Lucy’s POV"I don't understand why you bring this up again, Arman." I shook my head and stared at him angrily.When he gently lifted my chin to meet his gaze, I felt a flush go down my cheeks. He then said those magic words, "I love you...""What?" I took a step back, but he drew me near enough to him."I love you, Lucy," he said in a gentle voice.My eyes sharpened in confusion as I asked, “What are you talking about?” “I know that it was already too late to say this. But I love you…. Do you believe me?” he asked, begging me to believe him but in fact I have confusion whether to believe him or not. I swallowed nervously because I could feel his lips on my cheek. I looked up and parted my lips to say something, but he grabbed my lips and kissed me fiercely and tenderly as he owned me. My eyes widened as he deepened the kiss until I found myself kissing him back. Then I nibbled his lower lip and pushed him away, "So, you didn't file the divorce finalization to the court? So we're st
Lucy’s POV"I lost count," he said in a soft voice, avoiding eye contact with me. Even though he probably felt ashamed to say it in front of me, I can't tell him to stop killing people; that's his only way to make it in the underworld. "Just so you know, I don't judge you," I said as I walked toward the door.And he stood up to stop me, “I’m sorry…” As I lifted my eyes to meet his, I looked down at the hand that was clutching my wrist. And I said, "I'm sorry, but I think we're both ready to move on. You should file that divorce finalization in court, alright?" “How many times have I told you that I won’t give up. Lucy?” he said, his voice becoming grave again, like he was pleading with me the whole time. "Arman, I can't give you a chance. Do you know why? Because I won't even let myself get over what happened. It still bothers me, from the day my Dad died to the day I almost died—those people still living their best lives while I'm here miserable." My voice trailed off as I wiped
Lucy’s POV"What about this dress?" Cecille suggested while pointing towards the high-slit emerald bodycon dress. "Thank you, it looks so nice," I told her with a smile. "This might work. Please call Alicia." She smiles and nods, "Of course. What do you want me to say to her?" "Tell her to get everything ready, like the bride's bouquets and the special video at the venue." "All right, Miss Lucy." Cecille gently shut the door, and I started getting ready for the wedding, which starts in an hour.After putting on my simple makeup and dress, I left the room with a sly grin on my face. Tonight's plans are going to be crazy, but I'm looking forward to getting even with my enemy. “Max! Let’s go.” My driver slid open the door for me and I sat in the backseat with a smile on my face. Cecille grabbed all my things also and she sat next to me. “You looked so happy today, Miss Lucy.” I answered, “Of course, it’s my cousin’s wedding day!” We arrived at the location just as the wedding
Lucy’s POV"I want to know where you are taking me." I asked so quietly that it was scarcely heard as I fastened my seat belt.I felt my heart racing so fast when his eyes met mine, and to my surprise, he lowered his head to kiss me. I tried to get away from him, but his kiss was stronger than my fear. Many things are making me worry these days, but his lips, his embrace, his smell, and everything else about him make me feel like everything will be okay. I shut my eyes and kissed him back with the same intensity. I opened my mouth and twisted my tongue around his. I felt like heaven every time he kissed me. He kissed me for so long that I could hardly catch my breath. He whispers as I gently open my eyes, "I'm proud of you..." I stared at him, my smile fading. With a deep breath, I confronted him. "I did what I believed was right... What were you doing there? You're the one who destroyed their wedding car, aren't you? It was you, wasn't it?" A proud smile spread across his face
Lucy’s POVThey stared at each other so hard that it looked like one would attack the other instantly.I cleared my throat, my voice trembling with tension as I asked, "Hey, is your meeting over?" "Yes," Arman said in a calm voice."Okay, then let's go? We probably have a lot to do tonight. Let's go..." Saying this quietly while holding his hand and trying to get him to stop fighting. Until he said, "No, I'm not done yet here, honey dovey." I tightened my lips, my heart pounding as I watched him glare at Hugo. "Don't you dare look at my wife again, Hugo. I don't want to hear a word from you." His voice was laced with anger and a hint of threat. "And don't forget, you're just your father's son. You haven't proven anything yet." Hugo didn't say anything; all he did was look at Arman with a mean look. Then Arman grabbed my hand, and we both walked away from the "It's 5:00 pm. Where do you want to go?" he asked as he looked at his watch. I gritted my teeth and muttered, "Uhm, I sti
Lucy’s POVArman was rubbing himself rough against me all the time. He moves my hips back and forth and hits my body like he was not breaking me.And then he opened his mouth and sucked my breast again, leaving a mark that I know anyone could see. I held on to his shoulder while he pushed me hard, and I gasped when I felt his hot fluid inside me. I quieted my cries and asked Arman, "I'm not on the pill. What if I get pregnant?" "Yes, Lucy, that's what I want. Sow my seed in you again and again until you get pregnant."I pulled away from him, my knees were trembling in fear as I asked, “What? Are you… are you really doing this to me?” He chuckled softly and said, “You’re mine.” There was a lake outside when I got out of the car. I sighed and looked around, but no one was there. That's where I went to clean up. I let the water wash over my whole body until I felt a hand behind me. "Another time?" Arman asked as he delicately rested his hand on my shoulder and spread my legs apart
Lucy’s POVHe flashed a smile at me and said, “You know my name?” I replied, “Yes, I heard it the last time. What are you doing here?” "This place is for sale, so I came here to check it out," he replied coolly. "Wait, Lucy..." My grandmother called my name, looking like she was in a hurry to stop me from leaving. My grandmother, a woman of quick wit and sharp tongue, turned her attention to the man beside me. "Ah, Mr. Hugo Ricci, what brings you here unannounced? I was under the impression our meeting was off for today." "Mrs. Hansley, I am here to inspect the entire property," Mr. Ricci stated, his voice carrying an air of authority. "Are you selling the traditional house, grandma?" I asked my grandmother. She nodded and said, "Yeah, I need to sell it." "What for?" “For Jane.” she said. I smiled bitterly at her because she was doing her best to save Jane from getting rotten in prison. She seems to care more about Jane than I do, and I don't know why, but it really ge
Edward’s POV"What? Have they reconciled? Are they going to see each other again? I did everything to make her like me. But what I gave up for her will be for nothing?!" I got mad and slammed the chair against the wall. "No! F*Ck! No!" I yelled again. "She broke my heart, you know that?!" I said angrily.Seeing me go aggressive frightened my male secretary. I could not believe everything that was happening. Even though I sent her that video, she still forgave him and even took him back. My heart was pounding with resentment and envy as I tightened my grip on my hand.She knows why I like her so much, but she's still really into Arman. I will not sit idly by and observe their happiness. I need to do something to make them regret breaking my heart. "Joseph, you know what to do," I told my male secretary as I took a deep breath. "Send her the oleander flower and be sure she gets it. That's my dead last present to her." Joseph took a deep breath and fixed his glasses. "Do you really
