The Billionaire’s Pretty Thief

The only thing she could remember was Georgia calling for Gina the maid to make a glass of warm milk for her to drink to be able to sleep.

After the milk was brought up to her room, her friend helped her to drink it all up and she decided to take her to leave so that she could rest from crying all day long.

Georgia left her room hugging her tightly and promised that she would be back the next day to check up on her.

She closed the door behind her and her friend left while she went back and laid down on her bed waiting for sleep.

As she was remembering all that, another knock followed again, and this time she decided to get down from her bed and walk to her door to open up.

There she was all afraid as she had been knocking for some minutes but Crystal wasn’t opening.

Gina, all sweaty in a panic state pushed out a large smile of happiness as she finally realized that her mistress was just sleeping and there was no cause for alarm.

She asked Crystal if there was anything she wanted for breakfast, but her response was negative as she just wanted to slide into her bed in order not to be reminded of the unfortunate scene she was living in her life.

Crystal told Gina that she needed some more rest and also asked about the whereabouts of his uncle but Gina replied that her uncle had been very busy for some days now.

With a shallow smile that was as fake as that of an unsatisfied kid, she told Gina to excuse her and that if she needed anything else, she would call her right away without any hesitation.

Gina nodded and left to her post in the kitchen and Crystal went back to Juno in her bed.

She stayed in bed avoiding thinking about the unfruitful incident but rather decided to focus on a new plan of attack to get back what she wanted.

Turning on her bed she couldn’t find sleep anymore and with her heart beating in her chest, she could only think of one thing which was to reflect on her goals and achievements in life.

And if doing that task was going to guarantee her total reinstating into her late father’s company, she was going to do it again and again.

Turning from side to side with a weary soul, she went into her room and sat down on her bed, stretching her body as though she had been beaten by an evil spirit in her dream.

The seconds ticked as Crystal sat up on her bed holding her head in her hands thinking of another strategy and the only one that could come to her head at that moment was to go to Blaze’s house to meet and confront time.

He had played dirty and that was killing Crustal in the deepest part of her heart.

Crystal passed by the mirror and noticing how swollen her face had turned into, her eyes narrowed slightly as she stared at the mirror looking at herself in the mirror as her eyes had changed their color and size.

They were now very big and her face was rough from crying too much. Her head asked so much though she was claiming to be strong.

When she had finished checking up all the parts of her face and body that had changed either inside, texture, or color, she walked into the bathroom to brush her teeth and shower.

As she got into the bathroom, her phone began to ring and she was forced to come out again to find out who it was that was calling.

Georgia her friend was the person who was calling her so she picked up the phone and answered,

“Hello?”, his voice was not that good, but it was clearer than the previous day when she could not talk and whenever she did, her friend could barely hear what she was saying.

Georgia responded on the other side of the phone asking her friend how her night had been and if she wanted her to bring her anything when coming to see her that day.

Crystal with a smile as though she was a child, she told her friend to bring whatever she found interesting.

Her friend said she would be at her house in a few minutes and Crystal approved it.

She walked back into the bathroom to have her bath before actually going down to wait for her friend.

She opened up the shower and before she could catch her breath the water had already started flowing on her back. It was very cold and she could not withstand d the cold.

Only then did she realize that she had not regulated the shower to have warm water.

Crystal immediately did so as she was not a fan of cold water.

She took her bath and went for her towel to wipe off her body so as not to leave water all over her room when she came out.

Afterward, she took out her brush and while brushing her teeth, she could not help but stare at the mirror that was in front of her in her bathroom.

She looked at herself again in it as though she was hoping to see some other person and not just her.

Her grip tightened to her brush so much that she began brushing her teeth with force wounding her gums out of the pressure she was applying on the brush.

She twisted herself to spit up the dirt she had brushed from her mouth and then blood was amongst it.

Crystal rushed out her mouth with water and lined up her brush with the other washroom things, she stepped out of her lavatory and went into her room.

Her room was immense for a 23-year-old lady but she had always grown up in luxury.

Crouching on her little chair in front of her embellishing table and her mirror just in front of her, she opened her first lotion set and rubbed her body nicely as it was her routine to always do.

The day had somehow begun better at least better than the prior day as the birds on the hedges sang symphonies from outside her room and her temperament was getting better as she had gotten over trudging herself and obtaining a result real sharp.

When she was done applying her motions and skincare products, with not much effort standing up from the stool, she strolled through her room and to the other side where her wardrobe was and she began searching for an outfit for the day.

Crystal had in mind that she was going to pay an unfriendly visit to Blaze Jadiel later that day and she was not going to be nice.

A knock was heard on her door and she supposed it was Georgia who had arrived.

” Come in the door is open”, she spoke from inside.

Georgia pushed the door to her right and entered her friend’s room.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

She was happy seeing that her friend was getting over what it was that had put her in that unpleasant spot where she had met her yesterday.

Crystal had found something light and free to out on for the day as it was occasionally worn and she could go out with it or stay home with it too.

Walking closer to Crystal, Georgia with a hug, embraced her friend with happiness.

“I am happy that you are better today than yesterday” ” she spoke out as she walked across the room to Crystal’s table, dropping her bag on it.

” Where is my parcel that you said you would bring for me?”. Crystal asked in wonder as she did not seem to find Georgia with any shopping bag or anything similar to that.

Georgia gave her a funny look and said,

“I stopped at the supermarket and got you fruits and I also got your favorite cherries”, Georgia related.

She had brought some fruits for her friend and she left them downstairs in the kitchen to Gina the maid.

Crystal was happy when her friend told her that she had kept her cherries as cherries were her favorite fruits.

As the girls were chatting, another knock was heard on Crystal’s door again, and she thought that it was Gina who had brought her fruits.

She hastily went for her door and when she opened it, Uncle Max was standing at her door with a shabby peek.

At the sight of her uncle whom she had not seen for almost thirty hours, a lump formed in her throat making swallowing Difficult.

Crystal did not know what to say as even salutations were more than her to utter from her mouth.

” Good morning Crystal my niece, how are you doing today?”, Uncle Max asked as though he was concerned about her.

Georgia who was inside had heard Max’s voice and she immediately stood up and raised to the door with a smile.

“Good morning Uncle Max”, she said with a smile.

Max ridge a little to look at the person who had greeted him from Crystal’s room with such a sweet voice.

” Georgia”! he called out after seeing her standing behind Crystal.

Georgia was the daughter of one of Max’s business associates and he barely saw her coming to the house since he was always busy at work.

“Come give Uncle Max a hug dear”, he enunciated as he moved to enter Crystal’s room.

Georgia came out from standing behind Crystal and hugged Max and while they hugged each other, Max gave a threatening glimpse to Crystal as a sign of warning and she understood what that meant.

Max’s look was very deep as he was making sure that in Crystal’s weakness, she had not said anything that she did not have to say to her friend.

Due to the effect of looking at Crystal with such a repulsive look, Max tightened Georgia a little more than he had to do with his extra pound and big tummy, causing her to choke as she began gulping for air.
