The Billionaire’s Pretty Thief

Holding her faith that her uncle was going to see reasons with her soon enough, she could only hope that all the things that the guard had said about him getting a suitor for her were just a lie to get back at her for what she had done to him.

Knocks on the door and waits for a signal to come inside before she does,

” Sir, I am done with Ms. Crystal, can I set the table now?”, Gina inquired as she asked Max’s permission and made a sign with his fingers, Gina understood that the table had to be set up.

Blaze was tired of waiting so with a disappointing face and so much anger, he sighed as he looked at the door for the last time. Riding on his feet he picked up his keys and dropped the flowers on the table beside the glass, he walked out of the restaurant.

“He booked a whole restaurant for nothing”, a waitress said watching at moving out and another added,

” Some ladies are just so stupid to treat such a man in this manner”.

Blaze stood outside breathing some fresh air and keeping his anger on the low as he walked to the parking lodge to steam his car for his house. Crystal not being aware of Blaze waiting for her, had a sad face as she went downstairs to meet with her uncle.

“Everything is going to be fine Crystal, it is not what you are thinking your uncle is not as bad as everyone is painting him”, she spoke to herself walking in front with the guard behind. Taking a turn to the stairs leading to the living room, she saw Gina down transferring dishes to the dining room and laying on the dinner table.

The night was going to be one of a kind as she could catch a glimpse of her uncle, leaving his office with a young man as tall as Blaze with reading lips and gray eyes. Swallowing the lump that had formed in her through making swallowing difficult, Crystal turned her gaze to Gina as she kept on walking to the dining area and breathing in slowly.

The sadness on Gina’s face could not be understood by anyone but there was nothing she could do because her own life would be at stake if she did anything funny or audacious and she had to stay free to help Crystal.

The table was set and Crystal and her uncle together with the stranger were seated on the table. Raising her gaze and meeting her uncles, Crystal sat quietly while the man sitting by them was licking his lips while letting out a smile.

Pim pim***

Blaze hit his car as he drove with a speed that could crush anyone that was standing on the road, his anger was too much no woman had ever done something like that to him and Crystal had done that, what disrespect he thought while accelerating.

His heartfelt resentment for Crystal and he swore never to want to see her again.

” Damn you bitch for making someone like me wait for your kind”, he spoke out as he took his phone with his right hand while maintaining his wheel with the left. Calling on a girl to come to be with him as he could not contain his anger by staying alone, the first lady who came to his mind was the one he called.

Clearing his throat and making gestures on the table, Uncle Max taking up his glass, said that he wished for one thing as he made a toast to long life and a happy union between his niece and Nathan the young man sitting by her.

Flickering her eyes open, Crystal took up her head and turned to the man who was sitting close to her, she twisted her face in discontent, rose to her feet, and yelled at her uncle she said she raised a question on what he was going on about.

Standing on his feet, Nathan extended his right hand to Crystal introducing himself but Crystal slapped off his hand letting out on him to his face that she would never be his wife.

“Hey young lady be very careful with what you say or do”, Max yelled at her from his end of the table and asked her to sit down immediately, he also told Nathan to have a seat as well. Crystal probing stubbornly did not want to sit but Max ok a furious mood demanded her to sit down.

Throwing a spiteful gaze on her uncle, Crystal turned to leave the table but the guard that was present held her hand and brought her back to the table. Nathan who had been watching at every single thing happening on the table began to gain ground over how Crystal had been treated.

Murmuring to himself as he also had his plans, he was delighted to know that such a beautiful and rich lady would be his wife without him making any effort. To him, good things still happen as that could be the only explanation for what he was living at that moment.

Imagine seeing a job poster and when you go for it you are been given such a beautiful opportunity to have a goddess as a wife and a ticket to your dream life.

Forcefully but on the chair, Crystal could not hold back her tears any longer as Gee asked her uncle with a sorrowful voice what he wanted from her. Max sipping from his wine glass, dropped it, and rose to his feet while walking to Crystal repeating what she had asked him.

With his two hands on her neck, he caught Crystal by surprise as he choked her raising a question as to why she was so bent on having a position In the company Crystal struggling under his claws, spoke out that it was her birthright and inheritance.

Pushing her uncle away, she stood up and tore the dress on her to be able to walk, she picked up the knife on the table asking that no one should come closer to her if not she would stab them. and stab herself.

Nathan got up from the table out of fear and walked to one side of the room, but Crystal told him that she knew the likes of him and that before she could count to three, she wanted him out of that house forthwith.

The guard made an effort to walk to her to seize the knife but she let out that if he pushed her to the limit then he was going to regret ever working in that house. Hina who was watching everything was scored for Crystal’s life and knew that there was going to be no escape for her if whatever stupidity she was doing did not work out in her favor.

” Can you keep that knife away Crystal, remember that I am your only surviving relative”, Max pushed to the limit, and on listening to this, Crystal lost her temper yelling,

“What relative are you talking about?, one that will sell his only niece because of Material wealth?”, she spoke out holding the knife firmly in her arms. Max had been taken up by the guard and the other guards who had seen Nathan running out like someone was pushing him coupled with the fact that they had been listening to the noise from inside, rushed to check what was happening and found the whole show.

” You are a heartless and selfish man Uncle Max”, she spoke out as she related all the things she had ever done just to make him happy yet he still wants to take the only thing that makes her happy.

Max scared for his life, pleaded with his niece not to go to that extent and to drop the knife so that they could talk properly but Crystal yelled at him asking whether he thought she was a fool.

“I have given you a lot of chances uncle, I have begged you and cried, and amongst all I have done all sorts of despicable things just to make you happy but what did I get in return, a swollen face and a forced union?”, she thundered but Max could not say anything that will get her angry as he was scared of the knife that she was holding.

Weeping bitterly, she asked why he had transformed into a monster and why he was trying to take her inheritance knowing fully well that it was the only thing that her late father left for her.

In her moments of weakness, a guard had passed up behind her, and holding her hand firmly, he took the knife out of it and Uncle Max did not hesitate a second to slap off her face with the anger that had accumulated in him.

” You think you are tough huh?”, he asked walking to the table and picking up his glass of wine. Crystal was on the floor holding her cheek in pain and Gina rushed to her as she consoled her. Turning his gaze to Crystal, Max asked what was going on in her tiny head when she decided to do something so preposterous but she had no answers cheek was giving her so much pain and Max told her that her wedding would take place in two days because of her insolence.Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

Getting some strength and rising to her feet with the support from Gina, Crystal asked her uncle what had made him turn into a monster, and Max looking at his guard while laughing out hard, responded to his niece as he let out,

“I have always been a monster but you did not just notice it because you were naive and thought that I could give you the love of a father that you have always yearned for”.

Crystal could not believe all that he was saying as they were too hard for her to digest. Max went on with the opening of his secrets to Crystal while all she could do was stand there and feel hurt.
