CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY - FIVE

Frank could not stop talking about her unwavering absence at the mansion. He knew it even though she had tried hard to hide that very detail.

What he just didn't know was what was going on with her. Was she involved in something her father would not want her in originally or, was she seeing someone else with no one knowing.

Lesley grabbed her spoon from the table and dug into the snacks before her. She would rather pay attention to eating than listen to his words.

" I have been meaning to talk to you Les" he said.

" Stop calling me that" she complained. She didn't like it when anyone avoided calling her name in full all for the sake of not wanting to.

Could he just stick with Lesley and not Les. Les sounded ugly to her, it made her feel as though she were less of herself or something.

" Are you avoiding me?" Frank asked her out of the blues, much to her surprise after she had just completed her round of grumbling about how her name should he ca

Samantha could not feel any happier with everything going on that night. She was feeling very happy and was hoping that the moment would not end, it was not every day that she had the opportunity to get out of the house like this and go on dates with the one person she really likes." This ice cream here is really nice and cool, what do you think about it?" She asked Damien about the dessert that the waitress had come to drop for them after they had had their main course meal.

Gosh! I wish we could spend all of our days here' she thought sadly with a pouted lips.Judith had even sent a text, wanti

    CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY - SEVENLesley sat still on her chair and was planning to leave any moment now as she stared at the wristwatch on her hands. It was high time she left, judging from the time she had already spent in there. Frank's eyes were still boring over her and that didn't put her mind at ease, especially with the fact that they were now the only ones in the VVIP room. Their fathers had not returned, those two cunning old men who thought they were wise. She understood their plans even if they had not made it clear and obvious. Leaving both of them alone in the lounge so they could do what?Discuss or start to get used to themselves.Getting bored already, Lesley stood up abruptly from the seat that instant causing Frank to look at her direction.

Yes, I know…we are going to go home anyways…chill" she said to him. " I still haven't used the restroom remember?" She said to him as she took her purse from her laps and laid it on the table before them.They were finally done with the desserts, Samantha especially had taken a very considerable amount of time in getting the desserts down her throat that moment. She had made sure to take all of her time to relish the ice cream. It felt as though it should never finish.Her tongue kept asking for more but as everything in the world that has a begining has an end, so also will her taking of the enjoyable desserts come to some sort of cruel and unwanted end.

She had never asked for anybody to keep her company, she just wanted to stay on her own. To have her own alone time, why should he come to disrupt that for her.Agatha just stayed silent, she didn't know what word to say to him. It was obvious that she was walking on eggshells around him and it was all because of the situation that had occured some years back." I hope you are doing just good?" Gabriel asked her." I am" she answered him simply and moved a little further from his side. He was getting too close to her and she was not comfortable with that. " What would you want to have? What should I tell the servants to prepare for you?" Agatha asked him. She wanted anything that would take them away from the balcony to where every other person was." I didn't come here for food" he told her chuckling. " I'm not hungry Agatha" he added. So, what

Dad, that's what I wanted to let you know. I had to let you meet with my fiance" she said, looking at his face to read his expression. He had an expression of shock and surprise.She guessed that he must probably feel that way because he'd never thought of her doing something like that to him.After a brief seconds when she had revealed her purpose of calling the meeting out to him, Mr. Smith laughed for a while which got both Lesley and Damien surprised.They looked at each other wondering what made the older man laugh.

And, he had only caught a glimpse of Lesley's father's face in her mobile phone or in a magazine he found among her belongings some weeks back.So, he couldn't get a clear picture as to why his face looked familiar to the older man. It was not like he was a popular person or that he was a son of a rich magnate too who was popular." I don't know why you look familiar to me too." Lesley's father said, still looking straight into Damien's eyes. "I have never met you, neither would I have had the thought of having any business with you let alone think of squeezing a few minutes out of my schedule to have to seat before you now" Mr. Smith said in a hoarse voice which made it o
