WHEN SHE MET HIM. CHAPTER THIRTY SIX.
“Babe '' Nathan called and Audrey jolted back to reality, for like five minutes he had been calling her name but she was lost in the reverie of her own thoughts and didn’t hear him.Audrey was still on the balcony where Louisa left her even though it was more than an hour. Her conscience was pricking her and she didn’t know how to face him. The more she thought about it, the more she felt the pangs of pain in her chest. Nathan was too nice a person for her to lie to him like this.“Are you okay?” He asked with his hand on her shoulder, “I have been calling out to you, what happened?”“I am not Vanessa” Audrey blurted and the man froze, he was contemplating if he heard her well.“What?”“I meant what if I was not Vanessa?” She changed her statement, “your mum called me another name remember?”Her statement made Nathan to burst out laughing, wasn’t she a hilarious one?“Are you kidding me right now?”“What do you mean?” Audrey was not sure what he was driving at.“I know my Nessa okay?”

Audrey twirled for the umpteenth time in front of the mirror as she forced her lips to curl into a smile.The maroon colored dress stood out impeccably on her body and the bright rouge on her lips made her look more alluring. The gown was bare to the shoulder and it had slit cutting up to the thighs making her hourglass figure look more natural and defined. Her hair was pulled back into French pleats and she looked magnificent.Audrey could hardly believe she was the one standing in front of the mirror, this was the first time she has ever dressed like this except for her fake wedding.“You look pretty” Louisa said to her as she placed a hand on her shoulder, “Nathan made the right choice”“Technically, this is for my sister and she would have looked beautiful in this”“This is particularly for you, Audrey. Nathan had this designed a few days after you came here, he didn’t make it for the Nessa that was in his mind but the one who was in front of him”Audrey smiled at the woman and tu

“You like it?” He whispered into her ears again, “is it to your liking?”“Are you kidding me right now, Nathan?” Audrey squealed, “this is like the best gift I have ever received babe, I don’t even know what to do or say. I am so overwhelmed and…”“So you like her more than me?” He teased with a pout, “I thought I was your most favorite person?”“Come of it, Nathan '' she hit him lightly and turned to the yacht again, “this is magnificent '' she muttered under her breath.The beauty of the yacht was too extravagant, the more she looked at it the more she fell in love with it.“Baby” he called from behind her again and Audrey turned her attention to him again, her mouth opened wide in awe. Even if she already knew that Nathan was going to propose to her, seeing him on his knees was just overwhelming for her. Audrey didn’t know how to react to the fact that he was on his knees, this was not how she pictured her life but it was beautiful. Being proposed to on a yacht was not an everyday

His statement made Nathan ball his hand into a fist while his eyes darkened, he could let his father talk down on him but not his Vanessa. Not the woman he wanted to get married to, not the woman who was about to be the mother of his children.This was not how he planned the night for his baby and this was not how he intended for things to happen, he didn’t even invite his father here so why the hell was he here?“Why didn’t anyone tell me about the engagement?” Ethan asked again, “no one told me anything and I am just finding out. Is that even right? I mean I am supposed to know right? This is your big day and I am being treated like a guest?”“What right do you have to talk to Vanessa like that?” He said through gritted teeth.“What?” Audrey pressed down on his hand gently to make him keep quiet but Nathan would hear nothing of it, anyone disrespecting his woman was not allowed near him.“If you are here to cause a scene, I suggest you leave Mr Hernandez”“You….”His wife interrupte

For a while Nathan didn’t say anything as the two of them kept standing and looking at each other. For all the years he knew vanessa, she never introduced anyone to him as her friend or even college school mate and now some Jakes just popped up from nowhere and is calling his fiancée in the night?It didn’t even make sense and he couldn’t help but feel jealous for the fact that another man called his wife to be. “Baby” Audrey walked up to him and held onto his hand, “he is just my college mate and it’s really nothing, he was just calling to check up, it’s been a while”“Sure” he plastered a fake smile across his lips, “we should always be cheerful towards our friends right?” Audrey didn’t notice the sarcasm in his voice.“We should eat, the food it getting cold”Both his father and Audrey helped him to take his seat while the others gathered around, it was a rare occasion for the big boss to gather all of them for dinner together and none of them was taking it for granted.“Before w

The time was already past eight when Audrey slowly opened her eyes and yawned a little, she could still feel the headache throbbing. The pills from the night before didn’t help much but before she could even climb out of bed, memories of what happened earlier became fresh in her mind and she shivered down to her spine. Not only did Nathan call Jakes but he was also asking about the name “Audrey” this was more of a disaster than she thought, how did things become so complicated?She was still in her train of thoughts when the door pushed open and Mrs Hernandez entered with a cup of tea.“I see you are already awake” she walked over to the bed and handed her the cup of tea, “how do you feel?”“This is a disaster” Audrey mumbled, “we are in deep trouble”“What do you mean?” Louisa was not sure what happened, “did something happen?”“Nathan kept asking me who Audrey is and he even called my friend”“Which friend?”The lady sighed for the umpteenth time, she dreaded what Nathan was thinkin

It was already past six when Audrey finally came back from her training and Nathan was waiting for her in the garden while a hotpot was simmering on the table in front of him, by his side Bunny was standing and he was the one looking over the hotpot.The minute she climbed out of the car, her phone beeped with a message and her lips curled into a smile when she saw who it was from.“Let’s have hotpot in the garden”This was a necessity for her and Vanessa, they both loved hotpot even if it was an Asian delicacy. While Audrey preferred veggies to non vegetarian dishes, Vanessa was the direct opposite. She loved her meat but they both enjoyed a well cooked hotpot. It was in the latter days when they became distant from each other that Audrey stopped eating it and now seeing Nathan asking her to eat hotpot with him, a lot of memories came rushing back.“Ma’am” the chauffeur called out to her and Audrey jolted back to reality, “are you okay? You look lost”“Sure” her lips stretched into

Audrey grabbed the chopsticks and helped herself to a good chunk of the vegetable side of the hotpot and ravaged it with relish,“This is so good” she said, “what do you want to know about me Nathan? You claim you know everything right?”“I thought I did” he responded with a shrug, “but it turns out I don’t”“Look babes” Audrey dropped her chopsticks and turned her whole attention to him, “you shouldn’t let trivial things like this stress you out okay? I am still the Vanessa you know and nothing has changed. We only lost our memories and nothing much, you can’t keep thinking about that okay?”“So are you saying I don’t need to know anything about you again?”“Whatever you want me to do, I will do it okay? Just don’t stress about it”“Hmmmm '' Nathan nodded but he didn’t say anything, not like he did not understand what she was trying to say but he was finding it hard. Why was she acting all creepy all of a sudden? He had to know a lot about her but she was not willing to share.“Here”

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
