Chapter 45: Chapter 45

Such as life, I held my purse close and left the boutique which was the last one from the main block. I noticed the entire second floor catered almost all shops with clothes shoes and even jewelry shops. I made my way to the elevator and I wanted to find the lady's room.

Most rooms on the second floor were all changing rooms and I was a little pressed hence I was on the move

"Excuse me...where can I find the lady's restroom?"I stopped a certain lady carrying bags and she turned to me next smiled

"On the first floor...those are available...the ones on this floor are getting fixed today...kindly take the elevator down"the lady was kind enough to answer me politely. I nodded at her and said thank you feeling happy that for the first time I didn't get an eye roll or a rude reply

"I guess they are still good people on planet Earth" I muttered with a scoff and soon reached the elevator. By the time I got back, I was certain Monica would have bought the entire shop. I couldn't survive shopping like that even for my clothes

"Careful," I said to the heavily pregnant lady who was holding a lot of shopping bags in her hands. I looked at her with shock seeing how big her stomach was.

She could barely move around comfortably and the sight of it scared me. I quickly helped her get in the lift safely.

"T...thank you for my dear,  " the nice-looking lady said when I handed back some of her bags. I nodded smiling back at her and stood to the sides as we watched the elevator door close. Deep down I was wondering how she was moving so swiftly with her big pregnancy.

Why would they let her go around holding heavy stuff in such a condition? She didn't seem like an ordinary woman judging by her expensive-looking clothes and jewelry around her neck and wrist.

Her brown hair was short in a bob style and she was a little fat or let me just say had gained due to her condition

For a second I wondered if I would look the same if my tummy started showing. And thinking up to there I felt shivers as I waited for the lift to land but something else happened

"Ahh!" it was the lady who said when there was a jamming sound. More like the elevator was stuck before it reached its destination

"A...are you okay?"I rushed to the lady and held her because she was panicking "calm down ..let me check"I said, patting her on the back to keep calm but the lady seemed hyper more like she was failing to breathe. I got scared when I left her to check on the elevator and the arrows on the monitor were flickering. Fear washed over me seeing this because it only meant

"T...the elevator is...stuck dear...g..get help...I can't breathe in enclosed spaces" the lady said in shortened breaths and I rushed back to her and held her just in time before she could fall.

"Help! Help us, the elevator is stuck!"I shouted as loud as I could while trying to help the lady calm down. She was now breathing heavily and her eyes were rolling scaring me even more

"Ma'am...please calm down...it's...it's going to be okay" I coaxed looking at her and her condition seemed bad. I shouted as loud as I could while rubbing the lady's hand since now we were sitting down while she rested her head on my lap. This was not good. If she passed out then it was trouble

Meanwhile, several men in business suits just entered the main entrance of the same mall and Victor was one of them accompanied by four of his men

"Sir...I'm sure you won't regret setting up a branch of your bank at our mall" the owner of the mall dressed in a navy blue suit in his early thirties said as he guided Victor around.

Victor just maintained a cold aura as he looked around the busy place, it wasn't that bad and the atmosphere was quite pleasant hence not a bad idea to have one of his bank branches at

"Let's start the meeting as soon as possible," Victor said, not wanting to waste any more time there. He had to go back to the office in an hour.
