Uncontrollable fond

CHAPTER FOUR:

Holding on her breath , she jumped off a stair stepper machine on the gym floor. With sweat dripping through her fairly face she tied her blonde back in a ponytail.

Breaking her thought, her phone rang from the gym table . She turned off the machine and went through to see who was calling her that early in the morning.

“Hello my beautiful daughter . Am glad that

you’re back safe . You ain’t missing your parents are you .” A soft father’s voice was heard at the other side of the phone .

“ Of course dad I miss you guys a lot . I just came back with a late flight . And didn’t want to disturb you . So I stayed at the hotel for the night . I’ll be coming home for dinner . But I have to go see my Prince Charming at the office first “

Maryjane told her father .

Maryjane :

Maryjane is Victor's longtime family friend and crush since they were young . As the saying goes “They say birds of the same feather flock together .” They studied from the same school and their parents have been family friends since they were even not born yet . They have both been prepared since they were young as the family heirs and heiresses of their family business . So you could tell they were both silver spoons . So many similarities indeed .

Maryjane was in Oxford university completing her masters in business management and planning . So she was not at home for almost 4 years . Her parents visited her from time to time at her university campus . She never even liked to go back home unless it involved anything about meeting up with victor. She loved Victor all her time growing up . And she definitely knew if it were to marry , it would be him she would get married too .

She was indeed beautiful. And a very good mannered spender . She had the most expensive taste when it came to showing off that she was rich . She was very prideful . And with low respect for anybody below her level when it came to having money . Maryjane was a daughter of MR. Emilia . She looked more like her mom . Her mom and her shared similar traits . You could tell they were cut from the same cloth .

She had been studying to take over her family's business . They had three five star hotels in LA and seven others in different other cities .

Her family and victors had been close and somehow cooperated in their business. Because some casinos owned by Victor's Dad were on their hotel floor. So you could say they were business partners .

Maryjane was arrogant . She wasn’t so clever at school since all she knew was just to boast about how wealthy she was . She bribed her way all through school. Unfortunately in the year that she almost graduated with victor , she missed her final exams because she was having a nose surgery .

Stupid reason right ? She never took anything about school seriously . No wonder she was not civilised enough.

A little flashback of the night Maryjane arrived .

Maryjane arrived at the airport and called a Tesla . This was so unusual of her . She is the type to command her family drivers even in the middle of the night. But this day she had other secret plans .

She requested to be taken to victor's apartment directly. She wanted to surprise him . Victor had not changed where he stayed since he graduated from the university. He had bought a whole apartment floor . All by himself Maryjane could not wait till morning to see him . In fact she planned to have a night at his apartment. They were close friends all their growing up . So why not !

As she reached the victor's door , she never hesitated to press the door codes to open up the door . “2423! “ she muttered at the door lock opened

“ O my God he is so old fashioned . How come he has the same passcode for more than 3 years . Wow !”

As she entered she called

“ Victor , victor ! “ There was no response .

She heard some moans on the other side of the room , so she slowly tiptoed . Waking quieter than usual . As if it were the police catching a robber from behind .

She pipped through the small hole on the bedroom door .

“ Oh my gosh ! I can’t believe what I am seeing ! Since when did victor start to bring ladies into his house ! Should I open up the door and chase her away ? No, I can't do that ! Victor would never have a serious relationship with any girl yet ! Whoever that girl is , she better be a night stand . Or I’ll use everything in my power to destroy her .” She muttered in shock .

She slowly pulled her bag through and walked out . Locking the door with a BANG !!

You could tell she was mad from how she locked the door .

Maryjane couldn’t get some sleep that night .

“ Who is she ? Why was she there ? Is it the first time she has been there ? Why didn’t I open up the door to see her properly? I just saw her watch and the side of her face . Am furious asf !! Who could she be riding on top of my victor like that? If she’s a gold digger I’ll teach her a lesson . ” thoughts were running through Maryjane’s mind as she tried to get some sleep to get away from the schock and jet lag.

The next morning Maryjane went to Victor's office as planned . She was told victor was in the meeting and decided to call him .

Victor’s phone rang . …..
