Semua Bab THE GLASS WIFE; the storm he built himself : Bab 41 - Bab 50

ELIOT'S POVDoing even much worse things that would definitely put me, US in jeopardy if the press or anyone was to figure her out the way I have done!“Arghhh!” I punched the wall nearest to me. Several of her glass-like cosmetics bottles, rattling in their wake as a result of the hit.“Eli?” May’s voice called, confusing me for a moment cause I refuse to believe she just followed me in here!“Eli what’s going on? Serena already went out earlier, why are you calling for her?” I remained silent. Just slowly massaging my aching temples as I tried to calm down a bit. But this fucking chit wasn’t taking the clue.“She looked really beautiful today too, even more than she did yesterday when her date came to pick her up. You should’ve seen it! They truly looked good together. Just so cute! Especially when he held out the door for her, put his hands on her waist and just-“Shut up!” I snapped, hit the wall again. My furious eyes turning to her. “You really don’t know when it keep it together

ELIOT’S POVThe sound of shattering glass rang in my ears. Its sound loud and crisp! Immediately sending bolts of satisfaction pulsating through my veins. “Ahh,” I breathed, hard. My glaring eyes sweeping over the dark space that was the guest room I occupied.“Stupid Inner circle gathering! Sovereign Society, what do I even need them for?” My anger continued to rage, the soles of my black dress shoe crushing on the shreds of glass scattered over the place as I bent for the now broken phone.The light went off the moment I touched it, confirming it was indeed broken. “Useless,” I spat, tossing it aside as I ripped off my tie and hit the call button on the wall. “Get someone in here, there’s a mess. Get me Rosa”I was just about to release the button when it came through, “Err, Sir she’s not home yet.” the chef, Harlod’s voice came through. “She went out with Madam,”My jaw clenched at the words. Eyes narrowing, but it meant one thing; May was not lying. She was probably right about the

SERENA’S POV“Yes Madam!” Rosa choked out, probably appalled as well by this douche bag’s behavior. The maids quickly ran around to pick up my stuff scattered all over the place, and with one last glare at his fuming features, I turned on heels!“I’m not done talking to you,”“I’m done talking to you!” I spat out, not looking back as I stormed up on the stairs. The heat of his gaze following my every step.“Serena,”“Serena, stop right there!” he cussed loudly, but I still continued. Determined to take this to the very end since that was what he wanted.He was mad, well so was I!“Take down that picture, Serena.” His voice followed me, “Take down that picture, else-“Else what!” I turned to him, not believing I was even entertaining this. “What are you going to do? And what picture do you keep talking about?!”He scowled, “You and Axel will have more knowledge about that, don’t you think?” his words sounded bitingly, before he turned around and down the stairs. The maids scurrying awa

SERENA’S POVDo you ever look at someone and feel like you're staring into the face of everything that's ever wrong with your life? Like the very reason or source of all your problems. All of it.Because I have.And not just physically anymore, even in my dreams! Eliot was appearing in my dreams now. Can you believe that?I couldn’t be more livid to be honest. I had shot up from bed, realizing what had happened. That was the end of sleeping for me. “I’ve had enough sleep,” I had told myself. So instead, I spent the remaining hours of the night practicing the exact thing I had bought those paper boards for- visualizing bold designs.Vivienne’s words still echoed in my mind; “More of this and less of those timid sketches, then watch yourself shine!” she had said in her email.She had become my Icon at this point. Her every word giving me life and hope. A burning, unrelenting hope deep inside of me! And with it, I used it to push myself even more. Determined to do as she had said.Bold De

SERENA’S POV“Ready?”I took a deep breath, one last time to calm my nerves. “Ready,” I smiled, and right after the sound of curtains being pulled apart filled the air.The bright light from the fitting lounge pouring in as I stood, slightly skeptical as my eyes took it all in. The massive floor length mirrors on every corner of the wide spaced lounge, the comfortable cream colored couches to match, smiling faces of the assistants standing around and finally, a set of baby blue eyes. Just staring up at me from his phone.No words said.A few seconds passed and still nothing. No words, no comments. “Is something wrong?” I voiced out, slightly worried now. But I didn’t even wait for a response before stepping down from the podium the attendants had helped me change on.My legs quickly leading me to the path of the mirrors. A startled gasp leaving my lips as I stared right back at my own reflection. Not believing my eyes. “Oh God,” I breathed silently.Standing face to face was someone th
