The Billionaire’s Pretty Thief

If Crystal never had the urge to go in for a deal before, she did now, like seriously, this is the best news she has had to hear for a while, it is just the best.

Looking at Max now, she still pulled back the urge to jump into such a deal, at least not when it wasn’t clear how.

“How then will the money help me when you will still be the one to control the company?” she questioned looking at him straight in the eyes.

“See, Crystal, let’s look at things from the bright side, and I promise you this after the money is ours, I will make sure I restore the company, then after that, I am going to give it to you, trust me on that,” he let out trying to convince her.

Things weren’t still clear for Crystal she wanted more explanation, she needed to know these things more, and an explanation would be best for her. Throughout the years she has been stealing from these wealthy billionaires, Crystal has never had an offer of thirty million, the highest was twenty million, and that was six months ago.

Maybe her game was suddenly getting better. “Wait, what’s your deal in this, Maxwell?” She inquired calling him using his first name.

Each time she did so, it meant that she was fed up with him still treating her as though she was still ten year olds. years old full-grown lady who has decided to claim her rights, this time, she is bent on recovering the company.

Max leaned on his office chair, using his thumb and forefinger, he smeared his mustache together, smoothing it as much as possible.

“Well, I will have a part of the money, and with that, I will live your life, going somewhere to start my own life, somewhere far away,” said Maxwell.

Crystal suddenly wore a solemn face, before Max had come to her after noticing that his senior brother and wife had died leaving their ten-year-old daughter, he was forced to come back to them, taking precautions to try his life out in Bepanda, as he became her only family member, opting up to become her guardian. She felt like tears were going to pour out of her eyes streaming down her cheeks, blinking severally, she tried her best to avoid the tears from flowing down.

“Max? You know I’ll never want you to leave the house right?” Crystal demanded mouthing softly. Max smiled slightly, although he didn’t want it to show, not in the least, so he said resting the blame more on his niece.

“No, you want me to live, Crystal, my life is already so miserable, especially with the stress you constantly make me undergo.

Each time you claim your late father’s properties, I just cry because I had been a fool for thirteen years, settling down in a place that isn’t mine and would never be mine.

I think leaving is the best thing for me to do now, so I will leave,” he explained.

Staring at Crystal from half-closed lips, he noticed her sad expression, and this made him understand that his niece has a very feeble heart which he can control at any time and as it pleases him.

They sat quietly, ears one another’s heavy breathing. A look at Crystal and Maxwell knew the victory was his, deserved it and that was it.

Tell me about the man I am supposed to steal from him, and when that is supposed to be done, I will set to it as soon as possible” Crystal muttered aloud, allowing Maxwell to hear it. Immediately, a brilliant grin flashed his image, as he exposed his white pair of clean, white and teeth.

“I knew you wouldn’t want to miss this golden opportunity, Crystal, that’s why you remain my favorite baby niece,” he explained. Throwing her head behind, she laughed out. Her anger wouldn’t make her lose such a golden opportunity, she needed the money, so, she would do everything under her control to have it.

“Alright, I know right? now shoot, I have to go and buy some clothes, I don’t love the old ones anymore,” she said addressing her uncle. Their bond was more than that of an uncle and niece relationship, they were more like business partners with the exception that Uncle Maxwell was the boss, he ruled her, he managed her father’s business and everything that concerned them.

Glaring at her pretty face now, he prepared himself to make an awesome speech, one that would make her long to talk more and head to executing it.

Max was happy because his niece was falling for his plan once more, he needed her to obey him as much as possible because he needed the money. Clearing his throat, he started describing the nature of her new job.

“Well! Crystal, our target is Mr. Blaze Jadiel Lewis, the richest billionaire in Douala. He is going to be at the club tonight, and I pray you be at your top-notch, seduce him as much as possible, lure him to your end and when he’s ready to settle with you, but the portion in his drink and let him sleep his life out,” he explained.

The deal was always the same as before, but then, it was tonight kind of rushed.

“What? tonight? why are you telling me now? I barely have time to prepare,” she shouted raking her hair. This caused Maxwell to chuckle, she loved seeing his niece go all crazy just for the sake of business, for the money, but then, he had to make her chill.

“Come down, Crystal, it’s still 11:10 a. m. so you have enough time to settle for tonight. He wouldn’t be turning in the club till nine p. m. so you have the whole time to do what you want before then,” he advised.

Crystal’s blood was already boiling, she had the anxiety to do this, and she was ready for it.© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

“I’ll do it,” she said starting to rise from the chair. Maxwell opened his drawer, removed a bundle of money, and handed, d it to her.

“Here, Crystal, go and make yourself beautiful for tonight,” he announced. Grabbing it, she happily left his office.
