It was late evening when Camilla woke up to a hungry body, when she left her parent's home all her mind wanted was to run away. So she had called the restaurant to tell them she wasn't going to report back and drove straight home.

She turned around to see Chris sleeping next to her. Her memory was fogging on how he had carried her to bed cause all she remembered was what held him so right when he came home.

She sighed and slowly got up from bed. Turning on the kitchen lights she started getting ready to make something to eat. She was busy cutting the onions when Chris walked in.

His eyes were still drowsy as he took a seat at the kitchen counter.

"Need help?" his deep voice lazily asked.

She smiled and shook her head then went back to cooking. Chris didn't bother her and just sat back watching her every move.

After a while, she put two plates on the counter and served the spaghetti with meatballs then sprinkled a little cheese on each.

Since she was a chief she always cooked and a smile was plastered on her face the whole time.

"Let's eat " she turned to Chris who was smiling and holding his phone towards her but stopped when she looked up.

"What are you doing?" Camilla frowned taking her seat next to him.

"Posting something," he said

"What?"

"You " he smiled even more.

She laughed, "But you don't have any social media account?" thinking he was lying.

"I made my assistant get me one," he said showing her his phone. Her eyes nearly went blind with all the photos he had of her. She pulled the phone away and scrolled through it.

"Where did you get all these pictures?" He had different pictures of Camilla in different places and times. Some she knew and some she didn't.

He moved closer resting his head on her shoulder as he watched her scroll through his phone.

She moved to his post, he had only two. One was earlier and it had a picture of them kissing in the restaurant and the next one was just now and it was a video of her busy cooking.

"My Angel" he had captioned She giggled at his silly emojis next to it. She kissed his cheek and returned his phone.

"Let's eat " She passed him his fork.

"Your fine with it?" he took his phone.

She nodded, "I can't hide from it, everyone knows already so I guess we should just enjoy ourselves "

Her mother's words had scared her, and after thinking about it the only person. she might have meant Chris's mother since she seemed to hate her. Chris had promised that his mother had decided to let them be but then why was her mother saying all that.

"Love, has your mother said anything since her last visit?" she asked.

"No " he answered with his mouth full of food. He seemed to be enjoying the meal.

She fell silent again and began eating. Chris took away the plates after they were done and Camilla went to the bedroom to take a shower. After he was done in the kitchen he sat down to complete reviewing some documents on his laptop.

Ray left the club late in the night with his friends. They said goodbye and each left for their places. His driver helped him in the car and started driving.

His phone rang waking him up from his sleep, he picked it up and answered.

"I told you not to call me again " he murmured angrily.

"But our deal hasn't ended yet and the fact that you failed at keeping it breaks my heart," a woman's voice said.

"All I said was I was going to try my best and we never had any deal "

"Hmmm well, I guess it was my fault then for trusting your words. But anyway I have good news about Camilla " she seemed to smile.

"Can't you just leave her alone, she doesn't even know you exist so why don't you just let them be " Ray rubbed his eyes.

"You and I know I can't do that, Chris is my life and I would do anything to have him "

"But Camilla is his life and I don't see how you can stop that. Everyone now wishes them well so do you think anyone would want to see them separate "

"I have a solution to that, but all I want is for you to help me get Camilla away from him just for one day "

Ray turned to the window and gazed outside " We both know I can't do that, I still want my friend to be happy "

"Then I suggest you listen to me, 'cause if you don't then you won't have a friend to see being happy anymore "

He could feel the coldness of her voice seep into his body. He shivered, " You can't threaten me with that anymore, if anything happens to Camilla then Chris will get to know who was behind the accident that day "

A sneering laugh was heard from the other side, "Well it seems I hit a nerve but I a sure we will agree on something after we are done with this conversation "

Ray hated himself for having kept the truth from his friend and covering up for this crazy bitch. She had appeared out of nowhere and started haunting his friend cause Chris liked her. He had helped Camilla behind her back to fight her evil schemes but she finally won and his friend ended up in the hospital where she disappeared. But now she was back with even more stupid and crazy ideas on how to get Chris, who on the other hand was still crazy in love with Camilla.

He said a silent prayer and listened to the lunatic on the phone
