Lucas sighed deeply when he saw the gates to his family's mansion open as the place had both bad and good memories.The bad memories however overshadowed the good ones and that was why he refused to come here. The bad memories came rushing to his head as the car drove to the mansion. They finally reached it and Lucas got down from the car and headed straight for the entrance.He rang the doorbell and barely two seconds later, the door was opened by a helper."Good evening, Young Master,” she greeted him and slightly bowed her head.Lucas walked into the mansion and headed straight for the dining room as he wanted to be out as soon as possible. When he got there, he found it to be empty. This meant that his father hadn’t come down yet. He took off his jacket and sat down on his seat. This used to be where he and his parents would sit and dine together. Back then it used to be filled with laughter but now, everything had changed. He heard footsteps approaching the dining table and w
Lucas didn’t know what came over him to do such a thing but he didn’t regret it. His attention went back to Kiandra and he slowly moved the strands of hair that had fallen on her face away so it wouldn't disturb her.Just as he was about to get up, Kiandra held his arm and when he turned he found her still asleep. ‘Please don’t kill my child,’ she muttered in her sleep and Lucas frowned. This was the second time he had heard Kiandra pleading for someone not to kill her child.He had asked his team to investigate the first time and they found nothing. Asking kiandra was out of it as he knew she wouldn’t tell him anything. "Kiandra, snap out of it, you're in a dream," he whispered to her. This seemed to work as she stopped mumbling and opened her eyes to look at him. "You were having a nightmare,” he told her and she closed her eyes back to return to sleep. Lucas stayed for a few minutes to make sure that she would be fine.And after being sure that she was okay, he covered her and
“Lucas, are you sure, you’ve never done this before,” Kiandra asked him worriedly.“How hard can it be,” Lucas replied“I want my hair braided into two,” Zendaya told Lucas and Kiandra knew at that moment that it was going to be a disaster.“Lucas, let me help you with it,” Kiandra offered.“No, she said she wants me,” Lucas said defensively. He then tilted his head to the side and said to Zendaya, “Let’s go get your hair braided.”“Yay!” Zendaya said excitedly and she and Lucas went back to the room she had just come out from. Kiandra quickly followed them so as to keep an eye on them.Lucas sat Zendaya down at the dressing table and he touched her hair. “How did you want your hair again?” he asked her.“One to this side and another one to this side,” Zendaya answered and she described it to Lucas with her hands.He picked up the brush and brushed Zendaya’s hair. He then parted her hair and that part had no problem. The problem however started when it came to the braiding part.Havin
“Why do I feel like you're mad at me?” Liam asked casually. He squinted his eyes when he saw Lucas get up from his seat and walked over to where he was. Liam already knew what to expect and so he calmly took the punch that Lucas gave him the next second. He staggered back but he managed to regain his composure. “Your punches have become weak,” he mocked Lucas. Having grown up together, they had had their fair share of physical fights.“You’re lucky we’re in the office or I swear, I wouldn’t have stopped,” Lucas growled.“Why are you getting angry at me when I didn’t do anything?” Liam asked as he touched his jaw.“You fucking left me on my own. If not that I had my penthouse to go to, I would have been stranded,” Lucas yelled.“I don’t understand why you feel I left you stranded. I mean, I’m not the one who showed up unannounced at your house,” Liam defended himself. “And I did give a suggestion that you could go to your father’s house.”Lucas moved to punch him but Liam wasn’t ready
Kiandra arrived at Zendaya school and after going through security, she was allowed in where the principal was already waiting for her.“What happened?” She asked as the principal led her to the school’s health center. “According to her teacher, she brought out her food to eat at lunchtime and she took a bite of the food. She was however unable to take another bite as Jayden Gerano threw something which made her food spill. A few minutes later, she started throwing up and that was when she was taken to the school nurse,” the principal explained.So this meant that Jayden had unconsciously saved her daughter from harm, even though he had no idea that he was doing so.They got to the school nurse’s office and Kiandra was immediately ushered in to see her daughter. “Zendaya,” Kiandra called and she rushed to hug her daughter.“Mummy,” Zendaya responded in that weak voice of hers. She was immediately reminded of that man’s words. It was just this morning that Lucas commented on how Zenda
After taking her sample, Kiandra was allowed to go and visit her daughter. Her heart broke upon seeing her daughter in her unconscious state. There was an oxygen mask attached to her daughter’s face and she looked even paler. The room was quiet and all that could be heard was the beeping of the machine.“My daughter, I’m so sorry for putting you in this situation. I shouldn’t have trusted that man but I did and now, you’re paying for it once more,” she said and tears started to drop from her face.She reached out and gently stroked her daughter’s hair. “Come back to me, please and I promise I’ll never put you in danger again,” she stated.The door to the room opened and when Kiandra turned to look at who it was, she saw Jeremy alongside Samantha. “I came as soon as I received your voice message,” her friend said as she rushed over to where Kiandra was.“I’ll leave you two alone,” Jeremy said and he left, making sure to close the door behind him. "The man who brought me here told me Z
After much persuasion, Kiandra managed to get Jeremy to go home. He only did so after promising that he would come back the next day.“You should get going,” Kiandra then said to Samantha. “There’s no way I’m leaving you and Zendaya in this state,” Samantha said.“The doctor already said Zendaya won't regain her consciousness today and so you don’t need to worry. Besides, you have to work in the morning,” Kiandra pointed out.“I’ll take a few days' leave to take care of you and Zendaya,” Samantha resolved.“You should know that I won’t allow you to do that,” Kiandra sighed. “Besides, Lucas’ father is already taking care of the well-being of Zendaya,” she told Samantha.“Do you trust him?” she asked.“Honestly, I don’t know but for now, I need his influence so my daughter can get the best care. And besides, he’s already footing her medical expenses and that alone is already more than enough help to me,” Kiandra stated.At least she wouldn’t have to go through the tedious process of app
"Ok I see how bad it looks for Lucas but I can tell he isn't the one behind what happened to Zendaya. I just need you to give me a chance to explain on his behalf," Liam requested.“Alright, go ahead,” Kiandra gave her permission.“Firstly, if Lucas had indeed tried to kill Zendaya, I would have known as he would have told me. Secondly, we didn’t bring our personal guards to that city except for our head of security. The guards who were with us that day were hired upon our arrival to the city. And the contract ended the day we left the city and neither of us had direct contact with the guards as everything was taken care of by our head of security.”“That doesn’t prove Lucas’ innocence,” Kiandra declared.“Do you have proof of the message you sent to Lucas and the reply?” Liam sighed. “I have it saved to my cloud but I don’t have my phone here,” Kiandra answered.“Lucas is with it and he will return it to you. Once he does, send the messages to me. And I promise, if Lucas indeed trie
