Alice pretended to be asleep when she heard her door slowly creak open and heaved a sigh of relief when Catherine walked in with a perturbed look on her face.
‘Is everything okay??'.She asked and Catherine gulped hard.
‘I uhhhh....I uhhh....I think you should.....i think you should come outside someone wants to see you'.
The quiver in her voice was enough proof to Alice that something was definitely wrong—she was tired—Landon was out of her life already and now there's another problem in her life to deal with.
She reluctantly got out of the bed and went down the stairs only to find Stacey at the foot of it with her body shaking vigorously like she had the fever.
‘Stacey??'.She called softly and Stacey flinched sharply as she turned around.
‘Wh...what is...'
’You have to help me,he's
A few minutes later Alice wakes up after Lucas Isplashed a little bit of water on her face, disheveled,still in denial of the truth revealed to minutes earlier,angry at how naive she had grown to be and afraid of what was to become.A little part of her still wanted to doubt Stacey's accusations towards her step-sister but it was all coming to place now—the bursts of anger,the coldness passing between the both of them,the huge amounts of money missing from the company's account that she didn't tell anyone else about except Kayla.It was all coming to place now.How did Kayla know she was doubting Landon about the whole secret admirer issue when she didn't even say anything??.‘Are you okay?'.Catherine asked as Alice rubbed a sore part of her neck in frustration.‘Y...yeah..uhhh...where... where is Stacey?'.Alice responded as she glanced around the room only to find Stac
TWO MONTHS LATERIt was a tough battle and since it was a long time the case of Madison O'Brien's murder was opened,the court battle was fierce and Luther's lawyer was one of the best people at his job in the country.However, Stacey's testimony pushed the investigators to look more into the case and they found more than enough evidence to put him behind bars for a long time.Other women who were victims of his abuse began to speak up and this led to another further investigation,his numerous clubs and hotels were just business cover-ups for his underground drug scale business where he dealt with cocaine.He was given a 25-year prison sentence and the rest of the O'Brien family were more than happy to see their son put behind bars when they heard about his crimes.Alice knew he was an addict and an abuser but she never really expected her ex-boyfriend, who she almos
Lucas frowned deeply as Catherine forced him out of the car even though he just wanted to sleep,the weather was burning hot and they both received a message from Alice saying it was urgent.He shut the car door and kept on grumbling under his breath as Catherine opened her door with a key card only for them to meet Landon in the living room.‘What the f—'.‘Guess who's getting married......for the second time'.Alice said excitedly as she exposed the beautiful ring with a huge glistening diamond on it.Catherine shrieked for joy and launched herself at Landon who was lucky enough to catch her before she fell to the ground.She apologized about the Christmas dinner ordeal and he forgave her in a heartbeat.The doorbell rang and the rest of the family came in shortly,they also received the emergency message but seeing Landon paved way for the obvious c
Ep 1BEFORE THE DIVORCE....Alice Montero sighed deeply as she closed her journal,slipped her pen into her faded jeans pocket and headed out for the door.Eyes conered and lips murmured as she walked towards her car which wasn't knew to her since her engagement to Landon Mikaelson was finally leaked.She made a little snort as she tried igniting the car's engine which was proving stubborn and when it wouldn't make an effort she got out.‘F**k it!'.A sound of irritation escaped her lips as she grabbed a pack of cigarettes and took one out of the box.She was pretty sure the next headlines on the gossip blogs would be about how she was unfit to be Landon's future wife cause of her addiction to smoking.But she wasn't really addicted,she thought.She smoked only when she was frustrated and ever since she agreed to being Landon Mikaelson's wife frustration had been her c
Ep 2Beaming eyes filled with awe and admiration focused on the bride who walked into the church with her arm linked with her father's as they both walked to the aisle.Landon smiled at this bride not because he loved her but because she looked more beautiful than he pictured her to be.‘She is so beautiful'.Lucas,his immediate younger brother marveled at the sight of his sister in-law.He would've married Alice if having the opportunity given the chance that he has always loved her right from the start.His brother was always the lucky one in the family.‘Let's hope she makes a good wife more than she makes a beautiful bride'.Landon muttered under his breath with his smile dissapeared and Lucas sighed deeply.A happy married life??.He wasn't so sure about that.‘You look nice'.Landon complimented Alice as they locked hands even th
Ep 3‘Good morning Madam'.The house keeper,Mrs Snow woke Alice up in a very soft and calm tone that was oddly soothing.‘Good morning Mrs....‘Snow'.‘Oh yeah right good morning Mrs Snow, where's your boss?'.Alice asked glancing around the bedroom.‘He's off to Limerick and soon your new personal assistant would be here to brief you up about work but first you have to eat breakfast'.Mrs Snow replied with a warm smile on her face which was endearing to Alice.She's the one person who makes her feel welcome in the house at least. °°°°°°°°°°°°°The helicopter landed very successfully on the helipad and Landon came out abruptly,and walked over to the car.The media crew took few pictures of him of which he didn't mind at all even though he was known all around.
Ep 4.The next morning Alice walked into her newly furnished office and frowned just looking at the rug with her name woven on it.‘Good morning Mrs Alice my name is...'The clumsy nineteen year old intern and personal assistant rushed in and Alice's brows perked up.‘Yikes,cool it down girl'.‘Y...Yeah it's just that you're..you're legendary..I...I can't believe I'm standing in front of Landon Mikaelson's wife'.‘Uhhh first I'm not legendary,and secondly I'm a normal person'.Alice chuckled and took the coffee from the overly excited blonde.‘So what can I do for you Mrs Alice? ohhh I forgot to introduce myself.My name is Cassandra but my friends call me Cassy but you can also call me Cassandra if you want...I..I like being called Cassy anyway not that you care or anything'.The now introduced Cassandra rambled on leaving a bemused expression on her boss's face.Was s
THREE MONTHS LATERAlice and Landon did their best to avoid each other despite working in the same building,sleeping on the same bed and living in the same house.She tried her best to make the marriage work as much as possible but he clearly didn't want it as much as she wanted.She tried cooking dinner.She helped him clear his busy schedule by doing all the work so they could spend time together but something would come up and he would leave again.It became so bad that even she got tired and also decided not to make an effort and just ignore him the same way he was ignoring her.‘So what's up with you and my brother?'.Catherine asked as she walked into Alice's office with a box of chocolate cookies.‘Hey Cathy I didn't know you were coming over'.Alice smiled and Catherine sat down at he other side of the table.‘Yeah I miss
