Chapter 8 - Chapter 8

Zelda Stevens~

Zelda woke up the next morning by the sound of her phone ringing, She grunted and placed the phone against her ear "Zee, There is a huge problem. Zee? Zee? Zelda fucking stevens!"

That seemed to jolt Zelda out of the sleepiness daze she was in "Why, good God? Why would you yell at me first thing in the morning?" Zelda yelled back and massaged her temples "Check Brenda's morning show and see why i am yelling!" Jade yelled back and Zelda rolled her eyes, She reached for her tablet and joined the morning show Her eyes widen on seeing the topic of discussion "Is there a brewing relationship between the beautiful model Zelda Stevens and Business mogul Liam Edward's?" It read

"What the fuck of the fucking hell is this!!?" Zelda yelled and cut the call with Jade. She logged into her instagram account and gasped, Her followers had increased by a thousand more and her messages were full of questions as to if she was dating Liam, Some people even called her a thief for ruining in the relationship between Liam and his fiancee.

How did she ruin in their relationship and how did they all come to the conclusion that she was in a relationship with Liam? What the hell was going on?

She scrolled through her feeds where she finally saw it, A video of Liam going out of her room and also a video of her leaving the same room. "Oh shit!" She muttered and picked up her phone again where she dialed Jade's number again . "What in the world is going on Jade? " She asked "Are you asking me? I wasn't the one that slept with Liam Edward's and is now on every blog and paper." Jade retorted and Zelda sighed "I didn't sleep with him Jade, I-" she paused when she heard the phone vibrate. "I would have to call you back Jade, I'm getting a call from my mom and oh boy." She cut the call and picked her mom's call.

"Zelda stevens! Why are you so determined to bring shame to our family? Have you seen the papers, Your name is being dragged to dirt you silly girl." Her mom cried out and Zelda rolled her yes 'Typical mom' She would always make a mountain out of a molehill. "It isn't as bad as you are going on about mom, It is all a misunderstanding and it will all be cleared up soon." She says

"A misunderstanding! A. misunderstanding you say? You father has summoned your presence " Her mother says and Zelda struggled to hold her laughter even with all that was happening. " Mom, This is 2021 and no one says 'Your father has summoned your presence!" She says "If Dad wants me to see him then he should call me himself, If not you he won't be seeing me in his presence." She says "Enjoy your newly found fame mom." She says and cut the call. Now unto pressing matters, How did the video get on social media!? What was this rubbish Liam had decided to put her in? Only if he went directly to his room that night then all of these things won't be happening. Zelda sighed and got out of bed, She picked her phone and dialed Jade's number again but it was busy, She tried a couple of times till it finally went through "Finally, I have been trying to call you for a while now." Zelda says "Well, You wouldn't have been able too. I have been getting calls upon calls from several reporters and business people too." She says and Zelda sighed "This is a huge misunderstanding!" She says tiredly and heard Jade snort "Misunderstanding or not, It is a huge publicity for you. And it is working well in your favor." She says and Zelda sighs "I will be at the office then we can talk uh." She says and hung up the call. Not quite long, She gets a call from Anna "You're trending bitch, Have you seen the news today? Seems like Liam Edward's is a good-luck charm to you " She says and Zelda stuck her tongue out. "Good luck charm my foot. He is ruining in my life. I'm being called names here." She says "It happens Zee, I have to go now but I'll call later , Bye. Love you." She yelled and cut the call Zelda sighed and dropped her phone on the bed and stepped into the bathroom to have her bath, Once she was done she towel dried her body and brought out her bag to get a clothe. She decided on a white short blazer dress and black knee boots, She brushed her hair and used her cologne after which she applied a light make up on her face. She looked at herself in the mirror and smiled in satisfaction, She picked her phone and bag and walked out of her room. Taking the elevator downstairs. she gave the receptionist her key and went out but she was swarmed by reporters who wanted to know if she was in a relationship with Liam Edward's. "What is the relationship between you and Liam? Is Samantha out of the picture? Has Liam dissolved the engagement between him and Samantha? Please say something?" Zelda struggled to stand as they all swarmed her with their questions. All of a sudden someone grabbed her wrist pulled her away into a car and shut the door.

The person hopped into the driver seat even though the reporters had swarmed the car now. The person starts to drive away and Zelda sighed, She suddenly regained herself and remembered she didn't know the person who whisked her away. "Wait, Who are you and where are you taking me to?" She asked and waited for a reply from the person who didn't seem like he was going to answer her, Zelda opened her mouth to talk but the words that came out of the man's mouth shocked her "You are being kidnapped!"
