Arabella was still feeling very down. Farrah helped her to erased the news online. It was a success but the news in the magazines were still out there. She unconsciously slept in her frustrated state. Someone knocked her door. She opened her eyes and jumped out the sofa. Her eyes were swollen and obviously tired from crying. “Come in.” Arabella said.  It’s her secretary. “Ms. Jones. I have another bad news for you.” Her secretary was hesitant to continue as she seen her boss’s swollen eyes. “What is it?” Her mood now was so depressing and with another bad news, she doesn’t know if her body can still handle it. “Should I continue ma’am?” The secretary wanted assurance as she didn’t want her Boss to collapse after hearing another bad news. “Please speak up.” Arabella was determined to hear it. She made herself ready to what her secretary is about to say. “It’s about the 2 investors you got last night.

“Mr. Shihiro was widely known for being a notorious loan shark and owner of the biggest lending institution in Capital Z. It was said that his triumph more likely came from many illegal activities and charging injustice high interest rates to his debtors. He was also the leader of the biggest gang troupe in the city. In one snap of his fingers, debtors who can’t pay the interest will suffer losses of properties and worst their lives. It was said too that known VIPs in our city paid huge amount to him to get protection. Others hired his men for killings and for doing illegal business. People believed that Mr. Shihiro was the man behind the rampant killings and violence around the city. Our police men were remained watchers as high ranker officials were getting huge compensation from Mr. Shihiro.” The old butler of the house spoke in daze while still in fear. Arabella was stunned. ‘Could it be that Mr. Shihiro tried to kill her father?’ she thought after hearing these words fr

After seeing Arabella’s bewitching face, the crowd startled. The media were excited to get her side of the story. Everyone was looking forward for a good debate. Who would win? “Ms. Arabella, can you tell us your side too?” One reporter curiously asked Arabella. Trishia on the other side was breathing fire as she was used to be the center of attention and in a blink of an eye someone snatched her throne. One more thing, she personally witnessed Arabella in person. Trishia was then threatened by her magnifique beauty. She didn’t want to admit it first when she saw her in the pictures from the paparazzi, she hired in the party that night. Extreme jealousy ate her up when she saw Bill dancing with another woman. Her vicious mind couldn’t let go of Arabella just like that so she masterminded the publication of articles ruining Arabella’s reputation in the public. Trishia knew that Bill disgusted women with bad reputations. With the crowd sympathiz

“What?” Arabella eyes widened in shocked. Bill’s appearance didn’t show any hint of joking. He had deep seriousness on his face. He was not playing anymore. “Come on Mr. Sky! I never sleep with someone I don’t love. I’m not a prostitute.” Arabella strongly disagreeing. “I know. I heard that before Ms. Arabella Jones.” Bill uttered her name with emphasis. “Okay. Since you knew. There’s no need for me to repeat myself.” This time, Arabella had to surrender on her fight. Her disguise was already busted, she no longer finds any chance to win. “I don’t need a prostitute. I just need you.” Bill frankly said. His eyes looked at her with some sort of sadness in his eyes that she can never tell. Bill walked back towards his car. He didn’t even spare her a glance. He didn’t care if she followed him or not. Arabella ran to chase his big steps. She was afraid to be left there alone. Bill got inside the car and closed it inside.

The scene was too awkward. “Oh, Hi! Ms. Arabella Jones. We met again.” Trishia greeted Arabella showing off her proudest moment with Bill. Arabella sweetly smiled and nod at Trishia to show her pleasant acknowledgement. She tried to gather her cool and show them that she’s not affected of the scene. Why should she be affected? She never had anything with Bill Sky at all. Farrah was unhappy of Gab’s appearance with another girl but she managed to smile at him even if her intense jealousy wanted to jumped out and smashed them. She then averted her gaze to Arabella who was also looking at her with a pretend smile.
