BURN FOR LOLA 057 - Home Coming
It was already past 5 p.m. and Ava watched with a content smile on her face as the extended members of the Sanchez family started to arrive one after the other. As the mistress of the house, she was dressed in the finest outfit and adorned with the most befitting accessories. With her thirty-year-old appearance, it was hard to believe that Ava Sanchez was a woman in her mid-fifties. “There you are Ava, It’s so nice to see you again after so long!.” Aunt Lucy, Grandfather Sanchez’s younger sister exclaimed as she sighted Ava. Peter, her husband was right behind her and he also gave Ava a quick hug after his wife.“It’s also nice seeing you, Aunt Lucy. You keep looking younger by the years.” Ava teased making the old lady blush uncontrollably. “You would never stop teasing me,” she complained making Ava and Uncle Peter laugh. “No I won’t Aunt, I’m glad you guys could make it over with such short notice,” Ava said as she signaled for Mrs. Dorothy to lead the old couple inside. Soon, th

“Who is that girl?.” they asked. But how could Ava provide the answer to a question she also wanted to ask? At this point, only Noah could explain his actions so they waited for the duo to walk up to them.Just then, Grandfather Sanchez who had been waiting for Noah to arrive with his granddaughter-in-law walked out of his study room excitedly with some elders behind him.Noah who was still holding on to Lola’s hand was unfazed about the attention they drew. They walked past his mother and the curious relatives, not bothering to stop until they reached where the old man stood.“Grandfather, meet Lola, your granddaughter-in-law,” Noah said as he introduced Lola to the old patriarch. The crystal chandeliers above were giving out bright white lights as they shone on every face with surprised expressions.“Noah got married? How is this possible?.”“Are the rumors of him being gay all untrue?.” Everyone present had similar questions in mind but they didn’t dare to voice it out loud and c

Exiting the garden, Lola walked beside Noah towards the dining area. “Here they come.” Grandfather Sanchez who was sitting at the head of the table said as he gestured for Lola to come and sit at his right-hand side and so Noah had to follow suit as well. Since they were now married, they had to sit beside each other.Ava, who had followed behind them bitterly from the garden wished to retire back to her room but she dared not to or she would receive an earful of scolding from the old patriarch for abandoning her guests and her duties. Grandfather Sanchez led everyone to toast to the couple and to give them their blessings.Because he was overjoyed, Grandfather Sanchez ordered for his specially preserved wine to be served and then, he tripled the salary of the household staff for the month.The servants who were already earning a good amount of money from working in a large family such as the Sanchez’s were more than excited and grateful and wished for such celebrations to happen ev

The personal maid assigned to Lola was about her age and she communicated with her politely. When they got to the room that had been arranged for her, the maid slid an access card over the door’s keyframe which clicked open and granted them access to the room.“Everything in here has been arranged earlier by Mrs. Dorothy ma’am, your luggage had also been unpacked and arranged by me but if you need anything else, all you need to do is to press the button close to the bed stand and I’ll be here to attend to you in a jiffy.” The maid who had identified herself as Hannah said with a blush as she bowed and after dropping off the access card, she hurried away as if she was being chased before Lola could even let a word out.Lola wondered why the maid was in a hurry but shrugged and turned to walk into the bedroom only to be stunned by the sight before her. The place she thought would be only a bedroom was more like an apartment on its own. She had walked straight into a living room instead
BURN FOR LOLA 061 - The Tea Room
Lola stared at the large spread of food laid out on the table which was prepared by the Sanchez family’s chefs and she wondered if anyone else had also missed breakfast like she did or if wasting food was just a norm in this family.She was alone with Hannah and had yet to meet any of her new family members including Noah. She settled down on a seat and immediately one of the chefs walked over with a notepad and a pen in his hand. “Good day, My Lady.” The French chef greeted. “I’m Chef Armel. I’ll be here to record whatever dishes you find to your liking and what dishes you would like us to refrain from serving you. Though I reckon you would find most of the dishes here to your liking.” he continued with a smile.Lola was flattered as she tried a serving of each food while the chef kept taking down notes. The food was indeed delicious and while she was on yet another little serving of food, she noticed Hannah bow in greeting along with the chef in the opposite direction.She gazed ove

The tea room went completely silent as Lola walked in. The three women including her mother-in-law looked up at her without saying a word and Lola wondered if she was intruding on their conversation by joining them.“Miss Lola?” Mr Henry, the family butler called from behind before Lola could take one more step further into the room. “Yes?.” Lola replied as she turned to face the middle-aged man. “The Elder Master has asked that you join him in his study.” Mr Henry said politely as his gaze swept through the tea room. His brows furrowed slightly on seeing the two guests with the mistress of the house. Ava frowned on hearing that he was there to take Lola away. “We have guests who are here specifically to visit Lola. Whatever it is. Can it not wait until later when they leave?.” She asked impatiently.“I’m sorry but the guests would have to wait, the elder master says it’s urgent.” Mr Henry insisted with an apologetic smile. Without waiting for any further words of protest from Ava h
BURN FOR LOLA 063 - His Sweet Little Wife
The clubhouse was bubbly as always. A young woman stood at a considerable distance away from the entrance of the club not sure if she should take another step forward or run back home. She watched as a flashy car drove past her and came to a stop right in front of the club. Like the other VIPs, the occupant of the car was given a free pass into the club. One of the bouncers at the entrance noticed her standing at a spot and tapped the other bouncer close by.Noticing this, the girl knew that she no longer had the choice of backing out, she had been sighted, and leaving without reporting to the devil would only raise suspicions, suspicions that she did not need.Just as one of the bouncers made his way towards her, she forced her feet to move forward, meeting him halfway.“Are you being followed?.” He asked hurriedly as he looked around. She shook her head in the negative. No one knew she was there nor was anyone aware that she had been frequenting the club.“Then hurry in.. don’t kee
