Mummy, Daddy is on his knees

Nathan caught up with Bianca who was just about to enter a cab, he held her arm to stop her from boarding the cab back home..

“Bianca.. I’ll drop you off, come on let’s go”

She inhaled deeply and reluctantly agreed to go along with him, he opened the front door of the black Maybach for her to step in..

“This feels really awkward.. how about you let me do it myself?”

Nathan’s brows creased, he wondered what she meant by that and to his surprise, she shut the door of the car and opened it by herself once more..

“See? not so weird anymore.. you’re my mum’s boyfriend so behave like one, and stop making me feel so uncomfortable..”

Nathan raised his hands in a surrender gesture, he got her point really well, he walked around the other side to get into the driver’s seat..

The glass to a black Rolls Royce at a farther end rolled down as a pair of icy blue orbs traced the car that just left the restaurant’s parking lot..

“She literally talks to every other guy except me” Xander muttered irritably which Becky heard quite well..

She chuckled hard at Xander’s tantrums, this was a new thing to her, it was shocking that there seemed to be a lady who Xander was trying so hard for her to notice him..

“Wait, do you know her?”

She asked to receive a nod from him, she recognized who that lady was, she saw her two days ago at Olivia’s house..

“If you like her, why don’t you just walk up to her and tell her about it? don’t tell me you’re scared of getting rejected”

Xander snorted, he doubted if that was really the case, he was upset because she was the first lady who rejected him and that too in public..

Heaven’s knew how embarrassed he was on that fateful night, his drinking buddies still teased him about it till date, he had made a little bet with them that he’d get her at any cost..

“Why would you even think of that?” He asked curiously.

Becky shrugged before stepping out of the car, she was way too famished to argue with anyone and especially if that happened to be Xander Grey..

“Come on out.. Mr Grey.. don’t sulk in there all day” She called out to him walking into the restaurant..

Damien propped his left foot against a small table, an ice pack was placed on top of the foot which he claimed was very sour..

Olivia’s scrutinizing gaze fell on his foot, didn’t he say that it was just a little pain? how come he was being so dramatic?

“If you had just listened to me.. you wouldn’t have hurt yourself” She started pulling her luggage case up the couch..

Damien turned his attention from his sour foot to her face which held no emotion, not even a single trace of pity could be found, was she really a human being?..

“You think I hurt myself on purpose?.. you were the one who clearly dropped your case on my foot! and for the question I’ve been meaning to ask all day.. why exactly did you bring so much for just a two day trip?”

“I didn’t pack any of these!” She argued..

Damien sneered, he examined his foot for a while before rising up to his feet, he walked to his luggage case and placed it on the double king sized bed..

“Hurry up we are having dinner with an old friend of mine by seven”

Olivia hummed in reply and opened her luggage case and at the same time Damien did, a look of horror crossed both of their faces when their eyes fell on the things in there..

“The heck?!” they both yelled out at the same time..

They faced each other confusedly before forcing a tight smile like all was well, as soon as they peeled their gazes from each other a sigh escaped their lips..

Olivia picked out a red lacy lingerie from the case holding it with the tip of her fingers, she should have known better than to let her mum and Bianca pack up her things..

Damien’s face fell also, he closed his luggage in frustration and pulled out his phone, he felt like everything going on right after they stepped into this city were all preplanned..

He was about to leave for the balcony when his eyes fell on the piece of clothing Olivia was holding..

He almost coughed out blood, Olivia quickly stuffed the lingerie into her luggage before shutting it, she cleared her throat in embarrassment..

Her cheeks blushed beet red, she took out her phone and turned away from him, her mum was so going to have an earful..

“Mum! what on earth did you pack up for me? I can’t wear that around.. you know” Olivia irritably asked..

Damien massaged his forehead at the other side “Mum stop speculating things that won’t happen! I trusted you enough to pack up my things and you-

The two turned around to face each other with their phone still placed to their ears..

Whatever they heard at the other end from their mothers made them yell out in unison..

“It’s just a business trip!”

Today was another day for the top class women in the society to gather for one of their show off meetings, Anita being the leader of the meeting since she was technically the wealthiest among them relaxed back on the throne like sofa she sat on whenever they hold a meeting..

To be honest, this meeting they held every week holds no meaning, it was just a bunch of women gisting, gossiping and showing off..

Which Anita was good at..

*That explains everything, hehehe*

In the large living room which belonged to the Grey’s, everyone of them sat on the plush sofa’s sinking into the comfort and luxury..

The use of living rooms was also considered as showoffs, on every meeting they held, they pick out their next meeting location..

“Silence women”

Anita called out to the women who were sitting before her holding their respective glasses of wine chattering away, her wandering eyes roamed around the living room in search of someone and almost immediately a firm footstep approached the living room..

“Oh there she is! Mrs Brown what took you so long to get here?”

Tracy’s eyes fell on Anita holding out her black colored Gucci bag and stretching on of her foot covered in a black heel..

“I’m sorry I was a bit late.. I was just out getting these limited collection babies..”

A gasp ensued from the women as they marveled at the flashy items Tracy was flaunting..

“Amazing!”

“So beautiful!”RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

“It suites you well!”

Anita rolled her eyes hard, she didn’t like how her attention was given away to Tracy like that making her feel left out..

She cleared her throat to get back their attention which she succeeded in doing..

“I’d like for everyone standing to find a spot to seat and if there isn’t any left.. the floor looks polished and clean enough to take a seat on” She nonchalantly mumbled obviously throwing her words at Tracy who was the only soul standing..

Tracy snorted in disdain and walked to a couch occupied by two women, as soon as they saw her approaching, they adjusted for her to sit obviously looking for a way to strike up a conversation with the third wealthiest woman here..

“Mrs Sterling! why don’t you tell us how your week went”

Anita’s smile grew wide as she stood up from her seat proudly, she twirled her glass of wine slowly as she took small steps closer..

“Oh! sure!.. my week would have been a lot better but some stupid stuff occured but anyway.. I was gifted a Bugatti by my lovely husband as a good morning present.. that man loves me to the moon and back”

Every other lady gasped except for Tracy who rolled her eyes, Aldrin should have been her husband by now, not Anita’s..

“And… my son, you know? Damien, got me a customized diamond accessory which is what I’m putting on right now..”

She raised her hand for them to see her diamond bracelets, hair pins, earrings, rings and lastly the necklace around her neck that glowed whenever a ray of light fell on it..

“Then I spent a fortune getting this babies for myself” She added flaunting her red satin gown and her gold colored stilettos..

“Enough with the show off already! and tell us why you organized this meeting for today”

Anita turned to the person who just spoke, her gaze fell on Tracy who was fuming in anger and jealousy..

“Oh yeah right! how could I forget the main reason I called for this meeting!”

Her lips curved into a mocking smile “I wanted to tell everyone about the failed marriage alliance between the Brown’s and the Sterling’s, that’s one juicy gist the city needs to hear, isn’t it?”

Tracy sprang up on her feet with a threatening glare, if Anita says anymore, her reputation would be tarnished amongst these gossip mongers lurking around..
