Too close brother

Katrina rushed shakily into the funeral home, looking into the rooms, finally she arrived at room one and her eyes caught the picture displayed up. Her shoulders fell as she walked slowly into the large room, her eyes blurred for a second as her tears fell heavily. She got closer, her hand slowly covered her lips to silenced her cry, falling to the floor in heaviness of heart. One of the men standing nearby walked up to her. “You’re his family, you need to go dress up to receive visitors of your father” he said. Katrina stared up at him, she did not recognize any one of them in the room. But they were all staring at her, true, she was Morris Holloway’s daughter but does she have the right to be the chief mourner? Katrina wondered as she got up slowly. She arrived at the locker and let out the sound she had kept a moment ago, pouring out all her pain. She had received the phone call that her mother was involved in a ghastly accident, along with her stepfather, Morris Hollowa

She rushed forward quickly. “What is she doing here?” she screamed, turning back in fury to Lawyer Callan.“Her presence is vital, for this will to be read” Callan answered.Sean arched a brow, having a bad feeling about this. But he sat down patiently, his eyes moved away from Lily .“She’s not even a family, why on earth would her presence be required?” Jennifer continued not giving up.Lily slowly approached the seat beside Lawyer Callan, afraid that Jennifer might claw out her eyes.She had received the call from Callan earlier at the hospital, informing her that he was the one who took care of her mother’s surgery.He promised to take care of every treatment as long as she comes to the Holloway mansion.But hearing about the will, she was a bit confused and wondered why exactly she was needed.“Mr. Holloway ordered that his will be read immediately after his death. And here is what he wanted...” There was a long intense silence after Lawyer Callan spoke. Everyone focused their g

As Jace stormed out of the club, Ray rushed after him, quickly getting into the car to avoid being left behind. Jace ignite the car the moment he got in and drove a bit roughly out into the road. Leaving Ray staring for a moment. “Is there some reason why you hate her? She’s innocent. It’s her mother’s fault, not hers” Ray advised. Jace turned a sharp murderous glare at him. “She’s just as guilty as her mother. They both ruined my life” he spat in fury. He raised the car speed and Ray grabbed on for support, afraid he might fly off the closed window. But he did not stop. “She’s just eighteen. I’m sure her life was ruined too. You’ve got to stop hating, not while you still like her” he blurt out the truth and Jace brought the car to a sudden halt, sending them both jerking up a bit. Ray let out a grunt as he pulled forward and managed to get pulled back by the seatbelt. He turned to Jace whose face suddenly turned red. He flashed a dumbstruck countenance at Ray. “How on ea

Yasmin walked into the enormous kitchen and saw few of the maids, preparing some foods.“Hey, I need you to prepare me something to eat” she ordered as she got closer.Margot who was in the room, turned to her, surprised at her rudeness and the nerve to order anyone of them around.“I’m sorry but If you’re hungry, you can make yourself food” she said and turned back to what she was doing.A scowl invades Yasmin’s face instantly and she charged forward, pulling her back. “How dare you talk to me like that? You’re nothing but a maid” she spitted.Margot was momentarily shocked but she quickly recovered. “Maid? No one is a maid in the Holloway mansion. That’s one of Mr. Holloway rules” she replied.Yasmin scoffed in mockery, crossing her arms against her chest. “Well, he’s dead, isn’t he? The ownership of this mansion had been changed and I am in charge” she told them rather shamelessly.“You? Are you delusional?” one of the housekeepers who could not contain her anger let out.Yasmin sh

The morning sun tells Katrina that it was time to wake up but she lay down still on her bed, the event of last night still vivid in her head.After crying like a weak fool in front of Jace Holloway, he had dragged her into his car and drove her back to the mansion.He opened the door for her like a gentleman and while she wanted to get down, she nearly fell and he grasped her, luckily.His arms guarded her shoulders, and at that time, she looked into his eyes. It wasn’t filled with hatred but some sort of gentleness.All through the night, she had been unable to shake the look off her head or stop herself from reading much into it.It could be that he saw her as helpless and fragile last night and felt pity for her. He had even promised to make her life miserable, there was no way he would be suddenly niceKatrina shook her head as the thoughts invade her head again, shutting her eyes snappy, and taking a long heave.A knock came on her door and she hesitated before going to answer
