COUNTRY B**** Samael sat down on a chair in the large space all alone, his gaze was straight to a portrait which was on the wall. The portrait had three people in it, a man who was in his early fifties at that time and two other children stood on each side while he sat down. Samael let out a sigh, the portrait was taken when Daniella was still alive and hadn't run away from the clan, in the picture, their father had a straight face as he sat down, it was always like that, while Daniella had a lovely smile on her face. "I'm sorry Daniella," Samael said in a low voice. He and his sister had a very close relationship but no matter what, rules are rules, and whoever broke them must face the consequences, which was the reason for his sister's death. Samael recalled the incident that happened years ago, it was twenty-five years ago before Daniella eloped the clan and country for the man she loved.***25 YEARS AGO*** "Father, I love this man so much and he does the same, please let me ju

Charlotte arrived at GOLDFOX, she drove her car to the parking lot and stopped, hopping down from the car. She turned to leave the parking lot and head into the company but she was stopped by a person's voice which she heard from behind her. "Who comes to work by this time? You are so late, are you queried for this? it's after eleven already, yet, you just arrived" The voice sounded familiar so she turned around to look at who was speaking, and just like she expected she saw him. She didn't want to argue with this person so she just said "I had something important to do back at home that's why I'm late. I come early to work every day, today as an exception" she muttered to his hearing. Troy became silent for a while, he was just arriving at the company as he had left to go get something hours ago, on coming back he saw the figure that he was very much used to seeing now. "I'll inform Mrs. Jennie to not accept lateness from anyone again, you all don't know how to abide by rules caus

2:00 PM, ARLAN*** After cleaning his face, legs, and hand gently with a wet cloth, Mirabel sat down beside Axel who was still in an unconscious state on the bed, his fingers only moved last night but nothing else happened after that, she let out a breath and stood up from the bed before she walked into the bathroom. She turned the faucet on and splashed water on her face, she hadn't slept ever since last night and she didn't want to, cause she wanted to be awake to watch over him. The throbbing headache she had a couple of days ago had finally stopped, but her body seemed weak recently. After rinsing her face she came out of the bathroom with a towel which she used in wiping off the water, the door to the bedroom was gently opened and Stephen walked inside. "You still haven't touched your breakfast," he said and walked up to the bed, Mirabel glanced at him and then at the table where her food was kept, she didn't feel like eating that's why. John brought food this morning which wa

Quinn glanced up at the sky before she looked back down at Mirabel who had her gaze directed straight at a tall tree, they were in the forest right now and trees surrounded them, big, tall trees that made a shade above their heads. Mirabel sat down on the forest green grass while Quinn stood directly beside her. "What do you want to tell me?" Mirabel said after a long while of sitting and saying nothing to each other. She turned her gaze to the lady dressed in all black who had her back resting against a tree. "Your parents died as a result of... Don't know how exactly to start this but your father and mother's union was never accepted from the beginning, that's something you should know about first before anything" Quinn squatted down and picked a stone from the floor. Mirabel didn't say anything as her gaze followed Quinn closely "I'm not in the right shoes to tell you this story, my father is, and he would explain better when I take you from here" Quinn threw the stone up and cau

Days ran out fast and soon it was Friday, Mirabel woke up when she heard a sound from her phone which dinged with a message. Still feeling groggy, Mirabel yawned, her back was aching so badly cause she had been sleeping on the couch beside Axel's bed, she glanced at him, he was still unconscious and there was no improvement in his health for the past few days. Mirabel took a bottle of water from the table beside the couch, uncapped it, and then gulped it down, she stood up and walked to the bathroom, returning a few minutes later after she had brushed her teeth and also rinsed her face. She picked up her phone which made a sound that woke her up, it was a message from Arabella which read.~~Sunrise, Sunshine Mira!! time to wake up and make breakfast for Axel. *Giggles* I'll remind you this every day till your early moon is over *Wink* A tear escaped from Mirabel's eyes as she stared at the message, she had lied to Arabella. She lied to her friend that she went on an early moon with

A disaster that needed to be solved soon. "We have to think of something fast and soon," Stephen said, almost having a throbbing headache on the recent happenings. "But what?" Mirabel cried, right now she knew she couldn't just leave tomorrow till all this is settled. She can't just go with Quinn when they had an issue to solve right here. She was confused about what to do, everyone was confused. The door was opened and John walked in alongside Dave whose condition was now okay as he could walk properly, his injuries were healing already. Troy looked at Mirabel as he hesitated to speak, not knowing if what he was about to say would make any sense but he still went on "If things get worse, we would have to tell them what happened, but we would wait for a few more days first" he said and Stephen nodded in approval, that was the only thing they could do right now, buy more time and wait for a few more days with the hope that Axel wakes up from his unconscious state. Axel who lay on

STUART'S MANSION*** Old master's study room, it was Saturday morning and the newspaper arrived at the mailbox outside of the mansion. Master Stuart was in his study room sipping his early morning coffee as he looked out of the window to the garden, his gaze traveling around the different colors of flowers that decorated the garden, he stayed there for a few more minutes before he stood up from there and walked to the table, he picked up his phone to make a call but the loud knock on his door from someone outside made him furrow his brows in anger. Why would someone come and knock on his door this way, early this morning, the person knocked again, this time harshly as if he or she couldn't wait any longer. With a frown on his face, the old master walked to the door, his walking stick clicked as he approached the door, rather than telling the person to come in, he decided on checking who the person was first. With his hand on the door handle, he opened it to meet Vince who looked to

Troy hung up the call after the call ended with grandfather, he rubbed his palms on his forehead and rested his back on the couch "Can things just not get worse" he muttered. "They would arrive in less than an hour if they take the private jet, what are we going to say to them if they come? Grandfather is already panicked and furious" Troy said, after telling his grandfather about Axel's accident, he asked what happened but he told them he didn't know how to explain the situation, and now they were coming to Arlan. "It's good they know now, at least that problem is canceled," Mirabel said as she picked up her phone from the table next to the bed, she hadn't switched it on ever since last night. Her action earned a glance from Troy who shared a look with Stephen, she was going to find out about the article and there was nothing they could do. Mirabel switched on her phone and at that same moment Troy immediately stood up and grabbed it from her hand, his action surprised her and she

Mirabel wasn't completely sure if it was the person she was thinking about. Maybe Stella had finally decided to a make move after all the empty threats she had been giving for a while now. Whoever did this would be someone who was there when Steve had come to the front of the company to harass her, cause that's the only way anyone would know about what she had with Steve before. Marcel needed her to at least call someone she might suspect it to be so they can have a lead on where and who to search for, he waited patiently for her, they were all waiting for her to say a name and after a few minutes, she finally opened up. "I think It's Stella" ****** About Almost an hour later, everyone had gone out of the room and it was only Mirabel left, she had just finished several minutes' call with Arabella who wanted to make sure she was okay, even after she had assured her that she wasn't that bothered about the article. Mirabel dialed Charlotte's number but it wasn't reachable so she tr

Vince became silent for a while, this was the first time that Troy was standing against him and it was all because of her fault, his gaze moved from Troy to Mirabel who was at his back. "This is what you planned, right? By coming into this family you intend to break the bond of this family, they can all say what they want but just know I'll never approve of you staying with Axel," Vince said with a serious tone, his words shattered Mirabel's heart, why would she want to break the bond of the family? she would be lying if she said his words didn't hurt her. "Would you just stop this, your son is laying unconscious over here for goodness sake" Reina cried. The old master didn't say a thing again, he just kept shut with his gaze straight on Axel. "This is the last warning I would give to you Mirabel," Vince said before he turned his gaze to face Axel. Stephen stood there not saying anything, no one had anything to say, they just wanted Axel to wake up, none of this would happen if he
