Miranda Duran, a 22-year-old orphan, was a sight to behold. A typical ordinary female who is well-known for her clumsiness in everyday situations. She had recently completed her undergraduate studies at a community college. Andrew Templeton, an egotistical billionaire, was the first person she met on that day. However, in a ridiculous situation.
The Templeton brothers were dubbed "the rich Nasty Billionaires" in their hometown of Las Vegas. They were obscenely wealthy and ruthless in their pursuit of power. There was nothing they wouldn't do to get what they wanted.
Miranda stood on the pedestrian lane, searching for a cab. It was raining outside, and she wanted to go home. She saw a Lamborghini approaching her at high speed; she was able to escape being hit by the automobile, but it splattered dirt water all over her body. She was so irritated and enraged that she hurled a stone at the car, shattering the window, because the driver didn't bother stopping to apologize.
A man dressed in a black suit emerged from the entryway and opened the passenger door. Another man emerges, and Miranda swears a spit emerges from her mouth. He was wearing a crimson tuxedo and black eyeglasses, and she could see his biceps popping out. His face was faultless and a perfection. He exuded a sense of affluence. He was devilishly gorgeous, and as he moved up to her majestically, she could feel the air around her becoming colder.
Her breath became stuck in her throat almost instantly.
She was in a lot of difficulty. Because she lacked the funds to pay for the car, she instantly fell on her knees as the man approached her front door. In this case, instead of the man pleading, it was she who was begging.
" Please accept my heartfelt apologies... " She implored, but his gaze remained fixed on her. Her skin shivered in his proximity.
" You must pay for the vehicle." He said sharply
"I don't have any cash with me at the moment. Please accept my heartfelt apologies." She apologized but he grabbed her wrist and drew her closer to him. As his hands made touch with her, she whimpered and felt a spark! Her legs trembled.
She exclaimed as she looked at his face, which was getting closer to her; his eyes were brownish but deep down had a lot of secrets in them. He continued staring at her as if scrutinizing her face, like he was looking for something, which Miranda found perplexing and unsettling.
" Do you have any idea how much the Lamborghini you smashed was worth?" He made her whimper as he tightened his grasp on her hands.
" Please accept my heartfelt apologies, sir. "I was enraged when you sprayed dirt water all over my body. Her clothing was now wet from the rain coming from the sky, so she begged.
" I want a new vehicle." He stated his case.
"How come you can't accept an apology?! "I've already apologized to you." Miranda was becoming irritated by her constant begging. Why is he requesting a new automobile if he appears to be wealthy?
" You're going to have to pay." He said sharply
" I don't have any money," she says. She responded.
" As a woman, you have the option of paying with your body." With his attention drawn to her undisclosed breast, he said. Miranda grimaced; this man appeared to be a pervert.
" Please let me go."
Miranda screamed, attempting to free her wrist from his grip, but he dragged her towards the car instead.
"Allow me to depart. I'm going to contact the authorities." She yelled angrily.
She realized she couldn't get him to drive her to his car since she didn't have any money, so she did what she had to do: she kicked him in the crotch, causing him to fall to his knees and groan in pain. She didn't expect him to pursue her after she kicked him so hard, so she started running as fast as her legs could carry her till she spotted a cab, waved at it, and got in. She took a big breath and breathed deeply when she realized she had lost him and was safe.
When she returned home, she told her friend about her experience with the man, and Claudia couldn't help but be astounded that her clumsy friend hurled a stone at a very expensive Lamborghini because the driver sprayed some dirty mud water on her cheap clothing.
"What did you do? "Do you have any idea how much a Lamborghini costs?" Claudia sneered.
"I don't give a damn. "I put aside $500 only to purchase this gown for my interview the next day, and he damaged it." She scowled and rolled her eyes as she crossed her arms.
" Take it seriously! Because he spilled filthy water on your $500 gown, you ruined a Lamborghini worth $15 million. He has the power to put you in jail. "I'm sure that dude is incredibly wealthy." Claudia let out a sigh.
"I didn't wreck the automobile." It was simply a minor scratch, and he made it a huge fuss for me to pay for his car." She stated sarcastically.
" I'm hoping he doesn't come after you." Claudia sighed as she entered the kitchen.
" He can't locate me, and what's for breakfast?" says the narrator. She enquired.
" I hope you don't have any regrets." Claudia issued a warning.
" Where has Aaron gone?" She enquired.
" He's playing with his toys in his room." Claudia smiled as she responded.
Claudia was Miranda's best friend and also like a sister; they met at the orphanage and subsequently escaped because the nuns were mistreating them. They barely ate once a day or twice a week in the orphanage, so they decided to flee. They walked and slept on the streets, and Claudia was raped as a result. When she discovered out she was pregnant at a young age, she wanted to kill the pregnancy by using abortion pills, but Miranda refused, promising to look after her and her baby by working hard. They grew up together as sisters and relatives. Claudia eventually gave birth to a child named Aaron, who was Miranda's godson and whom she adored. Miranda and Claudia put in extra effort to get to college, which they achieved and from which they had already graduated. For both of them, life was difficult. Miranda, unlike Claudia, never met her biological parents; she was informed a lady left her off at the orphanage's front gate. She didn't care who her parents were because they had abandoned her.
" I'll put in more effort to ensure that he attends school. He is disappointed to watch his buddies go to school while he stays at home and does nothing. Miranda's brow furrowed and she said,
" You've done everything you can for him." Claudia grumbled.
" He's a member of the family." We are a family, and we must support one another. "I'm hoping to get employed as CEO Templeton's personal assistant." Miranda grinned as she pulled the pot from the cupboard.
"Just keep an eye out. The Templetons brothers are said to be dangerously wealthy and ruthless, according to rumors." Claudia gave her opinion.
"Yes, I am aware. The Nasty Billionaires are their name. I'm hoping I don't see them because I'm terrified, but what can I do? I need the money." She laughed.
" You have a huge day tomorrow."
To be continued...

Getting inside after passing by the club bouncers at the door, he walked in with his guards and he was welcomed by the sound of very loud music, sweaty people were almost everywhere grinding their bodies together. Everyone around looked almost wasted, only few weren't and most of them were business men and Mafias who came to the club to have a good time and to get some sluts on their bed for tonight.

He prayed their strategy would work and Amelia wouldn't notice he was following her.Amelia, unbeknownst to him, has her own intentions.***Miranda was lying on her bed, unable to sleep. Her eyes were heavy, but no matter how hard she tried, sleep eluded her. She grew ignorant of her surroundings after a few minutes of staring blankly at the ceiling, so engrossed in her thoughts
Amelia sat in the room as she didn't know where Andrew could have gone early in the morning. Could it be he had known that she wasn't the real Miranda? It couldn't be, even if he was to know but not now, not today that they were about to get married. She needs to play her cards right so he wouldn't suspect or get any trace that she wasn't Miranda.

Amelia walked out of the room with Victor while his guards trailed them as they walked into his study. She didn't know why she didn't trust Victor yet, after what happened in the ball the other day, Amelia had been so desperate for the attention of Andrew." You have to stick to our plan, Victor. " She began as he took his seat." What plan? " Victor laughed which made Amelia frown deeply." You promised me not to cause harm on Andrew if I accept to be your accomplice. In exchange for giving you what you want, you will give me Andrew unharmed. " She said" So?! I told you I promised why do you still seem worried " he smirked." Do not play gam
Miranda looked at the man like he was talking gibberish but seeing the sincerity on his face, she almost believed then she remembered Andrew's words when he had told her that when he comes back he was going to tell her the truth. Could this be the truth?!" I don't believe you, " Miranda admitted. For years she had grown up knowing that she doesn't have any paternal family. When she was still in the orphanage, sometimes she hoped her mother would come visit her but it never happened. Sometimes children in the orphanage who also had the same story as hers, their mother who abandoned them, come back looking for their child to take them. Now that she's old enough to take care of herself, a man who has been stalking her for weeks and also abducted her and now he is saying he is her uncle. How does she expect her to believe him?
