A Crazy Kind Of Love; The End のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 31 - チャプター 40

Once Anna was out of the room, Simon placed a call to Charles, one of his most trusted men at his Lakeview apartment. "Charles." He called into the phone."Good day Boss." Charles greeted."We are paying Dasilver an unfriendly visit tonight. Get everyone and everything ready. I will meet you at the safehouse." He told Charles, before hanging up the call.He looked round the study one more time and his eyes fell on his favorite novel as a teenager, "The silky petal." He smiled as he recalled how much he prayed to fall in love with someone that matches the exact description of the lady in the book. Little did he know that he was just letting his imagination run wild. There was no such lady in the world. Even if there was, why would she want to settle for someone as damaged as him. Yes, damaged is the word, the right word to use. He shuddered at the thought. If he was damaged, why then was he trying so hard to impress Paige, to get her to see him in another light, maybe fall in love w

After Simon's encounter with Melissa, he got back to his room with mixed feelings. He tried catching some sleep, but like his previous visit to Lakeview, he was unable to access that level of unconsciousness once again. It was obvious that he now sleeps better at Creek Island.All his attempts at sleeping that night proved abortive. In the absence of sleep, he started going through memory lane from the very first day he saw Paige at the hospital, to living with her in the same house.His kind wandered to the last time he visited Anna's home at Acubana. She had invited him to one of her colleagues' birthdays, which she insisted that he must attend. Who was he to refuse the almighty Anna Kentley. Of course, he attended the party, where he came across Cartomancer, who urged him to pick a card. It was a tussle between him and the card reader. He had refused and she insisted that he must. When he finally picked one of the cards courtesy of an extra from his sister, the Cartomancer told him

Simon looked at Paige, her innocence was glaring. He smiled sweetly at her."I need the gun for protection." He finally replied. "Have you ever shot a gun?" He asked her. "Me? Hell no! Have you?" She asked him right back with a shaky voice, knowing that the fact that he had a gun was all the answer she needed. Yet she wanted to hear him say the word. So she waited, her facial expression showing how expectant she was, of his reply. "Yes, I have." He replied with a lazy smile."You should learn how to use a gun. I can teach you if you want me to. My sisters are good with their aim. Anna especially. She rarely misses a target.""Your sisters!" Paige exclaimed, she couldn't wrap her head around the Kentley sisters aiming a gun at someone. The girls look too fragile and classy, June especially. They have that soft feminine appearance that will have you swear on their behalf that they would never kill a fly. "You mean June can shoot a gun? Like, she has shot someone before?" She asked, d

Paige was surprised to hear his reply. Why would a man such as Simon want her company so badly that he had to spend such a huge amount of money to purchase a house just to have her attention. She hoped that everything would be as he said. If spending a whole year in Yardstin is all she needs to do in order to keep her home and business, then it will be worth it. The money she will realize from working at the hospital for the year won't be anywhere close to being enough to buy a house. Even if she adds her income from Pai-boxes, it still won't be enough.So, it was best to stay back, have fun, and keep her home at the end. Many people might refer to it as being selfish and lazy. But at that point, it was a hundred percent okay to be lazy. Paige thought. All her life, she's been carrying everyone's burden. From one person to the other. All her income kept going into providing for her stepmother and sister in order to keep them happy. There was Stefan, whom she was indirectly taking car

"You don't have to. You really do not stand a chance and this is coming from a place of love." Paige told him smiling. "That can't be true. It's coming from a very deep place of hate. How can a beauty like you have such a foul mouth. It's so worrisome." He feigned seriousness. "Oh please" She stressed jokingly. "Anyway, I was hoping that one day, you could tell me about your business. I'll love to know how it works, Nathan told me your company deal on diamonds. How do one transform a precious stone from its raw state? I mean what are the processes it undergoes before getting to its final state." She engaged him, hoping to change their current topic and also hear him talk about his business. At least, that will be a starting point at knowing more about him."I sure will. Let's go eat now. I will tell you about it later." He replied. Paige nodded, she placed bottles of water on a tray and carried them to the dinning table. She was followed closely behind by Simon who carried their foo
