable price.Lira was alarmed. She walked fast as she could, but one man blocked her way.“Where do you think you are going my lady? Hehehe.” A man who blocked her cooed slightly tilted his head and spread his arms like he was ready to catch her.Lira didn’t know what to do. Beads of cold sweats appeared on her forehead. Her knees softened instantly. She took a step back instinctively, but she could feel another evil eye was staring at her back. Stopping in the middle, she looked around with her trembling body and found out she was surrounded by 3 men. She almost lost her balance as she wanted to faint. Her face had turned pale as she felt a great danger was
Damien didn’t respond. Lira was snapped to her senses. She hated herself for taking the initiative to kiss him. She wanted to choke herself and she wanted to disappear in front of him immediately. She stopped the kiss with her cheeks bursting hot in embarrassment. She regretted kissing him. She should have not crossed the border.How could she face Damien now?“I... I am sorr..” She was about to apologize but her lips were suddenly devoured by Damien. His kiss was rough and wild. Lira closed her eyes while Damien’s tongue swiftly entered her mouth wandering around. Lira hooked her two arms around his neck. Damien was pounding her and Lira could feel his erection in the middle of her thigh.Lira’s desire surged up and she could feel Damien had felt the same too.Suddenly the light came back.Damien stopped.He seemed snapped back to his senses. He quickly stood up and exited the room.“I
The night came for Celine’s awaited concert. It was held in the biggest event’s place in the city as the concert tickets were sold like hotcakes.It was dim inside when the crowd was surprised with the soft, euphonious piano piece soothing one’s soul.Then the candles lit up gradually. The serenity sounded like a good wave that everyone wanted to drown in.Quiet.Calm.Peaceful.That kind of music that craved one’s mind, heart, and soul.After a while, the spotlight turned on and focused on the girl standing in front, the star of the night, Celine.Then Celine sang one of her hits.The audience gave her an overwhelming standing ovation every after her impressive performance.On the other hand, Arabella had fun playing her piece but she stayed her head low all of the time. She didn’t dare to look at the crowd let alone the cameras.Tonight, she was wearing a very simple maxi flo
“Adam, are you bluffing to avoid your punishment?” Arabella was trying to calm herself but deep inside she was already in a mess. Adam never used such lame excuses for his wrongdoings.But it’s impossible!They were ten times fold away from capital Z.She tried all her best to hide from the crowd and cameras in the concert and yet, Adam here was telling he saw his father.He saw him.How’s that possible?Unless fate would play a trick on her again.No way!Arabella was deliriously fighting against her mind and refusing to believe Adam’s words. She was already unconsciously wringing her hands on the steering wheel as she wanted to scream to get rid of her agitation.“Forget about it, mom. Maybe I am wrong or I am right. I don’t know. It doesn't matter.” Without any clue that her mom was already freaking out secretly, Adam replied with an upset tone beneath his breath.
“Why are you so good to me?” For six years, she had not asked this question. She was just very thankful for everything that Damien came to her life and saved her.“Do I have to tell you? Isn’t that obvious?” William’s forehead lines deepened. He was looking at her so deeply.“Hmmm… Forget about it.” Arabella felt the sudden awkwardness in the air. She should have not asked him as she was not ready for his answer.“I love you.” With a deep serious voice, Damien expressed. He seemed ready to let everything out. Six years is enough for him to take the courage to confess his feelings.“Damien.” Arabella was stupefied.Her eyes met him.This was the only time she stared at Damien’s eyes. She felt something different that she couldn’t clearly decipher. It was an extreme familiarity but she couldn’t jolt a bolt out of the blue.How could she be s
“No! No! No!”“Dad, please don’t leave me!”“Dad, don’t leave us!”“Dad, wake up!”“Please wake up!”Arabella’s swollen eyes were filled with mist. Her strength was nowhere to be found. Her instinct was telling her not to let go of her father’s hand whatever happened. Lacking strength, she was still holding him with all her might but his hand slowly drifted away. Her grip glided bit by bit down to her father’s fingertips.“No, dad! Hold on to me!”“You can’t let go!”“Please!”Arabella tightened her grip though she didn’t know how much pressure she had put on it. She couldn’t just let go of his father otherwise he would fall to the bottomless water.Her nightmare brought her back 6 years ago. This was the reason why she always trembled in fright whenever she
“Yes?”“You mean, yes? We are together now? Are we officially together?” Damien had become ecstatic. His eyes went round and their inside glow was visible.“Yes, Damien.” Arabella smiled at him. Deep down inside her, she was delighted to see Damien’s expression brighten.She would not get tired of making him happy as to pay and show her gratitude to him.She should love Damien.Whatever it may cost her, she should give her love only to him.“Bella, I promised not to hurt you and take care of you and Adam. No one could hurt you again.” Damien suddenly hugged her. Then he kissed her on the forehead tenderly. He wanted to kiss her on the lips but Arabella dodge uneasily. He could sense she was not comfortable with it let alone ready for it.“Damien, I’m sorry. Let’s just take it slow if it’s okay with you.
