The Devil behind me Chapter 108
Back in Axel's mansion, they stared at each other for a while before Axel opened up "It was" he said shortly, there was no need to hide it from her since she would end up finding out about it and also the Corvin clan which appeared she was yet to have a hint of, for now. Mirabel pursed her lips, as if speechless as to what to say next, she seemed calm hearing this, because she always had the feeling that it didn't just happen. She never mentioned it to anyone because she had no point to prove her instinctual thoughts, but no matter how hard she tried to push away the feeling, it always came back. "You know who?" she asked in a very calm tone before she rested her head back on Axel's shoulders to hide the tear that was forming in her eyes and threatening to fall out. "For now, not sure," Axel said before giving her a slight peck on her head "Sorry for digging back into it without your consent, it seemed to be tied to my father but I don't know how or why that's another reason why I a

Mirabel walked to Arabella's apartment after Enoch dropped her off. When she got to the door, she tried to open the door but realized it was locked. She dipped her hands into her purse to use the spare key to Arabella's house which she had. "Geez" Mirabel muttered in frustration when she didn't see the key in her purse, she forgot to pick it up from the table at home cause that's where she dropped it. Mirabel gave a knock on the door and waited for a while but she received no response so she took out her phone to call Arabella. The call was answered after the second ring "You are here already?" came Arabella's voice. "Yeah... where are you?" Mirabel questioned her. "I'm here" Mirabel turned around as she heard Arabella's voice from behind her. "Went down to buy some stuff" Arabella walked to her holding two bags in her hands "Pick the key from my trouser pocket," Arabella said and turned. Mirabel dug her hand into the pocket to bring out the key. She brought it out and inserted

"Hey! Have something to work on, and might not arrive home today, but if I come it would be late at night" Axel's husky sweet voice rang into Mirabel's ear as she brought the phone up after answering it. "Umm..." Mirabel didn't know what to say to this, cause this was probably the first time he was calling to inform her of things like this, and although it sounded strange, it was still very sweet and considerate of him "Ok then, goodbye" she said calmly. "Mn," Axel said before he ended the call. Dave, Marcel, and John stood in front of him with blank faces while Axel had his back resting on his black range rover. "Marcel, stay behind in case anything arises, John you also. We need someone that can give us the needed information from here. Dave and I would meet Lucas at the town" Axel informed his men who nodded with an "Ok, Sir" Axel would have preferred that Lucas get the man and bring him here, but as much as the idea would sound easier and better, the last thing he wanted was t

Stephen came to a settlement with the manager before he left there with Harris, taking a last glance at the condo opposite. It was a plain coincidence at first, he would never have thought she also lived here. And one thing he failed to understand was why she ran back inside in such a rush. "Hey, dude! why have you been spacing out" Harris said as they arrived at the hospital premises. It was Stephen's car but Harris was driving. "Uhh, nothing really" Stephen replied. before he got down from the car as the car came to a halt at the parking lot. Harris also came down and followed behind Stephen who made his way to the elevator that leads straight to the DIRECTOR'S office. Stephen didn't say anything at all till they got to his office and Harris asked. "When are you moving into the condo?" he questioned It was still Monday so Stephen answered "Maybe before Wednesday," "Ok then," Harris said before he took a seat on the couch while Stephen walked to his office chair. They were the

"Jeff, take this to the clan tech room, inform Raymond to dig into it, and give me feedback soon" Samael handed out the almost torn paper to Jeff who received it immediately before he left the place. Samael glanced at Quinn "What else did you find to be suspicious?" he asked. Quinn shook her head "Nothing" Evan didn't say anything also, he bowed his head "I'll take my leave, sir" he said and left after receiving a nod from Samael. Not sparing the lady who sat down a glance. Quinn's scrutinizing eyes followed him till he left the place, releasing a deep breath she dipped her hand into her pocket and brought out something which was wrapped. She opened it and threw the bubble gum into her mouth. Samael and Quinn didn't say anything to each other for a while "What's with you and Evan?" Samael questioned as he noticed Quinn's little interaction. She turned to look at her father who was looking at her skeptically as if he found something out, Quinn squinted her gaze at him and said "No

Mirabel stood opposite the mirror as she applied a very light lipstick, she was dressed and ready to go to work already. Mirabel was glancing at her phone again and again after every two minutes, she had been expecting Axel's call but it never came. She didn't even get an ounce of sleep after she woke up around two this morning. After applying the lipstick she picked up a brown leather shoe from the shoe rack and wore it, she wanted something comfortable to match her white top and brown pants. Mirabel took her bag and held it to her shoulders before she walked out of the room, she got down to the stairs and saw Amela, the maid walking toward her direction. "Good Morning, young madam" she greeted respectfully. Mirabel still wasn't used to being called young madam, so she bowed her head a little appreciative. "I'm going to work, please inform me with a call when Axel returns," Mirabel said. She was about to pass Amela, but she stopped on her steps when she heard "I'm sorry young mad

With her bag on her shoulders, Mirabel made her way to the car which was parked by the end of the road. "Mirabel" someone called out to her and hearing the familiar voice made her stop on her steps. She turned around, and just like she assumed, she saw him, it was Steve. It's been a long time since she heard of him, she thought. "Steve? What are you doing..." Before she could complete her statement, he pulled her close to him and hugged her, his action made Mirabel unbelievably stand stiff before she came back to her senses and pushed him off, not too hard. "What are you doing here?!" she questioned. "I came to see you," Steve said, he didn't look better than the last time they met, rather he looked worse, with his hair disheveled and his face pale and dry. "Why? I don't remember us having a reason to meet each other" Mirabel said, sh
