Lillian walked as though counting her footsteps with her head lowered to the ground. She felt uneasy about her movement right now, but couldn't help it. It was as if her dress offended her with the way she fought with it, squeezing the sides tight.Don had sent a guard to call her into his room and somehow, she felt it was about what he saw earlier. What if it was truly about Drake, what would she say then?All what she had been trying to avoid in the beginning was coming back to hunt her with so much force.Since her blissful night with Don in his other house, she never imagined visiting him in this manner, looking so restless and filled with thoughts that made her heart skip.Glancing up at the two men who stood gallantly at the door in front of her, she gulped down nothing and exhaled sharply but softly.They didn't hesitate to pave the way by opening the door for her. She let out a slow sigh before walking fully into the room.The door locked behind her, and immediately a pair of

Silence embedded all over the place, as just the clicking of forks against the plates could be heard in the dinning room. Gulping noises rolled in, followed by an even louder clicked sound from a plate.It was Eva, she had just carelessly dumped her fork on her plate, but she didn't seem to be bothered by what she had done to ruin the peaceful atmosphere.“Father, who the hell is this man? And what the fuck has he been doing here for the past few days?” She couldn't take it any longer, so she didn't waste even a second to expressing her discontent, having been that her head was unable to wrap on the young man's identity.Her curiosity was already at its peak and no matter how she tried, she couldn't figure who he was exactly.Some days back, she snuck up on them to listen to their conversation but turns out they could be more secretive than she thought. She barely heard whatever discussion they had, more like they knew of her intention beforehand.Pablo Escobar, who had the same aston

“Welcome back home, Rex.” Rex made a quick halt at the entrance with an alerting look. His eyes rolled up to the massive banner which also had, 'Welcome back home' in bold printing. It was hung in between two pillars in the living room.Quietly, he took his gaze back to the people standing in front of him with huge smiles on their faces. They were his boss's wife, the maidservants, and a few fellow guards, which Draco and Drake weren't among.“We're glad to have you back.” Lillian stepped out of the midst of others to suppress his already surprising expression.Rex turned to glance at Bella beside him, but she just shrugged off, indicating she also wasn't aware, and it was definitely the truth.Lillian didn't inform anyone about this until today, it was just an idea she came up with earlier today, and she decided to just go about it on her own with the intention of also surprising Bella.She chuckled, seeing the duo in front of her not attempting to move at all, “Come on now guys, I

The silence in the room became so tense, but it all disappeared when Pablo's aura changed everything. Walking into the room with his hands clasped together behind his back brought a feeling of relief to the nurse.At least even if she would be uncomfortable with his presence, it would relieve her of the drama that was about to come, obviously from Eva.“You're finally awake.” Eva turned to her father as she climbed down the bed. The look on her face was no longer hardened as earlier.“Father.” She called out lowly.“How is she?” Pablo shot the nurse a glance.The nurse, who was now standing erect with head lowered to the ground, replied, “She is better. Though, I haven't run the test on her.”“What really happened to me?” Eva was forced to interrupt the nurse as her brows etched confused.“Seeing how you are, I'm sure you are feeling better.....” Pablo blew out a small amount of air from his mouth and turned to the nurse, “Get the test done as soon as possible.”“Alright boss.”Eva g

Lillian dipped a white towel into a bowl of warm water as she gently wiped the bruise on Don's cheek with it. Her gaze met his a few times, but she didn't say a word neither did he yet, she could feel he was staring deeply at her.The blow Don threw at Felix almost resulted in a serious fight. Fortunately, only one punch met Don's face, while the rest of the blows were directed towards Felix. It was not until the others came out to separate them and asked the both of them to go home.Everything happened like a dream to Lillian, though she was grateful Don appeared at the right time to save her from the harassment. She'd never expected for him to come to her rescue, looking that furious. At first, she thought his anger was targeted towards her, so her heart escalated in fear, but after realizing it wasn't to her, she felt relieved and happy. For the first time in their marriage, he didn't lash out on her when something like that happened. She didn't know how to thank him, especially
