تسجيل الدخول“Just tell him to leave.”Antoine said, picking up the waste from the pot and dumped them in the trash cane.Clarissa narrowed her eyes at him, urging to cut his tounge for sounding sarcastic.He said as if it’s that easy. Will the stubborn man leave just because she told him to fuck off?Antoine smiled, sensing her silent anger and approached her, taking the scissors from her hand and made her sit on the stool before dragging another stool and sat opposite her.“I think you can give him another chance Rissa.”He said after giving much thought to the situation.If it’s in the past, he would’ve compelled her to stay away from Nicholas but making haste decisions based on instincts is not going to do her any good.He learned that recently.Clarissa would’ve smashed his head with the stool for siding with Nicholas but she knew he is serious about what he said and fell into deep silence.She believes in Antoine’s judgement and knew he never says anything that harms her. “I ca
The days passed in the blink of an eye and it’s been already a week since Nicholas and Catherine took liberty from her kindness and extended their unwanted stay in her house.Suddenly her big spacious house felt so little.Natalie left the very next day after Nicholas came to Grasse because she didn’t want to be under the same roof as him and also her boyfriend Shirota planned a vacation to Jeju island for the two of them. So, she took off early.As for Antoine, he crashed at Violette’s place for the time being, avoiding house like a plague, precisely Catherine who seemed to let go of her determination to win him back.She tried to console her but Catherine spared her the talk because she said, she is better off being single for the rest of her life than hurt people with her unsteady mind-set regarding relationships.She couldn’t say more when Catherine is clear about her decisions.Moreover, she is not someone who is capable of giving relationship advice because she is already
Clarissa wiped the sweat on her forehead with the back of her hand and sighed in delight, looking at her masterpiece. “I am starving Rissa.”Antoine said, licking his lips, his stomach growling as he inhaled the smell and washed his hands.Clarissa chuckled at his eagerness and held the handle of the pasta pan. “Help me with the serving.” “Smells good.”Nicholas said, inhaling the aroma as soon as he stepped in and saw Antoine and Clarissa, serving the pasta into plates. Antoine cleared his throat at his stiffened friend and put down the spatula in his hand before exiting the kitchen, giving the couple space.Clarissa glared at his leaving back and resumed her work, ignoring Nicholas's intimidating presence.Nicholas turned a blind eye to her indifference and approached her, his mouth watering at the sight of the delicacies on the kitchen counter. “I never tasted the food you cooked.”He said standing beside her, his eyes instantly went close as her smell mixed with her
The living room is filled with Mattia's adorable chattering as he told Nicholas about his liking towards solving difficult jigsaw puzzles. Nicholas listened to him with great patience and helped him with the unfinished dinosaur puzzle, cherishing every second of their time together.After twenty minutes, Mattia squealed loudly, jumping like a little deer, clapping his hands.“Daddy! We made it.”He exclaimed in glee, throwing himself into Nicholas’s arms and wrapped his tiny hands around his neck.Natalie and Catherine watched the father and son duo with mixed feelings as they sat on the sofa.Catherine is happy to see Nicholas find his happiness after so long while Natalie frowned, surprised to see the man who chased her to death smile like a warm sun. She knew Nicholas half her life but she never saw him smile like this ever. He used to be cold, reserved and always puts on a poker face as though the whole world owes him a fortune but now, he is totally different.She cou
Clarissa cut the vegetables in the kitchen, her lips moving continuously, mumbling incoherent curses as she prepared dinner.Antoine popped in his head from outside and looked at the busy figure in the kitchen and sucked in cold breath, chills running down his spine.Damn!She is boiling like a soup. She would burn him alive if he dips his hand in. “Should I call the cops Rissa?”The words rolled out off his tounge before he can control himself and covered his mouth, biting back his tounge. Fuck! He is doomed. Should he really piss her off when she is already on the verge of erupting like a volcano?Clarissa glared at him with her bloodshot eyes, her fingers itching to drive the knife she is holding into his heart for mocking her.How dare he?She failed to kick the badass man out of her house as Mattia clung to him like an octopus, dragging him to solve the puzzle with him and the nerve of Antoine to rub her failure on her face. “Why don’t you find a hotel room to sque
Nicholas stood in Clarissa’s bedroom, utterly defeated in the game of winning her back. He knew it’s difficult to convince her, considering his past actions and he should feel happy that she didn’t kick his balls and gave him a chance to explain himself but he still expected a miracle to happen. Well! She should be blamed for making him think that she is easy to be tamed because she gave in to him in the past without much efforts. Or is it him who made her the lioness she is now? Whatever! He surely became a shameless lion and won’t budge from his decision. “Sorry to disappoint you Ms. Anderson. I’m not leaving your house until I get you out of here.” He said, refusing to step out of her bedroom and sat on the bed, making her blood boil with rage. The nerve of him to sit on her bed. Antoine came to her side, flabbergasted by her sudden yell and looked into her room, his eyes widening in surprise when he saw Nicholas sitting on her bed as though he owned it. He can
“S'il te plaît, Matilda. Ressaisis-toi. On trouvera une solution.”(Please, Matilda. Pull yourself together. We’ll find a solution.)Antoine said as he rubbed her back soothingly, trying to ease her tension. They knew Nicholas will get to them in one way or the other but they didn’t expect him
Clarissa looked at the conference room which is in disarray at the mentioning of the voting and gripped the armrest tight, popping out her veins, her knuckles turning white. Her heart sank, thinking of the consequences about her actions and trembled, feeling her mama’s glare from behind even thro
The conference room fell into dead silence when Matilda took over the charge of the meeting, startling everyone with her presence, especially Clarissa who stood like she was struck by lightning. She didn’t expect her mama to monitor her every move in the company otherwise how did she manage to ta
Antoine never in his dreams expected Clarissa to take Nicholas’s side. He supported her and lied to Matilda about the Defiliation documents. The sly fox didn’t sign them but to protect Clarissa, he hid the truth from his godmother and agreed with Clarissa’s lies but he didn’t ask for her decept
