bringing out the files in his suitcase, he placed it on the center table "the account with your savings are all here, and all the details you need are here" Jake said, he became serious "thank you, you did a good job" I said picking up the files and going through it, everything was still intact, I nodded in approval im glad I could trust Jake with my funds. I met him in high school not long after Mr. maqnurne took away my allowance and made me work, he helped me a lot with my finances so I supported him in establishing his own bank.
"I'm glad you're satisfied" he said leaning back on the couch, the maid I asked to prepare snacks walked in with a tray in hand placing what I requested on the table "thank you" I said, nodding she quietly walked away. my eyes was still glued to the files in my hand when Jake asked "aren't you going to explain everything to me now Ella?" I paused looking up from the documents, I didn't like that name, Estella had my past and she died with it so him calling me that steered something aggressive in me "i told you before, don't call me that" I said, it was my final warning and Jake knew it he sensed it.
adjusting uncomfortably on the couch he said "okay im sorry its just that its hard calling you your new name, I don't think I can get used to it" "you better start getting used to it" I replied, he nodded slowly he knew how I was when im serious about something, so he didn't ask further questions, stretching his hand towards the table he took a biscuit and bit into it. after reviewing the papers I dropped them on the table "i want you to open an account with my new identity and transfer all the money into it" I said
Jake nodded "I'll keep this file, call me if there's any problem, that's all for now" I said getting up with the files in hand, Jake stood up "I'll explain everything to you when the time right" I continued looking at him, before walking out of the room. I didn't want to leave Jake in the dark but I don't how bloody this will become so I don't plan on dragging anyone with me, the only people I'm dragging to hell are those monsters cause that's where they belong.
walking into my room I placed the files in a drawer, I needed to go to my company and see how its doing under my manager's care before I start my next line of actions, checking the time it was already 4pm, I removed my clothes and walked into the bathroom, taking a shower I got into something more comfortable, dinner would soon be ready and I needed to head to bed early, tomorrow is going to be a long day.
Javier walked into his house, walking into his room he sat on his bed exhausted, he had to do all the work since veronica left and didn't come back. mustering some strength he stood up and started unbuttoning his shirt, he craved a hot bath so bad "you're back" veronica said walking into the room, Jake glanced at her not saying a word, she chuckled "are you mad at me cause I left you at work" she said with a raspy voice circling around him, she liked Javier he was tall, handsome and built.
his brown hair fell on his face as obvious fatigue showed in his expression, she touched his chest lightly staring up into his brown eyes, Jake looked down at her, her blue eyes staring at him with nothing but need, every time she looked at him like this he remembers the first day they met, the first time he fell in love with her. cupping her face gently he looked into her eyes "are you mad at me?" she said softly, looking down pitifully "off cause not" he replied, mad? why would he be mad at her for anything, she could have whatever she wanted no matter what it didn't matter.
smiling she raised her head and kissed him "then lets go have a bath" she said sauntering into the bathroom, giving him one more look she walks into the bathroom and closes the door. Jake follows in something already rising within him.
in the maqburne mansion, Mr. maqburne sat quietly on the dining table slowly eating dinner with Mrs. maqburne by his side, the house has been quiet since Estella's death, veronica left the house to be with Javier "how is the company dear" Mrs. maqburne asks putting a spoon of food into her mouth, Mr. maqburne continued eating quietly without saying a word "aren't you going to reply me dear husband" she said placing her spoon by the plate and looking at him "what do you want me to say, the company is doing well?" Mr. maqburne said not taking his eyes off his plate, "yes if that is the truth, I heard from veronica the company is in good shape then why are you upset" Mrs. maqburne said furrowing her eyebrows.
"its in good shape now, but not later if only you had raised veronica right I wont be in this situation" he replied, cutting the meat on his plate, Mrs. maqburne frowned "what do you mean by that" Mrs. maqburne raised her voice, she couldn't take the accusations, pausing he stopped cutting, dropping the cutleries he stood up and walked out of the dining leaving Mrs. maqburne dumbfounded "don't walk out on me" she yelled getting up, exhaling deeply she sat back pinching the bridge of her nose.
