Billion Dollar Deal.

"I worked hard for the money I own and all the wealth I've acquired, I don't depend on luck or any other crazy stuff you believe in, let me clear you on something, despite this little feat you've achieved, one thing is still crystal clear to everyone in New York, that I'm better than you, richer than you, more successful than you and even physically, I'm naturally endowed unlike some people who prefer plastic surgery"Mona replied.

"Leave my surgery out of this!!" Susanna yelled, already pissed and it made Monalisa smirk.

Marcus and Priyanka stood at the back, watching the drama. Especially Marcus and he definitely was on team Monalisa.

"Gosh, why is this ride taking longer, the tension here is unbearable". Priyanka muttered inwardly and like the door heard her, the elevator stopped. Susanna stepped out first but stopped and faced Monalisa.

"You think you're a queen and so mighty because you're rich, I promise that I will get to your level soon and then we will know who's living a better life and who's the complete woman, you and your endowed body can go to hell with every fucking person that thinks you're better than me. I may not be better than you in anything but at least I'm a great mother, I love and adore my daughter as I should, too bad you can't relate." She smirked before walking away.

Priyanka was just shaking her head as she watched Monalisa balled her fists angrily, but she calmed down soon and walked out while Marcus and the secretary followed suit.

[An ice-cream store]

Zoey and Alora were returning from the ice-cream shop.

"Ice-cream was definitely not part of the tutorial". Zoey laughed with Alora.

"Yes ma'am, next time I won't force you to come get ice-cream but you must agree that this flavor tastes good right?" She asked as Zoey nodded.

They both turned when they heard a voice shouting "basketball"

Probably to find out who was bearing such a name, when the guy got closer, Alora recognized him as Allen, he ran to her and smiled.

"Hi". He said, breathing heavily, he has been running after them for a while.

"Remember me? we met at the beach". He smiled again and stretched his hands for a handshake.

"Wait, so I am the one you were calling basketball!" Alora yelled, already pissed, Zoey smiled as she watched them. They really look cute.

"Umm, i'm sorry just that you didn't tell me your..." Allen tried to explain, but Alora angrily walked away, he made to go after her but Zoey stopped him.

"You're so cute," she said as she gently pulled his cheeks.

"Thanks ma'am”. He stuttered,

"But you made a mistake, no girl likes the name basketball, it isn't nice". She said while she turned to check how far Alora had gone.

"I didn't mean to call your daughter that, I'm sorry, just wanted to talk to her, I don't even know why I called her that". Allen explained but Zoey was already happy he called Alora her daughter.

"No problem,I have to go now but next time when you see her, call her Alora, that's her name". She said and ran after her.

"Thanks ma'am". He said, but Zoey was already gone.

……..

At the Dynamo hall, Mr Sky cleared his throat and started speaking.

"I guess we are complete so let me begin". He said as he made to stand but Susanna interrupted as she stood up.

"No need to stress yourself sir, you've been saying this for five years straight so let me help you today to address Mrs Jerkins so that we can focus on our trivial matters," she started

"So Mrs Jerkins, it's appears to us that you are here to buy the fashion house but as always, you've failed to meet up to the requirements of getting the house which is becoming a member of the club-one trillion, so since you have to failed to accomplish that this year, I'm afraid your request can't be granted please leave and come back next year when you've finally fulfilled the requirements "Susanna smiled as she sat down. Monalisa's eyes were so red as she imagined how good it would feel to strangle her.

"Susanna please only talk when you are allowed to talk". Mr Sky said as he faced Monalisa.

"Mrs Jerkins I apologize on behalf of this egoistic woman for her nonchalant behavior and irresponsible choice of words, also pay no heed to all she said because it's false". He added.

"False?" Monalisa and Susanna's voices came together in confusion while Priyanka remained quiet and allowed her eyes to entertain her.

Mr Sky cleared his throat again "Well everything she said was true till this morning, your PA handled it all”. He said with all smiles.

Then he whispered to a confused Mona, "he's a good one, don't lose him"

"Ooh this is what he meant by drama, Marcus"Priyanka said inwardly as she smiled.

"Sir, are you sure it's my PA? So he got me a billion dollar deal, how?"Mona asked confused while Mr Sky chuckled.

Marcus went to the restroom earlier.

"You can ask him when he is back". He said as Marcus walked in immediately, he stopped as he looked around, the eyes that were staring at him made him stop on his tracks.

Priyanka's eyes were telling him good job, Susanna's eyes were glaring hard and he felt like she wanted to stab him. Mr Sky's eyes were filled with delight and happiness while Monalisa's eyes, although her eyes were blank, it was as if he could read through and geez, he tried to hide the fact that what he read was scary as he sat down beside her.

"So Mr Marcus,your boss here is still confused at how you got her into the club one-trillion,care to explain?"he asked while Marcus laughed

"Nice one sir, that's a good joke...we secured the deal together, my boss and I, so there's no way she will be confused about it, infact she did most of the job herself, I was only a helper monkey, right boss?” He asked.

"Right". Mona replied and flashed him a fake smile

……….

[ELITE'S ESTATE]

"Come on...he didn't mean it"Zoey said as they got home.

"Yeah, he doesn't know my name and out of all the names in the universe, he chose to call me a basketball...very funny". Alora rolled her eyes and muttered.

"But he's cute". Zoey teased her as they got in

"O.M.G" Alora screamed when she saw Karen, her bestie, they both hugged and screamed dramatically while Zoey made her way to the kitchen.

"You said you were coming tomorrow, what happened?" Alora asked

"yeah, but I wanted to surprise you". Karen chuckled and said.

"I love it!!! Alora screamed as they both hugged again, "girls, come and have lunch". Zoey called from the kitchen.

"Let's go," Karen said.

"I'll tell you about the dumb ass that called me a basketball today," Alora said as they walked to the kitchen.

"No way!" Karen gasped.
