"Lucas, did you check everything?" Dylan questioned, buttoning his shirt in front of the mirror with his hair neatly arranged and packed in a grand style."Yes, Ms Anna works the day shift, but care to tell me why you're still going to the party when she wouldn't be there?" Lucas asked, standing behind Dylan and staring at him with so much curiosity. It wasn't until after a minute Dylan turned back to return his gaze,"Maybe I need to get closer to him, I don't know, or maybe…" Dylan was silent for a few seconds, then he brought his gaze back to Lucas whose brows were arched,"Is that what you wanna hear me say, Lucas?"Lucas gave Dylan a surprised look, and it was at that moment he realized Dylan was teasing him. He let out a deep frown, "Here's your jacket. I checked the status of the company like you instructed, it's still like you expected, and the doctors were able to get your father to a stable condition for the moment. For now, we should be thankful the company's doing so well

"I thought you said she wasn't going to be there, Lucas, so what the hell happened?" Dylan questioned in anger. What if he had decided not to come for the party like Lucas had said, then Anna would have fucking been alone with that bastard."I was certain she wasn't going to be there, maybe something happened without my knowledge. There's something else, I found this on Lyon, he's behind the article as well."Dylan collected the envelope from Lucas and walked over to his bed. He sat down and opened it, taking out whatever was in there. They were photos of Lyon in bed with a lady.Dylan scoffed,"That fucking bastard, he could have tried harder to keep this away from me. No one else knows?"Lucas nodded his head, and once again, Dylan scoffed out loud. "Send this to him immediately, and ensure you leave a message as well. If he fucking messes with me once again, I'm fucking going to pull his company under the ground without a second thought."Dylan rose to his feet and picked up his je

"It's two days left, and you're working?" Lucas questioned Dylan as he kept staring at him go through some files in a very serious manner on the couch."I know."Lucas turned his head sideways in curiosity as he stared at Dylan. This wasn't the Dylan he had known for years because a week like this really meant every damn thing to him and it was also at this time Dylan would usually be so silent, distant, and cold towards everybody including him."Okay, somethings wrong. Care to share." Lucas finally uttered after about ten minutes of silence, but Dylan simply raised his head to spare him a glance.He heaved deeply and said, "Do you think I'm going crazy?"Lucas arched his brows when he heard the question as he was confused. "What?""Oh, no, never mind. Did you send those stuff to Lyon?" Lucas cleared his throat aloud. He was worried about Dylan, but at the same time, he was glad Dylan was using days like this to keep himself busy with something and not think ok about his parent's dea

Anna woke up with a bad feeling, staring at the wall for as long as she could until she heard her daughter call her attention."Mommy! Mommy!" Emma called and ran up to her mother for a hug and a peck on the forehead."My little angel, did you sleep well baby?" Emma nodded her head. "Mommy, I saw Daddy."Anna arched her brows and gripped her daughter's arms by mistake. When Emma winced in pain, she immediately let go. "I'm so sorry baby, I didn't know." Anna had been scared. Did James meet her daughter in secret?"Daddy, where did you meet Daddy?" Anna questioned wondering what the hell her daughter was saying. Her heart kept thumping so hard and fast as she stared at her daughter. "Damn it!" Anna cursed in silence knowing that her daughter would not be able to answer the question. "Nanny, nanny!" Anna called out loud and when Sophia rushed downstairs, Anna rose to her feet."Emma says she met her Daddy? What is my daughter talking about?""No, when we went to the park, she met a str

NEXT MORNING:When Dylan woke up, he didn't bother to sit upright on the bed. He thought back on last night and everything that had happened. What happened at the bridge when he had almost done something very stupid to himself, and it was at that moment he suddenly recalled Anastasia. Her words rang in his ears over and over again.Dylan rose to his feet and began to pull off his shirt. He found a towel and tied it around his waist. There was a lot to do so he had to start getting ready. As he stayed under the shower, Anastasia kept popping up in his mind and no matter how much he tried to let her out of his head, it wasn't working. While still in the shower, Dylan had to hold onto his breath for a minute, before letting go.He stepped away from the shower and heaved deeply. Now wasn't the time to start thinking about the woman he had a very deep crush on, the woman who had comforted him yesterday, the woman who had made him realize that it wasn't the end of the world. He stepped ou
