Chapter 80 Lorraine and Faye hadn’t walked a further distance when they collided with Richard and Jeffrey. “Hey you two, was wondering if you two were gonna show until I see you here,” Jeffrey who was saying pointed at Lorraine, “Standing right next to the guy that turns out to be the Dragon General.” He ended his statement with a chuckle. “How are you Jeffrey?” Lorraine asked, putting up a nice smile. “Mentally not okay just looking at you. Lorraine have you checked the mirror, damn I wish I’m Avon right now, the guy who owns you. So fucking beautiful.” Jeffrey commended Lorraine’s appearance in his own way. Richard just stood there, resting his palm over his mouth starting from the nose part with the golden rings laid on his index and pinky finger in display. His eyes was lowered, staring at Lorraine as if she’s the only thing he can look at the moment. His eyes raked her over, devouring her enthralling appearance as she conversed freely with Jeffrey. ‘Just wait, wait my dea
Chapter 81Faye left their midst in search of her father, she has something to collect and say to him, it’s equally important as urgently. She held tightly to her golden purse as she matched through the crowds while consciously sipping from the liquid spilled inside the glassy cup held firmly in her palm. Ignorance of her path, her head thrown back drowning the little content left in the cup while trailing the path. Her body collided with an individual that had her hold on her purse severing as the beautiful lady bag fell to the ground on her feet. She knew she was in the wrong. It was her feet because she bumped at his backside. “Sorry, I’m so sorry.” Faye apologized as she bent down retrieving her purse. Straightening her spine, the person she bumped into already turned his back around to show his face, locking his contact with Faye and both getting lost in each appearance’s. Faye stared with a wild hidden and silent amusement at the handsomely dressed man in golden tuxedo, hi
Chapter 82 Kory roamed through the crowds, keeping her head high and vigilant of her surroundings. Simultaneously glancing around and on the phone between her palm. She went to a corner, releasing a sigh as she grabbed a cup filled with red wine from a tray, she leaned on the wall slowly sipping out of the cup as he divert her attention totally to her phone. She swiped the screen open as she tapped on the messages. Clicking on an unknown number, she composed a text, that reads, “I haven’t seen you. Are you still coming? Or are you here already? I’m not seeing you anywhere.” Then she hit the sent button, sipping from her cup as she readily awaits a response. The sound of her phone chiming had her checking her notification in a hurried haste, disappointed by whom she got the message from. It wasn’t from who she sent a text to earlier and rather from someone entirely different. She tapped on the text to read what she send. “I’m now at the party, I don’t have an invitation so
Chapter 83Lorraine found herself stuck in a deep conversation with Jeffrey. Although he seems to be a vibe, a real vibe to Lorraine but she’s not feeling the conversation again. “Really?” Her head tilted in awe, keeping up the facade of her interest in what he’s saying. “Yes. I was like what the fuck. How can he be like that? This is my fucking girlfriend we’re talking about. He can just do that, this is actually a funny experience I’m telling you.” Jeffrey retorted, breaking out into a laugh that Lorraine joined even when her system wasn’t constricting to produce the explosive mirth vocalized sound. Richard already left them which makes this more difficult for Lorraine to back out. It seems to her Jeffrey was enjoying her company, but she wasn’t enjoying his and wish to explore the party before they return home. But here is she since they’ve arrived, stuck with him and listening to all of his dry stories while pretending it’s actually good. She sent Faye a text to come get her,
Chapter 84Frank Wilson wasn’t expecting to see Lorraine where Kory had sent to him that she would be. He expected her to be alone. And when he saw her pushing somebody out, he has no idea the lady she’s pushing out is well informed about him and knows well who he is. “Lorraine how are you too? This is such a nice celebration party, I commend whoever was behind the setting.” Frank brought up, trying to change the topic and end the awkward staring competition. “How did you know Kory?” Lorraine initiated with a suspicious look focused on him.“Who is Kory? Which Kory? What Kory?” Frank replied, playing dumb as he looked around for Kory.“I heard you call her name Sir Frank. You said ‘Hey Kory’. It was pretty loud and clear to everyone of us here.” Lorraine spoke out, her head turned facing Kory. “Or would you deny he didn’t call you?” She asked her, already sniffing the fishiness going on.“Wait, is her name also Kory? Oh gosh…” Frank bursted our into a laughter. “You must be mista
Chapter 85“Yeah yeah weird lovers, I’m still here so please limit your doings. The least I want is filling that closet with my puke.” The lady who occupied the room with Kory and Frank spoke out, disgust expressed widely on her face.“Shut it Daphne, what the fuck are you still doing here?” Kory retorted in her annoyed voice. “Yeah I probably should have left with this.” She raised her hand that held a small nylon containing a whitish powdery substance, then wiggled it for awhile. “And I wonder how you would have escaped from Lorraine’s questioning if my presence didn’t help his lie.” Daphne added with a scoff and an eye roll. “Oh yes.” Kory pulled out of Frank’s hold hearing what she said and seeing the substance she still has with her. “What’s that for baby?” Frank asked, staring at the substance with curiosity. “Just a little something to deal with the second obstacle for messing with me. Could you believe the bitch fought with me this morning, and did some work on my face tha
Chapter 86Faye couldn’t believe what she’s seeing. Her very own father and her two brothers were about to steal from Charlotte. What got into them? What’s happening to them? Why would they try to do something like that? “What’s going on here?” She finally asked as she stepped in further into the room, her gaze moving from Oscar to Royce and from him to Vance.They stood there, stiff and paled as if they just saw a ghost, unable to compose a suitable response to Faye’s question.“What did I caught you both doing trying to steal from Charlotte?” Faye repeated, detailing on her question as she stood staring with disappointment at the three brothers. Hearing her misinterpreted info on the scene, a sense of relief washed through them as the tensed look on their faces diminished. “We weren’t stealing Faye, we were just returning this money. She actually asked us to bring it back here.” Royce said, standing straight after he had given the money to Oscar. “Are you sure? Because I saw he
Chapter 87Lorraine stared at his path, walking him sashay his way out of her presence while wondering the meaning behind his last sentence.That it’s his job to make sure I’m always happy. Lorraine remembered the line from his statement, battling with it in her mind. What could her uncle mean by saying that to her. “Lorraine!” The calling of a female voice snapped her troubled expression back to reality as she turned out to see who it was.“Mom.” She curved a smile the more her figure approaches her.“How are you doing my darling?” She asked the moment she got to her, running her hand over Lorraine’s silky hair. “I’m fine and I hope you are also.” Lorraine answered, putting upon her lips a genuine happy smile that masked her troubled face sand mind. Her uncle just threatened her never to enjoy her happiness, and Richard threatening he would still have her. That’s enough to keep her mind splitted. “Keep enjoying the party. I will talk to you later, I need to go ease myself.” She
