Lucas shook his head.How can he risk leaving her here all alone and going home to rest?As much as the security here is tight, anything can still happen! He can't trust any doctor or nurse with his Ciara."You don't have to worry about me Mum, I will come home tomorrow morning when her friend comes back." He said."Okay, how about we bring four bodyguards to guard her ward till tomorrow. You aren't well too remember? Or how about I stay with her?" Mena finally spoke up, because This incident right in front of her is overwhelming."I want to stay, it's time you all head back home. Besides I am in the hospital, if anything happens, I will easily be taken care of." Lucas said giving room for further argument.They all signed and made their way out. No one can force Lucas to do what he doesn't want to.They all know that!"Take care of yourself and her."~ Next MORNINGCiara's eyes snapped open weakly, she took a look at her surroundings with her still lying on the bed.A hospital?What'
Ciara began to recuperate."You don't say that Lorana, it's nothing like that." Ciara said defensively."You need to have seen how he cried when you were unconscious.""He paid the doctor three times his actual pay. He refused to step an inch away from you Ciara and when he looked at you.""I saw the affection in his eyes." Lorana rant to explain her point and that ended up making Ciara quiet… Her mind is blank at the moment, she doesn't know what to say. But why will Lucas do all that for her?They've never met before in her entire life so how!? Is that how he picks interest on strangers? And besides, even if she's from an average family, her family isn't rich enough for Lucas to pick interest in any of her sisters or even her.That moment, when the door opened and Lucas entered.Everywhere became quiet, even Lorana that was talking became mute immediately.This is Lucas! Only the aura around him commands power!"Hi." Lucas greeted to clear the awkwardness and Lorana sprang on her fe
Lucas was excited about this moment.Okay! She has to!At least seek his help on this. Without him, she can't take any step further."Uhmm... Sir." She finally stuttered out.Lucas turned to her and chuckled.He could see her struggling to speak only for her to utter a Sir."Call me Lucas, we are friends alright?" He said calmly. Only in front of this angel does he display himself.Ciara gulped down nothing before nodding her head slightly."Lucas, I was thinking if you can help me find any modelling agency in need of new models." Ciara said boldly, deep down.She's really scared. How is she gonna get used to this man? Lucas raised his head staring intently at her.Is it really what he's thinking? His heart did a happy dance as he gazed at her."Why? What did you need it for?" He asked, acting oblivious to what she meant."I am making a comeback into my modelling career." Ciara said with all the courage she gathered.It wasn't easy but she really did blurt those words out. She just ha
Ciara felt bewildered.She just disgraced her own self in front of who she's very timid when close to.What if he gets angry?"I... I uhmm. I am sorry, I was just too excited."She defended seeing that Lucas was just staring at her with no sign of expression.His face was blank and unreadable.Lucas shook his head feeling so amused by Ciara's character.Isn't she his shy guarCiara angel?"I understand perfectly, you don't have to apologise for everything Ciara, learn to live freely with me. You are someone I will never think of hurting and I will not find it funny seeing you hurt." He gave his long talks, all Ciara did was to nod her head before muttering a thank you.As much as she's now a changed person, Lucas is someone everyone will have to cower for.She has really heard a lot about him and that is enough to keep her conscious of whatever she does around him.But since he's never hurt her since she woke up to him at the hospital, she really needs to be free with him.Maybe Lucas
The Ronald Decision was firm!"Without going further into it because I am not in the place to explain that to you." Mrs. Ronald paused, giving her Son a look Ciara should understand."We won't force you into getting married to our son but it will make us really happy to have you as my daughter and daughter in law, we are asking you to marry our son.""No better person fits the position than you are please Ciara." Mrs. Ronald said convincingly while Ciara blinked her eyes innocently.Ciara's eyes met with Lucas's again and he gave her a pleading look.He's really stuck in this, a part of his heart is very happy for what his parents are doing but on the other hand, this isn't how he planned it.Lucas never planned on coercing Ciara into marrying him.He has always wanted it to be a pure love story but now?What if she refuses to marry him?"Take your time my dear, we won't force you." Mr. Ronald added.Ciara sat quietly with her face looking as neutral as ever.No one knows what she was
Sia Kept a straight prideful face."I am the best model in LBC Corporation remember, I won't let her stay here. I will destroy her career and send her away in shame." Sia rant and sat down with a loud thud."Get out." She gritted her teeth."Huh? You are asking me out of your office?" Damien asked with a shock expression. He didn't expect that."I said get the fuck out of my office and come up with something, a good idea that will throw Ciara out of this place before she takes all my positions"Sintia's head was held up high as her manager cheered her up. The proudness in her eyes could buy half of the world if not whole."A very good job Sintia, there's no one better than you." Her manager praises."I know right, I was born a model. You don't need to remind me of that." She replied arrogantly.Her manager shook her head as she's already used to Sintia's rudeness."I know you will do perfectly well than the model from LBC Corporation. I heard she's a fifth rated model."Louisa paused
The man looked at others as they spoke through their eyes. He smiled and grabbed the lady by the waist, ready to devour her innocent soul."It wouldn't be bad to have a taste of a beautiful lady like you. We were sent actually but we can let him go for you." He licked his lips lustfully staring down at her body.His mind drifted away from Lucas focusing all his attention on the lady.When the lady was sure that the man's whole mind was with her.She kicked him in the place were the sun doesn't shine and the gun came flying to her hand.How stupid!They all fell on their knees with their eyes widened. A woman just tricked them?How did this happen?Unknown to them, she was oblivious of how to use a gun but with the way she was perfectly holding it and pointing it at them, they all thought she would scatter their heads without thinking twice."Lie flat on the floor, if you make any move, I will pieces your head"She warned authoritatively.If they had known, they wouldn't have carried o
The few crowd began murmuring to each other as Ciara and Lia came nearer.Ciara walked into the the building with her head up high, she carried herself with grace.People must surely have something to say about but she doesn't care.She released a beautiful smile at the people she sees on her way."Good afternoon Mr. Gunn, I hope we are not late." Lia said to a middle aged man as they finally entered into the building.Mr. Gunn is the director. He has been in the industry for over fifteen years.He also wasn't left out from the gaping at the model before him."Not at all, the shoot is about to start." He replied turning to Ciara."Ciara Micheals." He called sharply, of course. He definitely remember her from three years ago.She was anything beyond good, her skills shone brightly among others.She left the industry and came back after three years?Oh well!He just hope that she's still capable, this shoot will cost a whole lot of money to the company.A lady shouldn't come and mess it
Seeing that they were not going to stop anytime soon, Mr. Brian went into the room hitting the door after asking one of the staff to get him a bucket of water... He knew Sia was a whore.He knew she could easily throw herself at anyone because she had done that to him.He did had her for her stupid reasons but this?This is a great insult to his agency.Did she forget the rules?Didn't she read the rulebook?Without giving it a second thought or thinking of how much the bed worth, Mr. Brian took a whole bucket of cold water and poured everything on them.Maybe that will make their eyes clear to see their surroundings closely.If Sia was so drunk yesterday, couldn't she have waited to get home before having sex?Sia felt a good quantity of cold water pour on her.She wiped her eyes in anger glancing at whoever did that to her but when she met pairs of eyes staring at her.The anger in her died down and it was replaced with surprise when she saw a man cuddled up with her in a sexual man
Ciara could feel Karma Dealing with her enemies."If anyone do, I will wipe him and his entire family out of this world. You are mine alone Ciara,no one will share you with me." He replied through gritted teeth and Ciara began laughing."Did you have to get angry? I was just kidding, can you come pick me up?" She asked."Right away, just stay right there. I will be there. Turn around Mr. Arthur." He said hanging up.Ciara chuckled at Lucas's possessive nature.She grabbed her bag and began walking outside."Hey Ciara, please wait up." Ciara turned around to see Sia smilling at her.She raised her eyebrows questionably.What is she up to?"Congrats Ciara." Sia said smiling excitedly at her with two glasses of juice in her handCiara nodded her head in response, if Sia is trying to be nice to her. Then she's up to something but what exactly?"Look Ciara, I know I gave you a bad impression on our first meeting. I behaved like a bitch and I am sorry I let my jealousy over crowd my sense o
That moment, Lia walked up to them."You came finally Ciara." She said sitting down beside her."I am not late, am I?" Ciara asked."Just a few minutes. You look so stunning Ciara, are you seeing the gazes on you?" Ciara turned around and truly, she found people staring at her.She didn't notice till now, well! That's their business."Its their eyes, they can do whatever they want with it." She replied monotonously.When Lia was about talking, the music died down and Mr. Brian's voice flew across the place."You are welcome everyone, thank you for taking out of your time to attend this party." He said grinning through his voice.Ciara's face went blank at the sight of the person seated right beside Mr. Brian.Her father! What is he doing here?They made an eye contact, Ciara could see him smirking at her.She knows his being here isn't going to be a good one. He must have plans before coming here.Ciara's face went back to a calm state looking so expressionless.If he thinks he can ev
She quickly texted Lia the address, dumped her phone on the bed and rushed into the bathroom.Ciara has a lot of people to drive her to the office or even take one of the cars herself.She's ready to let Lia in, she trusts her. Even if Ciara doesn't tell her, she will definitely find out that she's married to Lucas.She'd rather let her know.She will sure remember to smack Lucas if she sees him.Lia on the other hand blinked her eyes in disbelief staring at the message that just came into her phone.Huey City? Huey City! Ciara is living in Huey City!How? If Ciara is Sintia's sister, her father doesn't have that kind of money to have a house in Huey City. The whole of Mr. Micheal's money can't buy a sand in Huey City so how in god's name is Ciara living there?Ciara is not in good terms with her family either.That place is for the rich! The extremely rich people in City.Lia keeps discovering new things about Ciara.The last time Ciara said someone will pick her up, Lia saw her ente
"You will never change." Ciara whispered to herself but Lucas heard it."Only with you baby, I will never change anyways. Since you've gotten famous, a lot of things will change. I will assign bodyguards to protect you from the public anytime you want to go out without me."Ciara shook her head not buying what Lucas just said."That's not possible Lucas, I can do just fine on my own. I don't need guards or anything that will drag unnecessary attention to me, you know that Lucas."She quickly objected."I can't let any harm come to you, you know how much you mean to me Ciara. You are my oxygen."Lucas added playfully making Ciara laugh."Nothing will happen to me, stop being pessimistic." Ciara said."Fine but you promise me one thing, that you will put a call across to me if anything arises.""I promise." Ciara nodded her head."Good! Now are you ready?" Lucas smirked and hugged her from behind.Ciara's heart beat raced rapidly, their close proximity was giving her goosebumps."R... r
Ciara coughed lightly, Mr. and Mrs. Ronald are people she respect so much.She definitely can't say no to this. The decision have been made. There's nothing she can say."Uhmm, there's no problem Mum. We will get married in three days. Since it's just a simple wedding, it's just to exchange our vows and uhmm, we will have a grand wedding when I am ready." Ciara stated."Good, we will respect your decision dear. We will always be ready anytime you want the grand wedding, my husband and I will make it glamorous and memorable for you." Mrs. Ronald winked at her. Ciara bowed her head blushing.What more can she ask for? Her new family loves her so much without her knowing why.She already made her mind to make them and herself proud.Maybe that way, she can repay their kindness and love."Thank you Mum.""Are you sure you are okay with us having our wedding in three days? I can speak to my parents if you are not comfortable with it"Lucas said sitting beside Ciara on the bed."Yeah, I am
"Then who?" He asked clenching and unclenching his hand as he gritted his teeth.The thought of someone making Ciara sad is turning him into a mad person.No one has the right to make her sad.Not when she's under his watch."No one, I shared the stage with my sister. Seeing her opened my old scars, that was just it." Ciara said fidgeting with her fingers."Did you want me to get her blacklisted from the modelling industry as a whole?" Lucas asked.Ciara couldn't help but chuckle. She really can't imagine how devasted she will feel being thrown of of the industry."I would love to but not yet." She replied.Lucas pulled her into a hug unexpectedly."I am sorry I wasn't there for you."He whispered into her ear.2AM:Ciara let out a loud cry immediately the hot electric iron landed on her back.Her father kept it in a particular place on her back without removing it."D... Dad please, I am sorry. It's hurting please forgive me." She pleaded in tears.She couldn't move because she was t
