"Why did you ask for me, Mr. Lust?" Luca turned his attention back to Carnation. Of course, he had a different reason for inviting her to his office.
"I know you're in a serious relationship with my friend." He cleared his throat to remove the bitterness in his voice. He should not be bitter. Carnation and Wregan are not to blame for his heartbreak. He was a coward, who did nothing to win Carnation's heart.
"Wregan spoke to me, and he wants me to cancel your contract here in Casa de Lujuria. Did he discuss this with you? Do you know about his plan?" Carnation nodded. "Can I then ask you a question?"
"What is it?"
"I just want to know," he paused. None of his own, Luca clenched a fist under the table. "I don't have the right to ask, but I want to know. Do you perhaps. . .love him?" He swallowed hard, nervous at Carnation's response. Yes, she confessed to him that she had a crush on him. And, he just wants to know her true feelings for Wregan, because a
Luca mercilessly cut his victim's neck with a razor-sharp knife. Its blood dripped into the tiled sink, and some splattered on his rag clothes and plastic apron. His unfortunate victim twitched, and was eventually killed.From the tools pouch, Luca took an electric meat saw and faced the victim again. When the blood stopped flowing from its neck, he began to cut the victim's neck. Too much blood flowed again from the headless victim. He then sliced open its stomach to remove the flesh inside, but he hadn't finished when he heard a series of knocks on the stainless door of the room where he was. Luca turned away from what he was doing and grudgingly opened the door."What?!?" he shouts. He didn't care if his body and face were covered in blood or if he stank."What the f*ck!" Wregan exclaimed, taken aback by his friend's bloodied appearance. He even clutched his chest in horror. "What the f*ck are you doing, dolt?""I'm in the process of butchering a
The door to Luca's office swung open violently, letting his enraged younger brother Farkas to enter. Farkas walked straight in front of his office table and slammed it with both hands."What the f*ck are you thinking!?" Farkas yelled angrily. Luca looked up at Farkas without emotion, his younger brother crouched a little because he was sitting in a low swivel chair."What are you doing here, Fast?""Mistina informed me that you intend to hand over Casa de Lujuria's management to me; what the hell, bro? She said you're leaving, and where the f*ck are you going?""Yeah, I'm planning to accept Dad's offer," he replied calmly to Farkas. Luca returned his attention to the reports he was reading. Before leaving for New York, he needed to finish everything and make sure everything was in order before handing over his nightclub to his brother."What!? Are you insane? Have you forgotten why Mistina and I chose to live with you here in the Philippines? I tho
As Luca drove his car into the front yard of the mansion, the double iron bar gate opened. He stopped in front of the main door of the modern-style mansion. He hadn't gotten out of the car when an elderly man appeared from the main door. It was led by a sexy and beautiful woman who seemed to be around Luca's age. Mr. Lindenhurst greeted his son, but instead of greeting his father back, Luca turned his gaze to the woman with his father."And who the hell is this woman?" Luca asked, referring to the woman who had her hands clasped on her father's arm."Her name is Samantha, and I married her last month, and—""Seriously!? You got married again?" he exclaimed in disbelief. F*ck! Their father remarried without their knowledge. "She's about my age, Dad; how is that even possible?""Son, nothing is impossible when you're in love!" Mr. Lindenhurst gently drew his wife in and placed his arm around his wife's shoulder. "Samantha and I love each other."
Luca was not in a good mood when he got out of his car. He slammed the car door shut and dashed to his father's mansion's main door. He's had too much today. He went to meeting after meeting; they had a client for investment who abruptly withdrew, and he became irritated because of that. He waited for several hours at the location they agreed on, but the investor didn't show up. He only found out from his father's secretary that the moron had withdrawn for personal reasons. Damn it! He wasted his time on nothing. Luca is pleased because he is so busy that he doesn't have time to think about anything else, and he sometimes forgets to eat. He had no time to think about Carnation because he was completely focused on his work. He enjoys it, but sometimes he becomes overwhelmed and his own health suffers; other times, it was his mood, as it is now. He was in a bad mood today because of the motherf*cker. "You're early now, eh?" Luca stopped walking when he heard Samantha's
Carnation was nearly out of breath when Wregan's beautiful car entered the underground parking lot of the Seven Sins Luxurious Hotel. She swallowed hard, too nervous, while her fiancé concentrated solely on driving."Did you have a meeting with your friends?" she asked Wregan, who nodded immediately. This was Carnation's first visit to Casa de Lujuria after her contract was terminated."I'm sorry for not informing you sooner; Gregory called and said we'd be meeting at Luca's nightclub tonight," Wregan explained right away. They are scheduled to travel to Tagaytay today to celebrate their second month anniversary. However, instead of bringing her to Tagaytay, the young man brought her here. Carnation never asked the question again. She doesn't want to call Wregan's actions and decisions into question. Despite the fact that she is the man's fiancee, she always remembers to respect his privacy. The young man lives in a dangerous world, and she does not want to inte
That night, Carnation had a difficult time sleeping. She awoke earlier than usual the next day, still full of unanswered questions. Her last encounter with Luca in the young man's office has haunted her dreams. Her mind is becoming confused once more, her chest tightens whenever she recalls the young man, and she has a strange feeling in her heart that Carnation does not want to be named and accepted. She inhaled deeply. She shouldn't be thinking about Luca. Wasn't she content with having betrayed Wregan once? She once responded to another man's kiss? She leaned over to face her sleeping fiance, and before she knew it, her right hand rose to caress Wregan's left cheek. "Please forgive me if I did that to you," she said sadly and sincerely to her sleeping finacé. "The truth is, I don't know why I kissed him, but I promise it won't happen again. I won't allow any man to kiss me anymore, absolutely not," Carnation continued caressing Wregan's clean and handsome fa
"Haven't you and Wregan talked about marriage yet?" Leonora asked full of curiosity while watching Carnation put icing on the cupcakes. She baked this because Carlgem requested homemade pastries. The oven rang so Carnation turned her back on her stepmother for a moment to pick up the cooked cookies. She placed the baking pan on the rack and faced her stepmother again. "We haven't discussed it yet, Tita; I'm not even sure if his proposal to me is sincere; Wregan hasn't even given me a ring." Carnation couldn't hide her disappointment. When Wregan proposed to her, they were in the midst of making love. She didn't know if it was a joke or not, she just said, "yes!" "Oh come on!" her stepmother began, who had been silent for a while due to her revelation. "Love is based on how you and your fiancé feel for each other, not on the ring." "I know Tita Leonora, but I can't help myself. Proposing without a ring? He looks like he hadn't thought of it and just came
"Are you okay?" Carnation blinked several times in response to her fiancé's question. She looked up from her meal to see Wregan. "Y-yes, why do you ask?" "You've been like that since last night. You're just quiet and don't talk. Is there a problem?" Carnation knew Wregan had noticed her sudden silence the night before, but the young man only now dared to ask. He was definitely just waiting for her to say it, but he couldn't take it any longer. Carnation took a deep breath. "I'm fine. Maybe I'm just tired, I've been taking care of daddy all day," she reasoned and the young man nodded at her immediately. "How's your dad?" "He's getting better and better. Thanks to you, Wregan." She smiled at her fiancé but the young man just stared at her earnestly. "Why? Is there dirt on my face?" The young man shook his head in response and then smiled at her. "Let's visit your dad tomorrow. I didn't see him yesterday when I picked you up," Wre
