Immediately Brian left, I went back to the room and changed the office dress. I wore my favorite Addidas up and down which consists of a crazy top, blue joggers and matching blue sneakers. Picking up my Dior bag, I looked around for my phone.
When I finally found it, I looked at the badly shattered screen. “My poor baby,” I murmured ki-ssing it before leaving the room. When I got to the sittingroom, I was surprised to find a strange man sitting down holding a large shopping bag. Immediately he noticed me, he stood up and bowed.
“Who are you?,” I asked.
“Madam, I’m Joe. One of boss b©dyguards. He asked me to give this to you,” he answered handing over the large shopping bag to me. I sat down and checked the bag.
“Why are there so many phones?,” I asked surprised to see so many packs of different phone br@nds.
“Boss didn’t know which one you would prefer that’s why he asked me to bring them over for you to pick your choice,” he replied.
I smiled and brou-ght out the first phone pack. Immediately I frowned noticing it’s the lastest iPhone. I dropped it back. I don’t like apple phones especially iPhone. After checking, I finally settled down for a Samsung phone. I returned the bag to him and wrote a ‘thank you’ note for Brian. He collected the note and bowed again.
“Bye Joe. Thank you,” I said as he left the room. I set up my new phone and left. When I went to Brian’s garage, I stood for a while wondering if I’m allowed to take any of his cars. Another guy appeared again suddenly scaring me. “Who are you?”
He bowed. Why do they keep bowing? “ I’m Tim ma. Boss asked me to accompany you to where ever you want to go. A chauffeur is waiting for us in the limo,” he replied. I looked around and finally saw the limo. “I can’t go out in that limo. It’s too eye-catching. Let’s take a less eye-catching car,” I said.
He nodded and called the chauffeur to bring over another car. When the chauffeur finally brou-ght the car. It turned out to be Bugatti. I sighed as I entered. What p@rt of eye-catching don’t they un-derstand?

“Mom, I’m saying the truth. I saw it written in those files. Ivy is literally the owner of most of the shares in dad’s company,” I said. Mom looked at me and answered,“If the daughter of that dead bit-ch has most of the shares in the company. There won’t be nothing left for us to inherit.”
I walked to the window, stared at the servants working outside,“ Mom I regret not listening to you or this would never have happened. I hate Ivy so much that I want her dead.” Mom hurriedly walked over and covered my mouth.
“Ssh Marie, don’t say things like that out loud. You never know who might be nearby. The walls have ears,you know,” mom said. I re-moved her hands and whined,“Mom you have to do something. I nee-d to find a way to get closer to Brian. We can have whatever we want in this world once I have him.”
Mom’s reply was interrupted by the sound of a car driving in. I checked the window thinking it’s dad. But when I saw an unfamiliar shiny Bugatti driving in, I immediately moved closer to the window to see the occu-pa-ntof the car. When Ivy stepped out looking stunning as always, my hatred for her grew in hundred folds.
“The nerve of that bit-ch. How dare she try to flaunt that car in my face. I’ll teach her a lesson she will never forget,” I uttered. Then I rushed out of the room, feeling so much hatred in my heart.

When we finally got to my father’s house, I waved goodbye to Tim and told him I’ll call whenever I’m re-ady to leave. I walked into the mansion as soon as they left.
“Mom!,” I shouted wondering why the house is so silent. I walked towards Mrs Helen’s room and bu-mped into the last person I want to see right now. I know she bu-mped into me on purpose.
“bit-ch! Can’t you watch where you are going?,” Mariana yelled. I rolled my eyes not responding. Why is she screaming? She was obviously the one not watching where she’s going. I ignored her and tried to bypa-ss her but she blocked my path.
“I’m talking to you bit-ch! How you dare ignore me? You daughter of a wench!,” she shouted and I looked at her angrily. I can accept her calling me names but how dare she call my mother a prostitute.
I slapped her face angrily and she held her face in shock. She immediately raised her hand to return the slap but I held her hand. “Don’t you dare call my mother a wench. Just because she’s dead doesn’t mean you can say whatever you want,” I said.
Just then I felt a sharp pain in my head. I re-leased her hand immediately and held my head in pain. I’m suddenly having a severe headache. As I raised my head to look at Marie, I was too late to hold her hand this time around. She slapped me so ha-rd that I hit my head on the wall.
Coupled with the terrible headache I’ve just experienced and the way I hit my head on the wall, I fell down. gro-an ing in pain, I tried to open my eyes but the next I saw was darkness. As I lost consciousness, I could hear someone calling my name. But the voice sounded faraway.

I looked at Ken angrily as I asked,“What do you mean I can’t sack Kim? Have you forgotten that I’m the boss here not you?”
He looked at me and handed a file to me. “Sir, you are not the one that employed her so you don’t have the right to sack her. Your father was the one that employed her and even though you are the boss he’s still the chairman.” I looked at the file frustrated that I can’t sack Kim. When will dad give me the full ownership to the company and the premium account.
I saw something in the file and smiled,“But I can transfer her to another br@nch.” He nodded and I chuckled. I brou-ght out a letter and signed my name.
“Give her this transfer letter immediately and inform her that it’s urgent,” I said. He nodded and collected the letter before leaving my office. I brou-ght out my phone and looked at the wallpaper. It’s a picture of Ivy wearing a black dress. I saw it on internet and immediately saved it. I stared at the picture and looked at her dyed hair. The white coloured hair suit her milky skin.
I miss her so much. I wonder if she’s got my gift yet. I’ll call her later. I dropped the phone and focused on the workload in my laptop.

Ivy🌹
I gro-an ed lightly as I opened my eyes slowly. I feel like I’ve been hit by a truck as my head aches alot. “Thank goodness you are awake Ivy. I was so scared,” I heard Mrs Helen say.
I looked around the familiar room and tried to sit up. Mrs Helen hurriedly a-ssisted me and gave me a gla-ss of water to drink. As soon as I finished the water, I tried to tou-chmy throbbing head. But Mrs Helen hurriedly stopped me,“Don’t tou-chyour head. The bandage is completely soa-ked with blood. I was just about to change it when you woke up.”
I la-id back as she changed the thin bandage. “Mom what time is it?” She checked the clock,“ It’s few minutes past four. Why do you ask?” I panicked slightly saying,“Mom it’s getting late. I’ll have to go back home soon or Brian will be so worried.”
“Ssh… You are not in a good condition to go home now. I’ll tell him to come over, okay,” she said and I sighed.
“What happened between you and Marie again?”
“She called my mother a wench so I slapped her. I couldn’t defend myself from her slap because I suddenly had a terrible headache,” I answered yawning still feeling dizzy.
“Headache? Did you forget to use the medicines the thera-pist recommended for you again?,” she asked worriedly.
“No, I left them here so I couldn’t use them. Mom I feel so dizzy,” I whined. She to-uched my hair gently. “Then go to sleep,” she whispered soothingly. “Have you told him about your kleptomania?,” she asked.
“No,” I answered half-asleep. “When will you tell him?”, she asked again. But I couldn’t respond as I closed my eyes and let sleep take over.

Brian walked into the house holding a golden jewelry box. As he walked into the sitting room he was surprised to find everywhere silent. “Ivy!,” he shouted checking the rooms in the mansion. He dropped the jewelry box on his king-sized be-d and went on searching. After finally deciding that she’s not in the mansion, he called Tim.
“Tim, where’s my wife?,” Brian asked impatiently scattering his hair with his hand. Tim bowed and replied,“Sir she asked to drop her at her father’s mansion saying she would call whenever she is re-ady to leave.”
“She didn’t call?,” he asked again and Tim shook his head. “And you could not go back to check if something is wrong?,” Brian asked this time angrily and Tim lowered his head not replying. “I’ll deal with you later.” he said as Tim bowed and left the room. He was about to leave when his phone rang.
📲Hello, is this Brian?
📱Yes, who is this?- Brian asked checking the time impatiently.
📲This is Helen, Ivy’s nanny. You have to come get her as she isn’t feeling well at the moment.
Then she cut the call without allowing Brian to reply.

Brian 🌹
I walked into my in-laws mansion worriedly. Why is she suddenly not feeling well? She was perfectly fine when I left in the morning. A maid bowed and led me to the room she’s staying in. I greeted the middle aged woman in the room.
“You are Mrs Helen right? Where’s my wife ma’am?” I asked and she pointed at the be-d. I rushed to the be-d and stopped when seeing the state my feisty kitten is in. She’s slee-ping so peacefully with a bandage on her head. The bandage looks a little bit soa-ked with blood. Her cheek is slightly swollen with ba-rely visible handprint on it. I squee-zed my hands angrily.
Who dares to do this to her? “What happened to her?,” I asked lowly my eyes turning red in anger. I sat on the be-d and pat her hair slowly. “She got into a little fight with her sister and this happened,” Mrs Helen replied.
I turned to look at her. “You call this a little fight! I let her come visit for just a day and a bit-ch dare do this to my wife. How dare she raise her hands on Ivy!?” I shouted feeling so angry that I could strangle the bit-ch. “Brian…,” I heard Ivy whispered.
She’s finally awake. I collected a gla-ss of water from Mrs Helen before giving Ivy to drink. Then I helped her sit up on the be-d. “How do you feel?,” I asked and she answered,‘Fine’. “You are going home right away. I won’t let you spend another goddamn minute in this place,” I said scooting over to carry her.
Just before I carried her, the door opened and her father c@m£ in followed by his wife and the bit-ch. “Ivy, thank God you are alright. I just heard of what happened,” her father said coming to the be-d to tou-chher.
“Don’t you dare tou-chher! You were around and you let that witch you call a daughter do this to her. What kind of a father are you!,” I stopped him from coming closer. He just stood not saying anything. Ivy held the sleeves of my shirt trying to get me to calm down.
“See she slapped me first,” the bit-ch whatever her name is c@m£ forward showing me her swollen cheek. I stood up from the be-d ignoring Ivy’s call for me to stop. I walked towards her and the bit-ch walked backwards seeing how angry I look.
“Apologize right now,” I said quietly. She looked shocked,“I won’t. Ivy should be the one apologising. I didn’t do anything wrong,” she still has the guts to spit out nons-ense. “I’m being lenient with you. Apologise right now! Tony knows what I can do,” I answered.
She looked at her father who said,“Marie apologise right now.” So the bit-ch name is Marie. She walked to where Ivy was sitting and said,“Ivy I’m sorry.” I could see her glaring at Ivy. She still doesn’t know who she’s dealing.
I walked to Ivy and carried her in my arms gently. As I walked out, I said,“I don’t accept that apology. If you don’t find a way to apologise to her within three hours, Tony will be the one suffering for it.” Then I walked out with Mrs Helen following me closely.

“Is this what you teach your daughter Tonia!? I’ve never felt as disappointed as I am in her today. Who knows what Brian would do to my company? I had great difficulty getting his parents to convince him,” father ranted. I felt so frustrated and angry.
First it was Brian now father. Why was Brian even defending Ivy fiercely like that? I hope he hasn’t started falling for her. Oh God! I put my hand on my che-st as my heart starts beating fas-ter in panic.
“Father, it wasn’t my fault. She called my mother a wench. That’s why I slapped her,” I lied not even feeling a little bit of guilt. Father looked at me.
“Even if Ivy called your mother wench. You could have let it be for a while. And I would have taught her a lesson my own way. You have to look for a way to apologise to Ivy before Brian does something to my company,” father said and left the room.
I sneered at him as he left the room. He’s behaving as if he’s still the owner of the company. Where did mom even meet dad? He’s such a loser. When he can’t even protect his own company, how do I expect him to protect me?
“Mom..” I said but mom raised her hand stopping my statement. Gosh! Mom’s angry also. “Marie, I wonder what’s wrong with you? I always warn you not to behave so rashly but you never listen. Find a way to get out this mess you got yourself into,” mom uttered leaving the room.
“Mom plea-se, you can’t do this to me,” I immediately followed her.

I carried Ivy into the car and dropped her on the car seat gently. ki-ssing her lightly on thel-ips, I said,“Stay here. I’ll be right back. I just want to talk to Mrs Helen quic-kly.” She held my hands and immediately said,“Don’t shout at her. Mom didn’t do anything wrong.”
I smiled,“ I know so stop worrying and relax, okay.” She smiled sweetly and I couldn’t resist ki-ssing her again before leaving the car…
✴️
When I c@m£ back to the car and we left, Ivy noticed the change of my countenance in the car. Cause I didn’t say anything ever since I c@m£ back into the car. She moved closer to me snuggling and I put my hands around her.
“What’s wrong?,” she asked me.
I looked into her eyes and asked back,“ Why didn’t you tell me about your kleptomania issue?”
She looked stunned,“What…”
