Make up for the future

“See who eventually decided to step out of that prison!” Lilith mumbled underneath with sarcasm as she had a bite of the red apple in her hand.Her eyes were stinging, making it hard for her to see as she was ambling her way toward the kitchen. Lilith tagged behind her until she reached out to the refrigerator, and brought out a bottle of water and a cup, she filled the cup and then raised it to her mouth and guzzled all in a draught. “Where did all those gifts come from?” She eventually decided to inquire about all the wrapped presents she saw in the living room that was packed aside on a spot.Her eyes furrowed with puzzlement as she was piqued with curiosity. If everyone didn't realize how special the day was, she had to remember what the big day was all about. A frown shrouded over Lilith's mouth, still retaining the look of puzzlement on her face. “Have you forgotten today's your birthday?”She rolled her eyes. “Why would I? Is it a crime to ask where all the gifts came from? I w

Strangers

“Did I keep you waiting?” Her calm mellifluous voice came from behind, prompting him to veer around to be sure it was her. He couldn't conclude when she never returned his call. He was damn worried, thinking that he had said what he wasn't supposed to say last night.Although part of him regretted how he ended things abruptly with her he was aware of her feelings. He wouldn't have told her about his wife yesterday if he knew today was her birthday. “It hasn't been long since I got here. Thanks for coming.” “About the text, I didn't reply since I was going to come, I thought it was not necessary. I'm sorry if you're upset.” She apologized while getting close to him. Now that they were standing next to each other around the poolside, she began to feel awkward.“No, I'm not upset. What matters now is you're here. Happy birthday, Gwen. I hope you had a lovely day.” She inhaled deeply as she gazed around. “Yeah, I did. Kathryn never stopped asking about you and she bragged about her cak

You must love me

Margaret could scarcely sleep all night, her mind was overwhelmed with a series of thoughts running through it. Ever since he left the room, he never returned. She couldn't check him in his office because it requested a passcode to enter and Lucien had never shared his privacy with her on any occasions. He cherished his time alone. Waking up the next day, she was lazily lingering in his bed, hoping to see him when he entered. If he indeed remembered everything as he claimed, she knew what came after that. Back to being a cold-hearted man. When she heard the feeble footsteps, it was as if he wasn't walking at all, so gentle and feeble. She knew quite well that he was sauntering over to the bed. To her greatest surprise, he put his phone on the nightstand, not sparing her a glance even though she was pretending to be asleep while facing him. Lucien used the intercom to inform Mr. Robert to tell his driver to get ready, he would be down in thirty minutes. Without a word to her, he wen

Love is an illusion

“It hasn't been a week since you guys got a divorce, but I think I should ask if you're okay, Gwen,” Lilith said with concern as she fixed her eyes on the road.Gwendolyn glanced at Lilith and pouted while nodding. “Yeah, I'm good. Why are you asking?”“I'm just worried about you since you haven't said anything about it since the divorce. I'm always afraid when you're silent,” Lilith explained, hoping that Gwendolyn would share her feelings with her.“You have nothing to be afraid of. But I'll be perfectly fine.” Gwendolyn admitted to feeling uncertain about her emotions. She sometimes felt fine but at other times felt worse than ever. Despite this, she continued to act normal while concealing her true feelings. Lilith, however, could see through her facade.“How good is that?”“One hundred percent. Trust me, Lil, you have nothing to worry about. I'm okay. After all, it's just a divorce and not the end of the world. I'm glad Mr. Redgrave helped us handle the media, it seems like no on

Not too late

Today was going to be a busy day. After checking his schedules, he knew he might never get the chance to go out with Jennifer as he had promised her. Also, he was planning to visit his grandfather after the board meeting scheduled to commence in the morning. As the vice chairman his presence was imperiously needed, many things had to be done at the company which was why he was leaving early.“Do you need me to drive you to the company today, sir?” Mr. Robert enquired on their way out.“I don't think that'll be necessary,” Lucien replied, not looking at him. On their way to the living room, he encountered Margaret, without sparing her a glance he walked past her, feigning ignorance of her presence. “All right, Sir.”Mr. Robert pivoted his head to look behind, he saw how she walked with reluctance with her gaze fixed on him instead of where she was heading. How many months had been since they were back to living like strangers? Perhaps two months now. Also, he could see how cold he had

Coincidence

“Maybe instead of waiting for Lilith to catch up with us, Mr. Robert can drive you to the industry.” Lucien implied, ignoring the awkwardness that had evolved in the car. Ever since she hopped in the car with him, she hadn't spared him a glance. Her gaze was once lowered to her entwined hands on her lap before staving off her gaze to the window, scrutinizing in a calm steady manner. She parted her lips, moistening her lower lip before speaking up. “Don’t you have somewhere to be, Mr. Redgrave? You appeared to be heading somewhere important earlier. I appreciate your offer but I beg to decline.” Her voice was softer and calmer than before, however, her reaction hadn't changed because she was still clenching one of her fists.Not like he couldn't read the room, he vaguely could guess that she was comfortless being around him. Still, he couldn't understand why she was on her guard around him. “It’s nowhere important. And if I may ask, is everything all right?”“I believe my location was

Babysitting a pregnant woman

“Remind me again. What are we doing here, Gwen? Didn't you say you want to spend your day hopping all around the house and then go shopping as a break after being swamped with tons of work for months? So tell me, why are we here again?” Lilith sniveled dramatically, emphasizing her words while following her inside.Gwendolyn chuckled softly. Understanding Lilith’s reluctance; she already knew what she was thinking because anyone could guess that the only time she showed up at the mansion was either to get scolded by her father or to amend her mistake. However, the case was a bit different today. Today, however, They had a special role to play.“Kathryn invites me over. That's why we're here.” She explained with a warm smile across her face, hoping that she would buy it.Her expression became sour, knowing what awaited them, Lilith wished she could just turn around and run. “So we're here to babysit a pregnant woman.”She nodded. “Dad went on a business trip and she's alone. You know s

A reason to let you go

“Have you forgotten about our plan tonight?” His eyes narrowed down at her and his shapely cut eyebrows furrowed.“I don't remember ever telling you I'll be going out with you tonight. Also, I distinctly remember turning you down.”He let out a soft scoff. “I don't take no for an answer, Gwen. Moreover, you're already dressed and you look ravishing tonight, the dress looks good on you.” He complimented her, maintaining his natural demeanor.She gasped. Not like he gave a certain expression she was hoping to see but hearing him compliment her surprised her and she was nearly speechless. “Wh-what…thank you.” She stuttered.Eventually, a short smile snakes across his warm face. “Then shall we?”Gwendolyn was left speechless for a brief moment, how she was supposed to handle the situation perplexed her. She was aware Jeffery would be at her place at any moment and also Lucien was the last person she wanted to be with tonight, especially when she wasn't clear-headed. She moistened her low

Unwavering feelings

“I'm not supposed to tell you this.”Perplexed, his brow ceased. “Tell me what? Did my grandfather threaten you?”She groaned with frustration and dampened her lower lip to hide her anxiety but her lips were still trembling. She attained her erect posture, staring deeply into his mariner blue eyes, she breathed out slowly and then turned to the chair. She sat down and gestured to him to do the same. However, he remained on his feet, stuffed his hands in his pockets, impatiently waiting for her to divulge every secret she was holding in.“I was invited to Redgrave mansion, and at first, I thought it was you who sent the invite. It turned out to be your grandfather, Mr. Robert, who approached me. I realize that what I did to you was terrible. However, I want to remind you that I asked for your consent, and you agreed to marry me. I didn't understand why people thought I had forced you into this. If you had refused that day, I would have accepted it, although I might have still tried to

One last time

“I surmise I was worried for nothing.” Immediately after the teleconference ended Margaret puffed out a sigh of relief, shuffling away from him to get seated on the couch in his home office. “It’s late,” He glanced over the wall clock. It was already past midnight and he was tired after a long day. If the project wasn't important to Margaret he wouldn’t have assisted her. His resting time was important to him more than anything else.“Thank you so much. I'm so lucky you're my husband, Lucien.” She muttered, pausing for air before continuing. “There's something I'd like to discuss with you but it seems that you're drained tonight. Maybe tomorrow.” She struggled with words, hoping that wouldn't provoke him.“Yes, I'm tired and I can't listen to anything right now. Also don't get your hopes up,” He shut his laptop, rose from his swirling office chair, then took his phone on his desk and headed toward the door. She watched him until he exited the office. She puffed out a despairing sigh
