Still shocked, gentle footsteps came down from the stairs making Bella raise to her feet immediately.
She tapped Miguel who seems less interested in the person walking down the stairs. Slowly, his face was visible, the man looked like he was in his late sixties. He doesn't look that old and very well kept. As he approach, Bella felt her heart thumped loudly in her chest. What does it feel like to be close to a Mafia godfather? "Yo Old man, you never subscribe to the fun TV programs, always with news and old school songs" Miguel said with his gaze on the TV to the old man. Charles Rodriguez took his seat opposite Bella who was standing and looking at him timidly. He cleared his throat and grabbed a pillow and threw it at his grandson. "Since when have I warned you to always inform me whenever you want to come home? Just going and showing up like a ghost?" He asked with a very stern and fearsome voice still ignoring the lady standing before him. Miguel threw the pillow aside, "it's my house as much as it's yours old man" Charles Rodriguez cleared his throat again then looked up at Bella. "Who are you?" Bella fidgeted a little before answering with all the courage she could muster. "Em... Grandpa, I'm Bella Trump" With a nonchalant voice, Miguel chipped in, "That's my wife Old man. All thanks to your that sent her to my room" As Charles Rodriguez heard this, his face perked up. He looked more keenly at the lady before him, it as was indeed the lady he had arranged to be taken to Miguel's room. "This is the woman? Wow she looked more beautiful in real life than the picture. You see now that my hypothesis are right this time" the old man smiled contentedly proud of his own actions. Bella can't help but smile at his cute actions. "Come here, Bella right?" "Yes Grandpa" Bella smiled and walked up to him and sat beside him. Miguel casted a look at his wife and Grandfather smiling at each other like old times friends. "You have became friends with her that soon?" He asked with shock. The old man ignored him and smiled more broadly at Bella. "You're a beauty my dear, my choices in women are never wrong. This silly brat didn't just take after me. But I'm very happy that you agreed to marry him" Miguel Rodriguez now sat looking at them. "Grandpa, I'm more happy to met you. You're so handsome, I can see where Miguel takes his good looks from" Bella complemented even though she was silently cussing at the old man. 'This cheeky old man is the reason I'm in this mess today' She cussed. She smiled again as Charles Rodriguez praised her. Bella Trump wasn't that bad too. She had classic looks that could make a man fall for her at first sight. "Enough of your bluffing, she's not the lady in the picture. She's mistaken for that person" Miguel interrupted them. Charles Rodriguez looked up to his grandson immediately, "What? How come?" "The woman that owed me that I want is called Vera Nash. And this is Bella Trump, the just have thesame height" He explained. Charles Rodriguez waved him away, "Who cares whether she's the fake or the real? What matters is to see you married, and this Bella Trump is definitely the best choice" he said again. Miguel shook his head in irritation and faced the TV again. Charles took Bella's hand and patted her carefully like a precious flower vase. "My dear, which work did you do?" "Grandpa I'm an actress" she replied with a courteous smile. Charles's eyes lit up in glee "Wow, my granddaughter-in-law is a Celebrity in making, tell me, if you want to produce your own movie, grandpa will sponsor it" Bella smiled again. "Thank you Grandpa" After staying with the old man for another half an hour, Miguel called it a day and left Emerald Villa leaving Bella behind to chat with his grandpa. But before he left, he warned her as she escorted him. "Don't you even tell him who your father is. He could kill you off in a breath of he learns that you're Cartersville Trump's daughter" ~~~ Miguel Rodriguez strode into his office with his usual stern face as Ross, his subordinate rushed in. "Boss there's a video call request from Cartersville Trump" he reported. "Return it in voice call interface" He replied. After sometime, the call connected Cartersville Trump's voice came through the phone flowing into Miguel's ear. "Miguel Rodriguez, I don't care who you are or what you look like but release my daughter or else I'll loose the last patience I have for you" He threatened. Miguel's laughed coldly, "Father-in-law, is that how you talk to your son-in-law? I heard you have only daughters, is this how you'll great your second daughter's husband?" Cartersville was silent for sometime then he said again. "Listen here Rodriguez, I don't give my daughter to you. Anything between us should be between us don't you dare drag my daughter into this or else...." "Or else what? What will you do? You should have prepared for the worse when you sent your daughter to spy on me Carter. Have you forgotten what this place is called? This is AGATHA!" "Your daughter Bella Trump is now my wife as I have procured our marriage certificate. Tell your other counterparts that you failed at getting Agatha. Because Agatha is not just a one man organization! Agatha is a nation in it's own" Miguel said angrily and meanly at the phone. In tearful voice, Cartersville Trump asked again. "But why are you doing all these? Why is Agatha punishing me? You hijacked all my goods, all my contract goes into your hands. My personal properties are almost usurped by you and now my daughter why are you doing this?" With a malicious grin, he replied in two words "Watch out!" Then he ended the call.Bella occasionally nods her head as she listens to her father and stepmother’s rants. She was determined to let go of all alliance or any help her family wanted to offer to her and leave the house. “You ungrateful brat, I took care of you like my own and made sure you got everything Bianca did not have still, you're determined to make me the bad woman in front of your father?" Mrs Linda shouted with crocodile tears on her face. Bella gritted her teeth as she heard this, what is she saying? She stole all her movie roles for her daughter, she made her sleep out whenever she came home late and here she was saying she gave her everything now that their father who was occasionally at home is now around?Bella Trump was the first daughter of the Liverpool Multibillionaire business mogul, Cartersville Trump. Her mother died while giving birth to her younger brother who was a heart disease patient and her father therefore remarried his long-time concubine who had a child for him out of wedl
>EMPRESS HOTEL, PRESIDENTIAL SUIT“Yes tell me”There was a cracking voice at the other end of the phone then a hoarse voice rang through the phone. “Boss, we have the woman in our custody” The young Boss sighed in relief, but his cold expression did not change a bit as he replied. “What of the goods? Did you find them in her possession?” “No Boss, but we made sure that we caught the right person and took her to your room”His brows knitted. what is
The next morning, Bella Trump woke up with a sore body as she realized that she was naked and was lying in the arms of a man. “What is this? Who's this man?" She said aloud trying to remember how she got on his bed. Miguel Rodriguez stared awake from his sluomber and saw the woman sitting beside him with a naked body. He gasped as he saw a slender shoulder full of hickeys. The pink lip marks were everywhere, even near the mole at the arousing position. Still with her mouth gaped, Miguel stared at her face, she was looking shocked as of she didn't know how she got there.The lady jerked off as soon as she saw him with the duvet around her body."You... You.... Who are you? What have you done to me?" Bella asked with a shaky but firm voice. Miguel remained silent and looked around the room. His gaze fell on the glass of wine sitting on the stool which he hadn't seen before which meant she was drunk from the narcosit drug-laced wine.Her lips and eyelashes were blinking gracefully. Sh
The study room was just adjacent to the father's room. Bella vamoosed into the study room with a lump in her throat. As she sat down on the chair opposite her father, she silently prayed that her inner fears were never confirmed. The study room was silent save for the flipping of the books left by the window side. The long silence made her more nervous. After some time he began, "I don't blame you for staying out last night but I am just slightly afraid" then paused again. "You're an adult, so I don't expect you not to have a friend or anyone that you will visit but I just to want to know" Bella tightened her grip on her wrists. What is he going to say? She could feel her heart shaking in her chest. Without knowing, tears ran down her face. The father stood up and his once fatherly care expression suddenly disappeared. His face formed a scowl and his arms akimbo. "I am sorry Dad" she managed to say. The tears on her face didn't make a difference to the father as he began his wor
Bella sat like a lifeless log on the chair in the study room. The stepmother was there too adding more fuel to the already burning inferno in her father’s heart. She wondered how it would have been if she was Bianca. Her one-night stand from last night added to her grief. “I hope I don’t see the bastard again because if I do, I’ll skin him alive” She swore in her mind.The atmosphere around the room was heavy. There was no sound. Each occupied in their thoughts.“The choice is yours, Bella, if you want to make it big in the movie industry, you have to agree to my terms” her father reaffirmed. Bell sighed. What is the use of having a rich father and still suffering alone? She decided to agree to his demands if that was the only chance for her to get to the top that she had always wanted to get to. “Okay Dad, I accept your proposal, but how do I spy on them? Where do I start from?” Her father broke into a cheeky beautiful smile. The stepmother also smirked. “Good decision daughter,
“STOP!” a cool and serene voice was suddenly heard. Before Bella and Camilla could know it, two fierce bodyguards stopped them.Bella and Camilla looked back and damn they were facing a handsome man whose face was stern and cold. Camilla almost turned into Jelly as they walked up to him. Bella was as well, shocked as she saw the handsome faced man clearly. She opened her mouth ajar."You?" She called with her eyes popped open.The man amidst the train of bodyguards also opened his eyes in Surprise, isn't she the woman that was brought to his room by mistake?Why on Earth is she here? He gestured to his bodyguards and made to leave the scene by entering his car but Bella stopped him."Hey, Hey, Did you think you can leave me without explanation like you did yesterday?" She blurted.Camilla and thr bodyguards that were around were surprised at that question, they wondered where the boss knew the crazy woman. Camilla moved closer to Bella and asked, "Babes did you know him?" Bella di
Miguel sat majestically on his seat as he looked at the lady before him. He silently cursed his grandpa for making such a woman end up in his room. Bella stood like an obedient child looking around the room, trying to get a hint about his post in the organization. She saw the name plate at the centre of the table bearing, "MIGUEL RODRIGUEZ, THE PRESIDENT OF AGATHA INTERNATIONAL FIRM" She froze. This man was the leader of Agatha and she was wasting her time to find him? Miguel Rodriguez was his name? "You... Are you really the bearer of this name?" She asked with a surprised tone. Miguel raised an eye with caution and disdain, "What if I'm not?"Just then, his secretary came in with a tablet about the information of Bella Trump he has asked about. Miguel was shocked as he read the information about her on the tablet.She was Cartersville Trump's first daughter. What could be her motive for coming to spy at his company? Miguel couldn't have thought of any other possibilities as he
In the next minute, Bella Trump came out of the huge building of Agatha group of companies with the boss of the organization holding her hand protectively. Camilla, who was standing outside waiting for her friend was shocked to see her coming out with the man that hand bundled her in earlier. She wanted to rush towards Bella but was stopped by the wave of bodyguards that were surrounding them so Camilla could only stare at her friend from afar. Bella Trump sat beside the man whose gaze was fixed in the road. She tried recollecting how stupid she was earlier but her brain only blamed her instead. 'What have you done to yourself Bella?' She asked herself inwardly as she looked at the man again. After a few turns, they stopped in front of the marriage registry. Bella opened her mouth in awe. How Impatient of him. She had thought that he was taking her to her father but he had actually brought her to a Marriage registry. She shot him a glance, "What are you doing? Why did you bring m
