Waiting for the board of directors to make there decision concerning certain matters was like piercing needles through her skin, she was so tired and she had not being their for more than three minutes but she had to put up a front.

Finally they were done, she quickly left for her office, she needed to make some changes to the space, she thought to herself, Adaora wanted to be taken seriously by her mother so she could unfreeze all her accounts and club memberships then she could go back to her normal life. Adaora's mother owned a chain of luxury hotels and resorts all over the world worth trillions of dollars they were really wealthy.

Suddenly there was a slight knock on the office door it was her personal secretary Louisa "goodmorning ma we need your signature on these recent projects" she had just arrived her office and she was already signing documents, Adaora replied "i would take a good look at all of them before i sign" Louisa replied "okay ma" she had no choice but to leave the documents on Adaora's desk.

Isabella decided to put what had happened to her aside and head to class, she thought out loud to herself "i am going to focus on my studies and forget about these rich boys" with that she went into the bathroom to have her bath, an hour later she was ready for lectures, she looked at her worn out sandals which was no good anymore and decided to wear Aisha's shoes, after she was done, she opened the door, came out, locked it and headed out to her first class.

On her way to her class which was on the main campus, she was still in thoughts as she held her course books in her hands while she walked slowly, she did not realize she was walking on the road, she almost got knocked down by a very nice car, the car stopped and Chidi got out, he quickly went towards her, held her by the shoulder and said "are you okay" Isabella looked at the handsome chidi and said "yes i am fine" she did not recognise him.

To everyones surprise Adaora intervened "leave her i would pay for her hair, come sit" the hairstylist left and went to attend to another customer, Adaora was not particularly nice to people she did not know but what changed, Adaora proceeded to ask the woman her name "my name is Joanne" Adaora giggled a bit then thought to herself this woman Joanne could be part of her revenge plot.

A hairstylist immediately came to work on Joanne's hair, when she was done Joanne looked like a totally different person, Adaora looking good as always fluffed her hair a bit, looked at Joanne and gave her a compliment "you look way better" Adaora payed for Joanne's hair in cash, exchanged numbers with her and left.

Chapter 9 : A Changed Person

Adaora woke up the next morning feeling grumpy, the bed in the pool house was not as comfortable as the one her bedroom, she thought to herself could her day get any worse.

Adaora decided that nothing was going to upset her, she was going to prove to her mother that she could handle things but still carry out her revenge, she got out of bed went to the main house to take a shower.

The maids at the house greeted her "goodmorning ma" to their utmost surprise she replied "morning" and walked past them, they all smiled sheepishly, they thought to themselves madam's plan worked.

When Adaora entered her beautiful clean bedroom, she took of her clothes from yesterday, and hopped into the shower, while she was in the shower she thought of all the events of yesterday, who was out to get her she thought to herself.

She also had a hair appointment at the salon that morning, she would head to that, then head to her mother's office building for a meeting with the board of directors, Adaora actually had a degree in hospitality management, she could put that to good use, she wanted to prove to her mother that she was a changed person.

Her driver came around with the car and they drove to the first destination the salon, when she got to the salon she stepped out of the car and into the salon, the salon was so luxurious.

Chapter 6 : Elsa Is Here

Sergio arrived the school's garden, Isabella opened the car door and stepped out, she closed the door and Sergio drove away without even saying a word to her, it was so dark Isabella was a bit frightened so she decided to walk quickly to Aisha's place.

When she arrived Aisha's place she knocked on the door Aisha woke up she looked at the time it was some few minutes after twelve Aisha said "who is that knocking" Isabella replied "its me Isabella" Aisha immediately went to open the door, Isabella walked in, Aisha was surprised to see Isabella in damp clothes so she asked "why is my red dress damp Isabella what happened" Isabella did not answer her instead she proceeded to the room.

Aisha followed her and said "talk this girl what happened" a shivering Isabella took of the damp dress and her worn out sandals then she put on her night wear and she gently lay on the bed, Aisha said "are you okay Isabella" she still did not answer, Aisha decided not to bother her any further.

Chidi came out to the balcony of his condo with a glass of juice in his hand, he thought about the ordeal that happened at his pool party, what if that girl had drowned, suddenly there was a ding at the door, he went to open the door to his surprise he saw Elsa standing right in front of him.

Chapter 8 : No More Friends

It was a harsh male voice probably Belinda's boyfriend Mark, Mark was not a nice person he was very rude and mean to people he did not care about he spoke "yes what do you want Belinda is busy right now" Adaora could hear a light giggle in the background saying "Mark stop just tell her am not here".

Adaora was so angry she hung up the phone, even her best friend so she thought was no longer her friend, every one had deserted her especially now when she needed them, she decided to go home, what a day she was having.

When she got home, her driver opened the door as usual, her driver said "goodnight ma" Adaora did not reply, it was past 12pm, she tried to open the door but it was locked, she knocked a few times no one answered, she rung the telecom a few times still no answer. 

she then called her mother, her mother answered "yes" Adaora spoke back "the door is locked can someone come" before she could complete her sentence her mother said "kindly go back to were you are coming from" Adaora could not believe this, her mother actually meant every word she said earlier.

Adaora decided to spend the night in the pool house she proceeded to the pool house, she was not glad at all, she felt like she was being treated like an outcast, she thought to herself, maybe if she slept and woke up the next morning all this would have being a horrible nightmare.
