Bella's povWhile in my office at the Aldama Group, I received a call. It was Melissa, I had employed her to make sure Angelica spent every dime she had in the casino."I made sure she visits the casino every day ma'am," Melissa said on the other end.She was good, she goes out of her way to make sure Angelica doesn't go a day without visiting the casino. With a satisfied smile, I said, "Good job." I dropped the call and collected a file from Nadia, my secretary. She slowly walked out as I glared at the file. It was a document that needed my signature. I was about to sign when I heard my phone ringing again. I turned and saw the caller ID was Raymond, my loyal thug, he helps to get any illegal job done and he always gives the best in what he does. "Ray? Yes, I need you to go to the cross cemetery. Buy a coffin, dig a grave with 'Maya Lawrence' written on the surface. Make it look real, make it look like Maya Lawrence was buried there. Do something, just make it perfect." I said with

Bella's povUpon entering my apartment, I caught sight of Alexia smiling and fixated on her phone. 'What or who could make my best friend blush like this?' I wondered as I walked closer to her. I did it gently, so she didn't notice my presence. I got behind her and what I saw amazed me. She kept swiping and glaring at Reggie's picture on her phone. She went on and on. It seemed more like an obsession. She had numerous photos of him. I even lost count. "He's just so handsome," Alexia blushed and zoomed his picture. my mouth fell wide open and my eyes froze. I thought I was hearing things and wanted to confirm If she crushing on my man.I got in front of her but she was so engrossed on her phone that she still didn't notice my presence. I cleared my throat and said, "Who?" She slowly looked up and was startled to see me. She tried to hide her phone. I could tell she felt guilty with the look on her face. "Uh… it's, well… " She looked down and said, "It's Reggie, but I promise, it

Bella's PovMy face flushed as he carefully placed his lips on mine. I closed my eyes and lost control. I cupped the back of his head and ran my fingers down to his nape while he sucked my lips. He was everywhere, touching, kissing, and scattering my thoughts as his hand explored my body with a sensual lust. His lips were wet, I kissed his neck and felt his pulse hammering beneath my lips. Every inch of his body yearned for my touch. He felt almost desperate to touch every bit of my skin. He parted his mouth and stole my tongue, sucking on it passionately causing me to moan into his mouth. His body flooded with excitement as I caressed his chest. "Damn," He moaned and tried to take my top off. He slowly grabbed my ass and placed me on the table beside us. "What the fuck!" A loud voice interrupted us. We paused and turned to see who it was. It was Brown. My jaw dropped and my heart raced. I bit my lower lip and got behind Reggie. Brown stood at the entrance with an angry look. Whil

Bella's povI panicked and tried to hide my nervousness. An unpleasant feeling filled my heart as Reggie pulled me away from Brown. I had expected him to be here even before his brother made his speech. The looks we were getting from the crowd were becoming embarrassing. "What are you doing, Reggie? People are watching." I murmured as I stared into his eyes. "Hey, give her back to me. What are you even doing here?" Brown held my second hand. It felt like they wanted to split me in two. "Well, I came to stop whatever this is." Reggie grabbed my waist and pulled me even closer. "And you Brown, I believe this hall is under the Smiths name, and being the first son of Mr. Renato Smith, I must say, you have no right to this hall. So, you can either see yourself out this minute or I have the security throw you out."Reggie said in a dangerous and serious tone. His aura was chilling and any wrong move from his brother would cost him the engagement.But by the looks on Brown's face, he wa

Bella's Pov"You're pathetic!" "You're more pathetic than I'd ever be." I gently stood up from my seat. "What are you doing here, Angelica? Lunatics aren't allowed here."I gazed up at her with a faint smile in my eyes, rimmed with a hint of mockery. Luckily, the people around kept playing and placing their bets without paying attention to her. I didn't wait to hear what she had to say because I know the one month in her contract had expired and now she's shocked to see the amount she'd be paying the Aldama Casino. Little did she know that this was just the beginning. I snapped my fingers. Behind me, my three bodyguards whipped out their batons and advanced towards her. Though they were just three, their threatening auras were enough to scare her and the puppy [Monica] she calls her friend. Melissa and Alexia were right behind me as I was ready to make life a living hell for her. This is my casino, and if she isn't ready to comply with the rules in the contract she signed, then she
