“Mom, Aunt Kelly. I would like to excuse myself. I have something urgent to do.” Arabella just wanted to leave the suppressing room after eating.
Arabella didn’t want to go out at first but maybe her mom’s right, she needs to breath fresh air from outside but it turned out that the air she wanted badly was very hard to avail inside this room.
“Okay then, will not hold you any longer.” Kelly smiled at her sweetly.
“If that’s the case, I’m going with my daughter Kelly. Thank you for inviting us here. It was nice to see you again Bill.” Jamie quickly stood up and respectfully nodded at them to accompany her daughter out.
“I will let you go this time. But don’t forget to attend Ed’s birthday party next week. Jane please don’t disappoint your Uncle Ed. He’s looking forward to see you. You should come. Okay?” Kelly didn’t want to missed the chance.
Arabella looked at Bill Sky whose eyes were relentlessly sweeping across her coldly.

“Mr. Shihiro was widely known for being a notorious loan shark and owner of the biggest lending institution in Capital Z. It was said that his triumph more likely came from many illegal activities and charging injustice high interest rates to his debtors. He was also the leader of the biggest gang troupe in the city. In one snap of his fingers, debtors who can’t pay the interest will suffer losses of properties and worst their lives. It was said too that known VIPs in our city paid huge amount to him to get protection. Others hired his men for killings and for doing illegal business. People believed that Mr. Shihiro was the man behind the rampant killings and violence around the city. Our police men were remained watchers as high ranker officials were getting huge compensation from Mr. Shihiro.” The old butler of the house spoke in daze while still in fear. Arabella was stunned. ‘Could it be that Mr. Shihiro tried to kill her father?’ she thought after hearing these words fr
“You! You Bitch! How dare you to come here and seduce Jayson! You whore!” Margaret’s eyes were flaming with anger. She accusingly pointed Arabella and was about to attack her inside but Jayson blocked his concrete tall body at the opening that Margaret couldn’t even make a step an inch inside though she’s struggling her way in. “You! Get out from there! You Slut! Come here! I will teach you a lesson that you’ll never forget! Come here! I will ruin your face bitch!” Margaret was more furious as she tried expanding her hands hysterically across Arabella on each side but it was to no avail. Jayson’s body and movement were overly strong and faster than her. “That’s enough!” a big roaring voice of Jayson stunned Margaret. Jayson was screaming directly at her face. Jayson’s face was heavy and scary that in anytime he could choke her to death. Jason’s secretary was stunned when she heard her Boss shouted in anger. She worked there for almost 5 years and she never he
After seeing Arabella’s bewitching face, the crowd startled. The media were excited to get her side of the story. Everyone was looking forward for a good debate. Who would win? “Ms. Arabella, can you tell us your side too?” One reporter curiously asked Arabella. Trishia on the other side was breathing fire as she was used to be the center of attention and in a blink of an eye someone snatched her throne. One more thing, she personally witnessed Arabella in person. Trishia was then threatened by her magnifique beauty. She didn’t want to admit it first when she saw her in the pictures from the paparazzi, she hired in the party that night. Extreme jealousy ate her up when she saw Bill dancing with another woman. Her vicious mind couldn’t let go of Arabella just like that so she masterminded the publication of articles ruining Arabella’s reputation in the public. Trishia knew that Bill disgusted women with bad reputations. With the crowd sympathiz
Arabella got out from the car. It was quiet and dark. She wandered her eyes everywhere hoping she could find a hint of where they are in. She didn’t have a plan to walked along with Bill and to follow his order. It’s a cemetery. They’re in the cemetery. Arabella panicky chased Bill as she was afraid of the night in the cemetery. Bill stopped suddenly. Arabella shoved her face on the solid back of Bill. His scent calmed her down. It’s slowly invading in her nose like a fresh morning breeze that she wanted stay in that position and cuddle. “What are you doing?” Bill turned around and saw her like day dreaming. Arabella instantly blushed. “Nothing.” She gathered her cool to cover the obvious. “Why we are here?” Arabella’s facial expression was a bit of scared. Bill didn’t answer and just continue on walking. The lawn was very spacious. Arabella was staggering with her stiletto as they were walking on a cobblestone pa
“What?” Arabella eyes widened in shocked. Bill’s appearance didn’t show any hint of joking. He had deep seriousness on his face. He was not playing anymore. “Come on Mr. Sky! I never sleep with someone I don’t love. I’m not a prostitute.” Arabella strongly disagreeing. “I know. I heard that before Ms. Arabella Jones.” Bill uttered her name with emphasis. “Okay. Since you knew. There’s no need for me to repeat myself.” This time, Arabella had to surrender on her fight. Her disguise was already busted, she no longer finds any chance to win. “I don’t need a prostitute. I just need you.” Bill frankly said. His eyes looked at her with some sort of sadness in his eyes that she can never tell. Bill walked back towards his car. He didn’t even spare her a glance. He didn’t care if she followed him or not. Arabella ran to chase his big steps. She was afraid to be left there alone. Bill got inside the car and closed it inside.
“What?” Arabella was shocked again. She felt the intense sensation of his words. Adding the position and the place they were in. Her heart pounded insanely fast. “Are you crazy?” Arabella added as she still tried to absorb everything he said. “I think I am.” Bill was really not the type of beating around the bush. He was frank and direct. “No.” Arabella strongly showed her disagreeing by moving her head sideways. “You said you are willing to comply. I can call my secretary now to solve your issues outside if you say yes.” Bill said while smiling at her more like teasing. “No.” For the second time she said. “But your body wanted me.” Bill sexily brushed her lips again to his ears. “Are you seducing me Mr. Sky?” Arabella needed him to be distracted. Bill can actually do everything to her since she is in his bedroom. “I don’t think there’s no need for seducing. You’re blushing and your body was trembling. Your body wanted
The scene was too awkward. “Oh, Hi! Ms. Arabella Jones. We met again.” Trishia greeted Arabella showing off her proudest moment with Bill. Arabella sweetly smiled and nod at Trishia to show her pleasant acknowledgement. She tried to gather her cool and show them that she’s not affected of the scene. Why should she be affected? She never had anything with Bill Sky at all. Farrah was unhappy of Gab’s appearance with another girl but she managed to smile at him even if her intense jealousy wanted to jumped out and smashed them. She then averted her gaze to Arabella who was also looking at her with a pretend smile. They let out a laughter to pretend they were chatting something funny before they came. “We are here.” Mike said together with Enrique. Farrah invited the two to celebrate with them before heading to the restaurant. Mike was familiar with Gab’s presence, he quickly sat on Farrah’s side. Enrique then sat on
Arabella was worried about her best friend Farrah. She wanted to chase them but she was stopped by Mike. Wendy was also dumbfounded. She was surprised that Gab was serious about a girl. She never saw him jealous before. “I think we should go first.” Arabella didn’t want to stay there for any longer. She wanted to find Farrah or at least know where she’s at now. “Oh, come on Arabella. Your friend is safe. You don’t need to worry. The night is still young. Come just drink.” Trishia with bad intention, gave Arabella’s glass to drink. “Thank you but I’m sorry, I’m a bit drunk now. I don’t think I can drink that more.” Arabella smiled tipsily. “Just this one. One last shot before you leave. Please.” Trishia just didn’t want to give up. “Okay. One last shot everyone before we go!” Trishia announced as she needed to succeed on her plan tonight. Bill Sky stood up and raised his glass in the air. Arabella also gave her toast and
“Bi… Bill?” She frowned deeply as she hissed apologetically.How she missed identifying him?Now she realized his kiss was the kiss she ever wanted.The best kiss she ever tasted.She felt the intense familiarity but of course, due to her situation, she had no time to dwell on the feeling, or else she would fall into its spell and would cause her to be caught by her abductor.Bill’s face was red due to the slap she gave.He looked at her unreadably.Arabella felt nervous about his stare at her.“Aren’t you tired of running away from me?” Bill suddenly asked in a strict tone.Judging from his stern expression, Arabella was sure that she was the only human who had hit him.Now, he was angry and maybe felt humiliated.His seriousness was bringing a subtle dark vibe into the area.This signaled Bill's men to get rid of the people around.This left them alone.“Oh… I’m sorry… I thought… oh, I just…” Arabella didn’t know what to say.Clearly, she misunderstood the intention of his men becau
The next morning, Arabella woke in a strange room again.Compared to the present condition, she felt her body was gaining back her strength.She seemed to already recover her energy and for her, it was a good thing.She heaved a sigh of relief.Her breathing was fine now but she wasn’t sure if she was still alive.The immense darkness was gone just like that.Her eyes moved trying to figure out something.Then she suddenly lifted her hand to touch her face.She needed to feel the pain to know she was still living.When she saw her arm, her eyes widened.It was the only time she noticed that she had a drip again.Arabella halted in fear as her eyes stared at the needle in her hand.She was quickly taken aback as her memory brought her back to the time when she was held kidnapped by Damien.Her memory in Damien’s room immediately flashed across her mind.She wracked her brain trying to remember everything at that time.She knew there was something she needed to remember.Something impor
"Bill..." Sounding like a ghost, Arabella's voice was so cold. "Bill...my love. Help me... Help me, please..." Arabella felt trapped in the unending darkness. She could not move nor cry. Not even her tears were moving. They were stuck inside her eyes. Her body was very light but numb like it could float in the air. She could not hear herself breathing nor feel her heartbeat.'Am I dead?'She had thought trying to figure out where she was in. The darkness was consistent. It had no plan to allow some light to enter like it was very oppressive. "Bill...help!" Struggling to make her voice come out, she spoke again even if she knew that it was too impossible that one could hear her. It was like Bill was the only person who could get her out of the darkness. Arabella was waiting...She was patiently waiting for him…Even if there was no hope that he would come...still, she was hoping for him to save her.Meanwhile, the commotion in the airport went out of control when Damien got a
“Bill, where are you going?!” Kelly asked angrily and in panic seeing her son was going out somewhere with his terrible condition. George, his great assistant was putting him a coat.Bill didn’t say a word. He seemed not to want to talk to his mother or his mind was just so preoccupied with something that he missed hearing her or even noticing her presence.Either way, clearly, Bill was not in the mood.After getting a call from Lira, he quickly sat up and took off his hospital gown. “Bill, son! Your doctors were still not letting you go out with your condition. You are still not well for God’s sake! Can you listen to me please for once?!” Kelly was worried about him. Her heart was thumping like a drum. She could not just let him do whatever he wanted as his condition was not yet to be called stable. “Let’s go, George.” Bill didn’t answer her instead he walked through the open door with George behind.“Bill! Stop!” Kelly shouted angrily. Her eyes were in rage like she would not
On day 10 at the hospital, Bill got a call from an unknown caller. “Sir,” George, his right hand handed his phone to him. Bill just looked at him then his eyes landed on his phone. His eyes were soulless like a hawk that was too sharp and dangerous.It was only George who could talk to him not even his mother, Kelly, or his secretaries.No one wanted to be with him right now even his doctors. Just meeting Bill's dangerous eyes, they already wanted to run away or avoid him as he already fired 10 doctors in just one day and another 5 doctors the other day. He seemed to build strong invisible walls around him that nobody wanted to enter or they would greatly suffer.They say the real Bill Sky was back. The literal Bill Sky who was known for his merciless behavior and impatient demeanor. Looking at the phone, he just smirked without planning to receive it from George then his unfathomable eyes closed. “Arabella, where is she? Where is she, Mom?” On day 3 after he got shot, she wo
Arabella looked at the woman in shock. Her eyes were questioning her but the woman could not look her in the eye. She obviously felt uneasy with Arabella. “Ma'am, you… I know you. You are Damien’s mom, right?” Arabella asked quickly hoping she could get any help from the woman. Woman to woman, Arabella wanted to believe that she had a heart if she would know what Damien did to her. “Please help me, ma’am. Your son…” Without wasting any time, Arabella continued. “No…” The woman cut her abruptly. Finally, she faced Arabella with discomfort in her expression.Arabella could feel the woman was struggling to look her in the eyes but even though she did. “I am not his mother. He is not my son.” The woman dropped the bomb with a firm stance. She seemed to know what Arabella wanted from her. Hearing the woman’s words, Arabella halted. The glimpse of hope in her heart suddenly shattered.“I am just a paid actress miss. I do this for a living.” The woman said directly without backing
Arabella felt her body was cold and trembling tremendously. The surrounding was quiet but her mind was screaming for freedom.Her longingness to see her son and husband was invincible.She could not believe she did reach the ground successfully as she thought of giving up in the middle. She could still feel her nerves were shaking but now that she felt the ground with her bare feet, she felt quite a relief. Now, all she needed to do was to run far away from the place. Along with the chilly wind outside and the rough stony ground, Arabella was full of hope that she could see her son and her husband again but to her shock, someone seemed to wait for her on the ground. He waited for her to come.He made a trap and she fell for it.In the dark, Damien was standing smoking a cigarette. The heavy smoke coming from him blended with the chilly air giving Arabella a creepy side of him. She was not expecting to see him there as she thought Damien was already asleep at this time but she w
Trishia stood out from a wheelchair. The only woman who was in a wheelchair among the guests was none other than Damien’s mother. Due to her infection, her face was covered in half with a thin brown flowery-designed fabric. Loose full brown gown not too catchy and easily blended with the crowd. Arabella clearly saw what she saw. Damien was with that woman whoever she was.Not to be embarrassed by her condition, Arabella personally informed the head of security about the additional guest.It seemed that, she made a huge mistake.A terrible mistake. It was clear to her now that the woman in a wheelchair was Trishia all along and not Damien's mom.Damien tricked her but why?It was her biggest question to her old long friend.Why he had to break her trust in him?What happened to Damien?His reason was so blurry but it was so clear that he connived with Trishia's evil plan.They deceived her by using Damien's mom as a ploy.She didn't even know if that woman was his real mom or jus
“Mommy, wake up!” The sweet little voice in her head made her open her eyes. Then she saw her little boy Adam smiling at her so sweetly. His lovely smile instantly lightened up her day. She smiled back at him and then suddenly kissed his forehead. Then, she kissed his nose tip and for a while, she touched it with her nose tip hitting his little nose side to side repeatedly.Adam chuckled happily then finally she kissed his chubby cheeks and tickled him non-stopped. Their laughter echoed around like they were the happiest mother and son.She was so happy being with her son and her heart was full. “Did I miss something?” Suddenly, another charming voice was approaching. The mother and son suddenly stopped and looked at the handsome owner of the voice. “Daddy!!!” Adam jumped out from her and ran toward the man excitedly. Arabella smiled at them. Seeing the two together was her happiest. Bill winked and her cutely then he smiled. Until now, Bill was giving her butterflies in th
