All Chapters of Love Within The Shine: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Estella wasn't sure which stance she would adopt. She was restless after telling Lucius not to be nice to her because she might fall for the young man. She had been turning around on the bed and was unsure of her position. She admitted the truth to him and couldn't have been more careless with what she said. She wants to escape as soon as possible because she doesn't want her heart to fall for the young man. You'd think that at her previous job, a lot of people tried to flirt with her. But her response was always, 'I don't want to; that's not on my mind yet because my priority is my family.' Gosh! Then she'll fall for someone she shouldn't have because they're so different. A big. NO! Never. "What brings you here?" She was anxious and unsure of who was speaking near her room door—whether it was the police or Lucius' manager. "I'm here because I'm worried about you," says a woman. She tried to eavesdrop on the conversation through the tiny gap in the door and saw the lady the youn

She took a deep breath and braced herself for the inevitable realization that hit her like a ton of bricks: she had to clean the entire condo. Since she arrived at the young man's condo, Liam had not let a cleaner in, so she was the one who cleaned every day. She started cleaning and cleaning every part of the condo. She wiped down displays, cleaned the kitchen, swept, and now she is mopping the floor. While Estella was mopping the floor, she didn't notice that a small figurine had fallen. And she accidentally stepped on it, so she lost her balance. She closed her eyes because she knew what was going to happen next. And that's exactly what happened; she saw stars as she fell to the floor. "Ouch!" She screamed because of the sudden and intense pain she was feeling. "My ass..." She rubbed her butt when she felt the pain from falling to the floor. She hit the unforgiving floor; she fell hard, and she didn't know if she would be able to stand up in that position. She didn't intend to

The young man walked quietly while Estella frowned, and then followed the young man with her eyes; he placed the tray he was carrying on the side table. Will he eat in the room? I don't know what's going through this man's mind. Estella talked to herself because the young man's behavior was strange and off-putting. Lucius smiled and said, "How about breakfast in bed?" "Huh?" She answered while not being able to look directly at the young man. He sat on the edge of the bed, facing her, and offered her a plate of food. "I thought you might be hungry, so I brought you something to eat." He placed the plate of food on the bed next to her. Is the food he brought for her? She had warned the young man not to be too nice to her because she was about to fall for it, and that was what she feared would happen. Last night, he also prepared a meal for her. And now here he is, again. She's not sure what to think or how to feel, but one thing is for sure: she can't keep ignoring him. "Why did y

"Lucius, I told you to manage our company, not be an actor, and now what? Look what's happened; all you've worked for has just gone in a flash." "Mom, why did you invite me here? Is there an important event?" he asked his mother, ignoring what his father was saying to him, which he had no intention of listening to. "Lucius. It's time for you to take responsibility in our company.” His father said sternly. "You must understand that you can't just do whatever you want without considering our business. Your mother and I have invested a lot of time and money into this company, and you need to show respect for that. You need to make sure to take the necessary steps to ensure that our investments are protected and that the company is run properly.” “No, I don’t want to be involved in your company.” “Lucius, son, why won't you listen to your daddy? We just had dinner together.” Before, Lucius listened to what his dad was saying; now the situation is very different because, when he looke

Lucius had left the house 15 hours ago, leaving Estella alone and restless. She was already concerned about the young man because she hadn't seen him since the morning and didn't know what time it was. He still hadn't returned. It's been gone all day, and she can't sleep while she waits. And while she waited here, frustration gradually ate away at her heart. She was worried every time she didn't see the young man for the entire afternoon because she suspected he was up to something she wasn't aware of. She didn't completely trust Lucius. But she had no choice but to wait for him. She was beginning to feel restless and decided to take a walk to clear her head. As she walked, she tried to think of anything else besides the young man. Her brain and heart felt like they were going to explode with worry and wondering. She got up and looked out the window, but she couldn't hear any cars. She walked to the door and put her hand on the knob, but she didn't turn it. She was too afraid of what
