She said, the word sounding off and heavy as it escaped her mouth, she pinched her wrist and sucked in a sharp breath."I can't, I renewed the contract some days ago, another two years, I have to spend that with him!" She replied, I didn't argue back and just placed a steak into my mouth."And when she returns?" I asked all of a sudden and she went stiff."Who will return?" She asked, my smile stretched and I wiped the edge of my lips."She will return, and when she does, you will have no place in his heart. Celeste, prepare to be disgraced, dragged and insulted by his real love," I announced and watched as she swallowed hard, she sucked on her bottom lip."I know," she said, I knew her heart felt heavy and all... she was in love, she was taking a risky decision, I did the same thing too and refused every man for him, for Christian, but he ended up doing all that to me."Celeste, it's from experience. Leave when that time comes, before he hurts you beyond repair," I advised a
I walked out after saying those exact words, Vincent just gazed at me, he didn't chase after me and I heard Xander laugh."What did you do to her?" He asked and burst into another round of laughter, while Celeste yelped in pain, Cassian looked down at her and his lips parted."What did you say to her?" He asked coldly, and she shook her head negatively."Nothing," she said, but then a tear fell down into his arms, his face twisted in disgust and he pulled his hands away."Get out!" He yelled at her and she nodded, adjusted her pants and walked out so fast."Are you really going to keep treating her in such a way?" Xander asked, but Cassian didn't reply and hissed.I heard every word. Because I was standing outside of the secret lounge.Celeste shut the door and she sniffed, she reached to wipe her face with her bare hand, but I stretched a handkerchief to her, she paused for a second and reached out using it towards her eyes..."I'm sorry for causing trouble!" She said lowly. "I cause
"Yes," she mumbled softly, but from her tone I doubted she was."I need air," I replied and before Vincent could stop me, I stood up, dragged my feet and walked off, ignoring everyone's gaze on me.Luckily the secret building did have a toilet, I strided straight in and turned on the faucet washing my face.. just then, the door opened and Celeste moved in, her steps slow and precise.She stood right beside me, I raised a brow and wiped my face with a towel."What?" I asked, she fidgeted with her fingers and bit down on her lips."Mia, ca-can you please ke-keep this a secret?" She pleaded, thinking I would blab this around wherever I went and even ruin her, but... I wasn't Mia."Okay," I said straight up and reached to wipe my hands, she stood there frozen in shock, and I came back to reality when I gazed at her."What now?" I asked and her lips parted softly."Don't you blame me?" She asked, but why would I? Life didn't work out for her, so she found another alternative.. I didn't bla
Her eyes shifted and something I didn't quite understand flashed in them, she cleared her throat, held her backpack strap and walked off.. leaving me there standing alone and staring at the..Wait, why was Vincent staring at me? How long had he been there, did he actually hear everything? My heart rose fast, my cheeks redden with embarrassment.He walked closer and stared around. "Why did she leave?" He asked, I couldn't stare at his eyes and fixed my gaze on the ground."I don't know, she just walked away," I said and sucked in my breath, he just raised a brow questioning why I was looking away, but didn't ask why."Let's go," he said and I nodded not arguing. Once we arrived at his room, he pressed a button hidden in his wardrobe and a door suddenly opened slowly. I stared and finally lifted my head."You designed your house like this?" I asked and he turned to me adjusting his watch."You didn't?"Of course I did, I had created secret passages, that even Christian isn't aware of, I
"How did you get here?" I asked as the car moved and he chuckled."Your mother brought me here!" He said and I froze, raising a brow."Evelyn brought you here?" I asked and he nodded. "She asked me to pick you up, that you might end up in trouble!" He added staring at the iPad in his hands, he was touching the screen and I wasn't interested in knowing what he was doing, so I just stared outside."It's fun today," I mumbled, he didn't say a word and just gently caressed my hair.The car drive was quiet and soon we arrived at a big mansion, it wasn't my home, so it should belong to Vincent."What are we here for?" I asked, he didn't reply and just held my wrist dragging me in, the door closed shut and I stared... Wow, if I was wealthy and a billionaire then Vincent was a trillionaire no doubt."Follow me," he said and I nodded, even though my gaze just moved around; the walls were so white, the house screamed clean, he must be a clean freak I thought, still following when he stopped, I
As I walked off I hid behind a wall, hearing Christian burst into maniac laughter."Are you stupid!" He yelled so loud, I couldn't help but smirk... Good riddance, they were actually turning on each other."Don't shout at me!" she screamed and this made me raise a brow, I sucked in my breath and chuckled lowly."Stop it, I did nothing wrong!" she screamed and then I heard a yelp escape from her lips and turned to peek, Christian had her hand in his hair yanking so hard, even I felt the impact, I gritted my teeth together.So this was truly him? Those times he would caress my hands and do everything for me. Cook, even carry me to bed... it was never him, it was my money making him treat me like a goddess."You just had one job, to keep quiet but you didn't!" he said, his voice raised so hard, Mina tried to remove his hold from her hair, but couldn't."Stop please!" she begged, currently staring at him in fear, I didn't even feel any ounce of pity seeing her being mauled by him.
