Chapter Seventeen.
"You are really starting to scare me Gabrielle!" Mom yells furiously, walking into my office with her arms crossed and I could tell from her facial expression that she wasn't joking.
"What exactly did I do wrong this time?" I retort rudely and she frowns.
"Mind the way you talk to me young lady." She yells in my face and I almost roll my eyes at how dramatic she was being when I haven't even said anything.
"Whatever mom. May I at least know why the hell you're yelling at me?" I asks impatiently and she unfolds her hands and starts pacing around impatiently.
"You have been playing nice girl with your sister for way too long and I'm starting to get worried. Did you know that bratty sister of yours has been offered back her job at 'AT' and to top it off there are rumors that she and Liam are going out!" She spits out and I frown.
"So what mom? How is that any of my business?" I respond

Liam. "Hey mom, I heard you asked to see me." I greet, taking a sit beside her and I'm quick to notice that she had a very serious look on her face."Yes I did and what I have to say to you is very important son but you may not like what I'm about to tell you." She replies nervously and her tones scares me a little. "You're scaring me mom, what is it?" I ask worriedly, she sighs."As you may have noticed, the fabrics that were used for the upcoming collection cost us a lot including the other expenses and that has taken a toll on us financially..." She says and I chime in. "What's the problem mom? Get to the point." I ask impatiently, noticing that the stress lines on her forehead are more visible and her eyes look tired. "Various shareholders have been complaining about how terrible our financial situation is because they had suggested we use cheaper fabrics for our next collection but you know

Gabriella."Good morning Martin." I chirp happily hoping that today wasn't gonna be like yesterday and the day before cause for reasons best known to him, he'd become distant and snobbish and I didn't like where our friendship was heading."Morning." He replies coldly, throwing his car keys on the kitchen counter."Aren't you going to work?" I asked with raised eyebrows, my heart skipping a beat when I see him with a luggage."Are you m...moving out?" I ask, my eyes already preparing for the waterfall that was going to flood out if he nods positive."No, I'm only going on a business trip and I also took permission to take a few days off to clear my head. I'll only be gone for a week. Take care." He responds dryly but I wasn't having any of that."What exactly is your problem with me Martin? You've been acting like a dick for the last three days. You don't talk to me, you don't eat the food I ma

Gabrielle. "My head hurts." I complain to Layla as soon as she walks into my office."Should I get you some pain killers miss?" She asks."You shouldn't be asking that you fool and while you're at it, get me something to eat as well. I haven't had anything to eat today and I'm starving." I say to her and she nods calmly before attempting to leave and then stopping abruptly."What now?" I ask irritatedly."I'm sorry miss, it's just that I forgot to tell you that a man by the name Martin Deville is here to see you and he says it's important." She informs me and I frown.What exactly does that fool want now?"Let him in." I tell her boredly and she gives a quick bow before walking out.The annoying figure of Gabriella's best friend graces my vision and I immediately had a bad feeling about his visit. Martin isn't the type to just go around paying unnecessary visits to pe

Gabriella.Working at AT without Jake has definitely not being a pleasant experience for me.The new boss Corey, has made it his mission to frustrate me to no end and I'm starting to think Trisha is behind his ridiculous attitude towards me although part of the reasons could be our first encounter but judging by how mean and unfriendly he is, I'm going to assume it's cause of Trisha.Rumor has it that Trisha has successfully seduced him and that she has him wrapped around her fingers. As much as I think it's true, I'm still hoping it's all just a rumor cause I can't imagine surviving Trisha's indirect taunts everyday. It's starting to drain me.Right now, I'm on my way to the office from my lunch break with Martha, who decided to stop by a friend's office before coming back up. I walk into the elevator and the familiar face of Liam puts a smile on my face."Hi." I greet shyly, earning a curious stare from

Gabriella I run into the hospital breathing heavily like someone who just ran a marathon for nine hours straight. My lungs feel ogged and I keep gasping for air as different unpleasant thoughts kept running through my head and I hope and praye what I heard wasn't true or that at least the worst was over now.I run towards the nurse at the reception who raises her brows cautiously as soon as she saw me panting like I was on the verge of dying."How can I help you miss? Do you need some water?" She asks politely, eyeing her colleague who quickly rushes to get me a glass of water."My relative was brought in here about an hour ago and I was informed it's a car accident. I want to see him." I breath out quickly, gulping down the glass of water she handed to me."His name?" She asks and I almost couldn't say it cause it still sounds so crazy and unbelievable."M...Martin Deville." I tell h

Liam "I swear to God, I can't stand mom anymore!" I hiss, angrily barging into Corey's room."Now, tell me why the hell you barged into my room and don't forget to explain to me why should I care about your problems with mom?" He asks in a mock annoyed tone and I huff at his childish behaviour. "I'm not in the mood for your dumb questions Corey. I'm in a bad mood just in case you're too blind to notice and I'm here to vent." I point out in frustration. "I don't think I'm the right person to vent with or throw tantrums with and just in case you don't remember or you're too stupid to realise it, I don't like you. I absolutely detest you and I could care less what goes on in your life." He replies and I chuckle."That is exactly why I'm here to hide out from mom cause I know this is the last place she'd think to look for me." I snap back at him and his facial expression turns sore."So typical

Gabrielle. Something fishy was happening with my mom and I could sense it.Normally, I tried as much as I could to avoid getting involved in mom's business and although I know just how callous she is, I most of the time pretend not to understand her and I play dumb whenever I overhear any of her confidential conversations.After the issue with Martin, mom had assured me that she would most definitely find all means to solve it and I could already imagine how she planned on doing so but as usual, I pretended to be clueless about it. A few days back, I had called Gabriella in order to find out if Martin had told her anything and she actually avoided talking about him but after a lot of persuasion from me, she eventually let the cat out of the bag and told me that he was involved in an accident that almost cost him his life and now, he's in a coma.I would be lying if I said I wasn't relieved to hear t
