53: Union
Glory TinaThanks for reading. I promised to not leave authors not bit I have to. I do not deny that this book is my slowest so far, but there has been reasons behind it. Last month was sisters wedding plus Christmas celebration. I barely had time to myself. This month I fell sick and was hospitalised and on medications. I kept it to myself and still tried to update. But a reader rated me half star without even knowing the reason for things. I am not happy about it. If you can't wait for ongoing story, read completed ones. Why ruin someone day because you're not having your way? I struggle to put words out as it is and some days I spend days trying to do that. I don't think it's fair though.

Estelle was just coming in from her lunch break when her phone beeped in her pocket. She picked it up, and it read.(Dinner at my place this evening, love. I’ll cook; you just come as you are; you’re already beautiful.)From JaceReceived 1:16 p.m.She was grinning from cheek to cheek, and this caught the attention of the doctor taking them because he asked what the last thing he said was. Thank God for her mate Josiah, who whispered to her that it was professionalism, to which she responded.The doctor then stared at her, and she knew he was telling her to focus with his eyes. No more distractions.As her training ended, she took an Uber over to Jace’s residence but messaged Darcy to inform her she wouldn’t be home today.It’s been a month since they first visited Star, and they’ve gone to see him a few more times since then. Jace wanted to spend more time with him, and who was she to deny him his rights? The agreement was to wait until her medical studies were over before making the

Estelle initially planned to get an Uber, but Jace thought his Lexus was a better option. She had gotten us tickets to see the premiere of the latest DC superhero movie featuring Dwayne Johnson, called The Black Mamba. He hadn’t seen it yet, and her excitement about it got him in the mood. He had an easy schedule for the day, so it was time to plan out the day. Though Estelle had suggested the date, he wanted to make it as easy on her as possible, which made him suggest the Lexus over an Uber. They drove it over to the cinema, and on our way, he asked how her day went. She told me it went well, and that was good to hear. She told him she also paid Orlando the money she owed him, which would bring whatever they had to an end. She thanked him, expressing her gratitude, but it was nothing to him. He would have done much more than that if that was what she needed. Her happiness was all he wanted to see. They arrived, and he got down and then helped open her door for her before offering h

Jace was currently going through the monthly review when the door to the office opened, and Caroline Forbes, his business partner, stepped in with a file in her hand. His head lifted to see her, and he saw Becky, his PA, behind her with a worried look on her face.“I tried to stop her, sir,” she told him, and he nodded, dismissing her from the office.She took her leave that very second, and his attention moved to Caroline, who looked unbothered by the entire situation.“Good day, Ms Forbes. What may I do for you today?” He asked, placing the pen in his hand on the table.She tossed the file in her hand onto the table, and a few pictures flew from inside onto the desk, half revealed.“What are these?” he asked, glancing at the half picture before moving his eyes to the woman who barged into his office.“Open it.” She commanded, and despite not wanting to follow her command, he did.He pulled out the picture, and it was a picture of him and Elle walking out of the town square, where the

“Daddy!” Elle called, half excited and half terrified at the unannounced appearance of her father. Jace was helping her move into the place Lyon had gotten for her almost three years ago. With clinicals rounded up, it’s almost time for her evaluation and graduation. Her evaluation was tomorrow, and her graduation was in a month. Estelle could finally move out of the hostel.She still couldn’t move in with Jace as he intended because her graduation drew closer, and they knew Lyon would love nothing but to be in attendance. They didn’t want him to find out about them in the wrong way or at the wrong time. They had waited until now to do things right, and that was what they wanted to do. Also, they were keeping off and limiting their interactions in public, being as safe as possible. And though they visited Sky many times in the past month, they did it at different times, both making sure he lacked nothing.Because of their agreement, they had to cut down on their intimacy, not being able

Her evaluation was a success, better than she expected, and the medical board congratulated her on her final evaluation score, though she had yet to see it. She had a beam on her face as she stepped out of the evaluation hall. Lyon waited for her outside, and though her eyes searched for Jace, who promised he’d be there, she didn’t see him.He came shortly after to bid her congratulations and moved on to organising the party.Jace had helped in getting a small private hall to celebrate her victories, since those they expected were about ten. The hall was enough, and the DJ and young tech guys handled the music, the light, and the connection. It was a conducive space with an amazing view, being on the sixth floor, and she gave kudos to Jace. She was happy to see the place and the plan, but all that excitement ended when Lyon put her life on a pedestal.Darcy was here to celebrate along with her boyfriend, and they seemed to find no problem with Lyon shoving her childhood in their faces.

Lyon could sometimes appear possessive and an annoying piece of shit, but he was never this disrespectful.“Where did you get that from?”“I don’t know,” he answered, his voice sounding lost.Lyon didn’t do this. He wouldn’t do this. Yet it felt weird that he had the picture to begin with when the only one she sent it to was Jace.The next slide came on, and she felt agitated for what it would be. But it was less private. It was a picture of her giving a speech in class, but the next was a picture of her mid-thigh, and it caused an awkward mumble amongst those watching.Her heart skipped in her chest. This was yet another photo she had sent to Jace while they were in their private naughty phase, and just like the first, she didn’t know where Lyon got it from.Two of those invited, taking it as their cue, stood up and left the hall, saying their goodbyes.She didn’t want to know; she just wanted to end the slide. “This shouldn’t be up there.”The next slide came on, and it was her with

Lyon and Elle drove home in silence, neither of them willing to speak to the other. They were both mad at each other’s actions. Elle was mad at Lyon because he had given into his fury and turned into a man she didn’t know. Lyon was mad at Elle because she had left him in the dark, and she and Jace both made him out as a fool in their doing.They could barely bring themselves to even look at each other. As soon as the car stopped before the penthouse, Elle got down and walked over to it, and Lyon followed behind her. She entered the house but didn’t lock the door. This was his house, and she couldn’t lock him out of it even though she wanted to. Darcy wanted to come over after the celebration ended, but after the fiasco at the party, she knew her friend would not come back today. She would stay at her fiancé’s place until the smoke cleared.“How long has it been going on?” Lyon asked with a furious voice as she made her way towards her bedroom.She halted but didn’t turn to look at him.
The Girl He Shouldn't Desire: His Best Friend's Daughter 61: Disaster
After ending the call with the attendant, Estelle came downstairs only to find Lyon there, as if he’d heard the call as well. He looked calm for a man who almost incapacitated another and had the rage of flipping the entire house upside-down last night. However, his knuckles didn’t look good. They were sore and needed medical attention, which he hadn’t given them yet. She worried for him, but her worry for Jace overshadowed her and fixed her mind on what was important. He asked if she was going somewhere, and she told him she was going to Jace, but before he could object, she told him she wasn’t returning to her room. She planned on going to him, and that was what she was going to do. He asked her if Jace was worth her defiance of his instructions, and she told him she loved him. He stepped out of the way without another utterance of words, and she ran out of the house to her car. She drove off, speeding just to get to her destination. Estelle arrived at the lounge lot and got out o
