MORGANA; The Rise And Fall Chapter 17
Le Faye noticed the little girl who had her head rested on her desk.She walked up to her. She must be the little Elizalde.She had seen photos of her and thought she'd be the one since the other children she had seen did not look anything like her, walking up to the little girl, she found her sulking. "Principessa, cosa c'è che non va?" She asked.The little girl recognized the voice.She had heard it from somewhere before. She had not felt like coming to school in the morning but the nanny had brought her. She would be all alone in the house if she did not go as the nanny had do some grocery shoppings.They had only one nanny at their home. Her father had refused employing more. She cooked and took care of her, cleaned the house and did the laundry.Her mother had hated the idea of it being only one servant at their house, so she had spent most of the time outside the home. She couldn't cook anyway and had never cooked.Hearing the voice and thinking of where she had heard It from

Lucas advanced to where Faye sat with his daughter in her arms and laps to take her.She adjusted, giving him room as he bent to take Maya from her arms and their hands brushed against each other for a moment which Lucas immediately halted by taking his hand away from hers.Her hand lingered on Maya's back longer than necessary and she knowingly grazed Lucas' hand again with her fingertips as she relinquished her hold on the sleeping girl. The touch was brief but it spoke volumes to Lucas, igniting a spark of something unspoken between them.He felt a rush of warm contact, a sensation he had felt in a long time.He looked up at Faye and his eyes met hers. He immediately withdrew his gaze from her.She was beautiful and was trapping him in a web he didn't want to end up in. A path he didn't want to go down in."Thank you for taking care of my daughter ma'am. I appreciate your care" he spoke up, ending the silence that seemed to hover over them."She is a special girl" she replied and

"You're thoughtful Lucas!!! Organizing an outreach for orphanages in Montenegro? That was thoughtful" Lucas listened stunned as his father in law praised him."Outreach for orphanages? I did no such thing. What are you talking about?" He asked his father in law, with an unknown expression written all over his face. He was not the one that sponsored any orphanage outreach, in short he had done nothing throughout the weekend other than spending time with his daughter to make up for the emotional turmoil she has endured during the week.Nathaniel who stood few centimeters away from where Lucas was became curious. An orphanage. Le Faye Alcantara. Ever since he saw her on the internet, she had seemed familiar to him but she looked nothing like anyone he had known, yet, something in him told him that she was someone he knew but he did not know from where.He had grown curious of the woman's mysteriousness. She had come to Montenegro but had not announced it to the media either, considering h

Theodore drank as he sat in the Game house.He was the least concerned about whatever that was happening.His brother in-law winning or not winning the upcoming Elections due to low supporters, his sister being accused and dragged all over the internet, his soon to be finishing tenure as the governor, none of it concerned him anymore and he just drank as if drinking and watching the women playing polo was going to take his worries away.It was in one of the occasion he bent to pick up another of the wine bottles to pop that he saw her.Dazzling, beautiful. She was way beautiful than most of the women he had seen.Her fine legs, her waist. The white polo and shorts she wore with a white sneaker made her look so exceptional.He felt as if she had been sent by the heavens to him to please him and take his mind out of the shits that had been happening in his life the last few weeks. She was playing polo in the open area not far from where he sat.She would bend and twist and twirl her bo

Nathaniel was at the Orphanage now. He had dropped from Lucas' car when he had reached his street, but his curiosity could not let him go home and he had gone to the orphanage.It looked very different from what it used to be before, and the need nun had died years ago, just a few years after he sent Morgana abroad.The orphanage had become prettier and larger because it had been expanded from donations they got from numerous people.The children were also fat fed too and their school that was by the side of the church had been redecorated.He had gotten a money once but he did not know whom the sender had been.It has been years, it apparently came from Italy but the account beared no name, so he had donated the large money to the orphanage too since the amount scared him.It was too large and he had no friends from Italy.The dots seemed to begin to connect. Perhaps the Le Faye Alcantara who had appeared in Montenegro was his Morgana.She promised to return the richest billionaire i

"You know nothing about the outreach!! You did not sponsor any outreach!!! Mrs Alcantara is more than capable enough of bearing the whole expenses of the outreach!! Why would you lie Genevieve!!??? Why would you lie?!" He fired at her when she came back from the garden after dismissing the people that had been with her before." Well I do not care. It's not as if she'd grant an interview and talk about how she sponsored the outreach by herself. Your name was mentioned too. You were mentioned as one of the sponsors. We sponsored the outreach together. Or did you volunteer to be one of her sponsors so you could ride on her good image in the state while leaving me behind with my already damaged reputation? Of course not Lucas!! Even if that was what you planned, do you think I would let it happen?" She fired back at him, adjusting her dress and reapplying lip gloss to her lips." I'm very disappointed in you Genevieve, why would you be lying!! This is so much! Why are you... "" Oh pleas

Le Faye watched as the parents of her students began to troop into the classroom.There were a total of Sixteen children in her class, so she expected atleast fifteen of them, that is including Genevieve.She knew she would come. She would come. She counted on her hunch. It was already coming to play, what she had expected, what she had planned..Women were the major attendees of the meet together she had called for.Right had arrived and each of them had dressed up so glamourously, ofcourse to outshine the others.It was a school of the "who was who" in Montenegro, the wives of the owners of different companies and wives of politicians as well.She couldn't help but notice how they dressed in order to out dress the other, silently yet subtly showing off their wealth.She even noticed that one carried the limited edition MusiDioree bags that were released the last week, while another wore LsX's newest inches heel.She laughed within her and continued to make her way into the class."

The intimidation cutting across the meeting was glaring and felt by Faye.She quietly observed how the power dynamics was playing and at how the other women let Genevieve make all the decisions without uttering a word to dispute her suggestions, whether they liked it or not."We're set then, the children won't be performing on the school's annual party. We shouldn't stress them. They are still kids and shouldn't be made to face the humiliating eyes of the crowd that'd judge them. We shouldn't let them disgrace themselves in public at this young age" Genevieve finished and her husband, Lucas quietly tucked at her hand when she said her last words.Faye had suggested the class perform on the day of the annual party but Genevieve had refused.Some parents had accepted it but because Faye had said that she would include all the children in the dance and singing, Genevieve had vehemently refused, fearing that her daughter would disgrace her in public on the day of the party.The school wa

Morgana's heart was heavy as she walked into the airport. Going to Italy seemed to be the only solution to the guilt she felt. No, that wasn't what she wanted. That was never what she had envisaged her revenge to end up as. It took a different turn because of Lucas' decision. All she had planned, the years and efforts she had wasted hoping to put Genevieve behind bars where she would be a prisoner of her thoughts, of her fall and that of her family's, where she and her father would have no one else to blame for what had befallen them but themselves, it all seemed to be bygones now. Her eyes darted to the screen and the news being announced. "Good evening. Breaking news tonight from Montenegro, a series of shocking revelations and tragic events have captivated both national and international audiences, making waves across the internet. The controversy began with the arrest of Theodore Montenegro, the former governor of Montenegro, whose recent trial took an unexpected turn.

"This is your fall Genevieve, whether you like it or not. This is your fall" Morgana muttered as she continued to struggle with her in the locked car, using all her might regardless of the knife that had been driven to her belly to reach out to the car controls to open the car doors."I will never fall, especially not at your hands. I will keep my head up high. I will keep rising. I will never fall!!!" Genevieve continued screaming as they struggled with each other.Successfully unlocking the cars doors, Morgana stepped out trying to run away amidst the stab wound in her belly.Nathaniel came rushing to where she was, pushing Genevieve who tried to assault her the more right into the car.Lucas had arrived and on coming down from his car to behold the stab wound on the already weak Morgana, he took the driver's seat of the car Genevieve had been pushed into.Nathaniel carried Morgana to the opposite lane and tried calling an ambulance while awaiting the arrival of the police he had c

"Miss Genevieve, I will do you the favor of walking you out of the classroom ma'am. Consider it my last form of respect to you who was once the head of the school's Parent's Teachers Association" Morgana said and motioned Genevieve to the door but she didn't seem to budge, still drowned in thoughts of what she had said to her earlier." Ma'am, I'll plead with you to stay outside now. I wouldn't want my guests to be frightened when the police come for you" Morgana sought to add and it seemed as if her last sentence struck a chord with Genevieve as she began to walk away, while she, followed her, leading her to the door." Say, why don't you follow me to the crime scene Morgana? Wouldn't you want to pay your last respects to your parents as well? I heard you never found their body. That's so much you could do yet brag so loudly and vainly" Genevieve said to her as they reached outside, finally finding her voice in the privacy engulfing the both of them at the passage way.Morgana batted

Morgana was discussing with some parents when she noticed Genevieve walking towards her. It was a rare sight considering the face that she had been declared wanted by the police. Standing up to meet her, Morgana couldn't help but taunt her. It was her downfall she had come for. The downfall of the driver that had hit her mother."Mrs Genevieve, or is it Miss? I do not know what title to refer you by, the news about the divorce is spattered all over the internet"Genevieve slapt her immediately the words came from her mouth. The women sitting down behind them gasped. Torn on what to do at Genevieve's presence, considering that she had been a member of their club yet now wanted for heinous crimes.Morgana held her cheeks, holding back her anger." Ma'am, violence isn't allowed in the school. Have you forgotten? Ohh, I almost forgot. You're not a parent again and it's understandable that you might not recall some of the school rules"Angered by he utterance, again Genevieve landed a sl

Montenegro's face twisted with anger as he grabbed his daughter by the arm, dragging her roughly toward the basement. She stumbled, trying to keep up, tears streaming down her face."Please let me go father, I promise to become better from now on" she pleaded. "How many times do I have to tell you to behave in front of the press Genevieve? You're supposed to act properly so you'd be loved by all. So you'd steal attention. So you'd be the talk of the internet for weeks to come!!!" he shouted, his voice echoing through the house."Dad, please, I'm sorry!" she cried, her voice breaking with fear. "I promise I'll do better, please don't lock me up again!"Her mother rushed forward with panic in her eyes. "Honey, please, let her go!" she begged. "She's just a child! You locked her up for days already, please have mercy! You can't keep locking her up each time she all's short of your expectations. She's human"He turned on his wife, furiously "Stay out of this!" he bellowed, raising his h

The house had a shabby look and still had the white table clothes that had been used to cover the properties.Everywhere was dusty as well.Nathaniel watched a dog come in. It might have come in from the neighbors houses as he left the gate open.He let it be. Atleast it was going to keep him company. He walked over to a carton and began to unbox it. It had some of their family portraits. They were mostly of him and his mother and only few had his father in it with them.It tucked at his heart. He couldn't blame only his mother for running away and abandoning him when he was little. He had witnessed how she was always abused by her husband, perhaps she had left them hoping that it would be the right decision to make.He couldn't take it out on her. She took the decision for her life and he would advice any woman in her shoes to take such decisions too, if they had been in his mother's sort of marriage.A marriage that had the husband always abusing and neglecting his wife. With his

The flickering light of the single lit candle cast long, wavering shadows on the walls of their small home. Now that he was thinking about it, he couldn't help but wonder why they had lived in such a shabby humble place while the new family of his father's he met lived in a mansion. Their house seemed old, so it meant that his father had always been rich since tie immemorial but left them to live in a humble home and environment.His mom had sat by the wooden table, the one he was currently staring at, and her fingers had nervously traced the grain of the wood. Her heart was heavy, burdened by the silence and the secrets that had settled between her and her husband. He recalled his father, Dante entering the house, his tall frame blocking the light momentarily. He had the air of a man who was always in a hurry, always preoccupied with something just beyond reach. His mom took a deep breath, mustering the courage to confront him. "Dante" she began softly, "this is getting too much,

The Banner that bore the People's Progressive Party title on top of the party house had been removed. A new banner for a start up company was being used to replace it.In a short while everything about the PPP had been erased, even their party office sold out.Lucas watched as the Carpenters hammered the new name on, while some repainted the walls giving it a whole new vibe."Governor, you don't need to worry. I'm sure nothing would be found on you. You'd still remain the governor of Montenegro after the probe" his assistant tried to console him.His former assistant rather.He had switched places. He had resigned not wanting to work for the government again. But he had come to him to exchange pleasantries after he saw him in front of the Party house.Lucas knew that he was just trying to condole with him.He was sure he wouldn't be found innocent. He carried out alot of bad deeds on of his father in-law's orders.It had already been more than a week his probe started and no feedback

Genevieve listened on as her father made a call to Dante.He was the last escape route they had and she was sure he would find a way to sneak them out of the house and the country without the police finding out.He was skilled in doing such, that is why her father had taken him in as his cartel business partner."He said we should get ready. Just pack a few things. We'd leave by midnight" her father muttered to her before dropping his phone on the table.She wanted to say something to him but she was interrupted by the gunshots they heard from the gate."They're here" she announced to her father and began running away.Her father stood up and took to his heels, following her as well.The both of them had been declared wanted. Not just for one crime nor for their embezzlement and stashed slash funds, the new accusation that came up and had Theodore's voice as the testimony was a big factor too and they couldn't save themselves from it. The evidences we're glaringly clear.She ran to th
