Chapter 21 - Flowers

The car stop at the mall. Abigail got out the walked straight in a store. She remembered that she a hair clip in one of the store that will match her perfectly auburn hair color but was so stressed out they she left it. And now she thought about buying it. Christabel followed right behind her.

"I remember I saw a hair clip here the last time I visited, I wanted to get it let go"Abigail pulled her hand to the store.

The shop attendant had a smile on and walked over. "Hello Miss, can I help you?

"Thanks, I wanted a black hair clip. It had crystal on it"

"Yes mama this way" The shop attendant made them wait on a couch while. She finally a tiny box in her hand,she open the box the shown the clip to Abigail and Christabel. Abigail's eyes lit up. They were walking out when she saw a huge teadybear.

"I will take it" Abigail paid for it then they both left the shop. Mathew was still outside the car waiting for them.

***************

It almost an hour since they got home. Abigail walked up to her room. She felt bored since Natty wasn't home from work. She was still drifting in thought when she heard a knock on the door.

"It not locked" she said turning her head to the direction of the doorway. It was Christabel.

"Hey" Christabel wave her hands at her.

"What's up" Abigail said with a smile.

" I was feeling bored so I thought you want to walk around the house. We can go to the garden" Christabel told her. Abigail's eyes lit up.

"There is a garden here? She was surprised. It more than a month that be he has been stay here and still didn't know the was a garden here.

"Come on I want to see the garden" She was too excited that she couldn't wait.

Christabel lead the way to the garden. It was at the opposite of the mansion,you cloud see the hills from there and it was like there were house the more like a town.

You could see buildings there if you stared closer. Abigail kept trying to figure out what was there but couldn't so she decided to ask about it.

"Hey do people stay around here?" Abigail pointed at the hills.

"Yeah,there a lot of people staying there. They work for boss and they stay there with they families hard to believe but some were even raised up there. Maybe later Sir allows we can visit there. Come let me show you were the flowers are been grew.

"Wait it belongs to Natty? Abigail asked alittle confused.

"Trust me Abigail your husband is richer than you think"

"Okay, let go I want to see the flowers. Tell me which type of flowers are there"

Christabel dragged her hand to the opposite direction of the garden.

It was surrounded with a wooden fence with crawling flowers on it.

" Can I enter? Abigail asked looking at Christabel with a puppy dog eyes, twining her hands together.

"It yours so you can do what ever you want with it"

She maybe getting married to Natty but still has to asked for permission before touch or going to some place in there mansion because she doesn't know how thing worked here before she came and didn't want to cause any trouble.

Abigail gasped from the beauty of the place and was starting to think this is her favorite place apart from the library. She could really use the beauty of the flowers as an aspiration for her nail design. Even though some people thought making nails is just about looking out designs on the internet and working it out. She has always had interest in it and always thought of it as a hobby and not just a work. Her father always found it to be useless and there was no future in it, she had always plan on making it successful. Like open her own nail company and producing nails products and tools.

She walked at every flower that looked beautiful and couldn't help at the smells of it.

"Wow,the is marigold,dahlia and tulips blue heaven. Does Natty like flowers?

"No it actually for his sister, Rita. She has travelled for awhile but am sure you will meet her soon".

"Come on let get inside it getting late" Christabel said pointing at the sky which were starting to darken little by little.

"By the way it almost dinner and Natty is still not home yet. Maybe I should call him"

The phone rang for sometime but no one was responding so Abigail stop then got in Christabel.

"Am not hungry, I will wait for Natty to come home" Abigail walked to her room then lied on her bed to finish some school work but I going to an hour and Natty was still not home. It almost eight which was really disturbing her. She was starting to get extremely worried.

She decided on call him again maybe he will pick this time.

(Dispite group: Starline LTD)

"Joel schedule the meeting to now" Natty said not even having a glance to Joel but rather focus on his MacBook. Joel happened a shocked expression on his face. It almost eight and all the works have left except a few and he want to to have a meeting this time of the day.

"But sir….." he stop talking the moment Natty raised his head and gave him a deadly glare. "Yes sir" he nodded in acceptance and left the office.

He came back a few minutes later to say that they are ready. Even though the meeting was to going on tomorrow they heads of every department couldn't question why the suddenly change of plans and since it was Natty himself that was going to be present to wasn't a waste of time.

(Blue top valley: Abigail's room)

The rang a few times but still no answer. She decided on trying one last time before get more worried. Luckily this time had been picked but I wasn't Natty's voice but rather a female's voice.

"Hello" the person from the other side said making Abigail beat rapidly. For some reason she didn't like it.
