Later that night Isabelle's phone rang, she picked it up and took a look at the call ID, it was Sebastien. She then answered the call with a smile on her face. “How are you feeling now?” His smooth voice was the first thing she heard. His voice always made her fall deeper in love with him. If that was even possible. “I've told you I'm fine, Sebastien.” Isabelle tried to assure him. “Thanks for your help earlier today, you still haven't told me how you did it but I'm sure we didn't get hurt because of you” “Hmm. Like I said earlier, at the right time. You'll know. Right now let's focus on securing the deal with Chesterfield investment company. We really need to get this deal” Isabelle nodded, forgetting for a moment that he wasn't there with her. “Yes. But how can we do that in such a short time frame? We have just today and tomorrow!” Isabelle wanted nothing more but to see Miranda being put to shame but at the same time the possibility of Isabelle getting the investment was ver
Sebastien was supposed to meet Isabelle that afternoon but the plans her parents had ruined everything. Isabelle was currently seated in front of the huge mirror that was placed in her bedroom and the hairstylist and make-up artist were busy on her hair and face respectively. Immediately she agreed to go for the dinner, Adeline was so excited that she called professionals to make Isabelle look more beautiful. In no time they were done with what they came to do and Isabelle took a look at the mirror and she was impressed because of how good the make up made her look.After that, the beauticians left and Adeline came into the room with some boxes. Isabelle was surprised when she saw the labels on those boxes. Those were designer products and they weren't extremely expensive. “Mum! How did you get that?” She couldn't help but ask because she knew with their current financial situation there was no way that her mother would have been able to purchase products from prestige brand. Even t
Sebastian was hurt by their actions, but deep down he had a feeling that Isabelle would not betray him. He knew that no matter what, she would stay by his side. If she was with him when he was handicapped, how much more now that he is hale and hearty. His phone rang and he picked it up, it was the man he was supposed to have a meeting with concerning the Chesterfield investment deal. “Good day sir. So we have scheduled the meeting for tomorrow as you earlier requested, just wanted to confirm if it's fine with you” the man said.“No. Let's have the meeting today” Sebastian said with so much authority. He had earlier planned on telling Isabelle about his meeting plans with some of the officials in Chesterfield investment group but since she had other plans he was just going to carry on without her.There's no time to waste.“The luxe, 10am. Don't be late” Sebastien gave out orders.“Alright sir” And the call ended abruptly. ************Meanwhile, Isabelle and her parents were gettin
Adeline fumed in anger, as she who the hell gave Sebastien access to this prestigious restaurant. Not only that but he was also suggesting Isabelle joined him on the seventh floor!“Keep your filthy offer to yourself! Tell me, how did you get access to this restaurant?” Adeline said bitterly, everything was going well, everyone was getting along just fine and Sebastien just had to come at this time. She was so livid!Isabelle was surprised, the seventh floor was even more expensive and more extravagant than this floor they were currently on. The higher the floors the more expensive and classy they became. This made Isabelle question once again, who Sebastien truly is.Sebastien smiled warmly, “oh, you hurt my feelings with your words and I couldn't care less. All I doing is asking your daughter if she'll come along with me to the seventh floor”“What sort of joke is this, Sebastien. If you can't respect us, why don't you respect the family seated on the same table as us. Just go back
Meanwhile,At Roland's mansion, Miranda was pressuring him as they had not made any progress since the previous day. They hadn't received any feedback from Chesterfield investment company. Miranda paced to and fro the large living room, she couldn't bear the thought of not being able to secure the deal and losing out on the chance of becoming the next heir. Isabelle had already succeeded in getting the debt from Romero, who knows how long it'll take her to secure the deal too.Miranda glared at Roland who was sitting on the couch with his legs crossed at the ankle, “you aren't even doing anything! Aren't you supposed to be as bothered as I am right now. Or don't you know whatever happens will also affect you as much as it'll affect me”“But what do you want me to do? Or rather what do you expect me to do? I have already submitted the application to the company and all I await is feedback” Roland answered her calmly. “How long do we have to wait for feedback! We have just tomorrow Ro
At Roland's mansion;It was almost midnight and Miranda and Roland were yet to have feedback from the Chesterfield investment company. They were starting to wonder if their letter even got delivered to the higher ups in the company. “Are you sure you didn't give the letter to an ordinary secretary at the company?!” Miranda questioned for the thousandth time. Roland, knowing fully well that he submitted the letter just like any other person would have, still nodded to assure her that he gave the letter to someone with a more significant position in the company. Which isn't true. “Babe, I'm sure of what I'm telling you. Just relax, we'll get feedback soon” Roland said that to also assure himself, all he was holding on to now was just hope.“It's almost 12 am. How long do we have to wait?” Miranda asked tiredly. She had high hopes at first but now it is slowly melting away.Roland pulled her closer to him and placed her on his laps, her legs hanging on either side of his, so she was s
They finally arrived at Chesterfield investment company. Apart from being an influential company it was also known for its luxurious interior and exterior design. It included a sleek glass facade with a minimalist aesthetic design.They got down from the car and made their way to the entrance, Sebastien placed his hand around her waist as they entered the company's reception which consisted of a grand lobby and the reception area.They walked towards the reception area and an old woman was seated behind the desk, writing something on a huge log book. She looked up when she sensed our presence and then she smiled at Sebastien. “Good day, sir” the woman greeted politely even though it was obvious that she was older than him.Sebastien replied with a polite nod.”Thank you ma'am and good day”There were a lot of people on the queue waiting to be attended to but Sebastien just stood by the side even though Isabelle suggested they take a seat otherwise they'll stand for hours but Sebastien
At Roland's mansion, Roland was still busy plotting how he'll execute his plans, when his phone rang and it was his friend, he picked it up. “hello! Hello! I really need your help.” Roland said frantically. It was almost dawn and they still hadn't gotten any notification from Chesterfield investment company. Miranda was out on an errand so this was the perfect time to make this call. “What do you need?” His friend questioned, wondering why Roland was sounding this way.“I need your signature. I want to forge a partnership agreement and you are the only person that can help me” Roland said, his friend, Leo, who is a lawyer is the only person capable of bailing him out of this situation. “Hold on! Hold on! I do think I'll be able to do that, I can get my certificate revoked if anyone finds out. Sorry bro, but that's too risky” Leo quickly backed away, he couldn't bear the thought of losing a certificate he spent more than five years schooling to get.“No, just listen to me. There's n
