Two Months Later"So where did you say we are going to?" Sophia looked up at Lucas with a bright smile, ready to go anywhere with him. Lucas pretended to be in deep thought, rubbing his chin before flashing his trademark smirk. The sun was shining down on them, casting a warm glow on the couple as they chatted. "I don't know for now," Lucas said coyly, watching as Sophia rolled her eyes but in a playful way. Sophia stepped closer to Lucas, narrowing her eyes slightly. "Tell me where we are going to when I am being nice," she teased. Lucas continued to hold back the surprise, delighted by Sophia's playful demeanor. "It's a surprise," he finally relented. "It's good to have some alone time to ourselves. Ava is with her grandmother, so I don't think we'll have any disturbances. Let's spend three days in another country. I promise to only think of you." A gentle breeze picked up and the surrounding trees rustled slightly in agreement with Lucas' romantic plan.Sophia's face lit up wit
Sophia came to their house to give them the news about her and Lucas going on a trip. She can't wait to announce that news to her family, but coming there, she saw Stephen dressing."Hey! "Are you going to school today, and what's the time?" Sophia asked, wondering why Stephen was dressing up really hot. Is he trying to impress someone?"Did I look cute? Please be serious," he asked, waiting for her reply. "Why are you dressing up so serious? Are you going to a party?" she asked, and Stephen chuckled softly."I guess the problem I have with you is that you ask questions a lot. Well! Today is Natalie's birthday, so I promise to take her around. Tell me where you can take a girl so as to make them happy?" he asked, waiting to hear from Sophia, who was just staring at her. She had come to express her happiness, but he's here playing a lover boy."Take her to hellfire; that's where girls love." She said with a slight hint of jealousy in her voice."Are you jealous that my son is now goin
A few days laterLucas private captain announced the arrival of the plane at the new york city. Lucas and Sophia smiled at each other as they walked hand in hand out of the plane. A car was already waiting; Lucas led her into the car by opening the passenger door, leaving the driver to go get their luggage."You owned this car too?" she asked, just wanting to be sure. "Well! I do; you know I am freaking rich," he said arrogantly."Don't try to be pompous, Mr. Owner." They both smiled at the joke. He went into the car from the other side."Sir, it's been a while since you've been here; it's good seeing you again." His driver said, and he scoffed."Yes, I have been busy with work. How's everything here in New York?" He asked, trying to start a discussion."It's cool, sir; we've been pushing through." He replied, focusing on the road. They discuss some random things and also crack jokes with them, making the drive to the Logan house a smooth one.Getting to the house, Sophia saw the mar

“Have you lost it?!” Lucas yelled as he rubbed his daughter's back, suppressing the cough which emitted from her.Understanding the meaning behind that yell, the middle aged woman in front of the father and daughter immediately went on her knees as she begged with her hands clasped together.“I am sorry Mr Logan, I will make sure this doesn't happen again,” The reply from her seemed to have built up a sudden rage in Lucas because he quickly carried a bottle of whiskey from his bar and smashed it in front of the lady.Breathing heavily as though he just ran a hundred meters race, Lucas massaged his temple to calm himself otherwise he might end up doing something he would later regret, most especially not in front of his daughter.Speaking of which, he quickly turned and rushed to her side, pulling her into a tight hug. Caressing her long and straight hair he whispered “Are you ok? Should I call the doctor” The little latter in his arms, pulled away from the hug and looked her father
It was already five in the morning, when Sophia woke up and prepared breakfast for her mother and sibling. Thereafter she cleaned the entire house and took a cab heading back to the company.By the time she arrived at the location of the same company which rejected her yesterday, the time was already seven o'clock. It was stated that the application for credentials would begin at 8:30.The entrance of the company was filled with female figures already, making it so compacted that everyone had to form a line in order to get in. However Sophia was far from them, the line and everyone. Her gaze was fixated on the name of the company *LL electronics* and just seeing it makes her blood boil in fury.The only thing she had in mind was revenge, since looking at the company's name brought back a memory she could never forget. •FLASHBACK OF FIVE YEARS AGO•Entering the supreme court was the prosecutor and his client Mr Logan, who walked majestically to his seat having no expression on his
The prosecutor banged on her desk and stood up immediately. “Objection your honor, this attorney here is trying to force a false confession from my client.” “You are warned, attorney!” the judge said and Mr Hiller backed off.Mrs Owen looked at her daughter from the witness stand and let out a reassuring smile. She then mouthed at her “It's going to be ok”Meanwhile, Mr Hiller let out a throaty chuckle and just when he opened his mouth to say something, he suddenly coughed out blood.“What's wrong...” he couldn't complete his statement before he collapsed heavily on the floor as he kept spitting out blood.Sofia and her mother rushed to him and held his head. Placing his head on her thighs, Sofia screamed “Somebody should call the ambulance!” •END OF FLASHBACK•In a gritted teeth, Sofia voiced out frostily, “I'm going to make sure that you and your entire generation are going to pay for every ounce of pain you and my family go through.” An hour passed and the c
“Daddy?” Ava called after contemplating whether or not she should tell her father about the pretty lady she encountered yesterday.Lucas, who was almost through with braiding his daughter's hair, as he got her ready for school, suddenly heard her call him in a sophisticated manner.He reached out for a band on her dressing table and tied it below her braided hair. After doing so, he carried a spray gel and used it on her hair.As a wealthy businessman and from one of the most outstanding families in New York, Lucas was never trained to do domestic works such as this. However after the death of his Fiancee he had to learn everything in order to be a better father.“Daddy?” Ava called again and this time he responded in a low voice.“What is it sweetie?”Having heard her father's reply, Ava turned to him wearing a huge smile on her face as she spoke “Daddy, yesterday I met a very pretty woman. Her name was Sophia and I like her a lot, it would be nice to find a nanny like her don't you
