Chapter 161: I will be a great woman.

" Calcel is not someone that you can trust. " Rita talked.

" Look, Who knew he would love Alyssa after the way he made her to suffer. And then after Alyssa's death he suddenly got interest in May. And now you see, He is divorcing her. "

Then Mary said. " Marvis, Calcel is just like a beautiful drawing to look at. You can't do anything with him apart from admiring. Don't ever think that he can truly love anyone . stop defending him. "

Alyssa sighed not believing what these girls were saying..

" You guys told me that you loved Alyssa right ? " Alyssa asked.

" Yeah. And now does Alyssa come into this ? " Dora asked.

" If you all knew what May did to Alyssa before her death you would all not judge Calcel for divorcing her. " Alyssa said these words in anger and walked away.

Mary frowned. " Does she mean that this is not about the baby but Alyssa ? "

" I think Marvis knows something. " Rita said.

Alyssa had just reached the door when she met Jenny.

Jenny looked at her and noticed her wet eyes.

Alyssa quickly rubbed her eyes and smiled. " Ms Jenny ? " She called.

" Where are you going ? " Jenny asked.

" ..I am...it's nothing. I was just going to the washroom. " She lied.

" Ooh, You can go ahead now. " Jenny said and entered the kitchen.

" Good morning Ms Jenny.." They all greeted with low bows.

"Dora, Prepare Coffee for Mr Wong Calcel and May.." she said and left.

Dora hurried to do as she had been asked to.

At the moment it was David , Calcel and May were there waiting for the Lawyer.

The lawyer finally came and the couple signed their divorce papers.

Immediately after that May got up and said.

" I guess I have no more business with this family.." She said looking at Calcel but David gave in the answer.

" Don't worry May. You can now take your leave." He said.

May felt anger burn inside her. David who once welcomed her into this building was now kicking her out.

She gritted her teeth and didn't add another word on it.

She looked at David and then Calcel one more last time and after this she walked away.

May was just opening the door of her car when she saw Alyssa coming from the other side and she stopped.

" Hi...Marvis.." She called.

Alyssa heard and looked there to see May. She had tried not to enter the living room because she didn't want to see this woman again.

Alyssa chuckled and then walked to May.

May smirked and said . " I see, You are here going everywhere you want. Do you think that your stay in this Mansion will last ? " She asked.

" I didn't say so Ma'am. And I am not here to stay. " Alyssa answered.

" I know . David told me he brought you here because you were homeless. " May spoke.

" So ? " Alyssa asked.

" If you agree to keep your mouth shut and never talk about Alyssa and your baby again, I will give you a place to stay without serving as a maid here. " May suggested with her cold and mocking look.

" Oh, How generous. " Alyssa chuckled.

" But I am sorry May. I would rather spend my whole life as a slave in this house than accepting your favor.." Alyssa answered.

May laughed wickedly and said.

" Oh , Wait. Now I understand why you are here..its not actually because you are homeless but because you think that you can seduce Calcel and make him yours. " May lushed out.

" What nonsense is that ? " Alyssa asked.

" Don't act too wise Marvis. I have given a favor and i am wondering why you still want to be here as a servant who doesn't get paid then accepting my offer . " May said.

" May, I only do the house work to appreciate Mr Wong for allowing me to stay here. " Alyssa then walked to May and said.

" And one more thing, I am leaving this Mansion very soon. And I am going to become a great woman. I am not going to tell what exactly but wait on this Saturday, Whatever you will be..You will watch me.." Alyssa said and walked away.

May didn't understand this part of her story.

' What , Being a great woman. What does she mean ? ' May wondered.

Of course Alyssa was talking about the coming competition which she was sure of winning and becoming the ambassador of Hopkinsville Media.

Alyssa used the following day for prepare for the competition and the following was finally a Saturday.

She had informed David that she would leave the Mansion on a Sunday and he told her that it was alright.

These competitions begun at 8pm and the first participants begun their presentations. When Alyssa's turn came, She just got a microphone and stood behind the curtains.

The MC became confused when he called Marvis and no one appeared on the stage.

" Ms Marvis Thompson, We are calling you again. It's your turn..." He repeated himself.

" I am here.." Alyssa answered but when audience looked around there was no one to be seen.

" I am standing right here behind the curtains. " They heard the same voice speak again on the microphone and kept all kept silent.

" I am going to do my presentation from here. Please listen to this song carefully. " She said and then begun singing.

....How could everyone judge me by my looks

Before seeing me inside

Why do people judge me by my sweet voice

And yet say I am ugly when they look at me

Why do they say I am beautiful

Yet my isn't good for singing

But I wanna be everything

I want to look pretty, with a sweet voice and a good body

I wanna shine like star

They saw it's beautiful because they see it from q distance

Who has ever been close to it

What if it has thorns or even cracks that we can't see from a distance

...

She sung and completed her song which after people clapped for her .

Her voice and the rhythm of the song really captered them. It was soft , low yet loud and sharp at the same time.

Alyssa smiled when she heard the claps and noise from the audience.
