“Are you out of your mind? You want us to run away after getting married to my sister?” Lucy frowned deeply and asked in a voice full of disgust“I never wanted to go ahead with this marriage. But you left me with no other option” Collins made a step forward and tried to touch Lucy with tears in his eyesThe desperation in his eyes made Lucy a bit confused. Because she never asked Collins for a break upEven though he cheated on her once, she still forgave him and decided to give him another chance because of the love she had for himBut one day she received a message from him, saying he didn’t want to go on with this relationship anymore. He claimed to have found someone else whom he believes to be the love of his life and wish to spend the rest of his life withLucy tried reaching him on several occasions after receiving this message from him but to no availCollins seemed to have forgotten about their love in a second. And blocked her number in additionAfter crying over him for ab
Alex threw Lucy roughly onto the bed and started unbuckling his beltLucy quickly sat up on the bed. Upon realizing what Alex’s intentions were, she rolled out of the bed as fast as possible but Alex grabbed her before she could reach the floorHe pulled her back onto the bed and pressed his muscular body firmly against hers. He kissed her like a wild beast, and left so many marks around her neck and collarboneLucy’s eyes welled up with tears, but she didn’t want to look weak in front Alex so she made sure not to let even a single drop fall outShe struggled a few times at first, but she literally became exhausted in no time and lied on the bed obedientlyShe new there was no means of saving herself at this point. And that it would be better if she doesn’t make things worse for herselfShe has always wanted Alex to make out with her, so that they could start building a new family together. But not in this harsh wayAlex’s face didn’t look friendly, and his eyes were just burning with
Lora stepped out onto the corridor and looked around to see whether she could find any of the maids around and fortunately, there was none aroundThis mansion is for Collins and Jeffery alone. Their parents live in a different mansion, and the maids showed her around when she arrived. So, she knew very well where Jeffery’s room wasLora walked very carefully and gently towards Jeffery’s room. It was just few meters away from Collins’ room along the same corridorWhen she got to the door, she pressed the door handle and pushed the door open as fast as she could and walked inShe didn’t want to be seen by any of the maids, or else it would raise suspicions and eventually get to Collins one dayJeffery quickly stood up from the bed upon seeing Lora and opened his arms to embrace her which Lora did without a second thoughtAfter hugging for a while, Lora pulled out and asked worriedly “where is Collins?”“He won’t come back home tonight. He told me he’ll be spending the night at the offic
Two weeks passed quickly within the blink of an eyeAnd within these past days, nothing had changed. Alex still maintained his coldness, and it seemed Lucy still hadn’t been able to make even a single step in gaining Alex’s trustThings seemed to be getting worse rather. But Lucy still didn’t lose hope yetAlex isn’t such an easy going person. And Lucy knew it was going to take her a long time to finally win his love and trustAs usual, it was an early morning. And time for breakfast was dueAlex had already left the room just like always. Lucy freshened up, got ready in a simple dress and stepped out of the roomUpon stepping out, she saw a piece of paper lying just at the door stepLucy stared keenly at the piece of paper for a while and picked it up hesitantly However it landed over there, she had no idea of. And it didn’t concern her so much eitherShe just felt curious to know what could have possibly been written on that piece of paper Lucy’s eyebrows arched slightly upon read
Later in the evening….Bella got ready and set out to meet Jeffery for their first dateAfter thinking continuously about whatever Lucy said in the morning, she decided to just give love another chanceMaybe Jeffery is actually her destined partner as Lucy saidLucy quickly stood up on her feet upon seeing Bella descending the stairs and smiled broadly with satisfaction. She opened her arms as she approached her to embrace her “I’m so glad you’ve finally made up your mind to give Jeffery a chance. Don’t come home until you enjoy yourself to the fullest”“Sure” Bella smiled back and leftLucy stood with mixed feelings after Bella’s figure finally went out of sight. For a moment, she felt maybe she shouldn’t have encouraged her to give Jeffery a chance, because she doesn’t know him so wellShe only got to meet him few times while she and Collins were still dating. And even that, they didn’t talk to each other muchFrom what she sees, Jeffery is a quite gentleman. A guy who respects hims
“How do you see the food? Nice right?” Vanessa asked with a mouth full of chickenBut looked like Alex’s mind wasn’t anywhere close. He was completely lost in thoughts about Lucy He kept on wondering what Nelia possibly wanted to tell him. And the thought of it made him a little restless He looked up at Vanessa who was busily having her meal and stretched out his hand “give the phone to me”Vanessa’s brightened face gradually became gloomy with anxiety. She knows very well Alex might call Nelia again to find out what had actually happened if she returns the phone back to himShe made a sly fake smile and retorted “for what? Besides you haven’t even touched your food. Let’s finish eating and I’ll return the phone back to you” “I need to talk to my assistant. I’ll eat after that” Alex replied softly and took the phone from Vanessa’s hand even though she was very reluctant to give it to himAlex went to his call log and realized no one had called him after Nelia’s call. Vanessa was fa
“Thanks for this wonderful night, I hope we can do this again soon”“Sure. I hope so too. Please drive back home safely”Bella walked into the mansion after giving Jeffery a short hug. She kept on smiling to herself, as if happiness had finally rushed through her blood streamsAfter so many years, she’s finally giving love another chance. And this is all thanks to LucyEven though they have just started going out and knowing about each other, she still feels very impressed about JefferyHe is such a nice good-looking gentleman. And just as Lucy said, it’s possible he’s actually her destined partner for this lifeAnd now there’s no doubt in her heart that Jeffery is going to be her last and forever loveLucy forced her into giving love another chance, hence she needs to be applauded. If it wasn’t for her insistence, then she probably wouldn’t have gotten this nice young manBella went straight to Lucy’s room to give her the good news. But when she got there, there was no one. Not even
“That’s good to hear. You have some kind of power over your brother. And this is the right time to make good use of it. Find a way and convince him to sign that certificate as fast as you can. I’m trusting you on this Vanessa, don’t let me feel disappointed. Or else you know what can happen” The person at the other side of call spoke calmlyBut his words had great effect on Vanessa. She looked around again to make sure no one was watching and replied “I’m trying my best. Alex has somehow started doubting me. I can’t force him to sign that paper now”“That’s your problem Vanessa. Do everything you can. Even if it means killing someone and get that idiot’s signature on the certificate before tomorrow morning. Don’t call me again until it’s done”Vanessa stared at the screen of the phone and pulled a long faceThe person at the other side of the call didn’t even allow her to finish talking before hanging up. And on top of all that, he even described Alex as an idiot?This word really hur
