Chapter 19: An Orange Trap
"Richard!" Michelle yelled at him, her anger evident in her voice. "Is that how you talk to our guest?" She questioned him. Now she regretted having him come over, especially after what happened at the party, she should have known that he would repeat his mistake.
"Will you relax? I’m just joking," said Richard, shrugging off his comment from earlier. He walked towards Anastasia and stretched out his hand for a handshake. "Hi, I know we didn’t get to introduce ourselves properly yesterday, but I’m Richard, Xavier’s brother and Michelle’s husband." He winked at her.
They both shared a handshake. "I’m Selene Jones," she replied.
Michelle glanced between the both of them before she said, "Let’s quickly go inside now."
Anastasia walked in with them with Michelle pulling her by the hand.
Kace had already left the Harrison mansion premises. He was sitting on top of the car with the binoculars in his hand as he sipped from his drink.
Suddenly, he sighed. "Am I getting paid enough for this stress?" He asked himself before sighing again and continued to monitor Anastasia’s moves.
Inside the Harrison mansion, Michelle gave Selene a house tour.
"This used to be my room before I got married to Richard," said Michelle, her mouth turning bitter at the mention of Richard’s name. She just wished he could disappear and never appear again.
’Why is she showing me around the house?’ Anastasia wondered.
"Let me show you Ana’s room before she left," said Michelle and they both left her room.
