LOGINADDISON's POVPRESENT TIMEHis words still rang loudly in my ears, I was no longer feeling safe around him anymore but some part of me felt like I was overthinking while the other part wanted me to cut out of this completely.I slowly made my way to the living room where a cheerful cackle was heard, "isn't that fruits and chocolates for the patient, why are you eating it?" I could hear Leslie nagging at someone, my thoughts... Conrad."Sharing is caring, besides she won't care, she looks a bit too much," I chuckled softly as I heard Conrad, I could literally see that cocky grin plastered on his face.I was about to enter the room when my phone rang with a notification, "hope you love the fruits and chocolate, get well soon, la mia piccola zucca," I smiled at the message Romeo sent.I translated the Italian part, "my little pumpkin," I chuckled softly then entered the room when my face felt a splash of cold water.The whole room went still, even their breath suddenly seized, I slowly
GLEN POV EARLIER THAT MORNING "What?!" I yelled, squeezing the papers underneath my fingers hard, "why are you still here? Aren't you supposed to be with her?" Conrad rolled his eyes, "I had something to do that's why I had to leave, besides her girls are with her, Jake won't do anything stupid." "That doesn't mean anything, she needs you by her side," my voice cracked with anger boiling, "how the hell did she get sick in the first place? Fucking Jake..." "Glen..." Conrad groaned, dragging a fistful of hair, "can you just stop, you keep lying to yourself that by separating yourself from Addidon you are protecting her but instead, you're losing yourself." My grip released slightly, my eyes averting from his gaze, Conrad let out a shaky breath then turned his face to mine, "your wedding is in two weeks, get her off your mind." "It's not that easy," I mumbled under my breath. I pressed the call button to Romeo, "get me white roses, be here in ten minutes." "White roses?" Conrad
I didn't know if I should be scared about his character or I shouldn't be too paranoid about it, I shook my head off these thoughts especially since I was still recovering. After finishing the bowl of soup, I slowly made my way back to my room. Leslie hadn't moved an inch but I noticed how she was shivering, "I'm so sorry." I looked for something to cover her up with because waking her up would be evil. I checked the wardrobe and saw a thick jacket there. I brought it out immediately, and a picture dropped on the floor. I noticed it, bending down to slowly check it. It was a childhood photo with a torn piece of the man's side, a beautiful woman and a child. I turned to the back of the photo, seeing a French writing at the back. I held the photo then placed the jacket over Leslie. I didn't know where my phone was so I folded the photo and placed it into my pocket heading back to bed, "let's wait for tomorrow before playing Sherlock." I closed my eyes, slowly sleep took over me aga
I slowly opened my eyes, feeling very sore in every part of my body. My throat felt dry, and I could barely move, but my lips found a way to move gently, "hmm..." A soft moan escaped my lips. "Guys... she's awake," I heard Leslie scream on the top of her lungs then turned back to me, my mind was still in a haze, everything still looked blurry but I was able to put two together. "Water..." The word barely left my lips, but Leslie heard rushing to get a cup of water, placing the straw between my lips, "here... drink slowly." I slowly drank the water, the taste felt weird in my mouth, like I was drinking a bitter capsule, my throat tightened at each sip, I moved my head slightly then Leslie took the cup away. "You gave us quite a scare," she said softly, her hands intertwined with mine. She softly adjusted my pillow, relaxing my body against the bed. The others came into the room gently, their faces completely drained with worry. I wanted to reassure them that I was okay, but my bo
We made our way to his penthouse, the day just got crazier by the second. The minute we opened the door, the smell of sourdough bread hit my nose immediately. "Is someone here?" I turned, whispering to them softly, Caleb looked utterly suspicious then walked off immediately. I turned back only to see Lovina in an apron, "what the fuck? Girl... how are you here?" I said quickly. She wore a funny smile on her face then removed her gloves from her hand dragging me closer to the corner, "did you know how rich those two are?" She whispered softly. "I just found out in the garage," I whispered back, my mind still taking its time to process basically everything. "What are you two talking about?" We turned immediately to see Conrad with a cocky grin on his face and Leslie sitting on the couch with a big popcorn. "What are you doing here?" I asked back, folding my arms, then turned to Leslie, "girl, how are you here?" "Lovina brought me here of course, why didn't you ever tell me that yo
The next day, Jake finally got discharged and we headed back to his place with Caleb. The second we entered Caleb's car, my phone rang immediately, I checked the caller, it was Conrad.Why could he be calling about this time?"Can you give me a minute? I need to answer this," I said softly, stepping a bit from the car."Hello..." I said softly, I didn't hear anything except for the calm breathing at the other end of the car, "Hello..." I said again this time a bit frustrated."Conrad if you don't—" he suddenly ended the call, I frowned my brows, "that's weird," I murmured then walked back to the car."Stop creasing your brows like that else you'll look like an old woman," Caleb teased.I rolled my eyes at me, entering the car, "firstly, creasing my brows won't make me old but thinking about how Conrad stresses me would definitely make me old."The car felt warm with laughter, I felt a small pull from Jake, he leaned behind my ear, "Caleb's been looking at us weirdly, I think he suspec
Lovina came into the room with a calm smile on her face, "why don't we go to the club to relax our heads?" I threw my head back a bit, "with the way that I'm literally on the run from you know who, isn't it better for me to stay home?" "Really?" She tilted her head sideways, "you already blocked
I couldn't stop my voice before I blurted it out, all eyes were now on me."You okay...?" Leslie quickly placed her hands on mine, I turned with a small smile on my face."Yeah, I think something bit me on my thigh," I said calmly, darting a sharp gaze at Glen but he ignored me and went back to his
I knew Glen was chaos from the second we met but I never expected myself to actually become more tied to him, what do you mean I literally had a fucking wet dream because of him? "I'm ruined..." I reached out for my phone to cut my fantasy short. I didn't know whether I should be grateful or sad
I pulled the phone away from me, wincing at how loud she was. "Don't tell me you guys had sex.""No, but we were so close and I hate myself because I enjoyed every fucken part of it and I want more," I cried. "God knows that I'd do it again Lovina and that sucks because I hate myself for this, Les
