WHEN SHE MET HIM. CHAPTER EIGHTY THREE.
The car drove into the parking lot and Audrey tried to steady her breathing before climbing out, there was a sea of reporters in front of her and her anxiety was already acting up. The fact that neither Vanessa or even Nathan was here with her was absurd and even the prosecutor in charge of the case was already in the courtroom.Now she was about to climb out of the car fully dressed like Vanessa with little or no difference. Nathan was making a mockery of her and he was making it real good.“I can come with you to the courtroom ma’am” Bunny suggested when he saw the reporters, “these people are vicious”“Don’t worry Bunny” she flashed him a smile even when her insides were churning in fear, “Bruno will be here soon and I will go in”“Very well then, I will wait until he get here”Her phone suddenly beeped with a message and she heaved another sigh before picking up her bag.“You should tell him to meet me inside when he is here, i have to go in now”And without waiting for his respons

“Hey baby” Vanessa kissed him gently on the forehead before perching on the space beside him, “what’s going on? You look so stressed”“I am on a business call babe” he whispered.“Okay” Vanessa rolled her eyes and picked up her phone.The internet was in a frenzy due to the court case and she immediately began to watch the live broadcast.It was a fierce competition and she could see Audrey sitting beside the lawyer and fear was written all over her face, this was not a big deal. Audrey had always been scared of the crowd.“Hey baby” Nathan finally turned his attention to her, “what were you saying?”“Are you done with your business call?” Her voice was filled with sarcasm.“Are you going to be like that? I was busy, okay?”“Okay?” She rolled her eyes again and focused her attention on the phone again,” answering my greeting when you are on a business call is not a big deal but you don’t see that”“What’s actually wrong with you babes? Why do you sound mad?”Since the first day they be

The whole court went silent as the defense attorney asked the question, now Audrey was not expecting this and it was not mentioned in the document that Nathan gave her.“Objection my lord” the prosecutor immediately stood up, “the defense is trying to put words in her mouth”“I am only asking a question here my lord” the defense immediately chipped in, “I want the court to be sure that we are dealing with the same person here. She ran away the night before her wedding and the wedding still took place on the said day. Why don’t you tell the court what exactly happened?”“Hmmm” Audrey cleared her throat as her eyes continued to linger on Bruno who mouthed to her to be calm.“We are waiting for you, miss' ' the defense knew she had nothing to say and his lips were already curled into a smile, he was on the verge of winning.“Of course” Audrey began to say, “I actually ran away on the night before my wedding and the said wedding took place the next day. I had my twin sister stand in for me

Audrey slowly opened her eyes and was surprised to see herself in the hospital and she let out a soft groan before pushing herself to a sitting position.The last thing she remembered was when Jack shot at her shoulder and she lost consciousness but here she was.Her train of thought was interrupted when the door pushed open and Bruno sauntered into the room looking all worried but his face immediately lit up when he saw her.“You are awake” he was genuinely happy, “I was so worried about you”“How long have I been here?”“This is the third day ma’am, you were stressed out a lot and slipped into a temporary coma”“Uhhh” Audrey groaned a little again as her eyes continued to look around for a certain someone.“The boss is not here” Bruno said after a while.“I am guessing he didn’t come at all”“Not to be a bad news breaker but he said he doesn’t care if you live or die, I think you shouldn’t think about him anymore and just try to take some restHe was still talking when the door open

“Here” Bruno dropped the document on her leg, “you can read It if you so badly want to read it”A look of confusion flashed across her face when she saw how expressionless his face was,“Are you angry right now?” Audrey asked,“Can’t you speak up for yourself?” Bruno inquired and the frown on her face intensified.“I beg your pardon?” Her eyes squinted in confusion.“I am obviously older than you so you have to listen to me, why are you allowing them to treat you like this? Your sister and your dad? Why?”“What will you have me do?” She inquired, “Do you want me to fight and yell about how I want them to treat me right?”“You are not supposed to allow them treat you like that Audrey, it is demeaning”“What about what your boss is doing to me?” Tears welled up in her eyes, “I only did what I did because I wanted to help him but what did I get in return? I was shot and he didn’t even bother to ask how I was and now he wants me to go for a press conference because he wants me to clear Van

Audrey didn’t know for how long she was In Bruno’s arms but she knew she had cried a lot. Her headache had already intensified and she could feel the pain in her lower abdomen. This was due to a lot of stress or so she thought but a lot had been on her mind for days now and she just didn’t know how to share it.Her sobs were already getting better and she was no longer shaky which was a bit of a relief for Bruno as she disengaged from him. Her eyes were swollen and she looked so sad, he had never seen anyone that sad ever.“Are you okay?” This was the only thing he could ask at the moment.“Isn’t death better than leaving with such ridicule?” Audrey asked in a scared voice, “even the people that i don’t know now hates me for a crime I never committed”“Calm down okay? I will think of a way to fix this i promise”“I…” the words hung in her throat when her mobile began to ring and when she saw the caller ID, a look of fear flashed across her face and she didn’t even know when she clung i

“Are you being serious right now babe?” Vanessa fumed, “ why will I allow her to come near you?”“It is for my medication Nessa, it’s not a big deal”“Are you also falling in love with her?” She blurted and an angry lion flashed across his face. Letting Audrey take care of him was one thing but falling in love with her? That was never going to happen.“Maybe when you can get my medications right, we will talk about this” Vanessa angrily walked out of the room, she knew Nathan was not one to ever go back on his words.After a while, a knock on the door made Nathan turn his head towards the noise and a familiar cologne filtered through his nose.“Mum?”“How are you feeling now, baby?” Mrs Hernandez asked as she perched on the space beside him, “I am sorry for what you had to endure a while ago”“I am better now” he answered in his dominating voice, “why are you here by the way?”“I just wanted to check up on you, is that bad?”“I am not dying mum” he rolled his eyes, “what is it?”“Ever

“This is my verdict” the judge used the gavel on the table and everyone stood up except Jack who had an extremely angry look on his face.He has been sentenced to ten years in prison with a fine of fifty million dollars to the affected people and this was a bigger punishment for him.His father had to remove his hand from the case and Jack was left all alone to his fate.The fact that he even shot Audrey was added to his list of crimes and he was being punished for that.As he was being led away, he couldn’t help but glare at Audrey and the smirk on his lips showed he had something planned.“Even on his way to jail, he still looks like he wants to kill me” she managed to say to Bruno.“He will not be able to harm you again, Audrey. He is a lost cause now”“I see” she nodded but didn’t say anything again as her mind drifted to what happened a day ago.***Flashback..Audrey was passing by Nathan’s room to go down the stairs when the conversation he was having with his mother filtered th

The door to his office pushed open and she gently sauntered into the room. Xavier, who was busy with a document, immediately turned his attention to her and stood up. He didn’t flash her any smile as usual but part of him was happy to have her back.“Hey, you”“Aren’t you excited to see me?” Bianca asked him, her face also expressionless.“You are finally here” Xavier forced himself to say, “i actually thought you might not come back but here you are”“Are you upset?” Bianca couldn’t help but ask him as he came face to face with her, “why…“Why?” Xavier flared up while raking his hand through his hair, “how can you casually walk into my office and ask if I am upset B? Of course I am” he paused for a moment, his eyes not leaving hers for even a second,“ I am upset and it's all your fault. How could you just discard me after being with Nathan? Do I mean nothing to you at all?“I said we were going to talk about it when I get back, right?” She inquired, “and I am sorry okay? I was just v

Audrey was all set and ready to leave, she was just giving the finishing touches to her hair when her door pushed open and her aunt sauntered into the room with a smile on her face.“I can see you are all ready to leave?” She asked Bianca while lowering herself on the bed.“Yes aunt” she replied, “fashion week starts next week, I have to put the finishing touches to things”“Well” aunt Aurora shrugged, “your flight leaves in an hour, I was hoping you could spare me a few minutes. I want to discuss something with you, child”A small frown appeared on Bianca’s forehead, now she was wondering what her aunt wanted to talk about.“Of course aunt” she walked over to the bed and gently perched on it, “I am all ears”Aunt Aurora heaved a sigh before turning her full attention to Bianca, a look of pain and sadness looming in her eyes.“My dear” she began almost immediately, “don’t you think it is high time you forgive Nathan for what he did to you?”The frown on Bianca’s face intensified and s

The moment Nathan’s car came to a halt in front of the building, he immediately unbuttoned his suit before making his way towards the reception.This was one of the biggest hotels in New York and he was wondering why his blackmailer asked him to be here. Wasn’t this too exquisite?“Hello sir” the receptionist flashed him a smile, “welcome to sugar”“I am here to see Mr Stefan,” he answered.“One second” the lady muttered and began to type away on her system. After a few seconds, she looked up at him again with a smile on her lips.“Yes, he is expecting you. He is by the poolside”With one last nod, he made his way towards the pool and only one man was seated under a nice shade. Nathan knew he was the caller and didn’t waste time in walking toward him but he was immediately stopped by his guards, a gesture that made his forehead crease into a frown.“Let him go,” Stefan said from where he was seated.Rolling his eyes, the big boss walked up to him and he didn’t even bother to hide the

Dressed in a pair of blue tailored suit, Nathan pulled his hair into a neat bun before making his way out of the room. It was a weekend and everyone was at home, including audrey. It was already an hour to his flight, he didn’t want to miss it. As much as he wanted to stay with Paige, he knew Esperanza also needed him.So with that at the back of his head, he heaved a sigh before walking up to Paige who looked like she was about to cry.“Are you really leaving?” Even if she was just a child, Paige had come to love Nathan more than anything in the world. She was not aware of her relationship with him yet but despite that, she loved him more than the world,“I thought you said you wanted to stay with me”Nathan gently cupped her tiny hands in his own hands and pressed a kiss on her forehead, he felt like a groom leaving his wife behind at the wedding alter,“I have to leave, princess” he said after a while, “something urgent came up and I have to go okay?”“But can I come with you?” Tea

It was already past eight in the night when a soft knock resonated on the door of the room and Bianca gently opened her eyes before making her way to the door and when she saw who it was, her countenance changed. What the heck was he doing so late at night? Wasn’t he tired? Her head was throbbing and she just wanted to go back to bed.“Why are you here, Nathan?” She asked him from the door, not bothering to even invite him into the room, “it is already so late and you are here?”“Can we talk?” The big boss questioned, his voice bland and without any emotions, “I can not sleep and I think we should talk”Bianca rolled her eyes to the back of her head and glanced into the room. Her daughter was sleeping peacefully on the bed and she didn’t want to wake her up.“What exactly do you want to talk about Nathan?” She akdes again, “we have been talking without any new words, I am really not In the mood to talk to you”“We can either talk here in our daughter’s presence or away from her hearin

Xavier gulped at her question and he raked his hand through his hair. He was definitely not expecting what she had just said.He raked his hand through his hair as he stood up from his reclining chair and walked up to the large window that served as a wall in his office.“What are you saying, Bianca?” He was completely lost for words.“You like me, don’t you?” She asked from the other end, “I think we should get married, what do you think?“Why are you suddenly saying all this, B?” He couldn’t help but ask, “did Nathan do something? Are you okay? Should I come over?” She heaved a sigh from the other end and he realized she was just stressed out. His heart broke for a split second, he actually thought she meant it but she wanted to use him to get away from Nathan again. The mere thought of him annoyed me to the core of my being.“You know what?” Bianca began to talk again, “it was a mistake” not bothering to wait for his response, she ended the call while Xavier balled his hand into a

Dressed in a pair of black flay pants and a crisp white shirt neatly tucked into her pants, Louisa made her way into the vip room and she was not surprised to see him standing near the window looking as dashing as always.This was the first man she ever fell in love with and even if she knew that nothing was ever going to happen between them again, she was quite aware that Stefan was always ready to do anything for her. Anything at all.With that at the back of her head, she pressed towards him with an expressionless look hovering over her face.When Stefan heard her walk into the room, he immediately turned to her and for a moment he was tongue tied. This was the woman he had not seen face to face for years and she still looked stunning, how he wished.“I thought you were not going to come” he said while taking slow steps towards her“And here I am”Louisa answered, “we should get straight to business”After talking, she slowly lowered herself on the chair in the room while crossing o

A tall looking man was seated on a reclining chair, a cigarette protruding from his mouth while a glass of whiskey is seated beside him.He is well built with his muscles peeking out of his crisp white shirt while his bare chest had a lot of visible tattoos.His door pushed open and another man sauntered into the room before bowing lightly.“Boss” he greeted, “you sent for me”“I have a job for you, Augusto” he turned his attention to the man who had just entered the room.“I am at your service boss” Augusto answered, “just give the order”“Louisa called,” the man announced again and Augusto's forehead creased into a slight frown when he heard the name. This was a name he had not heard for years and suddenly she was back into their lives? How was that even possible! How did she even get Stefan’s number again?“You are surprised right?” Stefan inquired, “I can see the look on your face” he puffed smoke out of his mouth again.“I have not heard her name for years now boss” Augusto respo

It was already past seven in the evening when Nathan made his way downstairs from his daughter’s room. After having an argument with Bianca, he decided to book a hotel for the night and moreover he didn’t want to stay in a house full of women.“Where are you going?” Aunt Aurora, who was seated in the living room, asked him, “I cleaned up the guest room for you,” she added.“Thank you aunty but I have already booked a hotel, I will come back tomorrow to check on her”“Did you tell Bianca you were leaving?”He shrugged as a painful smile appeared on his face,“She wouldn’t care, thank you so much for taking care of my daughter. I really appreciate”“I am doing it for my niece and not you, Nathan” she told him and he nodded at her.“I will take my leave now”Aunt Aurora didn’t bother to stop him, she knew he was going through a lot too. It was not easy for him just as it was not easy for Bianca.“Wait” a voice called out to him and he halted, Bianca was coming down from the stairs and s
