“What’s wrong with Kehinde? I mean, he did not even give any respect and just left rudely”. Temitope said. She scowls at her mother. She told her mother she over pampered her son. Olasile felt insulted by her daughter. She told her to keep quiet and that she treated her children the same way. So if she over pampered K, it only means Temitope was the same.
“I am not like him! How can his fiancée announce her pregnancy and he just leaves without even looking at her?”. Temitope said yet again. She stood up and walks away abruptly. Austin went after her. The mother remained at the dining. She eyes Ify in disdain.
“Since you are pregnant, you shouldn’t get up as well. Eat to your satisfaction and even ask for more. The baby needs to be healthy. You have done well to keep your place by my son. Just know Kehinde will still marry a second wife and she will be from a family of equal class”. Olasile said to Ify.
“I sure did save Lanre from all this banter. Too bad she does not know what I’m doing for her and she’s still fighting me”. Ify said out loud for Olasile to here. Olasile became curious.
“What are you even talking about?” Olasile asked.
“Your PA, she was my best friend until your son came along and ruined it. I’m both marrying him to pay for ruining my friendship with Lanre and to save my best friend from a marriage that will fail and leave her frustrated. I mean, you do not seem like you will make a good mother in-law unless she’s your class!” Ify said. She wipes her mouth with a napkin, stood up wanting to leave as well.
“It does not seem like it! Who saves a person from trouble by gladly entering into it? If you were saving her, you would find away to save yourself as well. You should sit down and finish your food. My grandchild should not suffer as well”. Olasile said. She hissed stood up and left leaving Ify alone in the dining.
“What a perfect family dinner”. Ify muttered. They barely sat together for an hour, everybody was gone. She wondered if K went after Lanre since he left after Christian and Lanre. She shook her head telling herself it doesn’t matter. At least she already has a grip on him. Judging from the way things went, K would have no other option but to marry her whenever he is asked. And Lanre would leave K alone. She would also stop trying to ruin her as well.
After making all these analysis, Ify sat back down and finished her food with joy in her heart. She would call her aunt later to celebrate with her.
At first she was going to just go on with the engagement and leave him afterwards, but seeing her Lanre had rejected him but wanted him after finding out he is the Governor’s son, she got obsessed. Lanre always wants the good things and they seem attracted to her, but this time she would be the one getting it.
