Clara’s pov conts
i took a deep breath as i walked out of a.g.h.c’s complex . i headed to R.D hospitals.
I arrived. It’s really late. I walked past the guards and ran into Ryan’s room. He was still unconscious. He was not awake yet. What should I do? I laid my face on his chest and slept off.
???????????
someone tapped me. I opened my eye it was Ryan’s mom.
” mom
” let’s go home
“but
“quickly.
I nodded and picked my bag. We entered the car and headed off to Mr Dervante’s house. Wow isn’t this the prettiest thing. I didn’t even know when I smiled.
We walked out out of the car and she hugged me deeply. Just what I needed.
” congrats Anna
” thanks.
I held her tightly as she made me miss my mom. I want to see my mom so badly. Finally I let her go and she took my hand and we walked inside. Mr, Dervantes was taking a glass of wine. He stood up and hugged me tightly
” sugar pie
I smiled and he kissed both sides of my cheek. His wife took my right hand and the husband took my left hand.
” honey I want to take her into her room
“No we need to talk business, let her be
“but she’s tired
” are we going to fight over Anna?
” let her be
“honey let her be.
I smiled, Anna! This family really loves you, I wonder if they would love me too.
I wonder if they would love me as Clara.
Finally Mrs Dervantes won, she dragged me into a room
“That’s Ryan’s room
I smiled
” relax! Don’t come out again.
“yes mum
“ok.
She rushed out, I saw Ryan’s picture and I smiled. My dream husband. I touched the bed and I opened his fridge. I miss you Ryan, I miss you so much. I fell on his bed. it’s really late…I have an emergency board meeting tomorrow? I wonder what it is about.
Liam’s pov
I checked my time, 9:50. Where is this troublesome girl? Where is Lia? I can’t even concentrate. What if she went missing? Just then she called me with my other line
” sir ” she shouted
” madam tell me
” well! I can’t come home to you today
” what…..why ?
“well, you see there is too much traffic and i don’t see well at night when there are too many car lights.
” ok, are you close to home?
” no my house is far but i can trek to my friend’s place
” which friend? Raymond again?
“yes
” ahhh no never, bad idea.
“what?
” I said no, you can’t go, in fact you won’t go…don’t go …. am serious.
“but should I stay on the road
” am coming, stay there and text me the location
” ok quickly am hungry.
“better don’t go anywhere
“no am here.
I entered my car and took off. Ahhh why did I get annoyed when she mentioned Raymond? What’s going on with me? But seriously I hate hearing that Raymond all the time. Who is she to him anyway.
Soon I arrived the address, there she sat on the road block with both hands on her pretty face.
” hey boy girl
she lifted her face and smiled so beautifully. Her pretty set of teeth were visible. I told her not to move and she stayed right there. When was the last time I told a woman that and she obeyed? I walked out and she tapped the pavement for me to sit
” hey! Do you know who I am? How can you tell me….
she looked into my eyes and tapped the pavement again. I sat down I guess I was intoxicated by her sight.
” oppa I want to tell you something
” what? Tell me
” I like you” she said, shooting those ocean blue eyes into mine.
I smiled to myself for a while and looked at her face. I like this kind of girl, very free.
” uhh really?
” yes, very much. You are a kind person and assuming i knew how to date, i would have asked you to be my first boyfriend.” she used her cap to cover her face shyly.
I smiled again
” first boyfriend?
” yes .
“but what about Ray…
“oh he is my childhood friend and he has a girlfriend…. Lalisa. Not me.
I got happy. Why did I get happy ?
” oh that’s good” I said
” so oppa do you accept my likeness for you
I smiled again
” I will think about it” I said
she smiled
” quickly give a reply soon.
I smiled, just what I needed to change you Lia.
” let’s go?
She nodded and stood up. We entered my car. Soon we arrived home. She walked blindly into the maids’ room i dragged her into my room Jeez she is so weightless just like clara.
” oppa did I do something wrong?
” well I bought these for you
she smiled and lifted the clothes then she frowned
” I really hate dressing like this
” why?
” well men will keep bringing out their tongues when they see me and they won’t let me rest. Men scare me
I smiled
” if you want me to accept your likeness, you should not do what I hate
“You hate me?
“no your dress sense.
she pulled her jean up to her tummy with her hand there
” ahhhh , but what if I change? Will you accept my likeness then?
” yes , for sure.
“Ok! I will change.
She packed the clothes and ran away with it. Lia I don’t hate anything about you but i just want to make you better..
I dropped on my bed and slept off. Finally someone is making me smile every minute.
Early the next morning. I walked out and saw a girl facing the pool. She wore a pretty gown. Hmmm is that Lia?
“Lia?
She turned. Holy shit! she wore a pair of simple girly slippers and a blue gown. The breeze moved her gown and her hair simultaneously.” Liam stop drooling” were the words I said to myself as I almost fell from the stairs
“oppa watch your steps
“I wasn’t falling Lia i was just trying to…….strike a pose
she smiled
” thank you” I said
” for what?
” for looking pretty
she smiled
” will you accept my likeness now?
“so you can rush out and change?
she smiled.
I looked at the text my secretary sent. Omg I almost forgot about the party
” Lia will you walk me to a party?
“me?
“yes you
” why me?
“I have no other choice
she smiled
“but am not mature or cultured or packaged. I will embarrass you.
“no problem.I love embarrassments
she smiled
“so will you go?
“yes
” Ok.
we walked out
Rachel’s pov
Clara walked into the general meeting looking good as always. She took a seat and opened the file across her table………
” please proceed.” Clara said looking up at the crowd of shareholders.
“it’s about our lockout from Chicago” M.D said.
” we have been locked down for too long. We can’t get the hospital back again” Mr Choi said
“what’s more, we are facing huge amount of losses. Our doctors and nurses who were forcefully sent home are pleading for remuneration which we can’t give.” Mr Gu said
“Yes Anna! How can we pay them when they are not working? The hospital was locked out for crying out loud.” Mr. Kang said
” but most of them had registered the case with the Labour Union. If it gets to government, then we might be forced to pay them.” Mr Han said
” and if we pay all of them like this we will incure more losses.” the accountant said
” what is the way forward my lady?” Mr Choi asked
” yes! What shall we do?.” director asked
” the problem will be solved. For now the meeting is adjourned.’ Clara stood up and walked out.
I rushed after her.
” madam where are you heading to?
just then Mr Dervantes walked out
“Anna get ready. You are going on a trip with me
” what! Trip to …..
“trip to Chicago. If you want to solve this problem then you need to take a good look at it. I have a business issue to discuss in Chicago. Thank God i won’t travel alone. Pack my dear.
“ok dad.
Clara’s pov
I headed home and Rachel helped me pack. i smiled. Ryan! Breaking news! Your dad is so cute and as it stands now, it seems I don’t love you anymore. it’s your dad I want. Hahaha crazy Clara. Trip to Chicago, I have never been there before. Ryan wake up so I can tell you how it was.
Soon I arrived at Mr. Dervantes’ house and met Mr. Dervantes. He was ready..
We used Mr Dervantes’ private jet and off we went to Chicago.
Lia’s pov
it’s night. It’s time for the party. I opened my door just to see a crowd of women
” uhmmm who are you?
” thank you for saving us the stress of knocking
“what
” we are here to help you get ready for the party.
” oh ok.
I let them come in. I sat on the bed and they made me up. Minutes later, they dressed me up. I looked gorgeous and expensive. I walked out to Liam. He looked sweet. He smiled at me
“you look pretty. Are you ready?
” yes
” Ok.
he took my hand and we both entered the car.
“sir who is partying?
“the president’s daughter
“what?
“yes
” what’s that her name again……Kendal?
“no that’s her cousin
” uhmmmmm Gabriella
“yes perfect
“I smiled
soon we arrived. Liam took my hand and I walked out of the car. I smiled moving my hair sweetly.
People greeted Liam with hugs and kisses. They just touched me. Rich people touched me too. I feel.so Important. Omg! isn’t that Kendal Thompson. She is here. She always took pictures with the president’s child. She smiled and walked towards us. Her dad is rich.
Soon she got closer and hugged Liam. she gently kissed his cheeks.
” my love
Liam smiled
“meet Lia
” what
“L…I..a .
” uhmmm who is her dad?
Wow! My dad is a nobody. No need. She is so proud. She looked at me with so much disgust.
” Kendal is that a question?
“sorry! Hi Lia .. whatever, am Kendal
daughter of Zach Thompson
I nodded.
“nice meeting you miss
” all yours
what! All mine?
” Liam can we talk?
” now
“just a few minutes please
“uhmmmmm Lia?” Liam said
” it’s ok. I’m fine
” ok…one minute.” he added
I nodded.
she smiled
He walked out with her. She must be his girlfriend. No wonder he won’t accept my likeness. I took a deep breath. Just then someone tickled my waist from behind. I turned and omg it was Dylan. Our poor friend who didn’t know his mom was rich until she took him away and he never visited. Not even the field.
” Dylan!!” I shouted
he smiled and hugged me
” pumpkin. Don’t tell me your real mum is rich too
“No ,I came with my boss
” U look like a girl lia, finally!
I knocked his head and he carried me up.
I smiled
” Dylan you look so expensive wow.” I touched his suit. Almost removing it.” he smiled
“Lia you need to see my car
“Really? Do you have a car now?
” yes
” quickly let’s see it
He took my hand and we both ran out of the hall laughing
Liams pov
Ahhh I can’t belive she was hugging a man like that. He even carried her up, nonsense.
“Liam
” ahhh shut…… yes
“Liam are you mad because you saw her with a man?
” why will I be mad?
” I thought you said she is just a friend who was bored so you took her out.
“yes, that’s it.
“No, you like her.
“no I don’t
“good, cos I don’t like the way you look at her.
Just then both of them walked out again smiling. Lia wore his suit jacket on top of her gown. This sight is so annoying.
if she is going to stay here with a man we better not stay at all. Nonsense, we better go home where I am the only man she is going to see.
“Kendal bye
“what
“am leaving
“Ok
Lia’s pov

” Dylan what does your real mum do?
“businesses, rich ones
” wow” I clapped my hands together smiling
“if you see our house…it’s so big just like that field man’s house
” wow amazing.
” you should come visiting soon.
I smiled and nodded. Just then Liam touched my hand. I turned.
” oh sir. Dylan. This is the person I told you about .
” hi am Dylan” my friend said but Liam didn’t reply
“ahhh whatever. Lia let’s go” Liam replied.
” sir, but we just….
“Lia am not feeling fine, I feel… ouch!” he screamed. I got scared
“what! Are you okay sir?
“let’s go already, I will be fine if we go.
” ok , sorry, let’s go quickly” I said removing Dylan’s jacket from my body and gave it to him.
“Lia see you later. Give me your number” Dylan said
” no she has no phone” Liam replied sharply
” hahaha , sir I have a….
” ahhh my sickness worsened, Lia keeps delaying
” sorry, sorry, sir lets go, Dylan next time” I dragged Liam’s hand and we walked out. Dylan shouted
“Lia where do you live?
” well I live downtown. That estate across……
Liam used his hand to cover my mouth.
” oppa
” stop giving personal information, the world is not safe. Let’s go quickly!
