Stella grinned.
"Foolish girl..." she mumbled.Stella turned around rubbing her phone gently in her palm.She had a cruel smirk at the end of her lips.She proudly adjusted her clothes "I won't allow anyone take me for a fool, not now, not ever."She turned around and saw her father climbing down the stairs.Stella walked up to him wearing a warm smile."You look good today daddy" she grinned.Mr Chancy raised his brows "really?"She nodded "of course dad."He shrugged "I guess I should feel proud."She nodded smiling "you should dad."He walked over to the living room and Stella followed him behind quietly.She watched as her father sat down and she sat beside him.Stella cleared her throat "Daddy he is coming today.""Who??" He asked adjusting on the couch."My fiance" she answered happily.Mr Chancy laughed "really? I can't wait to meet him."She nodded "I know that dad, I would be going toStella wore a warm smile, she held Louis's hand as they walked into the house like a couple."He is here dad...." Stella said calling her father's attention.Both Mr Gabriel and her father turned around.Mr Chancy smiled standing up to his feet.Louis was very nervous as he watched the old man approach them.He took a glance at Stella who nudged him."Don't worry, my father doesn't bite" she grinned.He took a deep breath."Hello sir..." Louis greeted bowing humbly.Mr Chancy walked closer and stood before them staring at Louis's face."You look very familiar..." He said peering closer at Louis's face.Louis could feel hot sweats soaking his armpit, he just wanted the ground to open up and swallow him at the juncture.Louis shurgged nervously looking totally speechless."You might know him dad but we would talk about that later" Stella said breaking the silence.Mr Chancy nodded "of course, pardon me young man but
Stella woke up to her phone blaring under her pillow.She turned to the other side of the bed wearing a frown."Can't I get one good sleep on this world?" She cried out rubbing her hand beneath her nose.She grabbed her phone from under the pillow, she turned off the call and tossed the phone to the left side of the bed.Not long the phone started ringing again.She grabbed one of the pillows and placed it over her ear "oh please stop...."Then a knock came at the door.She opened her eyes "I just give up, goodness this world is so noisy.""Who is it?" She yelled struggling to stand from the bed.Finally she was on her feet, she tried putting her slippers on, she moved her leg countless times searching for where the slippers might be.She put them on and stood on her feet heading to the door."Who is it?" She cried out again forcing the door open."Good morning ma'am" the maids greeted.Stella slapped her.The mai
Mr Chancy was sitting comfortably in his living room with a glass of juice in his hand while watching the television.His eyes grew wide when thr death of Mr Gabriel was announced on the news, according to the newscaster, she said that Mr Gabriel committed suicide.He jerked to his feet at once looking extremely shocked.He shook his head gulping down the last amount of juice in the cup.He dropped the glass cup on the table and picked up his phone.Me Chancy dialed Mr Gabriel's line but it was switched off."This cannot be true" he mumbled trying to call his office.Luckily enough, his secretary picked the call and broke the same news to him."Oh my God!" He screamed looking even more shocked.Stella walked into the living room and was surprised to see her father looking that way."Dad... are you okay?" She asked walking closer to him.He shook his head at once "Stella I am not okay."She stared at his face for a while "wh
Mr Chancy took a deep sigh trying to find the perfect way to fix his words.Stella was beginning to get very anxious, she was even more confused and couldn't understand a single thing of what her father was talking about."Mr Gabriel was supposed to help me get what belongs to Selena though she is no where to be found" Mr Chancy said.Stella laughed loudly.He glared at her "why are you laughing? This isn't funny.""Dad it is funny, it really is, why are you acting like a child?" She asked.His eyes widened "Stella mind your words."Stella stood up adjusting her clothes.She flinged her hair "no dad, don't tell me that, how can you say something as ridiculous as Mr Gabriel trying to help you get what belongs to Selena, you and I know she came from the slums and owns nothing."He wagged his finger in front of her face at once "no... no... that's not true."Her eyes widened in shock, she couldn't understand what he was driving at.
Louis was in shock, he didn't expect Maryann to attack him like that.At once he reached down to her hand which was already making a mess out of his neat shirt.He forced her hand out of his shirt and few buttons followed falling on the floor.Louis gasped on seeing this, it got him even more provoked.Thelma watched with her hands folded, she didnt say another word.Louis pushed Maryann who fell to the ground in tears.She had hurt her knee and they were bruised and bleeding badly.Louis didn't care about that, he was so angry that he wanted to insult Maryann.Maryann overlooked the bruise on her knee though she was staggering so much to stand.Her tears were still lingering out of her eyes, flowing down to her neck."I loved you Louis, why do you have to do this to me? Why do you have to choose that witch over me?" She yelled."Call her a witch one more time and I will cut your tounge out!" Louis threatened."You would do
Louis rolled his eyes in disgust "Oh please Maryann, don't be such a cry baby and get yourself out of here."Maryann's eyes rolled.A car horn started blaring outside.The big gate was control with a remote control so it was so easy to get it open.Thelma pressed on a button in the remote control and the gate opened.It was Stella.She drove in.Thelma pressed on a red button on the remote control and the gate closed at once.She had a warm smile on her face as she watched Stella alight from the car.Thelma giggled."Isn't my daughter in-law the most beautiful woman ever" she arched her brow.Stella walked up to her and hugged her "of course she is."Stella turned around and noticed Maryann standing there."And what is this thing doing here?" Stella asked glaring at Maryann.Louis shurgged "you mean this beggar? she has come to do what she knows how to do best... beg!"Stella giggled walking closer to Maryann
Selena's POVIt has been two years since I found myself in this mysterious island and palace, it has been two years since my kidnap got plotted by someone whom I grew so much trust in.It has been two years since I was sold to the queen of this kingdom whom valued gold more than human life, two years of being punished unjustly, two years of being treated like trash by the royal family.At first I thought the prince whom I have grown so much feelings for would be better off in character than his mother and his so called betrothed, but I was wrong after all, they were all the same, treating the servants like nothing cause they believed that they were far more better than us.Though the place was so local, I heard that they had a hospital located in the kingdom, most times I couldn't help but wonder how the hospital would look like, perhaps everything there might also be made of hold.At the early hours of every new month, the villagers brought offerings to the
The princess arrived the queen's chambers as soon as she was called.Her maidens and bodyguards waited outside the chamber while she walked in to honor the queen's call.She bowed in front of the queen who pointed out to a seat and asked her to sit down.The princess obeyed and sat down quietly.The queen cleared her throat "you must have heard that the prince, my son was taken to the hospital today" she began.Princess Avril nodded "I asked to come to the hospital to pay my prince visit but I was told that you asked that I remain in the palace."The queen nodded.She didn't think it was right for every member of the royal family to abandon the palace and head to the hospital as a coup could easily be planned in their absence."I had my reasons princess Avril" she said.The princess nodded "I understand.""Princess Avril, the prince, your would be husband and future king is critically ill and would need a huge favour from you to surv
