Chapter 19

Octavia shifted on her foot.

Why was the atmosphere turning bad.

She bit her lips, moving back. This was bad.

A hand went to her waist just as she was about to fall.

"Ha! Thank you so much William." She mumbled, and shook her head.

That was on stupid move.

"Mr Wayne." William stretched out his hand for a shake but Bennett never took it.

Were they enemies? Well, that was their problem.

But why was he looking at her like that?

"Do you know each other?' She was forced to asked, because of their stares.

"Yes, Bennett is a long time friend. Well, that was before it all began." Williams answered and she nodded, not wanting to know what began.

Men and their problems.

Women were the only people suppose to hold grudges not men like them.

"Ha! Forget about all those past problems." The girl called Charlotte mumbled with a wave of her hand.

'Stupid buggy girl.'

"You two fit each other very well, I didn't like what the tabloid wrote about you the other time. That Christian Berth is no

She mumbled, giggling."Then sign the contract Miss Octavia. I personally made that fun." He said and she frowned.Couldn't he for once stop talking about the nonsense Contract."I will sign it after the fun we'll have again tommorow." She said and he hissed."Look here little one, I don't have the time to come play tommorow. I did everything I did for that contract. You can't tell me to come back the fuck here tomorrow and play again. What are you? Seven?" He glared hard."Well, I'm so sorry for all that Mr Yuan.

    Chapter 21The day was going to be hectic.She knew that. She didn't wake up at the right side of the bed, so she knew how bad the day would turn out.Her head was banging so hard.Damn! She should have listened to Ryan and get some rest rather than sign the huge paperwork.Running her hand through her hair, she sighed as she took a seat on the chair at the dining table."What's wrong with you? Hangover or headache?" Sofia asked, walking out of the kitchen with a mug of tea.Dropping one for Octavia, she sighed as she grabbed the mug and gulp the content down in a go.She was so tired."I did tell her to rest her head last night, but she didn't listen." Ryan walked in with a mug of tea too."I did rest...""But it was too late." Ryan completed, cutting her off."When did you get back?" Octavia asked, turning to Sofia to see they woman roll her eyes."Who do you think prepared the food Ryan brought to you? Don't tell me you lied to her, that you prepared it?" She turned to Ryan who rai

Who is chasing us?' She asked. Bennett didn't like this one but! He gave her a sharp glare that shut her up."Fuck!' He cussed.If only she had listened to him and go inside, then he was sure he could have handled them pretty well but there was no way he'd fight them and she'd be beside him."What the hell is wrong? Oh God! I wouldn't have come here." Octavia cried, as he drove out of the garage.She turned and hell! there was a car following them.A huge black van!"What did you do to this people? Who the fuck are there?" She asked, as the car drove out to the road.God! She had never felt so afraid.The car that had been chasing them, was now getting closer and was now beside them.Octavia looked up and the driver of the van glared at her, and used his hand to gesture that he would s

They both snapped their eyes to they people that has just entered the house.Octavia could swear she had seen him smile before he turned.It was just a lift of the upper lip but damn...it was everything one could ever wish for.How could one smile so sweetly but never smile at all?He walked down the stairs, staring at the man who was on his knees."Mr...?""Gordon.""Hmm...what a good name you have there." He chuckled."No one sent me."

I sat beside my window after taking my bath.One could see little of the flashlights and the city road light from where i sat.There was silent...dead silent and I wasn't used to it.I was use to the bickerings between Sofia and Ryan and I.My eyes widened when i recalled that i had not even called them yet.Rushing out of the room, i walked down the stairs.. looking for Bennett.My cellphone. After the incident, I had misplaced my phone and right now i wanted to speak with any member of my family.Walking through the hall, i sniffed the air to perceive a sweet aroma that was coming from a room close to the hall where i stood.I walked faster and my eyes widened seeing Bennett in front of the gas cooker.Was he cooking?"Are you going to keep standing there and

    Chapter 25After dinner, I had gone up to the room I had been given to have a good rest.This was the kind of time Sofia and I would use to play some chukoo or video game.I switched on my cell phone.They were missed calls of Ryan, Sofia and... Williams?Why would Williams call me?I dialed Sofia's number and waited for a few minutes before she picked up."Octavia!!!" I pulled the phone out of my ear."Can you stop yelling and listen to me first." I half yelled as well."Do you know how worried I was? Do you know how worried we were? Do you know I was about to call the police and tell them about you missing?" She half yelled.I could hear Ryan's voice, telling her to stay calm."Don't fucking tell me to stay calm Ryan, she's... Uggg!" She scoffed.Silence reigned between us.I wasn't at fault. It was Bennett."I'm sorry." I mumbled."Apology accepted. Where are you?" She asked.Sofia was like a mother to me, although my mother was alive and well...she stayed with Grandpa to make sur

I have to leave for a suit at Riverside and DL and then home." I replied..He nodded, glancing up the stairs and quickly walking away out of the house.I looked up the stairs to see Charlotte standing there with a smile on her face."He's avoiding me.""What did you do?" I asked. Jace was a nice guy and avoiding her meant she did something and with the smile on her face...I could tell she did something very dangerous."I did nothing Octavia. That guy needs cleansing." She replied, walking down."You're leaving.""I am." "Yeah, you have to....you know get back to taking pictures and smiling beautifully." I rolled my eyes."Those cameras? Do they affect you?""They once affected but now.. I've gotten use to it." I said."Well, goodbye sweetie and break a leg." She winked and ran away giggling.Jace would have

I yelled, kicking my slippers out of my leg and walking to the living room.My eyes widened seeing the people at the living room.What were these people all doing here?"Hello?" I waved to get their attention and they turned to me and waved."Ma'am. Miss Mondragon." My assistant ran to my side."Hmm Clara? You didn't just ran up to me to say nothing, right?" I asked, as she kept silent even when I was staring at her."I'm so sorry Miss Mondragon. But there was something out about you on the tabloids with Mr Yuan and since Miss Sofia could not come to the office, she called us here to come and have the meeting here." She mumbled and I nodded.Not everyone in my company knew me or have seen my face before. There was a big gap about me being a CEO and a model.Only trusted workers who had been with us for many years knew me as the CEO and model.

Grandpa was happy and although my father and my stepbrothers and sisters weren't smiling..they came.Even if they didn't...fuck them!They didn't know about my husband being the leader of the Italian Mafia. One word from me and they'd be eradicated from the face of the Earth."Baby." Bennett's hand snaked around my waist as he rubbed my belly."Hey." I mumbled and turned around to hug him but was stopped by my bump.He chuckled and I pouted and turned around."Three months left and we'll be holding our little pigeon on our hands." He said, and kissed my cheek."Wel

He had every reason to, but no....he wanted to die."I've got you, baby. Fuck! I've got you." Bennett kept singing to my ears as he picked me up and took me to his car.I blinked back the tears and shook my head."What's wrong?" He asked."That guy..." I choked. "That guy wasn't bad... He's just sick in the head and his own father uses that to his advantage." I said.Bennett sighed."That was why I was willing to let him live." He said."I'm sorry you got to see something like this.""He talked about the bane. About your father... about His Father telling yours to jump down. It was all for the business. He wasn't a bad guy." I cleaned my eyes again, feeling a little sting in my eyes."Stop crying, please." He pulled me to himself and began to stroke my hair."Thank you for coming for me." I mumbled."There's no need to thank me about that, baby. Wh

He whispered, and tuned to Bennett and smiled."Let her go Matteo and I promise to keep you alive." Bennett said, more like a groan."Keep me? You have guts coming out to a place like this and letting her show up as well.. we've been watching her. The love of your life, no?" He Chuckled, and so did they men beside him."Bennett..." I whispered."You're outnumbered, so you better be careful." Matteo said again.He was right for that one.They were five and Bennett was just alone.He was alone and he was making threats?"She's so delicate..oh my God!" Matteo exclaimed and grabbed my chin."Is that a bruise I see? It's not just one...Fuck! a body of a model." He laughed.I looked over at Bennett. A bone ticked in his jaw and his grip tightened on the gun in his hand."How does it feel when you fuck her Bennett? Huh?" He chuckled. "Come on, tell me

He was wearing a black booraldo suit and a black tie.His hair was well arranged, his perfect well shaped jaw made it more sexy..as he ran a finger down his chin.... making me have a clean view of his beautiful Rolex watch.I stood in front of him but Bennett said nothing. "Why are you here Mr Stone?""The party was held for models and businessmen....and that includes me.""So you didn't come here today cause you're a Mafia man?" I asked, a smile forming on my face."And you're not here today cause you're a businesswoman? Quit the acting miss Stiles, it doesn't suit you." He said.I chuckled. I didn't expect him to play along."Ha." I shook my head."Why are you frowning? Got ditched?'"Watching my girl let another man kiss her on the cheek, God knows how I had to restrain myself from going over there and tearing that shit apart.""Don't do that, he was my manager before....Miss Chen."

"No.""Good." Calista walked closer to me, a towel wrapped on her head."It's a good thing you're leaving the modeling industry.""Oh please.." I rolled my eyes, knowing what we were about to talk about."It's a good thing....really." She shrugged, as she knelt down in front to me and began to eyeshadow my eye lid again."Please..not too much, I have to look like my normal self. They'll think I'm doing too much." I mumbled."Or you don't just want Bennett to ruin your makeover when he sees how stunning you are... Don't worry, I'll put in an extra kit in your bag." She chuckled. "I'm going too, though. So you don't have to worry about a single thing." She smiled and I rolled my eyes.They were hosting a party for all models and I would take this time to tell everyone about my stepping down."You'

I watched Bennett and Jace talk, not meaning to eavesdrop on them.They were just talking so loud."The man has some serious problems going on in his fucked up life, had to mentally prepare for him. They called him a dementia patient." Jace said, as they watched someone on the laptop.Who were they talking about?Well...I was in still in Bennett's penthouse and the sun was shining brightly. I was typing down something in my laptop."He comes to this very spot every day at around 2:30pm. He has guards stationed everywhere and I think he knows he's about to die soon. Man's a heartless dick!" He said again.Bennett said nothing, they whole time. His eyes flickering to me and then the laptop as if he knew I was listening to th

Bennett yelled at the top of his voice."I did." I said, feeling my throat tightened. "But you didn't pick up." I said.He groaned, turning around to punch the wall.Fuck! That would hurt."Not that line Octavia, my other line. How could you call a line that has not been working for months!" I was scared to the bone, so without looking I had called the number Bennett was using when I had began working as a model for his company."Can you stop yelling already?""You don't know what would have happened if they had gotten you. Fuck! I should have been here." He groaned again, punching the wall."Bennett!" I half yelled, grabbing his hand as he made to punch the wall again.The red dark eyes

Calista asked, again as we took another road.It was but I wasn't going to tell her that.Scared isn't what was going to keep us safe now.Fear surged through my veins."I don't think so." I said. "They are thousands of cars on this road Calista, why would they follow us?" I asked and she nodded with a sigh."Yes, you're right. Why would the follow us?" They were following us. The last time I had encounter such was when Bennett and I had gone to his penthouse that was outside the city for safety.Bennett wasn't here right now and I didn't know what to do.There was no way I'd be driving to the mansion, that would take them directly to my home."Why are you speeding like this? And why the heck are they speeding too?!" Calista yelled at the top of her voice as I sped the car, heading straight to where Bennett had taken me that time."Calista... I'm not going to lie to you."

Calista mumbled, going from the sofa to the chair and back to o the sofa."Can you stop moving, you're spinning me." I said, pausing my finger on the letter A and scrunching my nose out of disgust as she ate her macaroni grill fish.It smelled so bad."And what kind of fish was used to make that?" I asked."Fish that stink but taste so nice...." She said, and shrugged before adding "Obviously.""Wow." I smiled at her and she smiled back, not before throwing another piece of the fish into her mouth."Remember me to tell Dali to get something to clear the air.
