"You see it as sass, I see it as a genuine question." She shrugged, much to his dismay. "Oh, and my visit to the house you're so hung up about was only because of my brother. Trust me, I have only one more visit to make to that place and it's the last time you see there. Besides, you should thank me for coming home, if not your mistress wouldn't have been able to successfully hook me in another annoying date.” Eva added, completely disregarding her father's warning and keep addressing Laura as a ‘mistress’“Evangeline Carter! How dare-" "Besides, you’ve never helped me before in the past. Why start now?" She cut him off before he could complete his words. She turned her back to him and walked away to hail down a cab. However, before she had the chance to do so, Dylan stepped up."I’ll drive you home." He was obviously worried about her. It was already late at night and she had already experienced enough trouble.Getting into a taxi right now would be very dangerous, especially for a
************A few minutes later, Eva finally arrived outside a huge black gate. The security team watching from the CCTV had told her to wait for some minutes so that they could confirm from Old Lee when she told them she lived here.“We apologize, madam for keeping you waiting.” The guard apologized when they confirmed that was the new madam of the mansion. Eva nodded her head, not offended by their action. In fact she would have scolded them personally if they had let her enter like that without confirming her identity since she hadn't properly introduced herself to every worker here.As expected, Old Lee was waiting for Eva when she parked her car and got out of it. She smiled apologetically at the old man for keeping him awake at this time because she arrived late.****The next day******Eva got dressed, grabbed her bag and went out of the black mansion. She insisted on going out on her own but the worrywart butler just won’t let her, but since she was in a happy mood today she
“I am interested now. And if this turns out to be true, then it's the perfect place to start taking back what was stolen from me.” Eva replied, her eyes darkened dangerously."First of all, before I tell you if it's true or not. Tell me what was the exact reason you married Damien?” Nathalia inquired.“I told you already, Nathy. I'm done regretting and beating myself up Nathy. It's time I leave up to that reputation that everyone knows me as." “And that is…..?" Nathalia trailed off, she wanted to get a real response from Eva, that way she would know that her Eva was finally over Mark.“My position as the Queen of Socialites. Don't you think my throne has been resting all this while? Everyone sees me as an evil, wicked, vicious, spiteful, jealous woman, so why should I try to convince them? Rather than convincing them that I'm not, I would just expose the people that they think are the heroes.” A sinister smile graced Eva's face.“That is what I'm expecting to hear! Finally I have my
“Yes, he asked me to be his girlfriend a few days ago before I arrived. However, even though I agreed, I told him we aren't announcing yet because we are just getting to know each other.” Nathalia replied as she watched Eva's expression."I forgot to ask what his name is?” she finally asked after a few moments of silence." Stanley Breaker.” Nathalia answered immediately. She was nervous about what Eva would say about him.“Alright, since you like him, I wish you the best and I'm happy for you. However, look out very well. I don't want you ending up in that same crappy relationship you had with you know who." Eva remarked, her eyes burning dangerously.“Really? You're in support of it, thank God." Nathalia let out a huge breath she had been holding.“Of course, I would. I want you to be happy just as much as I am. Were you nervous because Ella didn't approve of it?" She asked.“How did you know that? Well, it's not like she didn't agree, Ell was just being over cautious about him and
After three days.The Black mansion was in chaos. The old butler can’t control the mansion’s wild princess anymore. Two days ago, the butler mentioned that Damien was actually taking such a long time whenever he goes abroad and he said that a month was surprisingly the shortest, making Eva shocked because she was told that he would take a week before he comes back. She really needed to discuss her plan with him immediately. However, at the same time, she was glad, for she didn’t expect that she would be given so much time to prepare for the approaching battle and prepare how she would tell him. Being jobless for the past few days, she then came and insisted on making some changes in the mansion’s garden. She wanted the dark, chilly garden to turn into something romantic. She wanted to add some colors in its monotone look. She wanted to transform it into a perfect dating spot for future purposes. However, she didn't know that this garden would surely come in handy for her.Well everyo
“If you are going to do something like this then you should have asked for help." Damien said and before Eva could respond he walked away back to the mansion. Eva was dumbfounded as she just stared at his back view until he disappeared from her view. “Wait, was he looking out for the stress that I was doing?” She mumbled silently while tilting her head. After a while she finished planting the flower she was doing in that area and also headed to the main mansion. The maids came to inform her that dinner was ready and she met Damien already sitting at the dining table when she got to the dining room. Unlike what Eva expected for their first dinner together since they got married, it was rather quiet. She stole a few glances at Damien who was pretty much focused on his food. “Is my face more satisfying than the food?" Damien suddenly asked, almost making Eva jump at being caught. She didn't know that Damien had caught her staring at him. “Of course the food is delicious and satisf
“It's a lot of things so I hope you're not busy? If you are then we can talk about it tomorrow.” Eva glanced at him. The discussion isn't a short one after all. "I’m not.” Damien shook his head which was clearly a lie. He had a pile of work waiting for him to do in his study room. “Okay. First of all, I'm sorry about what happened earlier at the garden. I guess you were looking out for me but I misunderstood you. I would have apologized earlier at the dining table but you already got up to leave." Eva started off, she was feeling guilty at the way she had spoken to Damien at the garden and it's one of the reasons why she had been staring at him when they were eating.Damien frowned when he heard Eva. Did she think he was angry at her? However, he decided to use the situation to his advantage.“Is this how you plan to apologize?” Damien asked, making Eva look at him with a raised brow."What do you mean? How else I'm I supposed to apologize?" She asked back and just like that she di
However, she almost choked when she noticed his hard stare on her. ‘Um…..did I say something wrong?’ “I'm not a gay. And it was my first time that night and what happened was because I was drugged before you entered my room. The following day when you ran away, I asked Shane to find you because I wanted to make you pay…..” "It's okay, don't say more. I understand now. We both lost our virginity to each other, so there is no need to make each other pay anymore.” Eva didn't let Damien finish his words before cutting him off. ‘Nathy was right, he was trying to make me pay after all.’ she thought to herself, remembering how Nathalia was always shaking when it comes to Damien. "That aside, why do I have to seduce you?” Eva asked. "Because I have no Interest in women, and even though you are quite interesting sometimes, it's still not enough.” Damien calmly replied again. ‘The fuck! Is he mocking me or what? How can you not be interested in a beautiful goddess like me?! Is something
