'What was I even thinking? Ugh!' Lucas scolded himself with clenched fists as he walked straight towards the kitchen to handle his usual daily chores. He banged the door open when all the other servants nearly jumped in their places acknowledging the arrival of the devil.
All of them immediately turned back to their duties pretending not to bother to look at Lucas. The staff was clad in white uniforms with gazes glued to pots, no one dared to lift his head up. Lucas headed straight to the back of the kitchen where the staff was supposed to take rest. The man slammed the door with a loud bang indicating his agitation. "Is the boss angry?" One of the men spoke in a whisper carefully asking the opinion of the other comrades. No wonder he addressed Lucas as boss because all of them were his men. The useless son in law had a powerful background to back him which was apparently unknown even to his wife, Nathalie. "I think he got refused by Miss Nathalie for something again." The youngest of them responded to the chat by intervening with his dirty brain.He smiled at the other men when a lady staff gently smacked his head with the base of the frying pan. "Shut that gutter brain of yours, it stinks." The young chef scoffed and rubbed his head while they all became even more curious. But of course, no one was really allowed to disturb the boss in such a situation and that's why no soul dared to sneak peek through the glass in the door. Meanwhile outside the villa at the back of the huge cube of house, Nathalie was dumbfounded with what just happened."What was that?"
She lifted her hand up to her lips and gently trailed the pores of her fingers. No doubt the heiress could sense his taste lingering on her lush lips. "Fuck! He was about to eat my lipstick." The woman rolled her eyes as she saw her face in the nearby glass window.Although her heart was still beating fast at his thought.
'But why would he even do that, when clearly I keep him at hand length?' Nathalie was unable to decipher why Lucas would try to kiss her when she humiliated him each day with the spades of her words. She saw her reflection and could utterly hear the blush revealing the truth that she wanted Lucas to kiss her. 'No, no. You can't fall for him.' Nathalie shook her head to dismiss the thought of Lucas. Whereas somebody standing nearby just around the corner had witnessed it all and was smirking with an evil grin.Nathalie inhaled deeply and calmed her pounding heart with the thought that she had to face Lucas at night. However she despised him for not standing up to her family for any humiliation, she couldn't deny the fact that Lucas was her husband and they both shared the same room.
The woman could hear her heart going crazily wild upon the very thought and some adult images played in her head like a film. And she could feel her ears getting hot and reddened so as the cheeks.
Meanwhile back there in the kitchen cabin Lucas slumped himself in the chair with head thrown at the back. "Gah! What she will be thinking of me now?" Lucas had his own reasons to assume that particular premise, because he had always been in control during the past months.But he could visibly sense the growing sexual tension between them both and he too, wanted to give in but not forcefully.
"Gosh! I have to clear up my situation tonight or else I wouldn't be able to elevate my image in her eyes." The man was determined to make things right because he already knew that his earlier behavior had messed up the things.It was the moment when an alarm rang snagging his attention and a brief smile appeared on his face.
"Ah! Time for grandpa's medicines." Lucas shot out of the chair and strode towards the cabinet behind him and took out a few meds.But why was she appointed to feed the old man when the task could have been served by another family member? Could it be that trusted Lucas more than anyone else?
I mean if that's the case it makes sense why took the side of Lucas and rescued him in the hall back there. [At night] "Should I go in?" He was wandering here and there in the hall not bothering anyone's presence because all the 'guests' had gone away. "Will she burst out on me?" Lucas mustered up his courage and grabbed the handle of the door, flinching with a blank mind but utter hesitation he walked inside. To his surprise Nathalie had just come out of the shower and was draped in a towel.Sure enough Lucas had arrived at the room earlier than usual which made her caught off guard. Whereas he felt the gush of sensations crawling in his body that Lucas wanted to take her right there. Nathalie stared at him blankly and clenched the towel unconsciously which made it fall.
Lucas took Kaya to Diego, he didn't want to keep her with himself since it would put her life in danger. He flew straight to Diego with the intention of keeping Kaya safe, she told everything to him about how she met Sandro and whatever be did.Lucas got into trouble and confused about what to do since apparently Kaya was now Richardson' fiance. But he didn't want to showcase the deeds of his brother in front of the cousin, thus he assured Kaya that she would be safe with Diego's family.Diego's wife had patched up with him after she saw the clip that they both were drugged that night, as someone clad in black suit from head to toe 'planted' Nathalie there with him. And the whole scenario resulted into intimacy, Viviane believed in whatever her eyes saw and forgave Diego but she still was hesitant in adopting Khal."But why do you want me to keep her? She will be safe with Richardson."Diego complained w
"What happened to mom?"Khal inquired from grandpa Lancaster who gave him a hug and a teary eyed response, while his lips couldn't say anything since the things were out of his control now.Nathalie was given the poison in the coffee back there in the cafe when Lucas took her to the cafe. Somebody there had given her the poison but it was Sandro who served her personally. Could it be him?The old man and the little boy sat in the corridor of the hospital silently with their thoughts running towards every negative outcome they could imagine. The guards had been keeping an eye on every person present in the arcade or hovering around the ward where she was kept.'I have to contact Lucas and inform him. The situation might turn bad and I don't want to keep him in the dark.'The old man had no clue what to do, but he was aware that Lucas needed to be informed about the whole matter.&n
'Why is this number calling me consistently?'Lucas had no clue why the particular number had been nagging him a lot, the user had been calling him since an hour. Finally Lucas attended the call and was about to yell at the user, without bothering that Diego was still sitting beside him in the car.'Who is she?'Lucas heard a feminine voice which made him end the call, but before he could do Lucas heard a familiar voice. The caller was Kaya Williams who had been calling him for help when Sandro was keeping her confined. [Petrakis book 2]'What the fuck is Alessandro doing there?'He couldn't contain himself and nearly jumped out of the seat, when Diego became curious about the call. He had never seen Lucas with mixed emotions of anger and surprise, which he couldn't understand himself.'Who is this woman with him? Don't tell me this brat is doing something dirty!'Lucas heard thee woman deliberately telling him the address which he repeated under h
Nathalie took her leave and walked straight to the room, she closed the door behind her and tried to calm her pounding heart. Nathalie knew her heart was beating for only one man, who was returning her love the same way.'Whoa! So, this feeling is absolutely true. Is this how people feel in love?'She raked through her hair and walked towards the washroom, the woman opened the tap and splashed water on her face. Nathalie started to wear makeup to impress him, but later on she completely stopped after Lucas praised her bare face.The lady stared in the mirror in front of her and felt heat around her cheeks. Nathalie could see visible blush on her cheeks, which reminded her of Lucas and his words back in the lounge. Nathalie never imagine to have kids with him, after all their relationship had just begun and kids were the last thing she would think of.'I hope he would not treat Khal any different if we happened to have kids together.'Nathalie had no idea or
Nathalie stared at Viviane's back as she left the villa after settling things with Nathalie. The woman was satisfied with all the talk and was relieved by now that Nathalie was definitely not after her husband and did not want to give up her child either."When did you arrive, honey?"She turned towards Lucas who was relieved by now that Viviane didn't blow up his identity. Nathalie's happy expressions relieved him even more and shed all the byrden from his shoulders about the issue."When you were having a cat fighting with her, haha."Lucas leaned in and pecked her lips while he lifted her chin up to make sure the women would look him in the eyes. He wanted to see if she was alright and was just pretending to be fine while having her mind trapped in the mess."I must say you always surprise, little devil!"She lowered her head and made sure that Lucas would not see her blush expression since Na
In the present time Nathalie was sitting in the opposite sifa to Viviane, who analyzed everything in her surroundings in Nathalie's home.After getting the idea that Nathalie could not harm her, she resumed her speech while the jury of ten brawley bodyguards stood in the lounge with their guns in hands. Upon any suspicious movement they were ready to pull the trigger without thinking twice."So are you implying that you don't have anything to do with Diego?"Viviane knew bv now that something was amiss in the whole situation,but she wasn't able to figure out what!She could feel that something was hidden and the feeling made her uncomfortable as if somebody had been keeping an eye on her. Well which definitely was true since Lucas had placed a guard on surveillance in case something happens in the villa.Viviane's cold gaze was fixated on Nathalie who appeared to be calm de
