The Next Day, just as she promised to her beloved Duke, she woke up early just to prepare his smoothie and a special breakfast. She works hard to plan for his meal. She made a full course meal just for her husband. It takes two hours for her to prepare everything since she's not a fast chopper and not a chef. But everything is perfect.
"Your grace," The Butler and the maid that was attending them bowed at her.
"Good morning." She greeted him.
"Good morning, Duchess Victoria." They said at the same time. "Uh, we were about to prepare your meal but you said that you'll prepare it."
"Yes, I promised to my husband." She said,
"We will prepare for Duke Kenzo's birthday today. Would you like to request anything?"
"H~His birthday?" She creased her brows, completely dumbfounded.
"Yes, Madam. It's his 25th birthday."
Victoria froze as she stared at them.
"Isn't it next month?"
The two looked at each other, puzzled. Victoria turned off the stove and removed her apron as she left the kitchen. She went directly to the gym where her husband was busy shaping up. She faced him while he's running on the treadmill and crossed his arms.
"What do you want?" She sounded cold. He looked at her.
"Hey, love."
She frowned and exhaled slowly.
"It's your birthday." She mumbled. "What do you like?"
"You." He winked.
"You didn't tell me." She said coldly. He pressed the button on the treadmill, stepped down, and scooped her face.
"I'm sorry. I thought you knew." He kissed her lips.
"Yeah, I did. But it was next month on the same day."
"Sorry," he kissed her cheeks softly and then her forehead.
"I'm going to shop today, I want to know what gift you want."
"I want you." He grinned. "Nothing else."
"I'm serious."
"I like anything as long as it comes from you."
"Really?" She pouted.
"Yes." He kissed her lips. "Let me relax a bit so I could eat with you… or you." He winked.
She sighed and wrapped her arms around him. She noticed one thing. He doesn't own a wristwatch and she wanted an automatic wristwatch for him.
"I love you." She whispered.
"I love you, more and more."
"You are sexy." She giggled. He lifted her and squeezed her.
"You smell famishing. Want to shower with me?"
"Yes! I'll just finish the last dish and you should relax first."
Stacey was notified that it was Kenzo's birthday so they were invited to his birthday celebration tonight. Then, Victoria called her and weaned at her on what type of clock was best for Kenzo. Stacey grinned and she always wanted to give Maverick a watch. But somehow, he's probably hella rich now that he has lots of watches now.
"I think I have to buy something for him." She glanced at the time and groaned. "Damn, I don't have time." She proceeded with working on the animation and she will sneak out later so her boss won't tell her to overtime.
She continues with her work when her phone chimes. She reached it and answered Caleb's call.
"It's Kenzo's birthday! You better not be late." Caleb said almost aloud.
"I know. I am quickly finishing things up here. Also, I don't have a gift yet. Care to pick up something for Kenzo? I'm going to order it today."
"Sure, sure. However, I am escorting Kai to the airport today."
"Oh, too bad. She won't be at the dinner."
"Yeah, I know. See you later!"
Then, her phone chimes again. She reached her phone as an email from Jenny Morgan of Edward Company sent her photos of the villa and asked if they could meet. She sighed and thought for a while. She called the woman and checked the date.
"What can I do for you, Miss Morgan?" Stacey stood from her seat as she turned off her computer and reached for her wallet. She left her cubicle.
"I have something to give to you. I am currently in the café just in the building of your company."
"I'll be there."
She sighed and shook her head. Just what they want now? At the time that she reached the café Secretary Morgan stood and extended her hand to her. She shook it and the woman gestured to the seat.
"Is it alright that I order you the strawberry milkshake?" She asked as Stacey looked at the creamy strawberry and nodded.
"What can I do for you?" She asked and sipped on it.
"Well," Secretary Morgan extended a few files to her. "I already spoke to Mr. Caleb Tanner and we will install new security in your house."
"What?" She exclaimed. "Is he supposed to ditch me already? Why does he keep getting involved?"
"Well," Secretary Morgan pursed her lips. "He wants to protect you."
"Wait ~~" She reached her head. "He said clearly that he doesn't want to get involved with me because it's his way to protect me~~but then," Stacey scoffed. "But then, he kept getting involved."
"I understand your frustration, Miss Tanner. Please accept it and give us your consent."
Stacey rolled her eyes and checked the information and signed it.
"Okay, this is the last time. And if he wants to add another, he should come and just take me. So, he won't have problems with fixing shits anymore." Stacey tried hard to control herself. "I'm sorry, Miss Morgan. I wasn't angry with you. I was angry at that asshole. And yes, I know his position now, but still, he's an ass."
Secretary Morgan tried hard not to laugh but she smiled at Stacey.
"Thank you, Miss Tanner.
Shanghira Shopping Center
Victoria wanted to be normal today. So, she had a driver and one bodyguard which she insisted on not to follow them around and only keep their distance. She's wearing a normal t-shirt and denim shorts and sandals with a sling purse. She wanted to act normal like herself. It is what she asked her grandfather and it was granted. She had her cap on and sunglasses on as she roamed around the expensive mall, having cash with her and a credit card.
She chose the Shanghira Shopping Center which is thirty minutes drive from Lwazi. She simply wanted to get away if ever she met up with someone she knows, no one would get in her way. She was happy and looked around at the Shanghira Shopping Center which is dope and full of expensive things. She couldn't shop in an area like this and the same with Etrama Center since it was so~so expensive. But everything is high quality and high class. Now for an expensive customized automatic wristwatch.
She entered the shop as her eyes widened at the costs. But she could afford such a thing. She has savings and she will buy anything for her hubby! She looked around as the sales lady watched her and she noticed the gentlemen's wristwatch.
"Can I see that please?" she asked the lady as the sales lady smiled and bowed her head.
"This is our latest design. It's limited to five, Ma'am. It's not quite expensive but it's automatic." The woman took out the watch from the glass and showed it to her. Her eyes widened and checked every side.
"This will be perfect for my hubby." She mumbled. "I'll take it." She smiled as the sales lady nodded.
"Would you like to wrap it up?"
"Yes, wrapped it up beautifully." She smiled and nodded at the lady.
"I think you shouldn't let this woman scam you." A familiar voice said and when she turned her head to the owner of the voice, her day just wasn't going to be better.
"Katarina," Victoria mumbled and she looked at the woman with her. A new friend.
"Lady Vienna, did you know that my stupid sister married a beggar?" Katarina told her.
"She did?" The Lady Vienna who looked familiar exclaimed. "Well, I thought that your family is way better." Lady Vienna rose her brows.
"Lady Belmont, our family is perfect. It was until this girl came out of nowhere. My mom didn't even give birth to her and yet she was there to ruin everything."
Belmont? Now Victoria knows that it was a Lady from Belmont. An aristocrat.
"How can you pay that when you have no job?" Katarina asked. "Or your gigolo husband would pay for it?"
Victoria gritted her teeth and stepped forward.
"Don't you ever say that my husband is a gigolo? He only slept with me his entire life."
"Oh, really?" Katarina laughed as Lady Vienna creased her brows.
"Is there such a man that was a virgin before marriage? Isn't it the other way around?" Lady Vienna sounded sarcastic.
At the moment, Victoria's heart was raging. She's angry toward Katarina for ruining her day and the most painful part was~~the mother she knows didn't give birth to her? Then what is she?
"I am sure that grandma will disown you soon. She just took you in because she pitied you. Your mother is a whore who seduced my father. Keep that in mind, Victoria."
She frowned at Katarina as her hand started shaking.
"What? What are you talking about?" Victoria asked.
"Are you filming this?" Katarina glanced at her friend who was filming Victoria. She glared at it. Then, Katarina stepped forward. "Yes, your life will be known around. You are an illegitimate child from the maid who seduced my father, and you married a beggar by cheating on your ex-fiance and you were kicked out from your job." Katarina took out cash from her pocket. "Here, I think this will feed you for at least a month?"
They laughed at her and she looked at the sales lady who didn't move and was confused.
"Pack it please," Victoria said as she bit her lips. She opened her purse to pay for it as the sales lady was about to move.
"Well, you are paying for it from your husband's sugar mommy?"
Victoria's tears started rolling. Her mind is a little fuzzy from her words. She sniffled and turned back. She could hear their laughter as she exited the store.
"Lady Victoria!" Her bodyguard followed her quickly.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
