One Night With The Billionaire 46
"Maria told Gabriella I needed to see her in my office the next 10 minutes" Richard, who just returned from lunch, said to one of his staff while going upstairs, She didn't have much to say, even though she was confused about how Mr. Wong passed the message to her. " What could be the reason for this? I thought they were supposed to be married. Why did he sound that way? " There were a lot of questions trooping in and out of Maria's hand and she seemed even more confused. She decided to go deliver the message passed on to her. " She got to Gabriella's office and she was quite busy with something, but she had to deliver the message anyway. ' " Mr. Wong asks you to see you in the next 10 minutes." Are you talking to me? "" Yes please, and he sounded quite urgent," Maria said and left immediately. Gabriella quickly finished what she had in hand and hurried to the office of the president. On her way, she was wondering why the president would send her in that way. She ha

-Gabriella's POV- Have never seen anything as real as this my whole life, and think this is the first time I've slept off while at work. Now I've been asked to see the president, the same way I saw it in my dream. Hmmm Oh God! How can I handle this situation? This has better be just a dream, because where should I begin? Plus my kids. How do I survive without them? I'm very sure Richard won't allow me to walk away with these girls. God would it not be better if I hadn't gotten this job in the first place? Because my kids now are at stake.Who did I step on their toes and not apologize? I'm exhausted thinking about this. Is there a need to go to his office when I already know what is going to happen at the end? Maybe I should just say a little prayer and then leave the rest in God's hands. She bent over her desk, said a long prayer, and thereafter ensured everything that belonged to her in the office was packed in a carton. She made sure she prepared her mind before

She returned and found Veronica sitting on her chair and she couldn't believe her eyes. I mean everything in this office. Why did she choose my own space? Has it gotten to the part where she doesn't respect boundaries either? No, I don't think I can take this, she thought to herself, moved in, and dropped the food she came back with from Richard's office. " What are you doing on my chair? In my own space? " Gabriella said, fuming in anger but trying hard to control it, to no avail because that was the height of the joke. " I'm sorry I thought you left from there "" You are sorry, you thought I left from there? What does that mean, please? " Gabriella asked as Veronica stood up from the chair in her own space, without uttering another word to Gabriella. " Well, you left this office for too long, so I thought you were fired and you went home from there " " Wait, you joking right? " Gabriella didn't believe her ears, after just many days of working with the company she'd

Mark was able to see Gabriella when she stood in shock looking at them. He was happy and didn't waste a second telling Veronica about it, but Veronica didn't believe him when he said something about Gabriella being jealous. " You know, I just saw Veronica now, and I think she saw me on " " This is her office, so get ready to see her more often " Veronica sounded unbothered about what Mark just said. " Well, I think she's jealous already. I can tell from the shock on her face when she saw us " " I doubt Gabriella still has feelings for you, and from what I see here, I think she's completely over you " Even though Veronica is not sure about Gabriella's love life, she believes what she and the president have is real, from what she has seen around her. " She doesn't see you anymore Mark, I think she's more into your uncle ".“ You don’t know Gabriella okay? Just stick to the plan”Mark knew exactly what he wanted and no matter how long it took him, he would wait as long as

How should I tell Mark Veronica could be his nightmare? How can I explain to him? Is she not really who she portrays? I wish I could come in to save him from this mess he's about to get himself into. Mark May has hurt me in the past, I know, but I can't wish things like Veronica for him. He deserves better even though I am not there anymore, and I hope I can get him out of this without getting involved, because if Richard finds out I'm dead. I think I saved his number on my phone after the last time he called. Maybe I should give him a call. " Hello Mark How are you, hope this is not the wrong time. " " Wow! I'm surprised Gabriella, you still have my number? " Whatever Mark thinks I don't know But I seriously need to do this, because I will be free from guilt too. " Yes Mark, was scrolling down my phone and it would be nice if I called to hear from you " Yeah, That's actually what it is. And I won't stop at anything. But if he insists, then I will kindly allow

I was having my alone time in the room thinking of Mark and his newfound love, for some reason that I don't know I kept thinking about Mark, whom I don't have any business with. If he decides to mess his life up I don't see how it's any of my business. I only did what I felt was right, but since he insists, I can only wish him good luck. When Richard came knocking on my door, at first I didn't know he was the one, thought it was either one of the girls or both. So I stood up to go get the door only to find out Richard at the door. I was surprised because I wasn't expecting him. " Hey " He looked like something was bothering him, cause he wasn't looking at Richard. I know, Well, I didn't waste my time asking questions, I just needed to respond to whatever brought him to my room this evening. " Hello " I responded and waited to say what brought him before I could go back inside. " Do you want to join me in the living room or should I come in instead? " I quickly g

It's usually not my thing. But I woke up early on that faithful Saturday morning at about 4:52. And I was feeling all cranky, and couldn't think of what to do to help me get better. I laid back on the bed still trying to figure out what to do, because I wouldn't want my kids to see me in such a mood, a few minutes later, I remembered a road walk can help. So I got dressed in sporty wear. I was able to get my hands on, it since I don't do sports. I usually don't see them as a necessity, so I hardly buy them. But the one I tried on didn't look any bad either. So I said and dashed out immediately to begin my mile run. It was a good feeling I don't know why I find it difficult to try it most times. I was almost getting to a 45-minute run when I saw Mark running on the same street as me. He was still behind me when I saw him and I pretended not to notice he was the one behind me, but What I can't explain is how he got to know I was the one running in his front. Before I

I couldn't believe what my eyes saw, Yeah I know he goes for a morning walk 3 times a week, but never knew this was his route. Is this his route or is Richard stalking me? Hope He doesn't come to me for answers. If he does, how should I explain to him that mark? And I just ran into each other on the street? Especially when Mark had told him I was his ex-girlfriend. Well, he hasn't reprimanded me about anything yet, so I will try not to jump to conclusion yet. It was indeed a day for me. And I was a little disorganized, because I knew Richard would confront me, but I managed to walk myself to the bathroom, wash off sweat, then went to the girls to check if they were out of bed. My good luck charms are already up and playing on their bed with their toys. No doubt they have missed me so much, you can easily tell from the excitement on their faces. " Good morning Mummy! " both said at the same time and left the bed immediately to hug me, "Good morning girls, it is time to fres
