The Billionaire I Fell In Love With

They were surprised but didn’t dare show it, they knew Catherine rarely do without make up, except when she’s going to bed.

“Jessica, get Ben for me immediately” Catherine said.

“Okay Madam Catherine” Jessie bowed and walked out of the room.

Ravin proceeded to Catherine’s toe nails and then brought out a set of nail polish when she was done.

“Which would you like ma’am?” Ravin asked.

“What’s the color of the dress I’m putting on Susan?” Catherine asked.

“One-piece black stretch jumpsuit” Susan said.

“Okay, use the black glossy one” Catherine said to Ravin who bowed.

Aimee was braiding Catherine’s hair when Jessica walked in with Ben.

“Good afternoon Madam Catherine” Ben bowed.

“What went wrong with the CCTV, it was blank for some hours” Catherine said.

“It w..” Ben was saying.

“Say nothing but the truth” Catherine said sternly.

“It was system error ma’am” Ben said and Catherine turned to him.

“System error? That has never happened” Catherine said, looking at him suspiciously.

“It has, ma’am, severally. You wouldn’t know because today is actually the first time i connected it to your laptop, it happens when the system is fluctuating and it always take a while before it becomes stable” Ben said convincingly.

“So.. you mean, whatever happened during the period the system was fluctuating would be wiped off?” Catherine asked.

“Yes ma’am”

“Is there no way it can be restored?” Catherine asked.

“No ma’am”

“That’s bad” Catherine sighed.

“You can leave” She said to him.

“Okay Madam Catherine” He bowed and turned to leave.

“If i find out what you told me is not true, I’m not going to spare you, trust me” Catherine said and Ben nodded.

“Anyway, get me one of Morgan’s bodyguards on your way out” She said and watched him leave.

Looks like he’s saying the truth but she’s not fully convinced yet.

“Emily, get me a glass cup of water” Catherine sighed.

“Okay Madam Catherine” Emily bowed before rushing out of the room.

Blaine walked in and bowed before Catherine.

“Blaine .. how are you?” Catherine smiled.

“Fine ma’am” Blaine said, maintaining his calm expression.

“Okay, i want to ask you a question and I’ll be glad if you tell me the truth” Catherine said.

Blaine panicked, thinking Catharine already knew about what he told Irish.

But if she knew, she wouldn’t be smiling.

She would have probably ordered him to get killed immediately.

“What happened while i was gone?” Catherine asked.

“Huh?”

“I mean.. what happened? Who came in? Who went out? Like.. what the hell happened?” Catherine asked with a sigh.

“Nothing unusual happened ma’am, no one came in, none went out” Blaine answered.

Catherine studied him to see if he was telling lies but his expression remained the same. She sighed frustratedly.. maybe nothing had happened.

Maybe it was just system error like Ben had said.

“Are you sure?” She asked Blaine.

“Yes Madam Catherine”Blaine said.

“Alright, you can leave” She said, he bowed and turned to leave when Emily walked in with a glass cup of chilled water in a small tray.

She was breathing heavily as she approached Catherine and Catherine knew instantly that something was wrong.

“Will you stop breathing in my water! What’s wrong?” Catherine asked.

“Madam Catherine, i just heard from one of the cooks that Irish ordered Maria to empty every pack of strawberry juice in the kitchen… into the sink!” Emily said.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
