Chapter 42 The Stubborn Beatrice
Nalzen
I wake up feeling drained and exhausted but I’m still happy being by Aaron’s side.
It’s a mind-blowing pleasurable experience with him. Wake up with the smell of the sea and the freshness of the air. This is a dream come true. But I know that we need to wake up and face reality.
Z Fashion will soon be launched and I need to prepare everything perfectly. My dream fashion show will now come to life and it’s because of Aaron again. He is always supportive of everything that I do and what I like.
Now tell me, who could have not fallen for him?
I’m falling deeply as of this moment. When he’s gone, I don’t know what will happen to me. I love him so much but still, I don’t know if he loves me or not. And I don’t want to hear the answer. I’m afraid! Afraid of being rejected by someone I love so dearly.
I kiss his lips gently. And he wakes up.
“Morning Wifey.” She greeted me smiling. That smile captivated my heart!
“Morning sleepyhead, we need to go home hubby,” I answered.
He pulled me closer into his arms.
“Later, let’s cuddle for a minute.” He said and kiss my hair.
I hug him and feel the moment of being with him. Another unforgettable memory…
*********************************
After our beach getaway. I’m back in the reality. There are so many things that need to be done as soon as possible. And I’am running out of time.
We are in the middle of a meeting when my secretary whisper in my ear.
“Ma’am, Sir Nathan is here and wanted to join the meeting.” She said.
Oh! Nathan went out of the hospital already?
“Let him come in,” I answered.
Nathan comes in smiling at everyone. He’s one of the investors in this project. I understand if he wanted to check what’s going on with the plan. He just sitting quietly in the corner listening to our conversation. He looks satisfied and he didn’t object even once and everything seems fine with him. We are about to finish our meeting when the door forcefully opens.
And there she is, the pain in everybody’s head. Beatrice!
“Am I late?” She asked happily.
I don’t want her on the launching day but I know that I can’t do that. She will always insist as stubborn as she is. She will always say that she owns 90% of their company with Nathan. I know that she’s here to ruin my day.
Just wondering if Miss De Leon already filed a case against her.
“What are you doing in here? The meeting is about to finish. I told you that I will be in charge of everything.”Nathan said a little bit angry with his voice.
I know that he’s controlling his temper while forming his hand into a fist.
How unlucky of him to be bound with Beatrice! Spending the rest of your life with that attitude of her. There’s a divorce but I know Nathan can’t do that. His father is thirsty for power and wealth. So, he will sacrifice.
“Just checking if you truly handling everything honey. Not handling someone!” Then she looks at me disgustingly.
I just rolled my eyes at her. I know that I need to be careful, she’s like a psycho. You can’t predict what’s on her mind.
“Stop it! There are so many busy people here. If you can’t behave, you better go home.” Nathan scolded her in a lower voice.
But she just smiles.
“I don’t care. I will not go home and will wait for you, honey.”Then she smiles wickedly.
Nathan just takes a deep breath trying to calm his body and mind.
“Okay, as you wish.” He answered instead.
The preggy b*tch is very happy. She’s just sitting in there, looking at you creepily. Good thing that we are about to be finished and I will not see her face anymore.
But I was wrong! She never left and stayed.
“What can I do for you? I’m busy as of the moment and don’t have time for your none sense tantrums!” I told her.
But she just laugh loudly.
“Don’t you think that you can defeat me easily? Dear Nalzen!” She mocked the endearment of Nathan and me.
“This is what I told you before. You are talking nonsense. You are crazy, please go home.” I said calmly.
I need to be calm.
Patience Nalzen…
“Huh! Don’t you think that you can turn me down because of a warrant from the court? You’re wrong, I’am more than powerful than you!” She laughs again.
What is she talking about?
Wait, Is she talking about Miss De Leon?
“I don’t know what you are talking about. Leave me alone!” I shouted angrily. But she’s very stubborn to make you lose your patience.
“Ah, you’re playing innocent. Then, who give Miss De Leon the money to sue me in court? Oh! It’s your rich Boyfriend Aaron! But he can never defeat me!” She said angrily.
From a smiling face, she finally showed her true self as a monster.
But how did she know all about it?
Did Miss De Leon tell her? But that’s Impossible unless…
” What did you do to Miss De Leon?” I ask worriedly.
Then she laughs again.
“Hahaha, What do you think?” She ask and smiled wickedly at me.
Creep crawl down my spine. She looks like a monster. How can she do it? And she’s pregnant! She’s supposed to behave and take good care of her baby but instead, she’s doing evilness.
Then my phone rang and it was Aaron.
“Yes, hubby?” I answered.
“Where are you?” He asked worriedly.
“I’m still here at the office,” I said.
“Is Beatrice there?” He asked.
I looked at Beatrice whose face is unpredictable.
“Yes,” I answered shortly.
“That bitch! Wait for me in there and call your secretary to be with you.” Aaron said. He sounds nervous and angry at the same time!
“Okay, I will call her inside,” I answered.
“Beware of that demon bitch. Be careful.” He reminded me before ending the call.
What is happening? What the hell did Beatrice do again?
“Your lover?” She asked sarcastically.
“He is my husband. NOT my Lover!” I answered in disgust.
“Oops, you are dreaming my Dear?” She asks laughing.
She always calls me Dear which irritates me. But I need to be calm and have patience. We are dealing with a psycho bitch!
I dialed the intercom and let my secretary come in.
“Yes ma’am?” She asks smiling.
“Oh, help me with these papers,” I answered.
“Sure!” And she sits down with me. And Beatrice is still there looking at us creepily.
Just what the hell is going on?
“You don’t like to go home? I guess Nathan won’t come back.” I told her.
“Yeah, he won’t come back. Ever!” She said smirking.
What did she mean by that?
Whatever! She won’t leave then let her be. I will wait for Aaron then we will leave.
Moments later, Aaron arrives. Looked at Beatrice angrily.
“You better hide well, Beatrice. The moment I will catch you. It’s the end of all.” Aaron said gritting his teeth.
And Beatrice laughs evilly.
“Hahaha, I’am good at playing hide and seek. You will never catch me.” She laughs again.
Wonder if her mouth is not tired from laughing. Just hoping that the baby on her stomach is doing well.
“Let’s go, Wifey.” Aaron drag me outside and Beatrice was left in there.
On the way, I texted my secretary to keep all the necessary and important files for the launch of Z Fashion.
We are now at Aaron’s car. He still looks serious and angry.
“Hubby, What happened?” I asked curiously.
“Miss De Leon is missing after she files a case against Beatrice at the court.”He sighed.
“Where is she?” I asked.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
“I don’t know! My Bodyguards didn’t see her go out of the court. They waited until night and Miss De Leon did not appear. I asked inside, but Miss De Leon didn’t file a case at all. She’s gone for good. Or someone is hiding her?” Aaron asked furrowing his brows.
I felt nervous upon hearing all of this.
“I hope that Miss De Leon is okay and safe.” I honestly said but I have a bad feeling about it!
“Tsk! Beatrice is damn clever. But I will surely catch her no matter what!” Aaron said angrily.
“How can you be so sure that it’s Beatrice’s doing?” I ask confused.
“It’s her, I’m sure about it!” He answered surely.
“What do we need to do now?” I ask nervously.
“We should play her game and act as natural and innocent as possible.” Aaron Smirk.
Although I didn’t understand I need to play along. Aaron is doing his best for my safety. I know about it. But I don’t know why I’m always unlucky. Even if I did nothing wrong. They are very angry and jealous of me.
I understand that Beatrice loves Nathan. But she’s very jealous and possessive! The other fact is that Nathan didn’t love her at all.
Somehow I can understand her but she’s pushing herself too much that she didn’t notice what she’s doing wrong.
“Hope that Miss De Leon is okay,” I answered.
Hope everything will be okay!
