Two hours later, Liliana and her family arrived at another city. They didn't waste any time and headed to their aimed place, since the party was already about to commence. The Car pulled right in front of a tall Mansion, exuding an aristocratic vibe, and they got out of the car. Sandra hooked her right arm with Dane, and they both strolled into the mansion right in front of them, taking their steps carefully. The same goes for Liliana. Even though, she got a deadly unpleasant glare from her mother, she ignored her and went into the mansion, holding Nichola intimately. **** The birthday party was already close to commencing and almost all the invited guests, who were mostly from the second class rated families in another city, were present. The mansion was decorated nicely, with intricate and luxurious, screaming of elegance and uniqueness. It gave out a whimsical air, full of glow. The main character of the day, Clara, who happened to be Sandra's sister, with he
Clara scowled, glaring at Liliana, and she took a two steps towards her, but she was instantly stopped by Nichola. Nichola's eyes were icy and expressionless as the dead sea, his lips thin as they moved, warning Clara sternly. " Don't cross the lane when it comes to my wife." " And who the hell are you?" Clara glanced coldly at Nichola and scoffed in disgust. " Who told you to talk ? You are not even befitting to stay close to me, or even open your mouth wide and utter anything to me." Her eyes flickered when she realized what Nichola said but found it puzzling. Liliana, a wife? When did that happen? Is she married? Nichola didn't even respond to her. He took hold of Liliana's hand and just like Dane, they walked past from Clara, trying to avoid her trouble. Clara didn't also say anything and went back to what she was doing previously. But this wasn't over yet. *** Steven called one of his servants and ordered for a sumptuous lunch to be made and designed
"I will like to use this medium to express how grateful I am, and how much I am excited to show my fiance. Honestly, I can say I am lucky to have someone like Jerry, who is ready to do anything for me, love and also prove himself worthy for me. Not only that, he is ready to spend so much money for me, and I can't even amount how much he has spend for me. This is really a big thing for me, and I appreciate him so much." She warbled non stop, grinning, but her eyes were directed to a particular person.Liliana didn't notice anything unusual, but Sandra immediately did, and her face darkened. She didn't think twice before slamming the glass of wine on her hands down and scoffed, irritatedly! " What are you trying to do, sister. . Are you trying to rub salt on our wounds?! What are your intentions?!" The guests all quickly turned to Sandra. Some of them frowned at her, while some just gazed at her with confusion, etching on their faces. This also finally caught the attention
She turned to Liliana and lifted her brows. " Is there something we should know as family?" " No! You don't have to know anything and don't talk about my husband like that!" Liliana snapped, a muscle in her jaws twitched, and she stared sternly at Emma. " Or else what?" Emma looked down at Liliana, her nose crinkling, and she sneered. " Don't think too much of yourself in this family. You mean nothing. Nothing at all, just like how your so called husband is the most useless person in your city or otherwise populary known as the country pumpkin." She smirked smugly, knowing how her words would easily pull Liliana down like always. " Well, that's something!" Liliana retorted immediately, in a furious manner, her nostrils flaring, and she lowered her eyes coldly.....** At the Wightmans mansion. Collins told Steven to have his seat, the moment they got to the study. Steven frowned again, but nontheless, he planted his butt on one of the executive chairs in the
Damn! He was truly doomed to the core! Collins ignored him and laughed slowly and mercilessly. " You are not finished yet. This is just the beginning." Steven just stared at him in terror....*** At the party. Before the tension between Emma and Liliana rose to a nth degree, Clara stepped forward and turned towards Nichola. "You can see how much of a bad luck that you are." She addressed him and snorted in disgust. " To prove if you are worthy or not, let me ask you. Do you have any gift prepared for me or not?" She demanded. Nichola turned to Clara and shook his head. " I don't have any gifts pre......."'" I said it! Yes, he is useless! Do you all see it now? Can you all witness how much of a waste he is?! This stinky destitute man here, is the so called husband of my beautiful sister, and it seems they are so much in love with each other, but they can't even see the truth in each other. How funny and ironic?"Emma didn't allow Nichola to finish his answer and
Without warning, Sandra who was inwardly seething, ignored this and faced Nichola. Pah! " You are a curse to this family! Don't come back with us and leave this family now! I don't want to see you ever again!" She declared on a strong ground, glowering at Nichola with fierce eyes, that were shooting flames! Nichola stepped back, not rubbing his cheek, and he looked straight, deeply into Sandra's eyes. " You think I am a curse to this family?" Sandra jerked her head backward and laughed dryly. " Did you just say I think...?" She asked, her jaws tightening! " No! Imbecile! I don't think you are a curse, you are indeed a curse, and I won't allow you to inflict your curse on this family! Enough of you and your uselessness! I can't take you anymore. I don't care whatever would happen, but you are leaving today, and I am getting my daughter a better husband and father for the unborn child! You don't fit to be a father and a husband!" Liliana couldn't believe her ears. She shoo
Anna snapped her brows together and immediately answered, " STEVEN? no! I don't like him! I can't love a man like him." " Are you sure?" Collins probed even more, maintaining eye contact with his daughter as if he wanted to see through her. " You can confess to me now. Have you fallen for him?" Anna's eyes dilated, withdrawing her gaze from her grandfather, Collins. She fiddled with her fingertips and parted her lips. In the next second, she closed her lips and sighed. " Grandpa, although I like him, but I don't love him. No matter how hard I try to, I just can't. Maybe because of the way he treats me and that. I just can't, and I know he doesn't deserve my love." She explained gently, rubbing her forehead. Collins's eyes narrowed, and he unpursed his lips. In that moment, he seemed to believe what Anna said and didn't ask anything more. " If that's the case, then whatever I do to him, know that he deserves it, and that's none of your concern. All I want you is to give you
The moment Nichola left, Liliana suddenly felt empty and exhaled helplessly. Due to the sadness in her, she failed to notice where she was and just stared blankly.....The chef looked up at Liliana and felt sorry her....Unexpectedly, a spoon dropped down, the sound of it echoing across the walls of the dining room, and it instantly startled Liliana....Liliana raised her head to the sound of the spoon dropping, and this was when she finally realized the kind of environment she was in..Her eyes contracted rapidly, her jaws slacking down, and she widened her eyes...The chef noticed this but couldn't comprehend Liliana's reaction. " Ma'am, are you okay?" She asked with a face brimming with concern..Liliana was absentmindedly thrown into her world. She stood up silently, ignoring the chef, and her gaze swept across the whole dinning room, tilting her head to have a view of the living room. Where is this? Am I in heaven?Her mind played on different thoughts, not knowing whic
