Estella looked at her husband, Lucius, with a concerned expression and asked, "Are you ready to face him?" Lucius nodded, took a deep breath, and said, "Yes, I'm ready." Lucius slowly turned around after putting his clothes on, and his face fell with sadness. "I must face him since he is still part of my existence. He has become part of Nicole's and my life, and I cannot forget about him," he answered Estella with a heavy heart. Estella approached her husband to adjust the collar of his clothes. "I hope you can both forgive each other and start anew." Lucius smiled. "I truly wish that to be the case. I'm desiring to be free of the heaviness I carry in my chest, as well as the anger he carries in his heart." Estella pressed her lips against Lucius's, delighting in the sensation of their mouths coming together for a few seconds before they pulled apart. Estella smiled, and Lucius replied with an affectionate expression. Both of them smile at one another with a hint of affection. T
PROLOGUE "Lu-Lucius!" Estella called the young man's name while trying to hold his hand. Now has she seen the young man again, because the young man did nothing but avoid and hide from her. She was going crazy, wondering why the young man acted this way. She wants to know why; she feels he loves her, but she can't figure out why the young man treats her like this. Estella became desperate and started to shout his name more and more. She wanted to know what had happened. Why was he pushing her away? She was willing to do anything to find out why he behaved this way, even if it meant she had to do something extreme. She couldn't bear the thought of losing him, but she was starting to realize she wouldn't get the answers she sought. He's been avoiding her for almost a week, and it hurts. She wants to talk to him and find out what's wrong, but every time she calls, he doesn't answer. She can't help but feel like he's pushing her away, and she doesn't understand why. She's been trying
"Please take a seat," Lucius said, glancing down at the paper he was holding."Thank you," Estella replied as she sat down.He didn't look at her when he asked, "Why do you want to be an actress?" Estella thinks he is a snob and has a hostile personality, despite his handsome appearance.She sat properly before responding to the question. "Simple answer. I'd like to help my family get through poverty. I want to be known for my own talents, and capabilities and I want to make a lot of money. I'd like to get rich immediately." She answered confidently. The young man gazed at her for the first time, giving her a serious look. Estella had already seen Lucius' face at that point. His attractiveness stems from his wide eyes and lengthy eyelashes in a single setting. That appears to be flawless. He's God's personal favorite because he appeared to be a perfect human being.She couldn't take her gaze away from Lucius' attractiveness. He's tall, and he's clearly a gym enthusiast. He had a body
LUCIUS was doing his favorite exercise, barbell weightlifting when his phone rang. Lucius sighed and checked his phone. It was his manager calling, which made him mad. Before answering the phone, he took a few moments to contemplate. In his mind, his manager must respect him while he rests, but Lucius thinks that his manager doesn't know that the word "respect" exists.'Lucius, hurry up and turn on your television to catch up on the latest news! ' His boss screamed, panicked, which irritates him even more.'Great! Fucking fantastic! 'This is what I mean when I say I'm relaxing,' he said quietly to himself in annoyance.Lucius groaned and hung up his phone.He grumbled as he walked out of his gym. His gym, which is located within his condo unit, is one of his favorite places. He walked to the gym's nearby small bar and poured Brandy into a glass.Lucius sat on his plush sofa, holding the glass. He turned on his flat-screen TV and switched to the live news station.“Yes, Lucius Hudson i
"Are you serious?" Estella quickly recognized his furious tone, but she knew he was merely suppressing his emotions for her own sake. She is unable to talk and must maintain her stance. Forever. She glanced aside and said, "I'm sorry, but I have to go home." She gently moved the man away from her before she stepped away from the kitchen. She attempted to stand up straight, but she failed. She winced in discomfort. Her wound is still not healing well. She is aware of the discomfort caused by her wound. "Do you think I'll simply let you go? You wrecked my life." Estella sighed and raised her head upwards. "Mr. Hudson, I told you that you can do anything to me, hurt me if you don't want to send me away. I want you to punish me for the things I've done!" The young man laughed out loud and moved closer to her. "Are you sure? Are you kidding me? Who is the source of your evilness? You appear to be too afraid to say anything." She took a swallow. She attempted to keep her voice steady
When Estella woke up, she sat up as she remembered two strangers peering at her in Lucius' room. The man even came in to talk to her till he closed the door of the room, allowing her to breathe comfortably, but Estella fell asleep by accident. She was hungry, and her skin was greasy. She hadn't taken a bath since arriving at Lucius' condo unit. It's nearly midnight, and it's dark outside the big windows of his room. She and Lucius had been together for nearly a day. Her thigh hurt again, making it difficult for her to move. She staggered out of the room, grimacing at the searing agony that was developing in her thigh with each step of her feet. She can't move her hip, she can't walk normally, she's in pain, and it's all her fault. Nobody else is to blame. She just has herself to blame for her mistakes. She saw Lucius's head inclined as she moved her feet in the kitchen. The alcoholic drink is on the table opposite it, and there is a cake in the middle that appears to be his food wh
Estella exited the bathroom wearing a black knee-length t-shirt even though it was intended for men. She brushed her hair while looking in the mirror to examine her face. She dropped off the comb when she was finished, then hurriedly went down. Look around as if someone were hiding—there, here, left, right. Her meal had been interrupted earlier when she smelled her own horrible smell, so she grinned when she couldn't see the young man and hurried to the kitchen. "It tastes good! Good goodness, the refrigerator has plenty of food." Estella said as she ate the menudo from the refrigerator, her mouth full. Estella was eating when the doorbell rang outside. Her heart pounded because she thought the police were coming. She was afraid the young man would let her go. What if... She is experiencing so many unfavorable thoughts. "Estella, go inside the room." She was startled when she heard the young man's voice. "Faster, Estella! Bring what you eat." "O-okay.." She dashed into the bedro
Estella awoke, feeling glad, and, for unknown reasons, smiled as she got out of bed. As long as she is in a good mood and feels nothing but pleasure. Is it because of the young man that he doesn't compel her to speak the truth? Especially since he is protecting her? She keeps a smile on her lips until she takes a shower. "Estella?" The voice came from outside the bedroom door, and it seemed to be Lucius calling her. She quickly wrapped a towel around her body before going out and went straight to the door to let the young man in. "Ah, good morning. What-" "Get dressed and go downstairs," said the young man, who didn't know where to look because only a towel was draped over the woman's body and half of her chest or cleavage peeked out. The young woman quickly followed the young man. She got dressed, and the clothes she was wearing were a young man's t-shirt that reached her knees. After that, she went down without a comb, and in her haste, she almost slipped. Luckily, she was clut
