Cinderella And Her Beautiful Octuplets

“Come on, let’s go to bed,” he said and she nodded, just as they were about to leave, the front door opened revealing Arianna.

“Mom” Lucas called and she smiled at him. She raised her eyebrows when she saw Lisa. She recognized her, the bitch who came between her sons, she’s back.

“Mom, this is….”

“Lisa,” Arianna said, cutting off his speech.

“Hi, ma’am, ” Lisa muttered with a smile on her face. This was the first time she was meeting Lucas’s mom in person. Arianna forced herself to smile at her and with that, she walked away.

She didn’t like Lisa, and she wouldn’t pretend she liked her, she thought to herself.

“What’s wrong?” Lisa asked.

“She’s probably had a stressful day,” Lucas said and Lisa nodded in response.

A lot of people do not like me here, staying here won’t be as easy as I thought, Lisa said to herself as they walked towards Lucas’s room, he opened the door, and walked in.

Meanwhile, Hannah, who had put the kids to sleep, was about to walk out of the kid’s room when she saw Arianna.

“Mom” she called wondering what was wrong as she saw the look on her face.

“I just came back from your room. Who let the Devil incarnate into the house?” Arianna asked and HannaH raised her eyebrows confused wondering who she was talking about.

“Devil incarnate?” She asked to be sure of what she had heard.

“Yes, I mean Lisa. Who let her in? Why’s she here?” Arianna asked and Hannah sighed as she walked out of the room and closed the door behind her.

“I don’t know, maybe that’s a question you should ask Brandon and Lucas. I think they are both still in love with her. She’s got a hold over the both of them” Hannah said and Arianna sighed.

“She was the one who turned my sons against each other in the first place, I’m not going to let that happen again,” she said looking annoyed. All she wanted to do at that moment was to rip off Lisa’s head and throw her out of the house making sure she never came back.

Just then a text message popped into Hannah’s phone, it was work-related.

“Mom, it’s late, you should rest, we will talk about all of this tomorrow,” Hannah said and with that, she walked away.

Immediately she entered her room and she met Brandon lying on the bed.

“What do you want, Brandon?” She asked as she closed the door behind her.

“Nothing, I’m here to sleep, I spent the night here with you on this bed and I told you I would be sleeping here from today hence,” he said and Hannah scoffed.

“You must be joking,” she said as she laughed but then the laugh on her face was replaced with a frown.

“No, you are not spending the night on this bed, you can use the guest room,” Hannah said and Brandon shrugged and then rolled his eyes.

“I’m not sleeping outside this room, when you are tired of standing you can come join me on the bed,” he said as he closed his eyes and then covered himself properly with the duvet.

“You..!!” Hannah paused as she gritted her teeth and tightened her fist in annoyance. She wasn’t going to sleep in the same bed with him.

She took the pillow from the bed and pulled the duvet from him.

“What are you doing?” Brandon asked as he opened his eyes but she paid no attention to him.

She put the pillow on the couch and laid on it before covering herself with the duvet and then closed her eyes pretending to fall asleep.

Brandon on the other hand stares at her speechlessly not knowing what to say. He wondered if this was the same woman who asked him not to leave her last night and said she loved him.

She was drunk, what was he expecting, for her to come to hug him, the Hannah he knew would never do that?

“Are you asleep already?” Hannah asked as she opened her eyes while staring at the ceiling.

“No,” Brandon muttered.

“I want Lisa out of the house, she can’t stay here, she’s going to cause a lot of trouble. Even mom doesn’t want her here too” Hannah said and Brandon sighed.

“I’m on it, she will be out soon,” he said in response and Hannah hummed and just then she suddenly closed her eyes and drifted to sleep.

“It would be difficult throwing her out since she has Lucas on her side, it won’t be easy,” Brandon said and then sighed softly. He stared at Hannah and noticed she wasn’t saying a word.Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

“Are you awake?” He asked but no response. He stood up and moved towards her. He stared at her beautiful face which looked so innocent.

Anyone who stares at her beautiful face would think she’s so innocent and calm but deep down she’s so stubborn, he thought and then smiled at himself.

She didn’t look so comfortable sleeping on the couch.

He carried her gently and then placed her on the bed.

He sits by the bedside, watching her sleep peacefully.

Her hair is spread out across the pillow, and her skin is glowing in the soft light in the room. He feels a wave of love and admiration wash over him as he watches her.

She looks so beautiful, so perfect, and he feels a deep need to protect her from anything that might harm her.

He thinks about how he would do anything to keep her safe, even if it meant going up against the whole world. He knows that she is the most important thing in his life and he would not be able to survive without her and the octuplets.

They were his life, he thought silently, and then covered her properly with the duvet.

He stood up and was about to leave the room but something deep down inside of him just didn’t want him to leave, all he wanted to do all night was sit beside her and watch her pretty face while she slept peacefully.
