‘You’re such a goddess Stephanie! But, who knows that you can be that evil too!’ Luke thought about what she had done to William
Liam quickly typed on the group, reminding everyone to be careful on this project. Duncan cursed Stephanie so badly in the group and when Luke saw how badly his buddies hated her, he told himself that his decision to let her go was the right one. The meeting went well until late lunch time and when she walked out with Nathan, Jacob went to her.
“Jacob”
“Madam, Mr Clark already booked a place for your lunch.” Jacob informed him
“Is he in the meeting?” Stephanie asked
“Yes. He booked the place for you and Nathan. I will drive you
Both of them stayed silent, but in the next moment, they heard someone knock on the door. Neither Stephanie nor Luke move to open it. Seeing Stephanie stay silent and someone out there knocked it aggressively, Luke turned around and opened the door. It was Nathan. He was shocked to find Luke was there but he looked worried.“Why are you here?” He asked Luke, but before Luke could answer it, he added, “Where is Stephanie?” He walked inside and suddenly stopped, pretty surprised after seeing her on the sofa. Nathan's eyes moved from looking at Stephanie to her phone that completely drowned in the ice bucket.“You scared me to the death!”“What? He went to you?” Stephanie said sarcasticallyNathan's phone rings aga
Stephanie quickly pushed him away. She was surprised with his sudden move. It wasn’t her who was taken aback with Luke's boldness, James also shocked with his boss’ move, especially acted like that in the public space. He was worried about him, Luke himself asked James to make the visit as private but he himself behaved recklessly in the public.Luke was stubborn enough to let her go, he pulled her back to his arms. He brought Stephanie’s face closer to him, whispering to her, “What? Don’t say you don’t like kissing with me? Don’t you remember our passionate sex before? You cried my name when I eat you inside”“You!!!” She smiled bitterly, he clearly tried to bring a mess to her life. It is fun for a while, just to vent her anger toward Martin. But she didn’t think it would continue for a l
In ChicagoMartin went to the hospital after landing, he accompanied Elena the whole night. He left the hospital in the morning, heading to the office. He was tired but he had an important shareholder meeting to go.“The meeting is rescheduled to 9 am. We have an hour to go!” Jacob informed him“Stephanie?” He asked as he took a sip of his coffee“About that….” Jacob was hesitant to say, but Martin’s eyes looked at him coldly“I found out that madam put her phone in the water, left the hotel to go to the club with Nathan and…”“Who?”
Stephanie walked into Luke’s office. Her eyes scanned inside and she found that the office is dominated with black color and somehow, it is intimidating.“Come here!” Luke asked her to follow himShe walked behind him, entering a private room behind his desk. It was like a bedroom, where there's a bed, closet, toilet, mini bar and a large sofa. He opened the curtains and the large window shows the city panorama with a nice light from the sunset. She walked to the window and couldn’t help but be amazed with the panorama. She turned to Luke, saying “This is beautiful!”Luke smiled and said, “Sit down then! Enjoy the view.”“What do you want to drink?” He walked to his mini bar in
Luke suddenly felt pain in his heart, seeing her cry her heart out like that. He couldn’t forgive himself, seeing her get hurt by his words. He stands there for half an hour, watching her crying in silence. He finally walked toward her and when he stood right in front of her, she raised her head, looking through his eyes with her red teary eyes. He pulled her to stand and wiped her tears from her beautiful face. He was about to say something but Stephanie spoke first.“You’re right! I know! Martin would never love me in his entire life. Because it is only Emily in his heart. I know that and I ignore it!”“....” Luke failed to say a word. He doesn’t know what to say and Stephanie speaks again“But, you’re the first person who called me out! It…...it really
Martin entered the jet, followed by Jacob. He, still carrying the iPad, turned into him before he entered his bedroom, “Why didn't you tell me earlier about this matter?”“About that, Mr Clark, I thought you don’t want to be disturbed when you’re with Ms Ross”“Since when you’re the one who decided what to do with my matter?”“I am sorry Mr Clark!” Jacob lowered his head“Next time, when you have information about anything related to Stephanie, you have to tell me immediately!” He said it with a deep tone and left Jacob, entering his bedroom, and slammed the door behind him‘Is he finally changed? He used to not care that much abou
An hour later, a black Rolls Royce Ghost arrived at a small winery in Sonoma. Leah saw two men dressed casually walking out from the car. Leah was taken aback seeing Martin, who somehow has a chilly aura. ‘Is he madam’s?’Martin and Jacob walked to the winery, he directly looked at Leah as he noticed that Leah was focusing her eyes on him.“Stephanie?” Martin asked first before Leah could say anything. However, she looked surprised“We’re looking for Ms Stephanie Young. He is Mr Martin Clark, her boyfriend,” Jacob explaining to Leah“Oh, madam! She is in the vineyard with my daughter Belle,” Leah said with trembling tone“Could you show
They went back to the winery and had late dinner. Martin went out with Jacob and it made Stephanie worried a bit. She then went to Leah, asking about what she had talked before with Jacob. Stephanie found that Jacob found out many things about her visit to the winery, her story about Martin who keeps hurting her by going to Chicago, all her sad and tearful times whenever she was in the winery to her story with Luke, after Leah got forced by Martin to tell Jacob all the truth that she has been hiding from him in the past 2 years. It was quite late when she noticed that Martin hadn't come back to the bedroom. She leaned in the bed, waiting for him as she was thinking what to say later when Martin asked her questions.Outside, Martin and Jacob went to the winery’s patio.“So….” Martin said quickly as they seated
