"Hello father" Gabriel answered the call tentatively.
"What is this I hear, what is going on? Where is my daughter in law?" Gabriel winced. His father, the founder of Lockwood entertainment loved Elsa like his own daughter. He had only stepped down from management and given the CEO role to Gabriel, after he married Elsa. He never joked with her. He had been against Elsa retiring and had only stopped protesting after she convinced him it was her choice. Gabriel knew his father would be very angry about this. "I don't know father." he managed to answer. "What do you mean? You don't know where your wife is? I warned you about this when you married her right, I told you if you hurt her, I wouldn't take it lightly with you." "Dad, calm down, we just had a slight argument and she left, It's nothing serious, I will find her." "A slight argument and she had her former manager post the divorce papers and an announcement on her company's official page? Are you sure you are okay Gabriel?" "Yes dad, I am okay. I am also surprised at this divorce, I had no idea about it." "and yet your signature is on the paper." his father pointed it out. "I will deal with it dad, I promise." "You better." his father replied and hung up the call. "Fuuccck!" Gabriel cursed as he put the phone down. What was going on with Elsa. What had prompted this divorce move tonight. When she had given him the papers and walked out earlier. He had thought she would be back soon especially after knowing how helpless she would be. But to his surprise, the divorce announce had been the next thing he had seen. He picked up his phone again and looked at the announcement again. It was that June's fault obviously, she was the only one who would give Elsa such audacity. But what Gabriel was really curious to know was what Elsa knew. Had she left simply because she saw the signed divorce papers. If that was all, it would be easy to bring her back to him. But if she knew he was cheating and that it was Stella, her younger sister. It would be so fucking messy. He had to talk to Elsa immediately. She would be at that June's house. Just as he was about to leave, he heard the front door open, he hurried to the door, thinking it was Elsa but it was Stella. He immediately masked his annoyance. "Baby, I saw the announcement, what is going on?" she asked as she hugged him. Gabriel narrated what had happened earlier to Stella. "That's strange. Just like that? Do you think she found out about us?" Stella asked. "I don't know, I really don't know. But I do know this has June written all over it, she has never liked me" "But baby, this is a good thing don't you think?" Stella asked. Gabriel frowned. "How is it a good thing?" "Didn't you want the both of you to divorce, I mean you have been looking for a way to divorce her for a whole now. Maybe this is the universe way to help us." Stella told him, smiling. "Yes...yes I suppose it is. But I still need to know exactly what Elsa knows." "I know where she is." "Where?" Gabriel asked. "At June's house. She didn't come home so that's where she is" "Okay, first thing tomorrow morning, I will be there." Gabriel said in a decisive tone. "No, you can't go there." Stella disapproved. "Why?" "have you forgotten? June hates you. She won't allow near Elsa. I should be the one to go. She trusts me remember." "What if she has found out about us?" "Then I will know, Elsa can't lie to me. If she really knows about us, we will have to come up with a plan to get the public on our side first." "i really hope this plan of yours works." "Don't worry love, it will work." Stella assured him. Gabriel sighed and sat on the chair. Stella smiled mischievously as she straddled him. "Stella what are you doing?" Gabriel asked. "We have never done it here, now that the house is ours, we have to do it." she smiled seductively as she put his hand on her breasts. She slowly started to grind on him. "Stella, I don't think this is a good idea tonight." Gabriel protested. "But junior Gabriel thinks it's a splendid idea. He is even standing to make a point." Stella told him as she moved against his hardening member. She leaned down and kissed him. Soon Gabriel forgot about why it was a bad idea. He picked her up and took her to the room he used to share with Elsa. THE NEXT MORNING Elsa was in the kitchen looking through the cup boards for something to eat. "What are you looking for?" June asked as she joined her in the kitchen. "Something to prepare breakfast with but all I can find is cereal and junk snacks." Elsa replied. June shrugged, "That's all I eat." "June, you have to eat healthy." Elsa scolded. "Yes mom. Maybe while you are here, you can make I sure i do that." "I will be sure to do that. First you have to go grocery shopping" Elsa directed. "just write down what you need, I will give the list to the person who helps me buy stuff." June told her. "Okay." Elsa replied. She took a notebook and a pen from the table and started writing. When she was done, she passed the list to June. "all these?" June asked in shock as she looked at the list. "Yes, all these. We are going to eat healthy in this house." "Yes mom." June replied in an amused tone as she took a picture of the list and passed it to her helper. "in two hours time, the groceries should be here." she told Elsa. "ok, I will make two bowls of cereals for us." "please put lot of sugar in mine." June told Elsa. "No, just milk. Sugar isn't good for you." Elsa retorted. "Oh God." June groaned. She heard the doorbell ring. "Are you expecting someone?" Elsa asked. "No, the helper won't be here with the groceries until later in the day. I am not expecting anyone else." The doorbell rang again. "I will go check who is there." June stood up and went to the door. She opened the door and gasped. The last person she expected to see was at her door."Good mornings June, is Elsa here?""Asher, what are you doing here?" June asked."I saw the divorce announcement and I knew if she wasn't here, you would know where she was. Where is she?" he asked."She is here, come in." June replied as she stepped back allowing Asher into the house."June who was at the door?" Elsa asked as she came out of the kitchen holding two bowls of cereal.She came to an abrupt stop when she saw Asher."Asher?""Hi Elsa."June went to Elsa and took one of the bowls from her."He came to see you, I will be in the kitchen." she whispered.Before Elsa could stop her, June had already left, leaving Elsa and Asher alone."please sit down." she told Asher."Thanks." Asher said as he sat down."How have you been?" Elsa asked him."I am fine. What about you, I saw the announcement June made yesterday, I got so concerned. I knew you had to be here or she would know where I could find you.""I am okay Asher, divorce isn't a shocking thing. When you feel the marriage
Elsa covered her mouth to stifle her gasp as she stepped back, tears burned in her eyes, she couldn't believe it. There was her husband, entangled in a passionate embrace with her sister, Stella. Two of the closest people in her life had chosen to betray her without a care in the world. How long had this been going on? Had they always been doing this behind her back, had she been the fool all this time? Stella was her baby sister and she loved her a lot, she always treated her nicely. And as for Gabriel, she had showed him love, she had loved him with all her heart. When he had asked her to leave her career to marry her and be his wife, she had agreed without question. When he had asked her to invest her savings into his income, she had also agreed as well. All because of the love she had for him. And as for Stella, when she had come to Elsa, asking for help with her dream of being an actress, she had agreed whole heartedly. She had taught her everything she knew about acting
"That bastard... How dare he?" June cursed."What do I do June? If Gabriel divorces me, I have nothing.""Elsa,why would you invest all your savings in the company?" June scolded her."The company was struggling and I thought since we were married and in love, there was nothing wrong with helping him out""And then the bastard had the audacity to cheat on you with that shameless sister of yours. I knew she was always up to no good.""June, I have nothing to my name, my career is dead. I have no money, my mom will obviously take my sister's side, she has done that all my life. I don't know what to do."June held Elsa's chin up to look at her."You have me Elsa, don't you ever forget that, you have always had me. And we will get through this together""I am sorry I lashed out at you at the wedding." Elsa apologized.She patted Elsa's cheek affectionately."It's okay, I understand. You were in love and I could have also told you how I felt in a calm manner too. Let's start over, okay?"
Elsa could feel the gears turning in June's head."What do you mean? You told everyone that you were retiring to focus on your marriage and family. Wasn't that true? Didn't Gabriel ask you to retire?" she fired questions at June. "You are right, Gabriel did tell me to retire but I didn't do it for him like I told everyone.""Then why did you retire?""Because i wanted something new. Acting and the entertainment world was all I had known for all my life. I was becoming tired of it all. So when Gabriel proposed and asked me to retire, I jumped at the opportunity. I thought marriage would be my new thing but I was wrong." Elsa explained everything to her."It's okay, I understand everything. I won't say anything about you going back to work anymore. You can just stay with me for the rest of your life and I will take care of you." she suddenly put on a fake solemn expression.Elsa couldn't help herself, she burst into laughter."June, I am not asking you to do that, I will think of somet
