Of course everybody would turn to look. The person at the door was the newly announced heir od the DeVille empire. A man as handsome as he is, dressed immaculately well, groomed to perfection and had a very distinct voice. Women, girls and even some men squealed as he made his way into the supermarket. Kraig however, had only one thing in his focus, he walked past the line and heades to meet Wynn who was standing on the other side. "Wynn," he called again. This wasn't a grand gesture, neither was it alike to some romantic scene in movies, but Wynn's heart juat continued to flutter as if he was begging her to marry him. As if he had caome on a stallion and a sword to save her from yhe dragon. Or maybe it was because he had been on her mind for days on end. He had been dancing, running, skipping through her thoughts. From the morning she wakes, to the evening she lays her hwas sown to rest and even in her dreams. Looking at him, right now, Wynn somehow felt very lucky. This bea
Carolene took in a deep breath. It was as if all she needed to hear were those words from Kraig. She didn't need any further explanation. He didn't even bother tonask her how she had found out about that but instead went straight to the truth. The truth that she could not change even if she wanted to. Carolene didn't say anything else, she walked to the door and just held it open for him. Kraig scoffed and equally walked out of her room. But when he got to the door, he stopped; "let's not get married anymore. Since you already know what's in my heart, wouldn't it be improper to get married?" Carolene slammed the door, having no regard whether the door hit him or not. Well, there was only one thing she could think about: Wesley was dead. Wow! Seeing that Kraig had taken to try to speak with Carolene, Jade decided to continue with her new found plan and turned to the staircase, but before she could climb, Kyle held her back. "What the hell do you want from me?" She furrowed h
Fabio was loudly slurping from the Chinese takeouts he ordered. He had spent the whole day in his car and although it wasn't dark out yet, he didn't plan to leave. His car was still parked across the street in front of Juan's company. There was a camera sitting on the passenger seat along with the other wraps of takeouts he had ordered. There was also a pair of binoculars sitting there. Though he was eating, his head was turned towards Juan's company as he watched every single person go in and out. Every face that showed up at that company held a place in his camera, but he continued to watch for any new faces. Like Ramos. When Ramos showed up, he made sure that he got the face captured, though it was a hard fit, seeng that the vehicle Ramos had drove there in was a very suspecting van which had been taller than him. Fabio wasn't really pleased with the pictures he took, but he planned on taking more. Luckily for him, the second Ramos had alighted from the van, it sped off.
Juan paced around his office over and over again. He couldn't stop thinking about what Ramos said. He was greatly unsettled, there were a lot of things that could go wrong. For one, he was told of that detective who arrested his father, detective Fabio, was it? The man was on his tail, said to be good at what he does. Said to be the best in his department and knows exactly how to do his job. If it wss before, he wouldn't hsve had anything to worry about, but now, he did. He had a lot to worry about seeing as now he was guilty of what he was accused of. It was quite funny, yesterday he was innocent and today he has become guilty. He wondered what his father woukd think about it. But wasn't it all for a good cause? No. Of course his father wouldn't buy into that. He had a reputation of being a honest business man, but surely there was no way that even the biggest company did not have some ties to the illegal world. It was impossible. He had so much to lose if he refused to do
Though Fabio was already driving away, Kraig still stood there just watching. He was thinking about what Fabio had just said. To be precise, the question he had been asked: why was he doing this? He felt that if he didnt guve Fabio an answer soon, he might ask again. And then aks again and ask maybe for the last tine before he cuts whatever deal they had made. He was a cop afterall, finding out about the things Kraig himself would dind out was a very small thing you do. So why was he doing this? He couldn't lie, from how his heart turned when he saw Wynn in that car with Juan, he knew this need was birthed from jealousy. And also, one xan throw in the fact that Juan had never been particularly nice to him. He always tries to make fun of him, to degrade him. To ridicule him, make him look so fucking small. And then, aren't business owners supposed t terminate their competition? That was no doubt what he was turning out to be: his competition. And if he were to find out anything
After cominh back from the hospital, Carolene's very rare face was finally seen during breakfast, jade couldn't stop herself from sneaking glances at her. It amused her seeing that she could still hold her head high when she knew for a certain that she was not getting married to Kraig. It was a very shameless act to Jade. "So, now that's they're not getting married, whats the need to stay in the house?" Carolene froze. She had been bringing a spoon full of oatmeal to hr mouth, but hearing from jade made her pause. She dropped her spoon and stared deadly into jade's eyes. "She's still pregnant with my baby, jsnt that reason enough for her to stay here?" Kraig asked, obviously displeased about what jade had said. "And moreover, the person that doesn't have a reason staying here is you. Your husband is dead now, isn't jt your cue yet?" Kyle shot at her, "and isn't your house ready yet?" This was not how jade had rhought thw conversation would turn. She felt attacked with those wor
Kraig leans into the leather seat of his car bringing about a sound of contact. He was holding a large unopened envelope, the sunlight poured into hjs car, shedding light precisely only on the envelope, as if knowing that at the moment, it was the most important thing. He frowned at how bright the sun was and how he was expected to open this file when hjs family was complete. It contained the DNA test results. This woukd be able to tell him if Wesley that died had been his real family or not. He was fucking curios, even running out of the office when he got the call, disregarding the meeting he had with his staff. He sighed out loudly before looking around the parking lot, he only browsed with his eyes before he drove away. Straight to his house. He informed them when he received a call from the hospital snd also did the same thing when the envelope was in his hands. As he drove through the gate, all he exoected to see was his grandfather, the second Wesley and maybe Jade. It
Daniel and Christian had been invited to the DeVille's house for breakfast. They had been quite surprised when the invite came to them through a message from Fabio. Daniel was very reluctant, having intimate relationships with a family under investigation was a no go for him. He didn't want to be clouded by his emotions other than logical facts. And damn, that family was filled with good looking people. From the women and even to the men. And his very bisexual self cannot deal with such. Maybe that was the real reason he was avoiding that family. On the other hand, his partner and best friends were stoked to be invited to breakfast. They were anticipating the whole deal and even got themselves nice outfits for the very simple occasion. Daniel felt they were obviously doing too much. "Why do you think the suddenly invited us?" Daniel asked from the driver's seat as he started the car. Christian was beside him on the passenger seat and Fabio was at the backseat. They were glued
