Pretending not to notice her, Samuel drove off past her.He could see her from his side mirror.She had to learn her lesson and realise her mistakes.She had pulled the last straw too many times.They finally got to the main exit of the residential area and drove out the giant gate after the residence security had certified that they were from the Vincenzo residence.He pressed a button that lifted the barrier for them to drive through.The security protocols in that residential area were very tight due to the fact that a lot of wealthy people resided there.Their statuses alone were a serious threat to them, talkless of their luxurious assets and publicity.As obvious as the prediction was, they were still on their way to the appointment a few minutes after 10:00 am.At the beginning of the day, they planned to beat time but time beat them instead.Elizabeth succeeded in making that happen..It was as if nature was a force against them as time itself began to run faster than usual.B
“Good afternoon” Vincent greeted her back, we were directed here to make a few payments for conducted tests and prescribed drugs.“Okay, just give me a minute” The receptionist said as she adjusted her wheeled seat to the left side of the long desk where the full computer set sat with a charger connected to it.“I’ve received your E-receipt and prescriptions Sir”“How would you like to pay? Via card or bank transfer” “Bank transfer please” Vincent replied.Hearing this, the lady handed him something that looked like a business card with the company's account numbers and bank names on it along with his bill for the tests and drugs “You can pay into any one”of themNodding his head, Vincent collected the card from the receptionist and reached for his phone in the left pocket of his pants to proceed with the transfer.The relaxed look on Vincent’s face suddenly changed into a tense one.“What’s wrong?” Jane asked Vincent, seeing the look of confusion written all over his face.Vincent c
They were fortunate enough to meet Samuel already waiting for them in the car by the time they got to where they had parked earlier.Samuel started the car and their drive home began.It wasn’t up to thirty minutes of their drive back home when Jane started to complain of hunger.“I told you to take your time during breakfast but you were being so stubborn”Vincent wasn’t completely wrong about that.If only Jane had just taken her time to finish her breakfast that morning, maybe…... .Just maybe, they wouldn’t have encountered Elizabeth the moment she arrived.“Samuel, please make a stop at the nearest restaurant around”“Yes Sir” Samuel nodded and altered the location on the car’s google maps.Not long after, the car came to a halt.When Vincent opened the door, he got out of the car to see a huge sign board by the left side of the restaurant, which read “THAI HOUSE”That was the name of the restaurant that Samuel stopped them at.Vincent proceeded to the back of the door to open the
When their Blue-Coloured Rolls Royce Sweptail finally drove into the building, Vincent and Jane got out of the car with the hospital drugs, leaving Samuel to park well in the garage.As Jane walked Vincent into the house, a very familiar voice suddenly called out “Sammy!”“Sammy”This caught Vincent and Jane’s attention as they both stopped right in their tracks.Realising who it was once again, Jane rolled her eyes.“Sammy…….You're home”This girl was no different from a boomerang, she made sure that she always came back.“What has she come here to do this time around?”“To finish what she started in the morning?” Jane thought to herself as she stayed frozen in that position to see what show Elizabeth planned to put on this time.Samuel walked out from the garage to meet Elizabeth waiting for him.He just stared at her, unable to utter a single word.“I'm sorry"“Babe I'm so sorry"Elizabeth began to plead with both her palms together as though she was saying some prayers.“I should
After Elizabeth left them alone, Jane took Vincent to his room so that he could get some rest, although he wasn’t feeling that sick.She had him freshen up and change into something more comfortable than a pair of jeans with a T-shirt.Jane prepared a cup of hot ginger tea for Vincent.Her mother usually did the same for her whenever she was sick.This was because of its antibacterial and antiinflammatory properties, so he wouldn’t become even more sick than he already was along the line. It didn’t take too long before Vincent finally fell asleep after drinking the tea.With Vincent asleep, the next few hours were very boring for Jane as she left the confines of her room to the main parlour.Jane had a very long day and she should've been asleep too but she wasn’t the type to fall asleep in broad daylight.She thought of playing games on the play station but being a single player was boring as well.Besides, without Vincent she would just be playing against herself.She also thoug
Earlier on, Jane was in no mood for this young lady but this…….This was just too funny.It was definitely worth a good laugh!Jane continued to laugh so hard, hitting her fist on the wall.Elizabeth stood there in a state of confusion wondering what exactly was funny.What exactly did she find funny about what she had just said?Or had she suddenly gone mad?Jane continued to laugh like a crazy person.Elizabethwas probably not wrong for thinking that she was.“What is funny about what I just said?” Elizabeth asked Jane with a serious look on her face.Jane finally stopped laughing and took in a very deep breath while looking up at the ceiling.Clearing her throat, Jane began “Where do I even begin?”As much as Jane wanted to insult and ridicule Elizabeth with the truth of the matter, she didn’t want to be the hindrance to her Vincent’s plan.Their death stares and gazes were doing the fighting as numerous things ran through the minds of both ladies.“Out” Jane finally broke the silen
Elizabeth aggressively picked up her black purse where it sat and took out a napkin from it, continuously wiping her face with it.Jane laid on her stomach with both elbows supporting her hands that held her phone, while she swung her legs behind her in the air.She just couldn’t help but shake her head every two minutes whenever her mind played out a glimpse of what transpired between herself and Elizabeth on the staircase.She wasn’t expecting the reaction that Elizabeth gave off when she called her a gold digger.Elizabeth seemed like someone who wasn’t capable of loving anyone.Her love for wealth and luxury had completely blinded her heart towards any form of love.The remorse on Elizabeth’s face looked so real this time, unlike the fake one she expressed while apologising to her earlier.Or could it be that she actually did love Samuel?That was impossible and even if it was, it was definitely none of Jane’s problems.She had promised Vincent that she would not dare to interfere
The unfriendly banter between Jane and Elizabeth went on for quite some time.It escalated over the next few days that followed.Elizabeth never got tired of stepping on Jane’s toes; Jane on the other hand was already fed up with her nonsense.Things continued like this until Samuel and Elizabeth’s wedding got fixed.They both agreed to conduct the main wedding ceremony before having to conduct their court wedding.After much deliberation, they finally fixed a date for it.On that Saturday, the wedding was fixed to be held at a grand hall.One of the biggest in the city.Everything was perfect!It was a luxurious and spacious venue, specifically designed to accommodate a very large number of guests from the looks of the ceremony space in the hall.The hall gave off a feeling of majesty with its large grand doors and chandeliers hanging from the ceiling.The architecture of the pla
