Mummy, Daddy is on his knees

Bianca’s heart skipped a beat, here was this feeling again, the one she felt the last time at the party where he tried to flirt with her..

His arm around her was surprisingly warm and in a way made her feel secure, snapping out of her weird thoughts, she wriggled her way out of his hold..

“Stay far away from me!”

Xander placed both hands on her shoulder, he gave it a light squeeze totally ignoring her glares and warning he still failed to understand why he was attracted to the one lady who gave him the cold shoulder every single time he approached her..

“A chance is all I’m asking for… what are you scared of losing?” he inquired raising a brow but she only shook her head slowly before a grin appeared on her lips..

Now that was scary, he pulled his hands off her but still maintained eye contact with her, he noticed a change in her behavior but couldn’t point a finger to it..

Bianca’s hands folded on her chest, she tilted her head to the side taking a proper glance at him from that angle..

“You want a chance?” she asked to receive an immediate nod from Xander..

“Then you’ll get it Mr Xander Gray..”

Xander’s jaw dropped in shock, surprise, disbelief and any other word he couldn’t think of right now..

He stared at her skeptically, something told him that there was a ‘but’ coming next up, this felt like a dream come true..

He doubted if this wasn’t a dream, it definitely was, why on earth would she even say that to him, the Bianca he knew wouldn’t even spare him a second glance..

“What?” he asked which sounded much more like a breath..

Bianca took a bold step forward to him with that smile still on her lips..

“I’ll give you a chance.. why? because I badly want to prove you wrong and also get you far away from my sight afterwards”

Xander’s face fell a little but it was quickly masked up with a subtle smirk, her reason might sound absurd but he couldn’t care less..

“Alright! I also want to prove you wrong.. I’ll definitely blow more than just your mind mark my words Bianca”

Heat crept up her cheeks by his declaration, he really did took this challenge seriously, she turned away from his piercing blue orbs before her cheeks burned out..

A duster was flung across the wall by a tired Alexa, she didn’t know how long Grandma Jade had been watching over her while she cleaned, however, she was already fed up with it..

“I can’t take it anymore! I’m done cleaning this room!”

A light but meaningful chuckle escaped the old lady’s throat..

“Just five minutes into cleaning and you’re already fed up? is that how lazy you rich people are?” She scorned rising up to her feet..Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Alexa heaved a deep breath, maybe if she could summon up the courage she could just go kneel and beg Olivia to help her out..

She snorted at the thought! she’d rather prefer to rot in this tiny stinking room than fall at Olivia’s feet to apologize..

“So?! I don’t see how any of these is your concern.. this is my apartment isn’t it? I can clean it up whenever I want and you don’t have a say in it oldie!”

Grandma Jade’s eyes shimmered with an unfathomable glint, she had dealt with many sassy girls like Alexa in the past and she wasn’t about to fail now..

She raised her stick swiping it at Alexa’s legs continuously while the latter jumped up and down dodging the surprisingly fast older lady’s attacks..

“Alright enough! I’ll clean it up okay?!” She yelled out for the old lady to stop..

Grandma Jade panted slightly, it’s been a long while since she last stressed herself this much, she felt tired and walked back to the duster..

She bent to pick it up, Alexa’s eyes rounded in surprise, She could swear that she just heard a bone popping sound and she was right because old jade placed a hand on her lower back with a small groan..

However she still picked up the duster and stood up right with another sound popping emanating from her waist..

She handed the duster to Alexa who obediently accepted it still in a daze..

“Ah.. I’ve never been so relieved before now.. I’ll send someone over to watch over you while you work! I’ve got plenty more of people like you to deal with in the other flats!”

A sigh of relief escaped Alexa’s lips as soon as the troublesome old lady was out, she tossed the duster once more and settled for the couch which was the first thing old jade made her clean just so she could take a sit..

“Oldies and their little troubles!” she murmured taking a sit on the couch, she took out her phone going through it totally unbothered about the state of the living room..

She hadn’t spoken to Rihanna since the previous day she left their home, Only the heavens knew what type of punishment Damien gave to her..

Damien was so far the most heartless brother she had known and his punishments were always inhumane or out of this world..

***

Olivia made her way to the restroom, she had to sprint out of the office and away from Damien, he was utterly shameless..

And when exactly did he become so cheeky to make her cheeks burn thereby turning her face into a tomato?..

She groaned out pushing the door to the restroom open effortlessly, her eyes fell on a lady mopping the floor with great difficulty..

Her brows drew together, in a way her back view looked really familiar but with that thought aside, she turned her back against the lady and faced the mirror..

She turned on the faucet placing her hand under the running water, she mentally cursed Damien for making her feel so weird..

That annoying boss of her’s who also happened to be Kelvin’s dad and her fake fiance deserved to be spanked on the butt by her..

A harsh drop on the tiled flooring jolted Olivia out of her thoughts, she raised her head to the mirror where she saw a familiar face glaring at her with hatred..

Her eyes widened in astonishment, she turned swiftly to come face to face with Rihanna’s darkened face..

“You?” She asked in disbelief..

Embarrassment washed over Rihanna’s face, just great! and the second disgusting thing she could see today was standing right in front of her.

She didn’t expect Olivia to resume throughout this week since the scandal about her and Damien having an affair was still on..

And why was Olivia staring at her in shock other than slapping her, pulling her hair or doing worse things to her..

Or Damien didn’t tell her the truth of who was responsible for that party’s incident?…

She snorted picking up the mop that dropped on the tiled flooring earlier..

“Can’t you just stop popping up into my life every now and then? you’ve done enough haven’t you?! what more do you want from me?!”

Olivia was taken aback, she was also left speechless wondering what went wrong with her head, why was it messing with her now of all times?

She tapped her head gently with her eyes clenched tightly..

“By the time I open my eyes she won’t be there anymore” she chanted beneath her breath..

She snapped her eyes open once more, this time, Rihanna was way madder than before..

Her eyes widened, what was the daughter of the Brown’s doing here mopping the restroom? and that too in a customized outfit for cleaners in the company..

A thought crept into her mind only for her left brow to lift up in amusement, this dummy could go to any extent just to get what she want..

“Are you doing this to get closer to Damien? you obviously lack self respect and self worth.. how could you even think of –

“Not another word! who do you really think you are huh? do you really think Damien is into you? he only wants his son and nothing more from your worthless self” Rihanna scorned grinning from ear to ear, she loved to see the red color on Olivia’s face so much..

Olivia arched a brow, she stretched forth her finger to Rihanna’s face with a mocking smile..

“Oh really? just check this out.. you were his fiancee for six months and you never got to the stage of wearing this priceless jewel.. I’ve been around not up to a month and look what I’ve got”

Rihanna’s knuckles turned white by her sides, she was so sure that ring would have been on her finger if Anita liked her from the start..

But no, Damien had to get another ring for her and not the Sterling’s heirloom..

“You think you’re special huh? but let me break it all out to you” She murmured in a breath..

She took few steps closer to Olivia with a roguish grin..

“Damien doesn’t care about you but his son because he is impotent”

A frown settled upon Olivia’s forehead, what was she talking about?

“And what made you think that I’ll believe what you just said about my fiance?” she demanded stressing the ‘fiance’ word a little bit too much..

“He was my boyfriend for five years before we decided to progress further into the relationship.. but guess what?! Damien never tried to touch me.. that speaks a lot for itself doesn’t it?” A coy smile played on her lips as soon as she got the reaction she wanted from Olivia..
