Shelby felt a little suffocated with the way her best friend was holding her so tight. "I think you are really gonna kill me with the way you kept holding me like i am gonna flee," Paige quickly let go of her friend who was still frowning. Seeing Paige's face messed up, her face turned cool and she smiled at her. "Why are you crying so much, you little baby. See, Davis isn't even crying the way you are crying. I am okay, as you can see," "I can see that bestie and I am so happy right now," Shelby smirked at her friend's remark. She then tried to sit up, and immediately Paige helped her. "Ow!" She winced a little, touching her head, which was bandaged. Paige stared at Shelby in panic. "What's wrong?" ."I am having quite a headache. I can feel the hitting of those men again. Oh!" She moaned out again. "Then I will go call the doctor to come check you up," Paige wanted to leave but was stopped by her friend who sudden pulled her. "What's wrong?" "You also have a bandag
"I don't have a girlfriend and I am not thinking of having one anytime sooner," Aaron replied, staring at his food, obviously avoiding his father's gaze, which made Mr Lee really furious, which made him stomp his hands on the table angrily. "What did you just say, you son of a bitch!!" He cursed and immediately, his wife held his hand tenderly."Honey, words," Mr Lee cooled slowly, and smiled at his wife, then turned toward his arrogant son and frowned. "If you do not find a way to get a woman for yourself, I will make sure to find one for you and I will definitely make sure you get married to her," he threatened his son who doesn't seem to care. Aaron rolled his eyes subconscious at his father. He thinks the old man blurts a lot. Not to his brother, but to him. He is always picking on him a lot. "Do you understand, Aaron, and Ryan, we are going to arrange a marriage for you soon, be prepared to get married to Nancy,"Ryan stood up on his feet and walked away, tucking his hands i
"I miss my dad a lot. I miss that old man a lot," she said, with tears still flowing from her eyes uncontrollably. Ryan furrowed his eyes in confusion. Her dad? Where is he now? "Where is he?" "He is in heaven now," she said softly, as her mind drifted to the past. Her father was always with her. He had protected her and took her in, away from her mother. Now something like this had happened and she has no one to reply to. Ryan sat beside her, patting her head softly. "But you are not alone. You have Shelby with you. You also have me here," he said softly and she sniffs loudly. Ryan looked around, feeling a bit sad about the burnt house. He seem to love this place also just like Paige. This place held so many memories for him, and now, it is burnt down to ashes all because of her mother.Her mother....she would love to see that woman one day and probably teach her a lesson. How dare she do something like this to her own daughter? He felt pity for the woman beside him. She doesn'
"Paige, where have you been?" Maloney asked, staring at Paige curiously. She really wanted to know where Paige had been for this while. Madame fumed furiously, that she had no choice but to suspend Paige from the restaurant. If she wants to come to the restaurant, it must be as a customer, not a worker. Or else she is going to kill her. "I have been out for a while Maloney. What about Madame. I am afraid she wouldn't let me work at her restaurant anymore," Paige told Maloney worriedly and immediately Maloney nods her head in agreement. She knows madame well and what she can do. She definitely won't allow Paige work at her place. "Yes Paige. Madame had really cursed so many waiters because of you. She said she doesn't want to see you as a worker at her restaurant, but as a customer," Paige stared at Ryan, who still had a mask and his hat intact on his face and head. Maloney didn't think of the person behind Paige as an important person. She just want to report this information to th
Shelby trusts Ryan s little bit now. Ever since that man had saved Paige from the clutches of that woman which she calls her mother, she had already started trusting the man gradually and she knows if the time comes, she might trust him fully. Everyone knows he is a rich person and also a boss of his own company, which is a grand company, but no one knows him of being a psychopath, who loves taking people into custody, just like he did to Paige. But she had already started believing him and trusting him, believing he is the only one who could save her best friend from bad people.But she still doesn't get if he loves her or not. Or he is just being obsessive. "So when will he come get you?" She questioned curiously. "I think this evening, or perhaps tomorrow," she guessed. *** After some hours had passed *Ryan walked into Shelby's home, in his disguise as usual. Paige was in the living room with Davis, while Shelby was in her room, taking a nap. "Paige?" He called the girl who
Aaron continued to drink uncontrollably, but still refused to get drunk. While sitting on the chair, his eyes were glued on the door. He still won't stop expecting her. He misses Shelby. But he never knew the woman situation, thinking she had abandoned him just like the way Charlotte did. "All women are the same," he muttered to himself. Shelby had been trying him for a long time and he had been avoiding her, paying her up, because of his weak trust in women. And as days passes, he never payed her up anymore, he continued staying with her, thinking she was serious with him. For a while, he couldn't believe he liked a single mother whose husband abandoned. At least that's what she told him. Aaron sighed softly, now thinking maybe her husband came back home. Maybe that was the reason she never came to him. For a while, a bolt of jealously struck him. He wanted to know who that animal was, and how dare he?! He went away from her life and came back? A least that's what he can believe.
"is this really my room?" She muttered to herself, still looking around. She went out of the room, looked around the corridor, before walking walking in again. "There are just two rooms in here. Or I mistakenly entered his room. That must be it," she nods her head in realization.She walked out of the room, heading towards the other room. But she still doubts it. She was sure the other room was Ryan's. But why would he prepare a room as lavish as that room. Isn't it too much? She will just be working as his personal maid, not his personal girlfriend. That man is a really weird man. She opened the room, not knowing he was already settled in. He had no shirt on him and his hands were on his trousers which has a loosed belt which was sagging. Seems like he just came here. He raises up his head to see the girl who widened her eyes in shock. Ryan's lips lifted, showing his mischievous smirk. "What are you doing in my room?!" He asked, faking a cold voice. "I...i...I don't think the o
"I should...?" She nervously flickered her eyes, pushing him aback angrily. "What are you doing, you..."she wanted to curse, bit held back her tongue, pointing directly at his face. "You can curse me if you want but you aren't leaving here without helping me with my bath. You just said something shamelessly without filtering the words and you think you can escape that easily, Paige?" He asked, smirking at the girl. Paige moved to the back, trying to leave the room and embarrassing situation she puts herself into. Turning around, she suddenly felt a pull, which almost got her slipping off her feet, but was saved by the arms that took her closer to himself. "Ugh!" She groaned softly. He was holding her arms, while her hands were on his chest. Ryan didn't realize when his back moved the button, that made the water shower on the both of them. Paige lifts up her head, to see the water dropping slowly on them both. "Hey, what are you doing trying to escape from me?" She heard his hoar
