Chapter 12: The Script
Chapter 12: The Script
“You will see Farrah after our dinner tomorrow. My secretary will give you the detailed information about
our fake romance. Study it thoroughly tonight. There should be no room for mistake in front my parents.
My dad has a sharper eye on that.” Bill added seriously.
Arabella realized his seriousness on this matter. She knew that he couldn’t afford to disappoint his
parents.
She had the most important role in this show.
“For such an important role, why me?”
There was a moment of silence.
“I trust you.” Bill then whispered in her ear and pat a quick, gentle kiss on her forehead then walked
away.
Arabella was stunned by his words. She was left in his office alone and still couldn’t move. “I trust you.”
These words were too powerful. ‘What? How can the mighty CEO in the city trust her?’ ‘Is it a
compliment for her or just another scheme?’ her thoughts were flooding uncontrollably.
Arabella went out and the secretary handed her two pages document with a smile.
She was still in a daze while exiting out from the building, but this time she walked calmly and freely
unlike the other day that she terrifyingly ran out for her life.
Arabella went home directly. She took a shower to freshen up herself, but the conversation with Bill Sky
earlier kept on lingering in her mind. She needs to make a decision tonight. Actually, it was not for her
to make, Bill Sky had already decided. Bill Sky left her with no choice.
To divert her attention, Arabella went out for a quick grocery shopping. This time, she had left her
disguise at home and wore her true outstanding beauty outside.
While Arabella was busy pushing her cart, people around her couldn’t help glancing at her. Men and
women couldn’t help but to appreciate her goddess like beauty. She stayed calm even all eyes were on
her. She was actually used to it even if she only wore a basic white shirt and ripped jeans.
Suddenly her shopping cart was bumped.
“Oh, sorry.” A melodious voice of a girl came in front of her.
Arabella raised her sight to the owner of the voice and to her surprised, she saw Jayson, her ex-
boyfriend with a sexy brunette girl clinging to his arm like she was glued firmly on it.
She was wearing a very fitted short black dress. Her curves and white long legs were exposed vulgarly.
Heels as 6 inches high that completed her seductive and daring look.
One looked, Arabella already knew the couple standing in front of her.
Arabella saw Jayson was also stupefied. They never thought they will meet again with Margaret on his
side.
Jayson’s eyes were fixed on her face with an embarrassed hint on his eyes.
There was an awkward emotion on his face like Jayson wanted to let go of his arm from Margaret’s
clutch.
Margaret felt Jayson’s sudden change of mood, so she tightly hugged his arm more.
“Hi! When did you come back?” To cover the awkwardness, Margaret began the conversation.
Arabella smiled “Weeks ago. It’s nice to see you again Margaret. How are you?” Her voice is friendly
and full of confidence.
Arabella was also shocked by the accidental reunion, but for some any reason she was feeling relaxed
by their presence in front of her.
Arabella couldn’t find any anger in her heart, whereas she felt easy at all.
Maybe the devious matter of Bill Sky helped her to forget the hatred of heart for Jayson.
Jayson was still caught in an awkward position. His face showed unstable emotions.
Margaret staggered and still glued her two arms into Jayson to make Arabella feels jealous, but to her
disappointment Arabella just let go of a sweet smile which made Margaret more frantic.
“I am fine. We are fine and happy. I hope you already know that I am pregnant with Jayson’s child.
Jayson and I were planning to hold a wedding sooner. I hope you can come. After all, you are still our
friend.” She boastfully claimed to show her that Jayson is hers now.
Ever since Margaret had a great desire for Jason but Jason had only an eye for Arabella that is why
she waited for them to be separated and plotted her scheme to hook up with Jayson. Now that she
succeeded, she would not let anyone take Jayson away from her.
“Sure. I will.” Arabella quickly answered with a beautiful smile on her face.
Arabella’s smile made Margaret angry. How can she be so easy after meeting her long-time boyfriend
with her? Is this some kind of humiliation on her part that she was not even consider as a threat to
Arabella?’
Margaret was expecting to see the mockery and jealousy on Arabella’s face, but she couldn’t see
nothing but a sweet calm face.
“Do you have a new boyfriend?” Margaret asked as she was up to something.
Arabella was stunned for a while and she also saw Jayson glared at her seriously.
“Yes.” Arabella smiled with her beautiful white teeth exposed.
What else could she possibly answer?
If Arabella said NO, this boastful Margaret would laugh at her triumphantly. Margaret would surely
celebrate her winning with Jason. As for Jason, she would just give false hope to him. After all, Jayson
would have to face his responsibility to be a father and soon he will have a family with Margaret.
For now, Arabella should be happy for them and she should also concentrate first the matter with Bill
Sky. She didn’t want the distraction.
Margaret saw Jason’s face suddenly became sulky and sad and his eyes fixated to Arabella’s face.
“Oh. Really? Sweetheart, have you heard that? Arabella has a new lover.” Margaret obviously said that
on purpose to make Jason realized to give up on Arabella.
“Who? Is he as capable of, my Sweetheart here? I bet he can’t be compared to my love.” Margaret was
referring to Jason as she knew Jayson is next to Bill Sky. There is no way Arabella could get closer to
the mighty Bill Sky and Margaret is 100% sure of that.
“Enough. Let’s go!” Jayson’s spoke irritatingly with a cold voice.
Arabella saw Jayson felt embarrassed about the situation and annoyed with Margaret’s questions.
Jayson then pushed their cart and grabbed Margaret away.
“Well, go ahead. Please take care.” Arabella felt Jayson’s sadness from his last words before leaving.
After hearing these caring words from Jayson to Arabella, Margaret smiles stiffened as she looked at
Arabella with disdain. It was too obvious that Jayson is still in love with Arabella and it made Margaret
sick. Margaret needs to make Arabella disappear in their life or else Arabella would be a big threat to Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
their relationship. She couldn’t afford to lose Jason.
Not now. Not ever.
Arabella went back home and cooked her dinner. She used to cook and eat by her own. If not for
Farrah who always barged into her house, she would feel alone.
Arabella became worried by the thought of her best friend. It’s the second night that they been
separated.
She needs to help her. It is only Farrah who’s true to her. When she was abroad, it was Farrah who
made her updated about her family, Jason and Capital Z. It was Farrah who always visited her family
on behalf of her absence. It was Farrah who’s there by her side when Jayson broke up with her. It was
Farrah who’s there when her family became a mess. Farrah never left her.
How could she leave her best friend behind? Arabella helplessly sighed.
She suddenly flipped a paper from her bag. It was like a script about their so-called romantic
relationship.

These are the basic information she needs to memorize aside for other answers she needs to
memorize like:
Q: Who did the first kiss?
A: Bill
Q: Who approached first?
A: Bill
Q: What made you fall in love with Bill?
A: He is sweet and a nice guy.
‘Lame! These answers were too lame.’ She couldn’t stand to continue reading all the questions and
answers so she flipped to the next page.
The second page is all about Bill’s information. His likes and dislikes. Of course, how can she portray a
good loving girlfriend if she doesn’t know her boyfriend well?
Arabella didn’t want to know about him. She already knew how handsome and hot this man, but for
some reason her heart wanted to know him more.
Bill Sky
Age: 28
Hobby: Swimming
‘Gosh!’ Arabella gulped. Images of him wearing a trunk suit only with a massive masculine body and
wet looked hair brushing his wet hair with his fingers. ‘So hot!’ Arabella exclaimed as she felt hot all
over her body and she felt her arousal inside.
‘What Am I Thinking?’ Arabella tried to stop her imagination and the sensation that brought her before it
will worsen.
She then continued reading. Her eye caught its interest in his food like and dislike.
Like Food: Steak and sweets
Dislike Food: Spicy
Allergic: Seafoods
She let go of a big smile. One thing she learned in this world, if you are going to a war, you should
know first your enemy.
In the first place, why did she have to agree with Bill Sky? She is not his employee. They were
complete strangers.
Why should she help him? They don’t have anything.
Why should she agree with him like a puppet on his hand? She is not.
Arabella was born with great intelligence. Bill Sky should not underestimate her.
She refused to be controlled by Bill Sky. Never she will be a puppet of him.
She’ll give him his own doze of medicine.
The next morning, she was awakened by a phone call. It was from an unknown number.
She thought that it was Bill again so she lazily dragged her phone to her ear.
“Hello?” Arabella lazily said.
“My daughter. It’s Dad.” Her father’s voice came out from the other line.
She’s shocked. Her anger suddenly appeared.
“What have you done to our family and mom?” Arabella couldn’t contain her anxiety towards her father.
“I’ll explain to you. See me tomorrow at home.” Her father quickly replied.
“I don’t know dad. I will have to think about it. I’m not sure if I’m ready to face you yet.” Her voice was
mixed with sadness and hatred.
“I understand Baby. I will wait for you tomorrow. I love you. Please take care of yourself. Bye.” Her
father replied with longing and sadness in his voice, then he ended the call.
Arabella was not ready to face her father yet. Whatever he had to say, Arabella wasn’t sure if his worry
will suffice his anger.
He was used to be a sweet and a loving father to the point that she wanted to get a husband in the
future as same as her father’s traits. He spoiled her a lot. They were very close with each other.
Her thoughts were cut because of another phone call from an unknown number.
“Hello.” Arabella quickly answered.
“Don’t be late.” A powerful voice came out.
“I’ll be there on time.” She quickly answered.
“Good Girl.” Without waiting for her to reply Bill ended his call just like that.
It seemed that he just called her to remind her their appointment with his parents so Arabella wouldn’t
have any excuse like she forgot their schedule.
‘Okay then, I will be very good for you tonight Bill Sky.’ Arabella annoyingly swore.
She prepared herself tonight for Bill Sky. She put on her usual disguise. Her baggy clothes paired with
sneakers. She didn’t wear any make up aside from her freckles covering almost her white face.
Now it’s showtime.
