I Swear, Let Me Love You Again

Lorena



LYDIA’S POV.

“Have you made a decision?” My father asked the two of us to sit down for breakfast.

Andrew looked at me through the corner of his eye waiting for my reply but I didn’t have one.

“I don’t know that, I’m still trying to figure it out but if you want me to work in the company then I guess I have no choice.”

“No Princess. I want you to be involved in the affairs of the company and know the in and out of everything. So you can finally take your place at the company. Or do you have something else you’re interested in?” My father stared at me waiting for a reply. Andrew, who had his eyes on the plate before him, stopped to analyze me.Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

Did I have something else I wanted to do? Nope, I had majored in business so I could work at my father’s company. That was my only goal, to make my father proud in all aspects of my life. Luckily for me, he wasn’t too hard on me either and he encouraged me all steps of the way.

“No, there’s nothing else I’m interested in. I really do want to work at the company.” A smile of satisfaction crossed their faces.

“Good.” My father said and Andrew stared at me longer trying to detect a hint of lies or uncertainty but there were none. They went ahead to discuss the numbers of the company and I zoned out sipping my glass of orange juice.

“The King Industries might be merging with the Wilst Family. As one of the kids is getting married.” I caught that and I was taken aback.

Nathan is getting married already?  I scoffed under my breath. That wouldn’t come as a shock to me at all.

“A merger? They wouldn’t go for merging, more of owning more shares in each other’s company in order to be able to make decisions.” Andrew nodded his head taking in my father’s words.

“But I have to get going now. I have a meeting by 8.” He sipped his juice and stood up planting a kiss on my forehead.

“Have a nice day.” I said after him and he responded the same. My dad also stood up picking up his expensive phone which was seated on the table next to his food.

“I’m headed to the company as well. Any plans for today?” He asked and I smiled brightly.

“Yes, Lorena is coming by and we will probably go shopping.” Lorena has been my best friend since childhood and we have always been close. She, like my family, stood against me getting married to Nathaniel but when she saw how adamant I was, she supported me.

We lost communication after my marriage as she traveled to Paris to start her fashion line contrary to her line of study which was in Legal Practice. Her parents were quite disappointed but seeing that she was thriving in the fashion industry they became more supportive.

“Alright Princess. The driver will be on standby, and call me for anything.” He kissed my forehead and I smiled holding his arm.

“Have a nice day daddy and don’t stress yourself out.” I told him sternly and he smiled nodding.

After he left, I went ahead to take care of my hygiene and clean up my room. I laid on my bed out of habit after having to clean around at my matrimonial home. The other day, a maid came into my room and saw me cleaning my room. Her face was filled with horror and she literally begged me to stop. The sight was amusing but it was something I was used to and wanted to do.

I put on a black and white striped jumpsuit which was tight enough to bring out my curves. I had been eating well and relaxing without any stress or worry so I had gained a little weight much to my liking.

“Ma’am.” A knock came through my door as I stared at myself in the mirror.

“Yes, come in.”

“Miss Lorena is here.” She announced and I grinned widely. Lorena stared at me with a blank expression on her face, making my smile falter.

“Hi Lorena.” I waved shyly, not liking her facial expression one bit. She stared at me from head to toe with her Louis Vuitton Bag in her hands and flashing her manicured nails. She looked like a model with her flawless skin and her beautiful figure. She had always been the most beautiful, calling the attention of guys with her aura and body. I admired her a lot and her ability to pull off any dress was insane.

“Girl, if you don’t give me a hug.” I instantly ran into her arms and she returned the smile showing off her white teeth.

“I missed you so so much.” She hugged me tightly and my eyes watered thinking about all the memories we have shared and ones I had missed.

“I missed you more.” She sounded like she was about to cry. So I broke the hug to look at her face.

“Wow…you’re about to make me ruin my makeup.” She fanned her eyes and I giggled blinking repeatedly.

“We have to catch up for real. You look so good.” She stared at me from head to toe and I frowned.

“I don’t think so.”

“Oh, you do. But first let’s go to the spa. We can fill each other in on everything and get our nails done at the same time.” I nodded in agreement.
