Chapter 1

The night was extremely cold, it poured heavily... It felt like the sky was crying with her. She stood lifelessly on the streets, tears rolled down, and tears flowed down her eyes. Drips of tears washed by the rain, she whimpered silently. How? How could he? She finally moved, she cleaned the tears from her eyes, and she tried to move her legs but it felt like it was glued to the soil. Mirabel slumped to the ground, her clothes all soaked and wet, she looked up at the sky with her eyes closed, and everything that happened started flooding into her thoughts.**** Earlier this morning~~ She left her apartment in a jolly mood today, she was all smiles when she left for her boyfriend's house.

"What the..." Stephen said in shock, it felt like a cat got his tongue, he couldn't even find the right words to complete his statement. "Who the h*ll is she? And what is she doing on your bed??" Stephen finally asked. To say he was surprised was an understatement. "Check her," Axel said not answering Stephen's question. Axel walked to the couch and sat on it looking at the lady on the bed. Stephen finally came out of his shocked state and walked to the bed where she was laying. He checked her temperature, he suddenly frowned, his eyebrows creased and he looked at Axel. "Why is her body so hot?" He asked, her body was so hot, and her temperature wasn't normal. "Found her under the rain," Axel said. When he said so, Stephen felt like he was going to go crazy just by trying to match pieces together, his thoughts were spinning. "What??" He shouted which caused a glare from Axel. "You don't even know her? You haven't met her before?" Stephen said with a bewildered gaze. "Axel, are

Mirabel dropped her number and email address with the Chauffeur when he dropped her off just as she was ordered to, and as she had promised. She would pay back when next they cross paths.She walked into her apartment, immediately she entered, she went into her room and jumped on the bed. She lay on her bed and memories of every single thing that happened came flooding in. No matter how hard she tried, she still couldn't pinpoint the reason Steve broke up with her. A tear dropped from her eyes as she cherished the times she spent with him, either way, nothing could be done anymore, he asked for it and she was going to make him regret leaving her. Mirabel stood up from her bed and walked to the bathroom, but then she suddenly realized something which made her stop in her steps. How could she not have realized earlier, these weren't her clothes!! She was wearing pajamas that were not hers, how could she not have realized earlier? Mirabel used her hands to slap her head slightly, '

"After the incident with Steve..." Mirabel explained to Arabella, how she walked down the streets under the heavy rain and ended up losing consciousness. "Do you want to kill yourself for a guy" Arabella shouted at her, "Do you want to end up dying cause of cold" she continued scolding her, it was obvious that she was beyond angry right now. Mirabel looked at her, she couldn't do or say anything, she realized she was wrong, she shouldn't have tried that no matter how broken she was. "You can scold me later on but please let me finish my story," Mirabel said and Arabella finally calmed down. Mirabel continued from how she woke up and found herself in someone's house, and also everything that transpired with her and the man, she didn't forget to mention the part where she foolishly promised to pay back by telling him she owes him. Arabella held her head, she could feel a headache coming in, everything was so complicated, Oh God. "So... What are you going to do now?" Arabella asked,

Steve went home straight from the restaurant, he was beyond devastated, he regretted every single thing, he really should have been careful. In a dimly lit room, slight sobs could be heard resounding through all the corners. The strong scent of alcohol traveled across the room. He sat down looking broken on the floor, he regretted everything, and he wished he could turn back time. "Mira, I love..." He didn't complete his sentence before he suddenly stopped "What the h*ll have I done??" He sat down looking devastated and shattered, he was growing insane, regretting what happened, everything that happened... The young man sat down on the floor and tried to remember how it all started. **** Two months earlier~~ He was meant to sign a business deal with a company but to his surprise, his secretary informed him they were signing the business deal in a private room at a night bar.

On a bright Monday morning in a luxurious office room, painted with dark and gray colors, books are neatly arranged on shelves. The office was quiet, you could only hear the clicking of the keyboard but it suddenly went silent. He sat there with an aura of superiority hovering over him. Axel brought out a file and opened it, his facial expression changed when he saw the contents of the file. He brought out his phone and dialed a number. Knock knock~~ There was a knock on the door. "Come in," Axel said. A young-looking man walked in panting, Marcel ran to the office immediately after he saw the call. "Sir," he said, Axel didn't raise his head from the file when Marcel came in, but then he suddenly looked up. Marcel was Axel's assistant. Marcel's breath hitched when Axel looked at him, although this wasn't the first time, he could never get used to his boss's glare.

Chapter 7

Mirabel's POV I woke up in the middle of an unfamiliar room, lying on the cold floor. I sat up and looked around nervously, I looked around but couldn't find a single soul with me. I stayed in the same uncomfortable position for some time, looking around the strange room in a panic I didn't know what to do. I tried to move but realized that my hands and feet were tied. Thoughts of what happened came rushing in, I remembered her nose being covered with a cloth from behind. Mirabel looked around once again, 'Where am I?' Her thoughts were interrupted when the door was suddenly opened, a man walked in with two other men trailing behind him. Mirabel couldn't see their faces clearly, but she knew they were no good guys, she tried to think hard if she wronged anyone recently, but no, she didn't, then why was she kidnapped? The first man came close to her and squatted in front of her. "Tsk... You are a beautiful lady, indeed" the first man said. "Who are you? Please let me go" Mirabel

John walked into the last cell, where Matt was kept. Immediately he entered, Matt rose his head and stared at him. "Matt," John said walking into the cell with a smile. "Account number 1******7, account name Matt Cliff," Matt stated the account number that received the money, he didn't need to wait for a moment, he knew that's why he was there. John gazed deeply at Matt "I wasn't expecting you to tell me immediately I came in" John said. "I'm sure that's why you came, why should I wait for a while when I'll eventually be forced to say it," Matt said and breathed out. "Good good, good one," John said and paused "It's good to be wise," he said finishing his statement. John turned, he didn't need to spend much time here, so he turned around and left the room.
