LOGINI 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
ADDISON'S POV After those words left my mouth, Glen left in rage with Conrad trailing behind, the room went back to normal but there was this tugging in my chest that just wouldn't go. I went out of the room for fresh air but ended up finding myself at the hospital garage. I saw Glen's car move fast. I hid quickly but I was certain he saw me out of the corner of his eye. I turned my head back when I bumped into Lovina, she looked at me worriedly then dragged me to the corner, "why did you do that?" I breathed out softly, "I don't know... I just did," my voice was shaky, while my mind was still in a haze. "I hope you know you're hurting both yourself and Jake at the same time," she said softly, bringing me closer to her. I breathed against the hug, "I feel guilty against Leslie and myself, I don't want to do this to Jake but it's either this or I'll find myself back to Glen and I can't risk that." Lovina patted my back gently, "I will always have you back no matter but I can't l
GLEN'S POVThe second that word escaped her lips, it felt like a splash of cold water just poured all over my body, I froze completely, my eyes still on Addison, she didn't look happy, almost like she forced herself to accept him."Aren't you going to congratulate them?" Leslie said with a very excited tone.I turned to face them completely, Jake's hand was on her waist, it's taking everything in me not to cut his hands from her waist, I couldn't watch this.I turned and left, rubbing my hand on my face to calm me down before I genuinely lost my mind. I could hear Glamerio calling out to me but the rage in my body couldn't let me answer him.I entered my car about slamming it shut when he stopped it with his hand, "what the fuck is wrong with you?" He yelled.I let out a shaky breath, throwing my head back, my fists folded on the steering wheel controlling myself before I burst out in anger.Glamerio exhaled softly, "you need to fucking calm down, do you want Jake to feel like he has
The second Lovina came boom upstairs I threw a pillow at her, "are you insane?" I yelled at her. "Hey, what did I do?" She whined. "Firstly you bring an impromptu news that guys were in here then you run off with your fling leaving just me and him knowing fully well what went down between the bot
As we made our way around the mall, I received a text. I couldn't check it immediately because of the amount of bags we were carrying. The moment we settled at a cafe nearby, I let out a sigh of relief, "count me out of your shopping shenanigans for like a month, I'm beat down." Leslie laughed ha
TWO DAYS LATERMy life had been actually going great, I heard nothing from Glen and I wasn't even thinking of him, I had finally moved on from him.I was supposed to go to Leslie's place then we would head to the mall but I decided to wait for her at the mall to avoid running into Glen, nothing was
The second the alcohol dropped into my mouth, it was just right, the alcohol going through my veins and that adrenaline pump was just perfect. I rushed to the dance floor and danced so hard, "Addison be careful..." I heard her voice through the loud and banging music, the alcohol was seriously kic
