All I had lost

“We both have a score to settle with both of them, I suggest we both join hands together in making them pay, it’s high time we take back what belongs to us”.
“How do I even know I can trust you, I barely know you, how am I sure you won’t turn on me instead, who knows this might just be part of your plan too”.
“It’s a good thing you don’t trust me, because I don’t either, I might change my mind and turn on you instead, after all, you’re the much easier prey”.
At least he’s honest, I’ll give him that.
“I’m also taking a risk here as well, how do I know you won’t go blabbing to Leo, after all, you have been quite close from birth, but I’m willing to give it a shot, I’m giving you a chance Nina to take back everything you’ve lost and then some, so how is it going to be, are you in or out”.
“I have to think about it, I’m not sure if I can trust you, I mean we are talking about going against my sister which ultimately means going against my family since she has everyone on her side, I don’t know if I’m ready for that yet, I need some time”, I said solemnly.
“I wasn’t expecting an answer from you immediately, I hope you make up your mind soon, I’m not known for being patient”, he said.
That being said, I drank the last of my coffee and stood up.
“I have to go now, I’ve spent more than enough time here”, I said.
“Let me drop you off”, he offers.
“No, no that won’t be necessary”, I said quickly, it’s bad enough that he had seen me at my worst, him knowing where I live would put a final nail to the coffin of my embarrassment”.
“I insist”.
That was the end of it, somehow he drove me home and even escorted me to my doorstep, saying he needed to make sure I got home safe, coming from another person I would have been touched, but I wasn’t so sure if he meant it or if he just wanted to know where I live to finish me off.
He handed me his card, “I’ll be waiting for your response soon Nina, don’t keep me waiting”, he said and left. I had no response to that.
“Well, well, well, look who finally decided to come back to her house and in another man’s car too”, May’s voice came behind me.
God, I do not have the strength to deal with this now, “How did you get in here, May”, because I very well don’t remember giving her the keys to my apartment.
“Can’t I pay my beautiful sister a visit”, she says.
A visit indeed, more like she came to brag, I headed over to the fridge, I’m going to need a boost, if I’m going to listen to her brag.
“Anyways I wanted to see you, so I got the keys from my love Leo, he sent his greetings”.
I cringe, I need to change my lock
“I brought good news”.
I raise my brows in indifference like I couldn't care, I just needed her out of my space
“Guess whose design got picked by the client”, she says
No way.
“Yes, you guessed right, My designs, do you know what he called them”.
I gripped the glass tightly, anything to prevent me from divulging how I felt.
“He said they were Magnificent, Jewelries, worthy of being adorned by the royal family, do you know what that means, your beloved sister is now a recognized Jeweler in the entire continent and I couldn’t have done it without your help, it’s all thanks to you”.
“Are you done”, I said through gritted teeth.
“Dad’s happy about the development and he is proud to have a daughter like me, so we’re having a family dinner in honor of me to celebrate our win. He's willing to forgive you the other daughter that brought disgrace to him by stealing my work, he wants you to be there”.
“You have to be kidding me”
There’s no way I could believe a single word she said, especially not after Father threw me out of his office.
“You can always refuse to attend and add to your list of disappointments, more pints for me, but a word of advice if I were you, I would attend the dinner, that is except if you have another family somewhere that is rich”.
“Are you done now?”.
“Be there, Nina”,
“Get out!!”.
May sashays off laughing. At that moment I was a hundred percent sure I was capable of murdering someone. I could practically see the headlines
The daughter of a prestigious tycoon murders step sister in jealousy.
What do they know, screw them all!!.

NinaDid I ever mention how badly I hate family dinners? The Amber family dinner it’s always an elaborate affair, Different extended relatives, cousins, maternal and paternal sides, and even those married into the family and those affiliated as well everyone who wants a piece of the Amber fortune gather together in one place to reminisce and to talk about things they've missed, in other words, it’s a hellhole, a gathering relations show off the things they've achieved recently, make fun of other relative losses, gossip about whose family is failing pretending to be in good terms but at the same time looking for weaknesses of the other that they can latch their sharp teeth onto. Everyone’s praying for what the others stand for and at the same time also hypothetically wishing the other more winnings.They were all a bunch of hypocrites each of them seeking to out-do the other and at the same time get to the top of the food chain, and guess who's at the top, yeah you guessed right my fa

NinaI walked into Alexander’s office with a sense of determination, I had finally decided to work against my family, but most especially against my sister May and Leo, that backstabbing cheater.“Welcome Miss Nina, we’ve been expecting you”, the receptionist said as soon as she saw me.“Right, this way Ma’am.” She led me into an elevator and pressed a button. Immediately she stepped back.“Wait, you’re not coming", I said, confused.“No ma’am, the boss likes his privacy, he specifically requests for you to be directed into his office as soon as you arrive”.“B.. but how would I know his office”.“It's not hard to miss, his office is on the entire top floor”. The elevator door closed.The entire top floor, I was stunned, exactly how rich he said he was again, the elevator dinged its arrival and stepped out of it into a very huge office, my jaw dropped to the floor.“ Ah, I see you’ve arrived Nina, glad you could make it”, Alexander said, looking so handsome in his suit, he looked so e

NinaThe event was one of the biggest occasions I had ever seen, the organization by my family didn’t even come close and they were lavish. To be honest, I developed cold feet. Alexander had a hard time convincing me to attend this event, but I wasn’t so sure, what if they didn’t like me, if I somehow managed to embarrass myself like I always do, what if I’m not good enough. What if May wins? I was drowning in a bunch of what-ifs, but Alexander pulled me out of it.“Relax, you would do just great, I’ll be by your side, have no fear.”It was the only way I could summon the courage to attend. As we arrived at the party all eyes were on us, we made a stunning couple and I could feel the speculation in the air.“Are they dating?”.“What the hell is she doing with him?”.We mingled with the crowd having fun and laughing, but I could sense the tension beneath the surface, May was here somewhere probably staring daggers at me, and my family would be wondering what the hell was I doing here,

May“We thought she was the hero all the while.”“Such treacherous scoundrel.I clenched tight against my dress. Those words were supposedly meant for Nina, but tables just turned; the gagged hands of that snorty bastard called Alexander.

That would be the only place where I could hide till the event is over.

MayLeo was waiting in his car outside our gate like he said. On a normal day, he would have pulled into our compound and proudly exchange pleasantries with my father and my mom, and cross his hand around my waist, but I guess tonight would have been the worst of his life if ever he dared step in.“Ma’am, I asked him to come in but he turned deaf ears,” the guard at the gate reported as I got to the gate. The fellow was well one of the gossips, it was on his face.“Get out of the way,” I ordered.The fellow stepped aside. No one ever quelled my access to the gates, and no one would ever do such, unless it’s father’s demand, but the good thing is, father doesn’t seem keen with my way about. He’s is rather more interested with that of his beloved daughter who just made mess of us tonight.Ewww. It’s super cold outside.

Nina“You didn’t tell me you were going to shock the world tonight,” I was all over the award I received earlier. “I saw the shock on their face, my father, my step-mother, my step-sister, and Leo.”Alexander at the far end of the hall was busy. His cigar was lit and his lips puffed smoke in the air. Beside his seat was a side stool on which was nestled a glass of red wine, but his eyes were on the sofa where I sat“And my extended family, I didn’t just see the shock,” I went on. “They seemed to have known longer than my father realized that May has entirely nothing genuine to offer.”I rose from the seat and made to the shelf in the hall. It bore my books, the ones that had something about art, ranging from the records of DaVinci to that of other notable artists, but the ones I preferred most were works of world class jewelers who had so far been my greatest inspiration. I placed my award on the shelf and leaned it to kiss it.“The fight hasn’t started, you know,” Alexander quenched

Alexander I can't believe, Nina can be this outspoken. I love her for this bravery, standing up for what she truly deserves and going head to head with it.When I started trailing her off, the very first time I saw her darling ex-boyfriend, all over around with her step-sister. I knew it wouldn't be long before the cover would be blown.It made me start digging into her affairs, and what I saw amazed me.

Nina “And here comes the only legitimate daughter of the lord of this house, May Amber.” “Come on, you can do better than stare,” my stepmother rose to her feet.“Not for your thieving daughter.”I can't believe my dear sister all had this little display of hers scripted out as if her life depended on it. She looks like a dummy with flowers on her head, like that of a rejected Disney princess.I knew what her plans were, to make an entrance and cover up for her mischievous acts, her failures and sad eyes covered with circles, but I wouldn't let that happen; we would go lower together if she thought this lunch wouldn't be about her."Yeah, let's welcome the world ever known plagiarist," I said, clapping my hands harder and cheering her up. She is going to have the attention she deserves, doesn't she? May stood there with Leo's eyes daring straight at Alexander. They both looked shocked to have seen me and him together.Leo fisted his finger, his face suddenly turned pale with anger

NinaI was in Alexander’s car when it came, a mail from my father’s secretary, the one that did all the mailings, not just for my father but for our entire family.Her name is Lucia, and she is quite good with keyboards. The wordings reminded me of her. I tapped into it and read it out to Alexander’s hearing. Father wants me to attend a family lunch at our place, and the extended family would be there to dine with us. The supposed snakes and scorpions who I knew would bite and sting just May, not me.“Awesome,” Alexander was with the wheel. “Will you honor such?”I raised my brows. Why wouldn’t I honor a family invitation? Yes, we are clearly at war, but the war hasn’t found its way off from our family gate, though Alexander was involved because Leo was involved.“Of course, we should be there,” I looked at him, “Leo will be there with my stepsister.”Alexander chuckled and pulled into a nearby boutique. That was the least I expected. I thought he would protest my idea and make one e
