All Chapters of REVENGE IS A GAME: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

LUCAS’s POINT OF VIEWI was so stunned that she cooked for me. I can't remember the last time I ate food not prepared by either Nana or the chef in my house, so of course I was shocked she took out her time and prepared something for me to eat. “Ava, are you serious? But it is still quite early for breakfast don't you think?”“Sir, where I used to work my boss eats as early as 9 am”“You used to work as a chef? Where? When?”I noticed how she turned around and bit her fingers. She obviously didn't want to talk to me about her past and I wasn't planning on forcing her at all.“It is fine Ava if you don't want to talk about it. You know I will never force you, right?”She nodded and smiled at me.“Let me take a shower, Ava. I will join you soon. You should check up on Nana or if you want we can do it together. We can check up on her together”I said with a soft voice and a smile. I didn't want her to think in any way that I was trying to impose anything on her. “I will wait for you, s

AVA’s POINT OF VIEWI wore the dress and immediately I got downstairs I saw how Lucas pinned his gaze on me. It is a black dress with stripes of red. I let down my long black hair and applied a little red lipstick. He kept staring at me till I joined him in the car.“Can we go, sir?”“Ava, sorry I mean Lily. You look gorgeous. Very gorgeous, Lily”“Sir you know you can call me whatever name you want, right? Be it, Lily or Ava, I am fine with both. Trust me. And thank you for complimenting me. Where exactly are we headed to? I guess I don't look too serious?”I asked and he smiled. I looked at my dress and looked at his. Well, men don't usually dress too seriously no matter the occasion, or place, right? He wore pants and trousers, a suit shirt, and black palm slippers. He looked quite simple while I on the other hand looked overdressed. I guess he noticed I was not comfortable. He held my hand and patted my thighs gently. “It is fine, Lily. Trust me you look great. You know I would

Lucas already knew that Taylor and Ava would get along well. They were already shaking hands and laughing together, and Taylor was also picking clothes for Ava.Lucas got a call from Tom Fontane, the guy he told to find his mother for me. His Nana never wanted to talk about his mother because, according to her, his mother was a very bad woman who left her son alone for her own selfish reasons. His Nana explained to him that his mother was not ready to be a mother, but the doctors said if she aborted the child she might also die in the process, so she only gave birth to him because she didn't want to die, not because she wanted him. Immediately after Lucas turned 3 she sneaked out of the house leaving a small note on the side of his Nana. Nana cried bitterly when Lucas's mother left. Nana trained Lucas all by herself up to the level that he had gotten to. He always thanked God for his Nana, and she knows how much I loved her. When he was 16, he started working part-time jobs to make e

The waiter stared at Ava like she had no idea what she was talking about but she knew what she did. She was only trying to act like a saint.“Ava, is something wrong?”“Sir, when she came here to take my order she touched my shoulder and said it was a mistake but did the same with you”Lucas stared at the waiter and she bowed her head then they both smiled at each other. Why are they smiling? Do they know each other? No way they know each other. This can't be real. I forgot he said he comes here a lot. Ava thought to herself while staring at the waiter.“Ava, I didn't tell you about this but she is Taylor’s younger sister, Evelyn. Didn't you see her at the wedding?”I used my hands to cover my mouth and I stared at her apologetically.“I am so sorry. Why didn't you say anything to me earlier?”“I was surprised you didn't recognize me but I didn't want to impose it on you. And why have you been calling her Ava? Thought her name was Lily?”Evelyn asked then Lucas and Ava stared at each

When they got home Lucas carried Ava in his arms back to the room. As much as she felt embarrassed she tried not to show it too much. Lucas placed Ava on the bed and told her he would be right back. He left and Ava's mind flashed back to what they discussed inside the car about her not having a friend.When she was in Los Angeles she never had any friends. She was a lone wolf and would always struggle to fit in. When she sent an application to be an assistant chef in the Blackwood house she was rejected 5 times and the last time she tried, which was the sixth time, was when she got it. I remember how much I celebrated with my parents that day and I was unable to sleep a day before I moved into the house. Ava said to herself quietly.When Ava first moved in she was very focused on her job and nothing else. She would always go to bed immediately after they were done for the day and she would also wake up early. It was a daily routine for her. Ava would go home on her days off and spend
