101. can't love again

Seeing that Liam hadn't come to bother her, Elise was pleased. Nathan didn't turn up either after the rejection. She didn't mean to be harsh, but she had to.Now, it was two down, one to go. And that one was leaning against a car, the sun casting an otherworldly orange glow on his face. Damien was... hot. Elise had to admit that even though she didn't want to."You're here," he turned to gaze at her, his eyes deep and mysterious."Hmm,""Hop in," he gestured with his chin.Elise got in as he opened the door for her like a gentleman. She racked her brain for a way to reject him. Amongst the men, he seemed like the hardest to chase off."Where are we going?" she asked."A place you'll like," he replied, acting mysterious.Elise and Damien were walking side by side when they crossed paths with Maria and her friends.Maria's eyes flashed with malice as she crossed her arms, approaching Elise."So you're cheating on Ellison with this man?" Maria scanned Damien from head to toe, snickering.

102. Am I incomparable to him?

Damien took her hand, leading her onto the dance floor. She was a fast learner. Soon, she could keep up with his rhythm and speed, synchronizing wonderfully with him. Elise was surprised that he could dance too. She had too much fun relaxing and dancing that she forgot she wanted to reject him.The following days, Damien would always come and take her out. His real purpose was to make her less stressed and release the tension in her body. Because of her strict schedule and work routine, Elise often had little time for herself.She needed to catch up with her life and what she had lost during those three years. Elise couldn't help taking an extra look at Damien whenever he came to pick her up.Meanwhile, Kayden saw the photos online. The veins on his forehead threatened to burst as he saw them acting lovey-dovey. Unconsciously, he crumpled a document in his hand."Sir? Sir?"Kayden snapped out of his thoughts."What is it?""You're..." Jackson pointed to the document in his hand, "Dest

103. Unable to get pregnant

"Kayden is Kayden. You're you. I'll talk to my brothers to stop setting us up. I think they didn't get the message that I don't really want to get into a relationship. Goodbye, Mr. D'Augstino," Elise hailed a cab and got in without looking back.She addressed him by his surname, putting distance between them.Damien watched as the cab disappeared down the lane. A sigh slipped from his lips."Elise, you have no idea how long I've waited for you," Damien lit a cigarette and placed it in his mouth.Meanwhile, in the cab, Elise sent angry messages to all her brothers in the group chat, telling them not to set her up with any men.Ellison: Dad and our Stepmom would.Edward: Come on. He's better than Kayden, that jerk.Donovan: I'm serious. We didn't tell him where you were, and we didn't initiate anything. It was he himself who approached you in the first place. Don't you remember? We only thought that it was a good way for you to be with someone new.Nikolai: Yeah, Don's right.Ellison: W

104. Someone you offended

Elise was forcefully yanked out of the car and thrown onto the dirty soil. She quickly stood up, eyes darting left and right, looking for a place to hide or run."Come here! Don't think about running," he pulled out a gun.A real gun! Elise gulped as fear slithered down her back, wrapping around her limbs.She slowly approached, praying and hoping that her brothers would get to her location as soon as possible."First, I'm going to fuck you and see what you got that made Ellison King and Damien D'Augstino so in love with you. Then I'll finish you. You can die on my cock for all that matters. Hahaha!" The man laughed.Hearing such words made her feel disgusted and nauseous."What's your name?" Elise asked, forcing herself to keep calm."Why ask and try to gather evidence when you're dying?""I just want to..." Elise thought of a ridiculous lie. "Want to know your name so that I can moan it,"Elise felt like puking and punching herself in the face for saying this. But this was for her s

105. Didn't give you permission

"W-why?""Trust me, principessa. You don't want to see what I'm going to do to this bastard,""Don't kill him. I need to know who's behind him,""At your service,"Elise did as he told her. But she chose to stand outside. After a few minutes, Damien walked out of the hut, knuckles bruised. He had put on his shirt.She knew that he must have tortured Gary."You've hurt your knuckles," she pointed out.Damien chuckled. "This is nothing,""Nothing? You've bruised your skin there and call it nothing?! Come over here!" Elise chided him. She applied ointment on the bruises and the small cuts there. Damien gazed at her the whole time."Someone paid him a large sum of money to kill you,"Four cars pulled to a stop in front of them. The doors opened and her brothers stepped out."Elise!" Edward called, rushing to his sister. Elise released Damien's hand quickly when Edward hugged her."Are you okay?" Ellison scanned her up and down for any injuries."I'm okay," Elise replied.The brothers brea

106. Chris Evans is more handsome

"You're shameless!" Elise scolded, turning her face away to hide the redness creeping up her cheeks. Why the hell was she blushing so easily? It was just a kiss to the forehead. He didn't even touch her lips."I have to be shameless to get your attention. Then... do I get to see you every day, principessa? You won't chase me away?" He looked at her hopefully. The skies were getting darker and darker. His eyes seemed to have become brighter."Does chasing you away work? You'll still stalk me," Elise sighed, pretending to be exasperated and angry at him. Truth was that she somehow couldn't bring herself to be angry after what happened today. Her mind was on the hitman and who wanted to kill her."No. I'll stalk you to the ends of the world," He didn’t release her waist. Instead, he pressed her against his chest harder, gazing into her eyes so intensely as if he wanted to set her on fire.Elise should be running, should be avoiding him and rejecting him. But somehow, there was something

107. Teach me

"Damien, I want you to teach me martial arts," Elise said, standing in his office. This was the first time she had stepped into his office. She also wanted to take this opportunity to thank him for saving her life.Damien leaned forward, fingers interlocking on the desk. "Really? Aren't you always avoiding me?""Even if I avoided you, you would still come back. There's no point. Besides..." Elise trailed off, thinking about the phone call she had with her stepmother last night.Bianca had called her after hearing about the incident. The conversation between them went from cursing Gary and the mastermind to Bianca advising her.Elise didn't want to tell her family about it, but Nikolai accidentally let it slip.Luckily, her father didn't hear any of it. If not, who knows what might happen to the whole city."Elise, just because you failed in one relationship doesn't mean you have to stop all your other relationships. People deserve a fair chance, don't you think? I'm not going to push

108. How are her legs?

"I called you because I had an accident. I never thought that I would get hit by a car while crossing the road. It was like the driver had some deep-seated grudge with me. My legs..." Jessica touched her leg gently, wincing. "I don't think I can walk anymore, Kayden! I'm so scared!"Tears started to fall from her eyes. She began to sniff and sob pitifully, her eyes red and puffy.Guilt crept into Kayden's heart. He should have answered the phone. He should have read her messages.He didn’t because he thought she was going to nag or pester him. He just wanted to avoid her and have some quiet time to think things through."I'm sorry, Jessie. I'm so sorry. I was busy..." Kayden knelt down to her level."It's okay. I don't blame you. I have never blamed you for anything, Kayden. This is all my fault. I shouldn't have made so many mistakes. Look what happened to me. Maybe it's karma. I'm so sorry, Kayde," Jessica choked on sobs, squeezing out more tears.A lot of tears fell from her eyes a

109. Bianca Kingsley

Elise turned and saw Jessica coming towards her in a wheelchair, calling her name with that sickly fake smile of hers. She made it sound as if they were good friends."Elise! I thought I saw you from afar. I'm so glad you're here," Jessica said in a friendly tone."Don't act as if we're close. We're not friends," Elise said, glaring at her so icily that Jessica was taken aback."Oh, sorry. My mistake. I apologize. Hello, Mr. D'Augstino and Mrs. King. Is Ellison here as well?" Jessica said."Why are you looking for him? What business do you have with him?""You misunderstood. I thought you were here with him because he's your boyfriend. But you seem close to Mr. D'Augstino as well. Won't that put Mrs. King in a tight spot?" Jessica said, appearing as if she were concerned. As a woman, Elise could sense the malice and hypocrisy beneath her tone.Jessica was subtly painting Elise as a cheating woman in front of Mrs. King.Bianca glared at Jessica. When she appeared in her wheelchair in f

110. Just a younger version!

Kayden saw Jessica pushing herself over with a lot of difficulty. She was huffing and puffing, face pale and looking miserable."Jessica," He went over calmly and helped to move her wheelchair, passing the cotton candy to her."Kayden, I'm glad you're here. Thank you for the candy," Jessica took it. She bit into it slowly, looking at Kayden.Would he feed me the candy? She thought of making their relationship more interesting."Hmm," Kayden replied. He glanced at her, his eyes held a mysterious look as if he was avoiding her on purpose.Jessica didn't know why he was looking at her like this. Why did it seem like he was repulsed by her? But that can't be! Kayden loved her! He loved her the most, right?"Kayden, I..." Jessica trailed off when she looked at him, just as she wanted to ask him to feed her the candy.He was staring in the direction of where he saw Elise leave with Damien and Bianca.Damnit! Why was he still thinking about Elise? No, this can't do! She must try to get rid o
