Prologue's song "Stone Cold" ~ Demi Lovato

Belle's POV

"You know you have to attend this annual event to take over the company or else-" "Or else what? You have no heir other than me, so you're giving it to who exactly?"

I heard a gasp on the other end of the phone and smirked hearing them speechless. "So, you threatening me wasn't enough?" "Darling, Gabriel-" "Belle, my name's Belle!" She listened for a moment and let the other line continue with what they were saying "Love, you have to come with Jer-" .

I hanged up and cut the call fuming at them trying to control me when I'm even away from them. I threw my phone across the basketball court where I was hidden.

Then I heard an Asian accent from behind me "Ms. Gold?" I took a deep breath and turned around to find my parents' most trusted secretary Shin Jinyoung "Oh I thought it was someone else, I didn't recognise you" I rolled my eyes "Ah secretary Shin, what can I do for you?"

Raising my perfect shaped brow, standing straighter. "Ah yes, Ms. Gol-" I raised my hand signalling him to stop "Yes?" "You out of all people should know I do not like to be called as a Miss right secretary Shin?" He nods his head which reminded me of a bubble head  figure that I had on one of my shelfs. Mentally laughing.

"Ah yes, Gabrie- I mean Belle." I nod signalling for him to go on "Your parents knew you would not budge by phone so they sent me." I roll my eyes and look at the bag beside him nodding to it.

"Ahh, yes. This is what your parents prepare for you to wear tomorrow evening" I nod and he hands me the bag. Smiling "Kamsa hamnida, you may go".

He smiles and slips inside a new model Lexus.

Shaking my head "Oh look here" I closed my eyes and face the eavesdropper who turned out the be the oh so famous Lucas Davis Armstrong.

"What do you doing here Armstrong?" I glared at him. "Oh we're on last name basis now Smith?" He raised a perfect shaped eye brow that lead me to wonder if he gets them done or are they naturally like that.

"Ahem," I inhaled as much air as I could and look at him seeing him smirk "Done checking me out Smith?" I just shook my head trying to walk pass him but then again, being the asshole that he is. He blocked my way.

"What the hell do you want Armstrong ?"
He smirks "Well, you can start by telling me why you're secretly dating an old man? I didn't know you liked them older." I rolled my eyes "There's nothing that you need to know. Back off!"

I walked passed him bumping his shoulders when what something he said made me stop. "What was that?" I turned as fast as I could and glared at him while seeing him smirk. 
He shook his head and turned around walking away.
This is going to be a long day! I sighed and heard the bell ring and head inside the school.
Maybe I should skip? Nah. Shaking my head I head towards my third period praying to god to make this day go easier. Hoping we'll never cross paths ever again.

Little did I know fate had something else up its sleeve .
