The Pearsons all run after the man that just barged into their mansion. "What sort of nonsense is this?!" Mrs. Avery yells as she sees Lucien sitting on her expensive couch, his legs crossed as he grins at them while fiddling with his fingers. "How dare you come into my house, you filthy piece of garbage!" Mr. Santiago barks, staring daggers at the young man before him. Juliet comes in at that moment, Brianna rushing after her. Her eyes land on the handsome man seated on the couch, grinning at her parents. "Lucien, What are you doing?" She half yells as she glares at him. "My love" Lucien calls out as he stands up, approaching her with a smile on his face. His hands reach out to hold on to hers. Juliet furiously slaps away his hands as she glares at him. "Don't you dare touch me, Lucien! What sort of nonsense is this? What do you think you're doing?" "Darling, this Lucien is good for nothing!" Mrs. Avery cries out. "He's just come back to ruin our lives!" "Get the fuck out of
Juliet runs up the fleet of stairs as she heads for her room. Reaching her room, she enters and bangs the door close, and runs to her bed. She crashes her face first on the king-sized bed and lets all her bottled-up tears fall. She cries and cries feeling the pain resurfacing all over again. All those years she had to suffer because of what Lucien had done. The humiliation, the mocking, the pain. It had almost led her to commit suicide. She would have most definitely been dead by now if that stupid Brooks did not save her. Juliet hated Lucien but she despises that disgusting Brooks even more. She is glad the wedding had been called off otherwise, she wonders what she would have done. Juliet is sure Brooks has a hidden agenda behind marrying her, but her parents fail to see that. They worship Brooks as they refuse to see the reason. Different thoughts rush through her mind as she lies there. Soon sleep washes over her and her world goes pitch black. Lucien walks up the grand st
Lucien freezes and swallows a lump of spittle as he hears what she just said. He's lost for words as he stands there, staring at Juliet who stares back at him. Juliet thinks Lucien doesn't take her seriously so she raises the knife about to slit her wrist. "Juliet!" Lucien screams, raising his hands up above his head in surrender but still doesn't leave. Juliet stops just before the knife touches her skin. "I'm really serious," she says again. "Okay fine" he exhales, "I'll leave but please, put the knife down." He whispers as he steps backward. Lucien tries to say something again but Juliet grits her teeth, showing him the knife. He sighs and quietly steps out of the room. Mrs. Avery twists and turns on her bed. She can't bring herself to sleep after what happened earlier today. She turns facing the other direction and sees her husband is wide awake too. "Hubby, you're still awake?" She asks and widens her eyes, pretending to be surprised. "How can I sleep when that good-fo
The Pearsons are finally done with their breakfast. They had ignored Lucien throughout and pretended like he never existed. Juliet excused herself as she received a phone call from the office. She had not attended to the matters of the office since before her wedding. She walks to the living room to receive the call. One by one every one stands up to leave the dining table. That's after they each glare at Lucien as they pass him by. Lucien chuckles as the Pearsons all walk out on him. Their behaviors always seem to amuse him with each passing day. His big phone suddenly vibrates in his pocket and he looks around to make sure no one is close by. Satisfied, he brings out the phone from his pocket and looks at the caller I.D. It is Declan his right-hand man. "Good morning Sir." The voice mutters at the other end of the line. "Good morning Declan, I thought I said you shouldn't call me." Lucien frowns as his eyes dart around making sure no one is seeing him. "Yes Sir. I'm sorry
'I hate you' that one sentence keeps repeating itself in Lucien's mind as he stands there unable to move. He had been standing there for quite a while now since Juliet left him in the garden. He could see the anger in her face as she spat those hurtful words. Lucien couldn't remove that face from his mind as he feels like his heart is breaking over and over again just by seeing that face. Could she? Could she really hate him? He wonders as his heart tugs painfully in his chest. Did Juliet really mean all she just said or did she say all that in a fit of rage? He runs his hands through his thick hair and sighs. His love for Juliet is certainly going to drive him crazy one day. He doesn't know what to do as he stands there looking at the door Juliet's body had disappeared into minutes ago. His eyes suddenly harden and he balls his fist. He would most definitely fight for his love. It doesn't matter. He could lose anything else but he would never ever give up on Juliet. Never
Juliet comes out of the bathroom drying her wet hair with a small towel as she walks across the large room. She has just finished taking a shower and heads to her built-in closet, which is at the other end of her room. She hums a song as she enters the closet and looks around, trying to decide on what to wear. After contemplating for a little while, she settles on a pink crop top and jeans, which she quickly puts on before she grabs her phone and exits the room. Juliet is just walking out of her room when she feels her phone vibrating. She peeks at the phone screen and sees it's a call from the office. She sighs and quickly swipes across the screen to answer the call. Since it had been a while she's been at the office, she's been getting so many calls now and then. "Yes? Tell me." She mumbles immediately after the call gets connected. Maria, her secretary's thin voice rings out from the other end. Juliet rubs her forehead a little as she hears Maria making her report. "Ah!" S
Mr. Santiago and Mrs. Avery are sitting in their room making a toast and giggling like teens when they suddenly hear a piercing scream. Mrs. Avery freezes. "That sounds like Juliet!" She informs her husband in a panic. Mrs. Avery looks at her husband while shivering and the next second drops her glass of wine, stands up swiftly and dashes out of the room while breathing heavily. Mr. Santiago too stands up, almost toppling over the small table as he follows his wife out. The two run in the hallway as they head downstairs trying to know where the scream came from. Mrs. Avery runs in front of her husband as she hurriedly descends the staircase in panic, Mr. Santiago following closely behind. She runs towards their large living room and she sees her two daughters standing there. "What happened Brianna? Juliet?" She asks wiping off the beads of sweat that suddenly appear on her forehead due to how fast she ran and approaches them, almost out of breath. She breathes a sigh of relie
Juliet's car speeds on the highway as she drives heading straight for the hospital Lucien is being admitted in. She blinks her eyes hard, trying to stop the tears which are threatening to fall. Her whole sight is blurry due to the tears forming in her eyes. She keeps driving nonstop, heading to one of the local hospitals in the city, 'City Hospital.' Only a few minutes have passed, but she feels like it is taking forever to reach her destination. After driving for some more minutes, she finally spots the gate of the large hospital a few meters away from her. 'City Hospital' is the name written on the signboard and Juliet's car speeds through the gate without even stopping. Hundreds of reporters all stand in front of City Hospital shouting and yelling out tons of questions as they struggle to pass through. The hospital's security tries their best to hold back the hungry reporters. One of the paparazzi suddenly turns around as he sees a red Ferrari driving very fast towards the
