Different shades of Kathleen
California.
Kathleen's villa.
"What do you mean 'you can't find anything about her?" Kathleen questioned incredulously.
"I've searched, President..." Her assistant replied with a bow.
"So, did she disappear into thin air?" Kathleen was in a state of disbelief.
Just to find a measly slut and for days now they have been searching.
Did she disappear?
"Keep an eye on my father. I'm sure she will visit him again. If she does, I want you to tail her." Kathleen waved her hand dismissed 'him'.
She sighed when her assistant left.
Such incompetence...
Or maybe the lady was hiding from her?
Either ways, she believed in her assistant...
The lady would be found soon...
===============
Rita sighed when she left the villa. She got into her car and drove towards her house.
That was close...
How could she be told to find 'herself'?
What a ridiculous situation...
She would continue beating around the bush... She couldn't allow Kathleen find about the truth...
Alexander....
Kathleen...
Soon enough, she was going to end them soon enough...
***************
Kathleen was so annoyed. She hadn't been happy for sometime now.
"Is it bad to crave happiness?" She murmured to herself.
She only wanted to be happy. However it seemed like an impossible feat...
On one part, Henry was doing his bit in annoying her.
On the other part, her own father was giving her heart attack.
Wow...
She picked her phone and dialed her assistant's number.
"Have you gone far?... Book a flight for me to Los Angeles.." She hung up.
She was fed up with this whole place. She had to go back to where she wouldn't worry much.
She left her work and came down to California,just so she could spend sometime with her fiance. But he didn't appreciate her gesture. What did he do instead?
Dampen her mood. Made her feel useless...
She was going to get back at him.
'Just wait and see Henry. I will make you pay...'
==============
Los Angeles.
Kathleen walked into her villa with a smile.
Home, sweet home...
She whipped her phone out and dialed Henry's number.
'Ring... Ringgggg...'
After a few rings, he picked up the phone.
"Were you going to reject the call?" Kathleen sneered immediately he picked up the call.
She placed the call on loud speaker, dropped it on the table and plopped herself on the sofa behind her.
"Why are you calling me by this time of the night, Kathleen?" His baritone voice boomed.
"Do I need a time to call my fiance?" Kathleen chuckled as she lay down on her back.
From now on, she was going to be indifferent to him. She wasn't going to allow him affect her anymore...
Since he wanted to play with her feelings,she wouldn't give him a chance to.
On the other hand, Henry could sense a change in her voice. But he wasn't bothered at all. He just got back from work when she called him.
"What do you want?" He asked impatiently.
"Want? Oh, I want nothing." Kathleen chuckled.
She knew he was getting irritated already. But was it any of her business?
"Then why are you calling me? I'm busy..." Henry wanted to hang up, when her voice stopped him.
"Busy? Hah.. What a funny joke, Henry. Between the both of us, who's schedule is more cramped?" Kathleen scoffed.
Henry didn't respond. He knew where she was going...
"You don't want to talk? Well that's your business. I have the most busy schedule. Do you think managing a whole conglomerate is a joke?" Kathleen paused for breath. She could feel her blood boiling...
"What are you trying to say? I'm tired Kathleen,I just got back from work." Henry calmly said.
"From now on Henry, do whatever you want to do. You are free to. You can even dispel the engagement." Kathleen finally said.
Henry was stupefied; what was she insinuating?
Was she laying a bait for him?
That wouldn't work... His IQ was more than that.
"If that's all, I will be hanging up now." Without waiting for her response, he directly hung up.
Kathleen smirked... The game just got started... She wasn't going to beg for his love anymore.
But as for Quinn, if she dared to near her fiance, she was going to face her wrath.
Why did she even come back?
She was going to show them what she capable of...
How dare those two play games with her.
For Pete's sake, who would be engaged to someone for eight years without getting married to the person?
Did Henry think he could continue playing games with her?
She was fully ready for them...
She suddenly thought of something,and her mood changed...
Tomorrow was her mother's death memorial...
Mom...
If her mom were here, would her father have cheated on her?
Up till now, she couldn't believe that her father who looked strict and respectable, could pick a random girl and fuck her. Disgusting...
But wait, was she really a random girl?
What if they had been having an affair long before her mother's death?
Different thoughts crossed her mind,to the point she almost got a migraine...
She massaged her temples tiredly.
The events of the past few days were beginning to take it's toll on her.
She had been stressed mentally and emotionally.
Seeing one's dad fuck one's age mate, how did that sound?
She decided to get a bed rest at a hospital.
She dragged herself to her bedroom...
After taking a bath, she sat before her vanity table...
Looking herself through the mirror, she almost cried...
The lady in the mirror had dark circles... Freckles even covered her skin.
She sighed..
She had been ignoring her skin lately. A woman's greatest fear was to look ugly.
She totally ignored her skincare routine. What was wrong with her?
Well...it wasn't so late.
Since she wanted to act indifferently to Henry, she had to make him feel a little bit of regret.
Looking beautiful was definitely one of it, no?
From now on, a new Kathleen was going to surface..
The indifferent Kathleen.
She chuckled at the thought of it..
