11. She Must Find Out
Isabella immediately hid behind Jayden’s back, “Jayden, they are about to throw us out, what do we do?”
Jayden looked at the two burly men and spoke with confidence, “are you going to be cruel to children as little as this?”
Other people in the restaurant were only watching but didn’t interfer while a few just ignored what was going on. In the city, everyone had learnt to always mind their business as they do not who is who.
The burly men looked at the girl child’s mother as if asking if she’s in support of her child’s order.
Seeing that the burly guards were looking at her, the girl child’s mother looked at the guards and said, “do as my daughter want.”
At once, the burly men walked quickly to Jayden and Isabella, about to grab them each by their small hands in an attempt to throw them out, two hard resounding kicks suddenly sounded.
At once, the two burly men were seeing flying in the air, they crashed to the wall simultaneously and began to bleed from their skull.
Everyone turned to see the source of what just happened and there was Drake Bell standing like a demon. He held Jayden and Isabella by the arms and spoke to the girl child’s mother, “did you and your daughter dare to bully my children?”
Not recognizing Drake Bell, the girl child’s mother flew up and spoke in anger, “who the fuck are you, Mr? If I report you to my husband, you and your children will end up as my slave for one month. I’ll let you go if you kowtow before my daughter and lick her foot but if you refuse, you can’t blame me for what will befall yourself and your rats.”
“Rats? How dare you open your mouth and call my Beautiful twin rats? You are such an uncultured woman.” Drake Bell knew he was going to crush this woman so bad.
“I see that you are rude…” The woman said and brought out her phone. The girl child looked at Drake Bell and said arrogantly, “you can’t blame my mom for what’s about to happen to you and your rats.”
Hearing the girlchild say this enraged him but it wasn’t in his culture to lay hands on women, old or young , so he could only endure. He wanted the girl child’s mother to do her worse before he would teach her and her daughter some hard lesson.
“You just wait and watch.” The girl child’s mother said. She was already dialing her husband’s phone. Once her husband answered, she cried inside the phone, “hubby, a man and his two kids are bullying my daughter and I. Please save us, we are Kart restaurant.”
“I’ll be there with my men. Ensure that man who dare to bully you doesn’t leave.”
“Okay hubby, come quick,” the woman said pityfull to the phone.
Once the call was over, the expression on her face changed. She smirked and sat, then gestured for her daughter to sit.
Isabella was scared of what’s about to happen so she said to Drake Bell, “let’s leave… I’m scared.”
“I’m with you. No one born of a woman can hurt you.”
In a jiffy, the door flung open and about six to seven tall and big men walked in. The one in the middle walked up to the girl child’s mother and asked, “dear, who dare to bully you?”
“See him…” The girl child’s mother pointed to Drake Bell.
The man turned to Drake Bell in rage but he recognized him at once. This is the CEO of the biggest company in the country… What! Why would he come to such a cheap restaurant. Although Drake Bell didn’t recognize him, he recognized Drake Bell so well and infact, his small company had been trying all these while to get even the smallest contract from BELL’S LTD. Who would have known that he would meet the mysterious CEO in a place like this.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
The few people that had heard of Drake Bell knew very well of how merciless he can be. Everyone in the business world are scared of him. People don’t even get to see him often, he was rare and difficult to see. The girl child’s father couldn’t grab his heard around why Drake Bell would be here, holding two children who strangely looked like him.
“Hubby… what are you waiting for? Deal with him,” the girl child’s mother persuaded.
There are many things people don’t know about Drake Bell. Although he was found of moving around with escorts, the truth is, even if he walks alone, it will be difficult for his enemy to defeat him.
The girl child’s father suddenly fell to his knees and kowtowed before him, he looked up and said, “Mr. Drake, forgive my daughter and my wife, they are not wise.”
Drake Bell realized that he was one of the few who recognized him. “If you train your daughter well, she wouldn’t be rude to others. I’ll make you and your family suffer.”
The door opened at that moment and Liam and Sarah appeared. Drake Bell had already texted them to come when the woman was acting rude to him. But they didn’t just come alone, they came with fifty men. These fifty men were just a part of the numerous men working under Drake bell. These men were trained assassins to say the list, they understood every language except ‘mercy.’
“Crush the bones of these two…” Drake Bell pointed to the father and mother of the girl child, “as for this little one, leave her. Her parents will teach her again the consequences of being rude.”
At Liam’s signal, the men that came with Liam and Sarah filled the restaurant and evacuated everyone eating. Drake Bell then left with his two kids, he didn’t want them to witness the misfortune that will befall the parents of that girlchild.
As they walked away, shouts of pain of the parents of the girlchild could be heard, their bones were literally being crushed with hard baton. Even if they manage to stay alive, they will never be useful to themselves nor anyone around them, at least, in this lifetime.
Drake Bell drove the kids back to school. After pulling over at the garage, he said to the kids, “be kind and respect everyone around you, old or young but be rest assured that in this world, no one born of a woman can bully you. I’m your dad and it’s a must to ensure you are protected.”
“Okay,” Isabella said while Jayden nodded.
He soon came down and helped the kids out of the car, “we’ll see at home.”
“Okay,” both of the kids said.
Drake Bell didn’t know why he felt somehow at their response. Maybe because he was expecting something like, “Okay dad.” Well, it’s just a matter of time before the kids start to address him as that. Drake Bell watched as the kids walked away, he wondered why they were quiet while they were coming back, they weren’t even whispering to eachother.
He soon got back inside his car and drove away.
What was supposed to be a simple dinner between Drake Bell and his kids had become a trending news on the internet. Trending headlines in the country include, “THE CEO OF BELL LTD WAS SEEN IN KART RESTAURANT WITH TWO STRANGE CHILDREN.”
“DRAKE BELL, CEO OF BELL LTD, BULLIED A COUPLE AT KART’S RESTAURANT.”
“DRAKE BELL FINALLY REVEALED HIS TWO CHILDREN TO THE WORLD.”
The people in the restaurant when the commotion was happening between Drake Bell, his kids and the girl child and his parents had taken pictures and videos and sold it to journalist who were always waiting for celebrities loopholes to ride on.
Amelia received a call from his mom during work and she answered it, “mom, I told you not to always bother me during work hours. Drake Bell already gave all staffs instructions not to answer calls during work hours.” She immediately said.
“I wouldn’t call you if it’s not urgent, Amelia. Since you are working, I will assume you have not heard the recent trending news about Drake Bell?”
“No, mum…” Amelia left her workpost and found a private place, “what’s the news?”
“Check for yourself, my most concern is that the media uploaded Drake Bell with two kids who had the exact same resemblance as him. Infact, the kids and Drake Bell need no DNA test, the resemblance is enough.”
“What! Drake Bell has kids? How?” Amelia asked in shock.
“I’m confused too. Check the news, read for yourself and look into it…” Mila said.
“Okay mom,” Amelia said and hung the call up. Her heart became very troubled and disturbed. She checked the news and saw Drake Bell as the number one trending news in the entire country.
Seeing the picture of two strange kids with Drake Bell, her heart shivered. Her body immediately got engulfed in cold. Drake Bell has two kids? How? Who birth the kids for him? She had been with Drake Bell for years, infact, before Drake Bell ever met Lily, she had known him. They even dated when they were young for many years before she had to travel abroad. And ever since she came back, she had purposely being around him just to win his heart over again but she had not been successful.
At the end, she had not seen him with any other woman in his entire life apart from Lily who he married and later divorced. Or could the kids be for Lily? She thought?
She must find out, she assured herself.
