Quinn glanced up at the sky before she looked back down at Mirabel who had her gaze directed straight at a tall tree, they were in the forest right now and trees surrounded them, big, tall trees that made a shade above their heads. Mirabel sat down on the forest green grass while Quinn stood directly beside her. "What do you want to tell me?" Mirabel said after a long while of sitting and saying nothing to each other. She turned her gaze to the lady dressed in all black who had her back resting against a tree. "Your parents died as a result of... Don't know how exactly to start this but your father and mother's union was never accepted from the beginning, that's something you should know about first before anything" Quinn squatted down and picked a stone from the floor. Mirabel didn't say anything as her gaze followed Quinn closely "I'm not in the right shoes to tell you this story, my father is, and he would explain better when I take you from here" Quinn threw the stone up and cau
Days ran out fast and soon it was Friday, Mirabel woke up when she heard a sound from her phone which dinged with a message. Still feeling groggy, Mirabel yawned, her back was aching so badly cause she had been sleeping on the couch beside Axel's bed, she glanced at him, he was still unconscious and there was no improvement in his health for the past few days. Mirabel took a bottle of water from the table beside the couch, uncapped it, and then gulped it down, she stood up and walked to the bathroom, returning a few minutes later after she had brushed her teeth and also rinsed her face. She picked up her phone which made a sound that woke her up, it was a message from Arabella which read.~~Sunrise, Sunshine Mira!! time to wake up and make breakfast for Axel. *Giggles* I'll remind you this every day till your early moon is over *Wink* A tear escaped from Mirabel's eyes as she stared at the message, she had lied to Arabella. She lied to her friend that she went on an early moon with
A disaster that needed to be solved soon. "We have to think of something fast and soon," Stephen said, almost having a throbbing headache on the recent happenings. "But what?" Mirabel cried, right now she knew she couldn't just leave tomorrow till all this is settled. She can't just go with Quinn when they had an issue to solve right here. She was confused about what to do, everyone was confused. The door was opened and John walked in alongside Dave whose condition was now okay as he could walk properly, his injuries were healing already. Troy looked at Mirabel as he hesitated to speak, not knowing if what he was about to say would make any sense but he still went on "If things get worse, we would have to tell them what happened, but we would wait for a few more days first" he said and Stephen nodded in approval, that was the only thing they could do right now, buy more time and wait for a few more days with the hope that Axel wakes up from his unconscious state. Axel who lay on
STUART'S MANSION*** Old master's study room, it was Saturday morning and the newspaper arrived at the mailbox outside of the mansion. Master Stuart was in his study room sipping his early morning coffee as he looked out of the window to the garden, his gaze traveling around the different colors of flowers that decorated the garden, he stayed there for a few more minutes before he stood up from there and walked to the table, he picked up his phone to make a call but the loud knock on his door from someone outside made him furrow his brows in anger. Why would someone come and knock on his door this way, early this morning, the person knocked again, this time harshly as if he or she couldn't wait any longer. With a frown on his face, the old master walked to the door, his walking stick clicked as he approached the door, rather than telling the person to come in, he decided on checking who the person was first. With his hand on the door handle, he opened it to meet Vince who looked to
Troy hung up the call after the call ended with grandfather, he rubbed his palms on his forehead and rested his back on the couch "Can things just not get worse" he muttered. "They would arrive in less than an hour if they take the private jet, what are we going to say to them if they come? Grandfather is already panicked and furious" Troy said, after telling his grandfather about Axel's accident, he asked what happened but he told them he didn't know how to explain the situation, and now they were coming to Arlan. "It's good they know now, at least that problem is canceled," Mirabel said as she picked up her phone from the table next to the bed, she hadn't switched it on ever since last night. Her action earned a glance from Troy who shared a look with Stephen, she was going to find out about the article and there was nothing they could do. Mirabel switched on her phone and at that same moment Troy immediately stood up and grabbed it from her hand, his action surprised her and she
Mirabel wasn't completely sure if it was the person she was thinking about. Maybe Stella had finally decided to a make move after all the empty threats she had been giving for a while now. Whoever did this would be someone who was there when Steve had come to the front of the company to harass her, cause that's the only way anyone would know about what she had with Steve before. Marcel needed her to at least call someone she might suspect it to be so they can have a lead on where and who to search for, he waited patiently for her, they were all waiting for her to say a name and after a few minutes, she finally opened up. "I think It's Stella" ****** About Almost an hour later, everyone had gone out of the room and it was only Mirabel left, she had just finished several minutes' call with Arabella who wanted to make sure she was okay, even after she had assured her that she wasn't that bothered about the article. Mirabel dialed Charlotte's number but it wasn't reachable so she tr
Vince became silent for a while, this was the first time that Troy was standing against him and it was all because of her fault, his gaze moved from Troy to Mirabel who was at his back. "This is what you planned, right? By coming into this family you intend to break the bond of this family, they can all say what they want but just know I'll never approve of you staying with Axel," Vince said with a serious tone, his words shattered Mirabel's heart, why would she want to break the bond of the family? she would be lying if she said his words didn't hurt her. "Would you just stop this, your son is laying unconscious over here for goodness sake" Reina cried. The old master didn't say a thing again, he just kept shut with his gaze straight on Axel. "This is the last warning I would give to you Mirabel," Vince said before he turned his gaze to face Axel. Stephen stood there not saying anything, no one had anything to say, they just wanted Axel to wake up, none of this would happen if he
Mirabel looked around the vicinity of the place they just arrived, it was a very large space with three buildings, one tall one in the middle, and two other small buildings beside it. This is called the CLAN CENTER, that's what Quinn told her, the place was surrounded by tall fencing, so you couldn't see what was going on outside and vice versa. There were other houses outside of this, Quinn referred to this place as the main center and where the head of the clan stayed "Let's go in, Father is waiting for us inside" Hearing Quinn's words pulled Mirabel back. She nodded and with that, Quinn made her way to the tall building, climbing the stairs case, while Mirabel silently followed behind her. After climbing up to the top of the stairs, they walked through a dark corridor and Mirabel couldn't help but look around, the corridor was silent, and only the sounds of their shoes could be heard, after several turns, they finally arrived at the elevator. Quinn went in and Mirabel followed.
