Billionaire Ascendancy

Chapter 53

Jenny, who was so excited seeing the pictures being uploaded after emailing the website people and paying them for it, called Raven and rejoiced with her over the phone. She isn’t only doing this for Raven but for her own benefit because she Knew Once their plans work out, she will benefit from this a lot and take back what actually belongs to her. “check the internet Raven. Everything is ready and it’s currently trending Right now. Besides, you should check on her”. Jenny’s words echoed to her over the phone as she smiled continuously “Gosh this feels so good. I called her this morning and she only told me that she doesn’t understand what happened yesterday. It seems like she doesn’t remember anything at all”. Raven uttered as Jenny let out a deep sigh. She was so happy to hear that. “But I’m really worried about something. What if she remembered us and mentioned our name to him? Don’t you think that she will suspect us for having handed over what happened?” That were Raven’s main friends. She knew if this slack out and they later find out they’re the one behind it, they could spend the rest of their Life in jail.

Which is the reason why she wants to know the consequences behind what they just did. Finding her words hilarious, Jenny laughs over the phone thereby making Raven to be curious. “Relax Raven. You shouldn’t be scared or feel guilty over what happened. Ava will never find out we’re the ones behind it. She can’t even accuse you of being the mastermind of it.. she could only suspect you that’s all”. Jenny’s words calmed her down as she exhaled deeply and thanked her. The call later came to an end as Raven went through her Instagram page then found the post.

The post was actually uploaded By the man handler who had taken the pictures with her but his face wasn’t showing and under the post, the Man wrote ‘night out with my babe. I’m sure she looks sexy right”. That was the caption he wrote alongside the pictures before sending it and Raven found it perfect enough to destroy her relationship with Stefan.. and in order not to make her feel neglected or feels like they’re the one behind everything, she called her and luckily, she picked the call.

“Ava please where are you? What’s happening Ava. Why’s your pictures trending on the internet? Who was that man that posted those pictures? What happened babe please answer me”. She let out those words to her, hoping that it was polite enough and sounded so care to her ear. “I don’t know what happened, Raven. I don’t know who uploaded those pictures there, please believe me”.

Ava’s voice does sound like someone that’s about to cry and she enjoyed it. “I believe you Ava. Please relax! Take a deep breath! Don’t think about this too much so that you won’t fall into depression, trust me. Just ignore it and move on with your……!!! Right before she could finish up with her speech, the call came to an end as she burst into laughter. And muttered to herself…’ shamelessly girl’ so you understand how it feels when you decided to mock me by inviting me over for dinner only to surprise me with an invitation card from you and Stefan. She pouted out happily and jumped around her bed like someone who had won a lottery.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

And not forgetting about her work, she dressed up in her black suit then make-up herself a little before heading to the car. She guesses today’s work will be fun because everybody will be talking about the mighty Ava.

STEFAN POV

I was in my office, solving out some files when Lisa walked up to me with a serious face that kept me curious to know what happened. “What’s the problem Lisa? You look sad. I hope everything is alright?” I could see the surprised look on her face as I uttered those words to her. “haven’t you heard of the news?” She shrugged at me as I sighed.

What news could she be talking about? “Lisa, please be specific here. You’ve got me lost with words. “What news exactly?” At this moment I was scared and nervous as I hope it isn’t about my grandfather or anyone related to me. I just hope it isn’t a death base. “Your fiance, Ava William, has been trending on the internet for two hours now sir, are you really telling me that you have no idea.. look at the post. You need to see this”.

And in curiosity, I took the phone from her hands and looked at the post she seemed to be talking about. My eyes widened the moment I finished viewing the post and reading the capture but I wasn’t sure of the person. I’m sure the person isn’t AVA. It could be that Ava looks alike. I thought and gave her the phone back. “Two people usually have the same appearance, right?” I questioned as she nodded her head in agreement. “I think that’s it. I’m sure that person Ava looks alike”. I started to feel angry at Lisa for giving me fake news.

“Please, you need to believe this. It’s Ava Williams that’s in that picture and sadly, everybody is already talking about her”. I suddenly got convinced by her words but I found it hard to believe. I could see the sad look in Lisa’s eyes as she walked away.

Ohhhh Ava, if Those news are really True then how could she do Such thing? I decided to check my phone only to see almost ten missed calls from her. At this moment, I believe that the news was true and even without hearing from her yet, I know she was calling me because of the news. I also saw a missed call from her mother but didn’t bother calling her back as I dropped my phone down and concentrated on what I was doing but sadly I couldn’t focus properly. My attention was already divided by everything I had witnessed so far. I waited patiently until it was 4pm before deciding to go home and on my way out of the company, I heard the murmuring sound of their voices, talking about Ava who was sent to be my fiance and at this moment, I was really embarrassed. I thought that the news wasn’t going to affect me, not knowing that it would have a negative impact on me. I couldn’t take their words as I drifted back to them and gave them a strict warning.

“Did I just hear any of you mentioning my name or …. Ava own?” I questioned them as they all looked down immediately. No one dared to utter any words. “let’s this be the last time I will ever hear you talking about what isn’t your business again in this company and failures to abide by the rules will be sacked”. I shrugged at them as they all shuddered in fear. “we’re sorry sir.. please forgive us”. They apologized as I walked away. Not quite long, I got home and came down from the car as I sighted one of my security guards approaching me. “Good evening sir, welcome back”. He greeted me as I smiled at him.

“I’m sorry to inform you of this but a lady is currently in the house right now waiting for you. He claimed to be your fiancée whose name was ‘Ava William’. Sighed deeply as my security guard told me about her. “I’m really sorry that we let her in without your permission sir, I promise you that nothing like that will ever happen again since we have no choice than to let her in after making a scene”. And then he corrected himself as I was about to shout and scold him for making the mistake of Letting her in. “never let such a thing repeat itself”. And I so scold him, in order for him not to try Such thing again, no matter how close the person is to me he shouldn’t let them in without my permission.

I opened the door of My house only to find her sitting patiently in the parlor. Waiting for me. She seemed so shocked and startled the moment she stared her eyes at me. I didn’t talk to her as I decided to ignore her and go to my room but I was forced to halt my footsteps when she spoke. “I have been waiting for you hubby”. On hearing her words, I turned to look at her. I called one of my male servants to come and get my bag and shoe inside my Room Which he did as walk towards Ava.

“Waiting for me as how? What do you need me for? I bellowed at her with anger as she narrowed her gaze down. “I’m sorry if I made you angry, I just wanted to have a conversation with you concerning something”. At this moment, I just wish that I could give her a dirty slap over the face because the way she’s behaving right now is making me hate her.

“Are you aware that I was at work when you called? Was I supposed to leave what I was doing at that moment so that I could pick your call or what are you saying? I shrugged at her as she couldn’t say anything. She was speechless while looking at me. “I’m sorry!!”
