****************************************
"Twinny, please calm down" Lucina said, getting down from the counter.
"Mind explaining what's happening here, because I seem to be seeing double" Lucas said.
Liam and Lucina locked eyes.
She went to turn off the gas before explaining everything to him.
Lucas can't even talk, he just kept looking at them shockingly. If he were to vent his anger on them, it would be a disaster, but he wasn't gonna do anything.
"Hey, Cas, you shouldn't be angry, okay? We love each other, and that's it. You can just get angry for days..." Lucina said, holding the hem of her cloth.
"So, now, you think what you did was right? Dating my best friend without my consent? Isn't that bad? And as for you, Liam, we've been friends since we were kids, and you kept it away from me. And the funniest part is that you stated Thatcher and Sydney are aware, except me" Lucas chuckled, and Liam bit his lips, regretting not telling him. He had been preparing for this day.
"I'm sorry, dude. I'm really sorry" Liam said, and Lucas glared at him causing him to look away.
"So, it's been years you guys have been dating without my consent?" he asked.
"Yeah" Lucina replied.
"So, will you accept us now?" Lucina trailed.
"Screw you both" Lucas said harshly before walking away.
"Twin bro, come eat some food!" Lucina shouted after him.
"Bro, wait up" Liam said, running after Lucas. He caught up with him outside.
"Hey" Liam called, blocking Lucas, who was almost getting into his car.
"What?" Lucas asked not interested to talk to him.
"Do you accept your sister and me being in a relationship?" Liam asked.
"Not my business, she's free to date anyone she likes" Lucas said, sarcastically.
"Oh, okay" Liam said, clamping his lips together.
"Should we go have fun at my club?" Liam suggested, scratching his hair.
"Go meet her, she needs you... not interested in having fun anymore" Lucas said, getting into his car.
"Okay, dude, bye!" Liam waved.

NEXT MORNING~
Tiara sat on Lucas's bed, having been called by a guard who informed her of Lucas's return. She had been searching for him since last night, but when she couldn't find him, she asked the guards if they knew his whereabouts and they told her, he had gone out so she told them to call her if he came back.
Lucas emerged from the bathroom, drying his hair. Their eyes met. He had just returned home this morning, after spending the night at one of his mansions immediately he left for Liam's estate.
"Where were you?" she asked, in aow voice.
"Somewhere" he replied, attempting to walk past her, but she blocked his path.
"You didn't eat the dinner I prepared last night" she mumbled.
"Because I'm not hungry" he replied curtly, not wanting to engage in any conversation.
"Liar, did I do something wrong?" she asked, her eyes welling up with tears, prompting a sigh from him.
"Just leave, I'll call you when I need you" he said, but she hugged him tightly.
"Tell me if I did something wrong" she muttered.
"So, Kieran is your childhood lover" he said, dropping the bombshell, and she froze.
"So, it's true" he added, noticing her stiffness.
"You went to his mansion yesterday and didn't tell me. He kissed you too" He accused, dropping another bombshell. Tiara's eyes widened as she quickly broke the hug.
"How-how did you know?" she stuttered, folding her palms together.
"I just know" he said simply.
"But I won't get mad at you because I don't feel like it. My heart doesn't want that" he said, and before she could blink, he pushed her against the wall, capturing her lips and like that he made love to her that morning.
3HRS LATER*
Lucas lay on the bed, engaged in a phone call with Wren, but Tiara was not with him. She had told him that Kieran wanted them to meet outside his estate, and to her surprise, Lucas had agreed to let her go.
"Are you okay now?" Lucas asked over the phone.
"Yes, boss, I'm fully okay, trust me" Wren said, prompting a scoff from Lucas.
"Rest well, and don't leave that hospital, I know you, Wren" Lucas ordered.
"But, boss, I'm okay" Wren protested.
"It's an order, Wren. Follow it" Lucas said firmly.
"Okay, boss" Wren replied.
"How is she?" Wren asked, but Lucas cut her off.
"Not your business" he said, ending the call. He already knew who Wren was referring to. He closed his eyes.
OUTSIDE~IN KIERAN'S CAR*
Tiara sat in the passenger seat, with Kieran. He parked his car not too far from Lucas Estate, the tinted windows concealed them from outside. Kieran has been asking her out but Tiara remained resistant.
"Please, Kieran, I really can't reciprocate your love. I'm sorry, I just can't. I love someone else. Please try to understand. We can be friends" Tiara said, locking eyes with Kieran.
"Friends? But I love you! What do you see in him? I'm handsome too, I'm rich, I'm caring. I don't want to ever let you go. Remember our childhood days? You said you liked me. I heard first love can't be forgotten, so why are you doing this now?" Kieran asked, his frustration growing.
"Try to understand, we were just kids then. I'm sorry, I just can't love you back anymore" Tiara said gently.
"Kids? You promised I would be your first boyfriend! Now it's Lucas, huh?" Kieran said, his voice filled with fury.
"Why do you hate him so much?" Tiara asked suddenly.
"I just hate him, that's it. I can't afford him having you. I just can't" Kieran said, his eyes glinting in anger.
"Please don't do anything bad just to have me" Tiara pleaded.
"I don't care, even if it means killing him. I would gladly do it" Kieran said, his eyes blazing with intensity, causing Tiara's eyes to widen in alarm.
"Don't, this isn't the little Kieran I once liked. Please don't turn into a bad person. If you do, I'll hate you forever. Please, don't kill for me. I can't love you back, so please don't" she uttered, her voice trembling as she palmed his face with her smooth hands.
A tear dropped from his eye.
"Why must he always have everything? Just why?" he muttered, his eyes filled with frustration and anger.
"I don't want to be the one who causes more fights between you and Lucas. I really don't. You said you don't want me to be sad, remember? You told me that, so don't make me feel hurt" she said, her voice pleading. He looked away from her, his jaw clenched.
"Please" she begged again, and he faced her. His eyes locked on her lips, and he gulped.
"Can I kiss you for the last time?" he asked shockingly, and before she could bat her lashes, he pressed his lips slowly on hers.
He kissed her hungrily, and she hesitated before kissing him back. He nibbled on her lower lip, slid his tongue inside her mouth, and she moaned softly.
When he knew this might be the last time he'd kiss her, he put all effort into it. He used both palms to hold her face, kissing her more deeply. When she couldn't take it anymore, breathless, she called his name in his mouth.
"Kieran-"
He broke the kiss slowly, and their lips made a soft popping sound. Their lips looked swollen and red. He let go of her face as she slowly regained control of her breath.
"Can you tell me why you both became rivals? I just want to know" she asked after recovering her breath.
He took a deep breath before resting back in his seat.
FLASHBACK>, TO THE DAY AVA AND LITTLE KIERAN LEFT SAN DIEGO COUNTY.
INSIDE AVA'S CAR~
"Mommy, how is the place gonna be like?" Little Kieran asked, his curiosity evident.
"It's so beautiful and gorgeous" Ava replied with a smile.
"Oh, yeah, what I wanted to tell you" Ava said, putting the car to a halt.
"What?" Kieran asked slowly.
"Immediately we get there, don't you talk to his children" she said, facing Kieran, who blinked confusedly.
"Children? The man has children? Why shouldn't I talk to them?? Are they bad?" he asked, his innocence palpable.
"Yeah, very bad. So never talk to them, promise Mommy" Ava said, holding his small hand firmly.
"No, Mommy, my teacher said I should be good always and associate with everyone" Kieran said.
Ava scoffed.
"I'm your mother, so listen. If you don't, I won't let you meet your cute Tiara again. Choose wisely, dear son" Ava said, stroking his hair.
"Tiara? No, I want to see her" he said, his voice trembling.
"Then do what I asked you to do" Ava said, her tone firm. Kieran nodded, looking down, and started picking at his nails. Ava started the car, driving off.
FLASHBACK ENDS*
Tiara can be seen walking to her room, lost in thought. Kieran had already left after telling her what happened.
'So she made him have hatred for Lucas and Lucina since they were kids, and now he couldn't control the hatred anymore. The fact that there is free jealousy in him, now that Lucas is the richest man... his mother caused everything, she started everything, and she used me as a bait' she thought, her mind racing.
She had already rejected Kieran's proposal for the last time, and he had given up.
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
HOSPITAL*
Evelyn lay on the bed, her back resting against the headboard. A wheelchair sat beside the bed, and her two legs were bandaged. Her hand was also bandaged and there are many bruises on her face. Sydney had indeed done a good beating on her. One of her hands was handcuffed to the bed. Her eyes were closed, but she wasn't sleeping.
The door opened slowly, and she opened her eyes to see her parents. She immediately looked away, uninterested in their presence.
"Why are you both here?" she asked, her voice devoid of enthusiasm.
"You still have the mouth to talk? You disgraced me! I lost two contracts because of you, because of your foolishness and jealousy... Just look at your pathetic self, you can't even walk again. Just look at you! I regret having you as my daughter" Mr. Dawson yelled, his face red with anger.
Tears rolled down Evelyn's cheeks, and she let out a quick, bitter smile.
"So, I'm being abandoned now" she muttered.
"I'm so disappointed in you. Why did you have to do that? The public doesn't really know the deep truth, but I found out it was that lady, Tiara, whom Lucas claimed to be his girlfriend, his brother's girlfriend... Why did you have to do that? Why?" Mrs. Jones asked, her voice raised in distress.
Evelyn burst into laughter, a cold, mirthless sound.
"Ohhhh, what a nice family scolding... Tskk... Even though I lost in the end, I'll make sure I'm not the only one losing. You all should go to hell! You told me he loves me, Father, but what happened? He doesn't even love me... You made me turn out this way. You did… So, you all should just go to hell" She screamed, her chest heaving with each word.
"I personally disown you as my daughter" Mr. Dawson said before walking out of the ward.
Mrs. Dawson had to hold herself back to stop crying. She ran out of the ward immediately.
A tear dropped from Evelyn's eye, but she quickly wiped it away.
"I don't care. I must have revenge. I will make sure I separate them...both Tiara and Lucas" she said confidently, her eyes blazing with determination.
*
NEXT DAY~
Today is Terry's birthday, and Tiara is ready to go to the hospital to wish him a happy birthday. She already told Lucas, and he agreed to let her go. She had already settled things with Kieran that morning, but he was still not happy. She could be seen standing at the roadside, waiting for a taxi, having rejected Lucas' offer to have his driver take her there. As she was about to flag down an approaching taxi, when four black cars stopped in front of her. Her heartbeat started racing, thinking they were kidnappers.
Three men dressed in complete suits and wearing black shades emerged from one of the cars. They approached Tiara, and she started shifting back, but their voices stopped her from taking another step back.
"We mean no harm, miss. Just come with us. Someone wants to see you" one of them said in a deep voice.
"No way! So you can kidnap me, right? Not again! Better go away, or I'll call my dangerous boyfriend. He'll kill you all in a snap of his finger. So, stay back. I'm not joking" she said, gesturing a push with her hand.
"We mean no harm, miss. The person meeting you is Mr. Ross, Lucas Ross' father" one of them said, and Tiara's eyes widened in surprise.
"Huh?" She blinked.
"Yes, miss, come this way" they said, and she hesitated before following them.
They opened the door of a black car for her, and she got in to see a man who looked like an older version of Lucas. He had gray hair with black touches and a white beard, but he was still handsome. The surprising part was that he had a similar aura to Lucas.
"I see you're the one" Mr. Ross said, turning to her, and Tiara gulped.
"Why did you call me here, sir?" she asked nervously.
"I heard my son claimed you as his girlfriend. Is it true?" he asked.
"Huh, yeah" she muttered.
"How come? From my findings, you're just his maid" he said, his eyes narrowing slightly.
"Doesn't mean love can't happen anytime" she mumbled, barely audible.
"Stay away from my son, and I'll give you whatever you want _money, anything" Mr. Ross said, pulling out a briefcase and handing it to her. But she didn't take it.
"Take it and open it" he ordered, his voice firm. She hesitated, then took the briefcase and opened it, revealing bundles of dollars inside. She had never seen so much money before. She looked at him in shock.
"That's $1 million dollars" he said, his voice matter of fact. She gasped.
"Take it and leave my son. The money can help your family" he said. But Tiara laughed, a defiant glint in her eye.
"I don't need it, sir. Even if I'm not rich, I can't take this money and leave your son. I love him so much that I can't live without him. So, sorry to burst your bubble, but I'm not interested in your money" she said, dropping the briefcase on the seat before getting out of the car.
She flagged down a taxi and got in, leaving Mr. Ross stunned.
A small, satisfied smile formed on his lips.
"Nice catch, son" he muttered to himself.
*
HOSPITAL*
Terry's friends surrounded him, showering him with gifts. His ward was decorated with balloons, and a birthday banner hung across the room.
He was tired, but the gifts kept coming, mostly from girls. Then, Tiara arrived with her own gift and wished him a happy birthday. Lucas sent Robert to give him a present. Terry thought it was the best birthday ever, but he felt sad being in the hospital on his birthday.
His phone dinged, and he saw a message from Sydney, asking him to come to the rooftop. He smiled immediately and excused himself.
ROOFTOP*
Sydney stood at the rooftop, enjoying the fresh breeze. Her hair and shirt blew in the wind. She wore a big t-shirt and jeans trousers and held a shopping bag. Suddenly, hands wrapped around her from behind, and she smiled sadly as she inhaled the familiar scent.
"Terry" she whispered slowly.
He kissed her neck from behind, and she bit her lower lip. He turned her around, and she looked up at him. He was taller than her, even though she was older.
"Hey" he called, pecking her lips lightly.
"Hey what?" she asked, with a wink.
"Hey you" he replied with a smile.
She handed him the shopping bag.
"What's that?" he asked curiously.
"A birthday present" she muttered.
He took it from her and opened it, revealing a deep silver box. He took it out and opened it, and his eyes widened in surprise. Inside was a gorgeous wristwatch.
He gasped, recognizing the watch from his earlier phone scroll, which had a price tag of $50,000. He slowly looked at her with stunned eyes.
"Sydney" he called slowly.
"Don't you dare reject it" she warned.
"But—" He tried to speak, but she interrupted him with a brief kiss, and his cheek reddened.
"Do you love it? I mean, the wristwatch" she asked.
"More than love it, it's the best birthday present ever" he said happily, before hugging her tightly. Sydney smiled, hugging him back too.
AFTERNOON*
Lucina was in her car, singing along to the song playing ...."Butter" by BTS.
"Smooth like butter, like a criminal undercover, Gon’ pop like trouble... breaking into your heart like that, ooh.. Cool shade stunner, yeah, I owe it all to my mother,uh.. Hot like summer, yeah, I'm making you sweat like that. BREAK IT DOWN.
“Oooh when I look in the mirror…" She was still singing when a car crossed her, cutting her off, and she slammed on the brakes, almost hitting her head on the wheel.
"The fûck I'm listening to my babies' song, and now some motherfûcker or motherfûckers almost made me hit my head on the wheel" She yelled angrily, looking up to see some men getting out of the car and heading towards her. She opened her door, ready to lash out at them.
"You buffoons want to make me die? Look at how ugly you all are_ fools, pathetic fools, douches!" She yelled, pointing at them, but one of them approached her and she folded her arms angrily.
She was about to continue yelling when he punched her in the face, and her head spinned…muttering,
"Ohhh, my Jungkook... Kookie"
Before fainting. They caught her before she hit the floor and carried her away.
________________
Meanwhile, Tiara was now inside a taxi after leaving the hospital when suddenly she noticed the taxi was heading in a different direction. She frowned.
"Wait, don't tell me you're going to kidnap me again. I just want to say my boyfriend is quite dangerous. Make sure you say farewell to your family because you're dying today..." The fake taxi driver didn't let her finish before stopping the car and stabbing her with a syringe. A sharp sting shot through her, and her vision blurred as the sedative began to take effect. Her body grew heavy, and she slumped forward on her seat, her head rolling to one side and darkness enveloped her.
*
20 MINUTES LATER, UNKNOWN LOCATION*
Tiara and Lucina were tied to different chairs, unconscious. The room was dimly lit, with a single bulb hanging from the ceiling, casting a faint glow. The light was not too bright, allowing anybody to see each other's faces.
Suddenly, pairs of legs walked into the room, eyes fixed on the two ladies. A man had a grin spreading across his lips as he gazed at them. He was none other than Mr. Dawson, accompanied by his 5 men. He dialed a number on his phone and the person answered after two rings.
"If you want to save both your lover and your sister, come to an old warehouse. I'll send you the address in a minute" he said before hanging up, he sent the address to the person. The perso was none other than Lucas.
"I'll kill you, Lucas. And too bad your father would have been dead by now. I can have all the wealth to myself... I thought my dear daughter would ruin my plan at first, but I guess she made the plan faster" he laughed wickedly.
His loud voice woke Lucina up. She opened her eyes weakly and jolted up, seeing where she was and realizing she was tied up. She looked up and frowned deeply, seeing Mr. Dawson.
"Mr. Dawson" she called slowly.
"Yes, darling" Mr. Dawson answered with a smirk.
"Wait…So, right now, am I being kidnapped or is this just a film role? But I never applied for any movie industry, so what's really happening?" she said in a low voice but he didn't reply.
"Hey, old hag, tell me, what's going on right now?" she continued, but her eyes caught a familiar person tied up too and unconscious.
"Tiara" she called loudly.
"So, in one word, we were both kidnapped" She screamed.
"Mr. Dawson, you are a bastard" She yelled, and one of his men slapped her immediately, causing her hair to scatter over her face.
"Ouch, remember, any man who beats a woman is an animal, how dare you all" she yelled.
Mr. Dawson stared blankly at her as she ranted.
"Save me, somebody, save me! I think I'm kidnapped" She cried loudly.
"JK, save me... Kookie, your wife is kidnapped, save me.. Liam, your girlfriend is kidnapped, save me..Suga, your sweetheart is kidnapped, save me...Twin bro, save me, ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!" She cried loudly.
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
Ava walked out of the hospital looking half dead. Mr. Ross had been rushed to the hospital and was now confirmed dead from poisoning. Some reporters were already outside, and Ava smiled inwardly, knowing who had called them.
The reporters gathered around her immediately, and the hospital guards had to intervene to protect her. They bombarded her with questions.
"Mrs. Ava Ross, can you tell us about Mr. Ross's health? Someone said he was rushed here, and we want to know his current situation" a reporter asked.
Ava burst into tears immediately.
"What's wrong, Mrs. Ava Ross?" they kept asking her.
Then she dropped the bombshell.
"My husband is dead" She cried loudly.
"He is dead" She said before fainting, and the guards quickly caught her.
