Mummy, Daddy is on his knees

Anita’s brows drew together in anger and impatience as she stared at the two guards who were blocking her path..Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

She clutched her red purse tightly before taking a swerve to the left and to her amazement her path was blocked again..

“What is the meaning of this?!” she barked impatiently glaring cold chilly daggers at the two who were scared to look her in the eyes..

“I’m sorry ma’am.. old master has ordered us to restrict your movement, you’re not allowed to leave without his permission”

Anita was perplexed, so this was her father in-law’s new found way to keep her under his command..

The guards bowed before her which left her confused for a while until she heard a grunt behind her..

She swiftly turned to face whoever was behind her, and it was just who she wanted to see, his lips pulled up into a devilish grin as he dismissed the two guards..

“I see you’re on your way out so early to cause more chaos” Bernard sneered..

“You have no right whatsoever to stop my movements!”

Aldrin paused on the lady staircase trying to figure out what his wife and father were arguing about..

“I did! what are you going to do about it?! you’re not leaving this environ until Damien and Rihanna finally tie the knots!”

Anita was taken aback, where they still on this? wasn’t Damien’s answer clear enough?

“Really? are you still desperately trying to force this burden on Damien’s shoulders?”

Aldrin moved quickly to them, once he was close enough, he pulled his wife to himself and sent a glare to his father whose attention was now fixated on him..

“I agree to Anita’s words this time.. Damien already made his choice and you can’t force anything down on him”

Damien pulled off his black suit jacket and tossed it on the bed next to her, he stared down at the supposed breakfast brought for her which he knocked down from the table accidentally..

He raised his head from the food on the floor to Olivia who was tucked in on the bed, she sent him a deadly stare which made him uncomfortable..

“That was my breakfast!”

He rolled his eyes at her outburst, he failed to understand how she had the energy to yell when she was burning really hot..

Her nose was really red and her eyes looked heavy and lazy..

“You look pathetic right now, no one is in this apartment except the both of us… so I’d advice you speak to me nicely or else you’ll have to do everything by yourself!”

Olivia sneered, nice her foot! no one asked for his presence in the first place.

She opened her mouth to speak but it was interrupted by a sneeze..

“Oh goodness! I can’t feel my nose anymore..”

Damien moved away from the spilled food to avoid stepping on it..

“I’ll go get something”

Alexa stepped out of her room and at the same time the door opposite her room opened to reveal Becky who was all smiles..

“Good morning Alexa.. hope you had a beautiful night?”

Alexa snorted in disdain, great! just what she needed for her morning to be ruined..

“There’s nothing good about this morning since you’re the first person to appear before me! how unlucky! fatty!”

Becky corked a brow, she caught hold of Alexa’s arm who was about to walk away from her..

Alexa retracted her hand harshly from Becky’s hold, she turned sharply to her ready to lash out when she heard the next words that came from Becky..

“I don’t like you much either.. stop thinking so highly of yourself Alexa, being proud and arrogant won’t lead you anywhere!”

“Oh! even the fatty speaks too! after spending six years outside the country you definitely grew strong guts to be able to talk to me in that way!”

Becky smirked “I don’t think it’s wise of you to address me as fatty anymore.. skinny!”

Alexa’s eyes rounded, did this once extra fleshed human just address her as skinny?

“Skinny?! have you lost it?! my figures are what most ladies envy!”

Becky shrugged and walked past her “I think that’s another way to pacify yourself sis!”

Alexa’s knuckled tightened, just who does she think she was to insult her in that manner, this was one of the exact reason she had always hated Becky!

Rihanna pulled her phone away from her ear with a slight crease on her face, she had just been to Damien’s office but he hadn’t reported yet..

Alexa affirmed a while ago that he already left for the office, which made her wonder where exactly he was currently..

“Honey you look stressed out.. what’s the matter?”

Rihanna turned to her mum who just walked in with a pout on her lips..

“Just how exactly am I going to blackmail Damien emotionally if he is nowhere to be found? I tried calling him but he didn’t pick up.. I guess he’s still avoiding me”

Tracy’s gaze relaxed a bit, she pulled Rihanna into her arms stroking her hair..

“Baby.. I thought I told you to leave this all to me.. I’ll handle everything, elder Sterling will be turning a year older this weekend, and he’s planning to throw a grand party..”

Rihanna pulled away to stare at her mum, so? what has this birthday party gotten to do with her relationship with Damien?

“So?”

Tracy held her daughter’s two hands moving in circles with her..

“So.. what I’m saying is that.. you should get prepared, dress to the nine.. and leave the rest for your mum to handle”

Rihanna sighed deeply, she didn’t care whatever it was her mum needed to do as far as Damien will eventually become her’s then there’s nothing she wouldn’t do..

And speaking of Damien where exactly was he?…

***

Olivia’s lazy eyes opened when she felt a gentle tap on her cheek..

She took in a deep breath, she must have fallen asleep when he had left her room earlier, a strong mouth watering aroma reached her sour nose..

“Come on have your breakfast”

Her eyes widened, didn’t he knock down her tray a while ago? wait! Did Damien Sterling make breakfast for her? was it even edible? or another word for poison?..

“Oh jeez! poison!” She blurted out weakly which drew a line of crease on Damien’s forehead..

“What? did you say something?”

Olivia shook her head in denial, she watched him take a seat next to her on the bed as he supported her to sit up..

He positioned the pillows behind her carefully making Olivia’s brows knot, she had a strange feeling within her..

Why was he being nice all of a sudden? what if he had actually poisoned the food? that way he would be the rightful parent to Kelvin..

And what will happen to her ghost? it will be sad for eternity, she was suddenly pulled out of her thoughts when she felt and tasted a warm tasty liquid in her slightly parted lips..

She pinned her gaze on him to see the side of his lips pull up into a smirk..

“You can’t seem to take your eyes off of me.. are you that interested in me?”

She choked, hard!… Damien reached for the glass of water on the tray and held it to her lips..

“By the way I added a little teeny weeny pinch of poison in the soup” He nonchalantly commented with a serious expression on his face…

Olivia’s eyes rounded before a single word slipped out of her lips.. “What?!”
