The next day,
Emma stared at her outstanding formal outfit in the mirror _ putting on her long straight brown wig that looked similar to her before hair, she wore a same outfit as Ava, long straight office pants, a white tucked in tube top_ with a long jacket that reached her bottom line, her formal suit was in a beautiful yellow color, while Ava's was in a magnificent dark blue, adding black heels while Ava rocked in white heels, Ava tied her hair up into a ponytail, Emma left hers loos and free.
" Are you ready for this?."
Emma turned to look at Ava who smiled back with a sigh.
" Ready."
Today is the day Ava makes her appearance to the public as the other daughter to the Anderson family, today is the day she gets recognized and join the family business, mostly importantly, today is the day Emma addresses the media about Laura's accusations.
A black car was waiting outside their apartment, Betha got out of the car with a slight bow of respect to both sisters.
" It's finally a pleasure to meet you, Ms Ava Rose Anderson."
" Thank you, I've heard a lot about you from Emma here."
" Good things I hope." Betha said jokingly with a smile.
" Of course, I missed you so much, Beth." Emma hugged her.
" Like wise, everyone misses having you around work." Betha said, they all entered the car driving off.
" How's the situation?." Emma asked.
" A lot of reporters outside the building, but not to worry, there's security on all entrances and path ways." Emma gave a slight nod staring through the car window as they made their way there.
Z.N GROUP COR-OPORATION.
A black Jeep Wrangler and a black Benz behind stopped in front of Z.N Group, as soon as the two car doors opened, reporters rushed to the car that Alec, Zain and Lucas stepped out from, thanks to the security around, no reporter was able to get near the three gentlemen.
Reporter number 1: ' Mr Qinn, what do you have to say about what your wife, Laura Katlin Qinn said on live TV yesterday.'
Reporter number 2: ' what led you to divorce, Emma Rose Anderson?.'
Reporter number 3: ' is it true your previous ex wife, Emma Rose Anderson is still following you around despite your divorce with her?.'
Reporter number 4: ' are you and Emma Rose Anderson still seeing each other, despite being married to Laura Katlin?'
Reporter number 5: ' please say something, the public wants to know.'
Questions were being thrown to Alec from every side, Alec turned to the tall beautiful elegant black woman and said.
" I leave this to you, Neyomi."
" Of course, Alec, leave this to me." She stayed back while Alec and the others entered the building.
" Ladies and gentlemen, please calm down and I will gladly answer all of your questions one at a time please."
Neyomi was Alec's personal lawyer and advisor, she's been working under Alec for years now _ and he completely trusts her in everything she does, not only is she good with her job...but with words also, she's never let Alec down. She's always in a white suit ready for business, indeed, Neyomi is such a magnificent woman.
" As you know, Mr Qinn, as always meant well for both Ms Emma Rose Anderson, and Ms Laura Katlin, I'm a woman of justice and speak truth, I'm not taking sides _ but going to say things as they are to the general public today," Neyomi began." As we all know, Emma Rose Anderson, had been battling with a brain tumor that was detected at a later stage _when her tumor was fully advanced and was in a delicate critical condition, many doctors couldn't do anything about it because of its fully advanced stage, that's when Ms Laura Katlin stepped in, she offered to operate on Ms Emma Rose Anderson, but it came with a condition of course."
' a condition?' reporters started to murmur between themselves confused.
" The condition that, Ms Laura Katlin, gave to Mr Qinn was, that he divorces, Ms Emma Rose Anderson and marries her instead." The crowd whispered to one another in shock.
" That was the only condition she gave...if she was going to save, Ms Emma Rose Anderson's life, Ms Anderson didn't want to accept this condition, she begged her husband not to agree to Ms Laura's condition and instead spend the little time she has to live with her loving husband beside her, Mr Qinn, wasn't going to accept his wife to die, so he accepted Ms Laura's condition, in order to save Ms Emma's life, he agreed to marry her and divorce Emma. As you can tell, he didn't have much of a choice, it was either he divorce his wife, or watched her die."
There was a lot of confusion and murmurs between reporters, they were starting to question Laura whether she has a heart or not.
Meanwhile back at Anderson Group.
Security kept a safe distance demarcation between Emma and the reporters, she was ready to address this situation on her own.
Reporter number 1: ' Ms Anderson, what do you have to say after watching Laura Katlin go on live TV to address you?'
Reporter number 2: ' Is it true you're trying to destroy your ex husband's marriage with Ms Katlin?'
Reporter number 3: ' are you a homewrecker?'
Reporter number 4: ' please say something, the public wants to know '
Reporter number 5: ' if you and Mr Qinn are seeing each other behind closed doors, does that mean you're his mistress, are you okay with that?'
Emma kept silent for a while staring at the crowd, she gave a slight smile and answered all their questions in one sentence.
" Some circumstances arose that led us to part ways, but non of us... wanted to get a divorce, I am not a homewrecker...nor Alec's mistress, him and I have a beautiful baby girl, it's only fair for a father to see his daughter, and I won't allow Ms Katlin to bad mouth talk me to the public, when it was clearly her who destroyed my marriage, she was and still is desperate for Alec's love, but you know what, Laura, Alec, is in love with me_ and he'll always... love me." Emma grinned at the cameras, as though challenging Laura towards her own game." Aside from that, the most important reason I'm standing with you all here, is this woman beside me, Ava Rose Anderson, my elder sister _ who will be joining the family business at last." The reporters turned their attention towards Ava, throwing her with questions to where she's been hiding all this time, she simply said that she's been traveling the world and kept her life private from social media.
Emma and Ava proceeded inside when they finished addressing the media.
" Good morning Ms Anderson, I'm Jonathan, I will be your personal secretary from today onwards." A tall brown - skinned humble man introduced himself to Ava.
" Nice to meet you, Jonathan." Ava politely said.
" Your office is this way."
Ava smiled at Emma before going with Jonathan to her new office.
...
Laura threw items and broke things in her room, screaming and shouting on the top of her lungs_ all her anger and screaming eventually turned into a loud cry.
" How could you do this to me, Alec? I've done nothing but love you!, I'll kill her, I swear I will kill her, Emma, I'm coming for you."
Laura was out for blood, she was ready to make Emma disappear out of Alec's life for good, if she was going to be happy with Alec, Emma had to simply die. Her curly blonde hair was all ruffled up and tangled, she looked like a mad woman who's ready to attack anything that comes her way.
Hearing all the screaming and breaking of things made Lisa worry downstairs, she could only pray the situation doesn't get out of hand, Grange had informed Laura's parents and that they come to New York City as soon as possible, they would probably be here in two days time, but two days felt like a really long time to Lisa, something bad might happen in that two days, Lisa worried for Emma's life.
...
Z.N GROUP.
Once, Neyomi finished addressing the media, she went to Alec's office.
" How did it go?."
Alec asked resting his face on his knuckles.
" It went perfectly, you don't have to worry about a thing."
Alec gave a slight nod, as Neyomi excused herself to take her leave.
