The Billionaire's Tomboy Chapter 18
RachelI don't know why they were this frantic.They kept knocking on the doors to the cubicle.If there was no sound, my pursuer would leave. They left any cubicle that had people answering with a voice that wasn't mine too.I clenched my phone in my hand as I stared at the door.My decision to find out about my coworkers was right but my way of executing that decision was wrong.It brought me trouble.It was obvious that these people that set me up had taken the cure for whatever they gave me.Their normalcy was the reason I was deceived. It was the reason I was pressured into drinking what they offered.My body was still showing me hell but I managed to lift the edges of my lips a little.Those people did not force me. I was the one that let their momentum and aura get to me.I was reaping the results of my actions now.Sweat began covering every inch of my body. It felt like I was dunked in lukewarm water.The sweat on my body cooled and more sweat continued coming out of my pores

RachelIt felt like I was going in and out of consciousness.When I came to, I saw that I was lying on Chase.My whole body was basically hanging off him.The thing that made my heart beat with intense joy was the fact that he didn't push me away.That means he felt something.The brief unconscious spree I had did nothing to improve my condition.I was still feeling hot.No. The keyword is heat.I was still feeling intense heat flowing through my nerves, skin and body.The drug was still working its charms.I couldn't focus. All I could concentrate on was thoughts of Chase.Everything I felt was magnified.A man wearing a lab coat was standing in front of Chase.The man's golden framed glasses dropped but he pushed it back into position with his finger."Mr Williams, I have gotten the results from the test I ran on Miss Rachel." The man said.From his words, I knew he was a doctor.It seemed like Chase wanted to treat whatever Patricia and her cohorts spiked my drink with.I hugged Ch

RachelThe feeling of satisfaction and the heat generated from the muscled arm laying across my midsection woke me up from a beautiful slumber.I stretched and I paused in the middle of my stretching.I looked around and I saw that I wasn't on my bed. I was not even in my room or house for that matter.My body unconsciously went into a fight or flight mode as I looked around warily.Soon, all the memories of yesterday poured into my mind like a tsunami.A red blush climbed up from my cheeks to my ears and neck.I cleared my throat a little."You are awake?" A deep voice asked and I turned around to meet the dark eyes of the man next to me.Chase's gaze was as intense as the day before.The mild ache between my legs was a glaring reminder of what had happened.I felt like a high school girl in front of her crush.I broke off eye contact and stared at the white headboard behind him.Chase had sat up.The white bedsheets pooled around his waist.I hummed as an answer to his question.His

Rachel"What?!" My mother said sharply as she rose to her feet again. Her hands was cleamched into fists. She looked ready to engage in a fistfight anytime.She did not look like she wanted to take her advice of using words instead of violence."Sit down, mom." I said and I patted the space beside me."Why were you drugged? Why did you not come home?" My mother kept firing questions as she took her seat.I smiled.I loved the care that her words and actions showed.She glared at me, "Why are you smiling? Is my words funny?"I shook my head quickly. I would face her wrath otherwise.The wrath of a mama bear is no joke."Nothing is funny. I was just thinking of something else." I said in a bid to appease her."Enough of that. Continue your story." She said as she faced me totally with her eyebrows furrowed in concern."My coworkers invited me out to a workers' hangout. I did not know it was a trap. They spiked the drink they gave me." I explained.My mother's hand appeared in my vision

RachelThe fury within me was bubbling. Still, I curbed the urge to lash out.I had to constantly remind myself that Patricia was not worth it. I should not stress myself over her.The reason I was more susceptible to rage is because of Chase. I thought he was the one that called my phone.The pain of my hopes dashing into nothingness fostered my anger."I am sorry. My hands are tied, I can not do anything to help you. Still, I accept your apology." I said curtly before removing the phone from my ear.My hand hovered above the red button that would end the call."Wait!" Patricia yelled and I stopped.Her voice was loud enough to grate my eardrums even as I had distanced the phone from my ear."Patricia. I don't have time to entertain you." I commented in a cold tone.I was being benevolent by exchanging a few non-lethal words with her.For a person that harmed me, I had tolerated enough.My patience was already stretched to its limits."Rachel, I am really sorry for acting against you

RachelToday was the day I would demand an explanation from Chase. I had used yesterday as a rest day.I did my chores and I freshened up.Norman wasn't going anywhere today so I borrowed his car.I was still on my leave.I didn't rush or panic. I got to Steel Cell Group's premises within fifteen minutes.I did not have time to greet the receptionist or socialize. I went straight to Chase's office.I stood outside his office for a brief moment. Then, I took a deep breath and knocked the door.I did not wait for him to give me the signal to enter before letting myself in.His head rose sharply and the hard contours of his face was set in a frown. His lips was parted in preparation to scold me for my disrespect.I did not wait for him to call me in before barging my way into his office. That was blatant disrespect to Chase.No matter how kind Chase is to his employees, he had some lines that he forbade them from crossing.My action was one of the taboos.His words died in his mouth when

RachelAfter we got the misunderstanding out of the way, I happily left Chase to his work.Now that everything had been resolved, I knew Chase would call me or text me when he is less busy.There was no need for me to be too stubborn. I did not want to stay in his office and obstruct his work.I got to my family house with happiness radiating off me.Tomorrow, I was going to go to work. I don't care if I had used up the required off days that Chase had given me or if I had not.I sat on the chair at the living room. The soft material caressed my skin.I groaned in comfort before switching to a tv channel that I liked.My mother came down from the upper floor.She was a freelance content creator and blogger so she stays at home frequently.She was the person a visitor would have a higher chance of seeing whenever the visitor comes to our house.She liked traveling or strolling once in a while.She was holding a laptop with one hand.Her other hand was typing swiftly on the keyboard."Y

RachelDays flew by and the chosen time for the employees' event to hold was here.I was already looking forward to a day I and Chase could relax.Chase was powerful. I knew this but even the most powerful elephant can be ravaged by a million ants.No one was all-powerful. Only God can satisfy those conditions.Chase was still mortal.Since he came back, he was just focused on stabilizing the Steel Cell Group.These past few days, our only way of hanging out with each other was through the phone. It was always through texts and video calls.Although I was working with him, there wasn't any space to just be alone with each other. I was the person that was closest to him but we were behaving like we were strangers that was poles apart.His work was really tedious.I did not want to disturb him so I bottled all my grievances inside me. This is the reason why I was looking forward to this outing very much.I would not be working and I would be able to spend quality time with my boyfriend.

RachelCrack!Something crashed on the floor and then, we all look towards the place the sound came from.My great grandmother was standing there with a look of shock on her face and the plate she was holding was the one that caused the noise. The whole hall was in a pandemonium.We were panicking and everybody was shocked. It was like everything wasn't real. The males of the family that was present rushed to Grandpa Theo as my great grandmother stared at them blankly.Everyone looked at Grandmother Rua as she stood there in shock. The males of the family grabbed my great grandfather and cleaned his stained face.The women wasn't idle.Rosette brought her phone out and dialed a number."Hello, doctor. Father collapsed!" She said in panic.She kept stealing glances at Grandpa Theo."Where are you? You have to take him to a clean and noiseless environment. The most probable thing that could have caused his collapse is an heart issue." The doctor advised."Okay, doctor. Please, come righ

RachelThe D-day finally arrived. Mirabelle's engagement party was holding today.Rosette was like a mama bear. She was involved in everything.She took precautions against me.Everytime I see her try to make me avoid anything related to Mirabelle's engagement party, I wanted to laugh.She was behaving like I was the bad guy.I did not have enough time for myself. Why would I chose to disturb Mirabelle's life instead?Mirabelle's engagement was held in the hall my introductory banquet was held in.Life can be very ironical sometimes.I am sure the hall gave Mirabelle bad memories. It was the source of her ruin after all.I left my room in my outfit.Thanks to Grandmother Rua, everybody in the family that was going to attend the engagement party had to wear beautiful clothes.She wanted to make this day a memorable day for Mirabelle.I headed towards the hall.I had delayed my appearance in the banquet for as long as I could.Grandmother Rua had sent a text message.I can't refuse to s

RachelThe days flew by quickly.The chosen date for Mirabelle's engagement was approaching.Mr Poyles refused to budge on this matter. The wedding was up to us but the engagement party was a must.I knew what he wanted.As long as Mirabelle is associated with him, the Claude family would do the wedding.They would not be able to lie like that.Public opinion can be very fatal.Sebastian had been very busy so I didn't see him often. If I saw him, it would be a brief meet and greet.Grandpa Theo had reduced the number of times he would go downstairs to relax.Nowadays, he would stay in his study for a long time.The incident Mirabelle caused really affected him negatively.I came out of my room and I headed to the North Wing of the mansion.I wanted to spend some time with Grandmother Rua.She didn't show any outward signs but I knew she was like Grandpa Theo.She was affected by the mess Mirabelle caused.Grandpa Theo's study was near his bedroom. Grandmother Rua had a lounging hall

RachelEverybody that had witnessed Mirabelle's slipup took their seats. The silence hanging in the atmostphere was choking.Mirabelle and Mr Poyles came downstairs to join us after wearing some clothes.After Mr Poyles took his seat, my great grandfather leveled his gaze at him."What do you want? Name your terms and we would satisfy it. You have to delete the pictures and videos you took if we agree on a deal." My great grandfather started.The aura of power he had gained from navigating the business life spilled out.Mr Poyles didn't flinch. He straightened his posture while returning my great grandfather's gaze.His demeanor was neither servile or overbearing."I want to marry her." His voice rang out.I knew he would not choose me. I have fooled his plans.Still, for a businessman like Mr Poyles, I feel like his company comes before his desires.He knew what he had access to and he was going to keep clamping on the Claude family's flesh till they give him something.The benefits

RachelHer scream pierced through the dreary atmostphere.I rubbed my ears to relieve the sharp ringing I felt when Mirabelle screamed.Her voice woke Mr Poyles up.He surveyed the room.His eyes widened when he saw Mirabelle beside him. His gaze stared on me for a brief moment.His eyes reminded me of a wild wolf.He didn't show any other signs of shock.He came down from the bed and went to the area his rumpled clothes were.Nobody stopped him because it seemed like he wanted to get his clothes.Mr Poyles found his phone from his wrinkled pile of clothes.He pressed something on the phone before aiming his phone's camera at the scene in the room.The sound of the camera capturing pictures was loud.He took photos of the unpresentable bed and he didn't forget to get some photos of himself.Mirabelle was captured by his phone's camera too. She didn't have time to cover her bare body before Mr Poyles took a photo of her.After taking a few pictures, all of us snapped to our senses.Mir

RachelMy words sent everyone into a frenzy.The worry in their eyes was clear. These people really cared about Mirabelle and their love would not change even with my arrival.They had brought her up after all. She had been their adored princess before I came.I don't know why Mirabelle failed to see all this. There was no need to attack me.I didn't like trouble and I stayed on my lane.We would have stayed in the Claude family peacefully.Now, it had come to this and there was no way back.The moment they decided to give me away to Mr Poyles, they had cut off any chance for us to reconcile."Where could she be? Is she resting in her room?" Grandpa Theo asked.He beckoned to the butler."Go and check Mirabelle's room. She might be relaxing in her bedroom and we would be here panicking." He instructed.The butler nodded respectfully before exiting the all.Silence reigned.A few minutes later, the butler came back. Mirabelle wasn't with him and his face was scrunched up in worry."Mis

RachelDragging a grown woman was a little tedious but I managed to do it. I was subtly supporting her and the ground did most of the work.The whole time, my heart was in my throat. There was a higher chance that my plan would fail.Thankfully, it didn't.Mirabelle was a little gullible.How can she follow a server out because an unknown gentleman sent her a private gift. I noticed something about Mirabelle.She liked to be adored. She wants people to like her presence.Still, I could understand why she didn't think too much before following me. The wine she drank had a great part in her decision.Before I could even serve her any wine, she had been taking some from the other servers. It was like the wine was an equivalent for water.I searched my memory for room Mirabelle had lured me to. I brought her there.The door was locked and there was no key in the keyhole.Mirabelle must have removed it.I dropped her and searched her body. I did not find anything.The key wasn't on her bod

RachelThe doors leading to the hall was open.I glanced at the hall's interior.Mirabelle was back in the hall. I don't think the rest of the Claude family had discovered her yet.I would have let this incident go bit I had boundaries. Trying to get someone to rape me was sick and I was going to pay her back in her own coin.She would stop trying to attack me like a rabid dog after this.These people would continue to think I was a pushover if I let this matter go.I gesticulated to get a server's attention.The server looked worried. She brought her empty tray and came to me quickly.She must be conjuring various reasons for me right now. I felt sorry for what I am about to do to her but I really need her help.Her uniform would go a long way in realizing my plan.I left the entrance of the hall and stood in the hallway.The female server approached me with the worried expression still on her face."Is there something wrong, ma'am?" She asked.I shook my head, "I just need a favor f

Rachel"Mirabelle told you to wait here?" I asked.I stayed where I was.I did not take any more steps into the room.I bit my lips.I was gullible.I thought leaving the party early would put a stop to the schemes of Mirabelle and Rosette.I finally knew where the slimy gaze from the party came from."Yes, she said you would be here." Mr Poyles replied.He was sitting on the only bed in the room."What do you think is going to happen by waiting here?" I asked.My hands touched the pen knife I strapped to my thigh."Miss Rachel, you are the one I would be with in this life. The moment I saw you, I knew you were the one." Mr Poyles replied.I smelled a particular scent.It was coming from an incense burner beside the bed.The scent caused my mouth to go dey.For some reason, the scent gave me bad memories.Some images flashed in my mind. The memories wasn't as clear as I would want it to be but it gave me all the information I need.The scent coming from the incense was an aphrodisiac.
