When Mirabel and the filming crew arrived back at the hotel that night, everyone went straight to their rooms, and food was taken to each room an hour later. 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

****** Axel sat down in his office and suddenly received a call from his grandfather who requested he comes home immediately. He stood up from his swiveling chair and walked towards the door to head to Stuart's mansion, but before he could open the door, a knock was heard from outside. 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. Marcel checked the time on his wristwatch, it was 4:00 PM already "Dinner with Mr. Angelo around 8 PM. Meeting with RAIZ, a small-scale company that wants to be sold, and then your Flight to Country D around 10:00 PM" Marcel said in one go without st

Axel arrived at the Stuart mansion, he walked inside and went upstairs straight to his grandfather's room. He gave a slight knock as he stood outside the door. "Come in, Axel" the old man uttered from inside as he already knew who was there. Axel opened the door and walked into the study room, he saw his grandfather standing close to the window as he stared outside. Before he could say a thing, Old Master Stuart uttered, breaking the silence "Where's Mirabel?" "She traveled to ARION for filming" replied Axel, he stood inches away from his grandfather, his two hands in his pocket. The old man took a deep breath as if what he was about to say would weigh a lot. And it did "We might have to cancel your wedding with her" he suddenly said out of the blue. A date has been set already but he just realized something which might cause harm in the future, and this made him doubt whether a marriage should still be held for the two or not. Axel's gaze narrowed as he faced his grandfather "Wh

****** Arabella walked toward the exit of the airport as she had just returned, she had been on a trip with her co-flight attendants for the past few weeks but they all returned today. With her bag hung on her shoulders and her little box which she rolled effortlessly on the floor, her phone was in her hands as she was making a call. "Yeah, you have to ask Maddy about that, she informed me that she would report back to the other station today," Arabella said to the other person with whom her call was connected. Arabella halted in her steps as if thinking about something. "I'll make a call to her then, to make things easier" Arabella uttered "Nah, no need. You are welcome. Ok then, bye" she said before she finally disconnected the call. She walked outside the airport and stood there waiting for a taxi, she wasn't sure where she should head to now. Whether her apartment or she should go straight to her mom. After a few minutes of contemplating, she decided to go to her apartment fi

Days went by and weeks ran out, and it was finally the last day of filming, it was on the 19th of the month already. Mirabel and the crew members were getting ready to shoot the last scene which involved the burying of Lady Penelope and Patricia. Mirabel sat down on a chair glancing around the place as they all waited for the director's voice to commence. "I feel like this filming ended too fast, I didn't even enjoy myself that much" Mirabel heard Leon utter from nowhere as he came to stand by her side. Hearing his words, she rose her head to the side and rolled her eyes at him, to her, the shooting for this movie felt like it took too much time "No comment on that" she said to Leon and turned her gaze elsewhere. It landed on senior Ace. As usual, he sat down alone far from the others 'Seems like he has no friends and also hates noise' Mirabel thought because for the past few weeks, they'd all spent together, she noticed that he always liked staying alone far from others and she h

Mirabel who was sleeping soundly in her hotel room was suddenly woken up by the disturbing sound from her phone as someone was calling repeatedly. She groggily picked up the phone from the bedside table and answered without checking who was calling. "Hello?" "I reserved a seat for you, aren't you coming again?" Leon's voice resounded from the other end of the call. It was at this moment that Mirabel realized she had been sleeping for hours as the time was already 9:46 PM. "Umm, when is it finishing?" asked Mirabel as she stood up from the bed with the phone to her ear. "Probably by ten" Leon answered. "Oh, well then, there is no need for me to come again" she reasoned with him. "The Director inquired about you earlier " Leon informed. "Just tell them I'm sick and can't make it" "Ok, will do. Goodbye," Leon said before the call ended. Mirabel was still tired, so she dropped her phone on the table and lay back on the bed, slowly dozing off. ******* NEXT DAY, MORNING All the
