Toxic Love Chapter 21
Lorenzo winked at me. I rolled my eyes and quickly averted my gaze. I felt him sitting beside me and fixed the blanket loosely hanging on my shoulder. “Why didn't you wear a jacket? You're going to catch a cold..” he said, wrapping it around my body. I let out a sigh as I immediately felt the warmth. But I did respond to him and just looked straight ahead as if it was more interesting than him. “Silvia said you only ate a few..” My lips instantly pursed. “I had to do something earlier,” he added. I shook my head in disappointment as I knew he already got the trust of all the people here. It was just one of his amazing skills that my father admired. Lorenzo can melt everyone's heart even the most grumpy and hateful person on earth. And there's no doubt all the staffs here are already close to him like their best friends for years. “You should've just stayed wherever you went,” I finally said. Lorenzo chuckled, “I can't. You'll be lonely here” I looked at him, deadpan, “You kn

I let out a sigh of relief when Lorenzo silently left my room. Although I immediately felt guilty, I'm more relieved that he was no longer near me because I might suddenly burst out and say something I will regret after. I sat up on my bed and quickly grabbed my phone. Dialing, Hans, I finally decided to just leave this place right now before I lose my sh*t together. “Hello?”“Book me a flight to Dubai,” I said straight away. There was a long pause from the other line and I'm pretty sure he was waiting for me to explain why I suddenly wanted to go to another place when I had intended to stay here as long as I can. However, I didn't want to explain anything to him, so he let out a sigh. “Okay. Anything else?” I looked at the door and pursed my lips. I know it would be futile but I still wanted to keep Lorenzo away from me as much as I could. “I don't want anyone else to know where I am going..” “Lorenzo is there?” I nodded although I knew he couldn't see me. “As always,” I said

“Why did you leave?” Lorenzo asked in a very low voice. His gaze was intense as his blue eyes turned deep like an ocean that was piercing through me. I already expected it, but still, I couldn't help but be surprised. And in this case, I know there's no place I can hide from him anymore. I pursed my lips as I tried to avert my gaze, “Isn't it obvious that I don't want you around?” I retaliated. “Why are you here?” “To get you,” he replied in a heartbeat. My lips parted but I quickly closed it tightly. My heart immediately reacted but I tried to dismiss it right away. I had no time to feel anything other than anger towards him. Shaking my head, I responded, “Can you please stop lying?” I snarled as I narrowed my eyes on him. Lorenzo caught my gaze. His blue eyes turned darker and his jaw clenched as he stared back at me. “I'm not lying, babe. I'm really here to get you..” he said in his deep and firm voice. I clutched the handles of the paper bags tightly as I looked away. I

I tried to open it again, but the chauffeur was too fast, he's already settled in the driver's seat and quickly locked the car. And in just a second, we're already hitting the mainroad. I could only watch Lorenzo's image getting smaller outside the window. I let out an exasperated sigh, but then I realized it was actually better than having him join me here going back to my hotel. I'm not sure if he knew my hotel room. Because if he did, that only means his connections were really something. I quickly straightened on my seat when the car stopped and saw that we're already in front of the hotel. I didn't wait for the chauffeur to open the door for me, so I hastily stepped out of the car right away. I heard a loud sigh of protest from the chauffeur, but I just completely ignored him. I crossed my arms as I waited for him to take all my stuff from the compartment without saying a word. He silently took the paper bags out and was about to go inside the hotel when I immediately stop

“Good evening, Miss Brianna,” he greeted with a toothy smile. “I just forgot to give you this,” he said, then lifted up the red wine on his right hand. My brows furrowed as I stared at it. It's my favorite wine, but I certainly am not gonna drink that. “Why are you giving me that?” I queried. His eyes widened a little, but he quickly recovered and lifted the corner of his mouth, “Ah, no. I mean Mr. Rodriguez forgot to give you this,” he corrected then chuckled. I stared at him cautiously. I had a feeling that he was lying. However, I didn't voice out my skepticism only because I didn't want to make this conversation long. Nodding my head, I said straightforwardly, “Please tell Mr. Rodriguez that he didn't have to give me all these. I'm only accepting it now out of politeness, but I won't appreciate it next time” Damien looked taken aback at what I had said. He probably didn't expect me to say it, but I'm not someone who pretends that I like those things for I know it won't end.
Toxic Love Chapter 26
I clasped my hands over my chest as I stared at the closed door. The way Lorenzo said it felt like a curse that gave me chills down my spine. Shaking my head, I headed to the kitchen and drank a glass of water to calm my nerves.Why am I nervous? Lorenzo was not a man of his words and he probably only said it to threaten me. After taking a long bath, I decided to get my breakfast outside. However, as I just stepped out of my suite, I saw Damien walking to my direction with a big and bright smile.“Good morning, Miss Brianna,” he greeted enthusiastically as he hastened his pace. “I was just about to ask for your breakfast” Instantly, my brows knitted together, “May I know why?” “Mr. Rodriguez wants to treat you to a breakfast of your choice..” he answered while grinning boyishly. I folded my arms across my chest and stared at him lazily, “Did you tell him what I said last night?” I queried. The grin plastered on Damien’s face faltered, but he quickly changed his expression as he

I rushed towards the elevator and wasn't surprised to see that Lorenzo followed suit. His aura was domineering as he stood beside me. Unconsciously, I stepped on the side and kept a good distance, but he had seen it through and immediately followed me like a magnet. “Lorenzo,” I warned without looking at him. “Yes, babe?” My forehead creased as I held my bag tightly, “Give me some space” It was not a request but an order. Gladly, he understood and unexpectedly took a step aside without any objections. However, the distance he left between us was just a tiny space that only a finger could fit in. I shook my head. Well, it's better. At least our skins weren't touching. My eyes remained straight and not even once I glanced on my side. Although I could feel Lorenzo's intense gaze darted at me, I deliberately ignored him and pretended he wasn't existing at all. I don't want to be bothered by him. In fact, if I could only teleport, I would just do that so I won't endure staying w
Toxic Love Chapter 28
Lorenzo was stuck with me after we ate breakfast. He insisted on taking me around which I couldn't decline since I didn't want to go back to the hotel and be pestered by Damien. I clicked my tongue. I don't know why I am so unlucky. Even if I was able to avoid Lorenzo and he didn't find me here, I still have no escape being pestered by his kind. I shook my head. “We’ll go shopping for your clothes first,” Lorenzo instructed as he tried to plan for our itinerary. “I’m done shopping,” I replied rather quickly.“It’s on me”I rolled my eyes, “So? If I want something, I will buy it with my own money” I heard the chauffeur clear his throat but either of us paid him attention.“What do you want to do then?” Lorenzo asked dotingly. I raised an eyebrow as the corner of my lips lifted, “I want to be alone” He didn't reply and just stared at me darkly. I didn't back down and stared back at him. Although my heart was thumping loudly as I looked straight into his eyes, I was determined t
