Mummy, Daddy is on his knees

Rihanna’s jaw clenched in anger, she made an attempt to snatch the luggage once more only to be pushed back a little by Damien.

“I’ll give you ten minutes to pack up every single one of your belongings and leave this minute!”

Her lips parted with a soft gasp escaping, was he really asking her out of the room? just because of this shameless b*tch?!

“Dami.. you-

“Do as I say!” He interjected with a sharp glare which sent shivers down her spine..

Olivia smirked at Rihanna’s annoyed expression, that’s what she gets for trying to belittle her, this was just the beginning..

Damien took a glance at Olivia, it would be best if they left for their dinner with Mr Jones, while Rihanna packed her things out of the room before they got back..

“I guess you must be famished.. you’ve stressed yourself so much today.. how would I explain that to Kelvin if I drain his mum out so much?”

Olivia snapped a brow, since when did he start caring? but given as Rihanna was still staring at them in anger, she decided to act a little more clingy..

She touched her temples feigning a headache “Yeah you’re right.. I’m so tired”

She staggered forward and immediately Damien’s arms were around her to keep her in place..

“Easy.. let me help you to the bed.. we can cancel the dinner with Mr Jones if you’re not feeling alright”

Olivia gave a nod, she held his arm walking slowly to the bed and of course she didn’t miss to bump her shoulder against Rihanna’s petite frame..

Rihanna was left puzzled, that should have been her holding unto Damien like that, not this sly fox! She really couldn’t do anything except to heave up and down in anger..

Damien placed a finger under Olivia’s jaw pulling it upward to take a closer look at her face..

“Stay right here.. I’ll be back” He murmured softly with a small smile which made Olivia a little bit confused..

Should she be worried and scared for her life? Damien was being too nice since today, she wondered what brought about this sudden change.. doesn’t he hate her?

She managed to give a small and also a nod, he left her side and stopped just when he was about to open the door..

He turned back to Rihanna who was still in a daze standing a few feet away from him….

“Before I get back, you better be out of this room or else I won’t go easy on you”

“Dami-

The sound of the closing door was heard and after which a chuckle emerged from the other end of the large room..

Rihanna diverted her gaze to Olivia, her eyes burned red in anger..

“You sly b-

Olivia stepped out of the bed clicking her tongue mockingly..

“I really pity you Miss Brown.. how much lower can you stoop? you flew all the way over here for what exactly?”

Rihanna took a step forward to the daring lady “I came here for Damien! whom you’re trying to snatch away from me! don’t you see that you’re the one ruining my relationship with him?!”Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Olivia’s pupils dilated, one thing she wouldn’t take or tolerate was someone lying against her, because she’ll be left with no other option than to do just what she has been accused of to justify their claims..

She crossed her arm beneath her bossom with a brave stance..

“You know what? I never actually thought of taking your place in Damien’s life, but you’ve left me no other choice Miss Brown, I’ll make sure I get my child’s father and you won’t be able to do anything about it!”

Rihanna pointed a warning finger at Olivia’s face but to amazement the latter grabbed it and gave it a tight squeeze..

“Ouch!” Rihanna yelped out in pain and pulled out her finger from Olivia’s grasp..

“Keep that finger to yourself! Now go on.. pack up your things and get the hell out of here!”

Rihanna’s eyes teared up, she was being bullied, Alexa wasn’t here to back her up like always which made her turn towards the closet to pack up the things she already piled up in there..

Xander muffled his laughter as he watched the stubborn lady in front of him trying to reach for the ketchup on the top shelf..

Whoever made this arrangement was surely awful and unjust to the average height people, just how on earth were they supposed to reach for the top shelves?

“You won’t die if you ask for help”

Bianca heard him mumble behind her, she quickly turned around on her heels and shot him a mean look, she failed to understand why he was here in the first place..

She had a hunch this had something to do with Sandy the ‘Matchmaker’ She had successfully paired her daughter with Damien and now she was trying to do the same for her..

No less, her mum was also a part of whatever plan this was.

“I’m not a damsel in distress for you to help me.. I can reach it.. it’s just that… I’m not really ready to take it just yet”

Xander’s brows arched, he raised his hands in a surrender gesture and watched her hopping like a rabbit to reach for the ketchup..

When he couldn’t stand it anymore, he stood behind her and raised his hand to the ketchup..

On feeling the warm body just behind her, she turned around to see their close proximity, she raised her head from his chest to his face..

His blue orbs locked against hers..

“There’s something about you that drives me crazy”

Bianca snapped out of her daze when she heard his whisper, she placed both hands against his chest and pushed him a little away from her..

“Everything about you makes me go mad!” She murmured in irritation, her eyes settled on the ketchup he was holding..

“Great! you got it” She sarcastically remarked snatching the bottle of his hand..

He watched her back leaving and a smirk curled up on his lips,..

“Playing hard to get.. this is gonna be fun”

Becky walked into the quiet living room, her brows furrowed confusedly, Xander wasn’t at his company and surprisingly it was quiet here too..

“Wait a minute.. is he still asleep?”

She rushed up the stairs gently and straight to Xander’s room, she knocked on it once and pushed the door open after which she stepped in…

His room looked messy, just like their teenage days, he was never one to clean up..

She turned to leave the room when she heard the water running in the bathroom..

“Great! he’s still in the bathroom..”

She walked to the bathroom’s door banging on it severally..

“You little piece of sh*t! you’re still taking a shower? I thought we made plans today! get yourself out this minute!”

As if paying heed to her, the water stopped running, but that didn’t stop her from knocking gently on the door..

Unexpectedly, the door opened abruptly with her fisted hand on air ready to give another knock..

Becky was left in a daze, her eyes fell on the firm build of the man in front of her, who was he? she had no idea.. her gaze was deeply engrossed on his abs that glittered with drops of water rolling down and vanishing into the towel hung on his waist..

She slowly raised her head to meet the blue deep set of eyes peering at her curiously, this wasn’t Xander but his cousin Charles..

Heat crept up to Becky’s cheeks, she suddenly closed her eyes and turned away from him..

“I’m really.. so.. s.. orry, I thought it was Xander in there.. bye”

Without waiting for his reply, she dashed out of the room..

Charles stared at the spot she was standing a while ago with a devilish grin on his lips, he had to use Xander’s bathroom because his shower was broken..

Anita clasped her hand nervously, honestly this was the first time she was feeling this way about a family meeting, the feeling of being caught in a bad act..

Bruce and Tracy just arrived a while ago, and Elder Sterling just called for everyone’s presence..

Aldrin noticed her tense behavior the moment he stepped into the room, this was unlike her, if it were to be any other day, she’d have been the first one to be present..

“Are you now scared of Tracy?”

Anita raised her head when she heard him speak, she was a bit startled by his presence but managed to cover up with a small fake smile..

“No way! it’s just that Bruce would be there and I don’t know how to face him after-

Anita’s lips paused, she almost forgot that Aldrin didn’t know the truth..

“After?” He questioned with an interrogative stare, she felt bad for keeping something as important as this from her husband..

“Forget it.. I.. really didn’t have anything to say”

“I have a feeling that you’re hiding something from me, tell me Anita.. I’d be very upset with you if I find out about it from others”

Anita bit her bottom lips with a sigh..
