Chapter 21

ISABELLA'S POV

All my attention has suddenly been gripped by something else that I almost didn't realize the man had already made the announcement, making everyone go silent in confusion.

“Mr Rodrigo, I - we - demand an explanation!” a letter voices out with sweat dripping off his forehead. I was pretty sure it took a bit of courage for him to speak up.

Immediately, the man said so, and the others immediately nodded their heads to support the one who had spoken. Even if they couldn't speak they've been helped by the first letter.

“Distribute the draft to every one of them,” I heard Rodrigo's voice instruct the man beside him, and the man quickly got up and started distribution just like he was being.

I looked closely at what was being distributed and realized it was my draft that had been photocopied and distributed to the shareholders.

    Chapter 22Writer'S POV “Did you call me nut because I used your credit card without telling you?” he asked, laughing hysterically as if he had just heard something funny even though he was the first person to use the word “Nut”.“Why should I take your permission before using it? You're my girlfriend, and we'll be getting married soon!” Lewiston thundered murderously while leaving Helen in total shock.If she had not heard it from his mouth, Helen would still have believed it wasn't her man who used her card at those places he used it. And even though she was being told that it was someone closest to her who knew her PIN who used her card.She never for once thought it was Lewis. Helen was aware of the man's occupation so she thought he wouldn't use her card without her permission.Given his occupation, Helen almost couldn't believe it was done by him. Because, as a lawyer, he used her credit card without her approval. Which means theft and he was supposed to know better than her.“W

The man was lying on the bed half naked while her head was on him.“What do you plan to do next? After All, she didn't make me the director.” She asked briefly as she raised her head to look at the man before touching him.“I have to still watch her for a while. She seemed normal.” Tyler said briefly. “Did you say anything unusual about her?” He asked just to be sure if he was the only person noticing the slight changes in her recently.“Nothing changed though. She still does the same acting as if she was the best of all. Nothing has changed except the fact that she has learned how to use her words strangely but wisely,” Nicolette said as she remembered her words this morning.“You know what. She's the least of our problems. I'm sure she'll end up making you the director. After all, she has always been so

Breathing out again, I looked at Tyler.“I can't believe you would spend that much money without letting me know!” I couldn’t help raising my voice slightly.“I thought it was a necessary expense. Besides, you spend money on things I don't agree with all the time.” He shrugged which got me more angered.This very stupid non challant attitude. I just breath in so as not to ruin everything, “The company has gone down and this is all you have to say? You're unbelievable! Do you realize at all that we are going bankrupt.”I picked up my bag and walked out of the office.

Shaking my head for having such a cruel fate. I floated with the wind to the rooftop of the car park. With each gust of wind, the sand rustled and quivered, adding a sense of motion and life to the park.I could see Nicollete and Tyler further away from the park, but they were not alone. There was another man there, his face covered with a mask. But unlike the person that shot me, he was wearing a blue overall while the former was on black shirt and top. My eyes had become bloodshot as I glared at them, wishing to tear their bones apart and drink their blood.Unfortunately, no matter how hard I tried,

Different questions seemed to be flying in the air, there was only one question that seemed to enter my ear.I looked around at the familiar place, it was the conference room. My eyes were almost blinded by the different snap lights targeted at me. Everything seemed to be live and direct.I felt sore all over my body. Suddenly, I became sober in an instant as they began to roll in their questions. Their questions were weird, but I couldn’t answer any of them.“Who would be elected for the position of director in the upcoming board meeting for Starlight Entertainment?”.

She's worried about you. Everyone is worried about you,” She said, confusing me more.“Big sister, you shouldn't have responded to those paparazzi. Now you're the number 1 trending worldwide,” She said looking furious.“Oh that,” I muttered shortly without sparing her a glance. I had thought she was talking about something big but didn't expect it from the paparazzi scenario stuff.“Big sister, are you okay?
