062. “What are we going to do about Bella?” Alan asked after Bella left. Lucas sighed and took his seat. “What do you mean?” Alan leaned forward, worry etched on his face. “If you and Janette get back together, do you think Bella will just let you be?” he asked and Lucas raised an eyebrow as he thought about it. “We have no idea what she wants or why she came back. But don’t you think she might be waiting to separate you two again?” “That’s not possible,” Lucas answered. “She already has a son. That means she’s married.” “Then why does she keep coming here?” Alan asked and Lucas pinched the bridge of his nose. “Don’t you find it suspicious? If she’s married, she wouldn’t be coming here to remind you about the past.” “I thought she was only trying to make me feel bad for losing Janette.” “But what if there are ulterior motives?” Alan asked and Lucas sighed. “I didn’t want to say this before but you have to be prepared. Have you seen her husband anywhere?” “How’s that supposed to

064.Lucas watched Janette as she mixed the batter, his love for her growing with each passing moment. His eyes were on her through all the process. Janette looked up and their eyes met.“Are you watching me or what I’m doing, Mr. Harry?” she asked.Lucas shamelessly nodded. “Both.”Janette rolled her eyes. When she was done and put the cake in the oven, she turned to face him, his eyes were still on her. She folded her arms. “Seriously? You aren’t going to stop staring at me?” she asked.Lucas took a step forward and took her hand in his. “Do you want me to stop?” he asked, his voice low and his gaze fixed on her.Janette bit her lower lip. “Uhhh…”“You’re hesitating,” he smirked. “That means you do not want me to stop.”Janette scoffed. “Of course I want you to stop.”“Then why did you hesitate?” he asked, closing the distance between them.Janette met his gaze, her heart pounding in her chest. She tried to maintain her composure, but the intensity of his stare was making it difficu

066.CALIFORNIA…“What the heck did you just say?” Liam asked, his fists tightened so hard his knuckles were turning white.“Her car drove into the Harry’s mansion. She’s been there for like three hours now, and the informant says she hasn’t driven out of there yet.” Victor spoke up from the other end of the phone.Liam couldn’t believe what he was wearing. Did Janette actually wait for him to leave before going to see Lucas? And why didn’t she tell him where she was when he called? Did that mean she didn’t trust him at all? He couldn’t believe that he hadn’t been gone a day and Lucas was already being an asshole. Oh, he couldn’t wait to teach the bastard a lesson.“You know, Victor,” he began, his voice taking on a more dangerous tone. “I didn’t want to follow my father’s plan from the beginning, but I think I will. If Lucas can play dirty by calling my woman to his place when I’m not in town, then I can play dirty as well.”“What are you going to do?” Victor asked.Liam chuckled. “W

068.When Janette was out of the restaurant, she leaned on the wall there, fearing that if she moved further, she might fall. Her heart was aching badly and he began to feel instant regret. All the things she said echoed in her head and she placed both palms on her head and ruffled her hair.Tears rolled down her cheeks as she heard Lucas’ shout. She said she’d forgiven him but why did she say all those mean words to him? She could have just turned him down politely or better still walked away, but she just had to get all emotional and cause both of them pain. Maybe she had said all those words because she hated him for real, but a deeper part of her knew that she’d only said those words because she hated what she felt at that moment. Rosa, who was at a corner with Alan and had seen her walking out — looking all dejected, rushed to her immediately with Alan trailing behind her. When Janette saw them, she snickered. “I guess this is the guy you said you had feelings for,” she began, h

070.Five Days Later…Janette walked into her office, her eyes widening when she saw a bouquet of roses resting on the desk with a note attached to it. She needed no one to tell her who it was from—Lucas—this was what he had been doing for the past five days. She’d even have to send Rosa to Alan to warn him, but it seemed the more she warned him, the more stubborn he became.She took the bouquet of roses and wondered why they smelled like chocolates only for her to see a small box of chocolate from Ronald’s in them. It was her favorite. How did he even know that?Janette recalled telling years ago to always get it for her on his way back from work, and he would deny her of it every time, but always ended up bringing it home whenever he returned. She opened the box of chocolates, her eyes lighting up in excitement when the soft aroma wafted past her nostrils. She took one and unwrapped it. When she put it in her mouth, her eyes closed in delight. She couldn’t recall the last time she
