Zelda Stevens ~

The dipshit was now driving Zelda back to her office where she would have to talk to Jade, "I hope you know that you're owing me?" He says and Zelda scoffed "Owing you my foot." She says as he drove into her office compound. She got down from the car and he got down too "You know you can at least say thank you." He says and she chuckled "Thank you very much for kidnapping me and bringing me back here." She says and he rolled his eyes "You're so so Rude." He says and she laughed "Goodbye Mr Kidnapper." She says and walked into the building where she greeted the receptionist Her phone starts to ring and she picked it seeing it was her mother calling again "What is wrong mother ?" She asked and heard some shuffling over the phone "What is wrong? What is wrong? Our family name is being dragged to filth just because of your stupid self. How can you sleep with an almost married man? You father has asked you to see him Zelda and I will not her anything else. Come home and see him." She says in an authoritatively tone and cut the call not waiting for Zelda to talk. Zelda sighed and tucked the phone away in her pocket as she took the elevator upstairs to her floor. She got out of the elevator and walked straight to Jade's office. She barged in but stopped on seeing a lady and Jade sitting ans talking, The atmosphere felt a little odd as both of their eyes landed on her "Jade, Sorry I didn't know you have company." She says and attempts to leave but the lady spoke up "So you are the one?" She says and stood up "Sorry?" Zelda questioned as the woman walked closer to her. "You are Zelda Stevens? The one who slept with Liam Edward's , Right?" She asked with an off tone and Zelda glanced at Jade who shrugged

"I didn't sleep with Liam Edward's but Yes I am the Zelda, Who are you?" She asked and the woman stretched her hand forward "I'm Samantha, Samantha Millers. Liam's Fiancee." She says and Zelda's eyes widen slightly

"Oh the Samantha, Look I didn't sleep with Liam, It is all a huge misunderstanding." She says and the woman nodded "Yes, I can tell. Liam doesn't deal with your kind and coming here I thought I would see exactly what had drawn him to you but getting here. I believe it's all a huge misunderstanding." She says and Zelda raised her eyebrows, She looked at the tall blonde woman and smirked, Like Liam like Samantha

"If you Soon to be husband didn't walk into my room that fateful day drunk then trust me even this stupid misunderstanding wouldn't be happening and it wouldn't bring some random lady I don't know to my office talking absolute gibberish. If you have any questions then ask your fiancee. Do Not seek me out like this." She says sternly and Samantha scoffed "I? Did you just call me a random lady?" She asked and Zelda looked at her accessing her "I'm sorry, Did I stutter?" She says and Samantha smirked "It's fine, I will take my leave now." She says and walked back to the desk. Picking her bag and shades and walked out of the office.

"Such Arrogance." Jade commented and Zelda sighed as she shut the door behind her

"She's just a jealous girlfriend, Let her be. What do you have for me today?" She asked but her phone started to ring again. She glanced over and saw that it was her mom calling her.

She put the phone away and Jade raised her eyebrows "Don't worry about it, what do you have for me today?" She asked

"Well for starters you aren't granting any interviews to any blog or the press. And-" She stopped again as Zelda's phone starts to ring "Just answer it Zee." Jade says and Zelda sighs as she swiped to pick the phone

"Mother!" She says bluntly "Come home right now Zelda Stevens!" Her mother yelled over the phone and Zelda squinted her eyes. She cut the call and looked at Jade who smiled and nodded "It's fine Zee, Be back soon." She says and Zelda smiled as she stood up to leave.

She took the elevator downstairs and got out of the building. The company's driver was around so she asked him to take her to the Stevens mansion. She made a mental note to tell Liam about his fiancée.

Soon enough they arrived at the mansion, Zelda looked up at the huge board that read 'The Steven's Residence' They drove in and parked the car. She sighed as she got out of the car.

Memories of her leaving the house rushed back to her and she shut her eyes closed. She walked up the stairs to the house and opened the giant door slowly.

Getting inside she saw her father pacing around angrily with a newspaper in his hand, he was on a call and she could tell he wasn't the least pleased about what the person on the other line was saying.

He paused in his steps as soon as their eyes met and Zelda felt her stomach dropped.

She wasn't ready for this meeting with him at all.
