-Lucy POV-

I don’t know what this is, but I think I am in between the state of being awake and dreaming. I mean the moment I let my walls down, everything suddenly was put into place. I never even thought that I would see an actual ‘twinkling of the eyes’ like what I have seen in movies. Conner right now is nothing, but a sweet and loving husband to me. It has been a week since we became official, and he has constantly been giving me butterflies in my stomach.

  • The Orphan's Goddess   81. You are Done For

    -Conner’s POV-It has been 5 days since I talked with Mr. Ace and yet it feels like forever being away from my wife. How would she perceive things? I promised her that I will protect her and yet I am far away from her. Isn’t this what she wanted? To not see me? But even so, I feel I have wronged her. I am doing everything in my capacity to protect her. The very reason why I am away from her is to lure Bernard Yates into the trap that I planned for him so that he would stay away from my family. I called Alfred to check on the documents I asked him to prepare with my lawyer, “Alfred, how are the documents I asked you? Are they ready? If they are, hand them to me. I will thoroughly review it before giving them to Mr. Ace so that the negotiations will start. The earlier it starts the better.” Alfred responded, “Yes, Mr. Lowell. The documents are ready and I am about to go to your office now.” I sighed, “Very well. See you.” I hung up and stared at my wallpaper. I touched Lucy’s face on th

    -Lucy’s POV-He made a strong statement with a stern look on his face. He was truly serious. Laura and Philip were so nervous that they looked like ghosts. Philip made a shaky fake laugh, “Mr. Lowell! It is my great honor to see you here today! My wife was just fond of your wife. She took on a liking for her, maybe it is the hormones working. You know how pregnant women are. They talk nonsense at times.” A dangerous smirk formed at the corner of Conner’s lips. “My wife is also pregnant, but everything that comes out of her mouth are full of sense. She is incomparable. Teach your wife some manners or else you wouldn’t be able to stop the consequence that would follow.” Philip scratched the back of his head and bowed at Conner. “I’m so sorry for the manners my wife showed. I promise that this will not happen again. Right, honey?” Laura frowned and whined, “But, honey! Don’t tell me you’re scared of Mr. Lowell! You are a Rodriguez! You are also powerful like him! He should pay some respe

    -Lucy's POV-Laura made a sharp gasp, “Are you insulting me?” Oooh, I think you hit a nerve there, Lucy. Good job! I am so proud of you! Don’t let that b*tch pull you down. “Insulting is an overstatement. I am just merely telling you the truth.” Laura is so mad that her face looks so agitated I could laugh. “How dare you say that to me! Have you forgotten who I am?!” Laura’s voice shivered because of anger. However, I kept my composure and prepared to rebuttal. “Oh I remember who you are. You are Laura Rodriguez, the wife of Philip Rodriguez and a housewife, am I right?” At that moment it felt like her nostrils would explode, “YOU! Honey! Look at her she’s mocking me!” I really thought she would attack me, but she breathed instead and clung unto her husband purring like a slutty kitty-cat. Her husband looked at me with a smirk on his mouth, “You really think you are a boss? Well, maybe you are because a trash like you was picked up by a golden crane. You should be thankful that you ma

Alfred and I are on our way to Mr. Fredrick Ace to clarify the situation and make a deal with him to give the Phoenix project to Bernard Yates for a good reason. I entered Mr. Ace’s office and saw him sitting, waiting for me there. I lent my hand for a shake and greeted him, Mr. Ace, thank you so much for giving me your time. I know you have a lot on your plate and I am greatly honored for the chance that you gave me.” Mr. Ace took my hand and said, “I know you won’t fly here all of a sudden for no good reason. There’s something behind this and I intend to know what. So, Mr. Lowell what’s the catch?” He led us to the couch near his table for us to sit comfortably while we talk. I sat before I said, “Well, Mr. Ace I think you already know why I am here.” He smirked, “I might, but I want to be sure what you really
