The day ran out fast, and soon it was time to call off for work, Mirabel walked out of the company after informing her manager that she was leaving. With her bag on her shoulders, Mirabel made her way to the car which was parked by the end of the road. "Mirabel" someone called out to her and hearing the familiar voice made her stop on her steps. She turned around, and just like she assumed, she saw him, it was Steve. It's been a long time since she heard of him, she thought. "Steve? What are you doing..." Before she could complete her statement, he pulled her close to him and hugged her, his action made Mirabel unbelievably stand stiff before she came back to her senses and pushed him off, not too hard. "What are you doing here?!" she questioned. "I came to see you," Steve said, he didn't look better than the last time they met, rather he looked worse, with his hair disheveled and his face pale and dry. "Why? I don't remember us having a reason to meet each other" Mirabel said, sh

He came down from the car and picked up his box from the Dikki of the range rover before he closed it and walked to his condo, he inserted the key to the door before opening it and walking in. He spent the next two hours arranging the place and setting his things in, and by 4 PM he was already through, by the time he finished, he had his shower. He walked out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist, a sight to behold! With his left hand on his waist and his right hand which he used in wiping the water from his hair with a towel, he looked around the room again to see if anything was missing. The bedroom was moderately wide with a bed in the middle, a study table and chair by the side, a

Mirabel finally arrived back at the mansion as Enoch drove into the vicinity, when the car stopped, she didn't wait for Enoch to come down and open the door for her. Mirabel opened the car door and came down before heading into the mansion with her bag and with hopes of seeing that Axel had returned. Mirabel's wish didn't come to pass, rather than seeing Axel back at home, she saw his father in the living room seated, the sight came as a surprise to her but she still went in to greet him. Vince heard footsteps and he rose from the chair, his gaze wasn't holding anything friendly "Good evening, Father" she greeted him. The time was already after six. "Who is your father? and who gave you the right to refer me with that?" he inquired with an almost thundering voice that had Mirabel shiver unexpectedly. She rose her head up in speechlessness, she didn't know if his question needed an answer or not "Umm, I'm sorry" she apologized. "I am not here to waste my time on you, just pack your

Stephen arrived at Arlan a few hours later, he drove to the address which John had sent to him in a rush. The place was on the outskirts of the city, his car drove into the vicinity of the address, Stephen parked his car and came down with a box in his hands which he had taken with him. The house didn't have a luxurious look to it, it was just a simply built bungalow, Stephen walked to the door of the place and gave it a knock as it was locked. He waited for a few minutes before the door was opened from the inside. The door was opened by Lucas in particular. He had a bandage wrapped around his left hand. "Lucas? Are you okay??" Stephen called out and asked as his gaze traveled to Lucas who appeared to have been injured. Lucas nodded "Yes, I am" and replied shortly before he opened the door wide for Stephen to come in. "Where is Axel?" he asked. "The first room" Lucas pointed to a room, the bungalow had a sitting room and two bedrooms in it. After receiving a direction, Stephen w

Mirabel came down from the car when the wind of air hit her, making her stagger a little as she held her hand to her forehead, she was feeling extremely dizzy but she wanted to see Axel, and that was enough to keep her up. Marcel walked to where she was and came to stand beside her "He's here, let's go in ma'am" he said and she nodded before he made his way to the building with her trailing behind. As they approached the building, Mirabel's gaze landed on the lady that stood beside the door. She was donned completely in black colors, Mirabel's gaze squinted but she looked away. Just before they could get in Quinn stopped them. "I would appreciate it if we don't have a lot of people coming into this place," she said to Marcel and Mirabel but her gaze was directed to Mirabel as she blocked them from going further into the house. Her action earned a frown from the two people standing in her front. Marcel didn't know who she was nor had he met her before, but he knew their boss was sav

"I'm here," Mirabel said Quinn heard the footsteps that approached and then the voice but she didn't turn to look, she knew Mirabel would come because she had no choice. The cigarette she was smoking became small so she pressed the butt on the wood she sat on, after that, she threw it away before glancing at the lady who was still standing. "Sit" Quinn muttered "Thanks, but please just go straight to the point, tell me what you know," Mirabel said and Quinn chuckled lowly, her action made Mirabel squint her gaze at her. "Ok then, I'll surely tell you what I know but you might need to sit, not that I care, I was just trying to be considerate," Quinn said and stood up from the log of wood, with her back now facing Mirabel. Mirabel didn't say anything after hearing what she said "I want something from you if I tell you" Quinn said to her hearing. Mirabel knew something like this might come up, so she was prepared for it, she wasn't dumb to not know that no one would want to give ou
