"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
It was the day of the School Party.A smell of anticipation lingered in the air. Lucas was in attendance, and so was his wife Genevieve who sat beside him. Maya did not sit with them, she sat at a corner of the hall alongside her classmates.The who and who's of Montenegro were all in attendance, the parents and other invited guests of honour.The hall was adorned with colourful decorations, twinkling lights ,a stage which set up at the centre of the hall and music which reverberated from the speakers from strategic sides of the hall. Lucas was at the forefront, and Genevieve sat beside him, they were in public, she wouldn't want to destroy the happy image she had created of her family in public.It was almost time for Le Faye to enter the stage and take the spotlight. That was the reason he had come, and he was sure as well, that had been the reason his wife Genevieve had come as well.Other people might have come for their children, but for him, she topped the reason he was in att
Lucas walked briskly, his eyes scanning the headers of each room he passed, searching for Faye to return her bracelet.He found it odd that he followed her in even though he could wait where he had been for her to return so he could hand her the jewelry he had picked up, or yet still hand it over to the management of the school she worked at.But a thought in him advised him otherwise and he couldn't reject the counsel.Walking further, he saw a door opened halfway from the arrays of doors that spawned through out the hallway.His heart clicked and he guessed it might be the one she had entered, forgetting to close up properly perhaps due to the fact that she just have felt scared being in only her.He walked up to the door and couldn't help but stare.Her back was in full view.She had removed the ballet gown she wore and had her bare back glaring at him, with only the host she wore on, and the sight of the black strapless bra she had on from the corner of her sides.He'd hourglass f
The sounds of glass cups clanking and plates clinking with cutleries together filled the air as the dinning area for occupied with parents. Some who drank, and some parents who sat apart eating from the buffet opposite.Faye walked in and she did not fail to steal attention with the dress she wore.Some parents had dressed exposing some parts of their body but somehow, the dress she wore made her steal all the attention from them, especially with her waist that looked snatched in the outfit."Miss Faye!!!! It's a pleasure finally meeting you! I enjoyed the Infinity Wine from your company and can't resist from taking it anytime any day. A very nice creation from you I must say" a man said to her while shaking her hands." Thank you so much. I appreciate your loyalty to my company" she replied walking unto the table he stood at." Care for some?" He asked her and brought the bottle of wine in his hand to pour some into the glass cup she held and brought closer to him."Thank you, get a
"How useless can you get Genevieve!!!!??" She heard and turned her head, shaking off the thoughts that had begun to consume her." We were in public for crying out loud!! Could you not control your husband and make him not get drunk?! What would the media say? What would be carried on the front pages of the newspapers tomorrow? You're so useless!!!!" Montenegro shot at her." Father I'm sorry. I was not aware that he was drinking, neither did I know that he'd get drunk that way and embarrass me and the family. I'm sorry father. I'd try my best to keep this from getting out"" You'd keep what? How do you intend to do that? The other parents who shot videos with their phones. What would you do to them? Meet them and threaten them to delete the videos? For crying out loud Genevieve, do better!!!! Did you not see the lady that danced at the stage? Did you not see how she captivated the crowd? Till now men are still talking about her and you? Nothing!! Useless!! Shameless!!!" He thundered
Le Faye watched from the window of her classroom as Lucas came to pick up Maya from the classroom.He had stopped coming for months now since after the incident that happened between them at the dressing room during the school's party. Instead, he sent his workers instead and some of them usually came to pick this daughter on his behalf.He had always been in the news and for the wrong reasons as well.It seemed like a never ending cycle. He had a bad reputation especially after his drinking saga but she had plans she wanted to use and turn the people back to him, a week before the election day, which was a week to come.She noticed how he avoided her eyes but she did not bother, instead, she found herself worrying for him. Had he not yet heard or seen the news. Perhaps he has, and perhaps that was the reason he had come to pick up his daughter by himself, to avoid her being stopped by interviewers who cared not about the mental health of people regardless of age.She compelled herse
The earring he held in his fingers could not leave his thoughts.They seemed body familiar. He had seen his wife Genevieve with one once. It was a wedding gift she had received from one of her friends. A limited edition. He had also seen Faye with the earrings too. So his thoughts were juggled. Which one of them owned the one pair of earring in his fingers, how was he going to find out who owned it. The owner must have something to do with the death of his mother.He drove to the club house. He had heard from his private investigator that she usually went there to play golf and games sometimes, so he went in, hoping to confront her.It took him a while before he was able to find her, she had been at the VIP section. She could afford it but she seemed not to be alone. She had a company, his brother in-law who could not resist gloating and talking about himself to the woman.She seemed cunning and he did not seem to see beneath through her facade. He wanted to avoid her, the way he had
The dressing room was an opposite of what it used to be.Unlike before when the clothes were all hanged in the diamond hangers with Genevieve's initials, they all laid on the ground, so we're some of her shoes which had been thrown on the floor while her belongings were being ransacked."Where could she have hidden it! Where could she have hidden it" Lucas tiredly lamented.He had been searching her belongings for a long while but had found nothing. Her own earrings were no where to be found and the pouch had been replaced with a different earring but the same colour with the other one she had lost.Something was amiss, he could tell but he could not bring himself to think the path his mind wanted to wander off to.He thought perhaps she had bought another but kept the earring somewhere else, but she was not one to do so.She always donated her designer materials she were not using again to charity houses and made the press come and talk about her and make her donation the front page
