#NICOLAS COMPANY... 12pm#Behind the large table in the office, Nicolas was quite busy as he flip through the files on the table.There was a particular file he was looking for, but he was finding it difficult to concentrate because his brain was clouded with the thoughts of Scarlet. The event that had happened at the mall that day as she blatantly rejected him, completely kicking him out of her life. To be honest, it was not entirely her fault because any other woman in the world could have behaved the way she did. But at least, she’d have been given a chance to explain himself... “Fuck, where is this file!” Nicolas angrily slammed the file on the table after the got all worked up. Abruptly, his phone was ringing on the table and he reluctantly picked up the call when he saw that it was the devil’s daughter calling. It was Sally. “What do you want?” Nicolas growled roughly as immediately he placed the phone on his ear. “Oh chill, my baby boy. Trust me, I mean no harm this tim
#SCARLET... APARTMENT# After an overwrought day, Scarlet arrived home and met Dolly in the living room as she was watching a TV show. It was already 2 pm and it was Friday, it was obvious that the kids are back from school. Like another day, Dolly would be happy to welcome her back but she intently ignore her and Scarlet knew the reason why. ‘If only she knew what occurred in the restaurant earlier, fuck.” Scarlet groaned mentally as she sits on the couch opposite Dolly. “Are you avoiding me?” Scarlet nervously questioned Dolly after a few minutes of silence, she hated it when her best friend is mad with her. “I am not,” Dolly plainly answered but with a stern written on her face and Scarlet exhaled heavily. “Mummy!” The voice of Natasha was heard upstairs as she giggle, scampered down the stairs, and went to embrace her mother. “My baby,” Scarlet forced a chuckle as she peeks her cheeks. “How was school today?” “It was fine, mommy,” Natasha answered. “Where is Taylo
#NICOLAS~ MANSION# It has been two days since the occurrence at the restaurant, and Nicolas was still baffled and contemplating. Why did Scarlet defend him against Harry if she had broken ties with him?Does she still love him? Nicolas found himself at the pool beside his house as he prepare to dive in, he was putting on a blue swimming trunk that made him look sexier and his revealing abs were alluring. Some of the maids standing some feet away as they awaited his order, drooled helplessly at their boss but they made sure it was not noticeable or else they’d be fired by him. Diving into the pool, Nicolas sink deeper as he held his breath under the water. He was a very good swimmer so staying under the pool for too long was no cause for alarm. “Sir, your best friend is here,” One of the maids disclosed to Nicolas as she carefully went closer to the pool edge. Hearing that, Nicolas swims up, his captivating and irresistible muscular shape resulting in the maid standing nearb
After Scarlet was abandoned by the men thinking she could possibly be dead, a few minutes later, a white SUV came to a stop. A man and his wife stepped out of their car, merely examining them one could apparently tell that they were a couple. First, the woman rushed over to the driver's space of the car and she saw Scarlet inside, bleeding from her head. It was a gruesome sight. “Honey, I could see a lady inside the car and she looks badly injured,” The woman called out to her husband and he reached out to her. “I don't think this is a good idea, Lucy.” The man who was her husband said as he stood behind her.He was reluctant to help because he doesn't want any trouble. “Hey, John, Jesus said we should always help our neighbor, let us be good samaritans by helping this lady out, please.” Lucy persuaded her husband until finally, her husband gave in. It was not an easy task as John broke down the car door and with the assistance of his wife, they were able to pull Scarlet out, a
#THE CITY ~ HOSPITAL# A week passed away after Scarlet regained from her consciousness, she was still in the hospital but she has not been able to utter a word. The doctor had said that it was because of the shock she had realized during the mishap that occurred to her. Since Scarlet's kids were not found with her and they were nowhere to be seen, Mrs. Brown strictly asked the high authorities to comb every inch of the city for her grandchildren. Although, no one knew she was the one who took the action since Scarlet had wanted her relationship with the Browns family to be in secret. Meanwhile, Dolly has been spending most of her time in the hospital, wishing Scarlet a quick recovery and crying for her kids who were still lost. Lucy and John also have been checking up on Scarlet and that goes the same for Harry. On the hand, Ford's foster sister is still admitted to the hospital so he uses the opportunity to visit Scarlet’s ward just to check up on her. However, Dolly never a
#THE CITY ~ HOSPITAL# Scarlet was slowly recovering but she was still admitted to the hospital, she had refused to talk to anyone until her kids were found. Presently, Scarlet’s face was expressionless and stern as she quietly sits on the hospital bed, wearing the patient uniform with her head still bandaged. She has refused to talk, eat, or have a good sleep as dark circles were visible around her eyes. It was morning, and Harry, Sam, and Dolly had come to see her as they tried their best in cheering her up but it was to no avail. “Scar, you have to eat something, huh?” Harry told her as he handed her the food flask but a glare from Scarlet made him pull back with the food. “Starving yourself won't do anything, the cops are already digging through the city, searching for the whereabouts of the kids. Do you want to die before they get here? How do you want to feel if they learn that their mother is dead because she refuse to eat when they were away?!” Dolly shouted at Scarlet o
#THE CITY ~HOSPITAL# Every inch of the hospital is in an uproar as they searched around for Scarlet, Dolly was the first to note she was not back for over an hour now. She told Harry and Sam so they contacted hospital security and they all swore they didn't see her leaving her. “If you guys don't find my woman, I swear I will tear down this hospital!” Harry thirsted, and everyone trembled in apprehension as the search continued. “But where could she have been? Dolly, have you checked the restrooms?” Sam asked his girlfriend. “I have, babe,” Dolly answered as tears threaten to fall down her eyes, and Sam immediately hugged her before she could break down. The hospital was turned upside down as the search party continue for a few hours, yet Scarlet was never found. Suddenly, an idea crept into Dolly and she pulled away from her boyfriend. “I have an idea, what about we check the hospital surveillance,” she suggested. “I think that is a better idea,” Harry said and Dolly nearly
#SCARLET ~ APARTMENT# The next day, Scarlet was discharged from the hospital and Harry drove her and Dolly home. Not to forget, she had not forgotten about Lucy and John who had saved her life. They had exchanged numbers and promised to hang out together some other time. Getting home, Harry parked his car in the parking lot and Scarlet was the first to step out as she head to the house. Harry unlocked the car boot and Dolly was able to grab the necessary items they bought before they both walked toward the house. When they moved into the living room, they met Scarlet sitting alone on the couch with her face buried in her palms. “Hey, are you crying again?” Harry says as he sits beside her on the couch with his hands caressing her back. “My kids, my kids.” Scarlet broke into tears, her raw emotions failing as she freely let Harry hugs her himself. Dolly exhaled sadly as she slouched tiredly on the couch opposite Scarlet. To be honest, she likewise misses the kids so muc
