Sexy, Seductive, and Sultry

“I’m going to kill Mario!” Roberto ranted, pacing around. Ann was at his side, furious as she made several calls.

“That bastard, I’ll tear his flesh apart!” Ann flared, throwing her phone on the ground angrily.NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

“I’ve successfully blocked all the tv stations from screening the video but the problem now is the internet, several blogs have carried it and it’s hard because to convince them” Cassie announced.

“Get the service providers company on the phone now! I want everybody to lose access to the internet till further notice” Roberto let out and Ann stared at him with amazement.

“That’s a dangerous thing to do. If we do it, it’ll only prolong the matter and make it worse as more tongues would wag, let’s try to get the video off the internet” Ann advised.

“What way are we gonna get it off? The news has spread and everyone is aware of our affair! Do whatever it takes to get Mario” Roberto commanded and the guards nodded before leaving.

“I’ll try to make social media accounts to be banned for some time. It’ll be difficult but we just have to try” Cassie added.

“Find out who the spy is, I want to know how our plans are getting to Mario” Ann instructed and Cassie nodded.

“What are we going to do now?” Cassie demanded.

“If Mario wants war, I’ll give him war. First we’ll also hold a live interview. I’m tired of hiding, it’s time to take control” Ann replied with a stern look.

“Ann, think carefully before you say anything” Roberto advised and Ann nodded.

The hall was filled to the brim, reporters curious and murmuring amongst themselves. Roberto and his entourage entered, making the once noisy hall silent.

He stood at the podium, staring at them before stepping aside for Ann who had a serious look on her face.

“I’m sure y’all are wondering what I have to say after Mario disclosed such vital information. I’d like to address the things that have to do with my family first…” She watched the wager reporters.

“Having an affair with Roberto was a mistake at first but we had no option when I got pregnant.. knowing that I was at fault, I promised never to let the public know about my kids, I take full blame for that and I’ve been keeping to my promise even after the First Lady died..”

“But with the nature of my job, I was spending too much time away from my kids and they needed a fatherly figure in their lives, that was why we moved in with the president.. they never knew he was their father until someone who was trying to destroy our family leaked it…”

“I can’t blame Isabelle for leaving the house, anybody in her shoes would do even more. I’ve spoken to Isabelle and her siblings, they’ve settled things and have untied”

“I personally love the relationship between Isabelle and Annabella, they are the closest of friends. Isabelle has promised to return home when she has completed her fundraising project..” Ann disclosed sweetly, loving the turn of things.

“I would have loved to disclose this later but Roberto and I have decided to get married after the election… the country has been without a First Lady for four years and I wouldn’t want it to remain so again..” She announced, getting gasps from different angles, even Roberto couldn’t conceal his surprise.

“Now I’d like to address Mario’s case. He calls himself Roberto’s friend yet he’s willing to stab his friend right in the back. Mario has done a lot of harm to us and we’ve been very patient with him”

“The attack that happened on Andrea’s funeral was Mario’s plan to kill the president, I can mention several more attacks where he had tried to kill us but he didn’t succeed.. I could remember the day Mario came into my office, offering me the position of the Vice President if I joined forces with him to kill Roberto…”

“This is coming as a big shock, I know. Roberto’s plan initially was to get Andrea married to Isabelle in order to enter into our family and get more properties. Pity that Andrea is dead, leaving his wife and unborn kid alone. Yes! Andrea has been married and he was expecting his first child, but my sources told me that she had been in an unstable condition after Andrea’s death… I feel very sorry for her..”

“Mario thinks I have nothing against him but what I’m against is his wanton nature, his love for power and money is alarming, I can’t recall the number of times he has embezzled money and Roberto and I have to cover his act up with our money..”

“He has made several complains about his salary and allowances but we’ve been calm.. if you have a problem with me Mario, I’ll advise you come at me directly rather than beefing me on national TV, Roberto and I have nothing against you, we dropped you off because we couldn’t continue having a green snake in our midst…”

“Everyone had been putting up with your attitude but not anymore. We could end this beef if you’re willing to change your ways, Roberto and I are forever willing to take you back” Ann concluded and dropped the mic, getting lots of mutters.

“I have very little to add to what Ann has said, Mario has been very cunning and sly but I’ve always treated him rightly, I do not think he can change but I’m hoping he does because of the future…”

“I’m also using this medium to apologize to everyone, my affair with Ann is inappropriate but there’s nothing that can be done. I want the country to forgive me. Owing to the things happening, my marriage with Ann would be postponed till things have been settled”

“Also I’m saying a big sorry to my daughter Isabelle, she has been the best right from time, forgive daddy and come back home. I can also see the great job you’re doing in providing shelter for the homeless, I can’t be more proud of you and I think your mother would be very very proud of you” He concluded emotionally and stepped down.

20 minutes later

“Why did you make that announcement?” Roberto queried, getting a low groan from Ann.

“What announcement?” Ann replied, feigning ignorance.

“You made an announcement about us getting married after the election, we never had that discussion” Roberto scolded.

“And you made an announcement about postponing it… what else do you want me to say? I had to give them a convincing story, that was all that came to my head” Ann fired and Roberto sighed.

“Ann, you’re becoming something else, stop taking decisions alone without my consent, I don’t think you would ever become the First Lady so stop having that idea in your head” Roberto advised and Ann glared at him with anger.

“All the decisions I’ve taken is for you interest, do you think I’m after becoming First Lady, I don’t give a fuck about that position!” Ann yelled.

“Do I look like a fool! All these years, you’ve been working only for me even after you got several offers, you choose to work for me. You were offered the position of Vice President, what else do you want if not First Lady?” Roberto demanded furiously and Cassie walked inside, a guard dragging a maid.

“She’s the spy,” Cassie murmured carefully.

“Kill her” Ann ordered and the maid cried out, pleading for her life.

“I can help you get word from Mario! Please spare my life!” The maid pleaded and Ann stopped them.

“How do you think you’re useful to me?” She demanded.

“I can give Mario false information and help you get more information from him… I’m also useful in one way, please spare my life!” The maid pleaded and Ann burst into laughter.

“Do you think I can’t get someone else who would do a much better job than you? You’re totally worthless to me. Your life means nothing to me. Kill her in front of everyone and she’ll serve as a lesson to others, send her body parts to Mario as a warning” Ann instructed and Cassie nodded before heading out with the maid.

“Ann, you’re exercising too much control. You need to stop killing everybody, sometimes capturing them is the best…” Roberto trailed.

“Isabelle just sent me a message, if she keeps getting on my nerves, I wouldn’t hesitate to kill her… I don’t give a fuck if she’s your daughter, I’ve sacrificed a lot and I can’t stop now” Ann vowed and Roberto placed a slap on her face.

“If any hair falls from her head, you’ll have yourself to be blamed for it. What has come over you?! Are you insane! Don’t you have any feelings, you’re becoming a monster!” Roberto ranted and Ann laughed hysterically, cackling like a witch.

“It is all your fault! You’re making me insane? I’ve been working my ass off for weeks, covering up your dirty secrets, you’ve embezzled too much money that would affect the country greatly”

“Mario is hell bent on destroying you and I’m saving your ass but all of a sudden you think I’m becoming a monster? What lady would be very supportive of you right from day one?” Ann shouted.

“Stop saying it’s my secret, you’ve always been part of the conspiracy, we committed those crimes together, should I talk about the way you’ve been taking money out of the country?”

“Should I talk about the foreign accounts you have scattered all over with millions in them! Is it the drug lords you’ve given permission to import and export drugs or the human trafficking that’s going on low key? You’ve been the worst president ever and if you get on my nerves, I’ll be more than ready to disclose all OUR SECRETS!” She flung at him.
