Nobela ni Raquel

I rushed outside the hall to catch a breath. The cool breeze hit my skin and felt a sense of relief wash all over me. I felt so confused and torn. Is it even possible to like two people at the same time? Oh my goodness, I did not know what to do.I definitely need this trip to Paris to get my head straight. A cigarette would have calmed my nerves now, but I did not have any on me.‘Miss Anderson’ a voice screamed towards me, disengaging me from my thoughts. I turned and saw Mr Jacob’s wife running towards me with full speed. I was in no mood to entertain her now, but it was already too late as she was already in front of me, panting heavily, with sweat dripping all over her body.‘Glad I caught up with you,' she said and let out a dry laugh. I was so annoyed by her presence, she was the last person I wanted to see right now. Minutes earlier I looked forward to this moment but I was in no mood for that now‘Get to the point’ I said dryly as I rolled my eyes.‘I am here to apologize, I

Lois’ s POVIt was finally the day of our wedding announcement party. Guests were pouring in from all directions. The biggest hall in the city was used, and still, it was filled to the brim with guests. The power of influence and wealth. I only knew half of the people here. They were my business associates, and the other half didn’t even look familiar. I got to invite very few people, and my parent’s did the rest. It was my party but I had a little influence over it, typical of my parents.I looked into the crowd to see if I could spot Zach anywhere, but I did not. Instead, I saw Mr Jacob’s wife. Bold of her to show her face here when her husband and daughter are sitting pretty in jail. I think she felt eyes on her because she spotted me and started walking towards my direction with a disgusted glare.‘What are you doing here?’ she asked as she pulled me suspiciously like I was an intruder.‘I should be asking you that question’ I said as I yanked my hands away from her grip.‘Did yo

Lois’s POVI drove into Jacob’s compound with the full police force behind me. It was finally time to put him and his daughter in their place. He came out with his wife and daughter because of all the commotions. He looked shocked and surprised when he saw me come down from my car. I would pay a hundred grand to see that expression on his face again.‘What are you doing here?’ his scrawny daughter said with her annoying voice.‘To make you pay’ I said subtly. She moved closer to me and glared hard in my face.‘Do you know who my father is?’ she asked, and I looked over at the so-called father of hers. He looked terrified and in shock. I looked back at her and raised my brows with a smirk. ‘Yes I do, a pervert’ I spat in her face, and she slapped me. I held my face and let out a smirk.‘Nicole’ her dad said in a whisper.‘No dad, let me treat this wench a lesson’ she said as she dug her hands into my hair and dragged me backwards. The police officers wanted to make a move, but I stop

Lois’s POVIt was Thursday and it was finally time to go shopping for a dress. I would just get the dress I need for the damn party, when I get to Paris I would shop new clothes to wear there. I was surprised when I heard I was going to Paris for the honeymoon, I thought we would just stay at home for a week before going back to work. I was not against the idea, I loved it. I have always wanted to go to Paris, it was my long awaited dream, but I never had to time to go since I was always so occupied with work not that money was ever the problem. I had dreams of staying in a five star hotel in Paris, going to a restaurant in the morning to have croissant and coffee for breakfast, going to see the Eiffel tower and of course having the time of my life in Paris.It is well-known to be the city of lovers, so that would make sense why my parents picked it out for us to go for our honeymoon, it would speak well to the press and will be good publicity for them. Typical.I rolled my eyes and

Aaron’s POVIt has been a rough week. Lois has been avoiding me, Zach also isn’t talking to me, and everything is just messed up and disorganized. There is a lot of pending paperwork to sign, deals to seal. Today certainly was not my best day, I just needed a clear head and a noise free environment to work.That would have been possible if my dad was not in my office right now, blabbing about how the wedding announcement party would go and how we are to leave for Paris the next day for our honeymoon. Leaving work right now was the last thing on my mind, I basically neglected work last week and have a whole lot to do, and now I have to neglect work for a whole week again. I was not having it.But on the other hand leaving work for a week with Lois to go to Paris would not be such a bad thing. We would get to bond better, and I can use that serene environment to finally apologize and make things up to her. Get closer to her and just have the time of our lives away from all these shenan

Lois’s POVThe office was extra busy this Monday. My wedding announcement part was on Saturday, and all hands were on deck. People are moving in all directions and voices coming from all directions. It was going to be the biggest party of the year, my parents would make sure of it, the kind of energy that was not poured into my wedding would be poured into this party in ten folds.Rich men and women from all over the world would be there. The biggest hall would be used, and reporters from all over the country would be there. People would finally know who I am and what I look like. Well, just people who have not seen me before.I still had not secured the deal with Zach. It seemed so sure before he discovered who I was. I still hope I get it badly because without that deal, my company would fall into third place, and I could not let that happen. The deal would solidify our position. The deal with Mr Jacob would have elevated our position, but who would hav
