Belle scoffed angrily. She took the formula back and changed a few sequences on it. Then she handed it back. "Then try this." He frowned. Wondering if he is just wasting his time with this woman. He could be dancing his night away with all the pretty women. If he's lucky he be able to bed a few of them tonight. He shuffled the paper in front of him. He wonders if this spoiled rich girl would actually know something he doesn't. Hopefully it's not something he have tried numerous times before. He tried working on the formula by changing it for years, but it didn't work. This time he looked at the formula and noticed it had completely changed. He looked at it and thought it looked pretty decent. Yet this woman did it in just a few tweet. His eyes seemed to glitter with hope, and he took out his laptop."What is it?" "I wanted to try it out." Bruce was quickly turning on his laptop.Belle smiled as she saw that he was thrilled about this. It wasn't her grandfather nor was it hers. It wa
Belle sighed as she was finally able to get him off of her shoulder. This was the only thing she could think of. If she made it seem like she was helping him then he would feel in debt to her. Hopefully this will slowly make him back off his revenge. She was happy that they both got what they wanted. He got what he wanted. His own formula. She got what she wanted, keeping him away from her. She did all of that without giving him her grandfather's secret formula. Now, Bruce will just leave them alone. As she turned the corner, she felt someone pulling on her bag. "Ahh!" screamed Belle."Sorry. I didn't mean to scare you. I called your name a few times," said Bruce."What? You did?"Bruce nodded. "Oh. What is it that you need?""I wanted to walk you home. It's late now. And it's dangerous to walk alone at night.""Oh. It's fine. I can make it to my dorm. You should head back too."Bruce, not willingly to take no for an answer, he stepped in front of her. "Please, let me at least walk y
BACK TO THE PRESENTIt's been nearly a week since she seen Bruce. She was glad he was gone because she didn't want to see him. For the days that he was gone she kept herself busy. She was cooking, cleaning, or washing the dishes. There were some books that piqued her interest. She read them and kept herself busy. When there was no more books for her to read, she would turn on the tv. She was watching television with over five thousand channels. She was surprised that he allowed her to access such wide range of shows. But she didn't care as long as there was something to keep her entertained. Although she didn't have any access to computer, phone, or tablets to the internet she didn't mind. In time Bruce will let down his guard, and she will get out of there. When she awoke, she felt someone by her feet. She gasped as she saw who was sitting next to him. "Are you awake?" asked Bruce. Startled Belle woke up and scooted away from him. "What are you doing?""Staring at my beautiful wi
BACK TO THE PAST (REFER BACK TO CHAPTER 21) That morning when Bruce returned back to the Wang's mansion, he happened to meet his grandmother."Well?" She sneered at him. "How did it go?"Bruce put down his backpack and sat down on the sofa. He explained to her what happened.Bruce's grandmother threw her glass of champagne towards the wall, and it shattered into pieces.Bruce frowned at her. "You need to get that formula!""I know," said Bruce, getting up from the sofa."Then why didn't you sleep with her?""Trust me, sleeping with her will be no problem.""Then why didn't you? It's early morning, I thought you be done by now.""I got interrupted.""That's not an excuse."He turned to look at her. She sneered at him. "Don't be tricked by her beautiful looks."Bruce looked at her with seriousness in his eyes."Bruce," said Bruce's grandmother blowing out more smoke. "What?" questioned Bruce. "You need to get that secret formula.""I'm trying.""Are you?"Bruce frowned again at her
"What?""Please."Not wanting to cause a scene she sat back down. Soon all the students from the room left the room. He looked at her with his cold gaze. How she was used to that look of his. In the past he never had a different expression but that stone silence of his. While other women he would laugh and smile. How she used to crave that from him, but now she's too broken to even care."Have you been avoiding me because of what your friend said about me?""What?""About my past.""What about it?""You're saying you don't care.""Who you're with or have sex with is none of my business." "Really?""Really.""Oh." Bruce fidget with his pencil. "Then what is it?""What's what?""Why are you keeping a distance from me.""I'm not. I just don't want people to get the wrong idea if they see us together.""Like?" "Like we're dating."Bruce leaned into her. "So?""I mean it wouldn't be good.""Why is that?" Bruce tilted at her. "Well, you're the notorious playboy. And I'm the miss goodie
Bruce smiled at her. Then Bruce did something she didn't expect. He kissed her. "Mmmph!" Belle was trying to push him off of her, but he wouldn't budge. Bruce was kissing her with anger. She turned her head from side to side. But he followed her every movement. He kissed her till they both ran out of breath."Some talking we did too," he panted against her lips. Belle gasped. "Umm. Ehh. Let go of me.""No. Because you're not understanding me.""Understand what?""I don't want you to be like them?""Huh?""Blaming me for what happened.""What?" gasped Belle. "I said no such thing." "Sure, you just made it sound like I'm the bad boy of the campus who pays his way through school by sleeping with woman.""Hey! You-You!" Belle puffed up her cheeks.Bruce couldn't help but chuckle at her. "Tsk. Leave me alone." "Not until you say the magic words.""Okay. Okay. I'm sorry. It was them who wanted you.""Yes. And?" "You were innocent. They were horny, wanted sex, and you gave it to them.
"Where are you?" came a text.Belle looked at her phone. It was him. He was texting her. "In my dorm," she replied back. "You were supposed to meet me.""I never agreed to that.""You said "fine" when we last talk.""That was saying fine to you communicating with me. Not about meeting up with you.""Should I come upstairs?""What?" gasped Belle. She looked outside her window and didn't see anyone. "You liar. I thought you were downstairs," she texted back. "I could be." She frowned. What does this man want."Want me to come get you?" came back the text."No," she texted back. Belle have to be careful. She doesn't want anyone to see them together. If she's seen, then people would think they're dating. She doesn't want that. She would have to find a way for them to meet without anyone seeing them. "But I want to meet you. I want you to meet me," he texted again. Belle was starting to panic. If he comes then people will start talking, then her grandfather will know. Her grandfather
Belle remembered all the equations and formulas he used. Not one that she had forgotten. One morning, she was going into his office to give him coffee, but he wasn’t there. His computer screen was left open, so she took a peek at it. There she saw everything that she needed to know about his success. Having a photographic memory came in handy as she was able to memorize it all. It was easy. The methods was similar to his grandfather. Complex with exact measurement, and if one understands it, their mind will open to the endless possibilities. With both of them formulas side by side, success came easy. That’s how he did it in the previous life.Bruce waited as she was contemplating. He wanted to stay focused, but he couldn’t help but being distracted. His mind was drifting on to the beautiful hot lady in front of him. The tightness of her clothes was just making him think all sorts of dirty thoughts. He stroked his chin as he liked her hanging bosoms. Damn, if that bra comes off, I’m su
“OH! Adam!” she gasped. “It’s beautiful!”Bruce was heaving heavily on the inside. She didn’t give him that same expression when he showed her his gift. But yet she gladly express her joy with another man. How cruel she is to him.Adam giddily said, “I’m glad you like it.”“Oh,” gaped Belle. “Thank you, Adam.”Adam took the jewel and placed it around Belle’s neck.Bruce was near erupting at the sight of another man touching her. The crowd was “oh” and “ah”. He was boiling with anger. These two lovely couples is making him want to murder someone.The crowd was clapping loudly as Adam finished clasping the necklace on Belle.Slow deep breaths Bruce took to ease his temper. I will get her on her own. Then I will show her my expression. The betrayal. The party went on and it got warm really quickly. Belle stepped aside and went out to the patio. She breathed in the fresh air that she missed in her last lifetime. Her eyes gazed at the stars that so faintly shines in the sky. She was so
PRESENTBruce took out a small gold necklace from his stash of collection. It had a pendant of a red ruby hooked on it. It symbolized his love for her. He clutched it tightly. He looked at Belle, who was sleeping next to him. He placed it around her neck. “There, right where it belonged.”Belle looked beautiful in that necklace he bought her many years ago.PASTBruce looked at the necklace from behind the glass case. It was a jewelry like none others. With a swift decision he purchased the priceless gem. With all of his life saving, he didn’t regret one moment of it. For he believed it was a gift worth giving. A beautiful jewelry for the world’s most beautiful woman. And tonight, he was going to give it to her. It’s her eighteen birthday.DING!Belle looked at her cell phone. It was a text message from Bruce. She opened it and it said, “Come meet me, Bruce.” She wonders what it was all about for he is texting her awfully early in the morning.“Who is it?” asked Lucy, trying to peek a
A few days went by, and Belle went to see Bruce.Bruce looked like he hadn’t slept for days.“What’s going on?” she asked.“What?” he asked her nearly awake. He was so exhausted and so frustrated. He has been stuck at his analysis for the past two days. He haven’t budge at all. The small numbers she gave him got him one fourth of the way. Since he’s been bombarded, he’s been going backward instead of forward.She leaned over him, her breasts slightly brushing his shoulders.Bruce could feel her softness but decided to ignore it. He was too fluster to even think about sex right now.She snickered on the inside. I kind of figure you be stuck by now. I had to wait a few days to let you struggle. So, this way you know how valuable I am to completing your dreams. Revenge. Whose getting who now? Bruce sighs as he had to let her help. He was in need of assistance. He was falling behind schedule. “Hmm,” hummed Belle.Bruce snorted. Just as he thought. She could not figure it out like he
