“Look who we have right here! it's the princess who has finally come to a dead” One of the men said laughing sarcastically while moving toward her at a slow pace while Giselle continuously moved backward. “How do you think, you could evade us with your tiny figure? how dare you make us chase after you for so long?” Another man from the group said as he yanked forward in his long legs which sent shudders of shivers down Giselle's mind. Her legs were shuddering as she moved back to avoid being dashed over by the men after her. With shaky lips, she questioned and said.“Who are you people? what do you want from. e? I haven't done anything to any of you, then why are you going after me? I don't even know who are you. Please don't hurt me, please”. After hearing the question she had posed at them. They all burst out laughing hard. “You haven't done anything to us initially but after now, you did something very bad and you're going to pay for every bit of it. You wretched homewrecker”
Five years later...... In the city's famous fashion gallery located in the center of Bay City, a fashion exhibition was being held. Everything was moving into top gear backstage. As the assistant to the leading figure of the fashion show, Sandra was checking details on the clothes for the models. The famous fashion company was making its grand entry into the Bay City fashion market and this was their launch coming to the city. The company came into the limelight about three years ago, and the demand for their fashion products has been so high that it would send several shivers down the spines of competitors, and what more, it's finally has a branch in Bay City. After a few minutes of checking n the designers, the assistant seemed to have a look of confusion on her face, then she put a call across to someone. “Miss Burnett, I sent you a couple of designs now. Do you think this will fit the models assigned?” She said while holding the blueprint in her hands worriedly. Th
“Do you think that you can do anything to me even if you were given a chance? You're nothing but a useless piece of trash working as a cleaner in a dirty place like this. I feel bad having to see your face right in front of me”. Danica made a disgusting looking after listening to what the other woman had said about her earlier on. She felt irritated that a woman like this one would have the nerve to stand up against her despite knowing who she was in the city. this servant must be new in the city. if people see me chatting with her then, they might think I'm crazy but what can I do after she insulted me? But I think she's of good use if I decide to though. After thinking about this for a while, she decided to irritate Bethany and force a reaction out of her; she wanted to gain attention once again. However, Bethany replied with a smile after seeing through her dirty intentions. “Thank you so much for all that tour got to say about a cleaner like myself, but I'll still suggest
“Sure, President Meyer. This way ”.Gael led the way to the car and as soon as they settled in and the driver was busy waiting for instructions on where to go. Gael started with the reports on his schedule.“You still have a dinner meeting at the Ocean palace with the investors. That's your last meeting for the night”. He said looking up expectantly as he awaited further instructions.The meeting was an important one and he needs to attend it first.Just as Gael was waiting for his response, he suddenly heard the man speak directly to the driver while focusing his gaze on his lap; which was settled upon his laps as he consciously glanced at the screen.“Go to the Spiral view cafe”. he spoke with an eerie and cold voice that the driver immediately switch on the ignition at the mention of this.“But, President Meyer, the dinner meeting is starting in an hour. we don't have enough time to grab some refreshments. As it is, you don't like pastries, why would you want to go to the cafe now
The man was lost in thought glaring at the woman's face–She looks way too beautiful more than all the women that he has been around since the beginning. She had very fair skin with long wavy hair that hung on her should; t was very dark and long. Her eyes were delicate and bright, it shines brightly like the morning sun and anyone would fall in love with her eyes at first glance.But beneath the glaring eyes were the throb of the dark abyss that questions the sincerity of the person– looking deep into those eyes would give a person the urge to consciously stare into those eyes and at the end find out the truth lagging in them.Zayn was shocked to meet a person whose eyes tell so much story about the kind of person she is and due to that, he was lost in a daze; forgetting to look away from her gaze.“Mister, I'm sorry for bumping into you. I'll get you a new package of pastries now” Her voice cut through his thought and he quickly looked away feeling a little embarrassed to have been c
Bethany zoomed out of the pastry shops with full force after dumping Sandra and the chauffeur.She kept driving downtown, as it got darker and there were no street lights along the roads in the suburbs area. She soon egan driving slowly for safety.Out of the blues, her car suddenly collided with a loud thus and she immediately came to a screeching halt with her heart wheezing heavily against her chest.It was a good thing that the road was more remote, workout any car passing by.Bethany got out of the car to have a look, after heaving a heavy sigh and giving herself a pet talk.I won't die now!However, the barrier on the road was a thing, but a man!!.It was so dark that she couldn't see the face of the man, but it was evident that the man was lying in a pool of blood unconsciously.Upon seeing the state of the man in front of her, she became frightened and her face turned deadly pale almost immediately.She smashed into a helpless man!!It was the first time, she had encountered s
After getting the breakfast from the cafeteria, Bethany decided to give Sandra a call and ask to inquire about the situation at the house.“Hello Miss Bethany, are you alright? Has everything settled down over there? Is the man alright?”.Sandra was very worried about Bethany that she didn't sleep all night and ended up spending the night at the house while waiting for her.She's been thinking about the whole incident the entire night, and she couldn't resist the urge to call Bethany when she got the chance.Bethany decided to share her burden with Sandra. Bethany felt a sense of relief and explained the entire situation to her.On the other hand, Sandra couldn't come up with a conclusion either, so she decided to play the blame games.“I had told you not to go anywhere so late at night, but you wouldn't listen to me. Now, see what you've done. How are we supposed to get rid of him and move ahead? You shouldn't have even gone to a remote like that one in the first place”.Sandra said
At last, only Zayn was left in the conference room.“Gael”.“Yes, you called for me, President Meyer?”Gael the assistant of Zayn rushed into the room as soon as he heard his name; the truth is, he's been waiting eagerly in front of the door waiting for his call.He looked extremely happy while coming into the room.“Look into this matter, and find out who is behind everything. I want to know who is behind the scene”.“Yes, I understand, President Meyer”.Gael nodded excitedly and was about to exit the room first when Zayn call after him again. At this moment, Zayn raised his head to look at him, then he gave him an order.“Go to the city center, and give the woman 500 dollars first”.With the image of Bethany at dawn springing up in his mind, his eyes slowly darkened.Nevertheless, he never owed others, so he wouldn't do so this time as well.“Sir, I wanted to say something before I leave. Shall I say it?”.Zayn raised his eyes, “Go ahead and say it”.“I'm so happy that you're safe al
…..That night at Bethany’s mansion.Bethany was scrolling through a file on her laptop when her phone rang.It was a call from Barbara.“Darling, I have gone to pay my rest at the temple along with Vella. We will be back home very soon, don't worry everything is fine and Vella is having a lot of fun” Barbara excitedly explains everything in one goal.Bethany smiled, hearing her words.“Donnie, I hope you had fun visiting the places you wanted. And Vella wanted to see the greenery, hope she enjoyed it” Bethany stopped scrolling and asked with a smile on her face. “Yes, she did but she wanted Jenna to accompany her to see the green water fountain. So, she refuses to visit it without her” Barbara ruffled Vella’s hair and said. She looked at the little girl’s face and smiled.Vella beamed back at her. “Really? I should have sent Jenna along with her but Jenna didn't want to go back yet, she was worried about something but it's been taken care of. When you're back, I'll go along with t
“Don't be faster than your shadows. Zayn is not the type to get distracted by things like that. Let's lay low and strike when least expected” Joanna suggested. She knew his Zayn was like and didn't want things to get messed up. Bent on the other held his phone in his hands while his chest rose and fell at the mention of Bethany. Bethany had managed to capture Zayn’s heart and was a great asset to him, how could she go missing? “Talking of Bethany.That cocky woman humiliated me so much before, why are we even talking about her?” Sapphira was boiling with rage once she saw Bethany’s name. “You are not the only one.Bethany was like a huge thorn in my flesh, she came after me like a rival.I have a very bad feeling about that woman” Daphne cringed her face, thinking of the times Bethany made her life difficult. “Who is this Bethany and why was she after you all?” Dimitri seemed to be the only one who didn't have any encounter with Bethany. “That miserable girl was a menace. Who knew
Hearing his words, Mr.Meyer turned to look at him with seriousness.The expression appeared as though something had been awakened in his mind.“Do you really think so? If that's the case then we don't deserve to call ourselves her family, how could we fail to find her?” He viciously blames himself.“Why are you blaming yourself, old master Meyer? It's not even confirmed that the young mistress is alive yet. On top of that, the situation was too complicated and no one knew the truth.” Mr.Meyer Sr looked ghastly at the dark view of the sea and muttered.“If there's a chance that my dear Giselle is out there somewhere, I'll turn the whole world down to bring her back no matter what”His firm tone and cold expressions were a testament to his serious he was.“What are you planning to do, Master Meyer? What's on your mind?” The Butler asked, seeing his expression.“It's her death anniversary very soon. Wouldn't it be nice if we found her before then? That way we will get to celebrate her bi
Back in the hospital. The smile on Jessica’s face faded as soon as Zayn was gone.After he left, the smile on Jessica's face disappeared and she put on a cold face. The next moment, she pulled open the bedside drawer, took out a document, and opened it. She was a little sad. But soon she thought of something else and slowly touched on these words, revealing a frightening smile. Just then, she heard a soft knock on the door before Jeff walked into the room with his stethoscope in his hands. He carefully examined her and said.“Ms.Ferguson, there is nothing to worry about.If you look after yourself well, you'll be fine” “Dr.Emerson, why isn't Ms.Quest visiting you anymore? Did you two have a lover’s quarrel?” Jessica asked seriously with a pretentious smile. Jeff was caught off-guard. However, the mention of Bethany’s name caused his eyes to turn red with hate. Jessica was quick-witted, she saw his expressions but didn't say a word. “.Ms.Ferguson, Ms.Quest is quite busy that
“Jessie, Ms.Quest had gone on a business trip for a few days, she's not back yet. As soon as she comes back, I'll send her over to accompany you for a while” Jessica was disappointed when she found out about this.At first thing, she thought Bethany was keeping her distance from her after getting into a feud with Danica.She had read online that Bethany and Danica got into a fight after Danica’s show flopped but she didn't expect that things would get this harsh.Danica was the perfect villain and nks that things had gotten to this level, she song hold back anymore.“Is that so? That's alright.Ms.Quest is very kind hearted, she makes me so happy” Jessica said with a warm smile lingering under her eyelids.Zayn was surprised to see how sweetly she talks about Bethany.On Top of that, he noticed that the mention of Bethany’s name lit up a smile on her face.He didn't think too much about it and was glad.“Jessie, I'll arrange with the doctors and get you transferred to the Platinum Villa
“I'm dying, Zayn. I'm dying from everything, there's no reason to continue!” Jessica sounded so weak as if she had given up on life.A few weeks back, Zayn had motivated her to continue living no matter what.However, seeing that he had given up on her, Jessica decided she had no reason to live anymore.“What are you talking about, Jessica? You shouldn't give up so soon. I'm here with you now, I was a little busy and neglected you for a while, I'm so sorry” Zayn was apologetic as he took her hands into his and kissed them.Her thin hand was utterly cold and devoid of life. In the end, Zayn got scared.“You have too much to deal with now. Why would you bother yourself with my responsibility? I don't want to trouble you so don't worry about me”Even though it sounded as though Jessica was being considerate. In reality, she was pushing him to the edge to make him feel bad.Zayn couldn't bring himself to look her in the eyes, he blamed himself for her condition. So, he could only tighten
….In the hospital, Zayn waited at the door of the ward while the doctors attended to Jessica.He was worried sick and couldn't stand still no matter his much he tried.A few days ago, Jessica wanted him to visit her and stay by her side for a while to keep her warm and chase away her loneliness for some time.However, he was too busy and requested to visit her later.If things went wrong and she didn't make it, he would begrudge himself forever. At this time, a nurse came out of the treatment room anxiously and was heading out when Zayn stopped her in her tracks.“Nurse, what's happening to Jessica? She was just fine, right? How come she's critical?” Zayn demanded, feeling suffocated. Frustration was evident on his face as he couldn't help but worry about Jessica.“Mr.Meyer, I have no idea how Ms.Ferguson is faring right now. Her condition suddenly retrogressed and was rushed to the treatment room immediately then I had to call you up since there was no one else” Zayn was riled up
“ENOUGH! Shut the f*ck up, everyone!” After tapping his feet against the floor for umpteen times and they still continued to argue, Bent squealed loudly, causing them to stop brawling and look in his direction. “Do you know what your problem is? You never learn from a mistake. You all are so dumb and fall through without hassle!” Bent yelled, losing his patience at their trifling scuffle.Everyone was stunned by Bent's sudden outburst; no one knew what came over him.In the end, they all glared at him with curiosity and waited for him to say a word.Cone to think of it, Bent had been quiet the entire time and suddenly burst out with anger.“What's wrong with you, Bent? What's with outbursts? Did we do something wrong?!”Sapphira Grand, looked at her son and asked, tilting her head to grasp his expression.“How could you all not realise you are making a mistake right now? Do you not realize who the actual enemy is?” Bent asked, he had a somber seriousness to his tone. At the mentio
Once Zayn left, they turned to look at each other with complicated gazes. “Why would Zayn hurriedly leave in the middle of an important family meal? What was so urgent that he couldn't care less about Grandpa’s health before dashing off? Who knows if Zayn truly cares about Grandpa!”Joanna broke the silence with her rhetorical questions.Even though it sounded as if she was worried about the old man, she was simply trying to ignite the burning flame in his heart.She could vividly remember that Mr.Meyer Sr still held a grudge against Zayn for what happened to Giselle Medina. Joanna stole a glance at Mr.Meyer Sr and saw the vain expression on his face, she smiled hideously. She scoffed before saying.“Maybe, he's really busy today, Zayn’s never left Grandpa alone before especially while he's sick”At this time, everyone noticed the dark aura looming around Mr.Meyer Sr, he was getting offended at Joanna’s remarks but he couldn't say a word since he was telling the truth.Zayn had always
