Semua Bab Lies Behind Bars: The Hidden Life: Bab 141 - Bab 150

"He is the real murderer; Lila was just in the car that day." Those words rang in Damien's head for a while, and it made sense for it to be that way. Gavin was one who could act that way. He could not believe how much he hated Lila to the extent that he failed to see how much she was hurting. She was not the real culprit, yet she did not even complain for once about all the guilt she was made to carry. She was not the real culprit, yet she was ready to come before him and apologize. He wondered how much pain she must have been in. "You pity her now, don't you?" Tessa asked."How can I not? How did this happen?" "My daughter is kindhearted, but the truth is that she is a bit of a fool," Tessa said, nodding her head. That was just the truth. Lila believed she was doing the right thing when the truth was that all she did was wrong from start to finish. "In the first place, I wonder how she acted that Gvain was able to convince her to go to jail for him." "So what are you planning to d

"What game are you trying to play with me?" Evangeline said over the phone. She had been giving Tessa updates about herself and Gavin, but at the moment it felt as if she was not getting anything out of the situation. "Game?" Tessa replied. She sounded confident, and that was one of the things that annoyed Evangelien even more. "Yes, what sick game is this? Are you cheering your daughter on? Did she come crying to you that she wanted him even after she had acted all high and mighty? Are you trying to take me out of his life without anything in my name? Just so you know, Gavin will barely have anything by the time we divorce." "Oh, please," Tessa said, letting out a laugh. "You are laughing? Is anything I have said funny?" Evangeline asked. Tessa could tell that she was over the edge, just where she wanted her to be. As she was now, she was most likely to do what she was going to ask her to do. She was afraid that she would lose everything and in a bid to hold on to anything she c

Gavin took up his phone and called Lila immediately; he could not wait to share the good news with her. Lila looked down at her phone and waved it to her mother. Her mother had come into her room to update her about the situation. Lial had never seen her mother in her room so much that this was weird for the both of them. "See," Tessa said with a smug smile on her face. She had told her daughter that Gvain was going to reach out that night to tell her about the divorce because she was certain that she had been able to push Evangeline out of his life. "What do I need to tell him?" Lila had always known better than to argue with her mom, but something inside of her wanted to get all the opportunity to have a conversation with her mom, so she tried to act as if she did not believe that Evangelien was going to go through with it. Somewhere inside of her, she wanted to believe that she loved Gavin, but seeing how she crumbled in front of a lump change, then she must really have been aft

"Have you been avoiding me?" Sam asked as he sat beside Damien at the bar. He had come in to drink on a Friday night and met Damien, who rarely came to places like this since he was afraid he might fall back into an addiction to alcohol sitting right there. "Why would I avoid you?" Damien asked, looking at Sam as he ordered from the bar. "I have no idea. I have been trying all week to know what has been going on with you but it seems like you are blocking me." "Blocking you? If anyone heard you, they would think we were in a relationship," Damien murmured and took the glass in front of him to his mouth. He winced as the hot liquid burned down his throat. "Then why are you doing it?" "You are imagining things; I have been busy with work and you have been busy as well," he said and then added under his breath. "I wonder what kind of lawyer has so much free time." "The one that is about to take over his dad's company in a few months." "What?" Damien was not sure if he had heard ri

"Mr. Calloway," Gavin called. Damien was just leaving the hotel after having a meeting with some journalists while Gavin was going in. His assistant had informed him about Gavin coming in but he chose to ignore it. If he got into a conversation with him, he might be tempted to beat him up. He made Lila's life a living hell and he was not okay with it. "Keep walking," he said to his assistant, who was about to stop. Grey did not understand but he obeyed. Damien was stone and cold, but he never ignored any businessman, especially in public, and since rumours were going around that Gavin was set to marry Lila, his reputation was getting better. Damien might benefit from standing close to Gavin at this time, even though he might not really need it. "Damien Calloway," Gavin called out again and then laughed to himself. "Are you ignoring me?" he asked and then let out a sharp laughter. "Don't you think it is a bit rude to ignore others?" Damien stopped and turned around; he marched to h
