"Gabriella come on, you're taking forever!" Martin yells for the umpteenth time but I ignore him again, still trying to round up with my makeup.
He was the one who said I should look pretty so he better deal with the consequences.
"I'm coming in!" I hear him holler but I'm quick to lock the door so he can't get in, hopefully I can frustrate him enough till he changes his mind about taking me with him. My head doesn't think straight when too many people are around and I'm nervous as it is.
"Gabriella, you forgot that this is my house and I have the spare key to your room." He reminds me and I hiss.
"You also forget that you're such a messy animal, it'd take you hours to actually find them." I reply and he shuts up, finally giving up on trying to intimidate me.
I peep through the door to see a distraught Martin furiously typing away on his phone.

Liam."Well, I'll leave you two alone. We'll talk later Liam." As soon as those words left her mouth, I snapped."Wait Gabriella!" I yell after her but she was already lost in the crowd."Get off me!" I push Layla off aggressively and go after Gabriella so I could clear the misunderstanding and tell her Layla is not my girlfriend, well at least not anymore. I spot her leaving the club and I thank God she hasn't gone too far, at least I could explain things to her so she doesn't hate me more than she already does."Hey Ella!" I yell out her name as loud as I could and she looks back at me with raised eyebrows. "Huh, aren't you supposed to be in there?" She asks and I sigh."I really need to talk to you first." I reply back and she smiles a little, making her look even more beautiful."About what?" She asks."I'm so sorry about what just happened in

Gabrielle "You are really starting to scare me Gabrielle!" Mom yells furiously, walking into my office with her arms crossed and I could tell from her facial expression that she wasn't joking."What exactly did I do wrong this time?" I retort rudely and she frowns."Mind the way you talk to me young lady." She yells in my face and I almost roll my eyes at how dramatic she was being when I haven't even said anything."Whatever mom. May I at least know why the hell you're yelling at me?" I asks impatiently and she unfolds her hands and starts pacing around impatiently."You have been playing nice girl with your sister for way too long and I'm starting to get worried. Did you know that bratty sister of yours has been offered back her job at 'AT' and to top it off there are rumors that she and Liam are going out!" She spits out and I frown."So what mom? How is that any of my business?" I respond

Liam. "Hey mom, I heard you asked to see me." I greet, taking a sit beside her and I'm quick to notice that she had a very serious look on her face."Yes I did and what I have to say to you is very important son but you may not like what I'm about to tell you." She replies nervously and her tones scares me a little. "You're scaring me mom, what is it?" I ask worriedly, she sighs."As you may have noticed, the fabrics that were used for the upcoming collection cost us a lot including the other expenses and that has taken a toll on us financially..." She says and I chime in. "What's the problem mom? Get to the point." I ask impatiently, noticing that the stress lines on her forehead are more visible and her eyes look tired. "Various shareholders have been complaining about how terrible our financial situation is because they had suggested we use cheaper fabrics for our next collection but you know

Gabriella."Good morning Martin." I chirp happily hoping that today wasn't gonna be like yesterday and the day before cause for reasons best known to him, he'd become distant and snobbish and I didn't like where our friendship was heading."Morning." He replies coldly, throwing his car keys on the kitchen counter."Aren't you going to work?" I asked with raised eyebrows, my heart skipping a beat when I see him with a luggage."Are you m...moving out?" I ask, my eyes already preparing for the waterfall that was going to flood out if he nods positive."No, I'm only going on a business trip and I also took permission to take a few days off to clear my head. I'll only be gone for a week. Take care." He responds dryly but I wasn't having any of that."What exactly is your problem with me Martin? You've been acting like a dick for the last three days. You don't talk to me, you don't eat the food I ma

Gabrielle. "My head hurts." I complain to Layla as soon as she walks into my office."Should I get you some pain killers miss?" She asks."You shouldn't be asking that you fool and while you're at it, get me something to eat as well. I haven't had anything to eat today and I'm starving." I say to her and she nods calmly before attempting to leave and then stopping abruptly."What now?" I ask irritatedly."I'm sorry miss, it's just that I forgot to tell you that a man by the name Martin Deville is here to see you and he says it's important." She informs me and I frown.What exactly does that fool want now?"Let him in." I tell her boredly and she gives a quick bow before walking out.The annoying figure of Gabriella's best friend graces my vision and I immediately had a bad feeling about his visit. Martin isn't the type to just go around paying unnecessary visits to pe

Gabriella.Working at AT without Jake has definitely not being a pleasant experience for me.The new boss Corey, has made it his mission to frustrate me to no end and I'm starting to think Trisha is behind his ridiculous attitude towards me although part of the reasons could be our first encounter but judging by how mean and unfriendly he is, I'm going to assume it's cause of Trisha.Rumor has it that Trisha has successfully seduced him and that she has him wrapped around her fingers. As much as I think it's true, I'm still hoping it's all just a rumor cause I can't imagine surviving Trisha's indirect taunts everyday. It's starting to drain me.Right now, I'm on my way to the office from my lunch break with Martha, who decided to stop by a friend's office before coming back up. I walk into the elevator and the familiar face of Liam puts a smile on my face."Hi." I greet shyly, earning a curious stare from

Gabriella I run into the hospital breathing heavily like someone who just ran a marathon for nine hours straight. My lungs feel ogged and I keep gasping for air as different unpleasant thoughts kept running through my head and I hope and praye what I heard wasn't true or that at least the worst was over now.I run towards the nurse at the reception who raises her brows cautiously as soon as she saw me panting like I was on the verge of dying."How can I help you miss? Do you need some water?" She asks politely, eyeing her colleague who quickly rushes to get me a glass of water."My relative was brought in here about an hour ago and I was informed it's a car accident. I want to see him." I breath out quickly, gulping down the glass of water she handed to me."His name?" She asks and I almost couldn't say it cause it still sounds so crazy and unbelievable."M...Martin Deville." I tell h

Liam "I swear to God, I can't stand mom anymore!" I hiss, angrily barging into Corey's room."Now, tell me why the hell you barged into my room and don't forget to explain to me why should I care about your problems with mom?" He asks in a mock annoyed tone and I huff at his childish behaviour. "I'm not in the mood for your dumb questions Corey. I'm in a bad mood just in case you're too blind to notice and I'm here to vent." I point out in frustration. "I don't think I'm the right person to vent with or throw tantrums with and just in case you don't remember or you're too stupid to realise it, I don't like you. I absolutely detest you and I could care less what goes on in your life." He replies and I chuckle."That is exactly why I'm here to hide out from mom cause I know this is the last place she'd think to look for me." I snap back at him and his facial expression turns sore."So typical

LIAM "Mom, you still haven't told me what you're doing here and why you're sitting so quietly," I said to my mom, who suddenly walked in here about ten minutes ago and still hasn't said a word. "This is my company Liam and I can walk into wherever I like, whenever I like," she retorted and I couldn't help but stare back at disdainfully. "Agreed mom, it's your company and there's no doubt about that but just a reminder this is my office and you can't just barge in here and not tell me exactly what brings you here in the first place," I snapped back at her, not exactly in the mood to deal with her tantrums today. "Let me ask you something Liam, do you really love me as your mother? Do you genuinely care about me l

Gabrielle. I walked into the hotel with my head high, trying as much as I could to keep my face as expressionless as possible. I knew for a fact that my decision to come here was literally me walking straight into the lion's den but lately, I can't help but enjoy putting myself in difficult positions. I couldn't even bring myself to tell my mom about this cause I knew for a fact that she would try to talk me out of it by giving me a million reasons why it would be a bad idea and since I didn't really care much about her opinions anymore, I decided against letting her know anything. At the end of the day, even she would do exactly what I'm doing cause we're not that different after all. "Hi, good afternoon," I greeted the hotel receptionist with a small smile.

Gabriella. "Is everything okay Gaby?" Fabian asked worriedly. "Me? Of course, I am. Do I look like something's wrong with me?" I replied, staring back at him confusedly. "No, it's not Gaby. It's just, I'm worried about how you're holding up mentally. I mean come one dear, I know you and I know very well that you are acting like everything is okay with you but then with everything that's been happening around you lately, I know for a fact that it's affecting you mentally and I want you to know that you can always talk to me about anything and that I'll always be here for you when you need me," he replied and I sighed. Truth is, he isn't exactly wrong about everything not bei

Gabriella. FLAMES! That was all I could see right at this very moment. Everything around me spun around in 360° and my heart felt like it was just about to jump right out of my body. "Excuse me Sir, what's happening? How did this happen?" I could hear Liam faintly asking the people around but right after that, my eardrums started to feel like they were burning from the inside. I could neither hear or see anything aside from the terrible fire that the firefighters were trying so hard to put out. A few feet away from me was an ambulance that I suppose is here to carry Katherine's body away. Apparently, they found a gunshot wound to her stomach which means that definitely, her death is

Gabrielle. My eyes scanned the environment as soon as I parked my car and as much as I wasn't expecting anything worth looking at, I didn't expect the place to look so horrifying and disgusting. To think my silly rage and my thirst for revenge actually drove me here today just so I can personally teach that loud brat a lesson. "Doesn't exactly look like a palace, does it?" a familiar husky voice says suddenly and I turn around to see Chris, one of my mom's hitmen who I had the misfortune of having to inherit. "I wasn't exactly expecting to see a palace or anything but I'll be honest, it's worse than I thought," I confessed and he stared back at me coldly. "It's actually the most decent one we h

Gabriella. I paced around the living room impatiently as countless theories and possibilities started to flood my thoughts at once, making me feel slightly nauseous and nervous. I've been pretty restless for the last few days after noticing Liam's strange behaviour and as much as I don't want to admit it, I have a feeling I'm the reason he's suddenly being so off and distant. There's definitely something he's keeping from me and the fact that he wasn't sharing whatever it was that bothered him made me feel ten times worse and even if whatever he's going to say would hurt my feelings, I needed to know as soon as possible so I don't end up losing my mind over it. He normally used to come back home around 6pm but nowadays, he suddenly started to come home pretty late an

Gabrielle. "Do I really have to come with you?" Mia sulked for the umpteenth time, still trying to get out of coming with me to see Gabriella. "Yes, you have to come with me Mia and I already told you this a thousand times. I don't think I can go there by myself and I need you to help me keep up with the pretence," I respond, feeling sick and tired of having to repeat myself. "Why me though? You know I hate her just as much as you do!" she said and I scowled. "Really Mia? Really?" I asked and she rolled her eyes. "Okay, maybe not as much as you do but I still hate her and I'm not exactly the best at pretending. I don't even get

GABRIELLE. "She did what?" I ask in a sharp tone, staring at my mom with wide eyes. "You heard me right sweetie. Your stupid sister had the effrontery to visit Martin's dad and she even had the audacity to threaten him like the fool she is." Mom repeats herself and honestly, I'm surprised. I never would have imagined that Ella would be stupid enough to walk into the lion's den and even go as far as threatening the lion. Even I, would not do something so foolish. "Does that girl have any idea who David Deville is? Didn't she do her research?" I ask rhetorically, shaking my head at how terrible the consequences of her actions would be. Martin's dad is the complete opposite of Martin himself. While I'd say Martin is a big idiot who has no ambition and no sense of reasoning, his father would be the total opposite of that. Mr Devill

LIAM. "Stop staring at me like that." I hiss at Corey, who hasn't stop looking at me like I suddenly grew an extra head. "Why shouldn't I? Can't you see what's happening here? Mom called a family meeting, something she hasn't done in years just because of you. You really should be proud of yourself." He says, obviously trying to mock me. Mom had suddenly called yesterday and she asked that she wanted to meet with all five of us and it honestly had to be the most surprising thing ever because the last time she did something like this was the week dad died and for her to call this sort of gathering out of the blue means she's about to go off on someone and I have a feeling it's gonna be me. "Corey, Liam, not today." Tyler warns strictly. "Tell that to that idiot not me." I hiss under my breathe, earning a displeased look fr
