Semua Bab Imperfection: Bab 51 - Bab 60

It’s been a month since Lillian’s return and to her disappointment, things have not progressed between her and Shane. So many times she had tried to get him alone and talk but he either ignores her or hurts her with his words. Sometimes she doubts if he still has any little feelings for her, but anytime she sees how he acts like an obstacle whenever Xavier Gray tries to approach her, she would always rethink. Maybe Edna was right, he was hurting and the only way to relieve him from his pain is by telling him everything, how it all happened. But getting him to listen is her biggest challenge.Lying on the couch in her living room, she let her mind wander far to how life became the way it was, the first time she met Robert, the day he asked her to marry him, her wedding day. She sighed and closed her eyes, remembering how unhappy she was that day. Although Robert made her understand that it was for her own good and safety, it didn’t change the fact that she had only dreamt of marrying o

She sighed and asked after a while, “where do you stay now?”“I have a penthouse.”“What’s the address?”He frowned, “I can’t remember,” he shook his head and sighed afterwards, “I have a better idea, why don’t you take me to your home?”“What?” She looked at him, shocked.Shane smiled, “I know, you don’t have a home, you are just my imagination, I tend to forget that sometimes,” he sighed.Lillian said nothing and after some time, she called Philip, “find out Mr. Lockwood’s house address for me.”“Yes ma’am,” he answered and the call ended.***Getting to his building, Lilly had the bellhop help her take him to his penthouse, she put him in the bed and left to close the door after the bellhop. Returning to the living room, she paused when she saw him looking at her, “what?”“You look so real, unlike other times,” he shrugged.“I am real, Shane.”He smiled, “I use to believe that before too. Do you remember the day I went back to Chicago and stayed in the same hotel I stayed with the

“Are you talking about your mother?” Margaret smiled, “oh, she was a good maid, she knew her status unlike her daughter who wanted something higher than her. It was a pity she died so soon.”“And it’s going to be a pity that you will die so soon too Margaret, because my motto is: An eye for an eye. Only that I won’t be the one to kill you, let me reveal spoilers for you,” she leaned forward on her desk, like she wanted to tell her something important, “the internet would.”Margaret frowned, “what the hell are you talking about, maid?”“Don’t worry, you will know soon enough, no need being hasty,” Lillian smiled and looked down at the document on the desk, “although, I can sign my shares to you and you won’t even need to spend your money,” seeing the look of confusion on everyone’s face, her smile broadened and she looked straight at Margret with hatred, “you just have to deliver a present to me, your head in the bag.”The two women stared at each other with intensified hatred for each

The next day, the trending news in the internet was Margaret Lockwood and a well known Tycoon business man by the name, Lucian Ramirez. The news about them was the fact that before the contract of building the bridge landed on Lockwood Enterprises and Inc, Margaret was seen coming out of a hotel room with him. Again was that both of them were also seen, checking into a hotel in Spain and also in a small town like Montana.Without further ado, it was understood by people that Margaret Lockwood may have sold her body to win the contract which she had made a nice speech about winning fair and square. The PR of Lockwood Enterprises and Inc tried to take down the news immediately it was released but it was like someone was working in the shadows. No matter the amount they paid the media house, the post can only be gone for one minute at most before it was back on the top of trending news.Comments were flowing in, some people were writing that Margaret is not that kind of a woman and ever

Shane was shocked when he heard the girl’s words, he looked from her to Lillian, did she say mommy? She has a daughter? He looked back at the little girl and all he could see was five years old Lillian, she was her daughter, there is no doubting it. Lillian has a daughter! The realization sounded like a bomb in his ears.An older woman with white hair entered, she looked from Lillian to Shane and she let her gaze rest on him far longer than necessary before looking back at Lillian, “I’m so sorry ma’am, but she turned up sixty minutes ago with Lincoln and demanded to see you. I tried to get her to wait for you to return but you know how she can be. I had no choice but to bring her here.”“I was shocked ma’am when the receptionist called me and said there was a woman and a child looking for you, I had to ask them up because I already have an idea but just couldn’t believe it,” Philip added.“Mommy?” The little girl called onto Lillian when she just stood there looking at each of them on
