"He did what?" Anna spun on her foot like a ballet, turning to face her friend Hazel with a look of disbelief in her eyes. She blinked at her, unable to believe the gist filling her ears.Hazel nodded her head softly, flipping the egg in the pan on the stove. Anna had come over this morning for breakfast, and her friend was spilling some irresistible tea already.Anna shook her head, her face housing a wide grin. "So you're telling me... Lucas Rossi was here in this house, and he saved you from an attack, rode you in his car, and even met your grandmother?" She walked over to Hazel, eyes it up like torches in some sort of second hand happiness and excitement over it all.Hazel scoffed, unable to understand why her friend seemed so excited about it all. She had asked this over and over again, and each time she affirmed, her friend would let out and excited squeal with she was unwilling to hear again. "For the fifth time, yes." She groaned out.Anna shook her head in disbelief once more

Luca stared up at Hazel. Her honey colored eyes held a great deal of surprise, but there was no trace of anger, so he felt his formerly tense nature dwindle slightly. He closed the magazine in his hands, placing it flat on the table. "What are you doing here?" Hazel questioned, brows still raised. She stared at him, his dark hair was slightly tousled and a certain kind of tiredness made his formerly bright blue eyes seem dull. She couldn't explain it, but there was a squeezing feeling in her chest as she continued to stare at him, almost like... Almost like she was happy to see him. She has found it difficult not to think of him ever since, but she had been determined to try, and now, he was seating right here before her, like she was in a trance, once again imagining meeting him.He cleared his throat lightly, turning his head away for a moment. "It's a restaurant." He shrugged.Her brows furrowed ad she glared at him. Hazel resisted a brewing urge to roll her eyes at this man. Th

When Anna was done curling, styling and packing her hair, she let Hazel look in the mirror. She had done a very light make up on her, only because she severally protested that it be so. And looking in the mirror, she did not regret that choice. "I look...""Stunning." Anna completed, smiling in satisfaction as she stared back at her in the mirror. Hazel smiled, a blush rising her cheeks. A small chuckle left her lips and she shook her head a little, as if she did not believe she could truly look this pretty. It almost looked like she wasn't just some common servant turned waitress in a restaurant.Anna placed her hand on her shoulders, rubbing them in reassurance. "You look stunning, Hazel."Hazel grinned, a blush tinting her formerly pale cheeks. "For once, I actually think I do."Anna threw her head back, blonde hair falling out of their messy bun as she laughed. "I am glad you do, now, let me get you into a pair of comfortable shoes."She walked over to an organizer full of sever

Hazel smiled weakly, lifting her fork. She stared at the food on the plate in front of her, it looked very delicious, she could even sense her mouth watering already, yet why did she feel a bit at a loss of appetite? "I work two shifts almost everyday, it's only natural I would be exhausted."She forced herself to dig into her plate, cautious to eat very carefully, cutting a piece of stick and sticking it into her mouth. "Why do you work two shifts?" Luca asked, his brows furrowed.Hazel shrugged, letting out a soft hum as she chewed her food carefully, savoring it's flavours. She almost smiled, she has never really eaten food this fancy before. "Because not everybody is privileged enough to be born wealthy in this lifetime Mr. Rossi."She almost sounded angry, bur she couldn't help it. She shook her head a little to remind herself to stay calm, Luca Rossi was not a direct cause of her problems.He nodded, he almost seemed sad, she did not like that look on his face. Like he pitied h

Panic, it coursed through Hazel's mind, making the hair of her skin stand on edge. Her heart skipped a beat multiple times in a row, she didn't even understand what was happening, her mind was going through several different possibilities, she was finding it hard to keep up with her own thoughts at this point. "Drive faster." She turned to Luca, her eyes almost blurry with tears. "I have to drive safely." He replied calmly.She shook her head. "No, drive faster or I am coming down and taking a cab."He breathed, understanding her fear. "Hazel, calm down... Everything is going to be fine."She sighed, sinking into the chair and turning to the window. He breathed, placing his hand on hers. "Please, stay calm. We are two minutes away from the hospital."Hazel jumped out of the car hurriedly as soon as it came to a stop in front of the hospital. She could not waste a second at all, her heart was beating very fast, she had even taken off her heels and held them in her hands. Luca walked

Marry me. It all sounded so strange, like one of those whispers carried by the wind, you know what you heard, but you are not sure you heard it because it sounds so unreal. "Huh?" She frowned, brows furrowed and forehead crinkled. She of course knew what she heard, but she had to be sure. "You are going to need a lot of money if you intend to go through with the surgery, before, during and even after the surgery will cost you a lot of money." Luca continued, expression solid as a wall. "And God knows you won't be able to take care of her working two shifts a day, you won't even afford the bills."It was the truth, she wouldn't even be able to find the time to care for her Grandma if she continued to work two shifts. At this point, even working five shifts a day will simply not provide enough money. But where was he going with this?"If you marry me Hazel, I would foot all the bills. Every single one of them, and you would never have to work two shifts again, you will have time to s

Luca RossiLuca walked into the office, hair tousled and restlessness slackening his eyes. He took a hold of his coat, ripping off his body and throwing it to a couch in the corner. Luke sat on the office chair with his feet on the table. He had an amused smirk on his face, watching his friend slowly begin to pace the room with his fingers on his jaw. "How did it go." He asked.Luca was quiet for a while. He continued to pace, he stopped for a moment. Turning to his friend with a worried expression. "She seemed.... Extremely skeptical. I do not think she would accept it."Luke let out a chuckle, rubbing his palms together. He stared at the wall for a while before shifting his eyes back to his troubled friend. "I doubt any peasant would say no to thirty million dollars Luca."Anger slowly seeped through Lucas' eyes. He sent a glare of daggers down his friend's direction. "Peasant? Don't you dare call her that Luke, ever." He seethed.Luke chuckled dryly. "Relax... I was only riling yo

"I have accepted your offer, I will marry you."Hazel stood firmly in front of Luca Rossi, unwavering, unblinking. She had made up her mind, and in two days instead of the agreed three. All he did was stare back at her in a bit of surprise, like he did not expect that she would agree. "For one year." She added. He stood from his seat slowly, adjusting the collar of his shirt as he walked up to her. She took a small step back as he approached, her breathing increasing a little.He stopped a foot away from her, she could smell his cologne, wafting through her nostrils and overpowering her senses. She nearly closed her eyes to savour it all..."Okay." He whispered, his voice deep and somewhat husky"we would be married in a week.""A week?!" She snapped out of her daze, eyes widening slightly. A week seemed too soon! What was the rush? "A week is too soon, what's the rush?"Luca exhaled, tucking his hands into his pockets. "It just has to be so. There would be an engagement party in a
