"...In this life and the next and all the lives that could come after, Would you do me the honor of becoming my wife?."• • •"This is so beautiful." Maria swooned as she lifted her left hand to appreciate her engagement ring once more. It was a dazzling 24-carat diamond ring with a delicate square cut. "I should have a picture of this taken and sent to Lola.""It doesn't compare with your beauty, my darling," Richard said and clapped twice.Suddenly, a slow romantic music started to play and the rest of the lights came on at once to reveal the musicians in the background. It was then that Maria fully realized where they had been standing all along. Her eyes widened as she did so, and then they brimmed up with tears and unspoken feelings. They were on the stage of Rosewood's old theatre hall. It was on this very stage that She had met Richard many years ago. Their agencies had been participating in the same competition and she and Richard, well.. they had been the worst of enemies,

Infinity Jewels Headquarters."CEO Sanchez?." Noah's newly hired secretary called out.Noah frowned as he looked up from his laptop to stare at the secretary who was still standing after previously delivering a message to him."Yes? Is there a problem?." He asked impatiently, hating the fact that he was being distracted from his work. He still had lots of contracts agreements and documents to cross-check and sign. He had checked up on Lola briefly in the afternoon and had promised to call back later. Yet, it was evening already and he wasn't halfway done with work, despite working his ass off since the early hours of the morning."The directors from Haven companies called last minute for a quick dinner meeting by 8 pm, today...""I won't be available. Kindly pass the message across to Tyler to represent in my stead.""But sir.." The secretary protested. "They were pretty specific about you being the..""Goddamn it, Paul. Cancel the meeting and set up another one that fits both our sch
BURN FOR LOLA 167 - For all the right reasons
Lola took her time getting ready. Not because she was slow, no. But because she was nervous for all the right reasons. As she patted down the soft fabric of the cream dress, she had chosen to put on for the day, her hands couldn't stop shaking. Even her necklace had required a lot of effort to fit into it's hook. It was obvious from the very first day that she had set foot in the Sanchez's ancestral mansion that Ava Sanchez loathed her from the depth of her being, and she had simply made peace with that fact by avoiding the older woman entirely. But, with Ava's sudden change of heart and attitude towards her, Lola wasn't so sure anymore what exactly it was that could be going through her mother-in-law's mind. Why was Ava Sanchez suddenly so nice to her?These thoughts accompanied Lola through the hallways of her father's ridiculously grand mansion, past the greeting maids and the busy servants, and into the family's waiting room which turned out to be empty, to Lola's surprise."Oh,

"My beliefs ruined my family, Lola. It's too late for me to change that, but I believe you can do better with yours, at least much better than I did with mine."Hearing what the older woman who had been nothing less of a bitch to her in the last few months had to say, Lola was at a loss for a while.The silence lingered and the two women only communicated with their eyes. All Lola could see in Ava’s eyes was regret and pain. Strangely, Lola realized that she wanted to console this woman who was her mother-in-law regardless of her mistreatment of her in the past.Slowly, she reached out for her hand and let out a calm smile. "It wasn't a good experience but I understand, mother. I'm glad you are willing to accept me."At the word "Mother", Ava's eyes turned dewy with tears and she stared at Lola with a new sense of appreciation. Lola Coker is a good woman and she had made the right choice by accepting her for her son. "Thank you, Lola.""Besides..." Lola continued with her hand sti
BURN FOR LOLA 169 - His Secret Lover
The study room was bright as the rays of the early morning sunshine filtered into the spacious room from the windows.A low tune played in the background, giving Grandfather Sanchez who sat with a pipe in hand a calm feeling in his nerves as he received the morning’s paper from a servant who left as soon as his job was done. Mr. Henry looked up at his friend and employer from the phone in his hand and smiled. The old man was obviously in a good mood.However, that pleasant mood soon disappeared the instant Grandfather Sanchez laid his eyes on the front page of the newspaper.“Senior Master…” Mr Henry called out with widened eyes, he stared at the phone in his hand intensely and approached Grandfather Sanchez. “We have a problem.” He stuttered. “… the young master..”The old man raised a palm and the butler swallowed down his words. Grandfather Sanchez’s face was gloomy as he read through the bold headlines on the paper.REVEALED!. THE SECRET LOVER OF INFINITY’S NOAH SANCHEZ!!!.”Mr.
BURN FOR LOLA 170 - Hello Aria
“Jacqueline Meyer is your cousin!.” Lola half-whispered and half-yelled on seeing the woman who had just walked into the large drawing room of the Sanchez mansion. They had driven over directly to the Sanchez’s ancestral mansion to meet Ava’s cousin who also happened to be on her way there. “Thought you mentioned that her name was Gold..” Lola whispered again.“Yes, she is. Gold or Jacqueline, any is fine.” Ava responded with a smile and got up from her seat to melt into Jacqueline’s waiting embrace. Lola and Maria watched the two women from aside with both surprise and fascination in their eyes. Lola wasn’t the type to fan up to celebrities or designers in this case as she had no much interest in the fashion industry, but she could recall coming across one of Jacqueline Meyer’s wedding designs in a bridal magazine some years back and it had left a deep impression on her mind. The woman was ridiculously talented.She observed Jacqueline’s one-colored theme outfit from a distance a

“Hello Aria. How’ve you been?.”~“I’m good.” Lola heaved a sigh of relief on hearing Aria’s reply. “Good.” She said.The line went silent once more, no one hung up, no one spoke, and each of the women waited to hear what the other would say next.“Why are you calling?.” Aria finally asked, breaking the silence.Lola sighed once more and her hold on the phone tightened as she stared out of her bedroom’s window. Aria might have revealed her identity to the media and confessed that she had feelings for her, but no matter what it was that had happened between them, she could not help but still feel a sense of attachment to the only woman who had stood by her and grown up with her since they were only six years old. They were both girls who had paved their way through life together and that at least, had to mean something. “I’m officially getting married this weekend, Aria… To Noah.” Lola started.“Oh… congrats, then..” Aria replied with an indifferent tone.“I know a lot has happened be

“Do you mind telling me where exactly we are going to Xena? We have a party to attend in exactly three hours..”“Ssshh.” Xena hushed as the chauffeur came around and opened the car’s door to let them out of the vehicle. “You are ruining the fun, miss bride-to-be.” She joked.Lola stepped out after Xena and looked around the familiar place. They were at the same mall they had come to purchase Noah’s birthday gifts some months back. Why were they here again? “Come on, let's go,” Xena said and hooked her left arm with Lola’s right one and led her directly into the mall. The two women passed by many stores including the one they had been to the last time they came with Aria, but Lola did not bother asking any more questions this time, since Xena appeared to know exactly where they were headed.Their destination turned out to be a lingerie store at the far end of the hallway and the store’s manager who seemed to know Xena well enough ushered them in with a smile on her face.“It's so good
