59.

“Where is Roland?” Sasha asked after Annabel returned to Olivia's room.

“He should be gone by now.” She sighed and sat down on Olivia's bed. The little girl played, got tired and fell asleep.

“What were you two talking about?” Sasha asked.

“Isn't it crazy?” Annabel chuckled sadly. “He told me he loved me,” She said.

Sasha's eyes widened. “Wow! What did you say?”

“I told him I was engaged.”

The excitement on Sasha's face dimmed. “You said what? Why? For what?” She couldn't believe Annabel. “Why would you lie to him that you're engaged?”

“To keep him as far away from me as possible, Sasha. He needs to let me be!” Annabel answered.

Sasha couldn't believe it. “And what if he finds out you lied?”

“He should live with it.” Annabel rolled her eyes.

Sasha shook her head. “That's not cool at all. If you keep behaving like this, I don't think it makes you any different from him,” Sasha said and Annabel swiftly turned to look at her, surprised. “I'm your friend, Annabel and I'll always tell

    60.Annabel entered the office the next day but was shocked to see that Roland was not in the office. She wondered what happened because he was always the first to come to work before her.She sighed and sat down, thinking he must have gone to attend a meeting of some sort. She went through his schedule for the day but there was nothing like that.“He can come to work whenever he likes, I don't care,” She scoffed and went to do her work for the day.2 hours later, Roland wasn't there yet. She didn't know why but she became worried about him. This was very unusual of him. When she waited for another hour and didn't see him, she stood up and went to the secretary. “Have you seen Mr. Roland today?” She asked, forgetting to greet.Sandra looked up at her, a smile forming on her lips. This was the first time she got to look at Annabel upclose. The girl was indeed beautiful like the other employees said.Annabel furrowed her brows, wondering why Sandra was smiling at her. She cleared her

    61.The day seemed to be quite slow, and Annabel prayed it would end soon. She didn't like how she felt after Roland told her that. She had no idea what he meant either and it seemed as if everywhere suddenly became hotter than normal.She couldn't concentrate on the files she was working on and would look at Roland from time to time to see if he was affected by the hotness as well. Roland's eyes were fixed on the laptop he was working on, and occasionally the employees would come for him to review their work and also sign some papers.Annabel admired how hard working he was and sighed, ruffling her hair. She looked at the spot where his water dispenser was and remembered the day he had taken her to his private suite. She suddenly started craving for that ice cream but had to control herself.She turned to look at Roland again and this time around, he had his hand on his forehead, his face scrunched up in pain. Annabel didn't want to ask so he wouldn't tease her again.She glanced his

    62.“Is he okay?” Annabel asked after the doctor checked on him.When Roland fell asleep, she slowly stood up and ran to Ashton, informing him about Roland's condition. Ashton phoned Doctor Bella, Ashton's private doctor and she came immediately. They moved him to his bedroom before she attended to him.Doctor Bella looked at Annabel with a smile on her face. “Yes, he's fine. He's just over stressed and didn't rest as he should,” Annabel facepalmed. “Just make sure he takes his medication and let him go off work for a week. He'll be fine after that,” She suggested and they nodded. “I'll be on my way now.” She smiled at them and left.Annabel sighed as she looked down at Roland. She hadn't seen him looking so pale and weak before. She sat beside him on the bed and placed her hand on his forehead. The heat was reducing and she sighed in relief.Ashton smiled as he watched her. If she cared about Roland like this, then was she really engaged?He massaged his temple as he thought of tha

    63.After work that day, Roland insisted Annabel stayed with him.“I do have things to take care of, you know right?” She asked.Roland sighed. Spending time with her today has been one of the best things that's ever happened to him. And he didn't want to lose that. “I know but…” He trailed off and sighed. He should just be appreciative of the time he had spent with her today. And he was going to cherish this day.“I'll go call Ashton to come take you home. The doctor asked that you stay off work for a week so you can rest well. Please, do not disobey her.” She warned.“But how do you expect me to stay at home all day doing nothing?” He folded his hands.“Doctor's orders and you have no choice but to accept it.” She glared at him and walked out of the place.When she got to Ashton's office, she met him working on some files.“Aren't you going home? Work hours are over.” She smiled at him.“Yeah, but I need to get these files sorted out before tomorrow morning. I think I'm going to w

    64.“Where are you?” Annabel asked, standing up to pick her bag quickly.“At the airport, duh. Where else would I be?” He chuckled and her face lit up with smiles.“Stay right where you are. I'm coming to pick you up.” She ended the call.“Where are you going?” Roland asked when she attempted to leave.“A friend of mine just returned to this country. I need to see him!” She exclaimed.“Him?” Roland asked.“Yes. Goodnight, sir.” She smiled and skipped out of the house, leaving Roland wondering who that person is. Why did she smile so brightly on hearing that he had returned?“Who could this “him” of a guy be?“ He massaged his temple as he thought hard.With a sigh, he laid back down on the table, flashing back to the kiss he had with her a few minutes ago. A smile found its way to his lips but the smile faded the moment he realized that she just went to meet a guy.He quickly sat up. “Should I follow her? No, that'd be too weird,” He massaged his temple. “Should I stalk her then?” He s

    65.Annabel got to work the next day feeling excited than usual. It was a Friday and she wondered if it was because Carson was around or because she'd be going off work early that day to spend some time with him. He had promised to take her, Olivia and Sasha out that night, though Sasha declined since she'd be working late, she asked Annabel to bring back goodies for her.She entered the elevator and just as the door was about to close, Lucinda entered as well. Annabel sighed, wondering what the heck was wrong with this model.“Go on, aren't you going to press the floor you're headed? I'm pretty sure we're heading the same direction.” Lucinda smiled at her.Annabel rolled her eyes and pressed the button that'd take her to the last floor. “So how has life been treating you?” Lucinda asked.Annabel didn't answer her. The least thing she wanted today was drama and she wasn't in the mood for Lucinda's trouble either.“Hey, I'm talking to you.” “Last time I checked Lucinda, we aren't fri

    66.The day went by faster than usual and before Annabel knew it, work hours were over. With a smile, she switched off her laptop, arranged her desk and set to leave when she remembered that Roland was still in the suite.She facepalmed and opened the door. She found him asleep on the couch.“How is he even comfortable like this?” She asked no one in particular and stood, looking at him. She tapped him. “Hey, get up. Work hours are over,”He didn't budge. She sighed and ran her hands through her hair. What exactly was wrong with him? He was asked to stay off work but the disobedient dude still came to work today. She wondered what he was trying to prove. “Roland,” She called but he didn't answer. She bent to his level and placed her hand on his forehead. He wasn't hot or cold. She sighed in relief, at least nothing serious was wrong with him.She stared at his sleeping figure, wanting to look away but it just wasn't working for her. He was just too cute to look away from.

    67.“Do you know him?” Annabel asked but he didn't answer her.She couldn't understand his sudden change of mood when she mentioned Roland. She tapped him and he gasped, looking at her.“Are you okay?” She asked and he nodded. “By any chance, do you know Roland D. Ville?” She asked.“Of course I do. Who doesn't know Roland D. Ville, the business tycoon?” He said that last part through gritted teeth.“I mean personally.” She replied.He smiled at her. “Let's forget about that. I just remembered something and that's why my mood changed.” He lied, knowing that she had noticed his mood.Annabel nodded innocently and continued eating. They talked about other stuff and laughed, forgetting about Roland in an instant. When they were done, he bought some things for them to take home and also the things he had promised Sasha, ignoring Annabel scoldings because he had bought too much.He dropped them at home and pecked Olivia's forehead while his guards took what he bought for them inside.“Than

    158. AT SCHOOL… Olivia was on a seat, trying to get a class work they had given to them done. Sebastian hadn't been to school for a while, and she was darn worried about him. She didn't know his place and had even asked Mrs. Genevieve about him several times, but she would tell him Sebastian would come soon. “Are you still pouting because of that boy?” Winter scoffed. “His name is not “that boy” Winter. His name is Sebastian and yes, I'm pouting because of him because I'm angry that he hasn't resumed school for days now.“ She folded her hands with a huff. “You care about me that much?” She gasped when she heard the voice she had been wanting to hear for a few days now. She turned and was shocked to see him. “Sebastian,” She called, and he smiled at her. “Where have you been?” She rushed to meet him. “Come with me,” He held her hand and led her outside to the car. When they got there, he smiled at her and Olivia wondered why he had brought there. “Olivia,” He called, and she loo

Ville, you're four months pregnant!” Doctor Preston told Annabel, and she shrieked in surprise.. “Are you for real?” She asked because it looked like a dream to her. She was pregnant for her darling husband; pregnant with his second child.Doctor Preston nodded and she beamed. He handed over the test results to her, and she took them with excitement laced in every of her movements.

It's been months, but she still recognized the lady.Jacinthe smiled and waited for Annabel to get to where she was.“Hi,” She waved at Annabel with a friendly smile on her face.“Hey,” Annabel smiled back. “Jacinthe.” She called.“Wow, I'm glad you still remember me.” She tucked a strand of hair behind her ears.“

    156.Annabel's eyes widened as Nadia fell to the floor in pain.Roland sighed, happy that the policemen were not dull doing their jobs. They rushed to where Nadia dropped the gun and picked it.Nadia looked at her bleeding leg, where she got shot, and screamed in tears. “All I wanted was for someone to love me! Is that too much to ask for? It isn't fair that people don't get what they want!”Annabel sighed in relief. For a moment there, she thought she was going to die on her wedding day. Roland held her hand as they walked to where Nadia sat on the floor in pain.She looked at Roland and covered her face in shame. “I'm sorry, I apologize for trying to hurt you.”Roland just looked at her. “I'll see you in court.” He said, and left with Annabel.She glanced her parents' way, and they just stared at her with tears in their eyes. There was nothing they could do anymore. She has to face the law. She was taken away by the police, and Roland turned to the people.“Let's not allow what happ

    155.THE WEDDING DAY…“Gosh, Annabel, I can't believe this is actually happening!” Sasha screamed in delight as she watched Annabel get into her wedding gown. The feeling was out of this world. She was so excited and she wasn't even the bride.Annabel couldn't believe it was happening either. Her dream was finally coming true. She was getting married to the man of her dreams; the father of her child and the person who proved to be more than a friend and boss to her. She loved him so much and just the thought that she was going to spend the rest of her life with him sent tingles down her belly.Tears rolled down her cheeks as she turned to look at Sasha, who was bubbling with excitement. Sasha rushed to her and hugged her tight.“Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh!” Sasha exclaimed.Annabel chuckled. “You seem more excited than I am.” “You do not know the half of it. After everything you passed through, you deserve a happy ending my love. You deserve the joy that comes with this day and I'm really

    154.Annabel tears rolled down in relief the minute Roland stormed through that door. She removed her veil and was about to run to him but Carson held her hand.“You are going nowhere, Annabel!” He snapped.“Let go of her right now, Carson. You do not want to see the other side of me.” Roland was vexed at how he held Annabel.Carson smiled. “I can't let go of her, Roland,” He pulled Annabel to himself and took a gun, startling everyone in the church.Roland was about to rush to them.“Don't you dare take another step else I'll shoot!” Annabel screamed.“Carson, don't try anything stupid, you'll regret it.” Roland lowered his voice, scared that Carson might shoot Annabel.Carson wasn't ready to let her go. This was his opportunity to finally get what he wanted right now that Roland was here.“I hate you, do you know that? Why do you keep ruining my plans and acting like a hero all the time?” He snarled. “I've tried my best to be ahead of you in all ramifications. I tried to surpass you

    153.“What the heck did you just spit out of that ass you call a mouth?” Roland balled his fists. Carson had definitely grown wings to have the courage to talk to him like that. How dare the scumbag say he wanted to get married to Annabel? His Annabel? For what?Carson was happy that he had been able to get a reaction out of Roland. He knew the dude didn't like joking with anything that involves Annabel. “You heard me well. I would have invited you to our wedding but I'm worried that you'd turn everything upside down, so you're not going to be invited. But, I'll be lenient and give you a video of the whole wedding procession.” He laughed.Roland tightened his fists. “Shut up.” “Why should I?” Carson chuckled. “I'm just sharing my happiness with you and you're silencing me. I'm just happy that I'd be getting married to the woman of my dreams tomorrow—”“Shut up, Carson!” Roland snapped. He couldn't take it anymore. He wished he was with Carson now to reset his brain with a punch or sla

    152.“I can't marry you now, let me out of here!” Annabel snapped at him but he chuckled and sped up.She couldn't believe Carson was behaving this way. Olivia was scared and held Annabel.“Mummy!” She called, her voice shaking.Annabel held her close to herself and quickly took her phone. She sent a text message to the number Sasha used to text her but it didn't deliver. With a frustrated sigh, she texted Roland, asking him for help. “If you think texting them the location of where I'm taking you will make them find you then you're mistaken. I suspected something like this might happen, so I already had my plans implemented and waiting for execution. Where I told you isn't actually where I'm taking you now, Annabel. Where I'm taking you is where our wedding will take place.”“Over my dead body will I agree to marry a monster like you. I saw you as a helper but you betrayed me. You have no conscience!”Carson laughed. “Hear who's talking about conscience? Where was your conscience whe

    151.Roland sprung up from his seat and rushed to meet Sasha.“You said what?” He asked to be sure he heard her well the first time.Sasha tried to catch her breath. When her breathing was stable enough, she looked up at Roland. “Annabel is leaving the city with Carson and I have no idea when she'd be coming back.”Roland blinked. “What! Why?” He asked.“She said she wanted to go somewhere far away, rest for awhile and heal. She wants to forget about you and everything you two had.”“No!” Roland shook his head. “I can't let that happen, Sasha. Where is she now?” He asked, picking up his car keys immediately.“She should be at Carson's now. You have to stop her from leaving, Roland. I don't trust Carson one bit.” Sasha was scared for Annabel's safety.“Neither do I,” Roland said and rushed out.Sasha sat in the office with her palms on her forehead. She was already getting a headache from all these issues on ground.“Where is Roland?” Ashton asked the moment he walked in.Sasha sighed.

    150.TWO DAYS LATER…“Nadia, how could you do something like that?” Mrs. Durand asked after the news about what Nadia did, got to her ears.It's been two days, Annabel didn't want to see Roland or anyone. Roland had been devastated over everything that happened and had refused to eat or drink. He was getting worse daily and no matter how much evidence they gathered, they'd always lose it.Nadia on the other hand was bent on making things worse for them. Roland's parents tried to talk to her but she refused to hear them out. She was indeed showing them the other side of her and it made them relieved that they didn't give her to their son in the First place.Nadia blew a bubble from the gum she was chewing and glanced at her mother. “I've done a lot of things, mum. Which one are you talking about?” She asked.Mrs. Durand couldn't believe how her daughter changed suddenly. Nadia wasn't always like this.“You framed Roland and you know exactly what I'm talking about. Meet Annabel and expla
