Chapter 107

"Oh i see, really, you both are getting along, but don't forget to let love fill your hearts, and your lives, don't be distracted by young men outside, and don't forget you're now married, and anything you do, that's contradictory to your marriage, now you have a permanent mate, not kelvin or James, ok darling, don't bring disgrace to our family, ok darling I'll be expecting your visit, bye." The Grandma said.
"Ok Grandma, I'll try my very best, and I'll not bring any disgrace to our home, bye." Christabel said.
And the call ended, leaving Christabel all amazed and shocked, at why she defended Diego, and she began to ponder why all these are happening, and how she could stop it, before remembering of calling Mira , Christabel was lost in thought, until she called Mira, and they could talk better.
"What just happened, what did I just say to Grandma, how's this possible, I never loved Diego, it was all a contract, then why am I falling in love with him right now, it's not normal, something must be done, I need to avoid all this, I'll stop talking to him, I'll stop him from coming close to me, even no more sleeping in the same room, I'm just confused, what's happening to me, I think I'm Insane, I need to see the doctor, or is there something I need to do that I'm not doing, I better, start thinking on how to avoid all these, so as to perfect all mttyhis is not meant to be done, if only someone could advise me on what to do, whi has ideas on relationship, wait oh my goodness, I've not called Mira, oh Grandma, what the heck, let me call her me though, let me see what she has to say, or should I call her to meet me at our favorite restaurant, maybe we could chill out together, spend some quality time and sort out the issue on ground, yes that'll be great." Christabel thought to herself.
Just then the secretary entered the office to speak with her boss but Is surprised her boss, is looking so nervous and decided to ask out.
Knock ! ! ! ! ! ! Knock ! ! ! ! ! ! Knock ! ! ! ! ! ! Knock ! ! ! ! ! !
"Why isn't miss Christabel answering my knocks, is everything alright, I think I should barge in, ok fine, let worse come to worse." The secretary said to herself.
"Hello ma'am, I've been knocking, and you've not been responding to my knocks, what happened ma'am, is everything ok or is it still about Diego, or something else." The secretary said.
"Oh sorry dear, I didn't hear you, I was lost in thought, hope everything is alright, or are you confused, I think the work is giving you stress right, take a break alright." Christabel said.
"Ok ma, but you're not looking good, ma'am talk to me what's happening, by the way the work been sorted out by our professionals, and our expert workers, but ma'am, what's wrong, is it bout Diego, or something else bothering you, tell me ma'am." The secretary said.
"Ok that's good, make sure you supervise the whole contract very well, I want no mistakes, I mean absolutely no mistakes, well as you can see, I'm confused to a point where, I can't think well, this whole marriage and live thing isn't my thing, I love to be free from love, can you believe that my grandma called me, and was asking why I haven't come to visit, and guess what she blamed it on Diego, to my greatest surprise I defended him, and I was just saying nonsense, like why would I want to defend Diego, I just don't get it, I'm trying hard as possible to avoid any connections I'll have with Diego but, all to no avail, seems like the harder I try, the more my feelings grow for him, like it's not meant to be so, ever since I got married to that idiot, I wanted that hatred to grow, but instead, it's growing love, giving him a chance to win my heart over, and that a big win for him, and a great loss for me, but right now I don't know what to do, I just want to hear from different sides, like different opinion, from there I'll know what to do, I'll knock the next step to take." Christabel explained.
"Ma'am, please calm down, it gonna be all right, nothing gonna stand in the way of you making decisions for your self, you alone knows what you want, you know your heart desires, the type of man you ever wished for, or maybe nature is dancing to the tune of your heart desires, like they always say 'Half bread is better than none' ma'am all I'll say to you ma'am is to, try and watch Diego closely, study his character, get to know him better, he's do and don't, get to know all about him, then you'll know when to decide, because, keeping distance from him, isn't the best idea, it will, only make him begin to avoid you, then you'll he completely in love with him and you'll regret why you never acted on time, I insist you try, and have peace talk with him, concerning what happened between you two, thIS morning, it was too harsh of you to have done such, at least you could have pretended, not to have given him a glimpse of what you feel about him, it'll be rude if you don't apologize, well you've tried though, let's hear what grandma has to say when we get home, because I'll be following you home today ma'am, I can see that this whole thing is weakening you, well but at the same time you need to have experience on these, such is life ma'am." The secretary said.
"Are you sure about all these, or maybe I should go on with my plan of leaving after the contract, the whole thing bus getting me confused, I'll think about what you've said I think it's best I do such, but if the depression gets too much, I'll do my own part, well you said you'll be going home with me, maybe we both can speak with grandma and mira, I think that's the best thing to do right, than, being confused, with the whole situation." Christabel said.
"Yes ma'am, ok ma'am that's the best thing to do, but you'll still have to hear from Mira, so she can give you her own opinion on this issue I think." The secretary replied.
"Ok darling, let me call her now." Christabel said.
"Ok ma I bet to take my leave, well I just came to tell you that the work is on progress, and we're making exploit, and the best part of it all is that, investors, have been disturbing to allow them invest in our company, and our partners have agreed to this, by weekend, we'll be having board meeting with the investors, and our partners." The secretary said.
"Oh, wow that's good news, just make sure everything is in order, so we can further more." Christabel said .
"Ok ma'am, good bye ma'am." The secretary said.
Immediately the secretary left the office after the whole discussion, and Christabel called Mira starlight ahead, so as she could go out for lunch and talk about the whole situation.
"Finally, let me call Mira so we can go out for lunch, and have a good time and talk out things, ok." Christabel said to herself.
Just then she picked her phone and dialed Mira's number to call, immediately Mira saw the call and picked and they spoke for some minutes before agreeing to meet at the restaurant.
