Lanre Rejected Her Offer

“Madam, are you alright?” The workers came running to Lanre’s aid. They just could not stay back after hearing their boss calling for help. Even the customers tagged along.

“Are you alright?” They asked her. But instead of answering them, she beckoned on Pascal, another of her male worker to help her up. Then she asked Sharon to come help her massage her ankle.

Ify stood dumbfounded. She shook her head as of waving off the shock. “Lanre are you acting up to avoid me or something. Do you dare act like you broke your leg or sprained your ankle?” Ify asked. She was furious. Lanre mentally smirked.

“Hold on, are you the one that did this to her? Did you push her down or you set your foot for her to trip on? Tell me so I can know how you did it”. One of the customers asked. She looked like she will soon pounce on Lanre. Everyone present there loved Lanre and were ready to defend her.

“My madam does not look for trouble, but you dare to touch her”. One of the workers, Rita said. She charged towards Ify almost landing a slap on her. But Lanre who was standing with Aaron’s support asked her to stop.

“Stop!” Lanre yelled. Her left foot was almost hanging in the air, just a few inches away from the ground.

“Why? She should have touched me and spend the rest of her life in jail. I came with security and they are waiting outside for me”. Ify said. Lanre forced a bitter smile.

“Rita, apologise to her. She is the Governor’s son’s fiancée. You do not want to fight the governor of Lagos state”. Lanre said to Rita who had attempted slapping Ify.

“At least now you know who I am. Andy glad you finally accepted that Kehinde is mine”. Ify said. Then she told Lanre that she could still take the place of her chief bridesmaid. And if she was lucky, someone of great importance could end up falling for her.

Lanre rejected her offer. And Ify left without saying anything further. Lanre did sprain her ankle as a result of the force with which she fell. So everyone believed it was Ify who had caused it.

Before the end of the day, Ify was everywhere on twitter which is one of the most influential social media platform. It became a thread, The fiancée of Kehinde Adewale, son of the Governor of Lagos state Adekunle Adewale is an evil bitch”. In some thread, a story of how she pushed down an upcoming celebrity makeup artist causing a sprain on her ankle was what drew a lot of netizens attention. Actresses who already knew Lanre after getting to find out it was Lanre pushed up the story. It trended for days and drew the attention of the press.

The Governor could not stop the thread from trending since it was twitter of all place. The only way was to either pay for such news to be blocked out. Or turn the people’s attention away from Ify.
