LOVE & REVENGE - CHAPTER 7&8
“Welcome to my home” Fiona beamed as they arrived at her house.
“Wow, its so big and beautiful. Just like you. This is paradise” Hailey said looking around
“Can someone show me my room already? I’m tired. You both have been chatting no ng stop. Don’t you ever get tired of gossiping? Jayden asked looking pissed and the two ladies stopped to look at him then burst into laughter.
“Am I a joke to you? Jay asked as he dropped the bag on the floor and placed his hands on his waist.
“Look, we are both older than you. I know you are hungry but Learn some manners. K.I.D” Hailey said and touched his head
“I’m eighteen for crying out loud. I’m not a kid. Stop calling me that. And next time don’t touch my head. Its annoying. It took me time to style my hair so don’t do that next time. Miss Fiona can you take me to my room please” He turned his attention to Fiona who was looking at them with a smile.
“Oh! Sure. Come with me” Fiona said heading upstairs while Jay followed behind but not after sticking out his tongue at Hailey.
“Are you both leaving me here? Hailey asked dragging her bags behind her.
“Wow! The room is so big and beautiful. I love it already” Jay gushed as they arrived at his room
“I’m glad you love it. Freshen up and come downstairs let’s eat” Fiona said
“You are the best miss Fiona. I love you” he said with a wink and Hailey happened to step in at that moment.
“eeewww, I wanna throw up. Was that a win? Its ugly. Don’t do it next time. Besides why would you wink at Fiona or do you have a thing for older women? … I knew it!! Don’t date your teachers when you get to school tho. A friendly advice” Hailey said and walked out before any of them could respond.
“That’s why you will never have a boyfriend. You talk too much” Jay shouted after her with a frown and Fiona smiled
“Why are you so cute? Fiona said as she touched his cheeks and Jay smiled shyly.
“I can’t wait to get to school and have the girls drooling” he said smiling proudly
“With your ugly face? You look like a duck” Hailey said from the doorway.
“Why are you always acting like a ghost. Behave normal for once. I pity your future boyfriend”
“Can we head downstairs now? I’m famished” Fiona said in order to prevent them from arguing further.
“Let me freshen up. I’ll be with you shortly sweet Miss Fiona” Jay said a flashed Fiona a sweet smile which she returned
“tch, between me and Jay who is your friend? Hailey questioned Fiona
“You are too old to get jealous of me”
“Wh@??ver. Let me go and freshen up and join you for lunch”
Fiona simply shook her head and went downstairs to set the table for lunch.
“Wow! Miss Fiona, you made this food right?
“Yes I did”
“I hope someone will learn from you” Jayden said and Hailey shot him a glare.
Suddenly her phone chimed and she checked her message with a frown.
“I’ll be back” Hailey said and stood up before rushing upstairs to her room
📞Why are you calling me? She said over the phone
📞 You rushed out of the airport because you didn’t want me to see you. How dumb”
📞 You saw me?
📞 Of cos I did. And I know you left with Fiona so you are obviously staying with her”
📞 What do you want this time?
📞 Good question.
📞 Why can’t you just let me be? I did what you asked of me already. So why can’t you just let me go?
📞 Don’t be faster than your shadow, baby girl. We will meet sooner than you think”
“Psychopath” Hailey muttered as the person hung up.
She turned immediately and flinched when saw Jay at the door.
“Why appearing like a ghost?
“Why are you sneaking around with your phone? Is there anything you want to say to me?
“Nothing. Can you leave now?
‘I just hope you are not doing something bad’ Jay thought and turned to leave
“That was close” Hailey muttered and followed Jay behind.
“What kept you in there for so long? Fiona asked Hailey when she resumed eating
“Um mm, its nothing. I just went to the restroom” she muttered and Jay looked at her before focusing back on his phone.
🎀ALEX RESIDENCE🎀
📞Dad why didn’t you fulfil your promise? Gemini said over the phone
📞 I’m busy Gem, that’s why. Daddy is sorry. Will you forgive me?
📞Wh@??ver. Not like I can stay angry with you for long.
📞 That’s my baby.
📞Baby? What’s that? Eeww. I’m a big boy now. I’m turning 8 Next month.
📞 You are still my baby.
📞 Don’t call me that. Get a wife dude.
Alexander just laughed over the phone and Gemini hung up with a cute smile.
“Young master, your food is ready. Are you coming downstairs or should I bring it here? Cora asked.
Cora is Gemini’s personal maid and they are so close unlike the other maids.
“Miss Cora, do you like my room that much or do you like me? Which one? You are always in my room and now you want to bring my food to my room and I know you have to watch me eat” Gemini said with a grin showing off his cute dimples.
“None of the above. I’m just doing my job”
“That’s by the way. I heard dad will be getting a new maid to replace you. Why?
“I have to attend to at home. That’s why but I will be back before you know it”
“Is it that important?
“Yes. It is very important”
“more than me?
“Ummmmm……”
“You cant even answer that. I want to be alone”
Cora stood up and left quietly. She didn’twant to argue with Gemini because she will never win.
Getting into an argument with Gemini is a bad idea because he is going to frustrate you.
🎀FIONA’S HOME🎀
‘I need to start making my plans and I have to start with his son. Alex, you will cry soon. Just wait and watch’ Fiona thought while scrolling through the pictures in her phone. She came across a picture she took with Alex and her heart skipped hundreds of beats. She could swear she heard the beats.
‘Stupid heart’ she hissed and tossed her phone on the bed
‘Tomorrow is going to be a long day. How will I distract this doctor from asking about my I.D or should I just get a fake I.D? This plan should not fail please. Because my head is empty right now’ her mind suddenly went to Hailey and she waved it off.
‘if there is something wrong, she will tell me when she wants to. I won’t pressure her’
🎀SMITH’S COSMETICS COMPANY 🎀
Alex walked into the company with cold but handsome face as usual. The staff were all bowing in respect and he kept nodding till he entered the elevator which took him to his office.
“Good morning sir” Nathan greeted Alex with a big smile and Alex looked at him with surprise written all over his face.
“When did you get back? You didn’t even tell me and its past 4pm” Alex asked with a smile too
“I wanted to surprise you, boss. Where you expecting someone else? Or are you falling for Susan that you are already missing her?
“Nathan?
“Sir”
“Get out”
“Sir?
“You are not deaf or you want to be fired?
“Oh! I can’t even count how many times you have said that in the past 6 months. Anyways how is the Junior boss doing?
“He is just there”
“I can’t wait to see him. Did you even miss me at all?
“Why should I? Am I your girlfriend? You should have stayed in London and never return”
“I know you mean the opposite. Let’s see what you have to do today. You have a meeting with Mr. Tony by 5pm. That’s all”
“Alright. You are coming with me” Alex stood and started walking out of his office and Nathan ran after him.
“Why? I just got back. Can’t I rest for today?
“Didn’t you think about that before showing your ugly face here”
Nathan quickly brought out his phone and looked at his face.
“Boss did you just call me ugly? I’m hurt” he faked a cry
“Even a blind person knows you are ugly”
“I know you mean the opposite. I have a handsome face that gets girls staring when they see me” Nathan said proudly and Alex burst into laughter
“Who is deceiving you?
“Sir are you leaving already? Susan appeared in the hallway
“No. I’m heading somewhere important and won’t be back to the office. Go home when you are done with work”
“Is there anything you would like me to do for you sir?
“Hey! Didn’t you see me here? Or is your brain malfunctioning? Nathan asked hotly
“I wasn’t talking to you. Monkey” Susan said and walked away while Alex smiled
“Sorry bro. Your crush just called you a monkey. I should have recorded this”
“Boss, its not even funny”
“That’s by the way. Put up a notice on my page I need a new maid for Gemini”
“What about Cora? Did she resign?
“She said she has something to attend to so I need a temporary replacement”
“Okay sir”
🎀UNKNOWN🎀
“When are you going to carry out your assignment? Do you want your mother to die? I can just make your brother disappear and you won’t get to see him at all. I know how much you want to see him and know what he looks like”
“Sir, please don’t hurt my mother” she cried
“Its up to you. I give you till next week to carry out your assignment and return here”
“Okay sir” she replied and the man on the other end hung up
“What do I do? She sat on the floor crying her eyes out.
