Reyona’s Revenge

Reyona couldn’t believe she had been so blind that she couldn’t see him for the beast that he was.

She couldn’t believe she had entrusted her life and everything to a man who would stop so low to destroy her after all he had done to ruin her marriage.

When the elevator stopped at her floor, Reyona rose from her fetal position just as the elevator opened to reveal Charlotte on the other side.

“Ma…”

Reyona walked to the control panel and pressed the down button again and again.

Charlotte gaped at the tears on Reyona’s face. “Ma, are you…?”

The elevator had closed before she could complete her statement.

With only one location and motive in mind, Reyona walked out of the elevator door and went straight to the garage without waiting for the valet to get it for her.

She got into her Phytonic Blue BMW X3 and drove out of the garage as fast as she could.

In no time, she was driving up the lane that led to her house.

The home she had bought with her money and decided to put the names of herself and her husband on it.This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

It had been her wedding gift to him.

Of course, the bastard had no idea that that had changed already.

She had changed the name back to hers while putting other plans in place.

She almost couldn’t recognize their driveway with the clusters of news vans blocking it.

The rage she had been tamping down since she started driving overrode her reasoning as she parked behind one of the vans since she couldn’t get close to the house enough in order to park in her normal spot.

The extra walk she had to take did no good for her mood.

She could see the movements behind their curtains as she got close.

“Okay, we are about to start rolling. Everyone, get into your place. In 1, 2,… we are live!”

Reyona opened the door, and the extra light that flooded in made the man scowl at the unwelcome intrusion.

“Who is…”

“How can you start this without the main cast?” Reyona asked as she walked straight into the set they had turned her living room into.

They had turned her private space into a fucking showroom!

Main, fill, and back lights were all in place, in addition to the boom microphone and other gadgets they had set up for the shoot.

Her private home lit up like a carnival!

Despite how many times reporters had wanted to interview her about her personal life, she had always kept it out of the media.

To think the bastard had no hesitation in exposing her haven to the public eye!

Reyona had a struggle keeping in her rage at that point.

Yet, she managed it.

Even when she could see the opened door to the bedroom upstairs,.

Another setting like this had been made there as well.

She supposed they intended to get to that later.

The scene of infidelity must be well captured, after all.

The look of shock on Thomas’s face was priceless.

Everyone gaped at Reyona as she waved airily at Thomas with an acidic smile, and then she took the chair that was supposedly meant for him.

It was the chair facing the main camera directly.

********

Reyona could see the camera rolling, and she almost backed down from putting herself in public like this, but she firmed up her smile and looked straight into the camera.

“I have arrived, husband. Let’s get the show rolling.”

“Err,” the director, who had almost snapped at Reyona, looked from her to Thomas, then back to his crew.

“What are you doing here?” Thomas was finally able to talk after trying twice without much success.

Reyona raised her eyebrows at him.

“What am I doing in my home?”

“You…you have lost the right to be here. Ain’t you shameless?” Thomas blurted out as a sheen of sweat showed on his powdered forehead.

His fitting, stylish coat seemed too tight for him at that point as he reached for the tie at his neck and tried to loosen it.

Only that his hand came away empty because he didn’t have any tie on after all.

He had on an open-necked cream-coloured shirt under the coat.

He suddenly seemed to realise something and looked at his manager, who was gaping at the couple as if he were already looking for ways to spin this around.

“We need to stop this,” the manager said immediately to the director.

“We…are live already,” the director said in an apologetic tone. “Going off now would be…”

The head of the media crew signalled to the director that they were already getting comments.

Thomas’s manager saw that they had over 100, 000 views already, and many of them had started making comments.

Most of them were looking forward to how Thomas would handle his cheating wife, of course.

The manager quickly moved beyond the camera range to whisper to Thomas that shutting off the live session now would make him look bad.

“Spin this around,” he said urgently before moving back.

Reyona heard everything while she sat stoically facing the camera with an unwavering smile on her face.

The crew quickly brought another set chair as Thomas took the chair that was meant for the interviewer.

The interviewer looked poised and unconcerned.

If there was anything, Reyona could only detect a glint in her eyes.

The glint of someone who could see the potential of getting more scoop.

“Well, guess what? It is your lucky day,” Reyona thought acerbically.

“Mr. and Mrs. Lanoth, I must say it is a pleasure to have the chance to interview the two of you together today,” the young lady started.

“I am sure it is,” Reyona answered in a freezing tone, which made the lady’s megawatt smile dim a bit.

Thomas only scowled deeply and quickly rearranged his features when his manager gestured at him.

A little less chirpy, the interviewer continued, “Concerning the situation at hand…”

“You mean the situation where I was accused of cheating on my husband and he decided to capitalise on it? Oh yes, let’s talk about that.”
