“Dad, I don’t understand what you are saying.” Victoria looked perplexed. James turned to her when he heard what she said. “I am the one you are finding it hard to understand. I made a decision and you have decided not to understand my reason.” James explained. Victoria was calm after listening to her father. She felt like he was trying to emotionally blackmail her, but he finally won. Judging by his health condition, she could tell he is not fine and it’s because of their absence in the house. Victoria turned to look at James. She felt bad because she had to go back on her words. She promised herself not to ever return to that house or else Leo is out. But now she has no other choice but to go back home. “It’s fine. You win.” Victoria informed him. At first, James was confused until he tried to understand what she was saying. He turned to look at her and from the look on his face, the excitement was obvious. “Do you mean you are coming back home?” Janes asked Victoria to confirm
“Mom, what’s grandfather talking about?” Heaven asked Victoria after hearing James ' words. A puzzled look appeared on her face. “I’ll talk to you about it when we get home.” Victoria gave a curt reply. She couldn’t even look at Heaven's face when she was talking. She didn't know how she was going to break the news of their current situation to her. Heaven noticed her acting like she was trying to avoid looking at her. She felt like whatever her mother is gonna tell her is something she wouldn't like. But she turned to the car window to look at those passing by. “I hope it’s not what I’m thinking.” she said to herself while thinking of her mother's suspicious actions. Victoria turned to look at Heaven and sighed. They might probably get into a huge argument when she breaks the news to her. Victoria sighed heavily again and looked away. Meanwhile, Leo couldn’t stop thinking about what Victoria just said. “Was she thinking right when she said that?” Leo asked himself while h
“What did she mean by that?” Victoria asked no one in particular before heading upstairs. “Heaven, you cunning brat. What are you trying to do?” she asked again while she was walking upstairs. Heaven got to her room and she looked around the room. She walked to her wardrobe and placed her hand on it. There was no single dust on it. “I missed my room.” she said aloud and laid on the bed. She brought out her phone and started taking pictures while she was laying on the bed. When she was done, she posted them and immediately, she started having likes as usual. She dropped the phone back on the bed and stood up when she heard a knock on her door. She went to get the door. It was one of the servants in the house. He dropped her luggage in the room and bowed before walking out of the room. When he left the room, she closed the door and moved the box towards her. She opened the box and looked tired already because there were so many clothes inside it that she didn’t know where to
“Why do I even need to live with him?” Heaven asked herself angrily because she feels like Leo isn’t a member of the family so there is no reason why he needs to remain in the house. She thought about telling her grandfather about it but she suddenly remembered how James always defended Leo. He will never listen to whatever anyone says about Leo. It somehow feels like jazz to Heaven because her grandfather practically listens to everything Leo says to him without trying to find out if it’s the truth or not. Even if she says something wrong that is actually correct about Leo to her grandfather, he will not listen to her. It looks more like he has adopted Leo to be the son he never had. “It’s sickening.” Heaven said to herself and fell on her bed. She heard a sound from her phone. She reluctantly stretched her hand to grab her phone and soon saw that it was a text message. She could suddenly hear her heart beat faster when she read the content of the message. She sat up on t
Leo just decided to ignore her and turned to his food. James was still in shock after hearing what Heaven just said to Leo. He finally looked away after staring at Heaven for a while. He felt he must have heard wrongly. Heaven looked away and lowered her head to start eating her food. She took a spoon from her plate when she noticed Leo was about to serve himself. “Let me help you do that.” Heaven quickly sat up and stretched to collect the spoon from him. Once again, Leo, Victoria and James were shocked by Heaven’s strange actions. Victoria dropped her spoon on her plate angrily when she noticed that Heaven was obviously trying to be nice to Leo. She glared at Heaven angrily. She knows how much the latter hates Leo so why is she being nice to him all of a sudden? “Was she pretending to hate him?," Victoria asked herself while she was watching her serve Leo with a very bright smile. Leo was left stunned. He couldn’t even protest against Heaven helping him. He just gave it
Leo wasn't convinced by her words. He felt like there is another reason why she was acting so nice to him. “She is so transparent.” he said to himself and laughed softly. He suddenly stopped laughing when he thought of a way to make the game more fun. “Why don’t I play along with her?," He smirked. He brought out his phone from his pocket and realized that his schedule is full tomorrow so he has to leave very early tomorrow morning. Leo stood up from the couch and walked to the bed. He wanted to sleep but he needed to take his shower before going to bed. He was feeling too lazy to even take his bath. After a while of hesitating, he finally decided to stand up from the bed and take his shower. While he was in the bathroom, he remembered Mandy. He remembered that he has a more serious thing to do than playing a game with Heaven. He wants Mandy and Scott to go through the same pain they made him go through when they took everything from him. They can't just keep on reaping o
“I mean it’ll make things worse.” Mandy told Scott quietly. The latter was still confused. He couldn't understand what Mandy was trying to tell him. “Explain. What are you tryna say?,” he requested with a very obvious, puzzled look on his face. “I mean those staff members know everything about the company. How are we going to get better staff that understand the company well enough if we send them away?,” Mandy explained carefully. But Scott was still confused. I've actually noticed that these two are actually dumb than I thought. I'd think what Mandy meant was that they couldn't dismiss the staff cause they already know too many secrets about me but guess it's this way... Scott couldn't think of any other good way to sort this company stuff than for them to throw those stupid staffs out of the company and get new employees or shall I say lackeys that know nothing about the company. But after he tried to understand what Mandy was saying to him, he realized that she was rig
Scott felt he was already going just being paranoid because no one from his company has the same signature as the one he saw. So why does he think he has seen the signature before? Why does it look so familiar? Mandy picked the two invitation cards and headed upstairs. The maid in the house came out and cleared the little debris they'd made in the sitting room. When Mandy got to the room, she saw Scott sitting on the bed. He looked like he was deep in thoughts. “What is he thinking about now?” Mandy asked herself and walked closer to him. She sat down beside him and he didn’t notice there was someone beside him. “Scott, are you okay?” Mandy asked him and dropped the invitation on the bed. Am I the only one that feels like she's said those words many times today? He turned to look at her and that’s when he realized there was someone sitting beside him. “I’m fine.” Scott answered and looked away. No matter what, he couldn’t stop himself from thinking about who has a signatur
