"Sugar." She called the moment she picked up his call, her voice eager and wanting making her hubby chuckle. Anna had forgotten all about the event of today just by thinking about him.
Even if they are apart, she still finds herself being drawn to him daily. She has grown so fond of Noah and it feels like she's known him all her life.
"My sweet girl." Hearing Noah's voice again made her blush, especially with the way Lola was staring at her. Anna quickly jumped out of bed and rushed to their balcony as she spoke to him. She was too embarrassed to speak to him before someone else.
Lola shook her head as she saw her run away.
"I saw your performance." Thinking about it now, she felt so ashamed she hadn't won. She had promised Noah she would get the crown, but not with her poor performances.
"You must be disappointed I didn't win."
"You did absolutely great even if those biased people decided to give your crown to someone else." He said.
"You're saying this because I'm your wife." Her voice was low.
"Of course I am. Even if married the best woman in the world, I know talent when I see one. Why didn't you tell me you were a good painist?" Noah asked. He had been quite shocked when he saw her play. Playing pianos was his thing, he has practiced that since a child.
For every wealthy family, it is a must to acquire a skill. While Beth had a wonderful voice, he played the piano and he was so good at it too. He could already picture them playing together and he smiled.
"I miss you. I know you miss me too." Anna blushed further. While she left Noah at the airport, she had told him she loved him. But did she really love him.
What she felt for him, the racing heart, was it love or lust?
Anna bit her lips unable to say a thing to him. She had missed him, but something in her wanted to tease Noah a little tonight. She was dying to see his reaction right now, waiting for her to say those three words.
"I don't know..." She started, her voice low and seductive.
"Anna, come." Lola called from behind and she hung up before Noah could say anything. He only smiled as he stared at his phone. This woman is playing such dangerous games with him and she would not like her punishment when he finds her.
"What is it?" Anna asked as she stepped back into the room.
"What did you do?" Lola showed her her phone which kept buzzing with messages. It is the information Anna has released about Nari, it was blowing up like wildfire as everyone was eating it up. The fans that remembered everything started cussing Nari out and the new fans disliked her and called her all sort of evil names.
Nari had gone from the most loved to the most hated in less than 30 mins. No one knew Anna had been the one to leak the video again as they blamed her fans for being so bitter. Anna felt pleased at what was going on on the internet. She would sleep happily tonight, while others death.
She hadn't meant for things to come down to this, but for days now, Nari has made the world drag her to filth. She had made them mock her, she had humiliated her, it was her turn to play the game she knew how to play best.
"It's nothing." Anna said to Lola as she settled on her bed. Lola stared at her in disbelief, she couldn't believe what she was seeing. Anna is no longer the naive good girl she used to know, she had turned into a scheming woman, living up to the name they always called her. 'The malicious Devil'.
"How did you come up with this idea, I almost forgot about what that bitch did?" Lola sat on her own bed as she stared at her.
She knew who Anna Sui truly was, and she knows it's a privilege knowing such person. The president of the biggest entertainment company right now in Summerlane and number 2 in the world. Eclipse wasn't yet 6months old, but it has achieved so many things other entertainment company hasn't achieved.
All she wanted was to appear in this competition and win fair, but Nari kept poking her in ways she could no longer ignore. She knew how to deal with the bitch, especially since she had more than enough evidence against her.
Nari was hungover and didn't know what was happening. She was too busy with her party while her phone buzzed. The companies she had managed to gather to herself were all leaving one after another, cutting whatever deal they had with her.

In a slightly dark room, held man of power. The room was pitch black and the only light in there illuminated from the lantern at a corner.
After his call with his wife, Noah returned to his office and started signing the documents he had to sign. There were piles of paper work that he had to sign.
The normal him would have been done with this by now, but the married him had to push most paper work aside because he had a new priority. His wife.
A small knock was heard on his door, "come." Noah said to see Lurch step in with a tray of the tea he asked. Beside him was Paul. The man had a frown on his face as he stared at the man under the light.
They are in the 21th century for a reason. It meant less visiting and more phone communication, but his boss was still living in the past.
