"Yes. Again. She's the mastermind behind all this chaos. There's something I want to make clear to her before I start sorting out this mess she has made." I divulge and walk over to the transparent wall to ceiling window that givesa view of the city below. The top of sky-scrappers, a few birds flying here and there, the busy street beneath and the only thing that's savingfrom the cacophony produced by the cars and other activities going on below is the sound-proofed glass window. "I'm waiting." I tell Kyle who seems to still be planted on his spot. One of these days, we're going to have to talk. He servesdiligently and I'm grateful to him for that, but I can't ignore the fact that he's affected by this in sway. Alina is his one and only sister and he loves her. "I'm on it." His retreating footsteps fill my ears and I only turn around when I hear the door closing behind me.
I know Alina's motives for spreading this news. I know what she wants from me. I know the extent to which she's willing to go just to get what she wants from me.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBut she's not going to get it. Not even in her wildest dreams! I have never felt anything for her. Even if I didn't meet Ashanti, Alina would not be the girl I'd choose to spend the rest of my life with. She's the worst! Twenty minutes later, she's walking into my office with a smug smile planted at the side of her lips.
"Two times in a single day? Does this mean you're finally warming up to me?" Her shrill voice fills my ears and I cringe. Her wicked smile spreads all over her face and I fight my urge to roll my eyes. Warming up to her, my ass! "You must think you're very smart, Alina." "It's not a thought, it's a fact. I am smart." She stops in front of me, smirking.
"Oh... Is that so?" "Yes, it is so." She strikes a killer pose and crosses her arms over breasts. My eyes drop to her stomach and the little bulge I spot makes my heart turn. I can't believe my life has been turned upside down by the mere existence of that bulge.
"Did you honestly think that your father and the council of elders could bullyinto choosing you over Ashanti?" I ask calmly, dangerously and she squints, feigning surprise.
"What?" "As if telling your father about your pregnancy was not enough, you went ahead to spread the good news to the council of elders? To rally them against my relationship with Ashanti?" "I did nothing of that sort! I have no idea what you are talking about." She's looking atas though I've lost my mind and I can't help but commend her acting skills.
"Don't you dare lie to me, Alina." I take long strides towards her, anger brewing in my veins and my temper slipping to the ground, shattering into pieces on the floor. "You told them!" "No, I did not! And I will not stand here and listen to you accuse of doing something I know nothing about." She says, breathing hard and my anger grows hotter.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLooking at her right now makesthink of a thousand terrible things I could do to hurt her which includes ending her miserable life.
"If the elders got to know about the pregnancy, you should blmy father, not me. He was distraught when I told him about it and if he told he the elders, it means he's simply trying it to fight for me, his daughter, like a father should! How would you feel if you had a daughter and a guy got her pregnant and that sguy plans to marry someone else. How would you take that news?" Her voice is tight with anger and bitterness, but all I see in her eyes is pretence. God, she's good at this!
Instigating a devious act and playing victim when When she's caught.
I breathe in one quick, sharp, shaky breath and contemplate whether to throw her out of my office or not. X
