Tiana ran out of the hotel in tears and she hurriedly hitched a cab.Tiana wiped her tears as she caught a glimpse of the driver looking at her through the rear view mirror.She bit her lip as she angrily blinked back her tears.
"Where to miss?"the driver asked
Tiana thought for a minute, who could she go to?She had no one except....her friend.
After contemplating for a moment she gave directions to the driver and the driver drived towards the place she mentioned.
Tiana looked at the scenery outside,she hoped her friend would forgive her.Tiana's eyelids got heavy and she tiredly closed them.
"We're here miss"Tiana was awaken by the driver.Tiana thanked the driver as she quickly payed him,thankfully she had a few dollars on her.Tiana entered the building and got into the elevator.The elevator stopped at level 9 and she walked towards the familiar door.
Aurora had just finished eating her lunch when there was a knock on the door.
'Who could that be?'she asked herself as she went to open the door.Seeing who it was,she opened her mouth to say something but Tiana threw herself into her arms as she sobbed like a little baby.Without asking any questions,she silently hugged her friend as she cried her eyes out.
"Thats right,let it all out"Aurora said as she patted Tiana's back.
"Im.....sorry...*hiccups*....you were....were...*hiccups*..right about....him..he..he..wuwuwuwu"Tiana cried even more.
Aurora gently patted her back and waited until Tiana calmed down.
"Im sorry Rora,you were right about him"Tiana sniffed as she looked at Aurora guiltily.
"Dont cry anymore,he's not worth your tears"Aurora said as she kissed her friend's cheek
"Do you want to know what happened?"Tiana asked
"I do,but i wont ask since you dont look like you want to talk about it"Aurora said
"No its fine,i want to tell you.As you know,i went to Thailand to see my parents a few days ago.I was supposed to have been back tomorrow but today is Jaden's birthday.I wanted to surprise him so i told him I'd be back tomorrow.I found the hotel he was at and hid in the closet planning to surprise him.But instead,it was me who was surprised.He came into the room,but he was not alone,he was with another girl.They started kissing and the girl said they should shower before they did 'it'.I took the chance to leave when they were in the shower and you were the only person i could go to.Im sorry i didnt listen to you when you warned me about him"Tiana said
Aurora sighed,she knew that guy was trouble from the first day she saw him.Three months ago,Tiana had started seeing Jaden but she objected their union after she saw him.Aurora and Tiana had fought at that time,it had been so bad that Tiana stopped talking to her,claiming that Aurora didnt want to see her happy.It had been a bit over two months since they last talked and saw each other.Aurora had missed her friend terribly during the past two months.
"Just promise me we will never fight because of some guy again"Aurora said
"I promise"Tiana smiled as she crossed her heart.Aurora was happy that she and Tiana were now on good terms.
Aurora and Tiana spent the whole day catching up.Very soon,it was nighttime and Tiana went to her room.
She and Aurora had lived in the same apartment since high school ended but she had moved in with Jaden after she fought with Aurora.Tiana looked at her room and smiled before throwing herself onto the bed.
Aurora went to her room and ran a warm bath for herself,she wanted to soak in the water for a bit.Aurora slid in the bath as the warm water soaked her body.Aurora dried her hair after bathing and wore her pj's before climbing onto her bed.Within a few minutes,her eyelids got heavy and she closed her eyes,entering a heavy dream.....
The following morning,Aurora woke up extra early as she had to head to work.She left breakfast for Tiana and she headed for work after getting ready.Aurora worked as the Chief Director of the design department under a company called Shine .One of the biggest companies in America.Aurora earned a very good salary and lived at one of the best apartments in the city,which happened to be owned by Shine.
"Director Alderidge"Aurora ws greeted by Summer,her personal assistant as soon as she entered her office.
"How do you do Summer?"she asked as she settled down
"Im doing great,i have been informed to inform you that we will have a new CEO in the upcoming days"Summer reported
Aurora raised her head
"A new CEO?"she asked
"Yes our current CEO is retiring,apparently its his grandson who will be taking Over"Summer nodded
Aurora shrugged
"As long as the new CEO knows what he's doing."
During lunchtime,Aurora's phone rang.
"Aurora dear"Aurora heard her mother's voice as soon as she answered her phone
"What do you want?"Aurora asked
"Don't be like that,anyways your brother is coming back from overseas and i think its about time you two meet each other"Lisa said
"Half brother"Aurora corrected
"Same thing,anyways he's coming back soon and i want you kids to get along"Lisa continued
"Im busy,besides what do you want us to talk about?Need i remind you you were a mistress that broke his family?Why would he get along with me,a reminder of his father's betrayal and the reason for his sister's death?"Aurora asked with a bit of sympathy in her voice
"Dont refer to me as a mistress,i am your father's legal second wife.And his sister's death has nothing to do with you"Lisa said
"Mother,it was your affair with father that lead to his sister's death"Aurora said
"Its not my fault Hannah was too Weak to handle the truth and miscarried"Lisa said
"You're evil,im ashamed to call you my mother"Aurora said as she hung up the phone.Aurora looked at her phone and sighed.Her mother had been a maid at the Lewis household and her mother seduced Mark,who was married.Her mother got pregnant but at that time Mark had a son who was about six years old.Sophie,Mark's wife was seven months pregnant but due to the shock,she went into labor.Her daughter was born premature but she only lived for a few hours before she took her last breath.Mark's father,who was automatically Aurora's grandfather was angry about Mark's infedility.Mark always yearned for a daughter and Lisa,who was pregnant with a girl threatened to abort the baby if Mark didnt marry her.Lisa claimed she didnt want to be a single parent to an illegitimate child.Mark,who didnt want to lose another daughter married her
Surprisingly,Aurora didn't grow up by her father's side.She was raised by her aunt,her father visited her a few times.Not more than ten times in the past years.Aurora had only seen her family from her father's side once,at that time she was really young.But unexpectedly,she didnt get to see her so called 'brother',she wasn't even sure she wanted to see him.Lisa only came to visit Aurora whenever she wanted.She would bring toys and stuff but Aurora knew her mother was only doing that to satisfy her father.She lived with her aunt and uncle,who were her second parents.Her aunt couldn't have children so she treated Aurora like her own.After high school,Aurora had to beg them to let her live away from them as they didnt want to let her live away from them.
Aurora sighed as she tucked her golden hair behind her ears.Aurora actually knew nothing about her father's side of the family except that they were rich.She didn't know how rich they were and she didnt care.She didnt want to get involved with the rich people's nonsense.When Aurora got home she found Tiana all dressed up.
"Where are you going?"Aurora asked
"Not 'me' we"Tiana said applying lipstick
"What do you mean we?"Aurora asked
"We are going to the club to let loose"Tiana said
"Hell no,not happening."Aurora disagreed
"Come on Rora,just for today.I promise not to ask you ever again.Just taking it as my im sorry gift"Tiana said as she looked pleadingly at Aurora
"Definitely not"Aurora shook her head
"Please Rora,besides you're not going to work tomorrow"Tiana persisted
Aurora sighed
"Fine"she agreed
"OMG,you're the best"Tiana happily hugged Aurora as she pulled her to her bedroom
"Time for a makeover"Tiana said happily
"I hate you"Aurora said and Tiana laughed.Tiana started fixing Aurora,lastly she handed her a dress and told her to go put it on.Aurora put on the dress and when Tiana saw her,she was astonished.The dress she had given Aurora was a black neither short nor long dress that accumulated her curvaceous body,The dress had thin shoulder straps and the dress revealed her beautiful collarbones and showed a small patch of her beautiful chest that glistened,Topped with her curled golden hair and Sea blue eyes,Aurora looked enchanting and alluring at the same time.
"You look hella sexy"Tiana complimented
"This is the first and last time i do something like this"Aurora said as she put on her black heels
Tiana smiled and pulled Aurora's hand as they drove to the club.Unlike other clubs,this one was clean and safe.There were no illegal substances used.The club didnt have loud music,instead it had soothing music that made one feel at peace.
Samuel stood outside the car,waiting for his young Master to appear.After what felt like an eternity,Andrew appeared.
"Young Master Lewis"he bowed his head respectfully
Andrew glanced at Samuel and gave a slight nod.
Andrew got in the backseat and took out his laptop.
"Master Lewis was hoping you would come to the mansion to pay them a visit"Samuel said looking at Andrew through the rear view mirror
"Im busy"Andrew said without raising his head.
Samuel sighed,he knew it wasn't because he was busy but because,he didnt want to see them.
"Second Madam said she would like you to meet your sister"Samuel reported
"My sister is dead,which sister is she talking about?"Andrew said
Samuel sighed heavily
In all the years,Andrew had never acknowledged his half sister.
"Where to?"Samuel asked
"The villa"Andrew said as his gold rimmed glasses reflected his cold eyes.
'Tsk,she wants me to meet her daughter?That woman really is delusional'Andrew thought to himself.
Upon arriving at the villa,Andrew received a call from Aiden.
"Andy my man,i heard you're back in town,lets meet"Aiden said taking a sip of his vodka
"Im busy"Andrew said coldly
.Aiden however,seemed used to his attitude and continued
"Come on Andy,just for tonight.You wont be able to have free time since you're taking over you're old man's company."
Andrew reluctantly agreed and drove his Rolls-Royce Phantom to the club.
"Young Master Lewis"The guards at the door bowed respectfully
Andrew entered the club and went to the VIP lounge where he found Aiden,who was surrounded by girls waiting for him.
"Look who we have here"Aiden said with a grin
Andrew ignored him and sat down with his legs crossed.
"Guess who i saw?"Aiden said looking at Andrew.
Andrew looked at him indifferently and Aiden sighed
"Fine,i will tell you jeez.I saw Kayla,and she wasn't alone"Aiden said looking at Andrew,hoping for a reaction but saw none
"So?"Andrew questioned with his eyebrow raised
"She's pregnant,i think about seven months"Aiden said
Andrew eyes flashed but was only for a moment before his eyes turned cold.Even so,it was enough for Aiden to see.
"Do you still love her?"Aiden asked
Andrew thought for a minute
Did he still love her?Of course not,why would he love someone who betrayed him?Why would he love someone who broke him in the worst way possible.If anything,get wanted to make her suffer the way she made him suffer.
"What's there to love Aiden?I've moved on"Andrew said
"But how can you say you moved on when you haven't been in a relationship since your break up?"Aiden asked
"Not being in a relationship doesn't mean i haven't moved on.Im simply not in a relationship because i could not bring myself to love another woman after Kayla's betrayal"Andrew answered as he took a sip of vodka
"Its fine if you still love her.I mean,she is your baby mama after all"Aiden said
"The baby she decided to get rid off without even letting me know of its existence.She killed my baby and you expect me to still love her?"Andrew said coldly,his eyes crimson from anger
Andrew stood up angrily and walked away
"Andrew bro,i meant no Harm"Aiden pleaded
"F*ck off"Andrew said coldly as he walked away.
Aiden sighed and sat down because he knew he had angered Andrew by mentioning Kayla's betrayal.Andrew walked out of the lounge,his face ice cold.
"You ready to have some fun tonight beauty?" Andrew heard a lecherous voice and turned towards its direction.
A pot bellied man was holding a drunk girl in his arms.
"You....let...me go.My friend...is a cop...she'll arrest..your sorry..sorry ass..."the girl said sluggishly
"By the time she catches me,you would have long been ruined,hehehe"the man said as he looked at the girl with lust in his eyes
Andrew looked at the man with cold eyes.He should be walking away since this was none of his business right?But he wanted to help,not because he was attracted to the girl but because this club was owned by Aiden.If a girl got raped here,the club would suffer significally.
"Let her go"Andrew said coldly,walking in their direction
The man looked at Andrew wanting to shout at him,but when he saw who it was,the words got stuck.
"Young Master Lewis"he bowed
"I wont repeat myself"Andrew said
The man Donald,happened to be a CEO of some small company.He had come here looking for a girl to take home like usual,but who knew he would come across Andrew.
Donald tightened his grip on the girl's waist.In all the beauties he had slept with,this was the most beautiful.He wasn't willing to let his prey go.
"You don't want to?"Andrew asked as he stepped closer
Donald swallowed his saliva
"No,no its just that my daughter got too drunk and im taking her home with me"Donald said not giving up
Andrew laughed,but his laugh was ice cold,sending shivers down Donald's spine
"Do i look like a fool to you?"Andrew asked
"Of course not.You are the smartest man alive,did i mention the most handsome?"Donald said,trying to flatter Andrew but alas it was all in vain
"Will you let her go by yourself or should i help you?"Andrew asked
Donald,left with no other choice handed the girl over to Andrew.
"Young Master Lewis,please forgive me..i drank too much tonight dont...."
"Scram"Andrew said and Donald fled in fear
The girl fell into his hands and he took a good look at her face.She really was a beauty,no wonder a pervert like Donald wanted her.
Now,what should he do with her?
Andrew looked at her,she seemed to be unconscious.
He patted her face and she dazingly opened her eyes,revealing her foggy sea blue eyes.
"Im..telling you...my friend...is..a..a...a..cop.."she said,unaware of her surroundings.She closed her eyes while still murmuring something.
Andrew sighed heavily.He carried her and walked towards his car.Normally,he wouldn't do this,why he decided to do this tonight,even he didnt know.He placed her on the back seat and made sure she wouldn't fall.He silently drove to his villa,looking at the girl from time to time.When Andrew arrived,thankfully Samuel and the other workers had gone to their chambers.Andrew called Sarah and asked her to help clean the girl.
Andrew went to his study as Sarah changed the girl.He sat down and opened his laptop,although it was open,his mind was not here.
Kayla was pregnant?
Andrew laughed coldly,not only did she kill his child,she cheated on him with his younger brother,got pregnant with his child and kept the baby,now she was pregnant again.
Andrew felt a pang in his heart,not because he still loved Kayla but how she had killed his child.By the time he had found out,it was too late.
"How could you Kayla?!"he was livid when he found out
"Im sorry okay,im just,not ready to be a mom.And you are so busy with work,you wouldn't have been able to provide me emotional support"Kayla defended herself
"You're talking bullsh*t,you didnt information me of your pregnancy and claim i wasn't going to be able to support you emotionally?Are you f*cking insane?"he yelled his eyes red from anger
"Please calm down,im sorry okay"Kayla said stepping closer and holding his hand
"You killed my child!Dont fucking tell me to calm down!"
"Foetus okay,stop saying child!"Kayla yelled but the next thing she knew,she was sent to the floor.Kayla blinked in disbelief as tears streamed down her face.
If not for the pain on her face caused by the slap and the metallic taste of blood she tasted in her mouth,she wouldn't have believed that Andrew hit her.
There was a knock on the door,bringing Andrew back to reality.
"Come in"he said flatly and Sarah entered the study.
"She's already asleep"Sarah said
Andrew was puzzled by the 'she' she was referring to till he remembered the woman he saved at the club
"Anything else?"he asked when he saw that Sarah hadn't left yet.
Sarah took a deep breath before asking
"Who is she?"
Andrew would have ignored this question if he was asked by someone else but he couldn't ignore her.Sarah was like a second mom to him.She was his nanny since birth and had cared for him like he was her own son,thus gaining a special place in his heart.She knew everything about him,including Kayla.She probably thought that the girl he brought home meant something to him,alas they were just strangers.
Sighing,Andrew adjusted his glasses and looked at Sarah before telling her everything.
Sarah looked at Andrew and sighed as she walked back to her room.She had hoped that the girl Andrew brought home was his girlfriend but it seemed she was mistaken.But Sarah was puzzled,Andrew normally wouldn't do something like this.Did he maybe have some feelings for the girl?Sarah hoped so.
Andrew worked late at night,in just a few days,he was going to take over his grandfather's company.After Mark's infedility,Edward,Andrew's grandfather made it clear that he was not going to let Mark take over his company thus,the responsibility fell on Mark's elder son Andrew.
By the time Andrew was done,it was already dawn.He went to his bedroom and tried to sleep.During his sleep,he had a frown on his face,showing that he was not having a pleasant dream.
Andrew woke up not mire than three hours later and he decided to go check on the girl.Surprisingly she seemed to have just woken up.
"Where am i?Did you.kidnap me?Why did you bring me here?"the girl asked as she retreated and held the quilt closely as if afraid he would do something to her
Andrew rubbed his brows and explained why he brought her here.The girl seemed to be less scared and looked at him with her sea blue eyes,causing his heart to skip a beat.He looked away quickly and wondered what was wrong with him.
"Did you...change me?"the girl asked as she looked at her changed attire,last night,Sarah had ordered some clothes for the girl.
"I asked someone to change you,dont worry,she was female"Andrew said making her heaven a sigh of relieve
"Whats your name?"he asked
The girl looked at him before she answered
"Aurora"
