CHAPTER TWELVE

Meanwhile, Marcel's face was sweaty as he drove in his car through the feet.

For reasons that he could not know, his feet were shivering so badly and his hands ached on the starry.

Right from the very first day that he had known Mr. Blakes, he had never seen him so angry before.

"What do you think might have been wrong?" The seat that sat beside him all those while in silence finally broke the silence.

"I am supposed to know." He could not help but transfer the same energy that he had been given by Mr. Blakes.

He could feel his heart beating hard against his chest as though it was going to burst through as the thoughts about what happened crossed his mind.

The events before that could not help but scream through and only one name surfaced in his head.

Ethan.

His Hands clenched tightly until it made a cracking sound and the expression on his face deepened.

His sister could not help but notice the quick change in his countenance and had to ask what was wrong.

Is anything the matter?" Her enquiry stemmed through his head snapping him off from his thoughts.

"Who else could it be if not for that fool called Ethan." She heard him saying but she was even more confused than ever.

"Ethan? Who is he and how does he have anything to do with what happened? Is he a thick billionaire or something?" 

"Billionaire?" He scoffed.

"Isn't it evident that he rubbed off his bad luck on me?" He said.

But his words got his sister even more confused than he was already.

Random thoughts ran through her head as she tried to screen through the past events of what happened in her head to see if she could get any clue.

The only person that she had seen his brother with was the pitiful fellow. And rubbing off bad luck.

"Could he be the one that he was talking about?" She thought again.

She towards him slowly and stared right into his eyes wanting a definite answer from him.

"Wait! Are you talking about that pitiful fellow that I saw with you earlier?" She shot a stare at him waiting patiently for the answers.

But his next response shocked him so much

"Who else could it possibly be?"

Immediately he spat out the words from his mouth, she burst out into laughter clutching hard to her stomach almost immediately.

"Are you serious right now? Blaming him?" She laughed harder than she had ever done all her life. Her laughter broke into a slight cough.

It certainly cannot be him, I am just sure that he is in a bad mood today." She added...

Marcel shot a withering stare at her but that did not go anywhere into stopping her as she continued right in the act.

He was about to argue with her but she had the perfect medicine right in stalk for him.

"What about Beauty? How are you going to deal with her now?" He inquired.

Immediately she said the word, he realized what he should be talking about now rather than Ethan but he just had this odd feeling of pissing him off.

A slight sigh escaped from his mouth again as his mind wandered towards her.

The success of his project today was mainly because of her. She was the owner of the papers that he had taken there to the company

But now that they had rejected him, he did know what to say to her.

And he could not find out the truth about him now, which was that he never loved her.

The only thing that he wanted from her was to take over her family's company and add it to her. He had already plotted the plans and if everything went well, it was going to be nothing other than eating a cake.

"Are you even listening to me?" She inquired with a frown hanging on her face at the fact that her brother was arguing with her.

"Well, what do you suggest?" He inquired because he could not get his mind on anything at the moment.

"Well, I guess that you should tell her everything about what happened." She suggested.

Immediately she spat out the words from her mouth, he spilled out all the water in his mouth through the window.

"What!!!" He exclaimed."

"What else do you even intend to tell her? Lie to her or what? Are you for real right now? Knowing well that she is going to find out about the truth in the long run?" He shot the Words.

Right now, he could feel his heart racing fast, and sweat broke out from the Corner of his face...

That was the only right thing to do?" He thought in his head

"He would tell her that Mr. Blake was not in a good mood and he was chased away. That was going to do just fine."

"I guess you are right?" A slight sigh escaped from his mouth.

"Well, good for you 'cause we don't have much time here Anymore. We are here already." He announced.

He looked up and he could see his Mansion just before him.

And all this while, to make things even worse for him, Beauty, the ever-nervous lady was already outside waiting for him all those while.

His heart seemed to limp out from his chest and the only thing that he wanted to do now was to yell at her but he had to do everything within his powers to control himself.

He drew a really deep breath as he walked towards her after stepping down from the car and the guards helped him with his things.

When she got to him, she kissed him on the neck with so much passion and held his hands tightly.

"I know it went well thank you." She appreciated him.

His gaze shifted away from Beauty slowly and fell on his sister.

Her eyes fluttered and she shook her head. Even without her spitting out a single word from her mouth, he already got the message and he nodded her head to her.

Returning his gaze to Beauty, he stared right into her eyes and held her hands tightly.

"Yeah, it went well certainly." He heard himself and the jaw of his sister fall apart in shock yelling an exclamation.

"What!!"
