The whole Media press in the city flooded the entrance of Kingston Inc., leaving me to wonder what the big occasion was. We have never experienced such crowd.
"Excuse me! Excuse!", I said as I squeezed little self through the crowd of hungry Media press. I still wondered what the big new was that brought all the popular news channels in the city to the Kingston firm.
Even Kaiden himself didn't get this much attention upon his arrival, why now? Or has Kaiden finally put on a scene to get the press flooding him like flies?
I finally got into the the firm pushing through the glass entrance with the Securities doing their possible best to keep the door shut. I walked into a hall full of employees mounted at different ends, looking outside and whispered words to one another like we are all having a day off.
"Trisha!", Stacey said calling out to me, squeezing herself through a group of arguing employees.
"Did you hear?", she asked leaping in excitement.
"Here what?", I asked still curious of what is going on.
"Are you sure you are still an employee here? Why are you always in the dark?"
"I am practically not an employee here because I am not getting paid, and you know that, so spill it already", I replied.
"Rumors has it that Mrs. Kingston is in the city and she is visiting the firm today. Even the press knows this, I wonder why you don't", Stacey said overly happy.
"Maybe I don't care and I don't want to know. Who is Mrs Kingston anyways?", I said nonchalantly.
"She is Kaiden's mother. She arrived yesterday", she said still smiling from end to end, which I still don't understand.
"Why are you so happy?", I asked getting annoyed of the over excitement she has for the Kaiden's mother.
"Whenever she comes, she always comes with a suitor for Kaiden or she picks on her arrival. Which Kaiden rejects everytime, and I just hope he doesn't this time"
"Do you really this that you have a chance with Kaiden's mother choosing you? Or you have forgotten that Kaiden is married to me already?", I scoffed at Stacey's stupidity and obsession with rich and handsome men, even if they are arrogant and aggressive.
"That you don't like?", Stacey said flinging her hair at my face and headed off.
I scoffed once again because she would come to regret her actions sooner or later.
Immediately the whole atmosphere was led in an uproar as a three black shinny tainted Benz pulled in front to the firm, one before the other. The whole press flooded the three cars, throwing questions left and right even before the persons inside the cars could even make their way out.
Pathetic to watch though.
Six men in black rushed out from the cars at the front and at the back, speaking to their ear phones and signalling themselves. Three of the men stood at the right hand side of the middle car while the other three tried to control the press by pushing them backwards.
The door to the back seat of the middle tinted Benz was finally opened and a lady stepped out. I couldn't have a clear view at her because the crowd flooded my face, not to even say that my height is not intimidating enough.
"What business do you have in New York now ma?"
"Do you have another suitor for Mr. Kross this time or are you going to choose here for him?"
"How are you sure he will accept this time around?", the press bombarded with questions as they tried to get through to her but the Securities held them off pretty good.
All my jumping attempts didn't work either but I didn't give up, I had to see who the cause of all their scenerio was. I had to go in-between the legs of running individuals and all I could see was a walking stick.
Oh c'mon, give me something tangible people.
I finally pulled through and I was at the front of the whole scene. Then the Securities pushed us backward as she entered inside the firm, blocking me from getting to see her. They also pushed the press out and shut the door against them. I pushed and pulled my way to the back so that I could get a better view at her as she walks to the elevator.
My eyes caught a woman in her late 50s, just like the one I saw at the mansion yesterday. She still had that walking stick, I should have known the moment I say that stick. Her blonde hair is tied up neatly in a French bun, her lip has this spicy red color from her lipgloss like a vampire sucking blood. She wore this cream jacket with pearl bracelets and pearl earrings. She is that woman I have always envisioned myself when I grow old.
She took clear and bold steps as she approached the elevator. Her eye caught with mine and I could see that glare, my breath seized for a while and goosebumps travelled down my body.
She paused in front of the, whispered something to one of the security men by her right hand and they both gave me that piercing glare. My eyes started twitching and my heart began to beat faster than it has ever beaten.
This very action caused an uproar and all eyes where on me. "Is she the one that Mrs Kingston is going to choose for Mr. Kross?". "She is so lucky to get the Chairwoman's attention". Whispers flew across the room and I could see that Mrs. Kingston heard it.
She scoffed and I could see her devious smirk, just like that of Kaiden as she entered the elevator accomplished by the Securities.
"What was that for?", I asked myself.
