The Devil behind me Chapter 151
Everyone except Axel and grandfather glanced toward Vince's direction when they heard the sound. "Mirabel? Who's Mirabel?" Blaire was the one to break the silence as she had no idea who Martins was referring to. "Why would you bring up such a matter when we are at the dining table if she isn't here, then isn't it obvious she had left? She couldn't stay with him and had left, why talk about her again?" Vince glared at Martins for bringing up such a discussion about Mirabel. "Oh! I was just curious that's why I asked" Martins used that as an excuse, which sounded like a lie, cause a smile was on his face. No one said a thing again, while Grandfather dropped his gaze to Axel who wasn't saying anything, rather he was staring deep at Martins, he looked extremely cool and not fazed about it. Minutes later Grandfather stood up from the table after he had finished his meal, Axel also stood up "I'm leaving" he announced. "Can't you stay for the night?" Reina asked but to her disappointme

The old master walked into the mansion after giving Troy an earful of his words, his gaze fell on Martins who was sitting on a couch in the sitting room staring into thin air as he looked up at the ceiling. Taking further steps in, Grandfather rose his stick up and used it to hit Martins in his leg, this unexpected action made the young man who was staring at the ceiling flinch as he glanced towards where Grandfather stood. "Grandfather..!" his brows creased "Why would you hit me with your walking stick?" he asked, looking offended at the action. "You still have the guts to ask me such a question, when are you going to stop interrupting conversations in the dining room by spouting your nonsense" The old man rose his stick to hit him again but Martins was fast enough to move from there, falling to the floor. "I wasn't spouting nonsense, I was just making the atmosphere lively," Martins said as he stood up from the floor, dusting the sleeve of his shirt. "Making the atmosphere livel

"Pheew! Finally," someone released a long breath beside Mirabel, she turned her head and smiled at the young lady with short brown hair and doe brown eyes that stood beside her. "Yeah, finally, now you can have a rest" She patted Olivia's back, the young lady was aerophobic and had been complaining almost every passing second when they were on the flight. Olivia was her assistant at SPOTLIGHT ENT. of Country B, she was paired with an assistant after the drama she had acted in Country B. A few other people joined them minutes later, three women and three men, "Mirabel you are going to have to face the trouble of showing us around if you don't mind, since you were in Country A before, none of us here have visited, not even for once" A lady who looked to be in her mid-forties said, a smile on her face as she muttered politely. She was the director, Diana. These were just a few of her colleagues, the whole filming crew would arrive tomorrow, which is on Tuesday. "Oh, ok. I'll do that.

Mirabel glanced up at Arabella who had her jaw wide open as she heard her words, it sounded like Arabella didn't believe. Releasing a breath, Mirabel sat upright on the bed, she was looking for a way of telling Arabella and she didn't intend it to be this early, but she couldn't hold back from vomiting when her insides were rejecting just the scent of the food. "Would you at least say something rather than keep on staring at me that way" Pulling out from her reverie Arabella muttered "What the hell do you expect me to say, I'm so shocked, although I was hoping for this at first, still it came as a surprise, and I need little time to digest the words into my thoughts" "I'll dress up then" Mirabel stood up from the bed and walked to the closet, picking up brown pants and a white shirt. "For how long now?" "Found out about it a week ago," Mirabel said as she made her way to the bathroom to dress up. "No, that's not what I'm referring to. Like how long have you been pregnant?" Mirab

Eyes locked on each other, held in a close grasp, it felt like time halted for a moment as Mirabel's brown lovely eyes stared into his dark abyss eyes, the dark eyes she had fallen in love with at first, his cologne and musky scent wafting into her nostrils. Her hands were on his chest as he held her waist, she could feel his quickened fast beating heartbeat as he stared down at her. She expected something like this may likely happen, but she wasn't expecting it to be on the first day she just arrived, this wasn't right. "Mira" he muttered her name softly, his deep voice called out to her in the most soothing way ever. 'No, no, no' Mirabel screamed in her head How would she have the strong will to leave again after meeting him this way, everything wasn't right, she wasn't expecting this. Their eyes were on each other, not wavering for a bit. A teardrop unconsciously fell off her eyes.****** EARLIER** Mirabel walked into the large hospital with Arabella, and they went strai

Mirabel felt a shiver run down her spine, but she didn't intend to waver no matter what. She was mentally prepared to handle this. If their safety would only be when they aren't together, then she would try hard to stay away from him. Even if she would have to say more hurtful words than this. "Release my hands, Axel, your grip is too tight" She frowned as she looked down at her hands which were gripped tightly by him. Axel calm down his nerves and loosened his grip on her hands, not releasing her yet, he released a sigh as he looked down at her, his gaze still soft on her, even though his aura was screaming danger to the trio who were there. Seeing the burning tension, Troy cleared his throat and walked away from there, alongside Marcel. "I'll wait for you inside, Mira" Arabella said and walked inside the hotel building giving the duo the privacy needed. "Now, would you please let me go, we can just talk, you don't have to hold me," Mirabel said as she looked down to her right h
The Devil behind me Chapter 157
Butler Luke stood amidst the gazes of the members of the Stuart family who were waiting for him to say something. "I'm sorry, I can't say anything, the old master has ordered me not to, he said he would inform the others when it's time. I'm in no position to say anything," he bowed his head low after his statement. He honestly would have told them, but he was in no position to do so when his master had already ordered him not to. Troy released a frustrated breath, and so did the others as they could only wait for Grandfather to tell them what was wrong himself, they weren't going to force Butler Luke, cause even though they did, the butler wouldn't still say a thing. He was only being loyal to one person, and that's his master. The hallway became silent as no one said a thing, only Blaire's continuous sniffing was heard, every member of the family was close to him in their way, he was strict and strong-headed at times, but he never fails to advise, and have time for his family.

The Devil behind me Chapter 158
The room was silent except for the beeping sound of the machines monitoring the old man's vitals. Axel sat down quietly in the room on a chair beside his grandfather as he awaited a response from him, watching as the old man's chest rise and fall with each labored breath. Axel knew something was wrong but he didn't know what. His grandfather had always been a strong, stoic man, and he had never seen him sick before. "What's the wrong grandfather?" he asked again after he didn't receive a response for a long time. Grandfather glanced at Axel as he hesitated to speak, closing his eyes shut, he opened them again and looked up at the ceiling. Even if he could keep it from others, it wasn't the same for Axel, he had done it successfully for the last few weeks, but he couldn't anymore. Releasing a sigh, he finally opened up and said what was wrong with him "I have pneumonia" Axel felt his heart sink when he heard his grandfather's words, Pneumonia was a serious illness, especially for
