"Andrea is not who you think she is"
"And who is she?" Liam asked,his voice dripping with sarcasm
Liam was very well aware of Luciana's tactics to separate him from Andrea and he wasn't going to let that happen
Liam was already earning Andrea's forgiveness and he could bear to lose her again
"I'm not sure yet but I think I'm on to something big,she's hired to kill you" Luciana blurted
A loud chuckle erupted through the room
"Next,you'll tell me,she's the tooth fairy" Liam's voice dripped with sarcasm as he gently pushed Luciana out of the way and walked towards the door
"I forgave you for making me lose her the first time, if you do that again, I won't be able to comprehend what I'll do to you" Liam warned,his tone low and firm, his jaw clenched tightly as he walked out of the room, slamming the door behind him.
Luciana hesitated calling Liam back but she didn't
Luciana was shocked with the way Liam reacted, she had expected him to ask questions but he didn't believe her enough to ask, Luciana couldn't blame him, Andrea had blinded him with deceit and lies, but Luciana is sure of what she heard and she would do everything in her power to protect Liam from Andrea, even if it's the last thing she does.
Luciana always thought Andrea was an harmless gullible blonde with a pretty face but Andrea proved her wrong last week.
Luciana was sent to charlotte's house to get a change of clothes for her,she was about to knock the door when the voices coming from inside made her stop…
"I don't care,I need results before next month" A masculine voice yelled,almost startling Luciana but she stood still , plastering her ear on the door,the cold wood sending a shiver down her spine
"Lucas,I'm trying my best"Andrea's shaky voice replied
Luciana wasn't inside but from Andrea voice, she could tell she was deep in tears
"Your best is not good enough,you've two months, bring me Liam's head or I'll deliver yours to him" The husky voice threatened, as the sound of footsteps emerged from inside, Luciana tiptoed away from the door and to the backyard, her heart pounding with adrenaline from all the tip toed running
Luciana pressed her back hard on the backyard walls, it's only when she heard the ignition of an engine, she released a breath, she had no idea she was holding.
Luciana's thoughts skyrocketed,the faint sound of Andrea's sobs playing in the background
Luciana couldn't believe what she had just heard: Liam's brother, Lucas and the women he loves, Andrea, were plotting to kill him.
Luciana gently made her way out of the backyard, saying silent prayers not to be spotted by Andrea.
…
"Liam,Liam"Andrea called out, opening the door and stepping inside the dark room
"I could have sworn,I saw him with Luciana come this way"Andrea said to herself as she tried to walk away but was caught by the hand and harshly tugged to the floor
Andrea fell with a thud, pain erupting through her senses
"Who is there?" Andrea hissed, trying to lift her self off the floor but was pushed back with more force than the last.
Panic set in as Andrea's eyes surveyed the room, she couldn't see anything,the room was completely dark
"I know all about your little plan"
"Luciana?" Andrea's voice echoed through the dark room,her eyes scanning where the voice came from.
"You know I expected less from you but I guess, I should never judge a book by its cover" The sound of footsteps bounced off the walls, Andrea raised her eye brows in alarm, her eyes trying to follow the sound of the footsteps but all she saw was darkness
"What're you talking about?" Andrea asked
Andrea was beyond confused, questions buzzing in her head
What was Luciana talking about?
Could she have managed to find out about her true intentions?
But that couldn't be possible, Andrea did so well in covering her tracks
"I know about the little scheme, you've with Lucas and I promise for as long as I live, I won't let you lay a finger on him"
Andrea couldn't stop the loud gasp that escaped her mouth
Andrea couldn't believe her ears, Luciana was the last person Andrea expected to find out but now that she knows, she is a threat that needs to be eliminated.
"Cut caught your tongue?" Luciana asked but this time she was closer to Andrea, so close, Andrea could smell her expensive cologne and make up
An idea popped into Andrea's head, squinting her eyes to find the door, her eyes stumbled upon a little hole, small pecks of light illuminating from outside of it, it wasn't bring enough to light up the whole room but it was bright enough to be spotted
"Liam would never love you, he's head over heels for me" Andrea blurted earning herself a hard slap from Luciana
Luciana's slap burned across Andrea's cheek, the taste of cake disappeared in an instant, replaced by the unmistakable metallic sting of blood. But,she didn't mind, if she was going to get out of here the winner, she needed to do everything in her power to ensure Luciana keeps hitting her because everyone would believe a bruised lady over one without bruises.
"What do you know about my Liam? You're nothing but a dirtbag that should be locked in a trash can" Luciana uttered bitterly
"Your Liam?" The sound of Andrea's laughter filled the room. "The same Liam that used you countless times? The same Liam that made it obvious that he would never want you?" More laughter escaped Andrea's chest
Anger clouded Luciana's vision not because Andrea had insulted her but because she was right, Liam had made it obvious he didn't want her, Luciana begged, offered Liam all her father's property but he still couldn't get his eyes off Andrea.
Liam only had eyes for Andrea, Liam even went as far as declining the offer to become the biggest and wealthiest company owner in the whole of Los Angeles because of Andrea.
Luciana's face went red in rage,her fist clenched ready to deliver a punch
"Deep down,you know he would never have eyes for you" A smirk tugged on Andrea's lips as a hard punch landed on her face, blood running down her nose
Andrea couldn't help but feel impressed, she always thought Luciana was a spoilt lady who had everything handed to her but the force in her punch tells Andrea other wise.
A punch as hard as that can only be through months of practice. Andrea thought to herself as another punch landed on her face, this one harder than the last, the impact making Andrea drop to the floor
Pain cursed through Andrea's veins, her eyes teary and her nose bleeding
Perfect.
Andrea gathered all the strength in her body and lifted herself up, running towards the small light, she twisted the knob and the door snapped opened, a huge ball of light filled Andrea's vision,the faint sound of music hang in the air
"Where do you think you're going? I'm not done with you" Luciana called from behind Andrea but Andrea's legs took off before Luciana could catch up to her.
Andrea ran as fast as she could, she only slowed down when she spotted Liam talking to Lucas
Exhausted and tired, Andrea used her last atom of strength to yell
"She's after me" Andrea's legs gave in and she collapsed to the floor with a loud thud
