Heather's mouth was laid agape as Levi drove through the estate his Villa was situated.
“Why have I never heard of this place? It's breathtaking" She said in awe then turned to Levi.
“It was my grandfather's and it's only after I moved here that the estate began to function again so I'm sure you'll hear of it soon" Her eyes widened slightly then she turned to stare at the houses they drove past.
“So most of these houses don't have occupants?" Levi nodded.
“Yeah but the houses are selling out quickly so I'm sure by the end of the month, it should all be sold out. Do you want me to get you and Kiara a house here?" She turned to him.
“Could you?" He scoffed.
“My grandfather passed this estate down to me so technically, the estate belongs to me so of course I could" Heather beamed at him but suddenly frowned then let out a sigh.
“What is it?" He questioned.
“There's no way Kiara would agree to stay here especially since we both know you're just giving us the house because of her so she can be closer to you" Levi's cheeks turned red.
“I… that's not true" She rolled her eyes.
“Oh come on, I'm on your side so you don't have to lie to me. Let's not worry about that for now. When she comes back, I'll have a conversation with her and since we have nowhere else to stay, she might agree" He nodded slowly then they both went silent as he drove.
“That man earlier…. Daniel? Who is he to you?" Levi asked suddenly and she tensed up.
“He used to be my boyfriend but he broke up with me because he fell out of love" Levi's eyes widened slightly.
“I find that hard to believe" She turned to him with a frown.
“Why is that?"
“Because you're amazing. How can anyone fall out of love for you?" A slow bright smile crept on her face.
“Oh you're good with words but be careful, I might end up falling for you at this rate" She chuckled at the panic on his Face.
“Relax, I'm just joking. I know your heart belongs to Kiara and I just hope she doesn't break your heart because you're a good person" He didn't say anything to that because he wasn't a good person. If only they knew everything he had had to do just to get to where he was now, they would be running away from him because he was a monster.
“Even if it takes years for her to love me back, I'm willing to wait. She came to me at my lowest moment in life, the time I felt like I was done with the world for good. She came to me like an angel and saved my life" Heather furrowed her eyebrows.
“I guess that's why you used to call her your guardian angel?" Levi nodded with a smile.
“She hates it when I call her that but I'll keep calling her that anyway" She smiled at him then tilted her head.
