Tales Of Love

She went inside and saw some mobs beating her little brother and dragging him toward the door. He was protesting against them while her mother was screaming to attract neighbors to their rescue.

When Aurora saw what was happening, She rushed to shield her brother thereby receiving some blows. ”Stop this nonsense and tell me who you are” Aurora Said trying to hold her brother in a hug. ”They were sent here by the agent who rented this apartment to us, to throw us out.

Grey was trying to make them understand that we still have three months before our rent expires. Instead of considering what he said, they started hitting him and wanted to throw us out” Aurora mother explained hurriedly amidst tears.

Turning to them, Aurora cursed them ”you pig-headed idiots, how can you beat a boy in his house who has done nothing except telling you the truth. I will call the police now if you don’t…”.

”Having just been released from the police station, you want to return there I guess?”.

Aurora was shocked, had someone else known about her arrest? raising her head, to look at the direction of the voice, she saw the manager of the company whose agent rented them that apartment.

”We have three months left before our rent expires, how can you just throw us out like that?” Aurora’s mother tried to explain to the manager.

“If anyone tries to stop you again, break their bones, ” the manager instructed the mob without paying attention to what Aurora’s mother said.

The mob was about to drag Aurora out when they heard ” your bones will be the first to be broken!”.

The mob paused, and looked at the man who just spoke. Seeing him made beads of sweat rose on their fore-heads. The manager felt his clothes drenched in sweat at the sight of the man.

Aurora and her mother were surprised at the stranger. They saw the manager shivering and his lips shaking.

Aurora recognised him at once, he was the man yesterday who made her drink his juice. This man that she tried to save yesterday led her to what made her lose her greatest treasure (her virginity). Who on earth was this man in front of her?

“President…. Axel….. you are here?” the manager was shivering. He was sweating now and he didn’t realise it yet. What does President Axel want here of all places?.

President Axel? Aurora muttered silently, so the man she had helped yesterday was the renowned president Axel of the Axel Group?.

She had never met nor seen his picture. He is a reserved man who’s name is almost known in the whole of Florence City. But his facial look, only a few have seen it. This was the man who had bailed her earlier she guessed.

Santiago Axel ignored the manager’s question and lit a cigarette. He was a tall handsome man who carried a cold chilling aura.

He’s arrogant and self composed. He took the cigarette to his mouth and held the lighter out, which was immediately taken by his assistant, Jasper Milo. He ignored the manager completely and treated him as air as he rested his eyes on Aurora Logan.

Aurora sensed that President Axel was going to look at her, hence she looked down, refusing to raise her head in order not to meet his gaze.

He stared at her petite figure. He owed his pride and reputation today to this girl in front of him. She’s beautiful no doubt, but seems to lack the resources to take proper care of herself.

He had already investigated her and knew she’s a poor daughter of Millie Logan, a retired matron at the orphanage.

Aurora was a daughter she adopted when retiring from the orphanage and raised her all to be the only sister her son Grey Logan have.

He stared at her as she remained head-bent. She saved him and he had to save her life and the only way he could save her was to have her all night. He wondered how she was able to stand on her feet so soon. She must be a very strong and brave girl.

He turned and puffed the smoke of his cigarette in the manager’s face. “What now, can’t I come visit my girlfriend?” Santiago finally gave an answer to the manager.

The manager started coughing hard. He placed his hand on his chest as he coughed harder. Santiago’s puffed smoke choked him, as his lungs seemed to be blocked.

Girlfriend? did he hear what president Axel said correctly?, he referred to this poor shit his girlfriend?

Wasn’t he told that she has no backing whatsoever? So she was actually the boss’s woman?

His life was on the line, he wanted to disappear out of sight to calm his nervousness.

Aurora froze at his words, she raised her head and met with his gaze; The corner of his lips gave a faint smile. Aurora turned her face away quickly.

Gush he’s so charming.

His smile almost left her in a daze. And just now, did he call her his girlfriend?. If indeed she lost her first time to him, she didn’t mind. Just the sight of him can melt the heart of the strongest morally upright girl.

“No…. Yeah… l mean yes you can, President Axel” the manager answered.

He became nervous, not knowing what next to do, he added an explanation on what he was not asked, “yeah, actually we… I mean I brought some boys to help clean up the entire apartment for Millie Logan.

I had known already that she was going to be the future mother-inlaw of President Axel. I then followed my intuition to bring boys to clean everywhere up”.

Aurora felt her brain almost splitting.

This man would definitely have excelled as an actor. He shouldn’t have been a manager.

Millie Logan opened her mouth agape, brought boys to clean her house? When had she become a super star that she needed such hefty muscled men to clean her apartment? she had never found a perfect liar in her entire life like this man.

Jasper Milo gave a chuckle and shook his head . “Fine then, start cleaning at once”.

“Wash the toilet and scrub the floors. Cut the grass outside and make Sure the kitchen is tidied up” Aurora instructed.This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Yes Miss” the manager replied, his shirt was drenched already and the beads of sweat on his forehead started dropping to the floor.

Turning to the two mobs he brought: “Get the brooms and mop and start working immediately”.

They both dashed into the kitchen before seeing the store located at an extreme corner of the apartment. They soon came out holding brooms and mopped.

Without waiting for instruction, one of them who was holding the mop went straight to the cushion and started using the mop on it. The manager rushed forward…
