Dressed chivalrous in exotic fabrics, the reception grand hall at the hilt of Stone City was shrouded with influential figures every reeked of money."Well, I can't believe I'm standing here." Wayne almost squeals in her excitement."You should Thank Natalie." Mrs Debbie said, striking on her heels and walking inside. The lights aligning with the decoration bring out the rich fabric of her maxi gown.If sarcasm was electricity, Mrs Debbie's gown would have been a power plant. "What? You can't necessarily downgrade me like this." "That's the truth, you are low on a budget now, my son even got the ticket to Tiffany for you. Yet you're so shameless to come along with your useless son-in-law." Lucien's mother, a tall brunette, laced her manicured hand around the glass of wine and super from it."What are you talking about? We secured the place ourselves, be careful of your words. Deficit!" Mrs Debbie spat back at her.Lucien's mother laughed painfully. Her red lipstick and her brow bec
The listing of the table was brought before the host on a paper "What is happening? I thought Lucien was the host." Mrs Debbie asked panic struck.For the first time, she didn't take out her time to insult the greasy son-in-law he had. She flipped her gaze to Lucien but the man chatted and chuckled with his mother."Mother, we can't afford a single thing in Tiffany yet we have a table to ourselves," Natalie said in a dry voice sensing the aura in a pessimistic way.Wayne too was scared, "I would have stayed outside and now no one can leave here. We're equally stuck."Natalie was struck by lightning and was taken aback by the current situation. It was impossible to say what Lucien is feeling like. She tried to keep everything in her stomach but it was a launching event."We have to get something or we're doomed." Mrs Debbie then took notice of Dylan. "What! Don't stand there!""Where do you want him to stand, Mother?" Natalie said feeling bad that he went to the mechanic for her."Any
Lucien, seeing the challenge in Dylan's eyes, looked to another side with a scoff and then back to Dylan.Dylan had fought so hard to avoid every chance but maybe beneath this foul action directed at him."You have to stop this Lucien." "What can you do?" Lucien tucked his hand into his pocket thinking through but couldn't find the perfect image.Dylan on the other hand moved closer to Lucien so close that the tip of their nails almost dug into one another.He smiled at him. "Why don't you be a good boy and keep your distance." The challenge in Dylan's eyes was quite provocative.Lucien takes a step closer to Dylan with a sneer. He plucked his hand from his pocket and swatted it across Dylan's shoulder and brought it to his nose."Is this the man you rely on to pay your bills, Mrs Debbie?" He asked, pointing his gaze at the woman.Mrs Debbie blinked her eyes. "What! Are you judging him now? After all, it's been said, don't judge a book by its cover.'' Mrs Debbie replied, burned out o
Chapter Thirty-one(masked son-in-law)Wayne was now piquing interest in what the man said.The old man was Mr Dorogo's childhood friend. They have lived through their years together, their friendship came to a standstill when Dorogo figured he was not the sheep that he worked with for several years."And you what would you do for the oppressed?" Mr Dorogo speaking back left them in awe.Mr Twister never bothered to invest with the Dorogo despite everything that was done. "I have my esteem." The man let out with a hard look.Mr Dorogo stepped closer struggling not to roll his eyes. He let out. "Your esteem or your selfishness?" "Come home now!" The text was seen by Mrs Debbie.It was sent by Mr Bush accompanied by four missed calls move which she saw because she was acting as the moderator of the Wonders before her.She wouldn't have had this chance of Mr Dorogo supporting her if she hadn't been grabbed access for that she was more than delighted that Natalie brought her good-for-noth

Mrs Debbie stepped forward with a dashing smile on her face. "Oh my husband, you surprised me with great news so early."Mrs Debbie we more than flustered, a marriage union is all she had screamed about way before their company's tough time and now this was a loophole Mr Dorogo has come to realize.He turned to face Wayne with the most unconcerned look and then sighed. "Wayne, you will be having a marriage with the first son of the Williams family.""Father!" Wayne almost screeched, she turned with the most discerning look to face her mother. "I'm not ready to be hitched yet." "You're not ready?" Mr Bush's bitter tone made her voice shiver hard."No it's not that, I can't marry someone I don't love." Wayne let out. She had always wanted Lucien for herself despite knowing he is a pom pompous ass. Mr Bush waved his hand in the air commanding her to stop. Wayne rolled her eyes, tears rolled out. She turned to Francis but he did take a step back and his mother's joyous expression faded
Ric has a flash, and he gazed up, Mr Bush never acknowledged his position in the family. He let out a roaster of laughter that was distraughting, he dropped the memo and he saw Francis stepping forward towards them."Ric you have quite the flare," Francis said trying to get his grasp as to why Dylan was so close to Ric."What are you doing here Francis?" Ric was suspicious of the harsh and unwelcoming look on his brother's face. Ric rubbed his chin then shoot up patting his brother's shoulder, "Francis, I thought you belong to another branch of the company downtown and not here, what brings you to the capital?" Ric asked, he slightly tilted his head and nodded for Dylan to leave."Brother, I see you have something up your sleeves." Francis let out while sitting down And glaring at Dylan."While I take my leave, Ric I think you might want some more."Ric smiled, he tossed the pen finding the courage in Dylan's speech impressing, he scoffed. "Dylan has changed a lot, I find this impress
"It is only a matter of time, you have to let her die as part of your revenge or save her." The old man said to Dylan as he tried to piece the whole situation into one big frame."Why did you say that?" To him meeting the president wasn't something to cause a fuss about, it could be deadly but not for a task that looks fruitless as this. Natalie had gone for two days now and the mansion gate had been locked."I want to know," Dylan said. The man stopped on his heels and stepped towards Dylan."Mr Dorogo will prefer it if you keep your lane as his successor.""I should know why he showed up at Tiffany's launch and created a fuss that night. If I must succeed him these are things that shouldn't be kept a secret." Dylan's piercing gaze was seen through his voice.The man stepped closer, laying his hand on Dylan's chest, the street light illuminating both men as they were close together."I've scored more than I should and my loyalty is questioned. Meet your father and ask him, he will no
