"Please, Sir! I didn't do it. They framed me up, it was one of them that did it," Amanda said immediately as they got to the manager's office."Shut up Amanda, just shut up. I cannot believe you are causing trouble already on your first day of resumption when the one you caused before your suspension is yet to be solved," the manager said with anger."Sir, please hear me out. I'm saying the truth_""Quiet. I don't want to hear a word from you. If you do not want to worsen the situation. Just keep quiet," the manager said which made Amanda quiet but she was already crying."Do you think I'm going to believe you? The five of them said they saw you do it and you want to lie about it so you wouldn't end up paying for your damage. Does this place look like a joke to you? I only wanted to promote you to the VIP section because of how hardworking you are but you messed Everything up just on the first day. You are very troublesome and this time around, you wouldn't serve any suspension but wo
Anna was very happy that she had finally seen who would help Amanda.She asked Marcus to follow her to a corner which he obeyed without asking her anything."Please Amanda is in big trouble and might be arrested soon by the police," Anna said, shaking all over."What happened?" Marcus asked her."She got into trouble with some customers and broke an expensive wine which she cannot be able to pay for so the manager wants to involve the police," Anna explained quickly without swallowing any saliva."Please do something. I'm begging you to do something. I don't want anything to happen to Amanda please, don't allow the manager to get her arrested. I know she is innocent and got framed. I overheard everything," Anna said."Calm down okay? I will do something. She would not get arrested," Marcus promised."Please go ahead. There is no time. I'm sure the police are already on their way," Anna said in a panic.Marcus quickly grabbed his phone and called Eric. He was the only one who could hel
Eric was quiet all through the journey to Amanda's place. He kept thinking about everything. He couldn't understand why Amanda was so stubborn.It wasn't the first time she was having issues in the club but she adamantly still chose to work there. He sighed as he tried to control how was at that moment.He looked at her through the pulldown mirror, she was looking lost in thought and at the same time disturbed.He sighed and concentrated on the road.Amanda kept thinking about how she would face Eric who had once again come to her rescue. She didn't want to feel indebted to him but sadly she already is which made her feel so downcast."Why does she always have to be in trouble and who was behind this? Who asked the manager to set her up like this and do such a thing to her," she thought, feeling disturbed.She looked at Eric, but he was concentrating fully on the road, she knew he was very angry and pissed off with her but she didn't blame herself.She was framed which she couldn't es
Chapter 101.Amanda called Gabriel on phone and explained everything that happened in the club. He expressed how angry he was with the manager and didn't blame her. He invited her over to his office so they would talk more regarding the issue and know what to do next.Amanda quickly prepared to leave for Gabriel's office. Gabriel had promised to send the address on the phone after their conversation, so she believed he would do so before she finished preparing. She checked around the house if everything was okay before walking out of her door to start leaving.When she locked her door, she remembered that he was yet to send her address so she decided to call Gabriel to remind him that he was yet to send address. She picked up her phone and was about to call him when his call came in."Hey, I was about to call you to remind you that you are yet to send the address to me," Amanda said to Gabriel over the phone."I sent a car, it should have arrived at your place," Gabriel replied which
Amanda and Gabriel left safely for his place. He welcomed her in and then proceeded to show her the guest room where she would be staying for the night.After Amanda settled in late into the night. She came downstairs to join Gabriel in the living room, she met him drinking alone while staring at nothing. She smiled and tiptoed towards him. She snatched the glass of wine and drank all of it.Gabriel looked up at her with a frown on his face."Why did you do that?" He asked her, pretending to be angry. Amanda only laughed because she knew that he wasn't angry and was just pretending to be."Oh about that, do you have to ask your guest when he or she looks like they are interested in drinking with you?" Amanda asked him."You just snatched my drink, you didn't look like you wanted to drink with me. You would have taken a glass and poured some for yourself if you really wanted to have a drink with me," Gabriel said and looked up at her smiling, pretty face.He swallowed hard and quickly
Amanda was ready to leave the next morning, she couldn't stop thinking about what happened between her and Gabriel. It took her totally surprised that facing Gabriel again would be so difficult.She thought about it all night and couldn't sleep, she least expected what happened between them, it was still a shock to her. She no longer felt safe with him and the only way to go about what happened was to leave. It was better she goes back to her apartment and bears the risk of staying in it even as the police had asked her to stay away for some time.She was still preparing to leave when a soft knock came on her door. She immediately knew it was Gabriel because there was no other person with them in the house. Her heart started racing wildly as she thought of seeing him again, but before she could say anything, he opened the door and came inside.Their gaze locked with each other before Amanda looked away."I'm sorry for what happened Amanda," Gabriel said immediately and went on his kne
It has been two days since the incident between Amanda and Gabriel while it has been a week since the club incident happened.Harvey decided to act low so she knew that Eric was already suspecting her and wouldn't hesitate to strike if she attacked Amanda again. She knew how protective he was when it came to anything associated with him, he never joked with them.She hadn't given up yet on fighting Amanda and was still very much interested as she still saw her as a threat and someone who she is meant to pull down but she decided that she would feed carefully in order not to attract Eric's wrath as she already knew that he was against her after what happened at the club.She had been restless and had been thinking that he would involve the cops and get her arrested but it made her surprised that he didn't, maybe because he wanted this to sound like a warning to her to never try out such again but she wasn't going to have that because Amanda stole what was rightfully hers.She had been
Gabriel and Amanda later left together to purchase a few things which Amanda was lacking at home. They laughed and also joked, playing like children.Unknown to them, angry watchful eyes were watching their every move. With every step they took, the angry eyes which turned out to be that of a sleek lady will sneer and imagine how Amanda was going to be killed soon if care is not taken.She hated Amanda so much because she thinks that she stole everything from her, starting from good grades in school to being a good child. It was a very unbearable thing to see and now she was happy and laughing with the man she wanted for herself.It would never happen, she vowed to herself. She felt like starting the car and running into Amanda but she held herself back. She might end up in jail for it if she is not careful.She wanted to get away with whatever that she happened to do to her, she cannot bear suffering for her sake as she didn't worth it.She watched them enter the grocery store togeth
