Damien and Lawrence got back to the hotel, they went straight to Damien's room. Damien leaned on the wall with his head up, while Lawrence just sat on the bed studying Damien for a while. The room was so silent, the two young men in the room were thinking about the whole situation at hand now."Did you mean it when you said you will ruin her family if she doesn't provide for your sister?" Lawrence broke the silenceDamien turned his attention to Lawrence with an expressionless face"Was I laughing when I said that? Did you think I'm joking? " Damien askedLawrence studied Damien's face for any sign of emotion but there was none. "Why do you want to involve the innocent family in this issue? You are no different from Nora and Laura if you go on with that" Lawrence asked"Really, did you just say innocent family? My family too was innocent when she connived with that Jezebel to ruin us. My mother did nothing to them, I don't know of their past life though. Even if my mother wronged the
** States~Seattle****Next morning***Damien and Lawrence set out to Laura's house after they finished eating their breakfast. They got a cab and went straight to Laura's home. They got there after a short period, just as Laura was taking Noelle to board her school bus which was waiting in front of their house"Hey there Mr. Handsome," Noelle waved at Damien, sighting him from afarLaura turned sharply to behold Damien walking towards them with the same guy he came with yesterday, Lawrence if she remembers correctlyDamien waved back at Noelle since she was getting into her bus"Be a good girl at school okay?" Damien saidNoelle nodded and went on to enter the busLaura stood there watching Damien and Lawrence as they walked to her"Hello, Mrs. Laura Jones" Damien greeted sarcasticallyLawrence just smirked as Laura became restless once again. She had planned on leaving the house right after Noelle had taken her bus, little did she know the duo was going to come so early in the mornin
They all turned to the doorway to look at the owner of the voice. Laura's eyes widen in shock as she saw the person standing there with tears, the look in his eyes was one she had never wished to see, the look of disappointment. "How could you be this wicked and heartless? I would have never believed it if anyone had told me the woman I'm married to was this evil" Dennis said, as tears of disappointment kept running down his face The person who happened to be standing in the doorway was Dennis, Laura's husband. He had forgotten some files in the house and he decided to come and pick them up quickly and leave for work. In a hurry and not to bother the security too much, he packed his car outside the house and came in instead, which is why they didn't notice his presence. He had been standing outside listening to all their conversation as he happen to have heard the part where she had connived with Nora to bring Queenster to the States, he paused and decided to listen to everything. N
Noelle kept giggling as she raced up the stairs, her father chasing her. She missed a step and rolled down the stairs"Noelle...." Dennis screamedEverybody turned their attention to the father and daughter little play but was shocked to see little Noelle rolling down the stairs while her father was standing halfway on the stairs on the other side. The stairs were two, one on the left and another on the right. Noelle was fast enough to climb the right stairs which were the closest while Dennis chased her. She was already on the other staircase on the left when Dennis tried catching her on the right staircase. Due to the excitement of running around, she missed a step when she tried to look back at her father."My baby!!!!" Laura screamed in agonyEverybody rushed to the stairs but Damien was faster, he picked Noelle up and headed out immediately. He dropped her in Dennis's car and they all got in boozing off to the hospital. ***At the hospital**Laura couldn't stop crying since Noelle
*** The States~ New York City***A limousine made its entry into a huge house, and a lady got down from it, looking stern. The guards surrounding the house bowed as she walked towards the door of the house planning to enter the houseThe young lady walked into the house dressed as professionally as ever, with her usual cold face. The maids kept bowing at her and greeting her, but as usual, she ignored them and kept walking steadily, her head up with prideShe is a well-known noble lady, though she has not been in the business world for long, her intelligence has earned her the respect and good name she has now gotten herself"Where are my grandparents?" She asked coldlyBefore the maid she asked could reply, Mr. and Mrs. Banks appeared in the large living room, they had been expecting her for longThe lady removed her shades and settled on one of the couches"Cold water," she said, and one of the maids brought it to herShe took it and gulped it down slowly before returning the glass
Queenster stopped her car and got down, she couldn't drive since her mind is not letting her do so in peace. She kept thinking of what her grandparents just said, her journey back to the country in which she vowed never to step foot in has become a headache for her. She couldn't have refused her grandparents either, they have been so good to her these past 5 years, and this is the first time they are requesting something from her, she couldn't have just refused them. She walked to a bridge and kept staring at the water under the bridge with an expressionless face She recalled all she had been through in Italy, her mother's death, her senior brother's death too, her father leaving her in the hands of a stranger, her only hope, her beloved brother who also abandoned her, and all a whole lot. All these puts together are the bad memories in Italy she wants to forget about but it seems fate has something else in store for her instead of supporting her, it's rather against her. She has
*******Seattle~ At the hospital***Damien and Lawrence came out of the car they brought. Lawrence moved to the driver and asked him to wait for them since they had their luggage in the car, as Damien waited for him to join him to say their final farewell to the Jones family. They walked into the hospital and headed straight to little Noelle's ward. They had gone to their house earlier, but they were informed by the security the couple had come to visit their daughter. They made their way into Noelle's ward when they got to it, Damien pushed the door gently not wanting to wake Noelle up in case she was sleeping. Unfortunately, she was not asleep, she was sitting on her bed playing games and giggling at herself as her parents sat near her bed watching her. Noelle refused to look up when the door screeched open thinking it was one of the nurses who is there to check on her and administer medication for her as usual. She hated to be in the hospital though, but poor her what can she do i
Dennis entered one of the washrooms and began shedding tears, Damien found him and walked up to him"You know she is just a kid right? Besides kids don't know what we go through just to make them feel happy. She pulled that stunt on you guys just for fun, she never meant for it to go this far, you don't have to get worked up with her actions all the time. What you just did get the little girl scared, although she is scared yet, she still thinks about you. She doesn't like you getting mad at all, just see her actions as childish and forgive her" Damien said"I'm not mad at her, I just don't want to make any mistake of losing her for any reason. She is very dear to me, whenever she does such a thing, it gets my heart racing. She is all I have got, that's why I want to make sure she is always fine" Dennis said as more tears kept rolling down his face"I don't know much about parenting but the little time I spent with my mom got me to understand the undying love your parents have for your
