New beginning

Raymond's pov

Really bath together, this girl is worse than I thought, all I need is to get my hand on that weird pendant and get over with it, at first I thought I had a chance with her.

Okay but not what you're thinking,what I mean is get to know her or at least just get close enough to get my hands on the diamonds.

You might be asking her but I've got my ways to get to what I want, not to bit around the bush, I meant through her mom.

I think I've lost all hope as her mom is beaming ear to ear, a bit too much if I was asked, I guess it's because of Tyler or what is name again?

Stella's POV

I guess Rachel is right I should be closer to my daughter after all,my fault else I would have gotten to know more about this Ryder boy , if I was asked AKA Bella's man.

This feels so good, I mean it feels just like the old days when I met him,.

So young and care free,

Don't worry Bella you have my support from now on,my blessings are with you and who ever you choose.

As for now, we've got some sly friends to eliminate from your life, but don't worry mama won't be a murderer soon."Hem, ma'am when will she be done, it's getting a bit late and we need to talk to Bella urgently"she spits out, speaking of the devil, she thinks she will get away with her biddings but sorry to tell you I will shield my daughter from now on.

At Bella's

Bella (Naive Bella)

"hmm, Ryder, this will be your room for now, my room is the last one down this passage, but for now get changed, then we can go downstairs."

"okay, thanks beauty" he says winking before vanishing into the room.

"😌😌😌" I sigh

Seems like it's time to face the music, now that I look at it, I shouldn't have made a mountain out of a mole hill.

Nevertheless,I guess I've got limited people at my side, but we'll see really.

"Do you miss me already" Ryder says bringing me back to life.

"You wish " and I earn a snort for that.

Minutes later

Ryder and I are on our way downstairs, all eyes are on me even my dad's eye heyyy, that's nice but not so nice, some eyes are shooting lasers at me, Raymond's and Layla's,

"Why is the meal not served, I'm starving" I say as I get nearer to them trying to break the uncomfortable silence

" Ahhhhh😧😧😧, I will tell them to serve it right away, by the way nice meeting you Ryder." mum says.

Ryder stretches his hands forward got a hand shake" Nonsense" pulling him to a hug" My daughter brought you home, you are family"

I immediately spit my water out, which messes up Raymond's face (he deserves it anyway)

" Mum I think there's a misunderstanding"

"💥💥💥‼️‼️" Raymond hits his fist on the table his eyes closed while the water I spat drips on his suit.

He looks handsome when he's messy.
