Boss Lady and Her Billionaire Knight 21. Self Written, Self Directed Drama
The next few days were 'adventurous' to say the least for Denise. She loved the way the company took care of them from food to sleeping arrangements, not talking about the way they were taught. Each day was filled with activities like morning exercises: they were to become actors and actresses and so had to keep fit, breakfast, then they would be taught how to behave during a shooting like approaching cameras from all angles, how to appear natural when acting, how to relate to each other and the crew and such. Then there would be that session where they would meet with fellow actors and actresses and create rapport so as to make it easier on them when the real acting starts, they also met the rest of the crew and a ton of other activities. No day was boring.The movie, 'Mechanics' had about thirty or so characters but the main were six. These consisted of the leader - a male and he was the brains of the team, Laura - the part Denise was to act - the thief, another lady - a grifter, a

We Are Not ThievesFreya seemed really worried and those who were not in on the secret, all felt bad for her. "I hope you find it. It's not easy losing a memento that you hold dear," one boy consoled and Denise thought if only you knew.She however didn't show it on her face. She kept a straight face as if she didn't know what was happening.They helped to look for it under the seats and everywhere Freya could have gone but it was nowhere to be found. Freya really looked sad and tears wouldn't stop falling."I will really feel guilty if something my grandma left me gets lost. And I don't even k kw what to tell my parents. They will kill me if I lost it," she said amidst sniffs and cries. Ooooh, poor Freya!"When did you say you last see it?" one of her minions asked and by now, she was shedding tears too for her friend."This one will make a very good actress. Too bad she was given a strong woman lead and not a weak woman. A weak woman would have fit her well," Denise thought with

When Denise was around fourteen years old, she remembers because it was four years after her grandfather's death, Georgina thought she could frame her by stealing her father's emergency cash that was always kept in a drawer in his office. That was a place even Georgina herself wasn't allowed in.Denise was busy cleaning as usual and this day, she noticed that Georgina kept going after her and because Denise wasn't born an idiot, she suspected something fishy was in the offing and she pretended that she hadn't realised that Georgina had been monitoring her every move. When Georgina was sure that Denise was in the kitchen very busy and wouldn't be getting out of there any time soon, she snuck upstairs into her father's study.What she didn't know was that Denise had followed her and since Georgina didn't expect anyone to know what she was upto, she didn't put her guard up.

When Freya saw Denise for the first time, she thought that Denise must have applied a lot of makeup on her face because she didn't believe that someone could be that beautiful naturally. However, when Denise showed up for the morning exercises with a sleepy face and no makeup at all, Freya knew that this was the real deal. Her competitive self couldn't take it and she hated this girl called MS just because she was more beautiful than her.You see, Freya had been born and brought up in affluence. Her family was what people call filthy rich. Being the only daughter in a family of four children, everyone, including her three elder brothers, treated her like an expensive porcelain or like an egg that would break at the slightest of careless handling. Everyone did what she wanted and she was given anything and everything she demanded for. She was their little angel.In short, it would be safe to conclude that Freya was what people call 'a spoiled brat'.In school, many people worshipped he

There was an uproar in the room. People couldn't believe that she had the bracelet all along and made even Mr V come cutting his dinner short."Who does she think she is?" Some wondered loudly, not hiding their annoyance."Ah! So she is a thief? She took her friend's bracelet and just kept quiet one girl said and what was worse was that they didn't try to hide it. They talked loudly so that everybody in the room could hear."Not even that. Did you see how she shouted accusing MS and that other girl Zoe? So, she was looking for scape goats so that she could take it?" Another girl said and by now, that girls face had turned crimson with embarrassment. She couldn't even begin to imagine what went wrong. This wasn't supposed to happen.The situation was not only embarrassing but also humiliating to her. This was the first time she was on the spot for anything. And what was worse was she didn't know how the bracelet got into her pocket.This wasn't part of the plan. The plan was that Freya

Ansel sat in his office with a dark expression about his face.

He felt like killing someone and a cold dark aura was round about him and it was good that he was alone in his office.Since he met Denise that day Fey and Alex brought her in his office, he had someone following her twenty four seven. He had a gut feeling that she wouldn't call him and true, she didn't. He, however, did not give up on her. He had her on his tab and he was ready to do everything it took to make her his and happy while he was at it. He wanted her by his side.In his 28 years of life, he had never had someone who had aroused his emotions the way that girl had. He had tried but it never happened. There was even a time he doubted himself wondering if he was asexual or even gay. But all that had been proven wrong and he knew he was a normal man with normal emotio

Ansel was a man who appreciated a good thing when he saw it. Take for instance Denise. He knew she was a jewel from the first moment he saw her and he wanted to keep and take care of her though he knew it would be hard because she was a wild thing. All given, he was ready for the challenge.The same went for Makai. Ansel knew he had landed a nice man the first day he met him. He didn't open that trunk the whole of the journey back to the city and it was opened when the car was about to be cleaned after the journey. He was surprised when his men told him that they had found an unconscious man in the boot of his vehicle.After looking at the man, he knew something was off. The man was wearing military clothing and he seemed beat. He looked bruised, exhausted and hungry. Ansel knew right away that he had a deserter. But he knew that it wasn't as simple and he wanted to hear the man's side before deciding on his course of action. He thus asked his men to take the stranger to one of the h

In Ansel's office, Kai and he were having small talk when the secretary called. She got back to him in less than the ten minutes she had been given. It was either she was that efficient or she wanted to show how efficient she was. Either way, Ansel knew her very well and the only reason he tolerated her was because she was good at her job."Sir, Mr. Emmet is on the line. Can I transfer him to you now?" She asked and Ansel answered with a grunt. He wasn't a man of many words and his workers had been used to it by now.After a while, "Hello Mr. Winston? How are you today? I hope there is no problem," Mr Emmet, the CEO and President of Diamond Studios, was worried when he heard that it Ansel Winston who was looking for him.He couldn't remember he and Ansel crossing paths any time in the near past and he wondered why Ansel himself would look for him.

Boss Lady and Her Billionaire Knight 64. She Had a Lot of Scores to Settle With Them
Denise looked at Mandy and wondered why and where all the hatred came from. She didn't know the other woman and she really didn't think that even if it was a grudge because of taking Ansel or humiliating her the other day, it warranted her asking her people to kill her."Why do you hate me so much first of all? Do we know each other from somewhere?" Denise asked Mandy because she thought all this crazy.How can one hate someone else out of their own delusions? It wasn't normal. But she needed to hear it from Mandy herself because maybe she had a reason."Do I have any reason to hate you? You took my man away from me. Isn't that reason enough? I hate your very guts!" Mandy said through gritted teeth but Denise just looked at her with pity in her eyes. Really? Did Mandy just call Ansel her man?"Has Ansel ever told you that he loves you or has he ever given you any reason to believe that he does? Has he ever behaved in a way to suggest that he mightwant you?" Denise asked her again,

She loved Ansel and she was ready to fight for him… literally.She sat on the couch again but her heart was still aching.

Boss Lady and Her Billionaire Knight 62. He Was Going to Rain Hell on Them
These men regretted underestimating Denise and taking her nonchalance as fear and helplessness. If they had known that she could handle a gun and she knew how to fight, they would have recruited more men or even dealt with her more ruthlessly and without delay. They sat on the floor in a line like obedient school children and faced her. She then sat back on the couch and bent her back a little, parted her legs and placed her elbows on her knees and looked at them the way one would look at children. She was like a mother teaching her children how to be good boys. She was dangling the gun before them and they seemed visibly scared until one decided to be brave. "Do you even know how to use that thing? Stop pretending! Our young miss told us that you are a nobody. So, stop pretending to be brave. Why don't we fight and see what you can do?" He said and she smiled at that. An eerily scary smile that had him regretting why he said that. "Okay," she said just that and pulled the tri

"So, you guys want to tell me who sent you?" She asked them, looking all nonchalant and they laughed.She looked at them like fools and made herself comfortable at that dusty couch. She even placed one leg on top of the other on the knee and looked all bossy. She didn't look like she was the kidnapee at all."Yeah, we will tell you once we deal with you. Our boss told us to do with you whatever we would and she would come to finish you. Don't worry, we threw your phone away and no one would be able to locate you. So, it's just you and us. You can stop pretending to be all brave. But don't worry, we love breaking the hard ones," one said and he touched his lower lip with his thumb seductively, maybe thinking about how he was going to deal with her."Our boss should have told us you are this beautiful. I swear I would have asked for less than what we demanded. I would have even done it for free. Wah! It has been long since l was with such a beauty," another said and they laughed at that
