Chapter Thirteen
Nina's POV
"Your Royal Highness beautiful ma, maybe it was not me you saw"
"Yes, dear. I never forget faces and it's against the law to lie to the Queen "
"Sorry for majesty, are you was me but everything has an
explanation.." I tried defending myself.
"It's okay," She cupped my face, "You owe no one an explanation..."
I nodded slowly avoiding Carlos eyes which were stuck between me and his mother.
"Carlos dear, your sister and sister in law are arriving in a ten minutes so you are needed
downstairs and please get Stefan too.." She smiled and walked down stairs...
"You don't believe your mother about me being in your brother's room right?" I asked him halting
1 don't krnow. You two barely get along"
"I didn't want to tell yo
Chapter FourteenStefan's POVI hate mondays but I had to work very hard or else my competitors would take advantage of that.Carlos came home late so I went to check on him in his room. It was 7am and he still looked like he had been ran over by a truck.I covered him up and went to the kitchen where i found Nina roosleeping on the counter She too looked like she had been ran over by a truck. Where we these two yesterday? I hope Carlos wasn't falling for this crazy mud girl.I always loved to prepare my breakfast.I had the mentality that no one would understand my stommach more than me.I tried making noise with the cooking pans while I was cooking but she didn't wake up!even placed a piece of bacon on her lips but she just bit it and continued sleeping.Damn!She was indeed a heavy sleeper. I didn't want to ruin her beauty sleep but I ated people who were unprofessional."Wake up!" I screamed in
Chapter FifteenNina's POVI was still in shock of what had happened in Stefan's officeI didn't like the direction he wanted my life to take. I couldn't stand him as a human being how would leven think about dating him?Thinking about the kiss and him made me Wanna throw up..He was nothing like his grey and black themed bedroom which had a king sized bed with table lamps on each side,Recessed lights on the ceiling, a staircase book shelf, a walking in closet with mirrors on its door, and the unique furniture pieces that complemented the room. Yes it was a beautiful room for a selfish man."measurement?" Princess Elsa asked the moment I got into the mansion."No, your brother was busy " I whispered "What?""Do you know how much the part
Chapter SixteenNina's POVWe were busy doing the final touches on the sketches that we were supposed to be used to make princess Ella's dress when I heard a commotion in the living room.Obvious it was the spoilt brat creating some drama. You know dramatic brat should be her name.But it was none of my business, her brothers could handle her.Well, that's what I thought until Jennifer came to fetch me.And guess what, Jennifer had the audacity to slap a stupid question on my face."Where is Ella's diamond ring?"Did you fall and hit your head?" I asked her.Jennifer dear this is not the way to solve this matter. Maybe the ring is somewhere in her room"The Queen mother tried to be civil and realistic."No your Highness mother, one is not supposed to be linient with thieves..." Jennifer retorted."Can someone please brief me on what is going on? Thief, diamond and me...""You stole princess Ella's diamond ring..." J
Chapter SeventeenNina's POVI know you all think that I am heartbroken and spent the whole night crying.Dears that's where you are wrong.I have never slept so peaceful .You know why? Yes i was called a thief but I wasn't ready to let that define me..But I was going to make them beg for my forgiveness.No one messes with Nina Harlad, no one insults her in public apart from her parents and that's is if I deserve it.I woke up and stretched myself out when my phone begun ringing.Guess what it was my mummy. I jump up and down excitedly but my joy was short-lived when I remembered the scandal in the newspaper and blogs . I know my sister must have told her the exaggerated version of the story."Hey mama..." I stammered."Hello my dear..." She whispered."Am sorry about the story you have heard. I swear I didn't want to embarrass you and Papa..." I stuttered."Don't cry.I just wanted to know how you are after your sister
Chapter EighteenNina's POVI kept my word.It's not that I would have quit my job, it was just a smart move that would make Carlos force the arrogant man to ask for forgiveness.No need to brag but the musician needs me.He is obsessed with my work and that one hell of a weakness fellas.For the past one week, I was so busy trying to finish up with princess Ella's dress and also prince Carlos sneaking into the studio once in a while to steal a kiss. Its not like it bothered me, I loved the way we acted like teenagers in love.Everyone acted normal after the theft incident, The Queen made sure I always made me coffee at four o'clock and Jennifer atleast faked civilisation.Finally Friday was here, I was done with Sophie's dress.I couldn't wait to get home and take care of the tired me."Done with work?" Carlos wrapped his arms around me from behind."Someone could see us...""I don't care..." I wanted to move away but my body was in a
Chapter NineteenCarlos's POVI know when describing Nina I should used the word beautiful, talk about her hourglass figure, her night deep mysterious eyes but those didn't matter to me.The beauty in a woman is her intelligent personality and confidence.Nina had a spirit that could soar and that to me was attractive than any colour or shape in the universe.After Diana left I thought all was lost. I thought my heart would never beat for another. But then I saw Nina being interviewed, she wasn't the kind of a girl who would shy away from critisms, she knew critisms was one of the ingredients for success.People said she had an attitude but to me it was more of creating limits to how far things and people can go.I needed that kind of a woman in my life. My career needed an alpha woman who would hold my hand when the storms came my way and she was that.In her Instagram posts, my eyes always fell to her hand to look for rings since she nev
Chapter TwentyNina's POVI was shocked, words were stuck on my throat. Suddenly my knees were as weak as cooked noodles.I knew, the dress was from Stefan but how was I to get myself from this mess. I finally have things going right with Carlos and I didn't want to mess that up.Carlos's face was scrunching with anger."What is this dress?""How should I know?" I replied coldly. I could feel my world crumbling down."It's an expensive dress." He raised his eyebrows in surprise."Yeah and I can't afford it...""Are you sure you have no suitors? Because I don't get why it is on your bed..."God get me out of this mess and I promise I will try not to be so rude."Are you calling me a sl-t? Yes you are calling me a slut . How am I supposed to know about this dress?I was with you to Maasai Mara." I rose my voice.I know I didn't have to but I had to make him feel bad to forget about the dress."Baby, you are putting words in m
Chapter Twnety OneNina's POVIt was on a Tuesday, three days to Jennifer's grand welcome ball.I had called in sick at work since I needed time to figure out my life.I had a well thought out plan in my mind of how I was going to get out of this mess, even went ahead to set an alarm at 7am, wrote in my diary every detail of the plan but guess what I woke up at 11am.Where was the motivation to fix this mess? Under the table perhaps.I got out of bed, cooked some noodles and lazily sat on the sofa watching Netflix.The house was kinda boring, Lucy was out looking for a job whereas William had gone on a business trip with his boss and so I was home alone.My eyes were stuck on the television when I heard a knock at the door. At first I thought I was hallucinating until the knocks became loud and constant.My eyes were stuck on the television when I heard a knock at the door.
