A maid came forward and collected Owen's briefcase while greeting him as soon as he walked into the huge mansion whistling softly.
While there in the hallway, he couldn't help but watched the maid go as her mini skirt swayed sideways, then shook his head and frowned as he couldn't believe he was just looking at a maid lustfully.
He walked into the main sitting room and was very relieved to see both parents there.
He didn't even notice the worried looks on their face as he rushed forward to complain about what had happened today.
He greeted them and quickly said,“ Dad Whitney bashed my car. She has destroyed it so badly that I'll have to pay more money to repair it than how much I bought it.”
“That daughter of mine is becoming a rogue nowadays. Why is she just causing trouble everywhere?” his father asked frowning slightly. Owen was very relieved to see his reaction.
“That's not the most important thing right now. I can't find my
Whitney frowned and thought,' I must have been blind before. What cute boy? He is just a little mean boy. He is as arrogant as his father.'“Papa I need answers right now!!,” he shouted with a cold expression. She also noticed that the cold expression on his face is similar to that of his father.Maverick chuckled again while she continue to glare at him.He can't even scold his son for being rude when he already has a degree of rudeness. Maverick looked at the expression on her face knowing that she was thinking of something bad about him.He grinned and thought to himself, 'I don't care. She doesn't think of anything good about me anyway.' He even high-fives his son to show that he's proud of what he just said.“Dad!! Who is this fatty?” Jimmy asked again and Maverick's grinned wider than before. This is his son. He even said the correct nickname.“Jimmy, she is...” Maverick trailed off realizing that he doesn't even know her name. Shit! He didn't ask for her name. He looked at Whi
Later that night Whitney lay on the queen-size bed fiddling with the engagement ring on her finger.She sighed thinking of everything that had happened.Maverick and Jimmy had been helpful to her once today.Though their attitude towards her wasn't the best, they helped her forget the sad incidents that happened to her.Now that she's alone, the memories came rushing back. She wiped off her tears and wondered out loud, “Why did they do this to me?” From a young age even when Gia did something wrong, she would try to cover up for her. Always been supportive of her and didn't mind getting all the blame.She remembered some years back when they were still teenagers, how Owen was seriously sick, and how everyone was scared that he wouldn't make it. They all gave up hope on him but she didn't. She stayed with the nurses for three days without sleeping to take care of him when no one wanted to. It was on the third day when her body system could no longer take the strain that she collapsed.
Well, should we say fortunately or unfortunately, that it was at this moment that Maverick passed by and noticed Whitney in the kitchen trying to cook.'She has the guts to enter my kitchen like it's hers,' he thought and slowly steered his wheelchair towards the kitchen.He saw all the scenarios of her trying to reach the spices jar and decided to not say anything and just watch her as she struggled. But when he saw her falling, he didn't know why but he felt himself rushing towards her and she ended up falling on his lap.He groaned out from the impact of her fall on his lap while she screamed out of fear.Slowly, She opened her eyes and saw him directly in her line of view. She was both surprised and relieved that she did not fall on the floor.“Don't you know you have weight? Get up from my lap right now. This isn't all those reality shows where the male leads kiss the female leads after catching them in their arms. I'm not kissing you,” he uttered harshly.Whitney frowned and swa
Whitney gulped suddenly feeling nervous. She wondered what he is planning to do and watched him as he removed a stray strand of hair blocking her view and then moved his lips to brush against hers lightly.She was momentarily stunned as she felt the warm and light sensation on her lips. NOt able to comprehend what just happened, she got lost in thoughts and licked her lips unconsciously.She blushed in embarrassment at her action as she was brought out of her reverie by his sudden laughter.“You should see your face right now. It's completely pale from just a tiny little peck. I thought you were screaming just now that you don't want to kiss me but your reaction right now is saying the opposite,” he taunts her.Whitney glared at him frowning before she cleaned her lips. “I don't care about that stupid peck. So now let me go,” she mumbled grumpily.“I'm not holding you,” he smiled cheekily. Whitney looked down and saw that he was not holding her anymore. This jerk! He dares play her li
Lena looked at Whitney suspiciously and she hurriedly shook her head sideways.“Don't listen to him. He doesn't know what he's saying. Why would I hit the vase on his head?” she said pinching Maverick slightly.Maverick winced in pain and glared at her. Lena looked at the two of them confused about why they are making such a fuss over nothing.I don't care what you do to him. If you want to hit him on the head with the vase, then do it. I think you need to reset brother's brain,” Lena answered making her laugh out loud.Maverick became slightly annoyed and was about to say something when Tia suddenly started to cry and since Lena was the closest to the baby, she quickly went over and carried the baby.As she carried Tia, her wails increased despite how Lena walked around trying to pacify the baby.Not able to take it anymore, Whitney walked over to her seeing that all her efforts to pacify the baby are not working.Immediately she carried her, Tia stopped crying to the surprise of Mav
Maverick looked at her carefully and noticed that her face looks red and a little bit swelled.Why? Did she cry? Who made her cry? He turned his wheelchair around and left.Lena walked toward her and was about to tap her when the baby whined loudly bringing Sharon out of her trance state. She cleaned her face immediately and collected the baby from her.Her body shook slightly as she hugged the baby close, “What's wrong... What's... What's wrong with... With Tia? Her body is unusually warm,” she stuttered planting tiny kisses on Tia's face.Lena looked at her knowing something was wrong.Why was she stuttering? “It's just because she has crying ever since you left. I'll check if there is medicine for it.” Then she left the sitting room. As soon as she left, Whitney looked down and noticed Tia looking at her curiously. She smiled and kissed her again.“Honey, did you miss me that much?” she asked the baby who could only giggle not understanding what she just said.“Do you think if I a
She was completely enveloped in his warm embrace, with her face pressed against his smooth muscled chest. Staring at him, she couldn't help but admire him.He had a Mohican cut and scythe-shaped eyebrows. His Roman nose and half-dome cheekbones sat above an oaken jaw. His wrestler’s shoulders were part of his burly physique that she was tempted to touch and squeeze between her fingers.She was so lost in checking him out that she didn't notice he was already awake.Whereas, Maverick frowned at the sight of her red face.She's blushing? Why is she blushing?Then he looked down and noticed their sensual position.He rolled his eyes and immediately pushed her away from him a little.Momentarily shocked by his movement, she finally realized he was awake. “Why were you looking at me like that? Don't you know it's rude to stare at a hot, charming man like that,” he said grumpily.That succeded in wiping out the little admire she had for him and she glared at him before answering, "Who was
Gia frowned as soon as she saw the message. She read it over and over again.What's Owen trying to do? What did he see or hear that made him think like this?She looked at the box in her hand and frowned. She was just on her way to Karl's office when the message came in. She kept her phone and marched toward his office.She swore if it turned out to be true, she will murder him.The moment she barged into his office without knocking, she noticed he quickly cut whatever call he was on and looked nervously her way as he hurriedly hid his phone.She thought of the message she saw and thought, 'Is Karl hiding something from her? Is he seeing that bitch behind her back?'She dropped the box on his table angrily and went to where he was standing.He avoided staring back at her which made her silently panic at the thought that he was seeing that bitch again.“Babe... Why are you here? I already told you not to bring the food. You should stay at home and rest. You ain't in a condition to stre
