{Getting Winifred Red-handed}
Nova POV
“I will walk on my own. ” I managed to say and pull Isabella’s hand from mine. The lady wasn’t expecting me to remove her hand from mine. Her expression was out of this world.
“Did I make you uncomfortable? ” Isabella asked and I looked at Landon. I sighed deeply and looked at her.
“You didn’t. I just don’t like the way you pull me from my boyfriend. ” I replied honestly. Everyone looked at each other and there was a total silence.
“Did my words make them quiet? Or it’s something else. ” I thought and looked around. I look at Landon, and it looks as if he’s trying to hold his laughter but what I don’t understand is why are they staring.
“Woah! She’s different from her sister. ” Asher uttered and stepped forward.
“Hi Nova, my name is Asher. He paused and cleared his throat. Landon has been telling us he has a girlfriend months ago and we, his friends, didn’t believe him. So we scheduled a day to meet his girlfriend officially. The girl that was able to capture the playboy back in school—”
“He told you he has a girlfriend. ” I asked and he nodded.
“We are actually happy for him. It’s something we didn’t expect to see so soon. But I’m glad he fell in love with you. ” Asher ended his words by giving me a warm hug. The rest cheered and came to hug me one after the other.
“Don’t I deserve to hug too. ” A voice said behind us and we turned to look at the entrance.
“Winifred. ” His friends exclaimed, including their girlfriends. I guess they know each other.
“Wait, isn’t she the lady at Don’s party with Camila and Crystal. ” I thought and looked at her.
“What are you doing here, Winifred? ” Perry asked with a serious tone.
“Seriously, I mean no arm guys–
“Guys… What the hell are you doing here bitch? Isabella yelled at her as she got closer to her. In a swift few minutes, she pulls her hair and yanks it over and over.
“I’m serious Isabella. I need to calm down, I just want to settle our differences. I have someone I’m dating. ” She confessed and I looked at her. Landon wrapped his hand around my waist and I looked at him.
“Why aren’t you saying anything? ” I mumbled and my words came out in a whisper.
“My friends will handle her. I just don’t trust her. ” He replied and looked at how Isabella hadn’t let go of her hair.
“I will handle her myself. ” I uttered and they stopped at once.
“What do you mean? ” Landon asked in a whisper after pulling me back.
“Isn’t that the girl obsessed with you… I will handle her nicely. ” I muttered as walk to face Winifred. Asher, Axel and Perry stood with their girlfriends while Landon was just staring.
“After pulling the rope of hatred in my heart towards you, What else do you want to pull this time around? ” I asked and crossed my arms on my chest.
“A rope of friendship and letting go of the past. ” She replied and laughed. A mockery laughter to be precise.
“Friendship? I scoffed and move closer to her ear. ”
“How serious do you want to play, fair enough… ” I asked and she looked shocked for minutes. No words, I guess she wasn’t expecting my statement ” fair enough”
“So are you here to make friends or pull a fair enough. ” I asked again and she went on her knees. Everyone gasped and I looked at me with kin interest.
“You shouldn’t be on your knees, Winifred. ” I said and walked away from her. I sat at the bar revolving chair. She burst into tears and crawled to my side. Everyone wasn’t expecting the show she’s showing off.
“What’s going on? ” Isabella asked as she walked to sit beside me.
“Do you think coming to Don’s business party to ruin my mood will make any difference. ” I uttered and she looked terrible. Her face and her make-up are still intact.
“Your words that day. I’M COMING BACK FOR YOU. Do you mean them? ” I asked and she nodded.
“I thought, if I threaten you, you might leave Landon alone. ” She uttered and his friends hissed, sounding pissed.
“Did you really threaten my girlfriend before I arrived that day? ” Landon asked with a furious expression.
“I’m sorry—”
“Get out of here Winifred!! Landon yelled and looked at the miserable lady on her knees. Begging me to delete the video that came to my phone.
“Get out of here—.”
“She won’t get out, Don. ” I uttered with a smirk on my lips.
“What do you mean? ” Everyone asked in unison.
“A video of Winifred in a dirty crime came to my phone days after she meet me at my boyfriend’s business party—
“Dirty Crime?! ” They exclaimed and Angel looked at Winifred with a disgusting face.
“If you don’t mind Nova, what type of dirty crime? Isabella asked curiously, same with everyone.
“After the night Winifred showed me her true colors. I told Cali and my elder sister about Winifred. I paused and looked at Winifred, still on her knees with her hands cap together and I continued. Zoey wasn’t surprised with her words but Cali was furious. So Camila suggested we let her be on watch 24/7. So from there, the video of Winifred killing her personal maid got recorded by the secret agent we sent. Actually, that wasn’t part of what we sent him to do but he thought that would be enough evidence for the police. So we made several copies, one with the police and all other criminal stations. ” I explained and I gave her my phone.
“You can delete the video. ” I uttered and she wailed loudly.
“Wow, woah! Gosh! She’s so cool. ” Axel and rest gasped and I looked at Landon.
His reaction got me. Why is he staring like that?
“So you are this bad. ” He uttered and we both looked at Winifred on the floor. The door burst open and the police officers came in.
“You are under arrest, Winifred Freeman.”
