S3-Chapter 28

Author: Maria Anita
Flavian’s POV

It was as if Manu's brightness had transformed into darkness as soon as her phone started ringing. She began trembling, her smile faded, and her eyes became tense as her body stiffened.

"Damn! It's my mother again," Manu said with apprehension and a hint of sadness.

"Honey, answer it. She won't stop calling, I'm sure of that."

"I'll answer in the apartment," Manu sighed. "I'm not going to college today. The professor who was supposed to teach had to cancel and sent a message to the group. I turned on my phone to check the messages and forgot to turn it off again."

"Good for me, I get to cuddle with my little one all night long." I opened the apartment door, and she walked in with her phone ringing again. This time she answered, put it on speaker, and left it on the coffee table, sitting on the couch with a sad expression - her joy from minutes before had vanished.

"Manuela, who do you think you are, you little brat?" The female voice sounded hostile on the other end of th

  • Irresistible Boss: Succumbing to Your Touch   S5-Chapter 67

    Richard's POVAfter we left Patrick's house, I took Anabel home and showered her with affection and care. She needed to know she was loved and wanted, and I did my best to make her feel that way. I managed to take her worries away, at least for that night. The next morning, she was already distracted and downcast again."Pretty girl, what's wrong? Share with me what's making you feel this way." I lifted her from the chair where she was sitting next to me, placed her on my lap, and stroked her hair."Everything that happened yesterday worries me, Rick," she sighed. "They're bad people, and I'd hate myself if they hurt any of you because of me, especially you!" She touched my face gently. "And look what he did to your eye. You shouldn't have stepped in front.""And let that monster lay a hand on you, Ana? Never! I'll always step in to stop him. How dare he punch a woman, with the force of a horse's kick no less! No, no! I'll kill him before he touches you again!""Don't talk like that, y

    Ilana's POVIt was the end of the world - me spending the night in a filthy jail cell! I was going to complain a lot to the old man. That incompetent lawyer he got me was useless."Ladies, you're free to go!" A police officer approached the cell and opened the bars.I hadn't slept a wink all night, but finally I was getting out of there. I got up from that disgusting corner where I'd been sitting after I couldn't stand anymore and walked toward the door."Not you, Malibu Barbie! Only the good girls. Bad girls stay in time-out." The officer blocked my exit and let out the three prostitutes who had been chattering all night in that cell."Oh, handsome! About time, I'm already getting sleepy." Crepe Paper Red bounced out."Don't complain, Ruby, you girls love the hotel here." The man laughed like he was an old acquaintance of theirs."Oh, handsome, don't you ever learn? It's Rrrr-uby!" Crepe Paper Red rolled the R hard and emphasized the Y even more."You treat us well here, that's why we

    Richard's POVI walked into Patrick's house holding hands with Anabel, and my mother came running to embrace her."My dear, how are you?" My mother examined Anabel and grimaced in disgust when she saw the thin mark on her neck. "Good heavens, this went too far. Come, let's sit down."My mother walked away with her arm around Anabel, who was trying to assure her she was fine. I sat on the couch next to Del and only then noticed my sister's bandaged arms."Is that really necessary? You look like King Tut's mummy." I laughed and she scowled at me."It's like I've gone back in time watching you two come home from school all scraped up from fighting in the street! My God, where did I go wrong raising you, Adele?" My mother looked at my sister with disgust.Adele was always getting into fights at school, always going to settle scores and giving more than she got. And I always came home with a black eye because I'd gone to defend my little sister."In my defense, I need to say that Rick wasn'

    Irina's POVI hurried out of that police station and got into the car parked outside as fast as I could. What was that man doing there? I never forgot a face, especially a face like that, so handsome, and even though I had only seen him once, I was certain he was the former owner of the house I bought for Lucas.But he was with Anabel, their hands intertwined. What did this mean? Did he know who I was? I didn't think so - a middle-class man would hardly know who I was, and I seriously doubted my stepdaughter would go around talking about me. He didn't see me, I'm sure of it, because he was completely focused on Anabel and I turned away quickly when I saw him. Anabel was mingling with the riffraff. Lionel would be furious!"Go get me some coffee!" I ordered the driver, who immediately left the car. I needed to make a call."Jasper, that house you sold me. Who was the former owner again?" I asked as soon as he answered."Good evening to you too, Irina!" He tried to be cute, but I wasn't

    Richard's POVI had never felt so much rage toward someone in my entire life! Not even with Tess had I felt this angry. People like Lionel were the type who brought out the worst in us when they wanted to, and I realized he wanted me to attack him. I had fallen for his provocation and finally understood why my father said I would need help dealing with him."Let's go home, our mothers want to see Anabel and Adele," Patrick said, and I remembered that my mother and Lucinda must be at home biting their nails."Rick, you killed it in there! What was that, my friend? I didn't know you were so brave." Lexie grabbed my arm, laughing. "Ana, your boyfriend is the man!""He is, Lexie! The most incredible and handsome man I've ever met in my life!" I kept Anabel safe under my arm, and she rested her head against me."Oh! How sweet! My friend, this woman loves you!" Lexie smiled."Does she really love me?" I teased."Do you have any doubt?" She turned to face me and, ignoring that our friends and

    Anabel's POVWhen he grabbed my arm, he used so much force that I felt pain as if the bone would break where he squeezed. And he didn't let go or loosen his grip. I yelled at him, but he didn't release me. And while we stared at each other like mortal enemies, I could feel all the hatred he had for me right there in that grip."You're coming home with me, Anabel! We need to have a very serious talk," Lionel said, but it sounded like a threat."I'm not going anywhere with you!" I answered. "And let go of my arm, or I'll report you for assault too and for disobeying the judge's order to stay away from me.""Oh, you think you're so brave now! You think you can stand up to me? You can't, Anabel! I'm your father and I'm going to set you straight, one way or another. You're going to learn to respect me and behave with dignity." He had some nerve, talking to me about dignity."You don't know what dignity is, Lionel!" I said, and then I remembered something I'd heard in recent days that was ab
