She furrowed her brows at their actions, seeing them not making way for her, she panicked even more, thinking they didn't believe everything she just told them.

She dug her nails in her palms, trying not to show them she was affected in any way, while she makes some little prayers.

'Is she trying to play games with me, just to uncover the truth'

At that instant her legs felt lame, she thought of all possible idea to flew out from the scene, but nothing positive was coming into her head, which made her panic even more.

If all this was a nightmare, she wants to wake up, she thought.

And suddenly an idea flash into her head, and she smiles, gaining more confidence to stand up to the reporters.

"Fine, if you would like to wait for him, go ahead and do it, wait while he comes to pick me up. But before he comes, I need to quickly use the restroom, I will be back, so excuse me" She said confidently surprise at her outburst.

And just like excepted she was able to deceive them, they affirmed to her request.

"Okay, go ahead while we wait here." A pale tan skin man responded.

She quickly hurried back into the villa and made use of her phone.

She scrolls through her contact trembling and dialed her girlfriend's contact. Luckily, she picked up in one ring.

"Hello Cakey, you need to help me, you have to come help me now please." She breathe out at once in a confuse state.

"Okay, calm down, calm down and talk to me, where do you want me to come save you, what are you talking about?"

"I don't have much time to explain, I will tell you everything once we meet, but for now, you have to quickly come save me."

"Okay now, where are you? Where are my coming to save you?"

"I'm at the billionaire's villa, the one that's rumored to be disfigured." Sharon said, and cakey's phone almost fell to the floor.

Without waiting for her response, Sharon hung up, she had full certainty that her friend is going to show up, she wouldn't leave her here.

Sharon inhaled and exhaled thrice to calm her racing heart. Dhe shook off her fear and with a slow steady stride, she dashes outside towards the group of reporters.

Immediately she strode out of the gate, her gaze landed on an old man standing beside a Roy Royce with a tight-lipped smile on his face.

She was perplexed at first, seeing how he was looking at her, and smiling. This was her first time she had come across him, but the way he smiles at her, it was like he had known her for a long time.

"Sharon?" He asked and she bobbed her head in response.

"Please come into the car, I'm here to pick you for a night snack with your fiancé John."

The group of reporters were astound. Sharon didn't know what to do, but instead of staying in the group of reporters, it was better to go with him.

"You wouldn't want to keep him waiting, hurry, I have to drop you off." The old man added.

"Oh yes, thank you." She responded and leisurely stride to the entrance of the car.

She hopped into the car, and they flew out of the scene, leaving the reporters to their curiosity.
