Stephen was ready to go to work ,Cloe hadn't followed him to their bedroom ,he wondered what she was up to but he didn't call her to ask ,he thought that he was very lucky when he left the house without having Cloe create trouble of him.
It wasn't like Cloe wasn't around,she was much around and had been observing Stephen for a long while ,she wasn't planning to talk to him , she wanted him to get out of the house as soon as possible , she wanted to go bring Stephanie back and she didn't want him to know.
Stephen heaved a sign of relief when he got out of the house and they was no sign of Cloe,he thought he has annoyed her to the extent that she didn't want to see him but he would be shocked to know that his wife was very happy to see him leave ,Cloe made sure that Stephen's car drove away before she got back inside the house and took her hand bag and cellphone and also left.
Stephanie would know that she was the second in command, she will have to come with her whether she liked it or not and that mother-in-law of hers would learn to respect her , she would forbid her of ever shouting at her like she had done early.
Cloe found Patrick outside the house when she arrived,"father-in-law ,"Cloe called , Patrick was suprised to see her ,he wanted to ask her what she was doing there but he controlled himself,"Cloe,good morning,"Patrick greeted her ,"good morning ,"Cloe greeted back.
"Is mother-in-law inside?"Cloe asked ,"she is inside,"Patrick replied ,Cloe thanked him and got into the house , Patrick was aware that his wife was still very furious ,she didn't know why Cloe visited ,he followed behind her incase she created a scene in his house.
"What are you doing here?"Pauline asked the moment she saw Cloe inside her house,"can't you even welcome a guest in your house properly?"Cloe asked her ,"don't try to change the topic ,I asked you what you are doing here?"Pauline shouted ,Cloe really had guts ,she was angry with her and she dared to follow her to her house.
"I want to talk to Stephanie,"Cloe replied ,"why do you want to see her ?"Pauline asked ,she couldn't let her she her granddaughter no matter what ,if Stephanie decided to come back and live with them she would definitely support her decision.
"Just call her ,I want to talk to her ,it won't take long,"Cloe said ,she had already started to raise her voice.
"Who told you that you can yell at my house?"Pauline asked ,"who do you think you are ,you anger my baby and then come to yell at my house ,you are really something Cloe ,get out this instant ,you should remember not to step in here again,"Pauline said
"Am not moving an inch from here before I talk to Stephanie,"Cloe said , she looked around and decided to sit down and make herself comfortable, Pauline was about to hit herself on the wall because of anger , how dare she come to her house uninvited and even sit on her sofas.
Stephanie who was upstairs heard her grandmother and Cloe shouted ,she decided to go and hear what was happening,"I heard you saying that you wanted to talk to me , you can say whatever you what to say and then leave, don't try to annoy grandma anymore,"Stephanie said .
"You are you so mannerless , can't you greet me first?"Cloe asked her,"why should she greet you , don't do you think will be added to her that she doesn't have if she greets you?"Pauline asked he,"you really dotes on her , don't you?"Cloe went ahead and asked.
"Of course I do does on her very much,who else did you want me to dote on , you?"Pauline asked her , she would be stupid if she doted on someone as vicious as Cloe.
"If you don't have anything to say to me ,it would be best if you leave,"Stephanie said to her,"am not going without you , I come here so that I would bring you back home,"Cloe said,"she isn't going with you so it's better that you leave,"Pauline said.
"Who said that she isn't going ,am not leaving without her,"Cloe replied ,"I know my way back home , do you think that am a two year old little girl who doesn't know her way back ,I come here on my own accord ,I will also leave on my own accord ,you can't force me to go with you,"Stephanie declared ,yes ,she was going back but she wasn't going together with Cloe.
"You have heard what she had said , can you leave now or should I force you to leave,"Pauline asked ,Cloe stared at he as if she wasn't understanding what she was saying ,it was like Pauline wasn't speaking a human language.
"Stop staring at me like that , I had just asked you to leave ,which part of my statement didn't you understand so that I can explain myself probably for you to understand,"Pauline asked.
"I understand you very well of course , you don't have to explain anything to me about what you said earlier but I would like you to explain to which extent you have brainwashed Stephanie?"Cloe went ahead and asked.
Pauline was about to answer Close when Cloe's cellphone rung,she looked at the caller's ID and discovered that it was her husband calling,why was he calling,she wasn't aware that Patrick has already called him and asked him to ask his wife to leave his house immediately and wait until she was invited.
"Cloe,am aware that you are in my parents house ,am on my way there ,let me not find you there else I will give you a beating that will make you forget your own name!"Stephen said when Cloe received the call and then hung up.
Cloe looked at her cellphone then looked at Pauline and Stephanie then left in a hurry , they looked at each,who has called her and what was she told, they didn't care.
