There is no one on my mind" he replied and sat up to have a look at the file. "I don't snitch" she said like a whisper but audible for him to hear, Goerge heard her but smirked and ignored."What is this about?" He asked and Benita smiled. "This is a contract I got with one of my contractor, I think the offer is cunny but I can't find the error, so I need your help with it" She explained and Goerge glanced through, "it's quite simple, I will get it done but not today, is two days from now okay with you?" He asked as he closed the file."No problem, no rush, I will swing by to get it later" she said and stood up. "Okay, we will see then" Goerge replied and stood up with the file in his hand."What's your plan for the night?" Benita asked and George smiled, "I have a growing trouble to deal with at home" he replied and Benita laughed at him."Don't tell me, you are talking about your daughter, they can be stressful at times" Benita said and Goerge chuckled, "take good care of her, I mi
Beatrice legs were already shaking and her hands were itching, she wanted to pich her finger nails so badly but Goerge's word wouldn't allow her pinch them.Goerge was over joyous in his heart as he watched her struggle so much with herself on how to explain her actions to him. He looked at her, waited for a few more seconds before adding to her tension."Miss Beatrice Edward, I was told you were the one that made Joy's sunset gown" Goerge said and she looked up and was confused. Weren't they talking about the morning incident?, How did they get to the sunset dress?. Anyways, the discussion is in her favour, so why won't she be happy to talk about her handwork."Yes, I did" Beatrice said and Goerge nodded slowly like he was thinking about what she just said. "How many days did it take you to finish such gorgeous work?" He asked.Beatrice was happy as she heard a compliment from her boss, who would have ever imagined the ice king compliment a common craft that she did at her leisure t
Beatrice's eye widened as she didn't understand how the discussion fast tracked into her being Goerge's woman. "Good day ma" Beatrice said slowly and politely."Don't call me ma, I'm Kate, his mother's younger sister, so I'm his Aunty, that makes me your Aunty" Kate said as she pulled Beatrice cheeks and hugged her."Aunty Kate, you misunderstood me" Beatrice said but Kate didn't pay attention to her words at all, she was so excited that she walked into the house straight to the sitting room."I'm Benita '' the lady said and Beatrice smiled while scratching her neck, "I'm Beatrice, please can you explain to Aunty Kate that I'm not Goerge's woman" Beatrice said shyly."Cut the chase, I know, it's just that this matter is complicated," Benita said and held Beatrice's hand. Beatrice closed the door and they both walked toward the kitchen to discuss behind Aunty Kate's back."What do you mean?" Beatrice said nervously. "Calm your nerves down girl chill" Benita said as she walked around in
Kate looked at the two of them and was speechless, she didn't know where to start her questions from and who to direct her questions at. She looked at Benita and she hid her face."What is happening?" Kate finally asked after the awkward silence for a few minute. Goerge calm down and went to Kate's side and sat beside her.Joy who was at the other side, stood up and walked to Beatrice side immediately. Goerge was baffled at what his daughter just did to him, he could see she was not going to forgive him any time soon."I will explain" Benita said and everyone looked at her. The atmosphere was still tensed and Beatrice was about to cry as she felt sad after Goerge's question."I intentionally called Beatrice, Goerge's woman because I wanted to pay him back in his coin. He went ahead to break the news of my relationship to you without asking"Benita said and Goerge was surprised at the reason he was been set up by the drama queen. "But Beatrice why did you go along with the lie" Kate
"Come in" Goerge said without looking up to see who was going to walk into the study. Beatrice opened the door slowly and walked in without a care."Sir, Aunty Mimi said you wanted to see me," Beatrice said with a bow as she walked close to his desk. She was very careful not to distract or disrupt anything in his office.Goerge looked up and sat back to have a better view of Beatrice. "Yes, I sent it to you," he said in his authoritative tone. Beatrice's heart couldn't help but skip a beat when she heard him."About the earlier happening…" he said but Beatrice instantly looked up and interrupted him even though her voice was shaking and her heart was speeding."I'm sorry sir, I shouldn't have been part of the lie, it's beyond my boundaries and I'm sorry for that, sir" she said and Goerge could still feel her angry.Goerge chuckled at how silly she was acting at the moment, to those who are novice, they might think she was sincerely apologizing but Goerge could clearly tell that she wa
Her voice was not heard by Goerge easily. She cleared her throat and talked once more. "Sir" she said and he slowly looked up and saw Beatrice's face.He immediately pulled himself from her body and acted like he was bewitched into hugging her at the moment. He looked at her from her head to her toes."Take this like it never happened, you may leave" he said and Beatrice was shocked. She hid her embarrassment and walked out of his office sharply."Who wants to be caught up with you!" She yelled immediately she closed his door. She foamed and walked away toward her room. She was so pissed up that she didn't shower before she bounced on her bed, curling like a cobra.Goerge was mad at himself as well. He couldn't say if he was mad for hugging her or mad that he sent her off like that. He punched the wall angrily and took time to calm his nerves.He sat down and his eye went straight to the tray of cookies that was on his table. He wantes to ignore it but he couldn't. It loookes so entic
Beatrice walked into Goerge study and smiled when she saw the empty tray. She was delighted that he finished his snacks even though his mood was awkward yesterday.She carried the tray gently and picked up the mug he used to drink the coffee. She raised the mug up to her nose and perceived the scent of the used cup.She immediately coughed after perceiving it. The coffee was indeed strong. She quickly walked out to the kitchen to clean them up before heading to her room.She bought out her mini sewing box and picked out some fabric to work on. She looked at them as she tried to think of what she could do with them.While thinking, yesterday's incident with Goerge flashes back to her mind. She remembered vividly how he was so close and his face was buried in her neck.She kept blushing hard remembering how seductive his scent was, her body was on fire while near his body. She felt Goerge body heat and nothing was like it on earth.She knocked herself twice to bring herself back to life
Joy looked at Beatrice's face with pity before she left her hand and walked out of the study. Beatrice's heart wasn't settled as she was doubting what the discussion would be about."Come and sit down, Beatrice" he said and Beatrice took a deep breath before turning around to look at him. She walked slowly like she was walking in a dragon's cave."Did you put Joy up for this drama?" Goerge asked and Beatrice was shocked. What the hell is wrong with his thinking!. Beatrice was In a rage against Goerge."I would never do that because it's worthless" Beatrice replied with a strong aura. Goerge's eye widen when he saw that the shy Beatrice just replied to him harshly.Was he that worthless to her that she was In a rage at the mention of her putting Joy up to make them see frequently. Goerge looked at her while she looked away, staring at the shelf at the side with anger.Goerge thought of ways to make her regret what she just said. Goerge grinned wickedly at just one thought. Let her stay
"Joy Sebastian, come down right now, your aunty is here!" Goerge called out from the stairs as Joy rushed out of her room and walked down the stairs to meet her father.Joy looked around and met an empty sitting room and faced her father instantly."Where is Aunty Maria?" She asked and Goerge chuckled."Probably on her way coming, I guess" Goerge replied and Joy was shocked. She could not find a solid reason why her father would rush her to come down."Daddy, if you keep calling me like that, I might just faint before I can respond to you" Joy complained and Goerge chuckled again."As my daughter, you should be on your toes anytime we are having a guest!" Goerge said and joy rolled her eyes."Aunty Maria isn't a guest, she is our family, your sister, so I don't need to be up high to meet her!" Joy said and Goerge chuckled."We are having a whole lot more than what you are thinking, our first guest is just your aunty and maybe her dumb fiance" Goerge said and Beatrice walked up to the
A week has passed since Joel left Beatrice's home in the night and he was not reachable at all. Beatrice was worried but she had to bury her head in her new work."Sam, my phone beeped, get it for me!" Beatrice yelled from the kitchen and Sam grumbled before taking the phone to her."Check the message!" Beatrice said as she keep stirring the food without looking at Sam. Reluctantly, he checked the message and his face brightened as he saw the message."It's Joel!" Sam yelled and Beatrice turned to him with a surprised look. "What did he say?" Beatrice asked almost immediately."He asked you to meet him in a restaurant in the next street, Ace restaurant!" Sam responded and looked at his sister with funny eyes."Is he asking you out on a date?" Sam said and Beatrice didn't quite recover from the shock. Sam walked up to her and hit her."He said you should hurry up, he must have been waiting for you, go go go, I will take good care of the house and my girlfriend is coming around"Sam sai
"Thank you so much for hosting a get-together for me and doing this much for me, I really don't know what else to say apart from thank you!" Beatrice said."Don't mention!It's my duty to take good care of you!" Joel said and chuckled."It's not your duty, you are just being too nice of a friend to me, no one has ever treated me so good, it feels nice!" Beatrice said and Joel frowns at her."If I say it's my duty, it's my duty, don't argue with me because this guy right here knows best" Joel said and they laughed."So, what's next with you?" He asked and Beatrice sighs."Bid for jobs and get a profitable one!" Beatrice said and Joel hit her forehead."Why are you so dumb today? I don't want to know about jobs and bla bla bla, I want to know about relationship issues!" Joel said and Beatrice was shocked."Hmm, I don't really get your question then, can you explain?" Beatrice asked and Joel could only flink his head as he was frustrated."Okay, what do you think right now if I mention re
"Yes, her first kiss and you were her first crush and maybe love but you messed up, she went in search of Cecilia because she overheard you tell Joel you can be with her because she is a nobody.You didn't want to ruin her but you kissed her and she lay in your arms and probably you heard her heartbeats. That's all it takes to make a commitment to us.But After you did all those, you looked her in the eye and chased her out, you sent her out in the middle of the darkest night of her life.How dare you Goerge!" Maria yelled.Goerge looked down as he realized he really messed up.He really did spoil everything.Beatrice!Joy!Aunty Mimi!Maria!!!Mum!!! "This is so bad!" Goerge said and stood up from his seat and faced the see through glass."I am highly disappointed in what you did, brother!, I am hurt that it turns out that it was really you who messed up all along, brother" Maria said and each time she said the word brother, Goerge could feel the pain in his heart.Maria stood up an
Maria, knowing the in and out of the school properly, led Sam to an empty classroom and they sat down."Tell me what you know" Maria said impatiently and Sam chuckled. "If you are this curious, why did you speak with her?" Sam asked and Maria looked away."Okay, I don't judge,"Sam said and sat on the desk."Beatrice really went to meet Cecilia but it wasn't what it looks like to you and your brother.She went to meet Cecilia because she wanted your brother and the sweet lovely daughter to be happy.Do you know dumb Beatrice is in love with your brother? She still cries herself to sleep whenever she talks about it." Sam said and Maria was shocked."Yes, she said she didn't want to tell you that she loves your brother when the school resumed because she was scared you might insult her or cut out with her.She said thought she had a way in your brother's heart after they were cool for almost a week. They even kissed. Your brother took her first kiss and I think there was some smooching."
"Look at you, looking all round in your graduation gown" Joel said and laughed at Beatrice as she was nervously trying to arrange her graduation gown.Times does fly, three months have passed since the ugly incident. Beatrice is finally graduating from her fashion school with the best result and Joel has been with her since the beginning of the week and he was accepted by the family to stay for the week.Goerge returned to work a week after Benita's visit and Joel was free to enjoy his time in the city with Beatrice. Maria was released by her mother a day after her house arrest and she was busy touring around to see the fashion world better."Joel, are you insulting me or praising me, it's my day, man!" Beatrice said with a pout and Joel laughed at her."Sorry to burst your pretty pink bubbles, it's not your day, it's a day for more than 600 students in your school to graduate" he said and Beatrice turned away."Party popper!" She whispered and adjusted her cap. Joel smiled as he watc
Benita turned the sheet to them and Goerge was shocked. His portrait with a cloth he has never worn before."Whoa, this is awesome, she is so good!" Mark said as he stepped forward and looked at the sheet."Do you still have the wears, because I won't mind stealing those clothes because they look so lovely!" Mark kept talking as he was touching the sheet.Goerge walked to the and collect the sheet to look at it up close. It was well defined and so beautiful."Okay, I get it if you don't want to part with such beautiful clothes, at least connect me with the designer, I want to meet him or maybe her but I'm sure it's a man!" Mark said.Benita who was watching Goerge's shocked expression was quite to guess what the situation might be about."Did you just say Beatrice is a fashion designer?" Benita asked and Goerge nodded nonchalantly without looking at her.Mark looked at both of them so confused as he couldn't find the reason why Benita would ask those questions."You never saw those be
Within a few seconds, A man Maria had never seen before walked out from the hidden corner of the sitting room and bent down to look at her.Fear gripped Maria only by looking into the man's eyes. "Young Miss, I guess it's your turn to grow up!" The man stood up properly.Before Maria could think straight about what the man said, her eyes caught the tattoo on his chest. "Shadow!" She could easily link it up that he must have been her mother's secret bodyguard and most likely still belongs to the gang.The man carried her like she was a light feather and landed her on his shoulder before her thoughts could land.Then she remembered what all this was all about!"Mum!Why will you lock me inside!" She yelled but the PACs by which shadow was moving did not allow her to complete her words in the sitting room.Slowly, tears slipped from her eyes as she remained quiet and in no time, she landed on her bed and the next thing she heard was the door closing.Aunty Mimi sat beside Mrs Sebastian
Chapter 56What the hell is Cassandra doing with Maria!And they are smiling!!Beatrice got mad as she matched toward them angrily and hit the table, causing the drink to spill immediately."What is running in your head, mummy's girl!" Cassandra yelled and Beatrice chuckled."You get it all wrong girl!" Beatrice said back and Cassandra was confused."I don't have a mother!" Beatrice completed her words and everyone around started laughing and Cassandra got more angry."Maria, what is going on here?" Beatrice asked, facing Maria and Maria looked away, not daring to look at her best friend."I have been trying to talk to you all day, you were avoiding me!What happened?" Beatrice asked again but got no response.She tried to hold Maria but Maria shifted and Beatrice was shocked. Cassandra, who was noticing everything, suddenly laughed and the duo looked up."Finally, the cat was let out of the bag!" Cassandra said and laughed again and the duo were confused as to what Cassandra was sayin
