Semua Bab Her REV LOVE: Bab 61 - Bab 70

I placed the chilli pepper in my mouth and chewed it up fast. Nothing initially, only a faint tingle. Then, a wave of heat tore through my senses, like I had dipped my face into a seething pot of water. My eyes grew wide, reddening in an instant as they reacted to the heat, and I struggled to keep a straight face. I continued to chew the chilli, my mouth ablaze as though someone had lit a match and torched my taste buds.Jack Josephs glanced at me and commented, "Is it hot? Spit it out now. I know you can't handle it."I shook my head, my expression obstinate. "It's not so bad. I can do it. this is nothing, you know, compared to what Lydia went through," I gritted between my teeth. Jack's eyebrow shot up but he said nothing and let me continue. He was waiting for the moment that I would give up. Yet I still chewed the chilli all the way through to the end and down my throat, even when the burning in my mouth worsened, scorching my tongue and making my throat feel like it had been dip

My heart raced as I witnessed Frank's car enter the Josephs mansion. I had been calling Lydia since yesterday, but my calls went unanswered. It was as if she was evading me. Luckily, I had placed someone to monitor her; otherwise, I would not have known she was with Frank."Keep me posted," I told her through gritted teeth when I hung up and threw my phone onto the couch. I had had no time to spend with Lydia since the kidnapping episode because she was always with Frank, nursing him back to health. It felt like I was losing her to him, even though I had risked my life to go save her."No, I'm not losing you to Frank, Lydia. I can lose anything but not you," I told myself, my face set in determination.Meanwhile, Frank had booked the entire restaurant at the most high-class hotel for privacy and safety. Lydia glanced around and frowned. "You didn't have to book the entire thing," she said."I didn't do it to boast. with Dera out there, nobody knows what she would do. She can simply di

I scowled, looking down at the man on the bed, with the twins perched on either side of him. A few hours earlier, I had given in to my daughter's request, her pleading eyes making it difficult for me to deny her. As much as I knew Frank was acting, the exhaustion in his eyes told me there was something I was not seeing.Why did he look so exhausted and tired? And was I imagining things or had he lost weight?I had noticed that Frank's complexion had become pale after the accident. I did not know if it was because he lost so much blood or if there was something wrong with him. Could his injuries be more serious than he let on?When they returned, Frank played with the kids and listened to their stories. But he shortly fell asleep after dinner.It was not normal because Frank was not an early sleeper. The kids had asked to sleep with their dad and seeing them so comfortable with him warmed my heart.My phone rang abruptly and I promptly left the guest room to take the call.I smiled whe

"Neighbor?" Frank looked between Joseph and his sister incredulous. "Since when?""Uh. he lives literally right next to my apartment," Diane blushed remembering the day she thought Joseph had been stalking her. That was the most embarrassing day of her life."I didn't know you're now neighbors with my Uncle Joseph, Diane. Does he still remain a pervert?" I asked playfully, deepening Diane's blush.Although embarrassed, in her mind, Diane thought, 'So, his name is Joseph? It's really a lovely name.'Joseph sneered at the look on Diane's face but did not want to laugh at her when she was standing near her brother, so he said, "What about going in the restaurant? I am starving."We sat down inside the restaurant at a table. We had placed our orders and Joseph turned to Frank and said, "How is the search going for Dera Pete?"Frank furrowed his brow. Dera Pete's name always made him think of what an idiot he had been all those years. Had he known then just how much of a liar she was, the

My heart skipped a thousand emotions swelling above me. Was I dreaming? Was the woman in my arms real? I couldn't believe it. But Lydia's lips moved against mine so passionately that I felt a spark of desire rising within me. Although I was taken aback by Lydia's action, I wrapped my arms around her waist, pulling her closer still, before closing the door violently. I cradled the nape of her neck and then I took over and deepened our kiss. Fireworks burst out and sparks erupted all over as we kissed with so much passion. Deep in my soul, I danced in happiness within me. It was real! Lydia kissed me! It was so surrealistic. like dreaming within a dreamland where Lydia could kiss me willingly. But the deep taste of her lips and the thousands of shivers running through my body pushed me back into the real world. Lydia was in my arms, she was kissing me like. How long did I wait for a kiss like that? A kiss that would be able to convey one's true emotions.I pushed Lydia against the door
