Emma slammed the door shut with pent-up frustrations after her Clara,Emma, and Dane had gone in."How could he?", Clara yelled, throwing down her bag on the couch.Dane heaved as he ran a hand through his hair and sucked in a breath."Just who does he think he is? How did he win?"Sandra was red in the face as she brooded upon all that had happened at the restaurant , most especially the arrival of Mia. "I wish I could slap off the silly smirk from his face. What made him so confident and who on earth was that woman who stood to support him?""She's probably an old acquaintance who had some illegal connections", Emma spat. "Or an illegitimate partner"Sandra continued, "He even had some nerve to talk back to me, after staying under my roof without paying an ounce of usefulness.""I can't believe he got away with it. That bastard will definitely be planning something evil for. He seems to have thought it all through. He was steps ahead of us""He still has to be stopped. We n
The picture was the document with his signature on it with the caption, 'Exposed! County bumkin out to ruin the divine healer by forging his signature'. Nichola tried to restrain his anger but his palms clenched hardly, a crack sound resonated as a result of his phone been crushed by his hands! He looked down at his crushed phone but there was no expression on his face. He ignored the phone and took the system out, then he checked the news again. He couldn't believe it, his eyes dimming rapidly. The news had gained attraction from almost all the netizens in the country and they started painting Nichola's face with a bad picture. " Oh my goddess! I can't believe this! Are people that desperate now, they can even do anything to the extent of forging and faking a signature just to give it as a birthday gift?! This is unbelievable!" " And not just a normal signature! The divine healer! This is too audacious! I can even feel my lips tensing! I wonder what the divine healer would do t
Nichola tapped his feet on the wood tiled ground, staring out of the window at the pouring rain."You sure you'd be able to leave today?", Mia asked calmly, sipping a cup of water and scrolling through her phone.Nichola barely spared her a glance and just kept staring hard at the intensifying downpour."You know, a proper thank you would be appreciated for my helping you stand against those pesty in-laws of yours"The rain that had started as a drizzle was quickly becoming a storm. Nichola wished it would just pass as soon as it had come so he would not have to be stuck here with Mia."Nichola," she called, resting a palm softly on his arm to draw his attention. "Why do you have to go through all this? Why do you not want what you deserve and keep chasing what doesn't deserve you?"Her arms moved slowly up his arm, causing him to stiffen in irritation. He grabbed her hand and pushed it away from him."Don't put your hands on me, Mia. I'm not exactly patient now, "She blew out
Nichola drove at a neckbreaking speed to the Rossi's mansion, where he knew Liliana could be.He came to a sharp halt just in front of the mansion and ran to the door. Before he could raise his hand to pound on the door as he intended, the door swung open to reveal a smirking Emma."We have an August visitor," she called loudly, still smirking at him standing at the door.Sandra rushed to the door and laughed upon seeing Nichola looking so desperate."Where is Liliana? I have to see her", he said in one breath, but Sandra snickered."I think you lost your way, son. I mean, what would you be doing in the house of the same people you said lacked brains? You had better go back to the he'll you're coming from because there is no room in the house for you, or in Liliana's heart either for you", she snapped and tried to slam the door shut but he held it with an arm."Ma'am, I'm here for my wife and I must see her", he said."Are you breaking into our home now? That only proves how much
Confused but clear about the command, Oliver nodded and went to work immediately. As Nichola trained his eyes on Oliver, a call came in through his phone.Mia. His face darkened dangerouslyThe phone continued to rang but Nichola failed to answer it. After a while, he stood up from where he was sitting, not bothering with the phone anymore. He strolled to the large window in his office and gently placed his hand on it, looking down at the very bustling city below him. He recalled in the note he read earlier about getting a message from an unknown someone. The message was about him hanging out with Mia. But how did that happened? Is there any other person after him?The frown on his face deepened and his jaws clenched, tensed on what Liliana might probably decide on. He knew he wouldn't be able to take any negative result from her. " Oliver!" Oliver instantly appeared at the presidential office and bowed respectfully. " Young master, you called for me?" Nichola turned
But the most surprising part for her was that, Nichola didn't tell her anything, knowing she was also at that restaurant too.Why did he keep it from her? Is he really not innocent as she has thought? Her mind keep buzzing of different thoughts, not knowing which one to take or discard.....Andrea was now fully focused on Liliana, anticipating her to say something like giving up on her husband, so she could finally have her way. Her heart raced, and she shifted even more beside Liliana, wanting to hold her.....It was at this process, Leonard knocked curtly but once, which startled everyone. They all turned to the door. Leonard walked in casually, full of grace, with his hands stuffed in his pocket. " Did I disturb your conversation?" His eyes trained to the people present in the living room, however, he failed to smile at anyone, knowing the current situation and the real cause of it. Sandra didn't believe who she was seeing and immediately stood up, astonished as she wid
Just as he stepped out of the private elevator, he unexpectedly bumped into someone he had least and never expected to see again........ Thup! Nichola lifted his head and scowled immediately! "' What are you doing here?" He coldly threw his question to the person with a hardened face. "Nichola", she shrieked in an excited voice, pretending to be astonished. "What a surprise to see you here?" Nichola only lowered his eye coldly, seeing through her acts instantly. "I've missed you, Nichola", she called softly from behind him. He stared at Oliver who quickly averted his gaze, and he turned to go get his car ready. "Lisa, I suppose you did not miss your way and mistakenly meet me here at my company", he said blankly, staring at her as her lips lifted a bit in a small smile. "Okay. Fine then. Nichola it's been so long", she purred, her revealing dress riding up higher and he ruined his brow in frustration. "Not long enough", he deadpanned and began to head out with large stride
An unknown lady, having her hands on the trigger of the gun which had killed the man, strode out towards them. She gave Nichola a nod and he stared at her, wondering who she was and what she was doing there."Watch out", she called and Nichola strike the attacking man with a heavy blow, causing him to fly feet away from him and silence permeated the air.Nichola straightened himself, stone faced and he glanced at all the men that were down.The strange lady ambled over to him and kept her gun behind her, crossing her arms against her chest. " I supposed you are alright, and I stopped that asshole before he could injure you." She started, staring casually at Nichola. Nichola spared her a glance, but there was no expression on his face. " Why are you here?" " Why am I here?" The lady jerked her head backward and repeated, pointing to herself before she tossed her hair to one side and looked away from Nichola. " A simple thank you is enough if you don't know what to say rathe
