บททั้งหมดของ FALLING FOR THE ENEMY’S SON: บทที่ 51 - บทที่ 60

David couldn’t hold back his wild thoughts. He tried to fall asleep but couldn’t. Soon, he found himself slipping his feet into his flip-flops.It was a few minutes past 11 pm.David stepped out and was soon heading toward Sylvia’s chamber. When David got to the door, he was stunned to find it locked. As far as he was concerned, the servants were back to their rooms at such hour, probably resting. He turned around with a defeated sigh and was about to head back to his room when he saw Sylvia hurrying toward the corridor with her head lowered. “Where are you coming from?” David’s voice came on when she got closer. Sylvia instantly stopped. She lifted her head.David raised an eyebrow, expecting a response. What was she supposed to tell him? Wondered Sylvia. She had just gotten back from trailing his mother. She had eavesdropped on the most complicated conversation that could change his life.She was still in shock. David surveyed her. Why the hell was she wearing those baggy tr

Fred was about to head to the dining for breakfast when he saw Eleanor walking up to him. With his arms folded across his chest, he stopped and waited for her to reach him.The nervous Eleanor walked up to him with a grin Fred considered sheepish. Lately, he had noticed how nervous and quite different she seemed around him. It was unlike her.“Good morning!” She hailed, lifting her right palm.“Morning, Elly.” He replied, facing her.She cleared her throat loudly and began. “I was thinking maybe we could hang out tonight.”Fred raised an eyebrow.She shook her head. “Not in that kind of way.” She exhaled and continued. “So there’s a bonfire in my community tonight and judging by the fact that you loved the Fest, I thought maybe you would want to attend tonight’s event. It’s camping, barbecue, and some other stuff.“It sounds interesting. I’ll love to come.” Fred replied.Eleanor’s eyes widened in surprise. That was quite fast she thought and decided to drop the part that might make h

Sylvia remained transfixed in her spot as she dived deeper into the pool of confusion. Suddenly, Cathrina’s phone began to ring and Sylvia was forced to return to her hiding spot.Catherina gave Leonard a final glare before leaving the corridor. Fredrick went inside his room and slammed his door in fury. Sylvia stepped out, her face was covered with confusion. **** “Open the damn door, fast!” Fred muttered under his breath and slapped the speedometer. The automatic gate was slowly opening to make way for him to wheel the car inside but judging by his schedule, Fred felt that the gate was taking an eternity to be opened. After they dropped off at the office that morning, Fred recollected leaving his journal back in his room. In the journal, he had taken note of all the points he was going to use to cheer the board meeting. David had suggested that Fred handles the meeting without the journal but the prim and proper Fred was scared of being a flop. In his father’s company, he ser

Flashback: Five years ago“So you don’t like parties too?” David threw the question at June. They were standing on the balcony on the night of the 25th Anniversary of Wells Empire.She giggled without taking her eyes off David. He was incredibly handsome; the most devilishly handsome man she had seen.“Not really. I just wanted to get a good view of your house so I wandered here.”David nodded and studied the name tag strapped around her. “You must be very famous. You are Miss New York City. Now I know why my father invited you to this party. He has a thing for famous people.”June took bold steps toward David and stood beside him. They looked down at the pool. “This is the first time I’m meeting your dad. He sent me an invitation via email and as someone keen on meeting renowned people, I had to jump on the offer. I also met lots of iconic people tonight.”David stole a glance at June. “So tell me, would you be Miss Universe in the future?”She held up his stare with admiration. “I w

Crappy insolence! June almost blurted and clenched her jaw. Did Cathrina mistook her for a servant? She shook her head, dismissing the thought. Everyone had seen her face once or twice on TV and she was certain that Cathrina was just being tacky.“Why are you still standing there like a log?”Denim swallowed and was about to intervene when Leonard appeared. None of them noticed the moment he showed up.“Well, here comes the man of the house.” Cathrina declared and flipped her curly hair. She turned to look at Leonard’s direction.“Dogs never cease barking,” Leonard said when he got to the living room, his eyes bearing disgust for Cathrina.“Well, this dog has come to stay.” Cathrina retorted and pointed at herself.It was at that point that Leonard noticed the luggage bag beside her. She began to take furious steps toward her. When he finally reached her, Cathrina pulled out a folded paper from her bag.Meanwhile, the most domestic servants had already formed a colony upstairs and wer
