Mr Adams kept staring at Vanessa since she came into his office. He couldn't help but notice how beautiful she looked. After so many years, still looked so young as if she was aging backwards."It's nice to see you again, Mrs Howells…""Miss Sanchez, please " Vanessa corrected him quickly.Mr Adams forgot about her divorce from Manuel."I'm so sorry, Miss Sanchez " Mr Adams said, the man adjusted the files in front of him, and brought out the script he had prepared for Vanessa.When Vanessa saw the title of the script, she smiled briefly and focused. She wrote that exact script and it was still ongoing. She only sent the copy of the first season to the company. She didn't expect them to like it and wanted to begin acting in the movie immediately."It's been your year, Vanessa. We never heard anything about you. I was so worried" Mr Adams said,Vanessa knew that he was sincere about missing her this time, because she saw his phone calls and ignored them. He did try to keep in touch wi
Vanessa arrived in her apartment later that evening. She was informed by Nancy that her dress for the event had been delivered, and the makeup artist had also arrived.Vanessa went into her bedroom first to freshen up. Getting into her bedroom, Vanessa noticed the dress placed on top of her bed.She went towards the bed, picked the dress up and examined it. A beautiful purple and black colored dress. Vanessa moved towards the mirror and confirmed the size of the dress on her body.It was just perfect for the occasion and for her looks. She was glad it came out as she pictured.Much later……The make-up artist finished with Vanessa and they proceeded to style her hair. Vanessa chose a simple sleek ponytail hairstyle. She didn't want to make her hairstyle complicated so it would match her dress.The hair was dressed with beautiful diamond stones, matching the one on her necklace and outfit. Vanessa stood facing the huge antique mirror, staring at how beautiful she looked inside the dres
There was a ruckus in the place, Marina couldn't escape so she tried to deny it. "I am being framed, I'm sure this was done by someone else. This is unacceptable, Security!" Marina yelled. "Someone, get these people out of here!" She almost went crazy, trying to discard them.Vanessa made sure that no security guard responded to Marina as she had already paid them not to get involved. The spotlights we're faced towards Marina."Answer their questions, Marina. Did you kill Mara or not!" A loud voice spoke from amidst the crowd. The audience diverted their attention to Vanessa as she stood up. Vanessa's voice could be recognized, Marina glared at her sternly."Vanessa, Sanchez. What are you doing here?" She asked.Marina had been busy, she didn't notice Vanessa's presence in the event. She was only focused on making the headlines on her day. "I am also involved in this, I am in the video as you all can see. I witnessed you do it. Why do I have to keep shut, when I am being accused of
Inside his car, Manuel watched Vanessa leave the hotel alongside her bodyguard, Jeremy.Adrian noticed how his fist hardened in a tight clench, Manuel was obviously jealous when he saw Jeremy with Vanessa.He didn't know who Jeremy was so he became jealous. If indeed Jeremy was Vanessa's boyfriend, then he would surely make him regret it!He watched them leave in a car, an SUV not too different from his. Manuel ordered for them to be followed.They left the place together, Adrian made sure to trail them slowly without being discovered. They eventually arrived in front of Vanessa's mansion where she was driven into in her car.Manuel ordered Adrian to park and they observed the situation for a moment. He noticed that the man wasn't coming out which automatically made him believe that Jeremy was living with Vanessa.Or Jeremy Vanessa must've been the one living with Jeremy. He was so angry about it, he felt like barging inside to meet them. Manuel asked Adrian to take him away from the
"Miss Sanchez, we've received so many requests to sponsor your upcoming movie. And only one offer caught my eyes. The client is willing to invest a hundred million dollars just for your movie" Mr Adams announced to her.Hearing the amount, Vanessa was astounded. But she didn't get excited immediately, she wanted to know who the sponsor was."Who is this mysterious sponsor?" She asked Mr Adams."Well, he made the offer through his company's email. A perfume company in Cairo. I think he is from Egypt" he explained to her.Vanessa was a bit suspicious about it but when Mr Adams guaranteed her that it would be safe to accept his sponsorship.It was around 7 p. In the evening, Vanessa had just closed from work and she was headed to her car.She struggled to open the door, because she was on a phone call at the same time. After she finally did, Vanessa drove off the premises.She reached her mansion about an hour later. The place was unusually quiet, she went inside quickly.."Happy birthd
Vanessa cleaned up the blood on his face, she wondered how much force Jeremy used in hitting him. "Why didn't you defend yourself, Manuel? I know you so well, three men are not enough for you to defeat" she stated, matter-of-factly. Vanessa pulled the strands of his hair backwards so she could clean his face properly.Manuel was silent for a moment when he realized that Vanessa saw through his pretense. He had defended her from being violated countless times, she knew his strength, it was obvious that he had pretended, just to get her attention.Now he earned it, but to what gain, if she already knew the truth?"Vanessa, I've missed you." He confessed."Please don't start, Manuel. I didn't bring you into my house for this." He declared, pressing the towel on his injured lips and he groaned. She knew that it would hurt him, so she did it on purpose."I need to see my son. You cannot keep him from me forever!""He isn't your son, Manuel. Remember? You accused me of cheating and divorce
"Nolan, what do you mean? You know you have no dad! Open this door right now!" She yelled, "You're lying, I have a daddy. I saw him yesterday, we look alike. You have his pictures hidden inside your drawer" Nolan retorted.Vanessa was tired of begging and she didn't want to order for the door to be brought down. She knew how stubborn Nolan could be and she didn't want to push the situation any further. Vanessa decided to call Cia to come over since she was a very good friend with Nolan.Maybe, Cia would be able to convince Nolan to come out.She waited for about twenty minutes for Cia to rush to her mansion. "Vanessa, what did you say is the problem? Where is Nolan?" Cia asked immediately when she arrived. She flung her handbag aside and rushed upstairs to see the little boy.Vanessa, Cia and Nancy were all standing outside Nolan's door, pleading with him to come out. "No, Aunty. I want my daddy!" He cried.At first, Vanessa didn't tell Cia what the issue was because she knew how Cia
The whole moment ended with everyone being satisfied, Vanessa let go of her grudge against Manuel and let him reunite with his son."I'll be leaving now, son," Manuel said to Nolan, almost in a whisper. He wished he didn't have to say this to him, they've spent only a few hours together and he already got so attached to him.Nolan on the other hand didn't think that his father would leave after he made a request to his mother to let Manuel stay.Nolan turned to Manuel, removing his eyes from the game. He was so focused on it until he heard Manuel's announcement. He was so disappointed."Is mummy chasing you? Did she ask you to leave?" Nolan inquired curiously."No, not at all. Daddy has to go to work, son. It's getting late already" Manuel explained calmly to Nolan."Hmm, work? Can I come?" He asked."No, I can't let you come." Manuel instantly rebuked him. It wasn't a bad idea to take Nolan to the company, matter of fact, Manuel couldn't wait to explore his game rooms and more techno
