Let’s go
On entering her room, she met Grandma Elizabeth, sitting on her bed, with her leg crossed and a glass of wine in her hands.
“Grandma” she called out, surprised to see her in her room. She wondered what she was doing in her room and on her bed, sipping her wine from the glass cup.
“You are Cinderella Mackenzie, right? How did you and my grandson meet? I have been wondering how the both of you met” Elizabeth paused as she sipped from her wine and then continued.
“Brandon is not into any woman, and all of a sudden he’s married to you who happened to be a mother to eight kids that look so much like him. Is this a coincidence or…..” she paused as she stood up from the bed and walked towards Hannah and whispered in her ear.
“I just found out your real name is Hannah Rodriguez,” Elizabeth said and Hannah felt a cold shiver run down her spine.
“I wonder why Brandon said your name is Cinderella Mackenzie instead of Hannah Rodriguez, or he doesn’t know about it?
Oh my goodness! I’m sure he doesn’t know about it. I wonder what else he doesn’t know about his dearest wife” She laughed and sipped everything from the glass and dropped it on the ground making the glass break into pieces. Hannah flinched.
“Oh, poor glass! This is gonna be you when I find everything about you and your motive here…. You better run away while you still have the chance” Elizabeth said and was about to walk away when Hannah spoke.
“I love Brandon and I’m going nowhere, ” Hannah said and Elizabeth frowned at her. Just the look Hannah wanted from her. She scoffed.
“I hope that love saves you by the time I’m done with you,” Elizabeth said
“It sure will, besides, love conquers all,” Hannah said and a rage of anger rushed through Elizabeth’s veins. She walked out of the room angrily.
Hannah sighed softly, she couldn’t believe she had said she loved the stupid CEO. She just can’t let Elizabeth walk over her as Rosa did in the past. She noticed the more she’s close to Brandon the more she gets pissed off, this time she’s gonna make sure she pisses her off all the time. She wanted war, then war it is.
She thought as she sat on the bed. Just then Brandon walked inside her room. She wondered if he was there to scold her for pissing off his grandma.
“What did you say to Grandma that made her angry?” Brandon asked curiously
“Are you here to shout at me because I made her angry?” Hannah asked and Brandon scoffed.
“Of course not. I have never seen my grandma this angry in a long time. No one has ever pissed her off this way, except my mom though and that was a long time ago and today you made her angry.
So I was wondering what you told her” Brandon said and Hannah rolled her eyes at him.
“Doesn’t matter” she said as she took her laptop and opened it. Brandon smiled as he stared at Hannah.
He felt happiness in his heart, knowing Hannah must have stood up to his grandma, that’s why she is angry. No one has ever stood up against her in a long time but Hannah did, he doesn’t know why but he was starting to like Hannah, he thought.
“Are you gonna keep staring at me or leave?” Hannah asked as she raised her head.
“I stay in this room, remember,” Brandon said and Hannah rolled her eyes.
He sat close to her staring at what she was doing at her laptop.
“Did you draft this out?” Brandon asked surprised to see what she was doing.
“Yeah, I’m planning on creating my own company although I’m still thinking of a name,” Hannah said, her eyes on her laptop.
Brandon stared at her and noticed how serious she was while staring at the laptop. She’s intelligent and smart and seems hard-working too. These are the kind of people my company wants. Ideas like this could blow BRC to the next level. He wouldn’t let this slip off his finger.
“There’s a vacancy in my company, why don’t you work for me? Of course, I’ll pay you” Brandon said and Hannah turned to him at once.
“I’m not interested,” she said as she closed her laptop and stood up from the bed.
“Okay, what if I make you the new COO?” Brandon asked and Hannah stared at him for some seconds before she finally spoke.
“And who was the former COO?” Hannah asked curiously.
“When my father was in the company, my mom was the COO, but grandma over throne her and took the position. She’s the COO but I’m willing to give you the position, besides Grandma no longer works for the company” Brandon said and Hannah hummed.
“Okay, fine. I accept it” Hannah said with a devilish grin on her face.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
“That’s good, I’ll call Liam to prepare all the necessary documents and your office too. You can resume whenever you want” Brandon said and brought out his phone from his pocket before walking out of the room.
Hannah chuckled softly, once Elizabeth heard the news, she was gonna be so angry that she might explode. I just can’t wait for that. That’s gonna be payback for trying to investigate my past, Hannah thought angrily.
But on second thought, she needed to do everything to cover up her past. She cannot afford to let Elizabeth find out about it because there are things she did in the past that she wasn’t proud of.
Meanwhile, The octuplets who pretended to be asleep when Hannah took them to their room, stood up from the bed.
Earlier, before they had dinner, they had overheard Grandma Elizabeth talking to someone on phone about their mommy and it seems like she was planning something evil. They decided to find out and they plan on keeping an eye on their new grandma.
They decided to split themselves.
“We should split, the eight of us can’t go spy on Grandma at once,” Allison said and Jayden hummed.
“I think you are right, the four of you girls will go spy on Aunt Jessica, I don’t trust her too. I think she’s up to something, while we boys will go spy on grandma” Jamie said and they nodded in response.
“Common, let’s do this and make sure none of us get caught. Are you guys ready?” Jayden asked and they nodded in response.
“Let’s go”
