Family secrets
“Baby”.
Val hit me and pinched me on my thigh, that was a signal I shouldn’t be too fast.
I smiled back awkwardly at them.
“Very well, I will arrange for the marriage this week”.
Her uncle concluded.
“I will appreciate that”.
I smiled back.From NôvelDrama.Org.
A maid came and informed them about something in a whisper, Uncle nodded and waved her off.
“Well Mr Prince, please join us for dinner”.
He told me.
“Thanks a lot”.
I stood up with Valerie still glued to me, we walked hand in hand to the dining room.
After settling down and the meals dished out, Val was searching around secretly for something.
“So Uncle, what about Phebes and Laura?”
“Oh they must be in their rooms”, he swallowed his food and called a maid.
“Get my daughters tell them, their cousin Valerie is here with her suitor”.
He instructed.
The maid bowed and left.
“So what is your occupation dear?”
Aunt asked.
I raised my brow then exchanged glances with Valerie.
“I am a CEO”.
“CEO of what?”
She snapped it out, almost removing her good character mask.
I pretended not to hear her question, that made her a bit angry, suddenly we heard footsteps approaching.
“Yeah yeah she brought a suitor , what’s special about it? The last time she got a suitor, what happened?”
The speaker paused abruptly seeing that everyone was staring at her then her eyes went to my face.
I was frowning because of her nasty comment about Valerie then she screamed like she would die the next minute.
“Oh my God, it’s Prince?”She screamed.
“Prince, don’t be ridiculous”.
Her sister snapped and looked at me with squinted eyes then her eyes grew bigger and bigger.
“Oh- my -shut the duck up! Prince!”
They dashed to the dining but surprisingly a guard stopped them , and even more surprising the guard was no other than Valerie with her hands spread wide.
“That’s it, stop right there, don’t come any close, it’s my man okay?”
She spread her hands covering me, I tried not to laugh.
“He is my man and I won’t let you guys start doing what you did last time to Luke”.
I thought she was joking around but she clearly wasn’t.
They walked to their various seats while Valerie settled down on hers too.
“What’s the big deal? It was just a kiss!”
Laura snapped.
“Yeah, a kiss that ended up being a hardcore”.
Valerie said that with tears, gosh I am trying to show my hate for this family.
They hurt her so badly, I just hate that I have to take their permission before making her my wife fully.
Her mother’s jaw dropped and her uncle spilled his drink.
“What is she talking about Laura!”
Their father’s voice thundered.
“It’s not my fault she brought home a dog who wanted to sleep with everything on skirt, he asked for it father, it’s not like I seduced him or something “.
Laura defended with an eyeroll.
“You slept with your cousin’s Fiancé?”her father asked again in a raging laugh.
“He sneaked into my bedroom, Phoebe tell them not to just stare!”
Phoebe coughed and swallowed awkwardly.
“Wait, Phoebe is aware of this too?”
Her mother asked them about her shocked eyeballs yet to regain their former size and shape.
“It was a threesome”.
Laura revealed.
Their mother dropped her cutlery and placed both hands on her head in total shock.
“Did you see this yourself?”
The uncle demanded roughly from Val.
I looked at Val and she nodded shamefully.
” It was the past and she said she’s forgiven us now, why bring it up Valerie?”Laura snapped at her.
“Shut the hell up, how could you.. the two of you sleep with your cousin… you know what I want to see the two of you inside the room now”.
Their mother ordered, the two dropped their spoons and stormed out of the dining.
“You saw this and still went ahead with that fool!”
Uncle yelled at Valerie.
I watched in silent chewing slowly, then my eyes went to Valerie, her hands were shaking when her Uncle was scolding her.
I couldn’t bear it, and I have completely lost my appetite.
“Enough with the yelling, I won’t let you talk to her like that in my presence”.
