The Billionaire’s Pretty Thief

Chapter 46



Max’s phone rang up and he immediately picked it up thinking that it was his men but it turned out that it was the minister who had been looking for him everywhere that was calling for him to come out.

Taking a deep breath and rolling his eyes at the ceiling, he picked up the call,” Hello Mr. Taylor, I am afraid that I will have to leave as I have other marriages to officialize”, he spoke out and Max begged him to stay as there is a little problem but that was going to be solved soon, the Minister hung up the call.

Rushing down the stairs to go keep up with him so that he would not leave, his phone rang out again, and throwing a glance at his phone, he noticed that it was his most trusted guard that was calling him.

Without hesitating, he picked up the call and asked,

“Have you found my niece and that traitor?”.

His breath could be given attention to on the phone as he was very tense and could not control it. Letting out a profound sigh, the guard answered him with a no which made Max lose his temper screaming at the top of his voice.

Training courses on Crystal, he swore not to let the humiliation that she has made him face go unpunished.

The decorators, turning to look at the person who was screaming so much in anger, saw that it was their boss and the supervisor of the decorators, walked to him asking what the matter was, but Max turned in bitterness asking everyone in the house to get out.

The supervisor tried to can him down but he held her hand with fire in his eyes and yelled once more,

” You all should get out now”.

In fear, they all started up to pack their stuff and their working equipment. He held his head like a mad man and his potbelly that was depicted under his shirt stocked in his cruiser, gave him the look of a chunk villain.

Max could not believe that something like that was happening to him and within seconds, his phone was ringing nonstop as his invitees came to be calling him all at the same time.

Feeling a headache that he had never felt before, he turned back to his stairs and climbed leading the way to his room and shutting the door behind him. He knew that he was in a very embarrassing situation so it was of no use that he shoulda lot himself again in front of them.

“You have the guts to do this to your uncle Crystal?”, he said himself unfolding his tie and taking off his coat. He did not think of where his niece could be all he could think of was what to do to her when he finally saw her.

He had put his phone on silent so as not to listen to his phone ringing in disorder.

Gina was still sitting down and with all the fear that was covered in tiredness, she fell asleep by Crystal’s bed without noticing. Opening her eyes, and feeling a bang on her back head, made her hold the place with her right hand while she struggled to get up.

” Where am I?”, she asked turning to her right and noticing that Gina was sleeping by her. Looking around, she was familiar with that room as she had been there before, and without further ado, she spoke out softly, it was Blaze’s room and she could identify it even in darkness.

Wondering why Gina was sitting on the ground and sleeping and searching for Blaze as there was no sign of him in the room.

She stepped down the took a look at the bed and the night when she came to rob Blaze came flashing before her eyes with a sharp turn away from it so as not to think of that horrible night, she turned her back and walked around the room as though she was expecting something strange to happen.

After several thoughts as she paraded the room, she went closer to Gina in an attempt to wake her up and reaching closer to her, she could not help but realize the tiredness on her face and the sacrifice that she had made for her.

“Wake up Gina”, she said gently as she tapped her on the shoulder so as not to have an abrupt awakening.

Gina who had felt the soft hands of someone calling her name for her sleep opened her eyes unhurriedly, and catching sight of her mistress standing closer to her, she jumped up asking forgiveness for sleeping without her approval.

Crystal smiling at her extended her two hands to Gina and without saying further any word, she hugged her with tears running down her eyes as she said,

” Thank you, Gina”.

Gina went all emotional about what was happening and with her eyes filled with tears too, she took up her hands and embraced Crystal saying that she was a good soul and needed to be saved from her wicked uncle whose sole aim was only to destroy her future for his selfish ambitions.

Pulling herself from Gina’s arms, she told her not to worry as the person in whose house they were in, was not a friend of hers but was going to help them.

Gina smiled and let out,

“I know Ms. Crystal as I saw the way he was so worried about you, I could see in his eyes that he was dying of love for you”.

Crystal looked at Gina and wondered what she was talking about and she went on with her words, telling Crystal how Blaze had remained there to watch over her and had asked his maids to prepare a room for them both.

” He is in love with you and you must be blind not to have noticed it yet ma’am”, she concluded.

Taking her mistress’s hands, she told her to go and meet him in his office, and Crystal wrenching her face in confusion interrogated how she knew that he would be there and she admitted that he had told her to call upon him as soon as she woke up.

Crystal letting her hands out, walked away from Gina not knowing whether going to see him was the best thing to do she thought back to the many awful things that she had done to him before, and took in a deep breath she raised a question,

“How will I face him?”, her question fell into Gina’s ears and she was lost as she did not know why she was sounding that way. Letting out a huge sigh, she asked Crystal whether she had ever hurt him in any way or waif s there was something that she wanted to tell her that she was finding difficult to say.

Crystal playing with her fingers under the sleeve that was on the maid’s gown that she was putting on, wore her innocent look, and Gina not wanting to push it harder than it was, told her not to bother as she would be the one to go tell Blaze that she was awake.

Speechless as to how to face him, she stood still and Gina walked to her saying that she was going to be fine. Crouching her down, she smiled at her and went out of the room to talk to Blaze in his office.

Crystal was left alone in the room, thinking back to what had gone on to her and her gashes ran down her cheek without any control. She made an effort to stop them but the more she did, the further they flowed.

A few moments later, she heard the door unlocking as the handle bent over, let the door open and someone came inside the room. It was Blaze for sure and she knew it as Gina had gone to inform him that she was awake.

Raising her head with tears in her eyes, and her gaze meeting Blazes as he approached her slowly, she rose to her feet, walked towards him as well, and endeavored to move her lips in an attempt to apologize for what she had done to him, but Blaze calmed her down with a finger and taking her into his arms unexpectedly, he said,

” Just stay quiet this once Crystal”.

Crystal’s sentiment rose to its peak and without fighting back she hugged him right crying like a baby. Blaze caressed her hair letting out that she should not cry as he was there for him and no harm came her way.

Gina who was standing by the door, smiled out as she turned her back going to the room that the maid had shown her that was where she was going to be sleeping.

Crystals were just the other way and she was wowed by the size and comfort of her new room.

“This is too big for a maid”, she spoke out touching the table and couch that were found inside.

Still hugging each other, Crystal felt good having to be higher so tightly as she had not had that kind of feeling before. Crying so much, Blaze separated himself from her, asking what the matter was and why she was crying so much, but she could not speak up as a result of crying bitterly.

Her words were cut like a CD-ROM that was not in the position to function anymore and Blaze realizing this, told her not to bother as she could tell him what the matter was.

Holding her hands he said that he was there for her and he was equally happy to see her again. Her unconscious state had frightened him so much and he was eager to find out what had happened to her that might have made her pass out like that.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

” Are you okay?”, he inquired lifting one hand and taking off the hairs that were on her face and she nodded positively to his question.

Taking a look at her, he further asked hay she was dressed as a maid and Crystal begged him not to say anything about that as she was going to explain everything to him with a sad look she kept eye contact with him.

He told her to take her time as he was not in a hurry and without beating about the bush though with so much fear in her eyes and voice, she told Blaze that she had a request to make.

“What is it that you want me to do, just say it and I will do it”, Blaze mumbled asking Crystal not to be scared of him.
