HER LITTLE BABY GIRL HAD GROWN

Being a multinational company, Crystelle had few shareholders but Kiaraa held ninety percent of the shares which infuriated the board of directors greatly.

Words got out and given the fact that the president of Crystelle never revealed herself, not even to her employees, people started having their doubts and Crystelle was pushed into a major crisis.

The stock price plummeted extensively and due to the heavy workload, Im Nari became frightened as she feared her daughter's outcome. Kiaraa was still too young and all these were a great burden upon her little shoulder and she feared that her daughter couldn't handle it alone.

But she was dead wrong, before she could make some calls to a few investors, she heard on the news that the situation concerning Crystelle had been handled by the so-called mysterious president.

This shocked her greatly, she didn't even lift a finger and Kiaraa handled everything professionally. Without panicking or worse, revealing her identity, she managed to curb the tense situation, and that too with immediate effect. It was on that day she knew that her little baby girl had grown.

.....

Kiaraa sketched the new design of a diamond-encrusted pendant on her drawing tablet with full focus and so she didn't know when someone walked into the classroom until she heard the voice of the teacher.

"Hey what are you doing here? I was informed that I only have two students here in the detention hall and that is Miss Lee and Miss Anderson." The teacher questioned Adrian and the teenager didn't acknowledge her presence but just walked directly to a seat beside Kiaraa's.

The teacher seeing this was stupefied, but noticing the powerful aura coming from him, she didn't probe further on the issue and just went back to reading her magazine. If the young lad wants to have detention then so be it.

Seeing Adrian, Kiaraa had only one question roaming freely in her head, 'Why is he here?'

But she couldn't voice out her thoughts, remembering what he did to her in the cafeteria so she just ignored him and went back to her sketch design.

Adrian noticing that he is being ignored, felt gloomy clouds appearing at the top of his head.

Just then, a female figure with blonde hair and striking blue eyes walked in. The teacher didn't even bother to raise her head this time, she was so done with these bratty rich students.

Claire swatted her hips as she walked gracefully into the detention room. The whole situation seemed mind-blowing to her. She thought she could escape her punishment this time, but no, the teacher had to take the matter to the principal and that's when she had no other choice but to comply.

Walking in, she wanted to have a seat when a godly sight caught her attention. She got a glimpse of silver locks staring intently at the girl sitting beside him who seemed not to notice his presence at all and her eyes narrowed at that sight. 'Why are they always together?' she wondered before finding her way towards them.

"Hi" She greeted in a saccharine tone in order to get his attention but the person in question didn't even bother to acknowledge her which got her more agitated. He continued staring at the girl beside him like a kid who offended his mother and now his mother was refusing to accept his apology.

On hearing her voice, Kiaraa immediately raised her head, and spotting the harsh gaze that was directed at her, she immediately got the message and stood up and made her way towards another seat. The last thing she wanted was to create another scene with Claire.

A small smile played on Claire's lips as she took the seat beside Adrian intending to chat with him. Kiaraa had moved to the farthest seat away from them, besides creating a scene, she didn't want to get a nosebleed too seeming that Claire's perfume was too strong.

"Hey, my birthday is tomorrow, I was wondering if you could come to my party at my father's new hotel," Claire asked and lowered her gaze as if trying to play the cute, shy girl. She didn't even spare a chance to imply that her father was rich by mentioning his new hotel.

"I'm busy," Adrian replied shortly without even batting an eyelid and this action alone made Claire's eyes grow as big as saucers. Everyone was dying to come to her party and not to mention the line of boys who were willing to date her but he...

Kiaraa almost rolled her eyes into her head. Her inspiration from earlier had long vaporized and now her head had gone completely blank all thanks to the noise.

(A/N: I can totally relate.)

She brought out her history textbook to study as she was planning on taking a makeup test on Monday but no matter how much she tried, not a single word was registered in her head.

Claire gaped at Adrian as she watched him turn his head towards Kiaraa. She didn't miss how his gaze softened a little bit once it landed on Kiaraa and her fists clenched out of anger.

Adrian stood up and was getting ready to leave when he stopped in his tracks as if being nailed to the spot. He knew that he couldn't leave two she-wolves in the same room. Even the heavens wouldn't be able to comprehend what might happen between these two.

He stole a glance at Kiaraa and caught sight of what she was doing. The girl was trying so hard to read her history textbook. She seemed frustrated all over and he couldn't help but narrow his eyes at what he saw.

The girl was reading the textbook upside down. How stupid can one be? But this was just too much. He knew Kiaraa was intelligent, in the branch of science and even the extra art classes she took, she had good grades but her intelligence will certainly come to an abrupt stop whenever American history was mentioned.

A small sigh escaped his sexy lips before walking toward her. "Mind if I help?" he asked and Kiaraa raised her head towards him and the look she gave made his throat run dry.

Her eyes were teary and her cherry red lips were parted slightly. On raising her head, she stuck out her tongue and ran them at the bottom of her lips and Adrian gulped hard at this sight. He could feel the skin behind his ears turning pink and he sighed with exasperation. This girl was going to be the death of him.
