Chapter 71 No Bail
Nalzen
Greg brings us to an expensive hotel/restaurant. But this time It’s not in my Family’s Hotel.
I hope this is not our rival. It’s quiet and peaceful here.
Looks cozy and sophisticated. I like the ambiance.
“I’m sorry for that Nalzen.” Greg apologizes again.
“It’s okay Greg, But I was surprised. I thought your ex is, you know! Kind, haha.” I answered awkwardly.
“She’s not kind at all. I told you already that she leave me with another man. I already told you this to Trina. Babe, I’m sorry for today. This will be supposed to be a happy engagement dinner for us.” He said sighing while holding Trina’s hand.
Awe, They are so sweet! And I’m happy for him.
“Don’t say that! I’m happy Babe. I don’t care about your ex-girlfriend Nancy as long as you love me. And Hey, Don’t be sad! We are here to celebrate. So, cheers!” Trina raises her wine glass and we clink our glasses.
“Congratulations again Greg. Wishing you happiness and many babies to come. Cheers!” Aaron said raising his wine glass.
“Thank you, Aaron,” Greg answered.
“More babies Trina, Cheers!” I said teasingly and Trina blushed.
Hmmm, Did they do it already? I think so! But It’s cute to look at her getting shy and blushing.
She accepted my glass and smile awkwardly.
My phone suddenly rings in the middle of a celebration. It has no name and is not recorded. It’s a telephone call!
I stand up and wave my hand telling them that I will answer my phone.
“Hello, who is this?” I asked politely.
“Damn you Nalzen! Where’s Aaron? Why did he cut all my cards? I can’t withdraw at the bank right now. I need cash to get out in this f*cking jail!” It was Andrea who shouted in my ear angrily.
And her voice is painful to hear!
What is she saying? Bail and jail?
“What are you doing in there?” I asked confused.
“Mark put me in here and I will never forgive him and his mistress!” She answered angrily.
“You mean Julius? Why did he do that? Don’t tell me that he is bored again. That man will never grow up!” I answered shaking my head.
“Julius again, I told you that he is Mark!” Andrea shouted desperately.
I can sense that she is anxious and bothered. She’s really in jail! But why did Mark put her in there? I’m confused with this two!
And Aaron cut off all of her cards.
I must say good to her! But she’s suffering right now so I will not curse her.
“Andrea, Just Mark? Do you know his full name?” I asked.
There’s silence. I think she’s thinking right now.
“I-I don’t know. All I know is that he is Mark!” She answered.
And that’s it. She didn’t even know the real Julius but she’s in a relationship with him?
I don’t know what she’s doing but it’s her life after all.
“He is Mark Julius Borromeo the famous Bachelor Billionaire here. His family is well known in the field of Business and owns large shares in the stock market. And his Uncle is our current President Andrea. Julius is just bored and hiding but I didn’t know that he’s with you!” I explain.
I can hear a screeching sound at the other line. I guess she’s throwing something or doing something noisy!
“What? I have been with him for five years and he didn’t tell me that he’s rich! He lied to me! I give him everything and anything that he wanted but he lied to me!” She’s shouting angrily.
“What? You’re with him for five years? You are cheating with Aaron a long time ago!” I shouted back at her.
Aaron stands up.
“Who is that?” He asked curiously.
“Is that Aaron? Why did he cut off all of my cards? I need money right now Nalzen. Help me!” Andrea is begging me.
But what can I do to her?
“It’s Andrea and asking for help. She’s in jail. She’s angry that you cut off all his cards!” I answered.
“Give me the phone!” Aaron snatch my phone before I answered.
“Cutting off your cards is not enough Andrea. I’m glad that you’re in jail right now. Whoever put you there, I thank him for doing it!” Then he ends the call.
He’s very angry!
“Don’t talk to her again. The jail serves her right!” Aaron raised his voice a little.
I can see the veins in his neck pop out because of anger. What did Andrea do? Aaron is very angry with her!
“Is there a problem?” Greg asked when they hear Aaron’s voice.
Maybe they thought that we are quarreling!
“No Greg, it’s just a phone call but it’s okay,” I answered smiling.
“Let’s continue to eat!” Trina invited us smiling so sweetly.
“Hubby, calm down okay? Let’s talk about it after we celebrate their engagement. Let’s not spoil this happy event because of Andrea.” I hold his hand and caress his face lovingly and he takes a deep breath trying to calm down.
“We’re coming,” I answered happily to Trina.
The engagement dinner finished happily with a happy couple in love. Greg and Trina are meant for each other and I can’t wait to see them get married.
I’m excited for them! We said goodbye and Greg told us that they will send us a wedding invitation later.
We went home and we saw an old woman and a girl at our gate! Who are they?
“Who are they?” Aaron asked.
“I don’t know! Let’s get out of the car. There’s an old woman maybe they are asking for help or food.” I answered.
We get out of the car and asked the two.NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
“Excuse me, what are you doing in here?” I asked.
The old lady slowly stands up with the help of a young girl.
“Are you Nalzen?” She asked me.
“Yes, I’am. What can I do to you?” I smile at her. She looks kind and I like her.
“Ma’am, Please help my daughter. She’s in jail right now. She told her sister your address. Please help her!” She holds my hand and cry.
She’s Andrea’s mother? Why? She looks poor and Andrea is living in wealth!
“You are Andrea’s mother? She deserves that for all the sins that she did!” Aaron chimes in angrily.
“Stop it, Aaron. Look at her mother. She’s innocent in all of this.” I whisper to his ear and he let out a deep sigh.
“Okay, I’ll go inside first. My blood will boil every time I heard that curse name!” He answered and went inside the car.
I open the gate for him.
“What is your name?” I asked the young girl.
“I’am Andy. And she is my Mother Anita.” She answered smiling.
Goodness! Her mother and sister are kind while she’s a demon.
“Andy, let’s go inside. Help your Mom. We should talk properly.” I invited them.
I let her sit down on the couch and prepare some sandwiches and mango juice.
“You should eat and drink first to replenish your energy. How long did you wait at the gate?” I asked curiously.
“I think it’s 5 hours Ma’am Nalzen. Am I right Andy?” She asked Andy to confirm.
“Yes, Mom. I’m sorry to bother you, Ma’am.”She apologized.
“Oh don’t be sorry. I’m the one who needs to apologize. She should give you my number and not my address. You could not wait for too long.” I answered.
“It’s okay Ma’am. Andrea is back after seven years that she’s gone and working abroad. She said that she lost all her money and was accused by someone and she’s in jail right now. And you can help her.” Mrs. Anita explained.
“Don’t call me Ma’am. You can call me Nalzen. And don’t worry, I will try my very best to help her. I know who put her in jail and I’m going there to beg. But by the way, Andrea didn’t go home for seven years?” I asked.
It’s surprising to me. Aaron said that Andrea will go home twice a year here in the Philippines to visit her family. Where did she go during that time?
I think I already know the answer.
“Yes, we don’t have contact with her for seven years and My Mom is worried now that she’s in jail. She’s happy that she comes back.” Andy answered.
“Help her Ma’am. Please!” Mrs. Anita begged.
“Don’t worry, I will help. But how did you two survive? I mean, who is working?” I asked curiously.
“I’am working part-time at the fast food restaurant and my Mom will sometimes accept laundry. And we survived during those seven years.” Andy answered.
How could Andrea do this to her family?
She’s heartless!
“Okay, I will sponsor your school from now on Andy. I will let you study at an expensive University so that you will have a better future. And let me see, you could be my model! Stop working at the fast food and work for me.”I offered kindly.
These people deserve more than this! I think seven years of suffering is enough. I will help them.
“Oh, thank Ma’am! But you don’t have to do this. Helping Andrea out from the jail is enough.” Mrs. Anita answered crying.
“It’s okay, I’m glad to help. And Mrs. Anita. Don’t accept laundry anymore. You are too old for that. How about this, I’ll give you an allowance every Month and you can enjoy it for yourself.” I offered.
“Oh, Don’t do this Ma’am! Helping Andrea and Andy is enough. Thank you for that from the bottom of my heart.” She said sincerely.
“It’s not enough. You deserve it, Mrs. Anita! So, please accept it okay.” I answered smiling.
“Thank you so much, Ma’am,” Andy said crying.
It’s a tear of happiness and I’m glad that I can help.
“Don’t bother about that. I’m glad that I can help. Did you two come from the province? Do you have a place to stay? If not, then stay in here for a while. Tomorrow I will settle Andrea’s bail.” I offer.
“We don’t have a place to stay Ma’am but it’s too much if we sleep in here. Don’t worry, we are fine.” Mrs. Anita answered.
“No, It’s getting late and you have no place to sleep. You should stay in here for a while and we will find a place for you tomorrow.” I insist.
It’s getting late and it’s not safe for them outside.
“But, your husband won’t like it I guess.” Mrs. Anita said sadly.
“Oh, Don’t mind it. I can tame him you know!”I joke.
“Thank you so much, Ma’am.” They both said.
And I let them sleep in one of our guest’s rooms here downstairs.
And they finally rest after five hours of waiting for me.
And I guess they also went to jail to visit Andrea.
That bitch is heartless and now she’s bothering her Mom and sister. She left them just like nothing happened!
I can’t sleep and decided to call Julius. I have his number on his resume and I can still remember it.
Let me try.
And it rings! Thankfully it’s correct.
“Hello, who’s this? You’re disturbing me!” He answered angrily.
It’s too early to sleep! What he’s doing right now?
“Julius, Don’t tell me that you are already sleeping huh?” I asked.
“Nalzen, Is this you?” He asked excitedly.
“Yes, it’s me. Can we talk for a minute?”
“Sure, say it. What do you want to talk about?” He sounds excited!
” It’s about Andrea. What happened? Why did she in jail? Can you put her out? Or let her bail instead.” I asked for a favor but I don’t know if he will accept.
“No! There’s no Bail for that bitch! She annoyed me and I’m tired of that face!”And now he’s angry.
What should I gonna do?
“Can you forgive her? Please. Her mother and sister are here with me and asking for help.” I beg.
“Even if I forgive her Nalzen. Evette won’t!” He answered.
“And who is she?” I curiously asked.
“She’s the daughter of the ambassador of France. She’s spoiled and won’t forgive easily. Andrea’s case is attempted murder and trespassing. She requested no bail for her!” Julius explain.
What to do now? Andrea pissed off the rich heiress!
What to do with Mrs. Anita and Andy?
Now, my head is aching!
