"I had no other option, he was the first person that came to my mind, so I just called him. You haven't answered my question yet, I asked you what happened to you ?" Joshua said"Maybe your guess was right," she said"My guess? wait, where were you kidnapped as I thought? who could have done that? did you do anything to anybody why would someone kidnap you in the first place? I don't remember you having any rivals or any quarrels with any other company so who the hell would do that? for what reason would someone kidnap you?" he said his eyes widening in shock"I was kidnapped by some men and a lady. I don't know what was going on, I was just coming back from the dinner I went to have at Zane's house it was quite late, but I decided to come back to my penthouse. on my way to my penthouse, I saw a car following me so closely so I decided to pass another route to my penthouse instead of using the previous one I used to pass, they caught up with me and drugged me. they took me to a place
Zane got in his car and drive off to the organization instead, he wanted to know how far Jesse had gotten concerning the mole in the organizationHe got there after a long drive and came down from his carHe went in and as usual, some gang members were working out, others patrolling since they are on dutyThe place always looks busy, they greeted him with the normal bow and he walked past them without glancing at any of them"Is the boss angry about something? It seems he is not smiling like the other day. This expression of his probably means doom," one of the members saidZane went straight to his office and called for the attention of his bodyguards"Get me, Jesse, now!" He said coldly, it seems he's back to his cold state"Yes boss," they bowed and left to fetch JesseZane opened his laptop checking the deals the organization has had so far, and how they wentJesse came in a few minutes later, he bowed when he got to ZaneZane stood up when Jesse came in, he walked to one side of
***M&J company***Mirabel had called for a board meeting because she was very raged by the results she has seen from some of the work from the various departments, especially the financial department. There have been a lot of redraws this past week she hasn't been around, she was going to let it go but upon further investigation, she found out there was too much to let go"I was just away for just a week and you guys are causing the company to go bankrupt already, do you know how much I have suffered to get this company to be back on its feet? Do you even have a conscience at all? why would you watch a company get close to getting bankrupt without doing anything about it or reporting to anyone? fine I guess that I wasn't here but you could have reported the case to Joshua, he's my PA for crying out loud, he could have done something about it for sure but you just decided to keep it to yourself for what reason!!!" she yelled at them as their heads were bowed they couldn't look at her
****M&J company~5pm*** Mirabel was still working on a few of the files when Joshua came in, "He is here," he said "Who is here?" Mirabel asked "Come see for yourself," Joshua said, pulling her from her chair and dragging her to the window Mirabel looked outside and yet she could not understand what Joshua is talking about "Can you stop acting up and tell me who exactly you are talking about?" Mirabel asked with a confused look on her face "Look at the parking lot," he said "Yes I can see cars obviously parked outside," she said confusedly "Just cars?" He asked "He's just cars but.....wait....is that not Zane's car. What is his car doing here? Oh, wait he is here for real?" She gasped when she says him coming out of the car after parking it "I need you to do something for me, please," she said "And what is that ?" he asked "Just tell him I'm not around, I've gone home or something. I just don't want to ride with him to the house," she said "Why don't you want to ride with
Zane sighed and fell back in the couch, putting one arm behind his head for supportReagan studied him for a while before turning back to the movie he was watching with Madam Claudia earlier before they came in.Reagan smiled to himself when thoughts of Mirabel and Zane came to his head. All their actions show that they are falling for each other, but none of them is ready to accept the truth.Each of them have their own flaws and reasons why they don't want to be with the other party. Their pasts are major reasons why they are restricting themselves from having that kind of mutual relationshipBut Reagan being Reagan, has vowed to put them together no matter how long it takes. What he needs is just a partner to help him put his plans into placeTalking of a helper, he could think of no one else other than Mirabel's assistant, Joshua. He remembers Zane once complained to him about the dude and not just once, twice actually. For a first, he told him about Joshua's intruding in their h
Zane watched as they had fun and smiled when he saw how happy Mirabel looked as she watched Madam Claudia chase Reagan around.She looked so beautiful when she was laughing, and it seems like he was really having a good time watching them. She stopped abruptly when his eyes met with hers.What hurts him is that she didn't give him the usual smile; rather, she looked away immediately. He watched her walk to the kitchen until she disappeared completely.He saw the way Madam Claudia was looking at him, and hence, to avoid being questioned, he had to make an excuse to leave the premises.He got to his room and fell on the bed, thinking. He knew what he did was actually for the better; he just didn't want her getting involved with anything concerning the organization. He didn't want her to stress herself out, but it seems his good intentions were misinterpreted.Maybe it is high time he tells her about the organization; she has the right to know about it too. Just in case that makes her st
Mirabel came out of the kitchen, holding a bottle of wine as a compliment to the food.She dropped it on the table and started serving the food. She got to Zane's turn, and she served him quite normally, though her expression is still blank.Zane couldn't read her exact emotions; he was lost staring at her when she was serving his food.Mirabel looked at him and smiled broadly; to his surprise, she gave him the most beautiful smile ever."Enjoy your meal; I prepared this specially for you," Mirabel said with a cute smile."You are not mad at me," Zane asked."How can I be mad at you? I'm sorry for making you restless," Mirabel said."It's fine; I should be the one apologizing instead. I shouldn't have yelled at you in her presence," Zane said."Now we are good. Enjoy your meal," Mirabel said."Dude, are you not going to eat? What are you thinking about?" Reagan said, bringing him out of his daze."What the hell just happened? Did I just picture all that happening? I'm really going cra
"Zane!!!! What is he doing here," Mirabel thought as she turned away quickly her heart racing madlyWhen she turned to look at the reason why she is not hearing any response, she bumped into Zane's chest since he was standing right behind her"Mirabel," Zane called but she refused to look at him, getting busy with what she was doing before he came inAll this while, Madam Claudia and Reagan were standing at the entrance of the kitchen spying on themMirabel decided to take Reagan's food to him as a way of getting away in order to avoid Zane. Madam Claudia signaled Reagan to go for it instead least their plan fails.Just as Mirabel was about walking out of the door, Reagan walked into the kitchen"Oh thank goodness I met you here. Is this my food?" He asked"Yes, it is . I was just about bringing it to you before you came in," she said with a nervous smile"Are you okay?" Reagan asked"Yeah, sure I'm. Here is your food," she replied, handing over the food to Reagan"Oh thanks, I was g
Mirabel's face lit with smiles as she watched her memories with Zane. Hed smile suddenly disappeared and tears began to trickle down her face when memories of Zane began flooding in her head."I missed you so much hubby," she sniffed, burying her face in her knees.Her tears fell more and more as the minutes passed, and she suddenly felt a hand on her shoulder.Slowly and steadily, she raised her head as she felt a hand on her, her butt landed on the ground when she saw who it was...Her one and only hubby, Zane .He is on a wheelchair."Arggggghhhhh!!!!" Mirabel screamed fearfully."It is me, don't be scared," Zane said simply and smiled at her."No,no, no.......," She muttered, shifting back on her butt."If you don't believe it, just touch me and confirm it," Zane said ,stretching his arm towards her.Mirabel stopped moving and looked at his smiling face, he nodded for her to go ahead and she started moving closer once again.When she finally got to him, she stretched her trembling
...At the airport...Jesse and the guys kept searching for Zane as they could not fish him out of the crowd so easily. They finally found him and joy is a word that just can not describe how happy they are right now. They all hugged him at once , not ready to let go as if when they let him go, he was going to disappear once again."Easy guys , you would not want to choke him to death right?" Someone said beside them.They disengaged from the hug and looked at the one with him who said that and they left their mouths open in shock once again."Reagan!!!!" They chorused and looked at each other's faces."Just kill us already, so many surprises in just a few days? Where have you also been?" Jesse asked."Can we leave here? We will talk about that at the hotel," Zane suggested.They got in the car Jesse brought and he drove off to the hotel, they had already made reservations for them . Leo got the keys and returned to them, he handed the keys to Jesse and Jesse also handed it to Zane."
Jesse and the guys went into the mansion after Vanessa, they met Angel and Mirabel already seated, waiting for them in particular.He is the only baby Alex who is being fed by Mirabel, she was so into him that she didn't notice the guys' presence. Alex is like the best thing that has ever happened to her, though she is a busy lady now as she works from morning till late at night , yet she makes sure she gets time for her baby no matter what.That makes her the best mother Alex could ever ask for, the little boy loves her equally as well, not minding the fact that he has a nanny who takes care of him all the time. Even if he is crying, just the sight of his mother makes him calm. They have that kind of mother and son bond between them."We are here," Leo announced their arrival."Must you be noisy all the time? Can't you stay silent for just some time? So annoying" Rowen hissed and Angel chuckled."You guys kept long enough before coming, mind explaining," Mirabel said without looking
"Okay I know of one," Rowen batted in."What kind of occasion or special moments are you aware of that I do not know of and neither does Jesse know of it either?" Leo asked with a surprised look."Mirabel plans on merging the two companies together . She thinks it is going to be a good idea and also going to save her the stress she has to go through every morning of going to each company. She believes is she put them together, she can possibly working in any of the office in the two companies and still be doing all the work she has to do with no stress," Rowen said. " I don't know about it and not even Jesse who is so close to here knows about it, so how come you are the only one who knows about it?" Leo questioned him."That is because it's not a confidential thing, I happened to come across her when she was having a conversation with the two managers of the companies on the phone . I was just present there when she made that call. That is how I came to know and since she's not so

"Is this real or my eyes are just playing with me? Was that Zane I just spoke to?" Jesse said to himself and drove off with high speed.He got home after some time and parked the car in the garage ,as soon as he was done with that, he went into the guesthouse where he is now staying with other guys . He got changed into a casual wear and rushed back into the mansion. It was getting late already so he hurriedly prepared the evening meal and went back to the house to call Zane.That has always been his normal routine ,as soon as he gets back from the organization, he comes to the mansion to prepare the evening meal . Since the ladies never took it upon themselves to cook in the house with the excuse of them being busy all the time, Jesse had insisted he'll be the one to take care of Mirabel while she was pregnant as he didn't want her to eat junk foods. So he has been the one who is cooking meals for her and till now he still does that, just because of his passion for cooking as he
…. In the States….Mirabel sat in her living room, watching how far she has come as a station is currently showing a documentary about her. She was just coming down the stairs when her eyes caught sight of the television show which got her stuck ."Mirabel don't stand there all day or else your breakfast will get cold," Vanessa yelled from the dining room. She is already seated with Angel, the nurse from the hospital as they are already having their breakfast. Angel and Vanessa are Mirabel's only friends now, and the good thing is they live with her in the mansion. The guys had told her about Mr. Chucks decision and they decided to move out into the guest house instead just like Mr. Chucks had suggested.At the moment, the three ladies are the ones occupying the mansion, Angel had moved in with them after Mirabel put to bed a bouncing baby boy. They were happy as the kid looked no less than Zane , he is a typical replica of Zane no doubt. Mirabel named the boy Alex as that was the na
... A week after….Zane sat in his room , watching a conference show of how much Mirabel has become great in the business world, she is the only woman amongst the many successful people who has made it to that kind of level. Zane smiled for the uptenth time , seeing her on the screen of the television, at moment she is giving a speech and a word of advice to others to stay strong in whatever no matter the storm that comes their way."I want to tell you all, that be positive in everything you do. Positive energy is all you need to keep you going, that is all I have for you today, thank you all," Mirabel ended her speech and a thunderous applause followed as camera's lights too flashed at her, the reporters taking as many pictures as they can.Zane watched the conference till it was over and he started changing the channels , in search of another station which is hosting a program with Mirabel. He turned off the television when he could not find any, that has been his normal routine t
...Two years later~Mexico..A guy is sitting in a wheelchair, staring at the window in his room. Though he is looking outside, he is lostbi his thoughts as well. His mind is full of a lot of things he can't voice out even one-quarter of it .A man entered the guy's room but the guy ignored him totally as if he is still the only one inside the room. The man sighed and went to hold his shoulder yet there was no response from the guy at all."Have you been thinking again? I thought the doctor assured you, this is the last phase of the treatment we have been going for so there is nothing to worry about. Be rest assured you will be able to walk again, I trust my doctor's words very much, he will never disappoint us," the man said."I don't care about the treatment anymore, I just can't get the incident out of my mind. Of only I had stopped her from going with them, all this wouldn't have happened. I would have been around her through her trials and also I wouldn't have been in this damn w
