The Billionaire’s Pretty Thief

Chapter 19



Minus that nerving factor which was no order but their slowness, their meals were exceptional and the personnel at the kitchen were very neat and consistent.

The restaurant is known for its delicacies and its hospitality towards its clients as their client’s satisfaction was their top priority.

Blaze had finished talking about the terms and agreement of the contract and its smooth operation if the two companies had to merge to generate more income, then the deal was sealed and the contract would be stipulated.

He wished them both a good day and they walked out satisfied with their deal.

Blaze picked up his things and left for his house as he needed rest.

Crystal and Georgia had finished savoring their meal, so they relaxed for a while, styled their bills, and left Gen restaurant.

Georgia was already complaining of tiredness so was Crystal too.

“I don’t think that I can make another round of strolling around, my feet hurt and I am full, I just want to take a shower and sleep”, Georgia said, looking so exhausted as though she had been fighting.

Crystal not delivering any words more was just praying in her heart to reach her car faster so that she could steam it and get home as she was more tired than her friend.

They both went out of the mall to the parking lodge and entered Crystal’s car.

Crystal was driving through the busy road and kept wishing that, there should be no traffic as they returned home because it was a workday of the week, and it was at that certain time of the evening that workers returned home.

Crystal noticed that the silence in the car was not normal so while she drove, she looked at her friend who was sitting by her to know why the sudden speechlessness in the car and she found her sleeping.

When a stroke of laughter, Crystal continued driving as she had to drop Georgia at home before getting back to her house.

The traffic was becoming serious and Crystal decided to take another road so that she could reach faster.

The beauty of the evening could be seen as the sun settled at the back of the mountains making way for the heat to go away and for the sweet twilight breeze to set in.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Crystal was already at her friend’s entrance, so she horns twice for the security agencies to come out.

” Her friend, we are already at your house”, she let out as she tapped her on the shoulder so as not to brutalize her in her sleep.

“What happened to me?”, she inquired while rubbing her eyes.

Crystal laughing so hard said that she was sleeping all through while she was driving and that she should get home.

The security agent was seen opening the gate and when he saw Crystal’s car, he rushed to greet her happily.

Crystal too liked him as he is a polite and humble young man. She sent her hand into her purse and gave him a few thousand.

“Thank you Ms. Crystal”, he said in a pleasant mood.

Crystal told him to take Georgia inside as she was very exhausted.

As soon as Georgia was taken out of the car together with her shopping bags, Crystal waved her goodbye and drove on to reach her house.

While driving her back, she suddenly thought of going to Blaze’s house to confront him and take the remaining twenty-nine million francs CFA that was lacking in the briefcase but again, she was feeling too tired from the long day that she had been through with Georgia.

“No I will go there tomorrow morning, and I know that I will meet him at home”, she whispered to herself alone in her car.

Georgia was inside her house and she was happy with the things they had purchased and she could not wait to try them out after she woke up.

Blaze had arrived at his house from the office so exhausted that he could not hear a thief enter his room, and the meeting was so many that he had to reschedule some.

Taking off his coat and shirt, he headed straight for the bathroom before going down to have dinner alone as always.

Horns at the gate and wait,

Crystal was already at her mansion and the defense agent, opened the portico for her to go in.

” Thank you”, she said as she drove in parking her car reasonably.

She stepped down of the car with her belongings, heading inside the house with her body weighing out of tiredness.

“Welcome Ms. Crystal”, Gina, speaks politely she takes her bags from her going upstairs to her room to drop them off.

” Thank you Gina”, Crystal responded following her from behind as she also

took the stairs walking as though she was not going to make it to her room.

Reaching her room, she fell on the bed tired and Gina asked if she needed something else, but she had a question she needed to ask,

“Where is Uncle Max Gina?”, she asked getting up from her bed.

Fine responded saying that her uncle was not at home and had not returned from the office since he left that morning.

Crystal rolling her eyes up and down told Gina that she needed to take a shower and rest and that when her uncle returns and asks for her, she should tell him that she is in her room resting.

Gina nodded in confirmation and asked whether Crystal liked for her to cook something for dinner or if she would like to have fruits instead.

Crystal shook her head and narrated how they had walked throughout the city all day and she was as full as a tank.

Gina, on hearing this laughed and excused herself as she had to finish up in the kitchen.

Crystal rose to her feet closed her door behind Gina, and went into the bathroom to have a warm bath.

When she was done with her bath, she came out fresh like a fish and she applied her lotion on her body making it moist to keep it out of the heat during the day.

setting her favorite song on her Bluetooth device, she ascended to her bed and awaited the sweet hands of sleep to come and embrace her, she could only think of one thing, which was a plan of action against her confrontation with Blaze Jadiel tomorrow.

She could finally feel her eyes heavy and her body not responding to her anymore and darkness filled her whole room as she closed her eyes in the overpowering hands of sleep.

It was morning and her alarm clock signal woke her up and she struggled to stop it from sounding all over her room.

The continual noise from her alarm clock always nerves her each morning as it is just too loud.

Pulling her body onto her bed, close to the little cupboard standing beside her bed, she stretched her hand and pressed the alarm hard, its sound stopped and there was silence once more in her room just as she liked it.

Crystal enjoyed it when her mornings were calm and peaceful with her curtains pulled to avoid the sun rays from getting into her room through the little openings of the curtains.

Just as she was about to continue with her sleep, a know came into her room and she could not believe that her sleep was to be interrupted once more.

Using her pillow to close her ears, pressing them hard against her head, she heard another knock again but this time it was accompanied by a voice saying,

” Crystal dear, I know that you are inside your room, can you wake up and open the door for me?”.

Crystal putting her head up like someone who had heard the sound of a strong wind blowing towards her direction, filtered the voice in her heart mixed with the sleep she was feeling in her system and she realized that it was Uncle Max who was knocking at her door.

Responding to him as she stepped down from her bed, entering into her slippers at the side of her bed, and taking her robe from the table standing by her table, she put it on her mini nightgown as she walked to the door and unlocked it.

“Good morning Uncle Max and how was your night?”, she asked seeing her uncle standing in front of her room all dressed up like someone who was just coming back from where he had gone

” Good morning to you Crystal and how was your night, hope it was better than the previous night?”, he asked walking into her room and sitting on the sofa found in her room crossing her legs over.

Crystal already had an idea as to why her uncle was in her room that early morning, went back to her bed and had a sit on it waiting for her uncle to still say the reason why he was there that morning.

Uncle Maxarranged himself well on his sofa and used his back to fully support his weight on the chair as he leaned backward, he asked Crystal what her new plans were and when she was going to execute them.

Crystal taking a deep breath, responded to her uncle as she scrubbed her eyes with the back of her hands.

She was not certain about the plans she had but if there was one thing that she was aware of, it was the fact that she was getting the balance from Blaze and there was no doubt about it.

Crystal had been through a traumatizing experience that she did not relate to anyone not even her friend as she did not know how to go about the story.

She held her neck, as she felt like words were not coming out of her mouth and her throat was itching probably from eating too many sweet things at the restaurant she went to yesterday.

With a calm voice and lowered eyes, she told Uncle Max the plan she had and how she was planning to go about it.
