Chapter 2 One Night Stand

Chapter Two

As I stepped out of the hall, I tried to make sense of what was happening.

I walked down to a bar, probably I could sit and get what's happening, it's beyond my imagination, I have never heard it happen, I just watched it on movies or read it on books, and why is it happening to me?

I got to the bar and ordered for alcohol, I ordered more and more.

***

I stretched myself as I woke up.

"What? Where am I? Who is this?" I said as I found a man at the bed.

Oh! I remembered I drank alcohol and what happened next? Yeah, I know the bar is attached to a hotel and what am I doing at the hotel with just a singlet and a short trouser I was putting on under my long gown?

"Who are you?" The Man faced me, after I asked.

"Thanks to you Rachel, I enjoyed my night"

"Your night as how? What did I do?"

"We had a one night stand"

I checked my body and I confirmed what he just say

"Oooh! No, no, please"

"I am Nathsn Taylor, the CEO of creamies company"

Of course, I know the company, Creamiss,it's one of the top three businesses in the country, alongside Ryan's father's company, FL company.

"You are Mrs. Anderson, oh! I am sorry, I forgot that you are going to sign a divorce paper this morning, sorry about that"

"What? Who are you? How did you know so much about me?"

"Well, it's bad seeing you face those challenges, but why are some people heartless, even your family betrayed you"

"Can you tell me who you are?"

"Do you know there's still more to the conditions given to the three brothers"

"Why are you telling me all these? Having a one night stand with me when I was drunk isn't enough for you?"

*Another condition given is to give whoever make the company run to number 1 in the next competition is the one who will get the property"

"Why are you telling me this? I need to know what your motives are, I can't just accept everything you are saying"

"Do you want to take revenge on Ryan? He has betrayed you by getting married to your sister, now is the chance for you to revenge, he married your sister but you shouldn't allow him inherit the company"

"I leave them to do whatever they want, Mr. Nathan, I am not interested"

"Okay, this is my business card" he threw the card on the bed and left.

As I was about dressing up, my phone rang. When I checked, it was Ryan's lawyer calling.

"Hello"

"Good Morning Ma'am, I am expecting you at the office"

"Alright, I'll be there shortly" I said and I hung up.

There's nothing I could do, that shows they don't want me around them, and I can't force myself. I will show up as they want and sign the divorce paper.

With a heavy heart, I bathe and dress myself up. I knew there was nothing I could do to stop the wheels that were already in motion.

I took a cab and got there.

I saw Ryan and Ariana seated at the right side, I saw my parents seated at the left hand side.

I went to meet the lawyer "where's the divorce paper"

Everyone was shocked when they heard me say that, were they expecting me to keep begging?

"Babe, when are we going on the trip?" I heard my sister asked Ryan.

"Anytime you want darling, I will do anything for you, you are pregnant with my son, so ask anything you want"

I could hear them loudly, and I remembered what Mr. Nathan said, it seemed like I would be revenging.

I took the pen and signed the paper.

"Done" I handed the paper over to the lawyer and left.

I checked my bag and took the card Mr. Nathan gave me.

I took a cab, and I went directly to his company.

I met the receptionist, a young and beautiful lady.

"Hello, how can I be of help?" she asked.

"I need to see Mr. Nathan Taylor, tell him Rachel Anderson wants to see him"

"I can't just call him, do you have any appointments with him"

"No, but just tell him please"

The receptionist called him and she directed his office to me.

I followed the receptionist's directions and that led me to Nathan's office.

I knocked and he said I should enter.

"Your office is not bad" I said as I stepped into his office.

"But not to be compared to your ex-husband office?" He smiled.

"Ex-husband? Am I not Rachel Anderson again? Am I divorced ? Ooh! I just signed the divorce paper, why do I have to let my sister take away my husband?" Tears began to drop from my eyes.

"You don't need to cry Rachel, you did what was right, they don't want you, your family betrayed you and even your sister the one you cared for all your life did this to you, so you did what was right"

I breathe in and out deeply, "I did what was right? Let's skip that, now I am ready to take revenge, I am ready to do anything to stop him from inheriting the company ...."

"But how does that stop him from inheriting his father's property, okay if you take up the number one position, if he takes the number two, he's still going to inherit it"

"No, just do your part, and leave the rest to me"

"What's my part?"

"You have been living with him together for the past five years, you know what his strength is, who he relies on, you know his weakness and everything about him, don't you think we can get him through that?"

"Do you think if you get those information, he wouldn't be inheriting it"

"Yes, leave the rest to me, I wouldn't make him near it"

"Then I am ready to say everything"
