Flashing the mirror in his face, Gisella shouted with a step back." Don't you dare come any closer!"

A ray of light suddenly emerged from it, tolling him against the wall, some meters away from her.

" Ah–" He groaned in pain, transforming into Natasha.

Bemused and shocked at what her eyes just witnessed, she stammered.

" What?– Natasha?" She trembled. "You again?– Don't you ever get tired?" Gisella cried.

" Never will I get tired, Gisella!" She scoffed. "Not until I've made sure you spend the rest of your life in mystery." She laughed, sauntering closer to her.

"Do you think I'll let go just like that?– huh...? " She asked with a raised eyebrow.

Gisella just stared into her eyes, dumfounded by the whole happening. Natasha smiled with a quizzical look on her face, she sneered.

    Natasha stormed into her room and locked the door behind, furiously throwing the scarf on the floor as she stood in front of the mirror with her gaze fixed on her reflection." Damn it!! Gosh–I regret not killing you along with your bastard mother, Gisella. I so curse the day you were born–Argh!!!!" She yelled, thumping the items in front of the dressing mirror to the floor. Her breath rose and fell with rapid speed, a wolfish gaze lingered in her eyes." No matter what it takes, Gisel– I'll surely accomplish my mission. I'll make sure I take your whole family along with me if its the last thing I do " She cursed.Natasha swiftly pulled out the drawer and picked out some charms.

"Gosh !!– what should I do now to get her out of my way? She's now like a pain in my back. I can't stand her any longer." She mumbled with a depressed gaze.Agnes gazed at her from the entrance, worried." What's wrong with her?" She wondered. " I've never seen her like this before– Should I ask her?" She inched forward but instinctively paused. "No, no, I don't think she'll like to talk to me about it. Let me just mind my business" She low whispered." Aggie? " Gisella called from the stairs, approaching with Lizzy behind." Huh?– who called? " She queried, turning towards the direction of the voice. She jolted, seeing Gisella." Oh, sorry, Miss Gisella– I didn't know you were the one." She answered with a bow." It's okay –" She titled her head with a furrowed brow. " Bu

Her gaze travelled down to her father's portrait in front of the mirror with a sigh; a faint smile spread on her face." I'll make sure I complete all your dreams dad– I promise to make your company the greatest and world's best. Trust me." She added. Not wasting anymore time, she gorgeously picked up some files from her drawer and trod out of the room.Natasha sauntered out of her room with her gaze fixed on her phone while she scanned through it.

Paola's voice echoed from the other end of the phone." Fine, I guess " She answered absent mindedly, still gazing at the car behind her through the mirror, wondering." Hey, girl, is everything okay?
