Melanie is in trouble
Melanie walks back to her room after both guys had already left the house.
She walks inside the room she could call ‘hers’ and bang the door shut behind her.
She drags her feet deliberately towards the bed and throws herself on the bed tiredly.
“I think the only thing they hire me for is to face their melo drama till my one year will be over” she groans and she shakes her head in frustration.
“Why was I here in the first place?” she mumbles under her breath and toose and turns on the bed making her back rest on the bed while she’s facing the ceiling.
She picks her phone from the nightstand, exactly where she had dropped it earlier.C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
She tap on the screen and the phone come to alive.
Seeing the the notification that confirms that her debt has been paid, a weird thought comes to her mind and she contemplate whether or not to go with the plans.
“Should I just run away to a place they’ll never find me?” she thought moving her hands to the back of her head.
“What if they eventually finds me and make me go through hell for running away with their money?” she sighs and close her eyes tiredly.
She seems tired even when she didn’t do anything. The problem she’s seen is enough to makes her feels exhausted.
Suddenly, she feels a slight headache and she grab her purse. She zip it down and rummage through her stuff but couldn’t find pain killer.
She pours the contents inside the bag on the bed and she still couldn’t find any.
“Shit! How can I not have any?” she groans and slaps her forehead in annoyance.
She pick up her small purse and scan through it and she finds some cash that’s enough to transport her out of the city.
She smiles at her thoughts and packs her stuff inside the purse.
“First things, i needs to get pain killer pills for me to live long in this hell.” She drop her phone back on the nightstand and find her way out of her room after she has taken a few cash with her.
She exit her room and starts strolling down the gigantic stairs she finally gets to the living room and she make use of the exit.
Once outside the house, she shift her gaze to where the waterfall is she smiles at the sight of the waterfall and she shakes her head.
“I’m not going there today.” she says to herself and walks towards the front gate. Wanting to pull the gate open, she recollect that she’ll need the passcode that was sent to her phone the previous day to get past the gate.
She hisses and walks back inside the mansion. Walking through the stairs makes her regret taking the job.
“I’m just realising that the huge amount of money that was used to pay off my debt can’t be compare to the stress I’m passing through.” she groans as she walks through the long hallway.
Getting to her room, she grabs her phone and marched angrily back to the stairs and she sighs heavily before striding down the stairs.
She gets to the exit and punches the digits on the screen but it shows that she’ll need the second password for her to walk pass the door.
Doing it the second time and the results is still this same.
“Why is this stupid gate is behaving like its stupid owner.” she rants and she feels tears streaming down her cheeks. Just then she could hear a buzzing sound of a buffer.
‘Your video has been taken and will be deliver to Mr Gordon after few minutes’ the buffer said and Melanie widens her eyes in shock.
Melanie moves her palm to her mouth in shock.
“Why are they after my life?” Melanie crys out and hit the gate with her fist.
‘Another picture has been taken and will be deliver to Mr Gordon later’ the buffer says again and rolls her eyes before crying back to inside.
They’re all after her. Both the father and the son and now stupid buffer.
Only heaven knows which is more stupid among them.
Cordelia sighs and falls on the couch as soon as she gets to the living room.
At The Company
Mr Gordon sit amidst the ages men and women of the board at the conference hall.
He introduce the new project he has been working on for quite sometimes now and how he had worked mightily over it, the previous night.
They all put their hands together for him and praise for his hard work.
Mr Gordon snaps his fingers at Harley, his secretary to connect his phone to the projector to display the project.
He raise his hands up in the air, he close his lid and smile proudly at what he has done and how happy he’s going to make them feel after going through the works he has put together.
He has been working on the project for months and he intends to finish it up before the board meeting today. So he has completed the project on his phone.
He thinks it’s the best to have the project on his phone and transfer it to his computer system later, he thought he might need the project anywhere and anytime and the best place to have it is on his phone since it’s always with him wherever he go.
He hears the gasps escape each and every one of them and he couldn’t be more proud of himself. He knew they’re all going to like it.
A smirk plaster at the corner of his lips and he wonder how much more surprise they’re going to feel if they should see the rest.
Another gasps escape their mouth and it was accompany with mumbles among themselves.
He raise his head up high and he flick the strands of hairs that’s covering his face to the back.
Harley, his secretary moves closer to him, she bends to his size in attempt to tell him of their current issue.
Mr Gordon raises his index finger up giving Harley the best way to tell her to shut up.
He hate it when people tries to get nosy at work.
“What is the meaning of this nonsense?” Mr Gordon could hear an angry voice from the board mentor and he slowly put down his hands.
He slowly opens his lid and the looks that welcome him isn’t friendly at all.
He stands up from his seat and decided to check the projector by himself to see where he made mistakes.
Behold what that displays on the screen was the crying Melanie, the darn employee with a message from the buffer at the bottom.
Mr Gordon rushes to where the control is and switches the projector off.
Mr Gordon took his phone and bow to the angry boards members and runs out of the conference room.
He heed straight to his office and slams his fist on the table and it makes an annoying sounds.
He undo the first three button of his shirt and creases his hands on his hair.
He takes off his jacket and walks towards the exit, taking another glance at his office. He walks back to his table and he shit down his system before walking out angrily from his office.
He saunters angrily towards the elevator and they all moves back in shock at the look on his face.
He enters into the elevator and punch in the ‘first floor’
He battles with the tie that doesn’t seem to perfectly fit on his neck anymore.
The elevator finally stops and he walks out of it, striding towards where he had packed his car at the garage.
He gets in the car and drives out of the company in a high speed.
Driving inside the mansion, he couldn’t wait till he gets hold of Melanie and show her what he’s capable of.
Because of her stupid plays with the buffer he lose 200 billion.
“200 fucking billion. He wouldn’t have come back home. He wouldn’t have left the conference hall if the board member wouldn’t insult him for making such hige mistake.
He knew they’ll only nods at his complaint then keep their shares to themselves. They would say since he’s not ready they’ll respond to the ones who has things to do.
“Melanie!” he screams her name and get no reply. He peek at every coroof the living room to be sure no one is there.
He proceeds to her room. Taking the hall that leads to her room he clench his fist and pushes his way into the room.
He takes two steps back at the sight in front of him…
