Get me a new receptionist, miss vien zuber is fired.. "
"what…please sir I'm sorry … I was supposed to call mr smith to verify and I should have checked for her reservations… I'm sorry sir, it won't happen again …miss zuber said kneeling and crying …. "
Kelvin heard the altercation from the landline and rushed to Oliver's office.. getting there, he saw Oliver smoking and staring at miss zuber with his red eyes, and he knew Oliver is running out of patience…
"please miss vien zuber, can you take your leave before it's too late…kelvin said…
"please help me plead with mr Queen, I'm truly sorry it won't happen again… mr zuber said….
As she was about going …
"Go downstairs and make sure miss sulievan disappear from this company's premises…Oliver said …. "
"Thank you sir, I will do just that ….miss zuber said…"
getting downstairs….
She walked up to miss Kendra sulievan and said to her,
"please ma'am , you don't have any reservations, so please go and come back when you have one…
"are you silly? Do you know who I am? I'm mr Queen's fiancé, I'm engaged to mr Queen, and I can tell him to fire you….. so don't even try any shit here… Kendra said shouting
which brought a lot of people out …. "
…What a lunatic beauty without brain… miss zuber thought…
"please ma'am… don't force me to call the security on you…. I don't want to create a scene here… mr Queen don't even wants to see you… he doesn't even give a damn about you… an ordinary publisher from a small company even used his private elevator today and was escorted by his personal assistant, has he ever given you the permission to do that or even looked at your face… ??
Kendra's heart sank immediately she heard that ,her face was drained and she aged ten times immediately …
"what do you mean by a mere publisher… who is she..Kendra asked shamefully…".
"Please leave while I'm still polite … miss Zuber said … "
Kendra looked at the crowd she has gathered because of her stupidity and said …
"I will get back at you guys…. and left…"
getting into her car, her driver saw her face from the rear view and asked… "ma'am what is the problem… "
"just take away my pains first, it's becoming too unbearable….Kendra said.. "
"the driver looked at her with longing and love … stretched his hands and touched her cheeks… then just like the wind, the pain vanished ….
"She breathed and looked at him … thank you .. Kendra said to him..
"so what happened this time ….the driver asked …
"I want you to help me look into the publisher that came to see Oliver today…" Kendra said…"
"you know I can't look into the affairs of The king in his territory…the driver said… "
"don't look inside, just from the outside…Kendra said…
"That will do. He said….
He concentrated his powers, but he can only see a vague shadow….
"Ehmm.. Kendra…sorry miss Sullivan …I'm sorry it's like something is blocking me out… the driver said to Kendra… "
"is he already protecting her… .. Kendra said fuming… "
"and they are two shadows… not just one person … the driver told her.."
"who are they …??kendra wandered as they left the Queens consolidate premises ...
thankfully the pictures from earlier today was brought down before Kendra could see it, and was automatically deleted from every cell phone it was saved… not even Dinah knew her pictures circulated today…. Her best friend Adah who had been calling was surprised and couldn't back up her words with any evidence while telling Dinah about the pictures on call…. Dinah who was wandering what could have happened after the call was brought back to reality by her brother's shout from his room … she rushed to his room to find him wailing …
"Anthony what is wrong with you? Are you hurt?? Dinah asked concerned…
"Who misplaced the stuffs in my room….Anthony asked… "
"misplaced nope, arranged yes I did Dinah answered…"
"but I never asked you to help me out with my room, I can take care of myself…Anthony said …
Dinah rolled her eyes and said…. "You are welcome" and left to her room…"
"oh jeez… stop getting on my affairs without my permission…. Anthony shouted from his room…" he looked around the room, smiled … and said to himself, she really did a very nice job here… and entered the bathroom…
it was weekend already.
Mrs Wellington was discharged and Dinah was there to help her pack up and since the bills were taken Care of by the hospital, there was no need for discharge procedures, they called a cab and left for their apartment.
After settling her mom, Dinah went inside the kitchen to get a plate of porridge soup for her, cuz it's suitable for the cool evening weather … it's already the beginning of winter and soon snow will start falling which will also mark Dinah's 20th birthday on Christmas Eve, so everywhere is cool and for her mom whose immune is not strong needs to be kept warm… after making the plate of soup for her mom, she went inside her room.
A call came in as she was about opening her laptop, "
"hey Adah ….Dinah said excited…"
"hey baby girl are u free for a cup of drink …. Adah replied …" as Dinah was about saying a yes… a message popped up on her WhatsApp that was linked to her laptop saying…
"seems you really want to spend a night in my house, since you have not started your part time job ..
Part time job ? she thought…
"hey are u there.. Adah shouted from the phone…
" jeez Adah, please I'm busy for today, will definitely buy you lunch next time, I have to go… Dinah replied and ended the call…
she picked up her hand bag, didn't even bother changing her clothes and rushed out, fortunately a cab just dropped a passenger, she hopped in without asking the price and just gave out the location that was sent to her on WhatsApp…
the driver looked at her .. and wandered, who is she and what is she going to that side of the town to do, she is definitely not even rich .. sigh… well might be visiting a friend or working as a house help there, poor child…
Dinah who looked up at this time and saw the pity look on the driver's face and coughed …
"ehmm mr any problem… Dinah asked..?"…
"oh sorry dear, guess u are going to that location to work? The driver asked…
"oh yeah..
" How do you know? Dinah replied surprised …."
"The elderly driver smiled and said … of course I can tell you don't live there…"
…"what is he getting at, Dinah thought ,… okay…. She said"
"is this your first time .. he asked again…
..Dinah who was getting uncomfortable said … "yeah.. just took up the part time job to pay off my bill…
" the driver smiled and said, my dear .. be strong, I just like young girls who try not to live off at the expense of selling their body, definitely you will attain Greater heights….
Dinah managed to smile, and said "okay thank you…
the rest of the journey to her destination was peaceful… so she started looking around the quiet buildings surrounded by nice landscape and she was mesmerized by the beauty of the nature she is seeing for the first time… getting to the gate of the estate … they were stopped by the security men, but immediately they saw her face they told the driver to stop that they will take it from there, she paid the driver and came down , the driver collected his money and left … Dinah on the other hand followed the security man to a car packed at the side of the gate , getting close to the car , Oliver came down from the car…
"hi Dinah ….Oliver said… "
"mr Queen…Dinah replied …."
He smiled and said, "it's Oliver, miss Snow White …"
The security man was astonished to see his mean face boss smiling … he bowed and left…
"ehhmmm sorry …Oliver what are you doing here… Dinah asked?..
"came to welcome you to our home.." Oliver replied …
she looked at him, looked around the beautiful Landscape… and wandered how rich this beautiful man is…..
"ehhhmmm thank you.. she said to him "…
he came around to her side and opened the door for her…
"your welcome he said smiling …"
