Sam switched on the bed lamp that only made the bed and his face visible while the remaining parts of the room were dark.Joel felt Beatrice's brother was too creepy. "Boy.." Joel said but Sam cut his words shut with a word."Sam!" He said and Joel nodded. "Sam, I don't know what enemity you have built against your sister's friend but I won't want us to start on the wrong foot.My name is Joel, like I said the other time. I'm your sister's friend and don't worry, I won't hurt her!" He said and Sam chuckled and switched on the main light.Joel looked around and wondered if he was really in a room or a laboratory. Sam walked to the table and raised a glass of a pinkish chemical up, he turned to Joel and shook the glass and a tiny drop fell on the floor and the spot burnt.The aftermath was a smoke and not too deep hole. Joel looked at the ground and then Sam faced and saw the wicked grin that flashed at him."I love playing with chemicals, don't mind me. Nevertheless, I will also toy wi
Beatrice stared at him in the eye and certainly couldn't find her voice. Joel didn't take his eye off as well and time kept ticking."Beatrice, I was joking, I just do my things for my friends" Joel said and Beatrice finally breathed out and looked away."Did you just breathe out? Am I that bad that you had to seize your breath when I said I love you?' Joel asked and Beatrice immediately choked."Joel, what are you saying today?Which side of the bed did you wake up on? You already teased me twice and you are getting late for classes." Beatrice said as she was trying to escape from the car."Beatrice Edward!" Joel yelled and Beatrice jolted and looked straight at his face. She could not believe he just yelled her full name aloud.She looked at him dumbfoundedly waiting for the reason why he yelled like that. "Why?" She was forced to ask since he was not talking."I asked you a question, Bea, you won't leave until you answer me" Joel said with a total change in countenance. He was even p
"Do you think you are wrong?" Joel said and adjusted the seat he sat on to his satisfaction."What are you doing here?" Goerge asked as he looked at Joel who was feeling comfortable in his seat and was planning to sleep."To rest!" Joel answered nonchalantly and closed his eyes, Goerge rolled his eyes at the lazy dude and walked to his study."Did you just leave me here, Goerge!" Joel yelled and walked after him to the study.Goerge sat on his seat and opened his laptop. "My business partner in Italy is in town and I haven't really had a chance to meet him right now, so.."Goerge said and Joel laughed and looked at him and saw he was dead serious about what he just said."Not in my next life will I ever imagined hearing you say what you just said, did you just tell me to meet one of your most important client and you are not in the mood"Joel said and Goerge looked up from his laptop. "I use to think you have a sharp ear that Is the best for a spy and since you were a soldier, you wil
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
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
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
"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
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."
"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
