The Billionaire’s Pretty Thief

Crystal was still attentive though Blaze could notice the substance that had formed in her eyes, making her feel uncomfortable with the situation that she was faced with. Having no choice, she had to answer every question that she was been asked by the attorney as every detail counts in her pursuit for justice.

Clearing his throat and arranging himself on the chair, Freddy asked Crystal to list out the things that she did for her uncle since she had mentioned something like that earlier. But not being able to comprehend his question, she asked him to repeat it one more time which the Attorney saw no problems with.

“Can you explain to me what your interaction with the men that your uncle always sent you to them was?”.

She felt a cold sweat running through her back as it made its way into her pants. Her lips had suddenly become glued together, making answering questions difficult. She was conscious that everything she was doing was wrong but being faced with such a situation, she could feel the gravity of all her actions. Breathing in and out, Blaze still whispered into her ears telling her that she did not have to answer the question if she did not feel ready for it but Crystal had already made up her mind though it was a difficult path for her.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Her legs had become all sweaty in her shows while her hands could not sit on one spot, mustering the courage to finally answer his question, she said,

” My aim for meeting up with all the men like I used to do was to steal from them.”

A tear dropped down from her eyes after she had said that and with her head lowered slowly, she felt embarrassed to the core that the only thing that she had wished for was for the ground to get open to swallow her up.

Rubbing her shoulder, Blaze made sure that she did not feel alone as he was always going to be there for him but another question from the lawyer drove her into deep thought as she wondered how she had found herself in such a difficult situation.

“Now, can you explain to me how you always succeeded in successfully stealing from them?” Freddy asked but Crystal’s world was smelly crumbling and all she wanted was for her heart to be lighter after her session with the lawyer.

To her, she felt more like she was going through some sort of confession to a priest or something and an act of courage from nowhere filled her body and she began to narrate everything that he was still keeping under her sleeve.

Taking her head up, Crystal told Freddy that she had always been attracted to men, and whenever she walked into a compartment, every man that was there wanted to have her for himself. Noticing that it was the case, her uncle had come up with a suggestion as being the only way for her to be able to ultimately take over her father’s company.

Feeling excited about it, she asked what it was as she could do everything to get her inheritance but Uncle Max had told her that the company was in-depth so he could not hand over something that was on the verge of crumbling to his precious niece. She felt heartbroken after listening to him say that and all she wanted to do was to save the only thing that meant a lot to her parents so she asked what she could do to remedy the situation and the smile that could be seen on her uncle’s face was not a simple one.

Crystal thought back to all these as she wept bitterly while describing everything that had happened and with so many regrets, she said how her uncle would hire private agents to follow the rich men in the society to know the places where they go to, what they do, the restaurants that they eat in and many other things that could be of great importance to his scheme and that was how she was always in the right place at the right time.

Blaze listened to her narrate everything and he felt sorry for her and turned his gaze to look at his friend, they both understood how naive she was to the point that she could not even read through her uncle’s treachery. Crystal had narrated how scared she was most of the time but all she ever wanted was to save her father’s company which has now become hers.

Her uncle had assured her that it was only going to be a one-time something as he knew exactly how much she had to steal from those men she was assigned to meet in the different places where she met them.

“So you mean to say that your uncle had accomplices inside the locality?” Freddy asked and Crystal nodded her hand, letting him know that he was right. She went further to explain that it was one of the reasons why she had never been caught up after carrying out her actions.

There was always someone or people who drafted the plan for my uncle telling him how I was to meet my victim and when I was to strike and how I was to achieve my goal and eventually leave the place without anyone spotting or apprehending me.

“Then you have to recall the names or faces of anyone as that is going to be your key to start defending yourself from your uncle because trust me on this, it is going to be your words against he’s Ms. Taylor,” Freddy prepared her mind already for what was in front but Crystal not minding what was going to happen after her uncle must have been in a cell paying for all the things that he had done to her, she said,

“Though I am aware that I will be sentenced to jail for all the attempted murders and theft that had carried out, I will still be grateful for that lath because it made me meet someone who did not give up on my flaws though he was one of me and my uncles victims.”

Blaze knew that she was referring to him and letting out a smile, he murmured,

“I am grateful too because I got to know a pretty thief who stole my heart and had made me her captive.”

Freddy adored the two love birds that were in his office but he had to call Blaze’s attention to the fact that, the situation that his woman was in was a delicate one as she had no solid proof nor witnesses, to stand by her assertions but there was going to be away.
