“It's okay. At least there is someone who is addicted to getting a lot of money like I am! That proves that Rhiannon and I will make good friends,” Anabelle said causing her family to smile.“Yes, they respect her so much and to them, she is their young miss and they opt to protect her. You know, before Rhiannon knew all these, I had some of my men follow her around for protection but after it was known, I was forced to retrieve my men as those people sent bodyguards to her. Dozens. If you see how our mansion is always surrounded by guards all anywhere she goes, you might even think she is either a president or a mafia queen,” Octavius said while chuckling but his face turned serious afterward.“Do you know where they come from?” Antonio asked with a frown.“I don’t know as I even got my men in our of the security agencies in here but I choose from the grandmasters in the martial arts but hers are way more powerful than mine. Although I don’t know which company they are from, I know t
The following day, Rhiannon woke up and went to the hotel’s kitchen after asking a staff where it was located.As she went, she surveyed the area to see whether it was decorated as she had instructed. She was quite pleased to see that everything was just as she had said.The hotel was decorated with the same colors as the gown and suit she had made for her parents.“Young miss,” a man who seemed to be in his fifties called her as he stood at a distance from Rhiannon behind.Rhiannon turned around with a frown as she knew that she was the only one around and it had to be her who had been called.Seeing the face of the man, Rhiannon nodded her head as she recognized the man as the hotel manager, Mr Fred.“Mr Fed,” she called out.“Young miss. I was informed that you slept here yesterday. Hope you had a nice sleep,” Fred said in a serious tone making Rhiannon stare at him for a while as he looked like a professional butler and not a hotel manager."Yes. It was quite peaceful although it
“Don’t call me young miss when talking to him,” Rhiannon said in a hurry as she didn’t want the Rodrigues to know her relationship with Dragons Organization at the moment.Fred nodded his head agreeing to her words as he understood why she was doing that.“Okay…”“Just as he wanted to say more, they heard a ‘hello’ coming from the phone as Rhiannon had placed it on speaker.Even before Fred got a chance to reply to Octavius, Rhiannon hung up the call causing Fred to give her a ‘what was that’ look. As he inwardly thought that Rhiannon missed her husband and wanted to hear his voice just for her to be satisfied.If Rhiannon found out what he was thinking, she would have been so furious.“As a manager, I want to believe that you have my parents-in-law's contacts, right?” Rhiannon asked him.Immediately after Octavius answered the call, she started panicking about being misunderstood and for Octavius to think that she was cheating on him thus she hung the call when she remembered Fred’s
“Finally, you are all awake,” Antonio said when he saw his son and daughter coming downstairs.“Morning to you too Dad,” they both said causing him to roll his eyes while Amanda smiled when she saw that.“You told Rhiannon to arrange for the party and everything but you never sent her the guest list?” he asked in a serious tone causing Anabelle to cuss as she was the one with it and didn’t even send it to Octavius.“Dad, I am sorry. It's all my fault. Octavius, can you please give me her number and I will send it to her?” Anabelle asked but Antonio shook his head.“It is not entirely your fault. The person who wanted her to do that work should have sent it to her. Also, there is no need for you to send it to her as I already have it,” he said making everyone look at him.“Where did she get your number?” Amanda asked as she was puzzled.“Bro, did you give her dad’s number?” Anabelle asked causing Octavius to shake his head indicating he didn’t.They all looked at each other, and a frow
“Won’t that be a good thing for us? We will be able to help her fast take down her enemies with that organization’s help,” Antonio said making everyone narrow their eyes at him not believing him.“Although they aren’t that strong like the enemies, they can help with their connections in the government and also in business. You said that Rhiannon said that the only way for her to defeat the enemy is by being at the top both domestically and internationally. With their help, don’t you think that it would be easy for her to achieve that goal? Also, your maternal family might agree if they find out that she has a connection in that organization,” Antonio said making all of them remain silent.“Your mother and I always said that we will be Celestine’s first child godparents while Grace will be her last born child’s godmother but since she only got one, we are both her godparents and as her godfather, I have to keep the promise of protecting her that Celestine had asked me before leaving,”
“What do you mean that the king has been invited?” Rhiannon asked with a frown as she couldn’t understand what was really going on.“Yes, he is on the list,” Fred said causing Rhiannon’s frown to deepen.“The king cannot make it that’s for sure as he lives a thousand kilometers from here. Telling him to come depart today so that he can make it to the party will seem as if we do not understand,” Rhiannon said as she massaged her temple.If she was asked, she would not send the card to the royal palace as it would sound disrespectful to the royal family inviting them a day before the party. That family wasn’t like the families in the capital that needed to show respect to the Rodrigues and Andersons and had to come.On the other side, she knew that she didn’t have a say in all these as although she was in charge of everything, she didn’t have the right to determine whom she should send the invitation and whom not to.“If we send the card right now, it will only arrive two days later. By
“All guests have confirmed that they will come,” Rhiannon told her family as they ate lunch together.“We have not gotten a chance to look at how the hotel has been decorated,” Amanda said as she was curious but Rhiannon just smiled at her.“You should get enough rest today as you will be busy tomorrow. We don’t want you to be tired even before your party arrives,” Rhiannon said making everyone at the table chuckle.“Dad, Mom, I changed the event time, it will be starting at two in the afternoon,” Rhiannon informed them causing them to frown.“Why so early?” Antonio asked as he couldn’t understand what was going on.“The vice president also confirmed that he will be present, Country A attorney general has also said that he will be present and the general commander of our country, Country A and Y have confirmed too,” she said shocking everyone.“What!” They all shouted.“We didn’t invite them,” Amanda said in a panic as even if her family were the richest, they had to show respect to t
“Hello, Rhiannon talking, who am I talking to?” she asked with a frown.“Mrs Rhiannon Rodrigues you have guts to hang up on me! No one has ever done that to me! You are the first one!” a deep cold angry voice said from the other side shocking Rhiannon that she almost dropped her phone.“I am sorry second prince. I didn’t have your number thus I don’t know whom was calling. Please forgive me, Your Highness,” Rhiannon said stunning everyone.Antonio and Amanda looked at each other and there was some bit of panic in their eyes but at the same time, they felt troubled.At that moment, Amanda remembered that she had added the king to her guest list and cussed inwardly while she hoped that the man wouldn’t come.“It's okay,” the prince said softly after hearing her apology and calming down.“Thank you for forgiving me my prince,” Rhiannon said but inwardly, she was feeling tired of all the formalities. Maybe it was because she didn’t need to call anyone like that as she had never met someon
