~AT THE MARKWILL'S MANOR
'' Alex ,you arrived just in time for lunch. Come here, I asked Chef Boujoir to make your favourite Italian dishes, hope you'll like it,''Alice said enthusiastically.
Alex enjoys italian dishes and it has been his favourite since childhood , so Alice thought of appeasing her favourite grandson with what he loves.
'' Yh sure Grandma .Besides it is just a meal so anything would do,'' Alex said while taking his seat.
The presence of Aaron and Aamen was enough to spoil his mood , talkless of Jiesebel who spends her time spouting nonsense which in turn annoys Alex. One of the reasons why he dislikes coming to their Family Manor is because of these vicious people. Their faces are enough to make his day worst. But what could he do? He couldn't deny his Grandma anything when she made that pityful look earlier. He had to cancel his meetings just to come entertain his enemies and annoying cousin.Though he supported Anastacia both financially and emotionally, he still found her annoying. Thus the best candidate for his annoying friend who seeked pleasure in teasing him non stop. But only time would tell if they are really soul mates cause those two are always on each others throats , either cursing or threatening each other. They always fight like cats and dogs, which in turn makes Alex wonder if they could actually spend a day without fighting with each other. '' They would surely burn the house if they were to stay in the same place,'' Alex thought sighing. Those two could literally be anything but lovers nor friends ,that was Impossible.
'' Is there a problem son? '' , Alice asked worried. She feared that her grandson might have disliked the dishes made by the chef with the number of times he was sighing, which made her panick cause Alex was a very picky eater.
His meals were cooked only by famous Chefs accross the world who had mastered good culinary skills and could make delicious dishes to his taste. He loved when everything screamed perfection and that became part of him. His hairstyle, his way of dressing, eating , walking , talking and even sleeping posture. He was literally obsessed with Perfection.
Daniel oftened teased him ,calling him Mr Perfect cause he is a perfectionist. He hates when things don't meet up to his expectations which makes it extremely hard to please him.
'' Nothing Grandma, the meal is edible'', Alex said taking a sip of his Orange juice.
"At what time will Ana's private plane land in the country? '', Alice asked Aaron . She felt that the atmosphere was too tense so she tried opening a conversation with the family.
'' Well it should have Landed an hour ago, so I don't get the reason why she still hasn't made it on time yet.'' Aaron said looking at his watch annoyingly. His daughter always makes him lose face infront of his mom, dad and insolent nephew with her punctuality issues. That girl would still be late at her wedding he whispered while sipping his wine.
'' Relax darling, she might be stuck in traffic. You know how busy the road is nowadays,so it's just normal she arrives a little bit late for lunch. It's not like she would miss dinner at the Marino's. '' Jiesebel said her last words gazing intently at Alex to see his reaction.
He was in turn unfazed by her words which made her click her tongue in annoyance.
'' Hey everyone ",Anastacia yelled alighting from her latest edition car. She was so breathtaking in her leather pants and crop top showing off her flat tummy . she had beautiful brown eyes just like her dad with an oval shaped face accompanied with plump pink lips . She had dyed her hair golden yellow, giving off the cute hot little blond vibe. She had an average height with an hour glass figure including a voluptuous chest and a tight ass . She possesed the body , charisma and charm of a model but unfortunately ,she wasn't in for such. With her looks , all guys were ready fall to her feet. She was the definition of temptation. her hips swayed whenever she walked, commanding Power and
authority.
" Hey Princess, I was beginning to get worried for your delay." Alice said hugging her sweet grand daughter.
" I got stuck in traffic but am here now", Ana said smiling. '' Hello big bros hope you didn't miss me much. Mom , dad how are you guys?" . Ana said feeling overwhelmed with their presence. Though she hates their perception, she still missed them cause they are her family afterall.
She proceeded in hugging everyone except her cold cousin who didn't accept hugs nor kisses.
" Where is grandpa? Wasn't he aware of my arrival?" Ana asked looking perplexed cause her Grandfather would never miss welcoming her home for any other thing in the world, so why isn't he there.
" Well he hasn't returned from his business trip yet. Maybe this evening cause he wouldn't want to miss our visit to the Marino's this evening," Jiesebel said smirking. She couldn't wait to see some drama unfold.
" I have a meeting to attend now, see you later", Aamen murmured drawing the attention of the elders.
" He finally said something. I was beginning to think he lost his tongue the whole time", Jiesebel said while eating her meal. She knew Aamen heard but ignored her words. She truly hated him and couldn't wait to finally kick him out of the family. She wanted all the properties for herself , such a greedy bitch she was. She would make sure to use her two children and husband to achieve her goals even if it meant for her to eliminate them. That's how selfish and greedy she was. A sly bitch waiting for the best opportunity to present itself then later on strike.
Aamen knew his mom hated him but he didn't understand why. She gave birth to him but it felt like she didn't . Since childhood Jiesebel had been nothing but a cold monster to him. She would punish him, starve him and even beat him when she had spent a bad day ,may be her gambling didn't go well as planned resulting to loss of huge sum of money, properties and jewelleries. He was her punching bag for years till he turned 16 . He detested the word love cause it was meant for the weak. He loved his mom but she didn't. He showed her his affection but she showed him pain. At first , he thought he deserved her beatings cause all mothers love their sons and that he was being a naughty kid , that's why his mom was hitting him but he later realised that his mom never truly loved him. He had craved for her love till he gave up. Love wasn't meant for him , it only made him vulnerable infront of his opponents and he didn't want that. His father was the only person he looked up to cause he wanted the man to be proud of his achievements hence he did everything the old man demanded of him with no complaint. He was indeed a tool used to attain objectifs and goals. But what could he do? He was just a helpless bastard indirectly seeking for love and acknowledgement from his family. Yet all eyes were on Alexander thus leaving him alone to fend for himself.
