Chapter 36. The Announcement
“Open it” Mason replied and Alvin nodded and opened the box.
A giant deadly spider came into his view and he screamed immediately. Mason’s eyes darkened as he stared at it, he picked the spider up by the leg.
“Boss..” Alvin covered his mouth so he wouldn’t scream.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
How could he keep up an alive deadly spider with his hands? Alvin wanted to puke at the scary sight of it.
Mason took the letter from the box and passed it to Alvin.
“Read it” he ordered.
Alvin opened the letter and began reading.
“I’ve been waiting for you my dear friend, do you like the gift, don’t worry you’ll see more than skeleton and knife painting” Alvin’s eyes widened when he was done.
“This is a harassment boss! How long has this been going on, should I call the police or maybe tell your grandpa?” Alvin looked worried.
Mason scoffed and stared at the spider that had been dangling and trying to bite him.
“Put the letter back inside the box,” he said and Alvin did as told, he put the spider back in before covering the box.
“Throw it away,” he ordered.
“Boss” Alvin looked worried.
“Now,” he said with a black look.
Alvin nodded and took the box then left the office. Mason sighed and rested his head backward.

MY MODELS★
“And take five,” the manager said and the cameras stopped shooting Regina.
She began taking off the giant earrings from her ears when Blake suddenly came to her.
“Hey, we need to talk” he grabbed her forearm and pulled her in the direction of another room.
When they were alone, Regina crossed her arms under her breast and gave him a look.
“Why are you looking for me? I thought you dumped me to be with Ivy so what’s the matter now? Are you missing me too soon?” She smirked.
“Yes Regina, I dumped you to be with Ivy because I fell in love with her, fûcking accept it and stop messing with her!!” He warned her.
“Excuse me?” Regina gasped a little.
“I know you’re behind everything that’s happening online, you followed us to the restaurant and secretly took that picture then told the whole world that we’ve broken up so they would come to Ivy again!” He glared at her.
“Again, what? Now that is reaching!” Regina fumed.
“You think I’m reaching? Well how wouldn’t I because you did it once, what are you not capable of Regina? Listen, stay away from Ivy or you will see my bad book!” He gave her a bad look before storming out of the room.
Regina was still angry, how dare he come in here and accuse her of something she didn’t do all for that wretched granddaughter of Delgado.
“I will give you and your little new girl something not reaching,” she said angrily before storming out of the room.

DELGADOS” MANSION★
Maya kept checking her account balance and it suddenly came up. She happily just got out of bed before running to the old man’s study.
“Dad” she barged in without knocking and hugged him tight.
“Thank you so much, Dad,” she said happily.
“The next time you misbehave then I will do more than freeze your account, I will make you divorce my son and leave this family without any custody of your kids,” the old man told her and her face turned pale.
“Yes… Yes, Dad, I promise not to cause any more trouble” she muttered and left the study room.
When she got back to her room, she dialed Agnes’ number.
“Hey bestie, I’m on my way over to your place” Maya informed her before hanging up.
She got dressed and applied her makeup before stepping out of the mansion.
“Carlos!” She called and Carlos ran to her immediately.
“I’m going out, here” She threw her car keys for him.
He nodded and opened the door for her, she stepped in and put on her black shades. Carlos entered the driver’s seat and began driving.
•••
The car stopped in the garage of a big house. Carlos got down and opened the door for Maya immediately.
Maya came down and took off her shades before walking in.
“Agnes!!” She shouted and the door opened, revealing a woman of Maya’s age but sexy in stature just like Maya.
The two women rushed to give themselves a tight hug before they pulled away.
“Look at you Agnes, you look so good” Maya complimented her.
“Thanks and you look..” Agnes stared at Maya from head to toe. “Different, like you haven’t been eaten well, your skin is a bit dark too, honey are you okay?” She looked worried.
Maya turned embarrassed Instead but she cursed Skyler in her mind.
“I was just busy, oh where is your daughter?” Maya looked around.
“She’s not back from school yet, she will be graduating soon,” Agnes replied.
“I’m sure she would have become my beautiful, Mason would like her” Maya smiled.
“I thought Mason was married” Agnes narrowed her eyes.
“He is but it’s not serious, don’t worry your daughter is his taste” Maya chuckled and Agnes held her hands.
“Let’s go in, I have a lot of things to tell you!!” She grabbed Maya and began pulling her in.

EVENING★
Blake: ??? ?’? ???????, ?????? ???? ???????? ?? ??? ????.
Ivy sighed and stood up from her head, she went to peep from the window and saw Blake outside.
He saw her and nodded at her. She sighed and grabbed her big jacket before stepping out of her room.
She went outside and walked towards Blake.
“Why are you here?” She asked.
“I just want to see you, how are you doing?” He moved closer to her but she moved back.
“Bad, okay? Blake, I’m not fine at all, I’m tired and I just need a break! Why don’t you just leave before someone takes a picture of us and posts it so the world starts accusing me of being a homewrecker, a slut, a shameless girl why? All because I liked you and you have a girlfriend? Like I was gonna chase after you or like I said, Blake broke up with Regina because I am interested in you… you know I-
She was suddenly cut short when Blake grabbed the back of her neck and pulled her closer then slammed his lips on hers.
Her eyes widened, she couldn’t move or blink even when she felt his lips moving on hers but she suddenly pulled away and slapped him across the face.
Blake chuckled and turned his face to the other side.
“Slap me here and I might come back to my senses. I mean, how did it happen so fast, I only came to shoot a movie but I couldn’t get you off my head. I even dumped my girlfriend because I couldn’t stop thinking about you. Each time I wake up, I see your smile, your pretty smile is the only thing I can think of all day without getting damn tired, how did it happen I don’t understand, what did you do to me?” He asked with teary eyes.
Ivy was also crying.
“What did you do to me, Ivy?” Blake took her hands again.
“I’m scared, why are they not attacking you? Why is it only me?” She cried.
“Because social media is dumb! Society loves it when two women beef with each other, don’t give a fûck about what they say, that’s why they don’t come to men because we don’t give a fûck” he told her.
Ivy was still crying.
“Come here” Blake pulled her for a hug and kissed her forehead.
“Social media can’t make us happy, if I were living up to them then I wouldn’t be bold enough to tell Regina that I don’t love her anymore, I wouldn’t be bold to tell you that I want to start something serious with you and wipe off all these tears from your eyes so I can see that smile again” he whispered to her.
Ivy slowly looked up at him.
“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have avoided you earlier,” she muttered.
“It’s okay I understand you, let’s first focus on fixing this online mess and taking care of your mental health before talking about us,” he said softly.
Ivy nodded and wrapped her arms tightly around his waist while he gently rubbed her back.
