Engagement V

Sounds of invigorating claps was heard through out the room, everyone was happy for the couple...the young mistress who were busy crying moments ago wiped their tears and clapped.

Laila gazed at her daughter with a smile on her face, ' finally she was engaged and soon to get married, her daughter was going to leave her here all alone very soon ' she couldn't help but burst into tears thinking like this...she had loved her right from a little and had fulfilled all her wishes, she remember when she ( Callie ) would always come to her and mumble in a tiny voice

" Mama I want that dress "

" Mama I don't want to lick ice cream "

" Mama you look so pretty today "

" Mama put me to bed "

It was always like that, right from inside the womb she had to fight to survive with her sister and had come out very frail and weak...right there and then she had vowed to care for her also fulfilling all her requests, now her little girl was gonna leave her very soon.

Frederick couldn't help but shake his head looking at his wife who was busy sobbing like a child, pulling her into his embrace...he continued patting her back at a steady pace...he also felt his eyes sting but he brushed it off.

Everyone walked towards the couple and congratulated them one after the other;

" Congrats on your engagement "

" Congratulations buddy "

" Congratulations child "

" Congratulation young master, young mistress "

" Congratulation CEO "

From every nook and cranny everyone came to congratulate both couples who were brimming with smiles, Kylie who was gently sipping from her wine glass...pulled out the USB Drive from her bag and handed over to Nathan, Nathan gazed at the USB and nodded....beckoning onto someone who was hiding in the shadows, he handed over the USB to him and tilted his head to the stage and the person nodded and moved to do is job without being noticed.

Kylie gazed at the couple with a glint in her eyes, sipping her drink one more time...she dropped the glass and pushed back the chair she was sitting on to stand up, standing up she stumbled towards the side a little feeling slightly dizzy.

Nathan abruptly held onto Kylie's shoulder who was about to fall down, holding her still for a second he asked

" are you alright you seem dizzy and you look slightly pale " with worry clouding his gaze and face.

" I'm fine you don't have to worry about me, I guess I got a little tipsy there " Kylie said cocking her head to the table...pointing to the glass of wine, she had consumed.

" Okay that's better, I was worried though " Nathan muttered underneath his breath.

" Did you say something " Kylie asked and Nathan nodded in denial.

" Okay, can you let go now "

" am not holding onto anything "

" My shoulders dimwit " Kylie remarked pointing to the hands on her and he quickly removed his hand from shoulder, clearing his throat awkwardly.

After he removed his hands, he trailed after Kylie who was walking to the stage to congratulate where the couple's we're being congratulate for their engagement.

Getting there Kylie stepped forward with a smile and amusement dancing in her eyes, she held onto her sister and lulled her into a hug.....with a smile dancing playfully on her lips.

Nathan who was trailing behind her, stopped and just nodded his head in reply to the greeting of others surrounding the couple..Kylie pushed Callie away from the hug and mumbled a

" Congratulations Sister, brother in law " she added turning her head to stare at the both of them...she added again " and also a very happy engagement life to you guys, I hope you last together forever "

Liam who was looking at Kylie with an expression for a long time now, said with a confident smirk on his lips after eyeing Nathan fit a while

" I guess you still haven't gotten over your love for me, so you can here to pester us but too bad....we are already engagement " Liam said holding up their hands and flashing their hands in front of Kylie, someone looking from the sideline would think they are having a pleasant conversation with the smile on their faces not knowing fire was brewing between them.

" What a joke! " Kylie said bursting into laughter at Liam's remark " what's make you think I still have feelings for you, a scumbag like you " she added smiling ear to ear...

" I am neither my sister nor my parents who are obvious to your true facade or intentions, so back off while am still being nice else " Kylie whispered into Liam's ear after setting closer to him with a dangerous smile dangling on her lips, Liam who was being stared at closely by Nathan laughed and a glint flashed through his eyes.

" I will heed to your comment then sister in law " he muttered smacking his lips together, looking at Kylie who was back to smiling.

" don't call me sister in law, it gives me the creeps...just Kylie is enough " Kylie said stepping back towards Nathan, nodded her head and turned to Nathan saying

" Let's go dear " and Nathan who was busy behaving like a fool in love nodded and held onto her outstretched hand, walking away from there.

Callie turned her gaze from Liam to Kylie and to the silent young master Smith, she couldn't hear a thing that was said except the call me Kylie and congratulations....she was extremely confused at what was going on, what the hell were they saying so secretively.

Liam's eyes followed the two people walking away, he clenched his fist that was not holding onto Callie...it seems his carefully thought out plan was going to be ruined by some inquisitive brats, he had to leave from here as soon as possible.

" There can't ruin all I have walked for, for year's now...no...no I won't let them " he thought with a glint passing through his eyes.
