CHAPTER 14

CHAPTER 14
“Had the invitations been sent out?” Axela asked Denise who was right next to her.
“Yes miss all have been sent out” Denise answered.
“Good, how about the fireworks?” Axela asked.
“The suppliers have already sent the packages we are expecting for it to arrive within this week” Denise answered.
“Harry how is the venue gonna being guard?” Axela asked Harry who was sitting across her.
“Clid and a team or agents have been contact, I have also prepared more men to roam outside the perimeter” Axela nodded.
“Few more weeks and the plan will surely step its place” Axela said.
Axela has been hiding for almost two months, she trained, prepared, planned, and investigated. For the past months Axela became colder than ever yet Harry can see she was just making sure her state of mind is in the best condition to fight against the monsters of her life.
“Dad what’s with the suit?” Britney asked her father who was busy picking out a suit.
“Well I received an invitation from one of the board members in the company, a huge event  will be held in the honor of the successful deal we had in Singapore” Britney got excited as well as her father told her what was happening.
“That’s great dad, shouldn’t you buy a new suit instead?” Britney suggested.
“That’s actually a great idea, will you accompany me to the store?” Her father said.
“Yeah sure, wait let me get my phone upstairs” Britney went up, before she went out of her room she decided to message Sky.
How have you been?
She did not wait for Sky’s response since her father was already calling her.
It went on like that Britney accompanied her father to pick up a new suite she even stag one dress for herself for she hoped her father would bring her to the party, ever since her father remarried she has always treated her new mother as like her own.
Then the grand party or shall we call ball came, Britney came along her father Jordan Swayers.
“Dad, what event are they celebrating again?” Britney asked as soon as they walked in the venue, it can be seen that the grand ball is not just for any celebration.
“It’s a victory party sort of, we’re celebrating the successful deal our company had in Singapore” Her dad replied, Britney roam her eyes around the room but she sensed something was off yet she did not mind it and they both went and sat in the table.
“Your mom is actually coming too she’ll just be a little bit late since she had a homecoming to go to earlier” Britney nodded as a reply.
“Wine sir?” the waiter offered them wine, it was surreal prestigious events can only have these type of services, that’s what Britney had thought.
The event went on and it was just a dinner gathering at the moment with music and an all you can eat buffet and all you can drink station. 
They were silently having their happy evening.
“Mr. Davis the deal was as easy as melting cotton candy” Jordan was so full of himself.
“Oh Swayers, Singapore is a rising country itself they are usually good at handling deals” Mr. Davis said while holding a glass of wine.
“Well they could not pass off such great deal I had for them “Jordan giggled to himself even though the truth is he did nothing with the deal but just get recognition because of his position. 
Their giggles were cut off by the sound of the microphone.
“Good evening everyone, welcome” It was Jenson, Jordan and Britney proudly clapped.
“Today we celebrate not just a success in our company, but also to welcome you all our very own CEO” Jordan and Britney’s wide smiles slowly faded when they heard what Jenson said.
“CEO?” Britney questioned her brother’s intro.
“Axela Vanzola” as soon as Jenson introduced Axela, Britney stood up and looked at the main entrance of the hall to see the door slowly opening, reviling the most lovely, sexy Axela they have ever saw. A black silky long gown fitting all Axela’s curves and with a long slit on the right it reviled Axela’s porcelain toned legs. Paired with a gold stiletto heels beaded with rhinestones with a height of 4 inches. Axela walked through the red carpet slowly but surely every step Axela took it made Britney frown even more, even Jordan was confused at what was happening he knew he was the supposed CEO after the event because of the success of his team.
All eyes were at Axela until she arrived at the stage and stood head high in front of everyone.
Jenson handed over the microphone to Axela, she took a deep breath before even saying a single word to the microphone.
“Good evening everyone, some of you may know me, some of you may have not I am Axela Vanzola daughter of Ivan Vanzola the late CEO and as I have come in front of you I am not taking over the whole company that my late father has left me” Axela proudly said, she looked at Jenson who gave her a proud smile as he clapped together with the audience.
“NO!” the attention was driven to the angry voice of Jordan, walked close to the stage which made Jenson move close to Axela incase his father might do something unacceptable to Axela.
“You are not taking my company away from me!” everyone was astounded of the tone Jordan had.
“Dad calm down” Britney tried to calm her father down, Jordan was on fire of anger.
Axela stayed emotionless in front of everyone.
“How dare you? I am still your father Axela you may not over rule my decision” Jordan said, after that Axela raised a brow at him
“Father? As far as I could remember my father has been dead for years” Axela said.
“I am your guardian!” Jordan was about to come forward to Axela yet Britney and Jenson quickly stopped him.
“Dad, please” Britney tried to calm him down.
“Stop it dad” Jenson said, because of that Jordan stopped and averted his attention to his son.
“Stop? Why the hell are you stopping me Jenson I am your father” Jordan said, Jenson let out a deep sigh.
“But you are not the boss of Axela” Jenson said.
“I am her guardian, is that not clear enough to you all” Jordan said. Axela went down.
“No it’s not” they looked at her. Axela slowly walked towards them.
She extended her right hand to signal her men to give her the documents she needed.
“This is the letter of the court, Jordan Swayers and Beatrice Swayers are no longer the rightful guardians of Axela Vanzola” As soon as Jordan heard it he grabbed the envelop and read the document and that’s when he quickly moved his head right to left.
“No this is fake!” Jordan could not believe what he was holding a document ripping off him and his wife as guardians of Axela.
Axela stayed calm while Jordan was being hysterical.
“Countless judges and attorneys can verify that, that document you have in your hand is as legal as it could be” Axlea said, which made Jordan even more hysterical. 
“So from now on, all I have will be mine and mine only” Alexa teased Jordan and this time even Britney has been annoyed by her.
“No!” Jordan screamed to the top of his lungs.
“Dad just accept the fact” Jenson said to his father to convince him.
“No! There is no reason for us to be disowned of being her guardian Jenson, there is conspiracy in the court” Jordan said, he was now turning red from his anger.
Alexa but in their conversation.
“There are more than reason for you both to be tarred form being my guardians, proof of you stealing money from my money has been found so don’t even say you are still my guardians” Axela said, she was at the peck of being angry yet she controlled herself.
“Axela is right” a man from the crowd appeared.
“Stealing is one of the reasons you are removed from her rights, you should have known as soon as Axela turn 16 all her possessions can only be used by herself only” The man said, Jordan frowned from the confusion of who was the man.
“And who the hell are you?” Jordan annoyingly asked the man.
“Alber Laycon, Axela’s new guardian” The man was Alber Laycon the one and only god father of Axela who she knew about.
“W—hat?” Jordan stammered from confusion.
“Surprised right? Well you shouldn’t be you should have known that as soon as Axela turns 18 all your happy stealing will soon be over” Alber reminded Jordan.
“And speaking of Axela’s age” Alber went to the stage and grabbed the microphone.
“Ladies and gentlemen, let us all celebrate Axela Vanzola for her 17th birthday. Happy birthday Axel my dear” Axela nodded as Alber greeted her a happy birthday.
Everyone clapped as they all greeted Axela a happy birthday, because of frustration Jordan grabbed Britney and went as fast as they could to get out of the hall.
Axela secretly smiled to herself as soon as Jordan and Britney ran off the venue.
JORDAN slammed the table of their living room as soon as they arrived. Beatrice was surprised she was about to go to the venue of Axela’s grand ball.
“Hon what’s wrong?” Beatrice quickly ran to where her husband was and asked.
“That bitch, she has set this all up” Jordan was catching his breath as he said those words.
“That bitch? Who?” Beatrice asked, then Britney came to where they were.
“Axela, she framed us” Britney said in anger as she walked in.
“What? How?” Beatrice asked.
“Our title as her guardians are now striped off without us even noticing it” Jordan explained to Beatrice. 
“What how?” Beatrice shouted as soon as she heard what her husband said.
“She can’t do that!” Beatrice said.
“She has evidence” Britney said.
“Evidence of what?” Beatrice angrily asked.
“Evidence of you guys stealing from Axela’s possession” Jenson suddenly came in the scene.
“And how the hell did she even have evidence?” Beatrice asked Jenson.
“Ask you husband how he was caught in debt by one of the persons he was playing poker with” Jenson looked at his father as he explained to everyone.
“You all know that theft is not a pity matter especially to the person who you all are stealing at, all transitions you have all done using the money that was supposed to be Axela’s are recorded now you all shall pay the price” Jenson was about to leave when his father grabbed his hand to stop him.
“It was you wasn’t it? Tell me?” His father shouted at him.
“No it was not me, it was all of you all along you are the main reason why you will be suffering” Jenson said, he shrug off his father’s hold at him and left the home immediately.
“SO what happened?” Axela asked Jenson on the phone.
“They are a mess, hysterical and shouting that’s what I have seen in the house “Jenson said.
“Good, how is Banjay?” Axela asked.
“I have already booked us both a ticket to Philippines” Jenson said.
“Keep safe okay, Harry has put you both in the hands of Joe I’m sure your both gonna be fine” Axela said.
“I know, and we will be safe and so do you keep out of their sight as for now” Jenson reminded Axela.
“I will. I’ll contact you both soon as you get settled” Axela was relieved that now she is having less worries to worry at.
“Okay bye” As soon as Axela dropped the call she went to her basement, she was at her house where Dale and Clid went.
After more than an hour of letting out steam she went up to her room.
DAYS passed, Axela stayed at her covered home while Harry was out at the open to fix some entrants she asked him to do.
SKY was with Britney for  two months now, ever since Axela's party ended Britney called Sky to comfort her, her father's credit card was empty and they were struggling.
"Hey its gonna be okay you know?" Sky told Britney as he sat next to her as she cried in her bed.
"No it's not and you know that, prom is in three days and I have not yet paid the designer who is making my gown" Sky sigh as Britney stood up and wander on her room.
" we're so poor" Britney grabbed the remote control on the side table and turned on the TV.
"We can't afford to even buy Netflix anymore" Sky went beside her.
" Look money does not define you okay" Sky said Britney looked even sader.
"Come here" Sky pulled her in a hug, but Sky felt different he actually did not feel in love as he hugged her, they have been dating for months now yet he could not even get himself to kiss Britney.
On the day of the Prom.
"You look beautiful" Sky said to Britney
"Thank you, well I could have looked gorgeous if I wore the dress I had initially wanted" Britney said, due to her lack of money she could not pay the designer she wanted instead she wore a dress which was for rent obviously.
"Let's go" as they went to their prom Sky could not understand but he was looking for a particular person.
"Hey you look handsome dude" Dale and Jon came to where Sky was the three complimented each other.
"You know what surprised me, is that you both came to prom without even a partner" Sky said, both looked at each other as they were caught of guard.
"Uhmm, well my girlfriend will not like it if I dance with a gurl whi was not her" Jon said.
"Yeah mine too, my wifey might kill the girl instantly" Dale said.
"Oh come on Dale that's impossible" Sky said and they laughed.
"Well it is possible" Dale added.
"Wait, you have a girlfriend?" Sky asked Jon and he nodded.
"And you have a Wife?" Sky asked Dale.
"Well not technically, she's still my girlfriend but I consider her as my wife" Dale answered.
"I've been to off lately, I did not know you both have girlfriends now" Sky said, they laughed. Dale placed a hand on his shoulder.
"Yeah dude you've been to busy with your Britney girl, what's up with you two?" Dale asked.
"Well we're dating I guess?" Sky answered.
"You guess? " Jone questioned ehat Sky answered.
"What do you mean by,"I guess"?" Dale asked.
"Well we've been dating for months now yet I feel nothing as days pass by, I couldn't even get myself to kiss her in any means" both were shocked at what Sky reviled to them.
"Dude what do you mean?" Jon asked.
"What I mean to say is we're dating yet I like someone else" Sky said.
"And who might that be?" Jon asked.
"Someone who I haven't seen for months now" Sky's voice decrease.
"Let us guess" Jon and Dale looked at each other.
"Axela Vanzola" Sky gave off a sigh as soon as both his friends knew who he wanted to be with.
"Its just that even only for a few weeks Axela did not really care about anything and I saw in her eyes the emotion I have always been yearning for" Sky explained.
" Well dude we really had a feeling you liked her" Dale said.
"We just wanted you to tell us" Jon said.
"But dude you do know she is nowhere to be found right?" Jon asked.
"I know, its just I have a gut she is just somewhere near and that I could easily find her anytime soon. You know I was so excited to come to prom" Sky said.
"Because of Britney?" Sky shooked his head.
" You would wear the best suit?" He shooked his head again.
"No, its because I thought I would see her here again after months" Sky said.
"Ohhh" both said.
"Well dude what are you waiting for go find her there is still 4 hours left of this day" Dale said Sky smiled and left them both.
"He's screwed" Dale said as soon as Sky went walking away from them to potentially look for Axela.
" Totally " Jon added.
"Shall we tell Axela?" Jon asked Dale.
"Not yet, Axela wants to be quiet right now she's busy monitoring Satrovas" Jon nodded to what Dale said.
Hours have passed yet Sky could not find Axela he has looked on all corners of the venue even tha outside but still no sign of Axela. Sky was determined to find her and that is when someone texted him.
Unknown number
-Axela is at the far east look for her quick.
And because of the text Sky was determined to find Axela at tell her what he really feels for her.
SUDDENLY as Axela was at her table when her sensors picked up a huge object outside of her house.
“Siana, open camera 1” Axela order her virtual assistant.
Axela saw in her TV the view of camera 1 and there she was stunned to see two figures a male and a female waving, the man was lying down and the woman was struggling to even pick the man up.
“Closer Siana” As soon as the camera view closer Axela saw the two figures who was at the front of her house was Clid and Dale but something was off, Axela’s eyes slightly widened as she saw blood on both of their bodies.
“Siana open the gate” While the gate was opening slowly Dale and Clid struggled to walk in, then Axela arrived and helped them.
“What happened to both of you?” Axela asked as soon as they went in.
“Dale is badly hurt” Clid said even her hard expression changed as she explained the state of her lover.
“Satrovas, did they?” Clid stayed quiet that’s when anger spiked Axela. 
“Get Dale to the room in the second floor I’ll call the doctor” Clid nodded and walked in with a heavy Dale in her hands.
Dale was already stable.
“What happened?” Axela asked Clid.
“I don’t really know I just saw him like this and I knew who could only do it and that is Satrovas, so I quickly got here and thankfully no one was following us” Clid said.
“Okay it’s better if you both stay here, I’ll call Harry” Clid nodded and went back to Dale’s room.
“Harry?” 
“My lady what’s wrong?” Axela can sense the worry in Harry’s voice.
“Satrovas are on the move, Dale he is badly injured” Harry gasped
“Where is he?” 
“He is here with me Clid is here too, I want you to make sure Jenson and Banjay are safe they are moving” Axela reminded Harry of his job to protect her precious family.
“I will, you should also be careful new reports have came in from the organization Satrovas ruled over Handovas house, Satrovas is making sure they take over everything” Harry said.
“I know I just need to make sure that Balderon Algama is still at our side, we need them to gain power against Satrovas” Axela said.
“I’ll call the headquarters for more reports” Harry said.
“Tell them Clid and Dale are under me by now”
“Okay my lady, noted” Harry said.
“Okay, I need to go back inside maybe Dale is already awake” As soon as Axela dropped the call she went back in and found Clid talking to Dale.
“Your awake” Clid and Dale looked at her.
“Yeah, thanks for the help” Axela stayed silent.
“You will be both staying here, you are under my supervision now, don’t worry about the organization Harry is taking care of it” Axela said.
“Thank you Ax” Clid said.
“Now I want to know how you got cornered by Satrovas?” Axela asked Dale.
“Everything happened in a split of second I did not get the right visuals about what happened, the only thing I knew is that they were armed with a lot of guns and from the look of it I can tell they were brand-new” Dale explained. Because of what Dale said Axela feared that Satrovas has already ruled over Framela Eliet the house of the org that makes and trains the members and makes the weapons and explosives.
“You both take a rest, I’ll be at my room” Both nodded at Axela.
As soon as she arrived in her room she got to work, contacting all connections she had to trace Satrovas and making sure she was watching them in all the moves they make.
DAYS passed, Axela was just standing in the corner as she watched how Clid took care of Dale in any way possible, just like feeding him, helping him move his body, guiding him to walk and even making sure Dale was comfortable in his position. Axela longed for the happiness Clid is feeling right now she can see it in her eyes the love and happiness of being with someone who loves you.
Axela lowered her head and eyes as she felt disappointed with her life.
“Ax?” Axela raised her head back up when she heard Clid calling her, she walked towards them.
“Have you eaten already?” Clid asked, Axela just slowly shocked her head as an answer.
“’Come I cooked chicken curry” Clid said, Axela nodded.
“How are you?” Axela asked Dale as soon as she walked close to him while Clid went to the kitchen counter to get her food.
“Feeling a lot better” Dale said. 
Clid came and brought Axela’s food in her hand. Axela started eating as soon as Clid brought it on the table. 
"So what's your plan?" Out of nowhere Clid asked Axela yet she did not budge and just put her attention on the food.
"None" Clid and Dale looked at each other as soon as they heard her.
DAYS passed, Axela was still secretly monitoring on Satrovas and every move they make she had an updated list of the person she should take a look at which was from Harry. As she was at her room a sudden knock was heard.
" Come in" Axela said the door slowly opened.
"Ax, I don't want to make you made at some point but I heard Sky is captured by Satrovas" and this caught Axela's attention slowly she looked at Clid.
"What do you mean?" In an urgen voice Axela said to Clid which actually surprised Clid.
