Chapter 250

#63

Vanessa quickly left Josie’s room closing the door behind her. Once gone, Josie walked over to the area Vanessa was standing in. Nothing appeared to be missing, but her sketchbook was on the floor. Confused, Josie picked it up and placed it on the table. Later, after her incarceration, she would learn that Vanessa was stealing her designs.

Two days before the car crash, Harold and Christian called Vanessa into his study. When she arrived, she noticed both her father and brother looked displeased.

“Is something wrong father?”

After taking a deep sigh, Harold began to speak.

“Take a seat Vanessa.”

Nervous, she sat in the chair facing the desk. Christian began to speak next.

“Vanessa…it’s already July and you haven’t mentioned anything about college. Did you even apply to any universities? Even with your grades, we should have been able to pull some strings.”

Vanessa’s eyes widen with horror, she hadn’t even thought about college. She’d been so preoccupied with trying to ruin Josie that it slipped her mind.

“Oh well…I’ve just been thinking about what I really want to do. I was thinking about taking a year off-”

“You what!!!”

Harold immediately cut Vanessa off. He couldn’t believe his ears! Taking a year off from her academics was completely out of the question! Christian shook his head as if disappointed.

“Vanessa…maybe we’ve spoiled you too much. Why would you think it’s okay to take a year off? Honestly…why aren’t you more serious about your future. Josie will be attending the top school in Bridgeton and one of the top schools in the world! Why can’t you be more like her?”

The minute he said those words, Christian instantly felt guilty. It wasn’t his intentions to compare Vanessa to Josie. Tears began to fall down Vanessa’s cheeks causing him to feel even worse.

‘Shit…I knew I shouldn’t have said that.‘

Christian felt bad for hurting his little sister’s feelings; but what he didn’t know was that her tears were more out anger than sorrow.

‘That bitch! That fucking bitch! That fucking bitch!!!!‘

Vanessa’s thoughts were racing as Harlod tried to smooth things over.

“Nessie…honey…your brother didn’t mean that. We’re just concerned you’re not taking your future serious-”

“But I am!!!”

Vanessa seethed! They had no idea how SERIOUS she was taking her future! That little bitch Josie was trying to steal everything from her!!! In a panic, Vanessa blurted out her plans before she could even think everything through.

“I want to go to a designing school for architecture and design!”

:

Both Harlod and Christian’s eyes shot up in surprise. Vanessa was interested in architecture and design. Christian spoke next.

“Ness…that’s really great to hear but….do you even know how to do blueprint layouts? I mean…I know you can draw but I’ve never seen-”

“I can show you!”

The words were flying out faster than her thought process at this point. Nervously, she jumped up and ran to her room grabbing her own sketchbook filled with the designs she’d stolen from Josie.

Racing back into the office she nervously handed the book over to Christian. As he began to look at her sketches, his eyes widen. The sketches and blueprints were amazing. Each sketch was creative, detailed, and structured. He had no idea his sister had this type of talent! Staring at Vanessa with slight shame in his eyes for doubting her, Christian beamed.

“Ness….why didn’t you tell us you were this talented!”

Harold looked at Christian with a puzzled expression. Taking the book from him, he began to look through the drawings; his eyes began to beam.

“Nessie!! This is incredible!!! I can get you into any school in this state with these sketches! I’ll get right on it!”

After her meeting with her father and brother, Vanessa raced back to her room. Slamming the door nervously; she began to panic.
