Chapter 20 Part 1
“I’m happy for you, Ana.”
“Thank you.”
“I thought you stopped painting and modelling because for the past months you’ve been in active in the industry.” I bit my lips as Luke said that.
“I wanted to be missed. People will be more interested and most likely to buy my painting that way, as they are waiting for me to come back, and also I was busy with my business. I have a lot to take care of but I suddenly got inspired in painting so here I am. And painting for me isn’t really work that I should be doing… I want to want to paint not the other way around.”
They all nodded to what I said and I smile feeling proud of myself but that smile later on disappear when I saw the media become interested to a particular p
Chapter20 Part 2Ana’s POVI’m nervous and nauseous. My head is spinning and I can’t see my way anymore. I keep bumping into people and I notice some of them are holding my body and when they do I just stare at them angrily and if only I were sober I would’ve punch them in the face but I’m not in the right state to do that right now so I walk away trying to find my way to the bathroom.“Fuck.” I whisper as successfully enter the bathroom. I vomit a couple of time and I wash my face for me to wake up. “I shouldn’t have gotten drunk.” If it wasn’t because of Luke I would have not drink this much but since I need the courage, I’m now suffering from my actions.I fix myself
Chapter21Pearl’s POV“I said stop calling me! I have my own life now and I love my husband.” I put the phone down angrily. I hate that he won’t listen to me even after how many attempts of forgetting him… actually he’s also the reason why I wanted to escape this life aside from the freedom that I’ve always wanted.He’s the past that I badly want to forget and buried and stay at the past where he belongs but he’s consistent to be part of my present and future.It’s making me sick… he’s a man that I should’ve stay away from but it was already done and I can’t change anything from the past so I’m going to erase him for good that he can’t enter in the present.I wanted to
Chapter22I pout as I sit on my chair, this feels really new to me. The beach is my view while I’m working here at Pearl’s office. This is actually my first time to work here and I can’t help but be distracted to the beach watching me and calling me. I suddenly want to swim but when I look at the table there’s a hundred papers stacking each other that for me to sign and that’s making me sigh.“Is there something wrong miss?” I look at Pearl’s secretary. I smile and shake my head.“It’s so many… can I really finish this today?” I asked doubtful to myself. I want to see Luke as soon as possible even though we only parted an hour ago I badly want to see him. It’s been a while since I get to be with him but here I am in front of work
Chapter23 Part 1 “I can’t believe we’re doing this together.”“No, I… I can’t believe we’re doing this.” Pearl emphasize the word ‘I’. “I hate you for keeping this a secret! You know I’m always so proud of you about your achievement in everything and I always told you mine but I can’t believe you’re keeping things from me!” Pearl said while I’m driving for towards her resort.“I had to, I didn’t know what to tell you about. I didn’t want our parents to know and investing in the company means that I can decided as part of it because of my shares and it brings me money so I won’t do any work… it’s a great investment.”“Fine. I’m accepting your reason but I don&rsq
hapter23 Part 2“Congratulation.” I guess this is it… the time I will get exposed… but is this a good thing? Becausesince Luke doesn’t look so angry.“I can explain.” I said seriously and he looks at me in confusion. “I don’t know where to start.”He chuckle that made me stop. “what to you mean? This is because of your hard work with your sister. The board accepted your proposal about the venue of the team building… well I made them but I saw you two both work really hard for this.”“Huh?” Oh… that was close. “Oh!” I laugh and hugged him tight. Fuck. “Thank you.” but that smile turn into relief as I hug him and lay my head to his shoulders.“That’s why we&rs
Chapter24Part 1 I scratch my eyes the moment I opened it, feeling the heaviness of my head and the heaviness of Luke’s hands on my stomach.I bit my lips as I slowly put it away. I feel nauseous and any time now I will start throwing up and before that happens here in our bed I immediately run to the bathroom and puke. Wait, I’m naked… but that doesn’t matter right now.“Fuck.” I whispered again and again as I puke in the toilet, not to mention the cold floor which where I am seated as of the moment.I was my face after puking and put on a robe before going out to the bathroom. Luke is still soundly sleeping with his under torso is covered with the sheets.I pouted as I sit on the edge of the bed as I h
Chapter24Part 2Pearl’s POV“Who’s back?” I asked Kate but she didn’t answer instead she started to make some phone calls and gave Ana an inhaler and my eyes widen seeing her in this state.What is happening right now? I’m confuse and I don’t know what to do especially that I don’t know anything about this man she’s talking to.Ana catch her breath and Kate gave her water, then Kate stares at me. “Her stalker.” She answered.I feel caution everywhere I go I feel like someone is watching and following me and I can’t even sleep at night. They didn’t talk about it and that scares me more after seeing Ana in that sta
Chapter25I followed Luke to our room when I finally regain my self from crying… crying because of the realization that Luke’s love is greater than any temptation. I love how he loves her but I feel sorry for myself. Is this where I stop? This isn’t good anymore. For me and for their marriage.“Luke.” He’s changing his clothes and he refuses to look at me even though I’m already on his side.“Not now, please.” He said closing his eyes tightly as he leaves the room after changing and once again I’m left alone feeling crazy because of the silence as I watch him leave from the verandaI couldn’t sleep after taking a shower and I feel nervous as minutes passed by. He was speeding and memories from the accident came running back to me as I close my eyes.
