Chapter 3
“Ivy, what are you doing in my room? Ryan said
“Hello, big brother, that is not a good way to welcome your little sister. Won’t you even hug me? Ivy said with pouty lips.”
“You know you are always welcome, Ivy, and I missed you, but I didn’t expect to see you in my room,” Ryan said.
“Well, I got back last night and went to see mom and dad. I came here this morning and, realizing you were not at home, I thought you had gone to the office only for me to see you coming in with a harlot.”
“Isn’t it too early, Ryan? Ivy said and rolled her eyes.”
She looked back at Iris, who was standing surprised, giving her a hard stare from head to toe.
“Ivy, this is Iris, my girlfr-…. Uh-m fiancee, and we are getting married”. Ryan stammered like a newborn learning to speak.
“Fiancee? Married?”
“Tell me you are joking, Ryan, since when did you even have a girlfriend? Not talking about a fiancee?” Ivy questioned
“Look, Ivy, it’s a long story I would explain later, ” Ryan said, rubbing his head.
“Hello Ryan, if she’s your new catch and you just wanna fuck her, just go ahead; she’s not worth the pretense.” Ivy said, still surprised.
“Excuse me, ma’am, but I am no Harlot. You heard Ryan, I am his fiancee”.
“Finally found her voice to talk. Oh, shut up, Harlot, so you can talk? Ivy barked.
“I know you are a spoiled brat with no manners; you have no right to call me a harlot.” Iris retorted
“Do you…. Ivy began; that’s enough now Ryan said.
“Iris You have no right to talk to my sister like that.
“But she’s th…iris cut in..
“Enough, haven’t I told you never to cut me while I talk? Ryan roared.
“Ivy, go to your room. I will come meet you there.”
Reluctantly, Ivy left, but not without giving Iris a warning look.
“That was my younger sister, Ivy, Ryan said. ” Okay, Iris replied sharply. Looking round the room to feed her eyes.
Ryan took a glass cup, poured out some whiskey, and gulped it all at once, giving a look like it burned through his throat.
“Do you care for a drink?” Ryan asked
“No, I am not interested,” Iris replied.
“Good, because I wouldn’t have given it to you,” Ryan replied.
Iris scoffed, “We are going to be married, and you are treating me like I don’t even exist. I am human, so show some empathy.”
“Who cares if you are human? Just do what I am paying you for and keep your mouth shut; moreover, I am doing you and your mother a favor”.
” We are going to see my parents get prepared before 7 p. m., “Ryan said.
Iris was about to sit on Ryan’s bed to rest her legs.
“Don’t you dare, Iris, ” Ryan barked. Iris flinched.
“You will keep standing until I say otherwise.”
With that, Ryan touched a button on the wall, and a knock was heard at the door . Come in, Ryan said.
A maid came in with her head bowed.
“Sarah take Iris to her room, prepare her, and teach her my ways. Whatever she does wrong, I will deal with you severely, understand?” Ryan asked.
“Yes, sir Ryan. Iris, surprised about what she just heard, gave Ryan a strong look and left with Sarah to her room.
“Welcome Ma Iris,”
“Please just call me Iris, ” Iris said and smiled.
“Okay, ma… sorry Iris, Sarah spoke.
“You look so beautiful, Ma iris… sorry Iris. If not for the color of your hair and I know Ma Ivy personally, I would have thought you both were sisters”, Sarah said.
“I sure don’t look like that spoiled brat.” Iris scoffed.
“I see you have had an encounter with her, which, from the way you sound, didn’t go well. Sarah said, smiling.NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
“God, she’s so annoying, Sarah, Iris said.
“You will get used to her, Iris; she is a sweet girl too, with a coconut head, Sarah said.
They both laughed softly.
“I can’t get used to her; I would avoid her instead”. Iris said.
“Only if you can,” Sarah mumbled.
“Since you are my personal maid, you need to tell me about Ryan and his family. I will be going to see his parents tonight. I don’t even know how I should look. Iris said walking towards wardrobe she opened it.” Wow, she exclaimed.
“Are all this for…, Sarah cut her short ” all for you Iris.
Iris couldn’t find any of her personal stuff in the wardrobe; she saw her favorite designer collections, from dresses and shoes to bags, accessories, and perfumes.
“OMG! Is that a Christian Louboutin, VERSACE, TOM FORD, DIOR, no way MARC JACOBS !!
Iris couldn’t keep calm; she lost her composure and screamed. She had always wanted their real designs and possibly collaborated with them, but she couldn’t afford it, but she has it now for free.
It was like a dream about to come true for Iris.
Iris had already started drafting how to turn the dresses into something new and different, but with the same original designer dress..
Sarah loved how a happy soul she was and went to prepare Iris bath.
“Iris, please go take your bath. Lunch will be ready soon, Sarah said.
“Iris, Ryan is very strict and likes things to be done how he chooses; don’t keep him waiting, don’t lie to him, and lastly, always look expensive and classy.”
“Please try not to upset him; just follow all the things I said so we can both be fine.” Sarah said that and left.
Sarah Iris called her back. “Please get me a glass of water,” okay, Iris.
“Thank you, Iris said undress and went into the bathtub. The water was so refreshing she thought about her new life. I hope for the best, she said to herself.
While bathing, she heard a creaking sound from the door. “Who is there? Sarah? Sarah, is that you?” Iris said, but got no response.
She heard the sound of shattered glass.
Hurriedly, she came out of the bathtub. Before she could think of taking her towel, she rushed out of the bathroom, scared of who it would be, forgetting that she ran out naked…..
