Mirabel woke up very early on Friday, cause she had to arrive at Gold Fox early before traveling together with the team. She got up from the bed, glancing toward Axel's side of the bed, but he wasn't there. Mirabel stood up and went straight to the bathroom to take her bath, she brushed her teeth in haste before she showered up and walked out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around her chest, the length reaching above her knees. She removed the towel that she had used in wrapping her hair. Her hair was damp because she had washed it, and the water droplets from her hair trailed down to her shoulder. Mirabel went straight to the mirror and blow-dried her hair with the hair dryer. She went into the closet and picked up a simple dress, a black long-sleeved top, and a pair of jeans and trousers, she didn't take long before dressing up. Mirabel wore her black long coat which reached below her knees, she took her handbag and a box that contained her clothes to wear for the next few w

***STUART'S MANSION*** Troy stood in front of his grandfather who was studying the file he had brought home, nervousness, and sweat evident in Troy's eyes with the hope that his grandfather sees this as a good sign and unfreeze his account. "Good good, I'm impressed, keep it up. These are things you should spend more of your time on and not play around with your friends always, by partying at every chance you get" Old Master Stuart sat down with his glasses on as he read the document. "Now you can leave, bring more of this and I might consider pardoning you" Troy felt all his hopes shatter as he heard what his grandfather said. 'More of this?' he has spent his sweat, sleep, and time to make just one, and his grandfather wants him to bring more. "Grandfa..." "Shush, you can leave" Old Master Stuart dropped the document on the table and went back to the newspaper he had been reading before Troy came in. Troy didn't know what to do again, he picked up the document and walked out of

She didn't take long in the bathroom before she came out after taking her bath, she went to the closet and picked out one of her blue trousers, pairing it with a light blue top. She dressed up, wore her shoes, and got ready to walk out of the room, it was already a few minutes to seven by the time she got ready. She walked out in time to see Stella also coming out of her room, Mirabel didn't stop there as she didn't want to watch Stella display a drama early this morning. But Stella on the other hand wasn't having any of that, remembering how she was humiliated by Mirabel and Charlotte a few weeks back "Bitch, so bad your stupid friend isn't here. So, you better watch your back since you are alone, I can attack anytime" Mirabel wouldn't have answered h

Now, Mirabel was in her room munching her plate of food when she received a call from Arabella, she answered the Facetime call and set her phone on the table. "Hey" "What's up, I called to ask a question but I can't remember again" Arabella uttered as she bit her lips in annoyance at the fact that she had forgotten the reason why she called. "Ok, I'm waiting here till you remember," Mirabel said as she stood up to get a bottle of water from the fridge in the room. She took out water and uncapped the bottle before she went back to seat on the bed facing Arabella. "Oh yes! I remember now" Arabella on the other side suddenly jerked and sat up straight on the bed. "Do you still remember the guy in our college class back then who always hung around us like a fly wherever we went" Arabella let out, and you could almost see sparkle

NEXT DAY*** The filming crew was getting ready to enter the bus which would take them all to the ground for acting today. Mirabel stood with her back on the bus and her phone in her hands as she waited for them to enter gently. A few minutes later it was her turn to get in when suddenly a car drove into the gates of the hotel, the driver pressed the horn of the car so loud that it drew the attention of the crew members who were yet to enter the bus. Mirabel creased her brows as she checked in that direction and saw the red range rover, she knew who owns that car, Leon. But what was he doing here? Her thoughts were clouded with questions that she didn't realize when he came down from the car and walked up to her. "Thank goodness I arrived early," he said to her, flashing her his beautiful morning smile. "Why are you here? thought you would meet us at the market?" Mirabel asked because today's scene would be played in a market. "I came to pick you up," he said. And immediately got

Days ran into weeks and finally, the end of the month approached, Catherine walked into Steve's company majestically, her hair cascading down with pride and her low heels making sounds on the floor. "Good afternoon, ma'am" an employee greeted her and Catherine nodded in response. This was the type of life she wanted and wished for, whereby she would have people see her and address her with respect, and the only way this could happen is if she makes it into the Jim family. Catherine arrived at a door, opened it, and walked inside. Steve was there, standing close to the window as he stared outside. On hearing the door open and the sound of shoes that approached him, he turned around, and his gaze landed on Catherine who was looking at him with a smile. "Steveee," Catherine said and tried to hug Steve but he ignored her acting like he didn't know as he walked from there and went to sit down on his office chair. Catherine cleared her throat before she sat down on the couch "What are yo

Moving back a little bit, he opened the door and came face to face with Marcel. Axel didn't stop so he walked past his assistant. Marcel took that as a hint that he should follow him. "What's it?" Axel asked as they arrived at the parking lot before he could enter the car. "We submitted the papers to Jim's mansion earlier today," Marcel said reminding his boss of the assignment he had given them. "Good. What's my schedule like later on?" Axel inquired.
