Alexander wanted to tell his son that he already sold the Ace Wine Corp to Eloisa. She visited him in his office to talk about it. She also told her father-in-law to stay quiet to his son Kent if he wanted to keep the Kings and Queens Hotel.
” Is Gale bothering you? He’s doing his thing for his business. Don’t make a fuss on a matter to your brother. Solve your problem Kent. You’re not a child anymore!”, Alexander taught his son what to do.
Kent can’t believe that no one wanted to help him even his wife.
“I’ll do it alone, dad. Don’t worry. Bye.” He said and turned off his phone.
He can’t sleep well tonight so he instructed Dilan’s nanny what to do when Austin woke up.
Kent decided to go somewhere to have fresh air. His life is now in chaos after he left Lucy and came back to her life after ten years and fooled her again. He used her to get pregnant and take their son from her.
He wanted to make everything right but how can he put it back when he’s the one who shattered her life into pieces. Now, that she’s gone, he’s still haunted by her in the presence of Greta.
Cassandra POV
I was on my way home when I saw a familiar face outside Stevens Bar. I went outside to buy groceries since my fridge is out of stock. I put down the plastic bags I’m holding and slowly rub my eyes to confirm if he was Lucy’s ex-lover Kent Oliver Stone.
“Wait, it’s him! What is he going at this hour?”, I mumbled after seeing him went inside.
I made an idea. Since my mission is to make the couple fight and to let Kent know that his wife was meeting up with his little brother alone.
I went inside too and I noticed that he’s sitting at the table alone. I walked close to the wine bar area and I ordered one mixed drink. He was so serious on his one beer bottle and so am I. I noticed that he was about to go so I followed him. He’s already at the entrance of the bar when he stops and holds my arms.
” Are you stalking me?”, he asked me with his fierce eyes.
I started to make an act.
“Yeah. I think I saw you somewhere. You were Gale’s brother, right?”, I set a brave face towards him.
After hearing me, he loosened his grip and finally let me go.
” How do you know him? Are you his stalker too?”, he looks confused.
I walked outside and he followed me. I took my groceries near the bouncer.
I took a deep breath and act like I was mad at him.
“Why you’re glaring at me, huh?”, he uttered again.
I didn’t want to make it this long so I decided to tell him that I am Greta’s friend.
” You think I’m crazy? If you wanna know who I am, let me tell you that I am Greta Stone’s friend.” My eyes flickered after saying it.
I saw Kent’s eyes widened after telling him that I know Greta in person. I saw his reaction how he was surprised and how he wanted more about her.
“Wait? Oh, I’m sorry. I don’t know you so I thought you’re some stalker, you know!”, he explained but I just shrugged my shoulders and smile at him
” It’s okay. I saw you in the article with them last month. You attended the Zeus Palace Anniversary event, right? You have a cute son and a pretty wife!”, I said but he just didn’t react about it.
“I don’t want to tell you this kind of stuff but how long did you know Greta? She looks like someone I knew but I think she’s not her. I’m confused because your friend was kinda identical to my ex!”, he said.
We were outside the bar so I told him to go near his car so no one will suspect us. He agreed and I said everything that Lucy taught me to say about her background.
Kent’s face became disappointed.
” I’m so sorry to bother you but think it’s time for me to go.” He said.
“Sure. Sorry if I disturb you. Anyway, I’m Cassandra. Nice to meet you!”, I said before he left.
” Same here. Here is my calling card. If you need any help, you can contact me.” I didn’t expect that he will give me his calling card.
Yes, my plan is about to start. I’ll do it tonight and this would be exciting.
“Just wait Eloisa and asshole Gale, we are coming to bet you,” I mumbled after waving my hands at Kent inside his car.
