Olivia narrowed her eyes at Damien who has been sneaking side glances at her every now and then, she felt that he had something to say but was hesitating.. "Uhh..do you have something to say?" Damien shook his head and turned his attention to Kelvin who left his seat to occupy his lap.. "Daddy wanted to tell you that you look very pretty" Olivia and Damien cleared their throat, this little boy of theirs really know how to leave them in an awkward position.. "Nice try Kelvin.. don't think I have forgotten what you just did.." Kelvin shrugged "I was only trying to protect you..she's mean" he said with a pout.. Damien was about to speak when the seat next to him was taken, his mum's smiley face came in view as her gaze fell on Kelvin and Olivia.. "Hello Mrs Sterling" Anita waved a little to Olivia with a smile before her gaze settled on Kelvin's face.. "I'm very glad that you both could make it today..Sandy and Cassie said they'll be here a bit late due to traffic"
Alexa held the box of tissue for Rihanna who was crying her eyes out and at the same time wiping off the white icing from her face.. "He just stood there and watched me- She hiccuped and continued wailing, Alexa could almost feel her best friend's plight, this night wasn't for her to be honest.. If she had known something like this would happen, she'd have convinced Rihanna from coming.. "Those little terror in kids form! I'll make sure I scold them so much" *** Long beard handed the glass of wine to his girlfriend Nathalie, she stared blankly at the glass of red wine.. "Haven't you had enough of expensive wine for one night?" She scolded.. "I want you to do me a little favor babe..help me pass this to that blonde" Nathalie's eyes trailed to the blonde who was speaking with Damien Sterling, she snapped her gaze back to him.. "Is she your new lover because she is a blonde?!" "What? no! it's part of the plan remember?" She took in a deep breath and grabbed he
Long beard crashed on the sofa after a punch was sent to his face by Damien, he sat up moving back on the sofa as the figure drew nearer to him... Damien grabbed the collar of his unbuttoned shirt and pulled him up glaring ice cold daggers at him, his pupils dilated at the thought of what this despicable soul was about to do to Olivia.. "How dare you lay a finger on her?!" he barked sending a kick to long beard's gut.. "Pl.. ea..se spare me..I haven't touched her yet.. the reporters- Damien heard the sounds of footsteps approaching the room, he pulled the latter by his collar and dragged him to bathroom after which he locked it .. His gaze fell on Olivia whose dress was a bit out of place, by the sounds and voices approaching, he knew that it was the reporters coming.. If they were to find him in the room with Olivia, they might get into a messy scandal..and without wasting any time.. He hovered over her and pulled the sheet covering them thoroughly, the door burst open
Alexa lay flat on her bed staring at the ceiling, she was doomed and she knew it, her brother would skin her alive if he found out that she was the reason behind this disaster.. Their plan went from bad to worse, none of them could even step outside without being surrounded by the media in a minute.. "This is really bad Alexa..Long beard is nowhere to be found and Damien won't stop until he finds out everything" Rihanna murmured pacing around, visible sweat could be seen on her forehead, things were already so bad and the possible solution to the problem the Sterling's were facing is for Damien to come clean in public about the relationship he shares with Olivia.. "He might even tell everyone the truth" She added with a groan.. Alexa sat up and stared lazily at Rihanna's worried frame, she couldn't help but pin this whole disaster on the latter.. "This is all your fault Rihanna.." Rihanna stopped on her tracks and turned swiftly to Alexa with a surprised expression on h
Sandy pulled her phone away from her ear a little when she heard the door bell ring, she looked around the room hoping to spot Bianca anywhere.. "Bianca- "I'm on it!" Bianca declared walking to the door, she pulled it open only for Olivia to brush past her and head straight to the kitchen.. She opened the refrigerator and took out a bottle of water.. "Someone seems to be in a bad mood" Bianca giggled softly, her brows furrowed slightly wondering where Kelvin was since he didn't come in after her... She turned to Olivia who was drinking water from the plastic bottle like someone who had been thirsty for a whole week.. "Yeah.. she just got back.. I'll call you later, bye" Sandy placed her phone away, she arched a brow at the annoyed expression on her daughter's face, maybe things didn't go exactly as planned.. "Where is Kelvin?" She asked looking around for the kid.. Olivia tossed the empty recyclable bottle into the bin, she faced the two who were expecting answers f
Anita was left speechless as Alexa's words replayed over and over again in her mind, Rihanna and long beard weren't spared from the shock either.. "What?" She found it hard to believe, given her daughter's high taste and perfection in everything, she couldn't digest the fact that she'd be entangled with a guy who looked just like a thug.. Long beard avoided the older woman's piercing and scrutinizing gaze, he was doomed and he knew it! This brat only dug his grave even deeper, coming here was infact the worst idea he has ever had.. "Yes mum.. this is Ethan.. my boyfriend" Alexa confirmed again through clenched teeth, this was the best way to quench her mum's lurking mind. "Oh..why does he look like he has been starved?..I know everyone has choices but I think Asher is way better than- "Mum! he's right here.. you can't keep saying mean things about him in his presence" Anita forced a smile at the young man, he emitted a dangerous aura and by the look of things, he seem
Aldrin turned around to stare at the two ladies standing in front of him, he turned to Alexa with an arched brow, truly something weird has been going on with her lately.. He hasn't received debit alerts from her numerous shopping recently.. Alexa scowled inwardly, sure enough her mum was successful in putting those thoughts into her dad's head, because he was staring intently at her seeking explanations.. "Come on dad..this is urgent please" she pleaded with a pout, one she knew her dad couldn't resist.. "Honey..we need to make sure you aren't short of money..that can't be possible right? a large sum which could last you an entire year was deposited in there as your birthday gift.." Alexa's face fell, she threw her head back with a sigh, maybe it was time she put her ego aside and beg Damien once more like she meant it.. "Okay.. your point?" Anita gasped softly "I told you we couldn't trust her with that amount! when next we're giving you a card, there'll be a monthly
Olivia's heart thumped wildly as she stared at the box containing a diamond ring, she pulled her hands off the table clenching it on her laps.. "No..not this way- Damien noticed her reaction to the ring, he felt that she was perhaps scared or worse, she didn't want anything to do with him.. "Not this way..I don't want a relationship out of pity...I don't - She grabbed her glass once more and drank the wine in one go, she reached for the bottle and filled in her empty glass.. Damien held her hand back before she raised the glass to her lips.. "What are you doing?" "You keep promises right? and you never break them" She inquired for him to give a stiff nod.. "Then don't stop me" she uttered meaningfully before raising the glass once more to her lips.. Damien sighed deeply as he watched her gulping down wine like it was just water.. Few minutes later.... He stared at her figure resting back on the plush seat, mumbling some words incoherent words to herself.. He c
