THE NANNY AFFAIR

The next morning, I woke up and saw the ongoing preparation of Riya’s’ engagement, speak of the devil, she hisses the moment she took a glance at me. Drama queen!.

Elena was a lot pleased about the whole celebration, whereas the lady who is supposed to be her daughter wasn’t, Riya for some reason tried earlier to back down from the alliance.

(8:00pm)

The subsequent day, precisely eight in the evening, the whole Mansion was filled with lots of guests who veered in and out with gifts.

I watched by the side and saw the whole family smiled and welcomed everyone in, in the eyes of the society, they were one happy family but behind, all danced in shadow.

A call came through my phone, as I rushed upstairs to answer it, I walked past Riya’s room and caught her crying alone, I know it wasn’t my business, I just cannot stand seeing tears in her eyes, and before you think anything, no! I am in no way falling in love with her. (Frowns).

Riya? Are you okay?”.

Immediately she tried to stop the tears from falling, veering her eyes away from mine.

“What are doing here, why can’t you leave me alone?”. She says turning her back on me.

Urgh! Riya has a way of saying the wrong thing at the wrong time, I still don’t understand, how her brain works, evidently if we use the right side of our brain to think, Riya uses her left, because she can’t possibly say something good.

The call I was supposed to answer but stopped all because of Riya, came in again, and as much as I’ll love to speak with her, this was much important, I veered out as she turns and watched me leave.

I walked past and stumbled on a conversation that was meant to a secret.

Curiously I took heed of David’s words to a certain lady, who unfortunately I wasn’t able to see her face.

David says in an aggravated tone, “please don’t tell me that, you do know why I am marrying Riya, and pretending all day acting stupid”.

I had no time to waste, quickly pulled out my phone and recorded everything, at this might help Riya a lot and finally put an end to this engagement she’s anticipating for.Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

I veered closer to gain more information, accidentally a vase fell to the floor gaining David’s attention.

“Who is it?” He says moving towards my direction, before I get caught I left from there, heading to the party.

Afterward, Riya walked downstairs wearing a royal blue dress and a crown on her head, she looked like a princess going to meet her prince but in this case, her prince was two-faced.

Elena walked beside her and brought her to her soon-to-be husband.

She signaled as the rings were sent out and given to them, with a frown, she pushed a hurtful Riya, who veered and slowly moved to put the ring on his fingers.

I had two options, it was either I get Riya engaged to a man like David or stop this alliance. Before I could say a word, Riya retaliated by tossing the ring to the floor.

“I am sorry ma! I am not going to get engaged to David”.

Everyone at the party gasped out surprised by her words, I Knew Elena won’t just quietly listen to her without doing anything.

In a fit of rage, she raised her hand to slap her, but veered to the side, when she noticed her hands were held back against her will.
