As I continued to stare at him, the threat of that day replayed inside my head.

He said the next time he came, it was going to be my funeral. And this was the first time I had seen him since the time he slapped me across my cheek.

“Ack”. I swallowed the invisible lump in my throat as his eyes met mine. It was sudden and made me feel like my spirit jumped out of my body and returned.

I immediately turned my face away from him, but when I glanced in his direction, my eyes widened when I saw hi

  • The Naive Lady Is Gone: No Longer The Docile Fool   Chapter 79) Apologizing.

    The next day, I stood on my balcony. My face, straight, with dark circles beneath my eyes. I was not able to sleep well last night. Combined with that old bastard who kept on trying to reach me and ask for my help, simply because I switched on my business cell phone. Though, thanks to him, I had to switch the cell phone off and toss it aside in the drawer. He was wasting my time. If he needed me to save his life, he should present the 30 percent company shares to me already. I knew he had signed the document I presented him that day, but it was useless, since he was no longer the chairman of the company. If only he were still the chairman, I would have gone after the shares myself. With a sigh, I dialed Nicholas' phone number on my personal cell phone. After only a few seconds of ringing, he answered my phone call, and his voice came through, “Are you calling to ask for Cole?”. He asked, but that was not the reason I had called him. “No. I want you to do something else for me.

  • The Naive Lady Is Gone: No Longer The Docile Fool   Chapter 78) Messed with the wrong soul/ Double.

    Georgina's pov, “Give love a second chance? Ha!”. I stared at my reflection in the mirror as I said. My eyes darkened, and I clenched my fists so tightly, to the extent I felt my fingernails penetrate my flesh. I also gritted my teeth so tightly and tasted blood in my tongue. “I will never fall in love. Not in this life and never in the next life”. I said behind gritted teeth, as my gaze fixed on my red eyes in the mirror. A few seconds passed, and I tried to calm down, but it was not working, making me understand that my mood tonight had been ruined, and there was no way I would be able to sleep peacefully. I ran my fingers through my hair. “Screw you, Clara”. I muttered, before I walked out of my bedroom upon grabbing my cell phone and my facial mask from the table, including something else. Clara had succeeded in making me angry with no way to calm myself down. As I walked down the hallway, I kept on running my fingers through my hair several times in a row, until I arrive

  • The Naive Lady Is Gone: No Longer The Docile Fool   Chapter 77) Frustrated son.

    “What are you doing here?”. I asked Lily, with my voice sounding more like a whisper.I could not risk either Aunt Clara or Aunt Maddie hearing my voice and understanding that I was eavesdropping on them. “What? I am also curious just like you, Lewis”. She said to me, and all I did was shake my head at her, before I returned my attention to the adults. “So, what is it, Clara? What is so important you want to tell me but can't say in the presence of the kids”. Aunt Maddie said to Aunt Clara. Yes. This was the moment I was waiting for. I needed some answers. I heard someone sigh, before Aunt Clara said, “It's actually nothing much, Maddie. The thing is, I simply told Gina to give love a second chance, but she got angry at me and even sent me out of the kitchen. Can you imagine? Did I say anything wrong to her?”. I almost slipped and fell to the ground after listening to what Aunt Clara said. In an instant, I found myself staring at Lily, who was equally staring back at me in disbel

  • The Naive Lady Is Gone: No Longer The Docile Fool   Chapter 76) Eavesdropping.

    Lewis's pov,5pm, It was 5pm, and we were all seated around the dining table.Me, Aunt Clara, Aunt Maddie, Lily, and of course, my Mom. For some reason, the atmosphere was awkwardly silent and tense. I knew that the atmosphere ought to be silent, but I could feel that something was off somewhere. I have stared at my Mom and Aunt Clara several times, and I figured that something must have happened between them. It was actually easy to guess. After all, they were sitting next to each other and had avoided each other's gazes every single time. I know it was not right for me to be nosy, but, I don't think I can help it. I took a deep breath, before I stopped eating and left the fork in my hand on the table before me. “Are you full already? But you barely touched your food”. Mother said to me, and right at that moment, all eyes were fixed on me. Since it had come to that, there was no turning back. “Mom, did you and Aunt Clara have an argument?”. I asked them, as I could not keep

  • The Naive Lady Is Gone: No Longer The Docile Fool   Chapter 75) Give love another chance?

    Georgina's pov, “Where is Maddie?”. I asked as I walked down the corridor. I have not seen her since the moment I returned from the hospital. I halted, then placed my hands on my hips. "Did she, perhaps, also have a date of her own?”. I asked. Then again, I knew that it wasn't impossible for that to happen. I decided to search for her later, as I walked into the kitchen to prepare some delicacies for Lewis and Lily. I felt that they must be hungry. Just when I entered the kitchen, I turned behind me the moment I felt someone else's presence. It was Clara. “You. Don't sneak up on me like that again, Clara”. I said to her, slightly frowning my brows as I stared at her. “Tsk. Oh please. You didn't even look surprised”. Clara said to me, before she walked past me and began to look around the kitchen. She suddenly stopped and stared at me. “Haven't you started cooking yet, Gina? I am hungry”. She asked me, while rubbing her palm gently on her growling stomach.I raised an eyebrow

  • The Naive Lady Is Gone: No Longer The Docile Fool   Chapter 74) Teach him a lesson/ Another date.

    “Mom, are you really serious about this?!”. Lewis exclaimed. His eyes were wide open in shock, before I saw him clench his fists tightly. “Mom, they are clearly the ones at fault and ought to apologize to us!”. Lewis added. It was easy to tell that he wasn't happy about what I had told him about. It was written all over his face. “Exactly, Mom. He- that jerk. He was the one who approached me. I did nothing wrong to him”. Lily said and supported Lewis with a nod, making me hold onto her hands. My eyes shifted from Lily's side to Lewis’ side as I repeated the same question that I had asked them earlier. “So, if both of you were me, are you going to teach that jerk's father a lesson or not?”. I asked them.“Yes. I will teach him a lesson”. Lewis answered, while Lily nodded at me in agreement, the moment I stared at her for an answer. I smiled as I placed my palms on their heads and ruffled their hair a bit. “It is settled then. I will teach that man a lesson and make sure that his ki

    I arrived in my bedroom and locked the door.With heavy steps, I walked to the drawer and took my mother's picture, before I went and sat on the floor next to my bed. With my knees close to my chest, I wrapped my arms around them, also hugging my mom's picture. “It's finally over”. I said, as I r

    “What?”. This word slipped out of my lips as I was shocked by her words. “Can- can you repeat what you just said to me?”. I requested, while hoping that I had misheard her, and that my ears must have deceived me.But it seemed like my question made her angry at me, because she frowned and wrapped

    Marvin's pov, “Did you threaten him with that on purpose, Boss? Are you really serious about wanting to marry his daughter in return for waving off his debts?”.“I mean, why would you do that? Have you forgotten about the smug look on his face when he bragged about the new project his company was

    Georgina's pov, “Do you, Georgina Hale, take Marvin Hart to be your lawfully wedded husband?”. “Do you vow to love, obey and cherish him until death do you apart?”. ‘This- this can't be happening to me’. Cold beads of sweat formed on my forehead as I trembled within and tried to look na
