The next person brought in was Robert. The case against him wasn't as bad as Diana's but it was still bad. He had aided in the assassination of Fred and his wife and also the attempted murder of Beauty and he had illegally taken funds from his son's company. He was sentenced to twenty years imprisonment with hard labour and no parole. Mason had wanted him to stay in prison till he dies but Beauty pleaded on his behalf. She knew he was angry but Robert was still his father. She couldn't watch him do something that he'll regret one day. Speaking of parents, no one had seen or heard from Rose since she came to the hospital. " Miss Eunice. Do you have anything to say to the court today?" The judge asked when it was Eunice's turn." I'm not guilty." She said without battling an eye. Salvatore had sent her divorce papers immediately she was arrested. He cut her off from everything he had and warned his people not to help her. He would have done same to Diana if she wasn't his daughter. He
" Wow! You look stunning!" Celeste gasped when she was done with the makeup. " Stop it." Beauty laughed." I know you've always been the beauty in the family but this, this is outstanding." " Thank you. But why do I need make up? What's the occasion?" " You'll see." Celeste winked. " Are you guys trying to sell me off?" She chuckled. " Relax." " It'd better be something good."" When has Mason not ever done extraordinary?" "Never."" So relax." They were still talking when the door bell rang and Clyde entered after with four shopping bags." Delivery for you miss." Clyde said and Beauty smiled. " Thanks, Clyde." " You're welcome." " Clyde, have you seen my husband?" " No ma'am." He said and she sighed. " Okay. When you do see him, tell him not to come home." She smirked. " Ookay." He said and left. " Seriously shopping? He went shopping without me?" Beauty scoffed. " Relax. There's a card." " Let me see." ' I would love to see the most beautiful angel tonight at Sapph
" No no. George, you're not doing this. It's the FBI......"" I can handle myself." " We all know how good they are in twisting words. They could make you admit to what you didn't do." " Are you coming or not?" He asked and she walked after him grumbling. ....." Thank you for coming into my life, Mason Alaric." Beauty said all smiles as she walked with Mason in the dark. The others had left for the after party but they stayed behind." I should be thanking you. If I hadn't met you that day at the mall, I would have been stuck with Celeste." Mason groaned at the end. " We wouldn't want that now, would we?" She laughed heartily. " I have to admit, this proposal is ten times better than mine." " Yours was like a guy planning a rushed marriage for his pregnant girlfriend." He teased and she squinted her eyes." It's not my fault." She sighed. " I love you, Beauty Logan." He said pulling her to himself suddenly. " I love you too, Mason Alaric." She smiled and kissed him affectionat
" George, please. Just do this for us." Elsa pouted. " Okay, fine." He said and Elsa clapped. " Gentlemen, ladies. Meet your CEO." Beauty said all smiles and they all cheered. " As the new president of this company, I'll do everything to ensure the smooth running and management of this company. I exist for this company starting from today. I'll do everything in my power to make us the best in the country, then in the world." Beauty said and they clapped. " Starting from today, every inefficient staff must be relived from his or her duties with immediate effect. We need responsible workers to take this company to higher places. You'll ensure that this is carried out efficiently, otherwise." She continued enlightening them on the new plans she had made for the company's growth. She appointed new heads for each department then she gave room for George to give his speech. " I never really expected this so I didn't prepare anything. Thank you so much for giving me this opportunity lit
George reserved a VIP room at a five star restaurant for the dinner. He could there earlier than the sisters and he began having doubts about them coming. They had scheduled the dinner for six pm and it was already thirty minutes past the time. " Sorry we're late." Elsa said waking in with Beauty behind her. They both looked extremely beautiful as expected of Logan's children. " It's alright. I just got here." He shrugged. " Beauty couldn't decide on what to wear." Elsa chuckled. " You always look good." George murmured. " I already placed our orders." " Cool." Beauty smiled. The food arrived some minutes later and they were about digging when George stopped them. " What's wrong?" " We're missing one person." He said looking at the time." George, I hope you're not planning anything stupid." Beauty eyed him. " There she is." He winked. " Sorry, I'm late. The flight was tiring." Celine said taking a seat beside him. " You didn't tell us you were inviting her. We would have g
“ Welcome to Mystic restaurant. “ Beauty said all smiles as she attended to a customer. The lady stared at her from head to toe and she looked away. The first code of the restaurant was to take shit from anyone if you want to your job. Funny, right? That's the only way she could survive. The job was paying well but the customers were annoying but she had to put up with them everyday. There were some loving ones who managed to lift her day. " Is she going to serve me? “ The lady asked her partner after checking her out. " Of course. She's a waitress, that's her job. “ The man who accompanied her sent absentmindedly. It was obvious the lady didn't want Beauty to serve her. " I'm sorry Ms, did I do something wrong?" Beauty asked. “ You did everything wrong! Your presence here is suffocating!" The lady barked and Beauty gulped. “ I'm sorry. I'll send for my partner. " She said and left for the kitchen. “ Hey Daniel could you attend to the customer on table four please?" “ That's arr
The next morning, Elsa followed Beauty to the supermarket since she had no shift no the restaurant. Elijah opened up early and some few junior staff were already there. “ Hi Elijah. " Elsa said with a huge smile as they walked into the supermarket. “ Hey pretty. " Elijah winked playfully and she chuckled. “ Thought you were still in Francisco?" “ Nah got back yesterday. " She lied. She had actually been back for almost four days. “ So where's my San Francisco package?" “ I'm sorry. Was there supposed to be a package?" Elsa teased and they both laughed. “ Hey am I invisible here?" Beauty pouted and Elijah chuckled. “ You're never invisible." He said and hugged her. " What's my job? “ Elsa asked. " Your job is to sit and be quiet. " Cara said walking in. " Ms Cara, don't you look ravishing today? Love your shoes." Elsa winked and Cara shook her head. “ Just don't insult any customers today. " Cara said. “ Me? Y'all know I'm a good girl. I would never. By the way, Ms Cara I d
Beauty waited till most of the customers were gone before she came out of the restaurant. Her loan was due in five days and she just got fired from her well paying job. What was she going to do? Her mind quicky went to her high school friend, who was into escort. She had tried to persuade her into doing it but Beauty was not easily swayed. “ You'll die a virgin. " Her friend would always mock her. “ Here goes nothing." She whispered as she dialed her line. “ Beauty, what's up?" Tonia said. There was a heavy noise in the background. “ Hey. I need your help. " Beauty said. “ My help?"“ I just got fired and my loans are due. "“ You need a guy. Alright meet me at Saltos hotel in two hours. We'll discuss. " Tonia said and hung up. “ Great, Beauty. You're going to fuck a stranger for money. Great! “ She muttered as she crossed the road absentmindedly. She heard a loud screech and she quickly jumped off the road. “ Hey!" She exclaimed. ...Mason went straight to his office when he

" You have no evidence on me." Robert yelled at the interrogator."I'd advise you stay quiet and cooperate with us for your own good." The interrogator said. " I'm not saying anything till I see my lawyer." " You do not need a lawyer Mr Alaric. What you need is imprisonment." He said and left." Hello father." Mason grinned from ear to ear. " How do you like your new home? Although it would be much worse than this in a few days." He smirked." You dare put your father behind bars for a woman!"" No. I did it for me. I wanted you dead but my wife had a very kind heart. She suggested I hand you over to the police. You should thank her." Mason said exuding a dangerous aura. " You would kill your own father?" Robert batted his lashes. " Why do you sound surprised? I should have done so a long time ago. You took everything from us because of your greed. You agreed to hand over the company to us once we finish college but you didn't. Instead you tried to buy off all members of the board
" You! What are you doing here? This is an enclosed meeting!" Eunice banged her fists on the table. " And why didn't I get an invite?" Beauty asked tapping her newly manicured nails on the table. " You're not a part of this company." Eunice glared at her. " I see.. I'll take my seat." Beauty said and walked to the second vacant chair, the president's seat." Who are you and what are you doing?" An elderly man asked." Mr Donovan, who I am is none of your business." She smiled. " Get up." Eunice sneered." Why should I? I am after all, the only oldest legal child of Fred and Bella Logan." Beauty said and they all gasped. " That's a lie. The sisters died in the accident with their parents." Mr Donovan said. " Then how am I alive? Proceed with the meeting. I dare one person to question me again." She frowned. " You were about forcing them to sell their shares to you." " I'm not answering to you." " You'd better!" Beauty snapped. " You were also about to sign over ownership of the
" You!" Beauty yelled. Fear written all over her face. " You shouldn't have survived." Diana said with a wide grin. " You're strong, I admire you for that but you have to die. If I'm not the one making Mason happy, then no one else can." " You won't gain anything by killing me." " I won't but you'll be dead." " Don't do this. You still have a chance to move on. Don't ruin your life over a stupid obsession." " Too late for that." Diana said and pulled out a gun. "Seems Mason doesn't care about you as I had thought. He knows the threat against your life, yet he leaves you alone, unprotected." " You know nothing." " I know everything. I guess he's seen that you're only going to cause trouble for him. He's abandoned you. Making it easier for me to kill you." She laughed. Beauty tried getting up but Diana sprayed something on her before she could. " It weakens you. You won't be able to use your legs till you're dead." Diana smirked. " Don't do this." Beauty cried when she saw her
" Let me go." Celeste struggled with the man as he tried to drag her out. " No use struggling woman. We're not going to hurt you." The man sighed. " Did Diana send you?" " Who the fuck is Diana?" .....Ryan just got off a phone call and he faced Mason who had an expectant look on his face. " She's the one." Ryan sighed. " Why is she showing up now?" " I don't know. I'll ask Alessio to look on it."" No. Alessio has a lot on his hands right now. We won't bother him anymore." He said and Ryan nodded. He stared at the sleeping beauty before and he smiled. He's never letting her out of his sight again. " Clyde caught someone trying to escape. I need you to question her for me." Mason said to Ryan who creased his brows in confusion. " Celeste was caught at a motel planning to escape." He whispered." Oh, why would she be running if she did nothing?" " That's what I want you to find out. I can't go myself...."" I understand." He nodded and left. " What's going on?" Beauty snappe
