"After succeeding in taking him away from me, you could remember of your bakery and come around here to make sales huh…" she referred to the innocent woman who kept staring at her.Vanessa won't take it likely with her this time. If she had looked at her the first time, then that's because she won't fight her at her own home.But then, the bakery is hers. Therefore, she won't stand hopelessly and watch Lilian a bit more than she can chew."If you loved him so dearly and wouldn't want another woman to take him away from you, why then did you leave him to be alone in such condition? Why Lilian? You are selfish, you know that Right?" Vanessa screeched at her.She dashed into the building. "I can see. So you're planning to take him away from me huh?""I don't have anything to do with your fiance okay. Xavier was in a critical condition, so I had to offer him some help through my doctor. That's all." She explained.She smiled in a hostile manner. "Vanessa you lie. Even before you were empl
Lilian had dozed off while waiting for Xavier to return, she had thought the man was coming back home.Well, she's unaware that Xavier left the company and didn't bother to let her know.Since she had decided to ignore her even in public, he had to let her be for good.She was awoken by the fullness of her bladder that needed to be relieved, and instantly, she returned to the room after making use of the restroom."He isn't yet back, I'm just sure he isn't with Vanessa or I'll skin that lady alive." She muttered to herself while moving towards the door.She climbed down the stairs to the sitting room, but couldn't find a single soul in the building. Every corner of the house was so quiet.A gasp escaped her throat. "He left to work without letting me know huh? No! Xavier can't just do that.." she moved to the kitchen and disclosed the refrigerator.Her eyes caught a meal filled in an aluminum dip plate, and she grabbed it out.Not again, but she will do it again."Tracy will prepare t
"You just decided not to eat right? So you can prove to me how strong you are even when you're starved…" Vanessa contemplated.Chloe jumped on her body while grinning. "Ma'am Lilian ate our lunch and didn't prepare another one. She insisted that Tracy would do that or we would rather starve…""And Tracy didn't prepare another huh?" Vanessa asked, running her fingers in her hair.She nodded and smiled. "Yes, she didn't and we starved."Vanessa kept mute over the issue, she doesn't want to say a word again about Lilian in order not to raise a quarrel again.But she wondered. She wondered how the lady would have the heart to starve children that occupy her.Gosh! Maybe she forgets one thing, that a day will come when she will have hers and the child will be treated just like she's doing to the innocent children.And then, one thing she must have forgotten. That the children occupied her in the building. If they want her to leave, she must vanish from their home even if Xavier wants her t
"Lilian…" Xavier called out while in the corridor. He pushed the door open to get her asleep on the bed.He twitched towards her and tapped her awake. She narrowed her eyes, staring at him like he was a stranger to her."What's wrong Xavier? You just woke me up while I'm deep asleep." She uttered reluctantly while wiping her face.Xavier gave her an annoying look, his glares alone would jail her up at the moment."You starved my children again, Lilian. Must we always quarrel about one issue each time?" He yelled.She got seated on the bed still staring at him. He knew that Xavier would roar at her once he was back, and this time he might not take it easy with her.Then, she needs to spare herself this shit. She needs to relieve himself from his queries."Let's talk about this first, Xavier. You left to work without letting me know huh?" She asked him.He heaved a big sigh. If only Lilian knows how he feels within him, he won't throw such an annoying question."Lillian, you must be ins
Just, as usual, Lilian was under the roof alone, but the only difference is that she didn't bother to take the kid's lunch to eat.When she felt the hunger in her, she searched Xavier's bed drawer and took some cash from the envelope she saw, and then left to a nearby eatery to get something for herself, not bothering Xavier's reaction once he was back.She sat on the sofa in the sitting room after gobbling on the meal she got, her eyes affixed to the television.Within minutes, she fell asleep and she didn't notice when the kids were back from school.Tracy twitched into the kitchen first, just to make sure their lunch is still untouched.Thanks to heaven. She didn't touch the food and talked more about emptying it. She pulled out from the refrigerator before leaving upstairs to pull off her clothes.When he was done taking a quick shower, she stepped back into the kitchen and microwaved the food, after which she served it in the dining room.Chloe was the happiest to see their lunch
"Lilian, you did what?" He questioned her. Their eyes widened revealing how angry he felt.She couldn't say a word. Her eyes only studied the humans in the sitting room. That's just shit.She was unaware that Xavier would be back so early. Uhmmm! He never let them know of being back so early, and it's high time he returned by the time."I've done my best just to make sure you treat this child like yours, but all to no avail." He bit his lips, shutting his eyes closed. "Tell me, Lilian, what is it that I haven't done for you?"Lilian twisted her lips, she glared at Vanessa and then at the children. She rubbed her hair with her left palm and then released a loud hiss within them.Xavier watched her climb upstairs without giving a single answer to any of his questions. He turned to see his children all moody."Did she hurt?" He asked no one in particular.Ben nodded. "She did."Xavier clutched his palms, he swallowed deeply just to let go of every annoying feeling within him. Biting his
"This request is so polite… I should prepare his meal and get it to his office." She thought, circling her lips. She felt baffled at the moment, not knowing what to give as an answer.Xavier stood patiently waiting for her response, he had known the hunger won't spare him once he leaves the conference meeting back to his company.He doesn't feel like getting a meal from the eatery, he prefers to get a different taste for the day."What if Lilian finds out that the meal is for her fiance and then I'm taking it to his office once I'm done." She bit her upper lip. "But I can't keep the young man starving throughout the day, since his fiance doesn't care at all."She heaved a big sigh. "Isn't it better to get a meal from the eatery or resort? At least to save you the time I'll waste."Xavier shook his head expressing how difficult it is to accede to her idea."I want to taste a different meal today, not from the eatery again." He responded vividly.She had no other choice than to give in
After Xavier was done with his meal, he watched Vanessa pack the plates up and got them wrapped back again.He relaxed on his chair staring at the calm lady as she was in a hurry to leave. It's been a long time since he ate such a delicious meal like the one he took.Anyways, Tracy is trying her best to make the meals delicious and they are too, but it can never be compared with that of Vanessa.He can't say anything about Lilian, because since they met he hasn't had a meal prepared by her. She keeps giving one excuse or the other each time he demands to eat her meal.Not even her presence in his house pushed Lilian to the kitchen, she had insisted on not preparing a meal since Tracy can do that.This is one of the reasons he rejected her meal, he wants a meal prepared by Vanessa not her. If she minds seeing him taste her meal, then she has to do that for his children too, not because of Vanessa's presence."I'm about to leave, Mr. Xavier." Vanessa's voice drew him out of his thoughts
