All Chapters of His Locked Soul: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Lia’s POV I gaze at the figure in front of me. Is that me? Wearing cream suit with simple pearl choker and bracelet. It is not a dress I will choose for a love knot, but others will not doubt it on the intention of marriage. The diamond ring glitters on my finger, which is admired by our parents, friends, and family. Speaking of friends and family, where are Alyssa and Mitch? As if they get their cue, they enter the room. This room is in Lucian’s parents’ villa where our marriage is about to happen next hour. The room belongs to Lucian, but I am occupying it for the past two days. Thankfully he went on a business trip and has returned only this morning. “Are you ready, Lia?” Alyssa looks at me from top to toe. “Are you sure, Lia?” Mitch asks in a worrisome face. She still does not thi

Lia's POV Four Days! It's been four days since we are back at Lucian's home. And three days since I moved here. I scarcely set my foot out between packing, moving, and unpacking things. Tomorrow I will be joining Luc's office as his Associate. I will join in the name of Adelia Wentworth; in fact, I haven't changed my name to Adelia Alastair. Somehow the name Adelia Alastair doesn't ring a bell as good as Adelia Wentworth. As usual, I zone out of my thoughts and late for my night out with my friends. I am meeting Als and Mitch for dinner tonight. I rarely see Lucian in the four days. Once he dropped me at home, he just left to office. At least thoughtful to leave James to pack my things from my house. God, I am on the verge of crying, thinking about how I packed from my home. Even though my dad and mom braced a smile, the unshed tears

Luc's POV My hands trace the paperweight while watching the presentation. The meeting is set to discuss our next steps on the Eurasian expansion, and David is providing the pointers based on his recent visit to Japan. A junior-level executive could have presented better. I doubt if he prepared the content or he just delegated the work to his subordinates. He is becoming more and more nervous seeing my poker face. To think he is appointed to take care of Europe and Asia, Were you, serious Dad? Finally, the lights are on, and all the board turn for my reaction. It's time to check if the board finds the flaws I have caught in the presentation. "What is your opinion about this expansion?" my question is posted in general. "This is an excellent opportunity for our growth. Considering the m

Lia’s POV I rush into the office and find James waiting for me. His confused expression tells me that he is clueless. “Is Lucian in yet?” “He is still on the meeting. He will be here in another 30 min. What is the matter, Lia?” “It is about Aviation International” James’ puzzlement becomes deeper. “What’s with Aviation International?” “Before that, can you tell me what Lucian’s decision on Negotiation is?” “Why do you want to know it? Out of the blue, you called stating to discuss something important. Then, without giving any information, you want to know about Lucian’s decision on Aviati

Lia's POV I look up, hearing a soft tap. I see Luc standing at the door. His face doesn't show any emotions, so that I cannot deduct his mood. Why has he come? Does he want to question more about morning? I am sure my face is full of questions. "Are you not coming for the meeting?" I am more confused. "What meeting?" "The follow-up meeting for the Eurasian merger. Cindy had sent you the meeting invite in the morning." "But..." "But what?" Is he playing with me? My anger sprouts slowly. "I don't know if you are playing with me. You have men
