The Billionaire 3: Tyron Cruz novel Chapter 12

“Good morning, Bella.” Sheryl and Lorraine greet her.

“Good morning too and thank you for inviting me here.” She smiles before looking at the studio audience. “And good morning to our studio audiences and to our viewers.”

“It is us who should be thankful because you decided to accept our offer even though your schedule is fully packed.” Sheryl said.

“Yes, that’s true.” Lorraine agreed. “For the past four months, we really can’t fit on her schedule. That is why we are so happy that today, Bella is here with us now!”

“Sorry about that, we really tried to fix the schedule but to no avail. That is why last week, Hal mentioned your show again, unfortunately, we already agreed to shoot with Storm Airlines for a commercial, and the remaining days of the week were my day-off. That is why I told him to move some of my schedule to fit your shooting day.”

“Aww, that’s so nice of you, Bella.” Lorraine smiles. “You don’t know how that means to us.”

“And since you’ve mentioned Storm airlines, we have questions about that but that will be for later.” Sheryl said, and basing from her looks, she already knew what she is going to asks.

“For now, we will start on your humble beginnings.” Lorraine started. “How did Bella started her career in show business and the question the public is always asking, who is Bella? You are famously known as Bella, it a real name or just a screen name?”

First of all, Bella is just a nickname, I don’t really want to disclose any personal information as of the moment. I think, it is already enough that the public knows when I was born and that my mother died. I hope you can understand that.” She tried to smile. “And for the question, who am I? Well, all I could say is that what you see on or off camera, that’s me, no pretentions at all. And I guess, the public is already knows how I started my career.”

“You are indeed mysterious, Bella!” Lorraine commented.

“There are people who really wants to hide their identity to the public.” Sheryl commented. “I don’t mean to offend you, Bella, but are you hiding something?” She asks, seriously.

“Well, all of us were hiding something.” Bella smiles. “I’m sorry but I can’t answer this question, Sheryl. But you will have my word that when the time comes, I will definitely come back here again and tell you personally.”

“Well, we will have your word then.” Sheryl answers.

“Let’s talk about how you got discovered by one of the famous and talented directors in the country, Direk Mike.” Lorraine started. They talk about how she was discovered until the dramas and movies she made.

“Everything I accomplished was all thanks to the Lord and Direk Mike for helping me to where am I now.” Bella said.

“As far as I could remember, there are rumors that you have an affair with Direk Mike, how true is that?” Sheryl asks making her laugh.

“There is no truth on that.” She answers. “As I always said, Direk Mike is like a father to me, he’s the one who opened the door for me to enter the entertainment world. There was this time that I told him that maybe this path is not for me especially that his credibility was being question because of me, but he is the one who taught me to fight back by showing the public what I’m capable of, not just for the public nor myself but also for my mother.

During that time, my mother was still alive and is undergoing chemotherapy. Direk Mike told me to ignore those malicious rumors and comments. He is also the one who told me to shut my haters with my success and that’s what I did. That is why I really respect him.” Bella explained.

“And you really followed his advice, I mean, look at you now, dubbed as a phenomenal star. I also heard that you wake up with lots of offers at hand.” Sheryl said.

Bella just smiles.

“We will take a short break before we continue having a chat with Bella.” Lorraine said and the camera stop rolling.

“So, how is your love life?” Lorraine asks as soon as they started to go live again. “Just a week ago, an article about you and Anthony was published.”

“Oh, that.” She smiles. “We really are at that restaurant.” She answers and she heard some gasps and whispers from the audience. “But we are not alone, the whole crew and cast of the Close Files are there. We are just having a dinner.” She added. “After that I went home with my manager and my stylist.”

“Oh, so you’re not in relation with Anthony?” Sheryl asks.

“No.” She answers.

“I don’t know if I’m going to ask you this but I’m sure you already heard about my interview with Reina Lambert last night.” Sheryl said, and she nods. “For the past few days, there are photos of you and Tyron Cruz posted on the social media. When I asked Reina about this last night, she indirectly said that you are a mistress.” Sheryl added then through the projector, pictures of Tyron and her were flashed, and the audience screams in delight.

Bella looks at the audience and smiles. “Oh, we look good together, right?” She asks, making them scream again.

Then she looks at the camera. “Hey, Tyron, the crowd says that we look good together.” She winks making the crowd crazy.

“Oh, is Tyron watching right now?” Lorraine asks.

“Knowing him, he might be watching this instead of working on those pile of documents.” She chuckles. “But I am really shocked to see our photo on the café.” She slightly shakes her head when she saw their photo outside the café near his airlines.

“What’s the story behind that, Bella?” Sheryl asks.

“That was after the shoot for Storm Airlines.” She answers, while her eyes were focused on the projector screen.

“And?” Lorraine asks, waiting for her answer.

“And that’s it.” She answers making the two host raised their eyebrows.
