All Chapters of ENTWINED HEART: desire and deceit : Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Lucas My reaction to Abigail was really hurting me but at this point, I was already battling with so much. There was a high chance that my best friend was being cut open at this very moment and he might not make it. I did not want to live with the memory that after he left, I was already taking advantage of his daughter. That would haunt me forever. I would have rather she and I come clean to him together. That way, there would be clarity in everything we did. All I needed was his phone call to tell me that he was doing alright after the surgery. On her own part, Abigail was already making me nervous. I saw how beautiful she looked and had we not been doing these things secretly, I could have gone over to embrace her. It would mean so much to calm me down that I have a feeling for her. Besides, she looked really beautiful when I saw her. I wondered if she had taken her time to dress up for me or something. I decided that I would avoid her for the time being and stay here praying tha

Abby How badly I wanted to turn and warn Sarah to mind her business and stay the hell away from my business. She was not just acting all familiar with me but now, she was making me mad. I was already having enough on my plate that I wanted to keep busy with and yet, here she was adding salt to injury with her assumptions that were doing me no good. It was his own choice to want to do anything before them but right now, I was feeling hurt. I had to still pretend on top of all that pain like I could not feel anything. Like I was immune and it was not easy. I craved a distraction. I needed space and I knew walking away from her right now might seem like the best thing to do but it was definitely going to raise questions. I had to look at her and smile simply without saying anything and from her look, I could tell she had been expecting that I would contribute to her theories.Darling, you are clearly used to talking about people and I could understand that but it was not my thing. I had

Lucas This was exactly why I always made certain that I brought my A game to every meeting. I had been expecting that he would at some point make a request and the moment I realised that he was new, I understood what he would want. Every chief wanted things to go smoothly while they were in power and anything that would make it seem like they were doing nothing was a problem that needed to be fixed or destroyed. He needed this to go away like it never happened and all was before he would release something I needed. I was going to enjoy talking to this man more than Paul. No offence to the latter but he would push things so far until one starts wondering what his problem was."I take it that's the price of getting me the private investigator, right?" I demanded."Yes, Sir." He responded."You do realize that I could get myself a private investigator elsewhere. Someone who would not make irrational demands, right?" I asked him.He observed me for some time and I could tell what he migh

Abby I would never say that I understood fully how my luck works but then it was clearly running out. I could not tell if this was a save or I was going from bad to worse. But then I thought about it. Staying here with Sarah and her gossips would seem fun to some other girls but to me, it was almost as if I was being suffocated. She had her own way of trying to be in the know of every single thing around a person and that was definitely something I was not willing to deal with. I wanted my own space and wondered now if that was too much to ask for. I already had a best friend and it took me time warming up to her yet, she was genuine in all accounts. She just wanted to be friends with me and kept trying her very best to win me over with sincerity. I would say it was that which got me really impressed so much that I decided to settle for her. This was the contrast with Sarah. Anyone would see a kind gesture and an arm of friendship but all I could see was a desperate woman who felt sh

AbbyJack and I got back and he was already telling the supervisor how I had been a tremendous help to the deals and he was so proud that I was with him. I was shocked. I told her that he did everything and I had been a mere spectator when he chuckled before making a joke that I was just being modest. I could not really understand why he was making me out to be something I definitely was not and was not prepared for. Nevertheless, the supervisor was glad that I had learnt a thing or two. Before she said it, I could already tell from her face that something was wrong. Luckily, she waited until Jack was gone before telling me."He wants to see you in the office. He's pretty vexed, so try not to argue when you get there. He asks where you have been, tell him honestly and on your way, take deep breaths." She said to me,I always did say after all that she had this motherly instinct about her that I admired. I thanked her and then started going towards his office. As soon as I was about to
