Chapter 54
Seeing the gravity of the state she was in, he shook his head in pain and let out,
” I have booked an appointment with a therapist and we have to be at his office in like an hour from now”.
“Therapist?”, she thundered in shock. What for, I am fine I do not need any therapist to talk to me.
” Good morning boss”, Max’s guards saluted him as he walked into the living room heading to the kitchen. He had made an announcement to his friends about his urgent need for a maid and she had arrived that morning. Seating in the living room, she could catch a glimpse of how I kept it and wonder what had happened for it to be in that state, she and a clue just by looking at the decoration that had been left out for everyone walking in to see.
“You just be Annabelle?”, Max asked putting on his best smile and showing his teeth to his new maid. Annabelle nodded in confirmation, maintaining her gaze to the ground. Max asked her to take a seat and put his buttocks on his favorite chair, he thought of going to his office to discuss with her but it was of no use as she was there to look ready to start.
Max enlightened her about the things that were to be done around them and her allowances and benefits for her services if she was on good behavior. Annabelle feeling happy to have been given such an opportunity, thanked him saying,
” You will not regret this sir”, she spoke out.
“You start right away if you have no problem with it”, Mas said as he rose to his feet making his at through the scattered things as he headed back upstairs.
Walking up and down in a disturbed mood, Simon could not seem to wrap his hands around Crystal’s sudden quietness, and not being able to contact her, which was the worst feeling that he could ever have. Thinking of the worst, he was forced to ring Georgia’s phone to get information about her. He picked up his phone and dashed onto the balcony, where he called her phone and hoped that she could pick up the call, his wish was been granted as he could listen to her breath on the other side of the call.
” Hello, who am I speaking to?”.
“Hi Georgia, it’s me Simon”, he spoke out holding his cruiser tightly while Georgia searched her head wondering which Simon it was. Thinking of the Simon that she knew, she screamed out in joy as she thought back to their school days.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
Feeling happy to hear from him, she asked how he was doing and what he had been up to but Simon not sounding good, told her about his present situation.
He had gone on a business trip and while there, he had been making an effort to reach Crystal to no avail so returning home, he thought that he could get in touch with her but unfortunately, her line was still disconnected.
Thankful to him for her on that issue, she explained to Simon the disturbing feelings she had been having as Crystal had disappeared without a trace.
” Disappeared? What do you, mean by that Georgia?”, he asked more concerned but not being able to talk longer, she suggested that they meet up somewhere to talk about it.
“Okay just send me your location I will be there in some minutes”, Simon murdered turning back and returning to his room. Peeking for his eyes on the table, he licked them up, and as he put on his slippers rushing out of his room to the parking lot to start his car.
” Are you certain that going to the hospital is the best thing to do?”, Crystal asked as she was about to leave the house with Blaze and nodded his head positively to her question, which left her with no other choice but to follow him. Veering around to Gina, she told her not to worry as they were going to be back soon.
“Please take care of her because there might be people out there wanting to hurt her sir”, Gina spoke out with tears in her eyes as she feared for Crystal’s life.
Not feeling too good about the therapist session, she held onto Blaze’s hand and walked out of the house, she told Gina to relax but that was impossible as Gina was already used to working so sitting around doing nothing, was not for her. She immediately dashed into the kitchen to help the maids with anything available to do. Crystal was treated like a princess and unlocking his car, Blaze opened the doors letting her inside.
His face brightened up whenever he saw her smile still he knew that she needed medical attention to wipe the nightmares she was having. His plans to deal with Max were already in motion but first, he needed to have her talk to his attorney, to know the right procedures to follow up with the case.
” Are you okay, do you want us to get anything else?”, Blaze consulted but shaking her head in denial, she said she was okay. Her eyes filled with the light she spoke out gently with her left hand reaching for Blaze’s that she was grateful for the care and attention that he was showing to her and Gina.
“You do not need to thank me as I am only doing what my heart is telling me to do”, he responded while starting up his engine and with a beautiful smile on his lips he said,
” Shall we go now?”, her countenance changed to that of fear but she had to muster the courage to see the therapist at least for her own good.
Simon was already at the location that was given to him by Georgia and while he waited for her to arrive with the news regarding Crystal, he had caught a glimpse of Becky pushing the door and walking inside the restaurant.
Turning her head while her eyes screen every corner of the piece, she could finally see Simon, and letting out a smile on her lips, she walked towards him, and that could only mean one thing which was that he had been followed.
