Eva opened the car door, got in and slammed it back as it made a loud noise in the process.
"So much for giving you fifteen minutes." Bella said, ignoring what she had just done as she glared at her.
"Why did you call me here?" Eva asked ignoring her statement and Bella rolled her eyes.
"Whatever it is, must be good." She said again.
"Must you always prove that you're a bitch?" Bella asked with a little frown.
"Go straight to the point Bella." Eva said exasperated as she glared harshly at her.
Bella took in a deep breath with a closed eyes as she prepared herself for what she was about to say.
"Anyways, I called you here for a very good reason and that is to settle the differences between us." Bella explained but Eva remained silent.
"I want us to be friends." She blurted out.
"Are you drunk
Fred dropped the phone and sighed. He put the phone back in his trouser pocket and opened the door, heading downstairs. He met his father in the sitting room looking so unhappy and he guessed he has already heard."What's this news I'm hearing?""And what is that?" Fred said as he feigned a puzzled look."You mean you don't know the company has lost over $100, 000, 000?!" His Dad said furiously and Fred bowed his head."The investors are all threatening to back off from the project if it is not been handled urgently!" He continued to rant out in anger."Dad, I would try to fix this in all possible ways that I can." Fred assured in a sigh."Oh! So, you knew about it yet, you acted like you knew nothing?" His Dad said glaring hard at him as he reduced his tone but it was only for a while."Huh? Answer me!" He fired at him.&nbs
A motorcycle has been secretly following Lillian's car. He saw what the guard did and became slightly confused when the car was still moving.Shouldn't she stop the car? Or does she know her way around?He heard a short scream from the car and concluded there was trouble. Immediately, he brought out a chip and threw it to the body of the car. He brought out his phone and typed on the few bottons, stopping the car shortly.He stopped his motorcycle as he alighted and walked to the car. There, he met an unconscious Lillian. He removed the chip and got into the driver's seat. He ignited the engine, revising carefully before turning back and then he drove out of the place, leaving his motorcycle behind.*****************"When will you be going to inspect the incoming goods?" Don asked as he poured in vodka to his cup."Is it the one in Italy?" Bella asked unsure, checking out her fingers."Yeah. You have to check and carefully prepare it before it comes down to Los Angeles." Don said imb
Lillian opened her eyes slowly and it met with a familiar ceiling. She took her hand to her face and managed to sit up, groaning in the process. She looked around and confirmed she was back in her room. "How did I get back here?" She muttered slightly rubbing her head.She remembered she had almost fallen off the cliff with the car. She looked around her body to check for any form of injury or bandage wrapped around her but there was none."How did it happen?" She thought within herself. Bella entered with a tray in her hands and came towards the bed."You're awake." She announced walking towards the bed."How did I get back here? Did anything happen to me?" Lillian asked the questions in her mind with a puzzled look."As you can see, nothing happened to you." Bella shrugged as she dropped the tray on the bed in front of Lillian and sat down."But, I had almost fallen off the cliff with the car, so how come I didn't get any injury at all?" Lillian asked still perplexed at the whole t
"Move the gear selector into its first gear." Bella ordered and Lillian did as instructed."Now, start driving with your foot still fully on the clutch pedal." Bella instructed again and she obeyed. She drove the car a little and stopped out of nervousness."You can do it, Lillian. Just do it again." Bella encouraged and she drove it again before stopping."Now, move it a little longer." Bella said and Lillian looked at her with anxiousness. Bella gave her a reassuring smile as she gave her a go ahead nod. She drove it from where they were to the gate which was a few meters away before she stopped the car.m again."You're doing it girl, few more times and you're good to go." Bella said loudly in smiles and Lillian giggled.Rex came out of the house and walked towards them in the car."Your brother wants to see you right now." He said in a slight bow and the ladies turned their attention to him."Okay." Bella replied in a little nod."Ummm Lillian, let's take a break here. We would co
"Lillian, this is Drake, the one who saved your life." Bella introduced pointing at Drake who just stood at the balcony with them while they sat down. "Really?" Lillian's face lit up and she dropped her glass cup of juice on the small table. "Yeah." Bella replied in a nod. "Hi Drake! I heard what you did for me and I'm so grateful to you." Lillian stated as she demonstrated her hands. "It was nothing, after all it's my duty." Drake replied with a slight bow. "It actually meant something to me." Lillian said in a smile ignoring the last part of his statement even though she wanted to ask about it. "Alright. Now you know him, I would also love to tell you that he would be your new coach for the driving lessons." Bella said to Lillian who was now staring at her and Lillian turned back to Drake. "Is he?" She asked to be sure. "Yeah. Trust me, he is very good at these things, and he would continue from where I stopped." Bella explained sipping her juice. "Okay." Lillian replied in
"Repeat the same thing." Drake ordered and Lillian did as instructed. She moved the gear to its first gear and drove the car backwards making a U- turn before she finally stopped the engine."Yay!" Lillian screamed happily throwing her hands in the air and Drake covered his two ears with his hands."I finally know how to drive!" She screamed again as she happily hugged Drake."Oops sorry." She said again withdrawing almost immediately."It's alright." He said in a small smile."So, where should we go from here?""We'll go back to the mansion." Drake shrugged."Alright, I will drive us back." Lillian said in a smile and ignited the engine. Though, the drive back home was just five minutes which was not that far, she was still smiling like she achieved something great of which it was to her.She horned and the gate opened. She drove in and parked just few meters away from the entrance of the house."That's all for today, we'll continue tomorrow." Drake said in a small smile."Okay." Lil
TWO WEEKS LATER*"How many years does it take you to inspect those things Bella?" Don said glancing at the phone placed at the phone stand as he successfully made a U- turn."Years? I've just spent weeks here and it isn't up to a month yet." Bella defended from the other side of the phone."So, you plan to stay for a month?" Don asked in a scoff."I didn't say that." Bella sang out and he scoffed again."When are you coming back?" He asked as he glanced at the phone."And don't you dare hang up." Don said again trying to avoid what happened the last time he called her and Bella's laughter was heard from the other side."I don't know but, I'll see what I can do about that." She replied and Don scoffed."You don't plan to come back anytime soon, do you?" He said glaring at the phone like it was Bella."Maybe, ain't sure yet." Bella replied."You're just so unpredictable." Don said now focusing back on the road."Thank God you know that." Bella sang out again and Don scoffed."Will you j
Lillian took slow strides as she walked towards Don's room. She paused in her steps when she was almost at the door, contemplating if it was alright to go and check up on him at the moment. She didn't know if the doctor was done with him yet but there was only one way to find out. She sighed as she resumed her steps againShe had gone with them in taking him to his room earlier and stayed with him but when the doctor arrived, he asked all of them out, even when she insisted on staying back as his wife. She decided to go back to her room while waiting patiently to hear reports but then it's been twenty minutes and she hasn't heard any yet.She got to where the guards were standing at the entrance and took in a deep breath."Please, can I see him now?" She asked staring from one of them to the other.The guards looked at each other then back at her. "Wait here." Rex said and went into the room. He came out shortly and gave way for her to pass. She went in and met the doctor already pa
