She wanted to touch the gun, but then she remembered that not all things should be touched. If someone was killed with that gun and she touched it, they might think she killed the person because her fingerprints was found.
"What is wrong with Skylar?"
She brought out her phone, dialed Skylar's number, Skylar picked at the second ring.
"What is this for?" She asked, angrily. "Why the fuck did you send me a gun?".
"I was about to call. It isn't a real gun, it's a toy. I switched the gifts by mistake, the one with you belongs to my son" She informed.
"Your son?" Beatrice asked. Drum playing in her heart, as it was beating fast.
Could it be that?
"My sister's son, it's his birthday today, and he's also like my son. I wouldn't be so stupid not to take drugs after having sex with Brandon" Wherever Skylar was, Beatrice knew she rolled her eyes at the last sentence.
'Phew' She let out a breath she was holding. "Then h
Beatrice woke up with a headache, her head was aching badly. Maybe it was because of the drink she drank last night. It was her party, so Brandon let her did what she wanted.She glanced at the other side of the bed, but Brandon wasn't there. Well, he was the least of her problems. She needed to solve everything with Skylar, that way she and Brandon could live a happy life.Her phone rang, she picked the call and placed it on her ear."Earth to the latest CEO. The news about your boutique is everywhere. Brandon is so cute! I wish I.....""Cut it off, Maria. Don't wish nothing with my husband, go find your man"."Oh, Bea. Stop trying to act like the overprotective wife, I was just kidding..... So what's up?"."Good morning" Since Maria was so engrossed in her boutique, Beatrice greeted her, it was like a reminder that Maria didn't greet her."Morning. No need to ask about your night, am sure Br
It had been few weeks since they returned from Korea, everything back to normal.Tina returned to high school, and Mia also letgo of her feelings for Cade. She wanted to start her life afresh.Beatrice had already named the boutique, it was called. "QUALITY'S COLLECTIONS".*****Beatrice focused her gaze on her laptop as she stared at the financial records of the company.She wasn't working at her boutique, she hired a manager to look after it, she was working at her dad's company. As the CEO."Everything is perfect" She smiled.She twirled her chair around and laughed. "It feels good working here".The sound of her phone ringing, made her jolt out from her thought."Hello, baby" Hearing his voice, Beatrice smiled."Here goes my prince charming. I know it has just been five hours, but I miss you" Beatrice giggled."I don't
It was so early in the morning, Beatrice woke up with a throbbing headache. She sat upright and saw that the bed was empty - only she was on it."Argh!" She held her forehead. The headache was so serious.Brandon came out of the bathroom, with a towel tied around his waist, he was getting ready for work. Despite being the CEO, he still make sure he went to work early.After greeting each other, he noticed she wasn't okay, she was holding her forehead."Are you okay?" He asked, in a concern tone."Not really. My head aches" She replied."Sorry, baby. I will call the doctor" Brandon said as he reached for his phone."You don't have to" She stopped him. "I will just drop by the hospital after work hours"."You are still planning to go to work?" He asked in disbelief. "Don't stress yourself. I will call Michelle, she will take care of everything. Just rest at home, I will also call Mi
Earlier, Brandon was busy reading some files when his phone beeped, it was a message from Beatrice."You didn't call the doctor. I will just go the hospital, the condition is getting worse" Reading the text, Brandon touched his forehead."I totally forgot. Don't worry, I will call the doctor now. Just stay at home and rest" He texted back to her.Few minutes later, he thought of something. Since he was less busy at work, why don't he go home and spend time with her, especially now that she isn't feeling well.He left the office and headed home. Getting home, he saw that Beatrice wasn't in her room."But I told her to wait for the doctor, where is she? He muttered as he brought out his phone from the pocket. He was about to dial Beatrice's number when he heard a knock.He opened the door, and saw the assistant chef holding a tray with a glass of juice on it."Sir, you are back
He checked Beatrice's phone and saw that it was a message from Zack."How did Brandon know you came to my house? What is happening, baby. Please call me when everything is alright" It was the message that Zack sent.Brandon stared at Beatrice in disgust. He checked the previous messages and saw that Beatrice had been planning to elope with Zack, using his money.Everything was now making sense to him, so Beatrice was only pretending to love him because she needed his money to elope with Zack.He threw the phone back to her. He didn't say any word, he just shut his eyes and let more tears flow freely.Seeing Brandon in that condition, brought more pain to Beatrice.Slowly, she touched his cheeks. "Believe me Brandon, I am not capable of cheating on you" She said, hoping it would change the situation, but it made it worse.Brandon removed her hand from his face, as if she was some kinda plague that wa
Michelle slowly opened the door to her house, she was damn tired; Work got her stressedWalking in, she saw someone in her living room, it startled her.Beatrice turned when she heard the footsteps of someone - it was Michelle."Oh, it's you. You startled me" Michelle heaved a sigh of relief. Her right hand was on her chest.The Beatrice she knew, would laugh at how scared she was, but this one didn't say anything."Are you okay?" Judging from how Beatrice was looking, Michelle figured out that something was wrong."Why is life so cruel to me" Beatrice sniffled. Michelle immediately ran to meet her."Did something happen? Why are you here at this time of the day? Won't Brandon get angry?.... Tell me, is something wrong" Concern and curiousity was written on her face.Beatrice fell on her kneels, and started crying.******Michelle handed a cup of coffee to Beatrice
Gretchen watched as her boss's hands fisted, she knew what was happening - the boss was angry at her.She was no longer working at the company, she returned back to Italy to meet her boss."I gave you a simple job, and you couldn't do it. I didn't train you to be weak.""I am sorry ma'am" Gretchen bowed her head down."Beatrice is so heartbroken right now, this what was I was trying to avoid. I don't want her hurt in anyway, and that was the reason I told you to look for a better way to separate them" Mirabel lamented."But why do you care so much about Beatrice" Michelle was amused at how Mirabel cared for Beatrice."Because....Nevermind. Agent Gretchen, you have a candidate to escort, go now" Mirabel quickly changed the topic.********Mia somehow got information that Beatrice was in Michelle's house, so she headed there.Getting there, she saw both of them standing outside, hugging each other
They couldn't get their gazes off each other's face. Brandon's business partner was confused at what Brandon was staring at, since he was facing Brandon he couldn't see what was behind, so he turned and saw a....... Beautiful lady.His lips pursed as he saw her. No offense the lady was beautiful, that he also joined them in the staring competition.Beatrice was uncomfortable at the way both of them were staring at her, she cleared her throat and said, "Can I have your orders?"."What a beauty" Unknown to him, the Beautiful lady is Brandon's ex wife.Brandon took his gaze away from her. He didn't expect to see her in London working as a waitress. Such a Shame ; she had everything when she was with him, now she had to work so hard."I have been advised not to take alcohol lately, so strawberry juice would do" The other one replied, while Brandon didn't say a thing."Strawberry juice" She repeated after him a
Mia, Cade and Trisha were watching a movie in the sitting room, when all of a sudden Trisha stood up."I will be back aunt, I need to go see mum. I want to talk to her" Trisha informed."Okay, pretty" Mia said and Trisha walked away. She moved her gaze from the TV to stare at Cade."Hmm, are you okay?" She asked when she noticed his mood."I don't know" Cade muttered and ruffled his hair.Mia bit her lips, she stood from where she was sitting and went to sit on the couch Cade was sitting.She took his hands on hers and then stared at him."Talk to me" She urged."Even if it would hurt you?" He asked and Mia didn't know when she let go of his hands."What? How is it going to hurt me?" She asked curiously."I am thinking about her" He replied."Who? Your girlfriend?"."She ended it all, she broke up with me... I feel I am destined to be heartbroken always" He didn't let the te
Michael wasn't planning to shoot her, he just wanted to make her scared.Even if he wanted to get rid of her, he won't do it in the hotel where it would raise suspicions.The door opened in a loud bang and federal agents rushed in. They were more than ten.Micheal quickly brought the gun he was pointing at her head. He was literally surprised to see those agents. Why did they come?.He was still questioning himself when he saw Sarah and Clark admist the agents."I am sorry, dad" Sarah muttered to him with tears in her eyes.The agents all pointed their gun at him and surrounded him.It was now making sense to Micheal."We have been ordered to bring you to Italy,,, you have to come with us" One of them said.Micheal became dumbfounded. There was no way out.He kept the gun on the floor and lifted his hands up. He cast a glare at Mirabel, then at Sarah.&n
Beatrice angrily walked into the house. She had gone to Mr Emerson's house and the agents scanned her before allowing her in.Some of them couldn't help but wonder what was going on with her,,,because the way she walking was as if she was going for a war.She walked into the sitting room and there she met him reading a book."Whatever business you have with your brother, settle it and free us from his threats!" She said, with so much anger in her voice.Mr Emerson dropped the book on the table, and gave her his attention.The security guards had already informed him about her arrival.His brother?For a moment he was taken aback,,,how did she find out?"Calm down, Beatrice" He said calmly."So everything that happened is because of you, you are responsible for all our misfortunes" She yelled."How did you come to know about it?" He asked."That doesn't matter, all t
Beatrice came out of the bathroom and didn't see Brandon in the room.She had changed into one of Brandon's bathrobe and a towel was tied around her hair. She sat on the bed and started thinking."I don't know if I am making the right choice right now, like seriously did I do the right thing forgiving him?Well, it wasn't his fault tho, it absolutely wasn't. I am afraid the person who framed me might do something bad now that we are back together, and also I am curious to know what Brandon's dad is hiding. I should probably call him"She searched around and didn't see her phone, that was when it dawned on her that she had forgotten it in Brandon's car."And where on earth is Brandon" She muttered and stood up.She walked to the door and held the handle, she was about opening it when it opened and Brandon walked in."Speak of the devil, here you are".Brandon smiled, he walked in
A goodbye kiss" She repeated."I don't understand...Are you leaving or something, did I offend you, are you angry because I pretended to..." Brandon was so anxious."No, Brandon. It's just that I can't stay here, I can't be with you,,,at least not now" She told him, the last part was muttered to herself, she could only hear it."But why? I already apologised, I know i was a dickhead but I have changed, I will do my best to make you and Trisha happy, just don't leave" He begged."Your dad, he...Actually he told me not to tell you this, but I think you should know. I overheard him talking to someone on the phone, he said..." She paused, she didn't think it was right to say it because she had made a promise not to tell anyone."He said what?" Brandon asked curiously."Nothing, afterall a promise is a promise. But you should be careful out there, and please take care of yourself. I don't want my daughter to become fatherless"."That
Pearl got to the hotel, she walked into the room and there she saw him waiting for her, he was standing near the window, staring at space."Bonjour" She greeted and bowed.Michael turned, he stared at her and smile."How loyal you are to come immediately I called, I am impressed" He said to her."My pleasure" Pearl replied."You must be wondering why I suddenly called, right?"."Is it obvious" Pearl chuckled."Very. Now listen, I want you to do something for me... Whenever you are going anywhere with Mr Emerson, please always text me the address of where you are going to, especially if it deals with business meetings" He explained."May I ask the reason?"."I am afraid not"."Then I can't and won't. It's my job to protect him, not to share his location to people"."Are you going against my order?" Micheal frowned."Of course not, it's just that I can't. At least tell me a good reason, or go mee
People didn't expect to see the CEO kneel on the floor, they didn't.Brandon didn't want to give up, he loved her so much and was ready to do anything to earn her forgiveness.So when she didn't want to reply him, he went down on his knees."I just want to hear it from you that you've forgiven me" He muttered."This is serious...What is going on...Why is he kneeling before her?...Did he offend her...I can't just believe this...The lady is so lucky, it is normally hard for celebrities to do this in public..." Comments were heard and cameras were clicking. Beatrice blinked her lashes so fast, she didn't expect him to behave that way."Brandon, this is...this is embarrassing" She said to him."I am willing to get embarrassed, please forgive me" He begged, tears came out of his eyes.It was so emotional that some fans didn't know when tears came out of their eyes.Trisha wiped her tears with her palm
Mirabel stood at a distance and watched how Mrs Helen and her husband drove into the compound."I can do this" She muttered and walked towards the gate and pressed the bell button.The entrance gate opened and the security man walked out."Looking for someone?" He asked her."Just tell them Mirabel is here" She told the man."But...okay" The man walked inside and later returned to open the gate for her.Mirabel was allowed in, she was directed to the sitting room and there she met them."This unexpected visit of yours is actually scaring me. Why have you come back?" Mrs Helen asked."I see you are now better. Beatrice is just so dumb that she didn't ask herself why her blood didn't match with yours, I guess it's for the better" Mirabel said and smiled."So you have been spying on us?" Mr Alexander asked, with his brows furrowed."You video called me two days ago but you didn't tell me you will come visiting"
Mummy what are you talking about? we have to go meet daddy, he's hurt."Beatrice ignored Trisha's words, she kept the passport in her bag and closed her laptop.She was still arranging some stuffs when the door suddenly opened.Two ladies walked in, they were dressed in suit."Who are you" Beatrice asked them, she quickly dragged Trisha closer to her."I am agent Pearl" One of them introduced. "We don't want to waste your time, so let's get straight to the point. Mr Emerson sent us to bring you and your daughter to him" She told Beatrice."Didn't he tell you the reason?" Beatrice further asked."According to what just happened to his son, he wants to make sure you are both okay, that's what he told us. Please come with us, we have no time" The other lady replied.Beatrice thought for a while, she knew it wasn't right to trust the ladies in front of her; what if they were kidnappers or imp
