Painful seduction

Immediately Cathy was out of sight, Axl held Nelly by her hair. She tried to scream out in pain but he used one hand to cover her mouth and the other held tight to her hair.

Slowly she was able to use her elbow to hit him in the groin. The first hit had no effect on him but she continued until he couldn’t control the agony he was experiencing.

He freed her hair and left immediately to the room before she could say anything or throw him punches.

Nelly who had narrowly escaped death squatted and breathed hard to regain her breath before rushing inside the room to get her purse, she got it and left to meet Cathy who was waiting impatiently for her.

” What took you so long?” She asked but noticed how red her face was, ” why do you look so flushed? What happened.”

” Your loving husband tried to kill me.”

” What?”

” Forget about him Cathy. Let’s go and see the fashion manager. You will take care of him later.” Nelky suggested, safe wasn’t ready to start up a fight with Axl.

At least not now, she thought.

She nodded as she rubbed her shoulders to assure her everything will be fine. All she needed was to talk to the fashion manager and also talk to Alexaia Bachman.

“Why are you absent minded Cathy?” She asked, Cathy was just staring absent minded at the streets.

” I’m fine Nelly, I’m just worried about someone.” She muttered.

” Who?”

” The lady who came with my husband’s best friend.”

” The pretty lady? With Dementrio?”

” Yes…her name is Alexia Bachman…that’s who she claimed to be.”

” I thought she was his girlfriend?”

” Nahhh…he claimed she’s not and I believe. There’s another girl he talked about with so much love in his eyes.” She explained.

“Since when did you become an expert in knowing someone who is in love?” Nelly asked, a bit surprised.

“Stop it Nelly , I am a woman and I know when a man is in love.” She said with so many smiles.

Nelly was glad to see her happy and decided to continue the conversation.

“But you claimed Dementrio is a hard man.”

” Yes…that makes it easier to know when he’s in love.”

” Can I help you? I can find info about her then tell you. I will do that in secret.”

“Will you do that for me?”

” Yes…I will do that. I can talk to a secret agent or I can do it myself.”

“Which do you prefer?”

” I will do it myself and also get a secret agent too.”

Cathy parked the car immediately and hugged Nelly so tight. Nelly who had always wished for this kind of company embraced her sister too.

“After we talk to the manager then I will go to her house.”

” Do you know her address? Should I ask Demetrio?” Cathy asked a bit confused.

“You forget I work in the Newspaper company, I can always get her information and then talking to Dementrio about it will be suspicious.”

“Then it’s settled,”

Cathy started the car and drove to the fashion company. The companies were the makers of the fashion brand she wore. If there was anyone who could give her more information about the fashion brand then it was “L’Oreal fashion Hub”

It was the first time she was here, as a billionaire wife she had the privileges of her clothes being delivered to her house.

Cathy and Nelly weren’t impressed by the magnificence of the building, they were used to seeing more buildings that were beautiful and more luxurious.

“Good day Ma’am Cathy. We have been expecting you.” A young man dressed in a suit said as he bowed first to Cathy and to Nelly.

From how Nelly dressed, he knew she was among the rich ladies too and he had to respect her

The young man dressed in a black suit snapped his fingers and another man appeared, he bowed too and offered to take the handbags which belonged to Cathy and Nelly. They were both led inside the company, straight to the Manager’s office.

The manager was a Man in his middle 40’s, she had also not seen him but with the way Nelly and the manager conversed they looked like they had known each other.

“I didn’t know you were coming, Miss Nelly. I would have gotten the finest jewelry for you.”

“Let it be. We have come for another reason.”

“Please be seated. What will you like?”

“The usual will be okay.”

He rang a little bell on his table and gave instructions on tea before he returned to the.

Before the they could start the conversation, the tea was ready and served. Nelly took hers first and sipped, Cathy also took hers. She was surprised that the sugar content was exactly how she wanted.

“How did you get the right amount of sugar?” She asked.

” Miss Nelly told me…”

” Let’s forget about it, Cathy, please can you ask him what we can do here ?” She interrupted, stopping him from spilling the truth.

Cathy smiled, Nelly really cared about her

” Have you heard of the brand Caroline?” She asked the manager.

” Yes…but it’s not functioning. It was owned by Mrs. Chester.” He revealed.

Cathy was taken aback, she was shocked and amused. Did Mr. Anderson lie to her when he said her mother never sold any of the fashion clothes she made?

“I need more answers to this. Were the clothes made by my mother?”

“No ma’am. We personally made the clothes but she gave the designs but we got orders and stopped after her death.”

“Who gave you the orders?”

“It was an unknown caller who threatened to burn down the company.”

“Is it possible for someone to have a brand of the clothes?”Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

“No .. my staff personally destroyed everything. Only the family members have the brand of clothing.” He explained.

“Are you really sure about this?”Cathy found this amusing because Mr. Anderson who she had expected the truth from lied to her again.

“I can’t possibly lie to you. I have the records of everything ma’am.”

“Fine…let me see the records.”
