Chapter 11Lucien stood at the terrace of his penthouse smoking intensively, he could see almost everything going on in his villa, especially the guards parading the whole place.Anytime he was angry, he would always smoke intensively to wash away his anger but it seemed the tobacco stick wasn't enough.“Master, Your brother has been visiting a lot of our shareholders recently and it seems few among them are about to go astray.” Butler Lee said.“There's no way there won't be a betrayer, there should be a betrayer for it to be more fun!” Lucien said, his words dripping with sarcasm and disdain.“But master? What if all of them betray us? After all, they believe you'll be dying in a few months.” Butler Lee said calmly.Even though he wasn't the type to worry over something like that, he seemed to be more than worried as he seemed to realize it wasn't as simple as his master thought.“Damn you!” Lucien growled instantly.Butler Lee suddenly heard a loud growl from Lucien and thought it
Chapter 12 The car pulled over in front of the building where the shooting seemed to be taking place, Avery opened her mouth in total bewilderment upon seeing the fans who were screaming out their lungs.“What's going on?” “Why are they here? “How did they know shooting would begin and the drama would be shot here?” Avery asked.“Since the promotion of the drama is quite low and the company might not promote it well, I decided to use this medium to promote it by linking the news of the shooting area.”“I'm sorry, forgive me this time, I promise not to do such and fight my way to get your drama your desired promotions!” Mr James.“You don't have to apologize, I was just surprised to see many people waiting at the shooting area,”“But don't you think it'll affect the period of the shooting? You know how fans can be, what if they decided to come over here throughout the one month of the shooting?” She asked, thinking about the consequences of having the fans around.“Have you forgotte
Chapter 13The person in front of her was her nemesis!The person holding her arm tightly looks innocent but she was the cause of her downfall.Her gaze hardened as shivers ran down her spine, the one who had ended her life in her previous life was right beside holding her claiming she was her role model.Avery's breath charged with unresolved vendetta as she looked at the hand clutching tightly around her arm. Avery's gaze was like a deity looking down upon an ant.She wasn't that surprised when she heard her saying she was her role model. Of course, Eileen was a role model to some young lady, she has close to 17 million followers on Instagram which made her a top actress who has paved the way.“Excuse me, can you let go?” Avery calmly asked, she walked towards Bianca who seemed to be ignoring her.“Miss Bianca, it's nice working with you,” Avery said and brought out her hands for a handshake which left almost everyone in shock, even Bianca couldn't hide the shock on her face.“You
Chapter 14Sweat could be seen at the corner side of her face anytime Bianca who is playing Mia's role got close to her for the kissing scene. Avery never thought kissing would be more challenging than she could ever imagine.Cut!“Eileen, can you show willingness on your face? You've been shooting other scenes perfectly, what's wrong now?” The director was a little bit irritated by the situation.“I'm sorry, director, I have no reason to justify my actions.” She pleaded.She has played the part where the moment she caught her boyfriend cheating, she went straight to a club to clear her head and get drunk and then met with Mia where things got intense between them.Actions!In the scene, the atmosphere was charged with tension as the characters indulged in their characters, and emotions reached their peak point. Amidst a heated exchange at the bar, The first female lead, Mia, impulsively pushed the second female lead, Eileen, against the bar cabinet.Since they were both drunk, the mo
Chapter 15“What the heck?” Avery curled her fist underneath before flipping back her hair.Avery couldn't help but see the scornful smile on the unknown maid's face, she tried confirming it but her gaze was straightened and no sign of scornfulness could be seen.“Ma'am, I'll advise you to go now as she's, waiting in the living room,” The maid named Shirley said with a grin as she slightly bowed respectfully at Avery with a cunning smile.“Damn it!”Avery cursed angrily watching her retreating figure till she was out of sight, she knew the maid had more under her sleeve and she was ready to deal with her but not now. She needs to come up with a big plan to stop the woman.“Call Lucien, call him now!” Avery yelled furiously as she couldn't even come up with a single plan.“What do you mean, Miss? You don't have Master Lucien's number.” Emily calmly said.“This can't be freaking happening to me! What do I tell her, how should I explain that his unconscious son is nowhere to be found!” Av
Chapter 16“Mother, let me cook………..ah”Avery tried to play her card fully at that moment but her mother-in-law wasn't buying it and angrily gulped down the whole content in her wine cup before hurling it in the direction of the maids.Some maids narrowly dodged the glass that smashed on the ground and shattered into pieces but along the way, some were not too fast to move which made some of the broken pieces pierce into their skins.Avery was so scared but still she kept a straight face not moving an inch from where she sat. She never thought the woman would lose her patience in that manner. “Like mother like son!” She thought.“Get lost!” Avery said she could not show any weakness or pity to those maids. The only thing she could do was to send them away using an arrogant tone.The maids bowed respectfully and backwardly left the living room not without Shirley's mouth curved into a sly smirk, she knew there was no other way out for the bratty Eileen.“Now, get up and lead the way!”
Chapter 17 His musky fragrant smell which she had just inhaled filled her nostrils as both locked their gazes. “Thank you ….” She mumbled trying to get out of his grip. “Hey, let go….!” Before she could finish her words, she suddenly felt the person who was supporting her waist with his hands collide on her chest. “Ah…. What do you think you are doing, Lucien?” Avery uttered in confusion. Avery's gaze widened in terror as she gasped in surprise as the man's head pressed hard against her chest, she tried to pull away, but he was just too heavy. “What does it seem like I'm doing?” Lucien mumbled unknowingly. “Hey, why did you get wasted to this extent?” Avery asked, concerned. Avery stared through his face and could see how flushed he was, his face had turned red. Lucien blinked twice “Does it seem like I am drunk? I am not.” “Since you're not drunk, Can you get off me, first? So that I can get some maids to take care of you.” Silence erupted the room instantly, as Lucien seem
Chapter 18Avery watched as Lucien's lips were getting closer to hers when the image of her ex-husband lashed into her head.“ Jake..”Pain churned in her heart as she tried to suppress those deadly memories of “Jake”. If it was possible Avery suddenly wanted her previous memories to be flushed out of her brain. Those memories were nothing but bad memories to her anyway.Before Lucien's lips could touch hers she knocked him out instantly and his head fell on her chest. Before knocking Lucien out, she couldn't help but remember how she was unable to give birth throughout her previous marriage days. She couldn't help but think what if she was meant not to be able to give birth in her current life also?Even though she heard the doctor had thoroughly checked the current body, she still couldn't help but be worried.Though the body wasn't hers, her soul was inside the body which means there's fifty to fifty percent that barrenness might affect the body while there is a chance it might n
