“Oh,” She mumbled before taking the carton from Elon as she turned around and walked towards the elevator.Ramona pressed the elevator button and the elevator door slowly opened. She entered the elevator, and pressed a button that would lead her to the rooftop.The elevator door slowly closed and she rested her back on the elevator wall as she slowly bent, sighing loudly.She brought out her phone, and went through the post that was posted on the anonymous forum.Ramona began to wonder who's bent on ruining her despite her good personality but there's something Ramona does not understand which is if do good to please human, you can never satisfy all the human beings in the world….good people are bound to have haters, and even bad people are not excluded.“Hope Sebastian, and Belle haven't seen this post. I'm innocent, why me! Why do these false rumors have to be released today out of all the days in the year?The elevator door opened, and stepped out of the elevator heading towards th
After working for three hours with her colleagues, going for errands. She still maintained the smile as she kept herself extremely busy to have time for her phone and talkless of worrying about the post.“Ramona, let's go,” Britta said, as she stood up from her chair, and Ramona hastily stood up.“You and Drew will follow me to a meeting outside the company. Shirley, handle the proposal and send it to the client, and wait for their response,” Britta added, and they nodded.“And I will go on lunch with the company's card,” Erin stated, and walked out.“Erin, come back here!!!! I suffered to get that card for this team enduring RC harsh, and terrifying voice” Britta yelled but Erin was gone before Britta could finish what she's saying.“Shall we,” Britta said, “And where's…….” Britta's voice trailed when she saw Drew at the front already with his pod on as his eyes were glued to his phone.“Seriously, indeed there are wrong people in this team. Ramona, sweetheart, let's go,” Ramona smil
“Goodnight everyone,” Drew said, and before everyone could give him a brief look he's already out of sight.“I know, you are never wrong Britta, That kid got employed in this country through nepotism,” Erin, the senior manager stated, and Britta just nodded her eyeballs.“Right, Shirley,” Erin said, and she nodded as she smiled.“Stop smiling, and stop supporting him in every little thing he says. You are an intern here and he does not have the power to employ you but I have the power to put in a good word for you if you need a permanent job here,” Britta uttered, and Shirley slowly faded the smile in and Erin glared at her before leaving the section.It's closing time already.Ramona shut down the system, and carried her bag with her cellphone as she stood up.“Thank you for welcoming me warmly in this team,” She appreciated and Britta and Shirley smiled at her in response.“You don't need to appreciate it. Just continue your innocent personality which I love, and your kind gesture,”
Ramona had her bath, and after bathing, she wore an oversized shirt then carefully placed Fluffy on the bed before leaving the room with her cell phone.She switched on her phone to see if Sebastian had seen her message. She went to the message app, and he viewed the message without giving her a reply.Ramona sighed, getting frustrated, angry, and confused with his attitude. She does not know if she should be angry at him for ignoring her calls and messages or if she should be nervous for deserving such treatment.She got downstairs, and went to the living room to stay with his mom. She saw her eating some apples. Ramona watched her eat her fruit slowly, just like the exact way Sebastian does eat.Now she gets where Sebastian gets that habit from. Lady Mary came to the living room, and served Ramona a fruit juice who gladly received it from her and bowed.“Thank you Lady Mary,” Ramona appreciated, and she left the living room.“Mother, do you need anything?” Ramona asked, as she stare
Ramona took off her wedding ring and placed it on his chest. She's beginning to doubt if he loves her like she does.She went to her closet, and selected the clothes she will wear tomorrow with the heels before approaching the door.He left the entrance, and she left the room, heading to the guest room.“He saw my message and could not reply, he could not even return my call back,” Ramona mumbled as she kept scoffing.She shut the door behind, and placed the clothes on the sofa in the room, and the heels on the floor, close to the sofa, and Fluffy on the hairy rug.Ramona stood straight as she packed her up in a ponytail with the hair band on her wrist then rolled the hair.She turned around, facing the door and saw Sebastian at the entrance, resting on the door.“Ramona,”“I don't have anything to say” She said, and slowly sat on the bed ignoring his existence.“Are you seriously mad at me, and now you want to go on a break, you even take off your wedding ring,”“Sebastian, if your m
Ramona smiled as she watched him sleep peacefully. She caressed his cheek gently before removing his arm from the waist he held possessively. She took her phone from the nightstand, making sure she did not wake him up.She hopped down from the bed gently and went out of the room. She tiptoed to her room, and gently opened the door to see his mother sleeping peacefully.Ramona gently shut the door as she went away, going downstairs to the kitchen to get a bottle of water. Her tummy rumbled as she suddenly had the urge to eat, and drink milk.She went to the fridge and brought out some snacks and milk juice. She placed them on the dining table and took a seat on the dining chair about to eat her food when she heard the sound of footsteps approaching.Ramona paused to see who's coming, and saw Sebastian. He approached her and stroked her hair gently.“Are you hungry?”“Very hungry, I wonder why,” Ramona replied, and he watched her mount on the food.After eating, she drank the milk, and
The next morning, Ramona woke up in Sebastian's arms as she snuggled in his arms like a kitten before opening her eyes.She looked up to see him smiling as he stared at her. He's awake already.“Good morning,” She greeted , giggling, and he kissed her hair gently.“Morning, dearest. It's 6am so I think you should hurry up and have your bath,” Ramona euee widened at his words and sprang up immediately. “Geez! Thank you,” She appreciated, hoping down from the bed as Ramona kissed his forehead before dashing to the washroom.She had a quick bath, and after bathing, she stepped out of the washroom tying a towel around her naked body.Sebastian is not in the room. Ramona hurriedly dried the water off her body and prepared for work.She wore a white singlet then sky blue Chevron which has a rope at the side of her neck which knot matching her dress with a long pant. Ramona wore a black heels and walked towards the mirror.She cleaned her face with a wet wiper then applied light make up on
As soon as it was 8am, everyone in the development team rushed to the meeting room, and settled it before the CEO came in.“Is the team truly changing from development team to development and planning team,” Shirley said, and Britta nodded positively.“Guessing, that's how things will be,” Drew muttered.The meeting door opened and everyone went silently as he entered the meeting room with Elon.Ramona began to wonder why everyone is scared of RC, though he can be very straightforward and blunt with his words but she believes he's a good man. “Morning sir,” Britta greeted.“I will be quick, the company's fifth anniversary is coming forth so I would like the development team to take charge. It'll not longer be a development team instead it will be development and planning team,”“Okay sir, are you planning on celebrating the fifth anniversary?” Britta asked.“Yes, and Elon will send necessary documents to you. I want this team to take charge of the event. You will handle the guest, an
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
