All Chapters of THE STOLEN BRIDE (BAD BOYS SERIES): Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

“It’s really a pleasure to have you here, Mr. Heirta.” Usually, Lucas was not a fan of small talks. Especially when he was aware that those people only wanted to be close to him in hopes of getting to his good side for their own benefit. Yet, to Eve’s surprise, she was here, watching Lucas as he exchanges useless words with the school’s dean who even came here after his presence was informed. “As well as mine. And I think, I’ll even came here more in the future.” His words made the dean’s eyes twinkle. “That’s our honor, sir! Actually, we’re surprised that our student here, Theodore Rizzo, is your son. It’s just that he’s not carrying your last name so…” The old dean’s eyes fell on Theo who was in Lucas’s arms and was sleeping. The activities today might have drained him that he fell asleep the moment Lucas carried him. “Well, we’re not far from that,” Lucas answered, throwing a meaningful glance at Eve. Eve wanted to roll eyes at him. He kept having his ways today. And i

Remembering Shia’s betrayal, she rolled her eyes and glared at Shia. Yet, the betrayer was guiltless and she even waved with a smile at her. She was cheering on her! “But I can walk!” she told Lucas but he just laughed. “But you can also escape again. And I won’t let you do that.” Pouting, Eve just eat her own embarrassment and shut up. She was defeated. And it was Shia’s fault! Remembering Shia’s betrayal, she rolled her eyes and glared at Shia. Yet, the betrayer was guiltless and she even waved with a smile at her.

“I never expected to meet you here.” Eve took a sip of the ice tea Faye ordered for here and eyed her observingly. Unlike before, Faye looked rather humble which was the opposite of what she was years ago. When Eve and her was still in the same class, she was always arrogant and mean. Especially towards her. Still, the competitiveness in her eyes was still there. Faye was never a bad girl to begin with. She was kind to others. Perhaps, its her desire to be better than Eve in ballet that made her become mean towards her. “Yeah, me too.” Faye replied shortly, somewhat embarrassed. “If you don’t mind, can I ask you something?” Faye met Eve’s eyes intently and a smile curled in her lips. “You wanted to ask what happened to me after you give up the opportunity to be an international ballet dancer to me?” Eve paused. “I didn’t give it up to you-” Faye laughed softly but there was no hint of anger in her tone. “I know you purposely jumped in the

This son of hers… sometimes him being so intelligent in words and memory was too troublesome. Even his love for her can be sometimes too much. What was he thinking, trying to catch Lucas so he can bring him back in their home? To what? To let her hug Lucas instead of his picture? “Damn.” Eve cursed under her breath and run even faster. She just wanted to disappear right now. Such embarrassment… she couldn’t take it. As Lucas watch the woman running as she carried a little boy in her arms, he couldn’t help but grit his teeth. He was overwhelmed with mixed emotions. Anger. Disappointment. Longing. And desperation.

“You just said what?!” “I said, give me Morris Hierta’s number,” Eve repeated impatiently but it wasn’t what Shia was asking of. Thus, with the same impatient voice, she answered back, “No, not that one. It’s what you said before that.” Eve paused for a moment and thought of what she said before. She even combed her hair using her fingers since she had been thinking a lot since the day that Theo had disappeared. And trying to think further frustrates her. “You mean, me being back here?” “HELL YES!” That was Shias blurt out. It was obvious that she was already sulking for not telling her beforehand. “I’ve been convincing you for like ages to visit me and you never did even for once. And
