GHOST FROM THE PAST
Maddy Turner
Philip is that you ?
Maddy Turner
Oh my god, how are you? I haven't seen you in a long time
Philip Solano
Yeah indeed it was a long time....
Maddy Turner
I saw your articles on the display...over there, you should have told me or grandpa ..we would have prepared a separate exhibition for you.
Maddy Turner
No need to share it with other people, we can do this much for you...
Philip Solano
No,, thank you ... I'm managing fine on my own.
Maddy Turner
Yeah, whatever....
Philip Solano
Shall we go and meet Mr Lance?
Mia Roosevelt
Yeah, i should say my greetings.
Maddy Turner
You should come home for dinner, now that I'm back.
Philip Solano
yeah? apparently the whole city knows about your arrival.
Maddy Turner
Yes, but we are here for now.... Ron and I don't like it here, but he's having some family issues.
Maddy Turner
Let me just call him, wait here.
Maddy went back, and tapped on the shoulders of a man. She said something to him in the ear and he immediately apologized to the men next to him.
She folded her hands around his arm, and grabbed him tightly, like he belongs to him and he does. Mia saw the whole scene unfolding in front of her eyes, and it would be a lie to say that she's fine.
He hasn't changed much, except for his hairstyle. He doesn't wear it like a boy anymore, he has pulled them back bringing the man in him. Although he still wears those customized branded suits, that shows his wealth.
His feet stop as soon as his eyes meet with Mia's. He parted his mouth and he blinked his eyes fast, like he couldn't believe what he was seeing. He eyes roamed all over her body, remembering every detail of her until it stops on the cane, and he frowns.
Maddy Turner
Come on baby.....let me introduce you to my cousin.
Philip Solano
It's a long story..
Lois Abbott
which you never bother to tell us, even though you know everything.
Philip Solano
I will tell you everything later.
Maddy Turner
Philip this is my husband Aaron and Aaron this is my cousin Philip
Aaron pushed his hand forward without looking at Philip, his eyes were still focused on Mia. She was wearing a teal-colored dress with a sweetheart neck line, complimenting her figure and giving a glimpse of her ch*st. The color not only brings out her blue eyes but also fits best on her red hair.
Aaron Knight
Umm Hello, we are meeting so late....you weren't there at my....my marriage.
Philip Solano
Yeah, i missed it
Maddy Turner
You not only missed our marriage but my engagement too.....why did you suddenly run away that day.
Philip Solano
it was an emergency...
Maddy Turner
You should have seen how angry grandpa was.
Philip turned her head in the direction of Mia and Lois, how could he attend the stupid party when his ladies were in trouble. Maddy followed his eyes and looked at Mia.
Maddy Turner
It's because of her, isn't it?
Maddy Turner
Is she your girlfriend.?
Philip Solano
Mind you business Maddy ...
Maddy Turner
Oh, God! this is unbelievable
Mia Roosevelt
...............
Maddy Turner
So it runs in your genes, isn't t it Philip?
Philip Solano
What do you mean?
Maddy Turner
i mean it's in your genes, loving the broken pieces, your mother left our family for her broken patient aka your father.
Maddy Turner
And now you are dating this girl.
Aaron Knight
Maddy stop it......
Maddy chuckled and looked at Mia up and down, her eyes were fixed in her cane and her lean figure. It was obvious that Mia is having trouble in standing
Lois Abbott
Shut up, At least his parents are still alive unlike yours....
Mia Roosevelt
Lois .. don't.
Maddy Turner
How dare you talk in front of me ?
Philip Solano
Maddy can't you just for once not act like a bi*ch and be human.
Maddy Turner
What? Philip are you going to take her side in front of me ?
Lois Abbott
Or what? Should he shower flowers over you?
Mia slid her hand and grabbed Lois, she wanted her to stop talking. There is no point in making any scene. She knows what Maddy is like, Aaron has told her enough about his brother's girlfriend when they were dating.
The same girlfriend who is his wife now. The feeling of pure disgust came into her eyes when she realized the fact that Aaron married his brother's girl. The brother who's where about is unknown.
Maddy Turner
What the hell, do you know who i am?
Philip Solano
Maddy, if you are getting bored go and shop for something or go to the salon, but stop making a scene.
Maddy Turner
(To Aaron)
Aren't you going to say anything, they are insulting me.
Aaron Knight
What happened to your leg?
Aaron asked before he could stop himself, Maddy frowned at his question and Mia's eyes went wide. She can't believe how shameless he is. He's asking about his former lover in front of his wife.
Mia Roosevelt
Nothing that concerns you.
Maddy Turner
You are rude....no wonder Philip likes you.
Philip Solano
You know what Maddy, you were right.....i do like repairing broken pieces, but you know what I like the most.
Maddy Turner
.............
Philip Solano
Breaking built-up pieces ....as far as i remember I'm the only male in Turner's family third generation.
Philip Solano
With your father's dead and grandpa running the business.. I'm the only heir left to pass on the business. Don't make me act on it.
Maddy Turner
I'm married now, Aaron can run the business
Philip Solano
Oh can he?, but he's not the Turner's blood, is he?
Maddy Turner
You won't do it
Philip Solano
Yeah, but you are forcing me to.
Maddy Turner
..............
Philip Solano
As long as you mind your business and stop harassing my friends you will have the money you brag about.
Mia Roosevelt
............
Philip Solano
Or else one step inside the Turner's villa and one drop of tear in front of grandpa..... guess who will own the business and the money
Philip Solano
And i swear to god Maddy...i will make you pay for all these insults
With that Philip took Lois hand and walked away. Mia took one final glance at Aaron and started walking. The pain in her leg is telling her that she has stood for too long, and this will be a painful night for her physically and mentally.
She took another step and a hand stopped her. Goosebumps rose in her body from his touch, she used to love his fingers on her body now these fingers make her nauseous.
Aaron Knight
You didn't answer....what happened to your leg?
Maddy Turner
Ron, Don't touch her.
Mia Roosevelt
Listen to your wife Mr knight.
Aaron Knight
Why are you limping? Tell me....
Mia Roosevelt
There is nothing to tell... I'm not your concern anymore.
Maddy Turner
Aaron, who is she?
Aaron Knight
It's for me to decide, what concerns me or not.
Mia Roosevelt
F*ck off Aaron, you already made your decision three years ago.
Mia Roosevelt
I'm your husband's ex-girlfriend, and I'm not a broken piece, bi*ch.
Philip was walking fast, he was pissed at Maddy, he didn't know they both were coming to this party. Because with all the uproar in the knight family, they are laying low right now
If he's having a bit of a hint of Aaron being here, he would have told Lois.He stopped walking when Lois tugged his sleeve. He turned back and Lois was smiling at him.
Lois Abbott
God, you are such a bada**
Philip Solano
If I were...... it wouldn't have happened in the first place.
Lois Abbott
Hey, you can't control what people would say, but you can give them one hell of an answer, which you did
Lois Abbott
Thank you for standing up for Mia and....for me.
Philip looked into her eyes and saw admiration for himself, a small smile came onto his lips. Lois took his hand into hers and smiled at him.
When Mia saw Lois and Philip all her sadness ran away, she had always shipped them. She remembers the day Philip was assigned to him as a junior partner and how intimidated he was around Lois.
But as the time has passed three of them become best friends, where Philip's feeling developed more towards Lois and now it's hard for him to let go of this feeling.
