GWENDOLYN

"mommy!!!"Gwen pressed her hands against the little one's lips. "shhh" she smiled and the little child stared at her with a confused look. "can't you see this is a public place, we don't need to make so much noise baby"she continued but other people minded their business. "okie" Angel gave her mom a wild smile. Gwen brought her down and held her hands and together they strolled inside the shopping mall. Gwen was not very rich but her financial level was average so she could afford the items in the shopping mall. Angel was one of the ballet dancers this year even if the little one can't really dance she was still chosen to be one of the dancers. Since this has been her baby girls dream, Gwen had to support her. She planned to get her little cookie the best ballet dress. "mommy look, look, l want the sparkling one over there, no no look the other one has gems, no that one's flair is cute" the five years old girl screamed. Angel was not the best child when it comes to being quiet, staying still or reading but she was still Gwen's world. The receptionist gave Gwen a look that said 'control your child please' and she nodded apologetically to the receptionist. "darling come on let's be good, no noise"she crouched to the kids level and pinched her cheeks playfully. "I'm sorry mommy" Angel had a sorry look "it's fine mommy isn't angry, let's go" Gwen urged the little one and they resumed their 'princess ballet gown scouting'. As they were checking through some dresses, Gwen's eyes caught a familiar figure, Irene Brooks! That same time Irene's eyes caught Gwen's eyes. The shock in her eyes was so evident. But she had eliminated Gwen so how is she here. Has she started seeing ghosts? At the thought of this, she fell on the the floor traumatized, her eyes fixed on Gwen. "mommy"a little girl came running to Irene. "young mistress" some guards also ran to Irene to help her up. "why are you just standing there, get a doctor!!" the young girl ordered rudely and the incident attracted attention. Gwen's eyes shifted to the little girl besides Irene and couldn't help but sneer, like mother like daughter, the girl is also rude like her mom. Gwen hated Irene and her mother, they were the source of her anguish, the reason her mother died, the reason her father used her as a collateral to a ruthless billionaire, the reason she had a child at an early age, the reason she almost died and the reason she left the love of her life. "I..ts. fi..nn..ne I'm okay" Irene managed to say as the guards were about to arrange for a doctor. "are you sure mommy?" the little girl asked "yes Pink mommy is fine" Irene forced a smile. She slowly turned and continued her shopping but her mind never left Gwen. She examined how Gwen touched clothes and her child, she didn't look like a ghost.... which means she did not die five years ago. How is that possible? She personally paid people when she found out she was pregnant with Bryan Morgans child. Those idiots have become so greedy and dull nowadays, they confirmed she was dead.How can they not tell the difference between a living and a dead, are they babies??? Irene's shock was now replaced with anger. She hated her half sister, Gwen only knew how to steal the spotlight then, she stole her first crush , thier father's love and her handsome CEO. Not able to control her anger, she quickly picked a dress for Pink and left the mall, she needed answers!! Gwen who had been trying to focus on her shopping saw Irene leave the mall and sneered at her. She should get ready to dance to her moves because she's back and back to take what belongs to her . Irene had spoilt her mood so after Angel decided her choice of gown, they left the mall, she wanted to drop Angel at her grandma's place, at least the old woman who saved her back then deserved a title. After dropping Angel, she boarded a taxi and went to her friend's place. Kiley had been by her side all those years and although Gwen sis not want to make her self too known but she felt she still had to see Kiley. She had missed her so much and hoped she still stayed in her former house. When she got there, they told her Kiley was already married and moved out, she inquired who Kiley got married to and was told it was Aiden George. Aiden George!!? she has heard that name, no way it can't be Bryan's friend. How come so much has changed? why? Those people are ruthless and evil, what happened while she was gone. Even though Gwen had trained herself not to cry, teras trickled down her cheeks uncontrollably. Kiley should not suffer her fate too. The woman who told Gwen everything understood why she was crying, Aiden George was a ruthless billionaire who many people feared but why did Gwen not know since she seems to be close to Mrs George? The lady thought. Gwen walked through the streets, her eyes wet. So much has changed in Australia but one thing never changed, anything about her, she's nothing but bad luck.She walked for about one hour aimlessly before boarding a taxi to her mom's place to take Angel. She can always go to see Kiley any other day but not today, she would break in front of her instead of comforting her and she was not ready to face all that today besides she needs a plan, Aiden is a friend of Bryan. " how is Kiley, child" Anna asked but Gwen's teary eyes made her nod several times "Gwen l hope she's okay?" she asked tears threatening to fall from her eyes. "she's not okay, she's not okay, she is in so... much pain" Gwen cried out and Anne quickly went to hug her, also crying. "she's married to a devil, she's suffering and she needed me........eeeee" she cried harder. "oh my goodness, Gwen who is Kiley married to" Anne gasped in shock. "Aiden George!!" Gwen screamed and the old lady comforted her but she was in utmost shock, how is it possible?. Gwen slept in Anne's house that evening anyway Angel was already asleep but the main reason was that Anne insisted Gwen needed comfort from someone. Not being able to argue she gave in and slept at her mom's place but she vowed to go and see her friend the next day. Meanwhile in the Morgan's mansion, after serious t*****e the bandits Irene paid to assassinate Gwen admitted she was saved. Irene was so mad, so what is she doing to do with such a useless and annoying information right now?? She paced back and forth in her room. If Gwen is back, she's definitely going to cause trouble for her, her life is not so good, her position is not very stable and Gwen would only worsen it. She must do something very quickly. "mommy!" Pink banged the door hardly. And this stupid child keeps getting on her nerves, can't she be a little more polite "yes Pink come in sweetheart" she managed to say through gritted teeths. The door was unlocked with force and the figure of a little child came into view. "mommy it's normal for beautiful girls to put makeup on, right?" Pink asked with her chubby hands on her waist. "of course sweetie" Irene smiled at her. "good so tell Reina, l want to wear makeup for dinner today but she won't let me"the little girl complained. At the mention of dinner, Irene's smile vanished, the matriarch was coming home for dinner today, is she sees such on Pink, she'll be angry and she'll call her irresponsible. Is this child her biggest mistake, why is she always haunting her peace of mind? who did she offend to deserve this? Irene thought "Pink no no no, you see some girls are so pretty without makeup, they are called super pretty girls and today your great grandma is coming, she should see your amazing beauty, l think that's what Reina was trying to say"Irene whispered as if it was a valuable message and Pink's eyes widened "oh l get mommy, Reina is dumb, she can't explain things well thanks mom" Pink hugged Irene. Despite Pink's annoying attitude, Irene sometimes thought of Pink as her daughter, she was sweet to her and fierce like her. The girl ran back to her room bouncing happily. Irene heaved when she left and proceeded to call mother before dressing up for the evening dinner.
