2. Find Out Where She Lives.
Lily was stupefied at the outcome of the test result she had come to the hospital to do. It’s been two weeks that she had left Drake Bell’s villa, she had been sleeping in the streets and had had it very rough but she would rather become a beggar than return to Drake Bell’s villa.
Wasn’t her pregnancy aborted? How come the outcome of the test she did stated that she was pregnant? She didn’t have intercourse with anyone after leaving Drake Bell’s villa so how then did she get pregnant? Or was the pregnancy not aborted? Then, at the hospital, when the abortion was about to take place, she suddenly went unconscious and only woke up to see blood on her laps.
Well, the most important thing here is that she’s pregnant. This time, she will protect her baby with her life. Her utterly depressed mind lightened up, it was as if she just saw a new ray of hope to hold onto. The past two weeks had been hell for her as she had been barely surviving alone.
“Baby, thank you for staying alive. Mommy will protect you with her life this time,” she mumbled as she rubbed her belly, then she walked out of the hospital.
If her belly start to protude here in New York, anyone related to her ex husband could see her and then, her ex husband may want to hurt her baby again, out of fear, she took the next available train and went to another city.
Six years later, Lily returned back to New York alongside two beautiful kids. This time, she was now a top and popular designer. She had taken up her passion for design in the city that she travelled to years ago and in a space of six years, her skill had made her rose to the top.
She had come back to the city cause the company she works for, Yenny Designs had sent her to represent them in the joint partnership forming between them and the biggest engineering company in New York, Bell’s LTD.
Lily knew that the company she would be working with here was for her ex husband, only that her ex husband, Drake Bell had no idea that the top designer his company would be working with was his ex wife. How can she take revenge on how her ex husband tried to kill her baby in the past if she didn’t get close to him? Getting to work with him would definitely give her the chance to enact her revenge of ruining him.
Although her twin survived the abortion, she felt like it was the doctor’s doing, perhaps, the doctor’s conscience couldn’t let him kill her innocent babies. But the fact that Drake Bell didn’t mind killing her kids means he deserves to experience an intense pain and she will definitely make it happen.
“Mommy has finished cooking, come and eat,” Lily said and lead her kids right inside the room.
Lily ate with her beautiful kids and the following morning, after dropping her kids off at school, she drove over to where Bell’s LTD company was located. It was a skyscraper with tens of floors. Lily had already spoken to the Bell’s LTD agent and had told them she would be coming for her first meeting today.
She soon stepped down from her beautiful Mercedes AMG, dressed adorably and astonishingly, she placed a call across to the agent to notify them she was around. The agent immediately promised to come and receive her.
Apparently, everyone in Bell’s LTD company had all been anticipating to see this popular designer that was coming to partner with their company. There had been many rumors about her. No one in New York suspect that this popular designer was Lily, since Lily used a nickname, Dark Wealth.
As Lily approached the entrance of the skyscraper, a woman and two tall men in suits walked towards her. On looking clearly, she realized that this woman was Amelia, Drake Bell’s childhood sweetheart. She was dressed corporately and looked good.
Amelia paused on seeing Lily, it’s been many years that Lily dissapeared from New York, she didn’t expect for her to suddenly appear out of nowhere. Although they didn’t have any relationship, they both recognized eachother.
“Lily, it’s been a long time. How are you doing?” Amelia asked with a faint smile on her lips.
“I’m good, as you can see. Are you the one here to receive me?” Lily asked. She can already guess that Amelia was the agent she had been speaking with on phone. “Let’s not waste time, lead me quick to where the meeting will be held.” Lily spoke elegantly.
However, Amelia scoffed. She couldn’t deny the fact that Lily was dressed gorgeously and looked great but still, she didn’t believe Lily could be the top designer she had been anticipating to meet.
“Lily, I can’t remember having an appointment with you. I’m actually here to receive miss Dark Wealth, the popular designer that will be working with us here, you must have heard about her, I guess.” Amelia said, “so sorry to dissapoint you but I won’t stoop so low to receive you.” Amelia said and walked proudly away from her alongside the two men behind her.
Lily smirked and walked out of the building, as soon as she got to the underground garage where her car was parked, her phone rang. Seeing that it was the agent, Amelia, she answered.
“Miss Dark Wealth, I’m already waiting for you outside the building but I can’t see you,” Amelia said.
“I already came but you didn’t honor me, I’ll be here same time tomorrow but if you treat me the same way you treat me today then I will have to cancel the partnership that’s about to subsists between our company and yours and put all the blame on you,” Lily said and hung up.
Lily knew that Amelia must be wondering if she was actually the popular ‘miss dark Wealth,” that she had been expecting, She soon drove away from the company and branched at the mall to get her children some groceries. This was a new city and she was still trying to set up her home. She didn’t have much groceries at home.
She soon stepped inside the mall and while shopping, she suddenly heard loud noises coming from outside. Discerning the type of noises that suddenly erupted outside, she could tell that a prominent figure had come to the mall. Afterall, the mall was a super big mall so it’s normal for prominent and powerful people to patronize this place.
Lisa ignored and continued shopping, when she was done, she pushed her cart over to the cashier and after all the stuffs she bought were calculated, the cashier stated the total amount of all she bought then she brought her card out but as she was about to stretch it to the cashier, a deep voice spoke from behind, “I’ll pay.”
Lily paused, she was stunned. Why would anyone want to pay her bill. She flipped her head to the back and was shocked to see… Drake Bell. He was dressed in deep black suits that fits his slim body perfectly.
He had a face that was totally devoid of emotion, Lily soon realized that everyone seemed to have departed from the mall. Apparently, they evacuated everyone from the mall just so one man could shop. Is this how power works? Lily wondered.
“Mr. Drake Bell, thanks for the offer but I’ll pay myself,” Lily said, intentionally addressing him as though they were never into a relationship.Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
“You can pick even more stuffs and I’ll foot the bill,” Drake Bell insisted.
Lily ignored him and turned to the cashier then stretched her card to her, “please take and withdraw the amount of the groceries I purchased.” However, the cashier had her eyes on Drake Bell, she was scared to receive the card from Lily.
“Miss Lily, kindly let me pay.” Drake Bell restated.
“No!” Lily screamed angrily. She had been trying to contain her anger all these while but he hates that he was trying to play nice in public, when infact, he’s worse than a devil. He was on a mission to ruthlessly kill her twin many years ago and here he was, acting all nice.
“Let her pay,” Drake Bell succumbed and took steps back.
In a jiffy, Lily made payment and carried her stuffs out of the mall, intentionally ignoring Drake Bell who was still inside the mall.
On getting inside her car, she slammed her two hands on the steering, “Drake Bell, you may be powerful… so powerful but I’ll show you that I can appear fragile but I can’t be mess with.”
She started her car and drove away roughly. Whereas, Drake Bell stood upstairs in the mall, watching through the transparent glassy window as Lily got inside her car, as she drove away, he commanded. “Find out where she lives.”
His two assistants that stood closer to him responded at once. “Okay, sir.”
