“ What time am I supposed to be served breakfast ? ”
“ Seven in the morning. ” Hilda answers dreading Isabella's next reply or reaction .
“ Come in . ” Isabella orders taking a sharp look at Hilda who steps into her room. She was clad in a white blouse and black skirt . She held the tray of coffee in her hand completely shaking wondering what her boss would do to her this time .
“ Let me have it .” Isabella orders as Hilda quickly placed the saucer which held a mug of hot coffee on the dressing table were she stood . She took a sip her face turning into a frown , she grabs the mug tightly gesturing at Hilda to come closer which she did . She emptied the content of the mug on Hilda's body .
“ You are fired ! ” Isabella spat.
“ Please ma'am , Please I am sorry . ” Hilda pleads going on her knees immediately. Isabella hiss angrily, she disliked the sight of anyone pleading without hesitation she pressed the buzzer on the dressing table and Josh came inside the room .
“ Yes ma ”
“ Take this thing out of my house .” Isabella orders as she walks out of her room gracefully like a Queen will do .
“ To the hospital .” She said to Mike her driver who opens the door for her to settle in before taking his seat at the driver's . She placed her bag beside her , taking her phone to place a phone call to Karen her best friend .
“ Hey ! you at the hospital ?.” Isabella inquires
“ Hi barbie doll .” Karen beams happily over the phone .

“ Head here ,I will run a test to know what is wrong .” Karen answers sharply .
“ ummm .... I have to go now ,I have got a patient to attend to . See you soon . ” Karen said hanging up after Isabella replies a goodbye .
“ Turn on the box . ” Isabella instructs Mike who switches on the stereo system in the car while she close her eyes listening to the cool song from the radio . They had not driven for long when Mike growls loudly bring the car to an immediate halt .
“ What the hell ! ”she cursed a snapping her eyes open . She opens the door stepping out of her G wagon .
“ You driver almost knocked me out splashing dirty water on my pants. ” The young man retorted as Isabella looked at him from head to toe .
“ Were you too blind that you could not see my car coming ? ” she ask rudely taking the man aback.
“ You should not talk to me in such manner , this route was made for pedestrians and not vehicles . ” the young man counters completely pissed off at the manner she spoke .
“ You paupers believe you can play the reverse psychology when you are the one at fault .” Isabella utter frowning her face in pure disgust .
“ You should apologize to me Miss and not take sides with him when he is clearly wrong .” The man who was looking dirty said utterly confused about her attitude .
“ I know your kind ,see to your outfit .” she said handing her black card to him .
“ A simple sorry will do and not this .” The young man said in disdain , he flung her black card into the muddy water , taking his bicycle he rode off splashing a huge deal of mud on Isabella and Mike .

“ That was crazy .” She said aloud wiping herself clean with a wet wipe .
“ What do you say is wrong with you ? ” Karen asked settling on the other side of the couch .
“ I have been feeling nauseous and been throwing up since on Saturday .” Isabella replied Crossing her legs and leaning against the pillow propped against her back .
“ Let us see .” Karen said picking a syringe, she took Isabella's blood sample and handed it to an intern to take it to the laboratory for test .
“ What next ? ” Isabella asks rubbing the spot where Karen pierced with a syringe .
“ wait for the result of the test . ” Karen answers .
“ What other symptoms have you been having ? ” Karen question further
“ Everything suddenly smells awful including my body cologne, I find it difficult to eat too . ” Isabella replies puckering her brows .
“ When last did you see your monthly period ? ”
“ Ummm ..... Last month , why this questions ? ” Isabella snorts flatly
“ from your symptoms I think you are pregnant since you have not seen your period this month . ” Karen states firmly as Isabella eyes bulged out . She shook her head negatively .

“ All I'm saying is I am the CEO I can not be pregnant .I am not even married .” she reminds Karen her best friend.
“ And the crazy sex you had ? ” Karen inquires raising her brows as Isabella eyes shone like she had just seen a ghost .
“ The one night stand ? ” .
