Chapter 76

Noel looked at how Dennis opened his mouth wide because of shock and scoffed.

“Close that mouth, we are not training hippopotamuses here.” She said and dragged Lucas to the dance floor, leaving Dennis transfixed on the spot.

Dennis blinked twice and gasped.

“No girl has ever said No to me but she did and embarrassed me too. She really has some guts, dmn!” He smacked his forehead.

His anger boiled more when he saw her taking Lucas to the dance floor. Wait… Is she trying to tell him that Lucas was more handsome and good looking? What about him? She called him ugly, is he really ugly?

“Let it go, dude.” Annabella patted his shoulder.

“That’s not possible, she chose your brother over me.” Dennis frowned.

“That shouldn’t worry you, there are tons of beautiful ladies here. Look over there, Rose, the senator’s youngest daughter is here. I heard that she likes guys with your kind of personality.” Annabella said.

Dennis turned and saw the girl, she was beautiful but not more than the lady who insulted him minutes ago.

“Meh! I’ll manage.” He said, arranged his outfit and went to meet her.

Just as Annabella said, she welcomed him and he took her to the dance floor.

“Yes! No one gets sad in my party.” Annabella smiled before leaving.

.

At the dance floor, Lucas couldn’t stop the butterflies dancing in his belly while waltzing with Noel. It felt really good, he was somehow shy as well because this was the first time he was dancing with a lady like this and not just any lady, a pretty one at that.

“So, tell me more about yourself.” Noel requested.

“You want to know more about me?” He asked.

“Yeah, I can’t have a bestie without getting to know him.” She smiled.

“You’re right. Well, I’m 23 years old, a graduate of Technology and computer science from Emerald University in America. I am not really good at starting up conversations with people.” He said.

“Yeah, I noticed.” She smiled.

“I am also a bit shy around ladies but somehow, I’m cool with you.” He said.

“That’s cool.”

“Yeah, I love martial arts a lot because that’s where I can be myself, where I can come out of my shell and do whatever I want to do. I also like to eat spaghetti tacos.” He said.

“Your personality is unique.” She said and he blushed.

“Thanks. So, how about you?” He asked.

“Like you already know and you’ve witnessed, I’m an extrovert who loves to have fun and doesn’t act her age. I adore my friends alot and can do anything to protect and defend them including getting into trouble with lousy Billionaire children.” She said and they laughed.

“You’re amazing. Your fiance is lucky to have you, I’m really jealous of him. I wish I had met you before he did.” Lucas said.

“Don’t worry, you’ll find someone much more better than I am and who suits your kind of person very well.” Noel said.

“I hope so.” He sighed and they continued dancing.

Annabella sat by a corner and watched them. She wished Noel was single,she would have made her fall in love with her brother uncontrollably but what can she do now that Noel is engaged. The first lady her brother fell in love with is engaged, so funny! She could remember how he stayed with her when she was unconscious, talking and petting her,even when he knew that she couldn’t hear him.

“Is she your brother’s girlfriend?” Tasha, her best friend asked.

“No, they’re just best friends.” Annabella replied.

“They should date, they look perfect together.” Tasha said.

“They can’t date, Tasha.” Annabella said.

“Why?” Tasha asked, her Curiosity had already been ignited.

“Tasha, I’ll be travelling to San Diego tomorrow.” Annabella said, and as expected, Tasha’s attention was drawn immediately. She looked at Annabella and frowned.

“What about our exams?” She asked.

“I met with Principal Sonia, she allowed me to write all my papers in her office.” Annabella said.

“Tell me what questions were asked.” Tasha said.

“No way, if I tell you now, you aren’t gonna read so I won’t tell me. Besides, I have forgotten most of them.” Annabella smirked and Tasha pouted.

“Hi, Anna.” Jay, one of the most cutest boys in her school waved at her.

She scoffed and looked away.

“Anna, Jay is waving at you.” Tasha said.

“So?” She rolled her eyes.

“What! A guy who all the girls in school are dying for is waving at you and you’re trying to ignore him?” Tasha was shocked.

“That’s none of my business.” Anna said and stood up to leave.

Jay drew her back and made her look at him.

“Did I offend you in any way?” He asked.

She tried to open her mouth but words failed her. She couldn’t say anything but kept staring at him, why must he allow her look into his eyes? She has been avoiding that because whenever she did, she would lose focus immediately and it would be hard for her to think. On top of that, her heartbeat would increase at a surprisingly fast rate.

Tasha stood up and dragged her from him.

“Is she okay?” Jay asked.

“Yeah, I guess.” Tasha replied.

Annabella came into her senses and gasped.

“Who asked you to touch me?” She snapped at him.

“I’m sorry, I was only trying to tell you that I’ll be traveling to San Diego with my mum tomorrow. I overheard you talking with Tasha so, I decided to tell you too, maybe we could board same plane.” He said.

“Why?” She asked, looked away and smiled.

“Um… Because…” He trailed off.

“Let it be, I understand.” She said and walked away.

Jay looked at Tasha, Tasha smiled and shrugged.

SAN DIEGO

THE MALL

Camille was at the mall, she was buying some baby stuff with the credit card Gray had given her. Gray made that card her own so that she could take care of the baby and stop pestering his life.

She would choose one and the nanny would put it in the shopping trolley.

Julie (Eun Soo) and Marie stood at a corner and watched them.

“I’m not even surprised that she got pregnant. What is surprising me is that,she didn’t ab©rt the baby this time.” Julie said.

“You mean, she has aborted a baby before?” Marie asked.

“She has not aborted a baby but has aborted babies. I’m still shocked at why her womb is still working and isn’t clogged right now.” Julie said.

“Such innocent babies.” Marie shook her head.

“Yeah and for her not to have aborted this one, it means that she is using it for something and I’m going to find out. Just look at her, smiling while she left many families in sorrow.” Julie said.

“It’s up to you to make her pay then.” Marie said.

“Yeah.” Julie smirked.

Camille turned to the left and saw Julie, the diaper she held in her hands fell down immediately. She blinked and looked again but didn’t see her there.

“I could swear I saw Julie right now. But, that can’t be possible, I klled her,” She muttered.”Maybe I was hallucinating.”

She turned to the right and saw her again. She gasped.

“What is it ma?” The nanny asked.

“Let’s go home immediately.” Camille didn’t bother to buy anything, she dragged the nanny outside and they left.

Marie laughed.

“This is just the beginning and she is already freaked out like this.” Marie said.

Julie chuckled. “That means that she would die if she sees me with a gvn.”

Marie laughed again.

“Wait! You’re Julie right?” Silvia asked.

“Yes, I am.” Julie answered.

“Thank goodness! I found you. My name is Silvia, Teresa’s friend and room mate. ” Silvia said.

“Oh yeah! She used to tell me things about you. How you two got fired from Gray’s company and so on.” Julie said.

“Yeah, I’m the one. Please, I returned from Miami weeks ago and someone told me that Teresa is dead. I really can’t comprehend what’s going on, please are you aware?” Silvia asked.

Julie sighed. “Let’s go sit somewhere, I’ll tell you everything.”

Silvia nodded and they located the nearest restaurant where they sat down.

.

Julie narrated all that happened to her and she found herself crying.

“So, my assumptions were right. I warned her, didn’t I? I told her that, Camille would kill her if she found out but she was bent on doing whatever she wanted.” Silvia said.

“Stop crying, Silvia. This is not a time to start blaming her, she is already dead and we both know that she didn’t die naturally. What we should be doing now is planning on how to make Camille pay for her atrocities.” Julie said.

“Yeah, you’re right. Camille can’t get away with this, do you have any plan in mind?” Silvia asked and Julie chuckled.

THE NEXT DAY

AN ESTATE

Noel,Lucas and Annabella rolled their luggages into the house. Monica had already prepared everything for their arrival.

It was hard before she allowed them to come to San Diego. She would have followed them but the company needs her.

“Dude! Your mother is a genius. The house is amazing, it’s the biggest in this estate.” Noel squealed.

“Yeah.” Lucas agreed.

“Off to my room! I’m getting the most beautiful one.” Annabella said.

“No worries, mum made each room to everyone’s taste so go find yours.” Lucas said.

Annabella smiled and ran upstairs.

Noel looked around, everything, starting from the couches, the TV, the center table and other interior designs were captivating.

She went to her room and dropped her bags, took her bath and wore clean clothes. She wore a trouser and white crop top with sneakers then looked at herself in the standing mirror.

She looked a bit different now, thanks to the mask but her beauty was not concealed. She trimmed her hair and dyed the ending red, giving her a bada$s look.

She alighted the stairs.

“I’m going for a stroll, I miss San Diego so much.” She said.

“Should I come with you?” Lucas asked.

“Don’t worry, I’ll be fine.” She smiled.

“Alright, better leave before Annabella comes downstairs and also be back early.” He smiled.

“Sure.” She smiled back and strode out of the house.

She came out of the estate and walked farther a little bit then saw Gray’s house. She smiled, she personally told Monica that she wanted a place that would be close to his house. The house hasn’t changed a bit. She looked at her wristwatch, it was not 7pm yet meaning that Gray was still at work. She was really dying to see him.

She walked the Streets and saw a mall. She entered and to her surprise, Camille was there. The bçh hasn’t changed a bit except that she looked a bit fàtter than before. She could sense that there was an argument between Camille and the cashier.

She walked over to see what’s up.

“Ma’am, I can’t lie to you, the total of the money you spent here today is ten thousand dollars.” The cashier said.

“You’re a thief, how can these little things that didn’t even reach half of the trolley cost ten thousand dollars? Stop trying to cheat me.” Camille yelled.

“I’m saying the truth.” The cashier said.

Camille saw a hand stretch forward with a card.

“I’m paying for that, let the woman go. I’m sure she doesn’t even have a dollar in her account, that’s why she is making excuses.” Noel said.

The cashier collected the card and made the payment before returning it to Noel.

Camille couldn’t believe her ears.

She looked up and her gaze met with that of Noel.

She gasped but shook her head, she hasn’t met this person before.

“Who do you think you are?” Camille yelled at her.

Noel scrunched up her eyebrows.

“Eww! Please close that mouth, it stinks. Don’t use your mouth odour to kll me because I tried to help you. Jeez! Did you even brush today?” Noel asked and didn’t wait for an answer before walking away.

Camille stood there in shock.

“My mouth stinks?” She asked herself while staring at Noel’s back.
