LOGIN"Ow amazing!" Her eyes held glint of excitement, she had seen it, her favourite of all time. A shiny Teddy wall. She sprung off immediately towards it.
"Gosh she really is Isa, but what was Dave saying." Austin hissed. How could he not recognized her when they were all friends. Bella grabbed a huge Pinky teddy along with the twinkling wallpapers. She was sure to have a marvellous sleep now. "Is that okay?" Austin asked and she nodded rapidly, these decors were her typical decors back home. Exactly as she wanted them. Austin does other shoppings for her without letting her know and they went back. When she got to her room, she began placing the decorations in their right places, but not without bliss in her eyes. Austin watched her in amusement. Everything about her was screaming Isa. But then, how could she not know it was him or even recognize Dave a bit.. they really must have changed alot, but then.. He went in a daze, until his phone came bickering at his ears. "Yes father." He muttered. "Son, I'm on the flight now, talk to you soon." "Yes father," "And take care of your wife." Smile crept to his face. "Yes father." Then a message suddenly popped up on his phone. "Boss, you need to come to the office now, there's an emergency stakeholder meeting." Without spending anymore seconds. Austin sprung off from the apartment in his BMW maybach. Bella who was speechless at the sudden run off, continued arranging her room and then suddenly slumped on the bed. "What sort of life is this though.. ran away from home and ended up with a cute stranger, trapped in his web now. How's Dad even taking this?? Gosh I don't even want to think about it." She covered her ears with her two hands. "This is choking!" Her breath hitched, she suddenly held on her chest, she couldn't take in enough air anymore as she kept banging on her chest. She had suffered panic attack since she was little and now, she couldn't believe it was here again. She staggered downstairs while breathing huskily. Bella knew she could really die if she doesn't do something. "Who's there?" She managed to voiced, but there was no one. She wasn't going to let herself die like this. Her stepmother would really have the final win if she allowed it. "Who's here!" she screamed weakly again but there was no one to her amusement. She dragged her foot, till she got out of the estate. Her breath sprung up the more, she couldn't take it anymore and she fell on her knees. Her pupil was on the verge of dilating now, but she dreadly held on for dear life, until a familiar face approached her. As though her soul had found solace in him, she gave in to darkness and fell completely to the floor. "Bella!" he screamed as he immediately held her on the floor. "Stay with me Bella." His shaky voice echoed but she was gone now. He swiftly grabbed her off the floor. "Bella!" He couldn't stop screaming in frights as he held her to his car. He drove recklessly down to the hospital with his mind shattered in several pieces. It was a good news he found her, but then on the verge of death. He paced up and down outside the hospital ward. "She's stable now, you can go see her." The doctor pronounced making him jerked forward immediately. When he got in, he figured she was tensed on seeing him as sweat began tickling down her forehead. Then tears suddenly dropped from a side of her eyes. She couldn't believe her father whom she had ran away from, was the one standing beside her bed now. How did she get here? she tried to shook her head but nothing was moving. Her body was stiffed, her leg wasn't moving, not even her eyes were blinking properly, nothing was okay. But then hearing and seeing clearly? She was dreadly frustrated inside. "{I need to get out of here!}" she tried to move but got utterly disappointed again, She was practically a vegetable. She suddenly paused, listening to whose voice was approaching. Her forehead creased, she got more tensed when she figured it was her stepmother's. "Luck on our side Henry, we need to get her married as soon as possible." "She's sick Sarah!" her father yelled surprisingly. Bella couldn't believe it, he had never stood up for her. "That's the point, we can't have her run away again, and you know we need this marriage Henry! we need to be in connection with the Kingston group." "Not while she's sick. Yes I agreed to your suggestion back then on getting her married to that lousy thing, but I never thought she disliked him so much to run away from her wedding. I nearly lost my daughter Sarah." Bella gasped on the bed. She knew it was her stepmother's plan to get her married for business all along, but today her father confirmed it for her. Where as some angers were now developing in her guts, she was also relieved to found out her father still cared for her so much. Not until she heard them again. "Audrey has just reported that the company sales has dropped by 10%, are you still sure you don't want this marriage?" He was silent, getting Bella frightened on the bed, Gosh. At this point she wished for miracle, if her father got silent like this, then he was going to have a second thoughts. She needed to run off, her fright intensified when he finally spoke. "How do you intend to do that." He asked with a heavy sigh. Bella knew this was going to happen, she had always known her father to be highly business minded, he could even sell himself for his company. "Now, you're in your right sense Henry." "Leave everything to me." She muttered confidently leaving her jerking on the bed. "Sarah, a wedding is needed, how are you going to do that?" "I said to leave everything to me, I'll be right back." She cat walked away beaming with all the excitement there was.Austin, in his perfectly tailored suit, sat in his office, his eyes fixed on his laptop. Then his door suddenly pushed open. He raised his head immediately to see the one person who had made his blood boil with so much anger. Just staring at him, adrenaline was released into his system. He was controlling himself so much not to send punches across his face. “You need to hear me out,” Dave sounded. “Get out. I don't want to hear anything.” Austin snarled, but Dave remained on the spot. He wasn't going to move an inch. He walked slowly, close to where he sat. This made Austin boil even more. He never thought he'd do such a thing to their friendship. He trusted him. “I know you hate me right now, but you're misunderstanding the whole point of this.” Austin's frown deepened. Such a deceit. “I care for you so much.” he started. Austin scoffed. Does he think him a baby? “You might not believe me right now, but I do.” “We all don't know how long it might take for you to ev
Then she tiptoed into his bed. “Who's that?” he muttered and Ann froze again. “Ow nobody is here..” he added going back to sleep. Ann chuckled seeing he was still very much drunk, judging from his voice. Her hand moved slowly and straight to his d!ck as she held it delicately. Caressing it as though it were the most vulnerable thing she had ever held. Swiftly, she placed her mouth on his d!ck and began sucking him. Austin’s soft moan filled the room. His whole body got weak as she kept sucking. A slight smirk appeared on Ann’s lips. She thought he was always forming a strong man for her? But now she had him weak and moaning. Then she began kissing—almost licking him from his stomach up to his neck, swiftly she grabbed his lips into hers and began devouring. “Isa? You came back?” He whispered amidst their kisses. Ann’s forehead deepened into a frown, that witch. “Yes baby, I'm back for you. F*ck me.” Ann muttered, her tone seductive. Austin’s eyes squinted,
Austin scoffed. “I promise, you were my best friend and still my best friend, if not for your family, I wouldn't be where I am today. So there's so much good stuff to do than lie to you.” He muttered, his tone vulnerable, enough to make Austin believe him. But not again. He was done being deceived. “If that's why you gave me this long break, Austin you are mistaken. Let me come back and work with you, like we used to. Don't let anyone who you're not sure of come between us.” Austin scoffed, this was it, how he used to confuse him. He was never a friend but a foe. “I promise I've never betrayed you, or ever will,” he added. Austin was feeling overly exhausted now as he drove off in the car. Dave looked back at him and his eyes grew darker. He was contemplating whether to stop the car and strangle him here or spare his life. As his focus deviates from the road looking at Austin, a car suddenly horn, bringing his mind back to reality. He breathed in deeply. He must lea
"Austin Richard, CEO of MTECH." the voice bellowed, his tone sarcastic. Austin paid no attention to him as he gulped down his drink and began pouring another. "What brought you here today? We don't see you that often." Austin assumed he must be one of his rivals as he continued pouring down his drink. He wasn't in the mood to give any lowly company CEO his attention today. "It must have hit you hard for you to end up here." Austin breathed in deeply; he was getting on his nerves now, and it was just a matter of time before he exploded. "That b!tch, she'd have been in my custody by now if she didn't escape." He muttered, his tone malicious. Only then, did Austin raise his head to look at the loser standing beside him. And behold, it was no other than his sworn enemy; Ethan Williams. His teeth clenched hard and his fist tightened. He was sick to his stomach just by looking at his face. He stood up slowly, his aura cold and gaze deadly. “What do you mean she escaped? What
Austin returned to his office with his heart crippled with pain. His face cold as he punched the wall. How could he be so careless? Where had she gone? It was a goodnews Jasmine got a scholarship and also great that she didn't leave Bella behind, but where did they go to? Was it San Francisco? New York? He couldn't place his head anywhere. He hissed as he went up and down in his office. Just then his phone started ringing—it was his detective. He sighed, picking up the call. "Boss, how's it going?" Austin's stomach twisted in knots. "I lost them," he said. "What?" his voice sounded, unable to believe it. He was sure that was their home. He made sure to investigate if they actually lived there or came for a visit and he was sure they lived there. How did they move in just a few days? "Could they have found out?" he speculated and Austin's eyes squinted. Could it be? Did they run away because of him? Did Jasmine really get a scholarship or was that just an excuse to
Feeling somber, she sank into the sofa. Why was it so difficult to get his attention? She was beautiful and always found it easy with men. Why was he so different and tough? Frustration dazzled her mind as she sighed.A few minutes later, the door creaked open, revealing Mrs Beth.She had a smile on her face "How did it go.." she muttered. Then her face darted around "Where is he?" She added."He used the back door.""Goodness!" Mrs Beth exclaimed, unable to believe it, she had forgotten there was a back door that only he knew the passcode. "It's okay dear, just don't give up and go home to your mum for now, you're the perfect wife for my son," she reassured."He should come around quick, I'm running out of patience," Ann groaned, her face twisted."It's alright, my regards to your mother "Wth that, she left.------------Austin had a smile on his lips as he drove along the lonely street of the village.A few minutes later, he arrived at the location his detective ha
