Mr Lawson's had no expression on his face, he had truly been biased by not asking to hear what happened from Vanessa. He jumped to conclusions and might have even pushed his biological daughter away from him. He stared at Khloe, he was the one who nurtured her into the woman she had become. How could he let a one sided story blind him with anger.Khloe couldn't understand how the situation changed so suddenly, one moment she had the upper hand now she's being questioned!'how am I supposed to deal with this? Dad might be biased but if he starts doubting me, there will be trouble. I have to try to turn this on Vanessa somehow.'"Dad, I -" Mr Lawson raised his hand to stop Khloe from speaking."Who informed you that Vanessa saw and offended Master Leonardo? I want the truth Khloe." The expression on Mr Lawson's face was frightening and his voice was stern. Khloe felt a shiver go down her spine."I... I was..." Like everyone major business man, Mr Lawson had the knack for identifying lie
"Th... That's not what I meant, Master Leonardo. Honestly didn't mean it that way." Beads of sweat formed on Mr Lawson's back. Leonardo noticed the shards of glass on the floor right then. "What's that?" Leonardo asked."That's a broken cup, Master Leonardo." Mr lawson replied with a faint smile. Leonardo took a look at khloe's swollen and partly red face before turning to Mr Lawson. Although Mr Lawson was the older man, he was afraid to look Leonardo in his eyes for fear that he had actually come to punish his daughter. Instead, Mr Lawson simply hung his head low with shame."It seems like this isn't a good time for me to visit, President Lawson. Were you punishing Khloe?" Leonardo asked."I was about to punish Vanessa, Master Leonardo. Vanessa must have offended you with her presence earlier at the mall. So we were having a talk to decide on the best way to punish her. " Mr Lawson started.'its better I handle Vanessa's punishment than leave it to him to decide. I'm not sure what ha
When both Vanessa and Leonardo made eye contact with one another, Leonardo pulled his hand away all of a sudden. His movements were quick - it looked as if he was trying to avoid some sort of poison that was on Vanessa's face. Both Khloe and Mr lawson saw everything that Leonardo had done to Vanessa, and their minds were completely blown. Mr Lawson's eyes looked like they were about to fall off his sockets; he couldn't believe what he had just seen. When Leonardo ran his fingers across Vanessa's face, he saw a hint of sympathy. However, when he tried to get a better look at this, Leonardo returned to his usual expressionless look once more. "Who did this to you?" Leonardo asked in a deep voice that seemed restrained. "Was it her or your father?" He shot Khloe a cold glare before taking a glance at Khloe's hands. He was contemplating whether to chop off one or both of Khloe's arms; 'how dare she lay hands on my woman! she probably doesn't want to live anymore, I'll definitely fulfi
"Khloe stop! Francis stop her please, I'm begging you!" Vanessa pleaded as she saw Khloe her so-called sister drop her five months old daughter to the ground harshly, hearing her child cry caused her to feel unbearable and helpless as she was restrained by two burly men, her struggles were fruitless. "Please have mercy Francis she is your daughter!" She begs her husband who just stands and watch the scene unfold with a look of disgust in his eyes as he says "who's daughter? She is not mine!" He smirks as he pulls Khloe into his embrace "Even you don't know who the father of your child is. " Khloe sneers " Francis only ever loved me, you were just his wife on papers that b*stard child of yours isn't his cause he never touched you! Did you think he will father a child with you just because he married you? He is the father of my son. Your daughter is merely a b*stard! " " I'm sure you didn't expect this, the man that night wasn't Francis, as for who is the biological father of you
Leonardo's body guards looked at her warily while Leonardo didn't react to the voice he heard, the gaurd pushing him didn't stop as he was not instructed to stop. Vanessa runs and blocks his path with her hands akimbo"why didn't you stop when I called out to you?"Leonardo stared at her with his ice cold eyes and Vanessa trembled but she still stood her ground stubbornly "Move!" That one word was voiced with so much coldness that Vanessa felt a chill go down her spine but still refused to back down"Master Leonardo." "Speak!"His voice was low, cold and commanding when he opened his mouth to speak.Vanessa bit the insides of her cheeks as she was nervous and didn't know how to start when faced with Leonardo's expressionless face."Master Leonardo.""Get her out of my sight!"Leonardo had already lost his patience even before hearing her out and ordered his men to take her out.Vanessa didn't want to go, she didn't want to repeat what happened in her past life as she believed her d
"I'm busy, you guys have fun!" His voice was cold and devoid of emotion as always. He didn't even wait for a response before he hung up. Beep! Jonas stares at his phone to see that the call has ended, he sighs heavily. "He still doesn't wish to see us?" He picks up a framed picture he keeps on his desk, in the picture you could see two young college boys. One had a smile so bright it could put the sun to shame while the other was the complete opposite, on his face was a frown of displeasure and he didn't seem enthusiastic for the photo. "Time does change ." He sets the picture back in place and resumes work on his laptop. ... Vanessa drives into a villa where her grand mother reside, though in her past life she didn't have any relationship with her grand mother and she barely had a relationship with her parents. She vows to build a good and healthy relationship with her family, she refuses to lose them in this lifetime! After losing them, she had no one to care for her. She knew
Vanessa pushed Leonardo into a garden where children's laughter could be heard, you could literally feel the joy and happiness radiating from everyone present in the park, the garden was a small yet incredibly beautiful space inside the park filled with lovely flowers in full bloom. Leonardo barely had an expression on his face but his eyes had a mix of emotions swirling in them. "I made everything myself" Vanessa displayed the meal she prepared with a proud look on her face. Leonardo looked at the meal and he knew it looked appetizing, so he looked at her to praise her culinary skill but stopped short when he saw her proud smile with her nose to the sky, he held back his praise while he thought 'she looked like a peacock showing off his feathers' "Doesn't it look good?" "Who knows?" He sat down and looked at his plate filled with the food Vanessa served him before eating, his eating habits were so graceful and elegant. Vanessa couldn't take her eyes off him. She kept staring hi
When Vanessa walked into the house, she felt a pain, a dull ache in her chest. She had list everything dear to her in her past life and now that she has a second chance, she swore to make everything right! "Vanessa, Vanessa." She heard a familiar, warm but anxious sounding voice calling out her name. Immediately, Vanessa turned her head instinctively to see her mother's beautiful face. "Vanessa, where did you go? I've been looking for you, are you alright? Do you feel dizzy? Are you hungry? You scared me to death! You just returned from the hospital and the doctor said you need rest. You didn't even inform anyone of your whereabouts. If something happened to you you, what should I do then?" Maureen grabbed Vanessa's hand tightly, and Maureen's eyes reddened as she spoke. The doctor had stressed on Vanessa getting at least a week's rest after she had a terrible fall down the stairs that could have claimed her life. It's just been three days and Vanessa is already running around
