All Chapters of His Reluctant Obsession : Chapter 1 - Chapter 6

Lana"My boyfriend just got engaged to someone else," I said, gulping the content in the glass I was holding."That must be hard," the insanely handsome man replied. He sounded sorry for me.Yeah... I am definitely pitiful."Why is a guy like you in a bar like this?" I asked.I'm not stupid. I see the way he’s dressed, he looks like one of those rich people that frequent the restaurant I work at, but it’s quite odd I’ve never seen him before. Maybe he’s a new billionaire, or maybe he just moved into Los Angeles. Probably here for business."Trying to get away for some time," he replied with a shrug, and I sighed."Running away from responsibilities. Sounds like something I would do," I chuckled as my eyes went to the bottle of beer in front of me.This beer costs a lot, and I’m sure as hell I don’t have enough money to pay for it, but who cares? I’m grieving here. My boyfriend of four years just broke up with me-well not literally."He didn’t know what he lost," I heard him say, and I

LanaI pushed the door open, and Beatrice visibly flinched when she saw me. She quickly wiped the tears from her eyes, and I frowned.“What’s wrong?” I asked, my voice laced with worry.“It’s nothing,” she replied calmly, but she knew I wasn’t buying that shît.“If something’s bothering you, Trixie, you can tell me.

Please, just drop it,” Beatrice gritted out and walked past me.I stood there, shocked out of my mind. What on earth is wrong with her?I sighed and walked out of the bathroom.When I got into the living room, Beatrice was already sitting at the dining table, and Lily was sitting beside her.“Aren’t you going to eat, Aunt Lana?” Lily asked, and I smiled at her.“Of course I will,” I answered and sat down to eat.Throughout dinner, Beatrice didn’t say a word, even though Lily kept talking about her day and asking us a bunch of questions.I made it my mission to a

Lana My date with Cole was actually more than I had expected. He was gentle and patient. It’s almost unbelievable. But he has always been like that. I was just too focused on Ethan to notice anything about him. I already told him I’m not ready to date anyone, and he fully understands. Considering the fact that he has been after me for three years, he’s pretty patient and persistent. My mind went back to the date we had a week ago. Everything was going well until I saw him, the guy I met at the bar that day. He was looking straight at me. Even after I averted my gaze, I could still feel his stare on me. As much as my date with Cole was alright, I still can’t get that man out of my head. I even went as far as dreaming about him, and I don’t even know his damn name. My head has been betraying me since then. I can’t go a day without his perfectly sculpted face appearing in my mind. It’s quite unnerving. “Lana?” I heard Beatrice call, and I blinked. “Yes?” I answered. “D
