MORGANA; The Rise And Fall Chapter 24
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

The meeting had ended and the parents were walking out of the classroom exchanging greetings with each other, for those that were close."Oh my goodness gracious Stacy, how have you been? You look so pretty in that Lucian dress. Is that one of their newest collections released last week? Oh my Stacy, it fits you so well " Faye heard one of the over zealous women say.She watched her walk up to another lady and praise her and her clothing and bags as well.She looked like a materialist. The one that knew about every new fashion item released in the market and she displayed the character of one too, being friendly with all the women but she noticed some of them did not regard her, perhaps she was below them in the social status ladder.She walked past the woman , walking faster to reach the door before the other parents, so she could lead them out of the door as wave then goodbye ad her vote of thanks to each of them for coming."Oh my, oh myyyy" the woman screamed as she passed her and

"miss FaYe?" A teacher called out, calling Faye's attention which made her turn from the gaze she and Lucas had fixated on each other."Is everything alright?" She asked her."Yes, it's just that I have a question with this your suggestion concerning your performance. If you don't mind, can I have a word with you?"" Oh sure, give me a few minutes then" she said and the lady walked into her class to wait for her.Faye turned back to face Lucas whom she noticed had turned to leave." Mr Lucas, was there something you wanted to discuss with me?" She asked him as he walked away and he paused but did not turn, instead, be continued to walk away.She turned to leave to her classroom then since he couldn't bring himself to talk about what he had wanted to discuss with her. Perhaps the name she has called him.Lucas walked out and could not tell which state of emotion he was in.He didn't feel angry anymore, he felt a new wave of sensation.It was unlike him to be attracted to someone. He wa

The Party House was busy with different people trooping in and out, media camera men as well.It had been leaked on the internet that the Internet Sensation, Le Faye Alcantara would be making her grand entry into the politics of the state and with the party.A few of the Congressmen had held it in high esteem while some did not like her decision because of the sort of party she joined.The People's Progressive Party was known for having the most corrupted members and even though none has pointed accusing fingers and defaming words at the party, it was known amongst the people that the Ppp party was one of the most corrupted in the state.The meeting had already begun with members of the party in attendance, they were in a grand ball now, with supporters sitting across the empty spaces of seats in the Hall."May I have the honour of introducing our Party's new gubernatorial candidate, Me Lucas Elizalde" the man with the microphone said and a few people began to clap as he stepped into

Theodore was awe struck when he saw the lady that had possessed him for the last few days being on stage introducing herself as Le Faye Alcantara, the newest member and shareholder of the People's Progressive Party.She had seemed like an easy catch to him when he had seen her first at the Game House but seeing her now talking so boldly and having the total attention of all the people in the crowd, he couldn't help but marvel how she was perfect at it.It made his desire for her continue to grow and his hate for Lucas who stood by her side and with his hands clasped tightly in hers rise too.His blood boiled so hard that he wanted to rip the insides of his body.*******Never in Lucas' life has he ever imagined that he would stand so helplessly beside a woman the way he was.Faye had taken his hand with her left hand while she held the microphone with her other hand.She clasped her hand tightly into his, occasionally swinging it up to represent power whenever she called out to him or

The sound of footsteps on the marble floor could be heard as Faye walked majestically into her classroom with a teacher following her behind.It was her period to have the class and Faye was walking to greet her students before she did.She noticed a new face being introduced to the class opposite her classroom.The way she had been introduced to her own class as well."Ohh, he is the new History teacher. He's a part timer" the lady behind her said, noticing that she had stopped after she noticed the man in the classroom." He's very handsome isn't he? He's a lawyer as well. Most of the teachers are already crushing on him even though he'd just be starting today" she giggled.Faye let out an expressionless face and bent her head to acknowledge what she had said before she began walking into the class.What was he doing there. Why was he there. Why was he after her. There was nothing about her new identity that could give her away, even if anything did, why would he still be after her

Was it fate. He thought."Lucas!!!" He heard his name and this made him snap out of his daydream.He looked up to his mother who sat a corner across him. She was surprised too, she wasn't the one that had called him.He heard his name being called again.It was oddly familiar, and there was only one of such person's that called his name like that.He dropped the spoon he was holding and walked out of the door with his mother following him closely behind."Genevieve, what are you doing here? " He asked surprisingly to his wife who stood a few centimeters away from the door of the small house." What am I doing here? I should be asking you such Lucas. What are you doing here? Have you forgotten that you signed you'd never visit this dilapidated house of your mother's? You can't go back on what you've agreed on. Imagine if the media got a photo of you in such a building. Do you think the people would want someone like you to be their governor?" She shot arrays of questions at him." Good

"You left me at a time when I was only holding on to you, Nathe. You were all I was holding on to but you left me hanging. I will never forgive you for that" Le Faye kept muttering to herself as she stepped into the doors of the mansion as the driver stopped the car at the garage.Walking into the house that was painted in an all white colour, she couldn't hold her mind from drifting to the day she was at the airport.She had followed Nathe quietly in his car till when they had arrived at the airport. She had wished he wasn't going to do anything rash."Nathe withdrew the case he filed against the governor. I heard that he was paid millions to do that" she had heard from one of his lawyer friends at the orphanage.She had prayed for it not to be true. She had quietly followed him hoping it wouldn't be true but as they stood at the entrance of the airport with him handing over some documents to her as well as university application files, she couldn't help but believe all she had heard

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
