~ LATER IN THE AFTERNOON.Sebastian wore his tie as Elon listed out his schedules for him. As soon as he was done listing it out, he stopped talking, and closed the iPad.“Sir, I thought you said you want to work from home?”“Things change everytime” Sebastian replied, and Elon nodded at his response.“The investors, you have a meeting with them today, and today is the sales report” “What's today?” Sebastian asked, as he stared at his reflection in the mirror. He touched the burn scar on his face, and suddenly smiled.“Sunday,”“She will come back home early today, I should better not stay late today” He mumbled.Sebastian left the room, and Elon followed him behind holding his suitcase as they went out of the penthouse.They entered a black Lexus, and after an hour they arrived at the office due to traffic.Sebastian headed straight to the meeting room, and met the investors, there readily waiting for him with one of his employees on the podium, ready to present.“I'm sorry, I'm lat
After the hug Ramona went inside the house, and met the shock of her life. She froze as her feet became stuck on the floor as it refused to move.“What are you doing here?” Ramona questioned when she saw Maya Hancock in the living room, seated on the couch.“For business,” Maya whispered, slowly, and Ramona slowly read her lip. Her worst fear has arrived.Maya Hancock has always been a pain in Ramona's neck. Always hurting her, insulting her and always looking for every chance to humiliate her.The one she did in the supermarket, was she not satisfied with it?? Did she know that she's coming over to Belle's house?? Why is Maya in Belle's house, and what's their business??Ramona entered the living room fully with Belle arm linked with her arm.“Welcome, sweetheart, excuse me let me quickly attend to her” Ramona nodded, and took a seat on the sofa as she watched Belle and Maya discuss.As they discussed Maya kept glancing at Ramona. She looked beautiful and didn't look like one that's
Ramona followed Belle inside a room, and Belle turned on the light. Ramona's mouth widened at the sight of the beautiful interior of the room. “For who?? The room is so beautiful” Ramona said, going inside the room as she glanced around smiling.“For my unborn child, Deacon was the one that picked the pink interior because he has faith that I will give birth to a baby girl but I want a baby boy” Ramona smiled, “That's good,”They gave the room a little tour before Belle took Ramona to the second living room.There was TV there. Belle switched on the television and switched the station to the station where they do show comedies.Ramona sat on the hairy rug, and started laughing as she watched the comedies. Belle walked towards an intercom that's in the second living room, and called on a maid who answered her immediately.Belle went to sit next to Ramona, and a maid came to the living room, and bowed slightly.“Ma'am,”“Get me some alcohol, and fruit wine with two glass cups,” Belle
*FEW DAYS LATER*BESIN SKINCARE COMPANY^CEO OFFICE.Belle looked through the files in front of her and closed it. She looked at her employees and smiled."I guess skincare and cosmetic products are really growing at a rapid rate," Belle said and they nodded."Yes ma'am ""What a great job but we need to come up with a good technology that will set us apart from other skincare companies, you know this is a competitive market " She added."Silving networks created some for us but we are yet to launch it out, we want you to access it first " “Really, let me check it out. I wasn't expecting them to be that fast,” Belle uttered as she looked at the technology products in front of her and picked the electric gua sha, a facial massage tool that helps to reduce oldness."What are the features of this product?" Belle asked, she turned on the electric gua sha, and used it to massage her face."We keep the consumer's problem in mind and come up with a better technology tool that can solve the p
*RC CORPORATION.Sebastian's eyes scanned the files in front of him. He took a pen and started making some corrections to the paper.His phone rang, distracting his attention from what he's doing. He picked the phone, and check the caller ID before picking the call.“Belle,” He spoke first, and heard her dried laugh.“Mateo was right, same Ramona” “Okay, anything else?” Sebby asked, and Belle scoffed at his cruel, and nonchalant attitude.“I have cut ties with Maya Hancock, she's a swindler and Ramona was damn right. She spoiled Ramona's name in front of me, actually I wasn't expecting her to behave like a low life girl when she's a boss woman in conning”“Anyways what did I expect” She added, and Sebastian nodded.He dropped the pen he was holding, and swung the chair as he stood up and walked towards the huge window.Sebastian stared at the beautiful view outside, still on a phone call with Belle.“You did well, keep watching over Ramona” He stated.“Now, you have turn your pregnan
Ramona arranged the duvet on her bed, and picked up the vacuum cleaner as she cleaned her room.The mess Fluffy made to her rug, she's cleaning it up herself and doesn't want to disturb Lady Mary and Butler Alberto.She was still cleaning the rug when her phone rang. Mona walked towards her phone that she placed on the bed. She picked the phone up as she checked the caller ID.Belle Sinclair.Ramona picked the call and Belle's worried voice came up first.“Ramona , please don't get mad at Sebastian if he act harsh and scary towards you this night,”“What's wrong?” Ramona asked.“Someone made him angry, and he might act very violent, please try to calm him down. His anger is not good at all because the last time he was angry, he burnt down a house”“A house?” Ramona repeated.“Please just take care of him,” Belle stated, and ended the call. She said something she wasn't supposed to say, a house knowing fully that Ramona doesn't know about his secret wealth.Ramona placed the phone on t
*AFTER ONE WEEK*The ray of sun reflected on Ramona's face as she reluctantly opened her eyes. She took her phone that's on the nightstand.She switched on her phone, and Ramona saw two missed calls from Tyla.Ramona told Tyla she would be comfortable to meet her today so that's why Ramona is seeing two missed calls on her phone.She got down from the bed and wore her bedroom slippers as she walked towards the washroom. Ramona got in to see Lady Mary preparing her bath.“Good morning, Lady Mary” Ramona greeted, cozily, and Lady Mary gave her a glance before smiling brightly at her.“You are awake, good morning Ramona,”“Your night?” Mona asked, and entered the washroom fully.“It was good,” Ramona took off her clothes, stark naked before entering the bathtub as the soapy water covered her nakedness.Lady Mary took a soft sponge as she washed Ramona's body.“I'm fine, my hands are fine, I can move my hands and legs perfectly,” Ramona said, and Lady Mary just smiled as she cleaned Ramo
Ramona just stared at her looking confused, what's really going on??Why is she crying???“I’m sorry for hurting you. I was really stupid, Ramona please forgive me, don't be mad at me” Ramona slowly held her hands and smiled at her.“I have forgiven you, okay so stop crying” Ramona stated, and Tyla smiled out in tears. She slowly disengaged her hand from Ramona's hand as she cleaned her tears slowly.“Thank you, for forgiving me,” Tyla said and Ramona smiled.“So we are cool now?” Ramona asked, and Tyla nodded happily as she drank her coffee.“Let's go and have fun at the amusement park” Tyla suggested and Ramona nodded in affirmative, supporting her suggestion.The two of them stood up and Ramona went to the cashier and paid her with the black card Sebastian gave her.The lady's eyes widened at the sight of the Black card, it's a black card for billionaires, and not everyone can use that kind of black card.The lady glanced at Ramona, checking her dressing from head to toe, and she
As the day drew near to dusk, the earth cast a dark cloud in the sky, telling the little foxes to go for a rest.At HILILi Estate that night, the whispers of two adults could be heard from a corner of the garden. The whispers were accompanied by sweet kisses and giggling of two lovers, who hid themselves in their warmth inhaling the breath, from each other’s nostrils as they stood gazing uninterruptedly at each other's eyes.However, the aura inside the house was pretty tense as the voice of a woman screaming her life out, and of children jumping in merriment could be heard from the large living room of the opulent home.Amidst the ruckus from inside the building, Ramona and Sebastian wrapped up themselves disregarding the distraction from the kid. They trusted Lady Mary and Dianna to handle the situation. The moment was blissful as the family came to understand why they must forgive each other and allow love to lead.The reconciliation between Ramona and Sebastian affected everythi
Despite the hurt in Belle’s heart from a broken friendship, she still gave Ramona a hug when they got home.In her confusion, Ramona didn't know that her new boss was a friend of Deacon. According to Deacon, Scott told him about the feelings he had grown for Ramona but only got to know the truth after he showed Deacon a picture of Ramona he took while she wasn't aware.That day as Romona stepped her foot to the home she once found comfort and solace, a drop of tears tickled her eyes. Belle’s home still bore the love and warmth she knew even after five years.Belle, after a warm treat, poured out all her grievances at what happened five years ago. In a heated conversation, Belle asked Romana if she had been pregnant with Sebastian before she left the house.The air still as a question that would clear the doubt of everyone was thrown at Ramona. With hands clenched to each other, Ramona let out her answers shocking everyone and confirming Sebastian’s words earlier. For days now, Seba
That day, the sky cast bright lights on the roofs of the city, calling it a quiet day from dusk to dawn.It's been a week since Ramona and her family moved from Australia to New York City. Having made enough money to sustain their livelihood, they rented a cozy apartment far from every tiny thing that had to do with Sebastian and the Sinclairs.Having spurred herself to cater for her kids without exposing them to Sebastian and his family, Romona decided to work harder for her money, while Lady Mary took care of the kids.Luck played its way around herself and Dianna as they got picked by Quib Technology, one of the most popular companies in New York City after the N.C. group. The company’s pay was mouth watery too so Ramona didn't have to worry. That morning while it was day's break, Romona got up from bed to the kitchen, trying to get a lot fixed before going off to work. She loved her new job but it was a bit strenuous yet, she had no will.For days after the encounter with Sebasti
Standing dumbfounded by the hallucinating scenery that was yet to unfold before Sebastian, he lifted his numbed cold feet, increasing his pace to meet up with the woman who just walked past him a while ago.In an attempt to re-identify with the woman, Sebastian called,” Ramona” His breath longing for clarity and confirmation at the people he just saw. Sebastian’s voice echoed deep into Ramona’s soul sending an impassive sensation into her once-broken heart. With eyes filled with tears in an overcome battle of forgiveness from the past, Ramona made a slow turn, avoiding the interruption from the busy airport. Having Kain, one of Sebastian’s heirs in her hand, Ramona with her head buried on the floor, stood face-to-face with Sebastian, her body longing for his warm hug.The noise from the busy airport and the trailing sound of luggage struck yet, a certain acute silence swept both Sebastian and Romona's feet as they stood to face the reality that now seemed clear before Sebastian’s e
The morning sun rose down the earth that morning, calling it a Monday morning in New York City.Being the only one left in the grand house at HILLI Estate, Sebastian has learned by compulsion how to go shopping and make his food without the help of anyone. Five years of Ramona's departure taught him a lot about life. Since he had wiped off all his enemies, his life has been peaceful without him having to be bothered about foes threatening his life anymore.He has been conceiving the thought about getting a child lately seeing that he was childless and needed an heir over all he has. Having resolved to go back to his formal way of life, Sebastian had decided never to get married again but to adopt a child for himself. That morning as he was preparing to go out, he got a text from Elon telling him about the business meeting he was having the next day in Los Angeles and his flight had been scheduled to leave that day.Vaguely unaware of these plans, Sebastian angrily calls Elon back to
The day became brighter as Romona's babies began to increase in height and so Romona began to feel the need to introduce them to their father. The winter season was over and Romana could not believe it was five years already. Lady Mary has been pestering Ramona on the need to go back to her husband and makeup with him but Romona has been adamant claiming she could raise her kids alone.As the family sat in the living room, Kayla, the one female amongst the boys came crying to Ramona, reporting Kain and Kelvin, her older brothers to her Mom.“ Mom, Kain takes to and doesn't want to give it to me” Kayla cried more, her eyes seeking comfort and justice.Lady Mary being a grandmother figure to the little children, carried Kayla and consoled and wiped off her tears. Soon, the two boys, Kain and Kelvin came running toward Ramona and Lady Mary.“ You boys, don't make your sister cry next time again, okay?” Lady Mary warned, putting Kayal down to have a word with Romona.Chuckling, the boys
In Australia, the buildings and roofs were covered with the first drop of snow reminding the residents that Winter was here. The previous season, Autumn, was favorable to Ramona and Her newfound family. Ramona glanced at her protruding baby bump and smiled. She was in her EDD. She couldn't believe that it was nine months already and she was expecting the arrival of her newborn.She rubbed her stomach with extra happiness ringing in her heart. That morning, Ramona sat on the bed of their three-bedroom apartment, heavy from the weight of her pregnancy. Australia has been a home of safety and protection for Ramona and her unborn. Life in New York City tore her to the bone but she was shielded from All of that tempest immediately she arrived in Australia. Ramona could still remember the one man she had ever loved. The scars and tumult were imprinted in her memory forever but the joy of his seed, ready to be born gave her a new hope. Her pregnancy was the only remains of Sebastian in
That morning, Brett, without any expectations, did come earlier to the company like everyone else. Engulfed by a serene environment with no tempest, Brett resumed his duty but was taken aback when Elon burst into the office with two policemen by his side and under a cold breath, he muttered”, What is happening here? What are you doing here with these men, Mr. Elon?” his eyes sparkled, fear written in them.“ You are under arrest, Mr Brett. You are advised to remain silent because whatever you say shall be used against you in the court of law” One of the Policemen said.Perplexed at the situation, Brett with up with yes fixated on Elon while his hands were handcuffed. “ This had been your plan all along, right? “ Brett with wide eyes glared at Elon, his breath, thrusting up and down like he would swallow up anyone who came to him.“Please take this man away. He had caused the CEO and the company too much havoc” Elon beacon on the policemen and walked away. Cold, shaken, and broken, Br
That day as Sebastian left Belle’s, he returned to the company to reflect on how foolish he was to have conceded with Kendra’s presence around him. The snake showed up at a challenging time to wreck what he suffered to build for years. After the day’s work, Sebastian stumbled into Brett taking a stroll outside the company to get a cab. He guessed his car developed a fault seeing Brett had never taken a cab home before. Without uttering a word to him, Sebastian zoomed past.Brett, for a second, stood gazing at the rate at which Sebastian’s car sped before retiring back to his phone. Belle’s phone conversation with Sebastian earlier was the reason he permitted Brett and Kendra another chance to breathe sterile air before he took his last revenge on them.For the wound in his heart, he planned to slaughter Brett and Kendra but at the mercy of Belle and Deacon, he spared them to take a night to tour the city otherwise, they might not get the chance to ever catch a glimpse of nature fo
