They grimaced as they turned towards her, "Mom, I was just having a conversation with Camara." Rose said but she didn't say anything else.Grandma stared at her with anger in her eyes, "My guests are getting well." She said, Her party was always the talk of the town and she wouldn't like this year to be different. There was a reason she was called the Queen of parties. " Mom, it was just for a minute, I'm sure they won't die of starvation." Rose replied tiredly, not happy that she was facing this kind of lashing from her mother in front of her daughter. If she wanted to make a correction which this wasn't by the way, she could call her secretly and talk about it not speak as though she was a kid."Don't take that tone with me young lady." Grandma said and Rose rolled her eyes. Anger welled in her eyes as she stared at her daughter.Camara felt the need to come in between them, this was what happened when a mother and daughter were strong-willed. This was also expressed in her mother'
Dominic was up before the crow of the birds and he scanned through his phone which had been beeping. It was a message from Eleanor yet again, filled with a little irritation mixed with curiosity as to why she was sending messages so early after he had expressly told her what to do, he dialed her number.He went out of the room and closed the door gently remembering this time to speak in low volumes so that Selena didn't start quizzing him again.Eleanor picked up on the first ring, she was surprised why her boss didn't pick up immediately he heard the beep. Well that was probably the perks of being with a new woman.Not like she was jealous, well probably a tiny weenie jealous but that was not the right." Good morning sir" she said immediately she heard his voice. " Sorry for calling this early, sir." " No, you're not sorry, tell me why you called." Dominic replied curtly.She almost sighed, "Sir, we've been stuck with what to do. I told the Lieutenant about your idea but he says t
A few hours later, At the Company, " They've arrived!" A man said and the rest of the workers comported themselves. They were on their feet as their bosses walked in. "Good morning, ma'am," " Good morning, sir." They greeted each other as they walked past them. As if they had spoken about it, none of them replied as they continued into the lift. " Let's give them a show." Dominic said and Selena nodded, so he pulled her into his arms and gave her a torrid kiss which sent the workers mouth drop in shock as the lift door closed." Someone tell me to close my mouth, this is unbelievable!" Ryan exclaimed, it was as if he was daydreaming." If anyone had told me that both of them would end up together I would have sworn and said no, alas, what do I know?" Another worker commented." How can she stoop so low to date, talk more of planning to marry that riffraff?" Amelia contributed, green with envy. What a gem that slipped off their hands!Emily looked up from her computer, she was the
Dominic's mood instantly changed immediately he heard the words. "Why do you say so?" He asked. He didn't want to go to Victoria right now but if worse came to the worst, he would have no choice than to do that." Cindy tells me that there is a group of people scouting at the border, we are on our way to see how true that is." " Okay, then, you can leave. Tell me whatever is going on there. Do you have any information about Anderson?" He spoke slowly as he saw Selena giving him a curious look."No, I haven't. I wanted to inform you first." " Are you in the armor tank?" " Yes, sir." " Alight and go by foot, inform Anderson, if it becomes really serious beep me." He ordered." Yes, sir." Eleanor replied and Dominic ended the call abruptly. She looked around.Dominic stared ahead and didn't know why she preferred to report to him instead of her superior all the time. There was a reason he had someone in place, so that he didn't get bothered all the time. He made a mental note to ta
"Miss Selena?" Amelia replied in shock, " I didn't see you there." She said, a bit of fear flickering in her eyes as she stared at her boss as she tried to figure out if she was heard. Selena stared at her blankly, " I don't want to see you in the premises after five p.m." She walked away and Amelia ran after her." Miss Selena. You can't just tell me to leave the company." She complained and Selena ignored her completely. Amelia ran towards her and held her hand, " Please don't make me go." She begged.Selena shrugged Amelia's hand away, " Please don't send me away ma." She begged and Selena stopped to stare at her. "Get out of my premises. I'll send you a severance package. Do well to make sure that I don't see you around here. If I do, I will lock you up." She threatened and walked away. A few footsteps stopped at Amelia's side as they rubbed her shoulder, " It'll be alright. Maybe we could appeal to Dominic." Todd suggested as she remained very sober and hurt. Amelia stared a
At this point, Dominic was alarmed. He couldn't stay here anymore. but he thought, if she had time to type then he could still do a bit of damage control at least to make sure that they didn't completely lose.He replied to her immediately, " I'll call Anderson." He dialed Anderson's number immediately. Pick up..." Good day, sir. I'm on my way to the scene, Eleanor tells me that a lot of people were killed." He replied and Dominic almost rolled his eyes at the statement of course need to be fast about it. He wanted to query him but decided to push it back till after the fight. "Get me their heads, I don't care how many they are. I'll be arriving tomorrow." He said. Anderson sighed in relief, it had been long that he had been trying to get Dominic to return but he seemed so interested in finding love. He guessed this attack was a good one anyway." Yes, sir." Dominic hung up and texted Eleanor back, " make sure you are hidden, reinforcement is coming." He said.Eleanor sighed in re
Dominic's departure caused a plethora of feelings in her heart but she didn't want to show it. Never had she missed anyone so badly as she did him and he had not even gone. " Are you sure your socks are in there?" She reminded him. Although he said that he had a lot over there that didn't stop her from making sure that she packed a small bag for him. " Yeah." Dominic chuckled, she reminded him of a mother bear which he would have found offensive but he understood that she was only doing it out of love therefore he didn't feel weird. Selena snuck up on him at least she thought she did and tickled him. Dominic pretended to be startled and he turned. With a smile on his lips he lifted her up and she locked her feet behind his waist. " Hmm, I think I'm going to miss you a bit." He teased.Selena wore a mock offended look, " Oh, really, I might not miss you at all. I could just party away with the men who come my way." Dominic growled and Selena chuckled, although he knew that she wa
"Make sure you find him and bring him back here alive." Dominic ordered. Anderson almost fell off his chair when he saw Dominic standing behind him With a widening of the eyes, he rose to his feet briskly. " Welcome, general." He saluted him. " Yes,sir." The soldier on the other end of the phone replied swiftly when he heard that' the General had arrived. Dominic signaled to Anderson and he passed him the phone, "Don't get hurt chase him to the mountains, capture him and make sure he gets here in an hour. I repeat: do not get injured." He ordered. These soldiers went into battles blindly, hence they got wounded most of the time and for someone like him who didn't have the time to pity people when they could have just done the right thing, he wouldn't take it lightly with him. " Do you have back up with you?" He asked. " Yes, sir." He replied. " Then go after him." He replied. That was all they needed to announce his return, there were a few shouts as he ended the call and he g
