Chapter 60_ Clash 2
Tracy turned sharply to Anita ready to bark out but she swallowed her words back down staring at the sharp finger pointed to her face..Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“Not another word Tracy Brown! that’s the limit to our rivalry!.. and I hope in the future you’ll learn to stay away from me and also my husband!”
After saying all that, she stomped away seething in anger, she could literally tolerate anything anyone hurls at her but not when it comes to Aldrin, she’ll fight..
Tracy cursed after Anita who was long gone..
“The audacity she has! I’ll make her pay-
“What happened this time?”
Her back stiffened hearing Bruce’s voice behind her, she wondered if he had overheard their conversation..
She turned swiftly to him with a fake smile “Oh.. you almost gave me a fright”
Bruce arched a brow, he knew well enough that she was trying to divert the subject..
“Why was she here?”
Tracy cleared her throat trying to maintain the smile on her face, if Bruce knows what really happened he might yell at her or probably ask her to apologize to Anita.
“Forget about it honey.. it’s not a new thing between us, she was just upset that I got the latest pair of shoes while she didn’t”
Bruce forced a nod, he chose to believe what she said but deep down he knew that wasn’t the case at all..
“I heard someone was missing me.. and all they could do after seeing me was to stand still and gawk” He said in sarcasm..
Tracy sighed deeply and walked to him, she wrapped her arm around him..
“I thought as much… by the way where is Rihanna?”

Bianca strode down from the stairs with an annoyed expression on her face, her mum had been yelling her name nonstop for a while now. Just when she thought that she could get enough time to binge watch her favorite show..
“Bian-
Cassie looked up when she saw her daughter approaching, she waved the empty bottle of ketchup..
“We’ve ran out of ketchup.. will you be kind enough to get one?”
Bianca stared at the empty bottle which had something to do with Kelvin and Kiara, she groaned out at the thought of going out..
“Mum.. can’t you just go? and what’s up with all these foods? are we expecting a guest?” She inquired staring at the piping hot dishes on the kitchen’s island..
Cassie itched the back of her ear which Bianca found suspicious..
“I can’t go leaving Sandy all alone to make these much dishes”
Bianca sighed in defeat and left to grab her purse after which she left the apartment..
Sandy and Cassie both raised their heads to the closed door with a meaningful look before they bursted out laughing…
“Great! she left” Cassie exclaimed and at the same time, she pulled her phone out of her pants pocket..
She typed on it for some time before inserting it back into her pocket..

Bianca raised her head when she felt someone blocking her path..
A pair of blue eyes peered intently at her, his lips pulled up into a smirk as he saw the look of surprise that crossed her face, even though it was just for a mere second..
“You!”
Bianca instantly turned around heading back to the door, she pulled it open but it was locked from the inside..
“Mum! not cool!” she yelled out at the closed door only to hear a chuckle behind her, she turned swiftly to the culprit with a chilly glare..
“What do you want?! don’t you get tired of being humiliated?!” She lashed out irritably, she honestly felt like going crazy..
Xander placed both hands into his pants pocket with a mocking grin..
“Your mum called me over.. she really does think that we are a thing.. she told me how much you loved the red roses and how you’ve been craving to hang out with me again.. I couldn’t resist coming over, I didn’t want to disappoint her, she’s cool”
Bianca’s glare intensified, of course her mum was bound to think of them that way since he didn’t bother to clarify everything her mum assumed!
She failed to understand what makes her dislike him so much, was it his hair? or his strong guts? just what exactly?
“Well next time you meet up with her, tell her the truth! and stop bugging me!”
“You’ve caught my attention, I don’t think it will be that easy to stay away now”

Rihanna closed the closet after stocking it up with her clothes, she noticed that the closet only contained Damien’s clothes but surprisingly Olivia’s things were not in there..
Her eyes fell on three unpacked trunks which sat lazily next to the closet, her interest was piqued instantly..
She opened the first trunk which had some male clothes in it, she guessed it was for Damien but that wasn’t what caught her attention..
She picked up the packet which she recognized staring at it with a widened gaze, what was Damien doing with a pack of c*nd*m?!
She ransacked a bit more to find two extra packs of it, but at least none was opened, she sighed in relief.. but what if they’ve used up other ones?
Rihanna’s hands went to her ears blocking it before she screamed out loud, the thought of Damien and Olivia curling up together under the blankets irked her, she instantly closed the case and went for the other..
She opened it, the amount of red in the case was enough to blind her, she picked out a red piece of clothing holding it with the tip of her fingers..
“That b*tch! I knew it! she really has something for Damien! she must have seduced him, so shameless!”
She shut the case and zipped it before pulling it along with her to the door..
“I won’t let her stay in this room or anywhere near Damien!”
She was still pulling the case when the door suddenly opened startling her a bit..
Damien walked into the room and just behind him was Olivia who had a look of surprise and disbelief on her face..
She got that Rihanna was shameless, but this was just too much..
Rihanna forced a smile at Damien, she left the luggage case to stand on its own and suddenly ran into Damien’s arm..
“Surprise! I’m sorry I came without telling you.. I wanted to give you a beautiful surprise..”
Damien’s brows collided, his hands gripped her shoulder before pushing her off him, his gaze lowered to her like a beast ready to devour its prey..
“What the hell are you doing here?!”
Olivia rolled her eyes at their little couple fight, she was about to excuse herself when her gaze fell on her luggage case..
“I came here for you.. just like how we used to be back in those days” Rihanna sheepishly murmured trying to ignore the harsh tone he used on her..
Her eyes fell naturally on Olivia who was glaring daggers at her .
“Dami.. I know that you weren’t expecting me to come over.. I’m sorry for not informing you”
Damien closed his eyes briefly trying to calm down his nerves which he succeeded in doing, he understood Rihanna’s plight but she needed to know that they were really over and there was no way they’d go back to how they used to be..
“Fine.. I don’t mind you staying.. after all, Chicago doesn’t belong to me.. but first leave us, we have something important to talk about”
Rihanna smiled at his response, she turned back to the luggage and proceeded to take it out only to be held back by Olivia who had been quiet all these while..
She snapped her gaze back to Olivia whose amber eyes were burning with nothing but anger and disgust towards her..
“That’s my luggage you’re taking out!”
Rihanna chuckled hard at Olivia’s words which the latter didn’t find funny at all..
“Yeah.. I know dummy, that’s why I’m taking it out now, you see?.. I’m here now, so I’d suggest you book another room, I’ll be staying with Damien from now on.. I already packed my things in the closet”
Olivia’s knuckles tightened, she should have been happy about moving out of the room and finally away from Damien but something within her didn’t find this fit..
She snatched her case back from Rihanna..
“Get the hell out of here!” She lashed out in irritation shocking both Rihanna and Damien..
