MENDING HIS BROKEN HEART : CHAPTER 71 – 90
Chapter 86
“Um… Annabella, I have to go now.” He said and wanted to stand up but she dragged him back and made him sit down.
“No, mister, you aren’t going anywhere. I am not done with you yet!” She yelled.
Gray facepalmed. “Okay, what do you want me to get for you?” Gray asked.
Annabella rolled her eyes. “Mr Gray, I am not a child that you can bribe with material things, but since you asked, I want you to get something for me. Apparently, my wicked senior sister and brother refused to buy it.” She said.
“What is it? I’ll buy it for you.” Gray said.
“There is a Fresno girl doll that I’ve been asking them to get me for a week now. It is so beautiful and is about my height.” She answered and showed him in her phone. “Look.”
“We refused to buy it because it’s very expensive. The money for that doll alone can build a restaurant.” Lucas said.
“Stop whining like a woman.” Annabella said and gave Gray the puppy eyes. “Will you buy it for me?” She asked.
“Of course, I’ll buy it for you.” Gray answered and she shrieked for joy.
“Wow! Really?”
“Yeah. I’ll come pick you up tomorrow, and you’ll choose the one you want.” Gray said.
“Mr Gray, you don’t have to_”
“I insist, Elena. Anna is a sweet girl, so, that’s the least I can do for her.” He said.
“Lucas, did you hear that? I’m a sweet girl.” She stuck out her tongue to Lucas and he scoffed.
“Thanks for the tea, Elena. I will be on my way now.” Gray said and stood up.
“Awwn! Can’t you stay a bit longer?” Annabella whined.
“I would love to but I have some work spread out on the table waiting for me to attend to.” He said.
“Okay, please, visit us as much as you like.” She said and Elena laughed.
“No problem.” He said.
Elena stood up and escorted him to the car. The rain had already stopped and the weather was now very cold.
“So, we’ll see at work tomorrow.” Gray said.
“Yeah. Thanks for putting up with Annabella, she can be very disturbing at times.” Elena said.
“It’s nothing. I actually like her, being free with everybody and expressing herself openly. Your siblings are just great!” He said and she smiled.
“Thanks. Goodnight and rest well, don’t overwork yourself. You deserve to rest.” She said.
“Sure, thanks.” He smiled and bade her farewell then entered the car. Elena stood there till the car drove out of sight. She sighed and entered inside.
“Your fiance is very hot! Why didn’t you tell me he was this cute?” Annabella asked.
“I told you that he was handsome.” Elena chuckled.
“Yeah, but you didn’t tell me that he was a Demi god.” Annabella said.
“She’s right, he is handsome and the most luckiest man in the world to have you. I can’t wait to see his face when he knows who you truly are, I bet he would kss you so deep.” Lucas said.
“Lucas!” Elena blushed and screamed. They started laughing. Elena wanted to sit on where Gray stood up from but something obstructed her. She looked down and saw Gray’s wallet and room keys.
“Oh No! He forgot his wallet and room keys. Gray doesn’t sleep in any other room except from his, I have to return it to him.” She said.
“It’s already getting late.” Lucas said.
“At least, it’s not too late, he really needs this key. I’ll also use that opportunity to give him his suit jacket.” She said.
“I’m coming with you.” Annabella said.
“No, you’re not. I’ll just go give him and return immediately. Lucas, don’t even think of following me.” She said and he groaned because that was exactly what he was planning.
“Fine, be safe.” He said and she smiled.
She ran upstairs and took the suit jacket then rushed out of the house. Luckily, Gray’s house wasn’t far from theirs, she was there within 10 minutes. She knocked on the gate and they asked of her ID card. She showed them the one at work with Gray’s signature and they let her in.
She inhaled and exhaled before walking to the door. She knocked and after a while the door opened, revealing Lia whose mouth opened in shock on seeing her.

CAMILLE’S HOUSE
Levi drove into the compound and came down from the car. He tried his best to look as sad as possible even though he was very happy inside. He went to the sitting room and Camille asked, “Is she dead?”
“No ma, she beat up the men.” Levi said.
“You must be joking! How can a lady beat up six hefty men, how is that possible?” Camille asked.
“I don’t know but I saw it with my own eyes. I even filmed it, incase you wouldn’t believe me.” Levi said. He actually filmed it by himself so as to convince Camille and distract her from asking him stupid questions.
“Seriously!” She said and collected the phone. She watched how Elena dealt with the men and threw the phone.
“Woah! There goes my phone.” Levi said and sighed.
“What of the drug?” She asked.
“You said aphrodisiacs, I’m not sure if you meant it or_”
“Will you shut up and go get me the drug?” She snapped.
“But, it’s dangerous. It would make her crave for sx.” Levi said.
“That’s my plan! Imagine what Gray will think when his precious personal assistant starts str!pping right before his very eyes.” She said and laughed.
Levi shook his head, Camille has totally gone ¢razy. Elena must hear this, so, she can avoid it.
“Okay, how are you going to achieve it?” Levi asked.
“You know Flora Shay, the lady that got fired right?” Camille asked.
“Yes.”
“I saw her by a corner crying and cursing Elena when I was about entering the company, so, I told her that she should get revenge. So, I’m going to put the drug in a drink and she would offer the drink to Elena as a sign of apology anytime she is summoned to the office. Am I not brilliant?” She laughed.
“Yeah, you are.” Levi said sarcastically. He picked up his phone whose screen was already damaged but it was still manageable, at least, he could still use it to call Elena.
“Don’t worry, I’ll get you a new one tomorrow.” She said and turned her attention to the television.
He entered the car and drove out. When he got to the store, he took his phone out and called Elena. He was lucky to have gotten her number through the research he made about her online.

BACK AT GRAY’S MANSION
“Hi.” She waved at Lia who was lost staring at her.
“H… H… Hi.” Lia said.
Elena wanted to laugh at Lia’s shocked expression but composed herself. “Um, my name is Elena, I am Mr Gray Gerald’s personal assistant. He forgot his wallet and room keys, so I brought them for him.” She said.
“Oh, come in.” Lia said and Elena walked in.
As she entered, Gray was alighting the stairs.
“Lia, did you see my room ke_” He paused when he saw Elena. “You’re here.” He said and she smiled.
“Yeah. You forgot your wallet and room key at my place, so I decided to bring them to you, and to also use that opportunity to give you your suit jacket.” She said.
“Wow! Thanks a lot. I wouldn’t have had anywhere to sleep tonight.” He said and collected them from her.
“You’re welcome.”
“I’ll be on my way now.” She said.
“Won’t you stick around for dinner?” Lia asked.
Elena wanted to say no but she had actually missed Lia’s cooking. It would feel so good to taste her delicious meal again but she wanted to do shakara small.
“No, thanks. I’ll be leaving.” She said but Lia dragged her back.
“Please, stay and eat. I’ll go freshen up and join you guys.” Gray said and went upstairs.
“Come on to the living room and wait while I set the dining table. Also, don’t mind those troublemakers there.” Lia said.
“Troublemakers?” Elena asked.
“Yeah.” Lia answered and rushed to the kitchen.
Elena wondered who the troublemakers she was talking about were. She was about going in when her phone rang. She went to a corner and answered the call.
“Hi, who is on the line?” She asked.
“It’s me, Levi.” He answered from the other end.
“Sorry, Levi, but I can’t talk now.” She said.
“This is very important, you need to hear it else you might lose your job.” He said.
“Okay, I’m all ears.” She said.
Levi started telling her everything and her countenance changed immediately. After he finished, she thanked him and ended the call. Camille has really gone far this time.
She took her phone and texted Lucas to do some research on Silvia and Julie for her. Then, another on Chris, she needed to meet these three people, so she can know how many enemies she has and how many friends she has.
She sighed and entered the living room. To her surprise, Quinn, Damien, Miguel and Snow were there. They had actually came to study with Miguel but couldn’t leave because of the rain. They all stared at her with their questioning eyes and she gulped in. So, these were the troublemakers, Lia was talking about.
She facepalmed internally. What kind of temptation is this? Why must she come face to face with her sister here?
“Are you gonna continue staring at us or are you gonna come sit down?” Miguel asked and she rolled her eyes. He is still the same.
She ignored their stares and took a seat opposite them. She noticed that, Quinn was just staring at her and not wanting to look away. She tried her best not to look at Quinn.
“What’s your name?” Quinn asked.
“Elena, what’s yours?” Elena asked.
“My name is Quinn, this is Snow, Damien and Miguel.” Quinn introduced and they all waved at her.
“So, why are you in my brother’s house?” Miguel asked.
“I came to return something of his. I am his new personal assistant.” She said and they mouthed an ‘O’
“I must say, Miss Elena, you look beautiful.” Damien said, smiling at her adorably.
“Thanks.” She smiled. Just one year away from these children and they’re already looking different, looking more handsome and beautiful.
“And, she looks a bit like Noel too. I wonder if she behaves like her.” Snow whispered to Quinn, and Quinn smirked.
Quinn tapped Miguel and whispered into his ears. “You know how to annoy Noel right? Try annoying this lady over here. I miss Noel so much and since she looks like Noel, I want to at least witness her acting like Noel, if possible.”
Miguel nodded and smiled then picked up a pillow. Elena knew these kids were up to no good. What have they planned against her now? Maybe if she acts tough, they won’t dare look for her trouble.
Miguel threw a pillow at her and she frowned then glared at him.
“Mind yourself, young man.” She said.
“Why should I mind myself, Miss Elena. Are you jealous of me?” He asked in a way that will annoy her.
“Jealous of you? I can never be jealous of a ¢razy person like you.” She said and they laughed.
“At least I’m ¢razy and cute, but what about you?” Miguel asked.
“Are you trying to say that I’m ugly?” She asked.
“You said it yourself.” Miguel smirked at her.
Elena was annoyed. She took a pillow and threw it at him. The force made him fall off the couch because he was sitting at the edge before.
“Ouch!” He screamed as his bvtt h it the floor.
Elena couldn’t help but burst into laughter with Quinn and the rest.
“¢razy skirt!” Miguel snapped and they laughed at him.
She folded her hands and eyed him before facing the television, making them laugh again.
“It’s all Quinn’s fault that I h it my precious bvtt on the floor.” Miguel said and h it Quinn with a pillow.
