How? I thought you were supposed to travel with…” Levi cut in, “Yeah, but I had a change of mind, there’s nothing to go back to. Why are you here? Are you traveling?” He asked.Bethany yelled with a shaky voice, “No! I came to stop you from traveling.”“Why, I thought you didn’t want to see me?” Levi asked rather surprised.“Who told you that?”“I called you several times but you weren’t taking my calls so I thought… wait! You’re not mad at me?“Of course not, who said I was? My ring volume was muted so all the while I didn’t hear my phone ring. I just needed some time to think, and clear my head so I’d kno

In a short while, they were both ready for the party, as they walked out through the front door, a chauffeur, neatly dressed in black and white pulled open the door of a matte black Rolls Royce.“After you,” Levi said to Bethany as he stood aside and waited for her to get in first, and then he followed suit.“Why did you get a chauffeur, we would have just walked it’s such a short distance,” she said.“You can’t possibly think of walking looking like this. I can’t risk it.”“Wow, this place is beautiful look the lighting and the lighting,” she said as she admired from across the wind shield.Hardly have they stepped in, a woman caught sight of Bethany, she looked stunning and so the woman walked up to pay her complements, ‘wow, you look great, so beautiful.” She said in admiration.“Such kind word, thank you” she responded.“Do you mind if I take a picture?

“Eeeh,” Joe the MC stuttered even more, he couldn’t find the right words to ask that question because of how the guests might react.“You don’t have to answer that,” Levi said, as he walked close to where they were.“It’s okay my love.

“I told you that woman was putting on an act,” Levi said sounding very furious. He dropped his phone onthe table and sat on the bed while he tried to unbutton his shirt.“What did he say,” Bethany inquired as she rushed to him.“That witch woke up halfway to the hospital, said she was okay and didn’t need to see the doctor”.“What? That woman is so sly. How dare she do that? She ruined the party for everyone, and to think Ieven felt sorry for her?” she said in utter disgust as she still couldn’t believe Natalie will go that far tohurt them.Lisa paced up and down the room, and frequently looked at the clock.

Her numbers aren’t even going through.”As she paced and soliloquized, thinking of her next line of action, the doorbell rang.“Ding Dong…”“That should be Natalie; she rushed to the door to
