บททั้งหมดของ TWO FOR THE CEO: บทที่ 71 - บทที่ 80

CHAPTER 72When Nancy woke up the next morning, she was alone on her bed. She remembered going to bed with her children beside her, but now she couldn’t find them. Her alarm either didn’t wake her up or it didn’t go off.She glanced at the clock and it was already 8:54am. She shook her head, wondering how she stayed so long in bed. Being a Sunday, she knew Diana would have taken the boys to church.She got out of bed, did a light stretch and the events of yesterday came back flooding into her mind and she let it. She took it all in and then she pushed it away.She wasn’t going to be weak. It was a promise she had made to herself a long time ago. She was going to be strong for herself, for her boys and for Lloyd.Lloyd…..did he come back at any time yesterday? She wondered.She stepped into the bathroom and the sight that welcomed her flooded her heart with warmth and her face flushed. “Lloyd….” She muttered, playing with the locket he gave her, as a small smile crept upon her lips.He

CHAPTER 74“Red or Blue? Which color should I wear to the party tonight?” Angie asked Lucas who was sitting on her bed, while she was trying to pick an outfit for her friend’s birthday party that night.“What do you think?” Lucas asked back with a smirk on his face.“Blue. Of course it’s blue,” Angie replied with a sigh, putting the other dresses back in her closet. Blue was Lucas’ favorite color. She wanted to wear the red one but since he said blue, blue it was.Suddenly, they heard a knock on the living room door. “Expecting someone?” Lucas asked.“No….you?” “Here? Are you serious? Technically I’m not even supposed to be in the country and since when do I receive guests in your house? Go see who it is,” Lucas replied and he grunted, standing up from the bed to pour himself a drink as Angie left the room.The knock grew louder and harder, the longer she was taking to get it.“Who the hell is that animal? Do you want to breakdown the -” The rest of Angie’s words got stuck in her thr

CHAPTER 76“I know I’m pretty, but waking up to you staring at me like that is creepy,” Nancy said to Lloyd who had just been smiling to himself and admiring her in her sleep for over thirty minutes before she woke up.“No love, what’s creepy is the way you have so invaded my mind, that you are the only thing that I can think about,” Lloyd replied, flashing her a small smile.Nancy leaned in and kissed him. His soft and plump lips returned it with zest. The passion consumed them and they let it, enjoying the blend of each other’s taste.“Dad invited us to dinner,” Nancy said out of nowhere.Lloyd grimaced and Nancy already knew what his answer was going to be. She wasn’t still aware of Lucas’ true disposition but she knew Lloyd was still very mad at Lucas.“You guys have fun, I’m not going,” Lloyd said dismissively, turning away from her. They have had this conversation a million times and Lloyd seemed hell bent on not changing his mind about his father.Despite the fact that the recur

CHAPTER 78After dropping the boys off at school, Nancy made her way to the police station to meet up with Officer Lincoln and her attorney, barrister Corleone. The first hearing for her case against the Grangers was in a few days and since the Granger’s main point was that Nancy was the woman in the video, who entered Chloe’s room prior to her death, Nancy wanted to watch the video again to see if there was anything at all she could use to prove them wrong.Lloyd was supposed to be there with her but with the whole thing about the huge debt Lucas had put the company in, he couldn’t make it, so she had to go herself.Barrister Corleone was the number one criminal prosecutor in the country and he also happened to be a close friend of Lloyd’s. He was more than happy to take the case and he also dissuaded Lloyd from harming the assassin, as his testimony would be vital in putting Melanie Granger behind bars.When Nancy got to the police station, she was led to Lincoln’s office where Corl

CHAPTER 80A few days had passed, Lucas was yet to sign the divorce papers, still trying to find ways to cajole Veronica into staying with him. Veronica had moved out of the mansion, into an apartment she owned in Nancy’s estate, so she could be closer to the family.Lloyd wanted her to move into one of the spare bedrooms but they were just too small to accommodate her and her things.Lloyd had traveled overseas, all in a bid to salvage the situation with some of their foreign investors who had found out about the huge debt their company was in. Government officials were also breathing down their neck and everything just seemed like a royal mess but Lloyd was handling it all well, with Nancy by his side, giving him the necessary support he needed.Nancy awoke to the sound of her phone ringing. It had been ringing for a while and she had been too sleepy to pick it but the caller was relentless. Eventually she gave in and when she saw it was Lloyd, she had a little bit of motivation to
