LOGIN“Oh yeah, and insulting me is the only way to stop them from carrying on with it? No matter how hurtful it was, I put up with everything, but telling me that we are at war, telling me that my presence makes you sick, that was my last straw Shane, if I could endure anything, I will not endure that. Do you hear me? I will not endure that!” She beat his chest with her bag, “do you hear me? I will never endure that” She beat him more with the bag, adding her second fist to it.Shane grabbed onto her wrists to stop her, “fine, what do you want me to say, sorry?”“I will not tell you what to say!” She yelled, trying to free her hands and continue hitting him.“Then I’m sorry, I’m sorry for the all the words I said, I’m sorry if they hurt you, I am sorry,” he said in a loud voice.Lillian calmed down, she wiped her hair out of her face, “that’s not enough.”“What else do you want then, for me to go down on my knees?”“It won’t hurt if you do, you won’t be the first man to do it after all.”S
“What the hell is that supposed to mean?” Lillian asked, she doesn’t want to lean into the fact that he may have lured her into his house, who knows, he might not even have Shana. Her breath cut at that thought, “you said you had Shana, where is she?”Shane shrugged, “I took her home.”Lillian frowned, “which home?”“Your home, you see,” he licked his lips, putting his weight on one foot, “she ran away from your house and came looking for me in the office.”With each word she said, Lillian was more confused, “why would she come to find you, she doesn’t know you.”“But she does, and she also knows that I am her father.”“You are not her father, Robert is.”“No, Robert is her grandfather, she told me that herself. So perhaps you can explain to me why your daughter refers to your husband as her grandfather? Sincerely, it’s confusing. I mean, since we know he is not her father, at most he would be her stepfather, but grandfather? I don’t see any relation except if you are not married to R
When they got to the hospital, about to go into Sylvester’s office, Shana pulled at his hand, he turned to her and crouched to her level, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear, he asked, “what is it?”“Can I wait here?” She asked.She looked around them and sighed, then he nodded, “of course, I will be out soon,” he kissed her head and went into the office.Sylvester frowned when he saw him, “a complete waste of my time.”Shane smiled, “why can’t you tell me the result on phone?”“Of course I need to waste your time like you wasted mine,” handing him an envelope, he announced, “she is your daughter.”Shane felt like a big weight was lifted off his chest, he felt as light as a feather and his fingers shook when opening the envelope, he had assumed, believed it but nothing can compare to being one hundred percent sure. Immediately he opened the paper, his eyes went to the bottom where it was written ‘99.99999 identical’. His heart soared in happiness, she is his daughter, Shana is his
Shane sighed and shook his head softly, “I don’t know,” he whispered, “all I know was that everything was going great, things were falling in and then one night of getting drunk, I woke up to find her gone,” he licked his lips, “I was broken and believed she abandoned me because she thought I couldn’t provide for her anymore. I lived in despair for two months until one day, I told myself, it can’t be, she can’t just leave like that. So I started searching for her but no matter how hard I searched, she was nowhere to be found. I didn’t lose hope, I kept believing that one day she would come back and she would tell me about her adventures and we will laugh it off but then…she returned, nine years after as a widow,” he smiled painfully to her.“But that’s not the only that hurts, what hurts more is the fact that she doesn’t know what is hurting me, she acts so indifferent and…” he sighed, really not understanding why he was pouring his heart out to a nine year old and who the lady in que
Shane had just finished a meeting and was seeing three of his associates off. Inside the elevator, they kept talking about how to solve their current crises of the constant releases of Margaret’s affairs. Another one was released this morning and thankfully, their threat to have any reporter who surrounds them, arrested worked and it stopped them from clustering around the company but that didn’t mean they weren’t being badmouthed in the internet, especially his mother. But the truth was that, as the associates were thinking about how to solve the issues, he was thinking about how to lure Shana out to the hospital where they would meet with Sylvester and have the test taken.The elevator chimed and the doors opened, he stepped out, followed by his associates and they were just making their way to the big glass doors that would lead them outside when he saw the little girl looking around, he frowned, her figure looked so much like the girl in his mind but he couldn’t believe it, for wh
“No, he is fighting me, he looked me in the eyes and told me that we are in war, he told me that he would fight me, that he would do everything within his power to bring me down, he told me that my presence makes him sick, what do you want me to do? To go on my knees and beg him? To plead with him to love me? No, I am better than that, perhaps the old Lillian would have done that but I am not that Lillian anymore, I am not that weak eighteen year old girl that is been beaten, thrown away into the rain. I am not that Lillian that trembles when something happens, I am not that Lillian that cries at everything. If there is one thing Robert told me, crying never solves anything and indeed, it never had, and it never will. I will no longer be played like a ball, I will no longer beg anybody to do anything for me. I am not that weak girl anymore and if your aim here is to make me like that, then you lie, because I will never go back to being that girl anymore. If Shane wants war, I will giv
Later that night, Lilly made coffee and took it to his study as always, she knocked on the door and the door opened in seconds to reveal Shane’s handsome face, he took the tray from her and pulled her into the room, placing the tray on a small shelf, he turned to her, “what took you so long?”“I’m
When Shane returned later at night, he was so tired that his face tells it. He had been delayed in a meeting at the last minute and he wanted nothing more than ending the whole thing and leaving. Finally, the meeting ended and he was back but only to notice something was different, but he just can’
Getting to the kitchen, Shane saw Paulina discussing with a maid. He had passed the dining table and had seen that breakfast was ready. Two maids were adding the finishing touches but none of them was the person he wanted to see and now in the kitchen, he couldn’t find her either.“Good morning mas
Shane opened his eyes at the sunlight on his face. Damn, why didn’t I close the drapes last night? He thought as he remembered that the night sky was so beautiful with the twinkling stars and he had wanted to admire the view a little more and might had fallen asleep while doing that.He laid still
