Accidental Bride

Chapter 6

This place does not look like a place where they would keep someone who was adopted by unknown men. The treatment even when I was blindfolded was with respect, care and caution. They led me to a luxurious room in a big mansion telling me to be free but out of fear I could not sleep, I was wake all through the night praying not to be killed or harmed, but it seems as if this is a blessing in disguises because they have brought me breakfast this morning to eat and which out of curiosity I told the chef that bought it to have a taste of it first which she politely did. I don’t seem to be a captive here, from their actions and words its beginning to look like I’m the boss here.

Good morning ma, I’m your butler and I have come to make you know that you would be having a meeting with your personal trainer, stylist and tutor, the voice said sharply from behind the door as he stepped away calmly. The meeting is in 30 minutes; if you need anything please do not hesitate to call my attention to it. Waow that sounded divine. It made me feel special and important. Who is behind all this? What are he’s or her motives? Why are they doing this and what is their aim? These questions ran through my head as I ate the delicious meal I was offered. Mehn, life is good when there is money. I have never had such a feeling of relieve and calm even if I don’t have a complete idea of what’s going on but feel somewhat better than being in my father’s house or in the province where I suffered like an orphan. Let me quickly get dressed to meet with the people waiting for me. Wait what, shocked as I opened the closet door to see that the entire clothes in it where my exact size and the shoes were a perfect fit. Is someone playing a trick on me or is this a dream? I pitched myself so hard so that if it was a dream I could be awaken from it, but sad enough and fortunately for me it’s a reality. I happily rushed to freshen up, as I changed and stepped out to meet with my supposed guest as if I where the boss of the house.

Good morning ma they all stood up in a hurry as I approached them, I turned in shock to see if the person whom they were greeting was behind me, I wasn’t sure it was me but in surprise they were actually referring to me, this is good. I felt like a queen in her palace. Good morning ma and sir I responded to them politely as they all waited for me to sit before they did. The man started pleasant day to you ma I would be your personal stylist, in charge of your outfits, designs and all while my colleague here as he pointed at the beautiful slim lady in gym outfit. I would be your personal fitness coach and motivator, and I would be your personal tutor, the last person said. This is too good to be true. What! A personal stylist, fitness coach above all a personal tutor? This is beyond amazing. It high time I got rid of all this fat and began to learn how to read and speak properly like an educated person. This is my dream turning into my reality; gosh I am so grateful to whosoever is behind all this. Please can I ask a question? I turned to all three of them. Who is responsible for all these? I mean who is footing the bills to all these? They smiled and said the lady of the house is and she has instructed us never to disclose her identity to you ma. Good morning ma the lady of the house wants to have a word with you, a man in black suit walked in directly towards me and handle me a phone, happy to speak so I could finally know the good lady behind all this. How are you my little princess the voice said as I put the phone to my ears? The voice sounds familiar but I couldn’t put a picture or a name to the voice, Hope they didn’t mal-handle you last night and hope you were not too frightened? I warned them against it and told them if any one scares my little princess I would make them pay direly. Now to business my princess I have sent across to you a personal tutor, a stylist and a personal fitness coach. I know these are the things you sister posses that you don’t and that’s why they have neglected and abandoned you to waste off, but trust me all that is about to change that’s if you’d work with me. I would ma I shouted in joy. Good now take your time allow them to teach you one after the other at your own convenience, you don’t need to rush, take your time and enjoy yourself as you learn, trust me it would help you learn faster. Ma can I at least know your name or who you are and why you’re doing all this for me? These have being my greatest dream and aspirations, she complete the statement for me. Don’t worry my little princess if you give your heart and mind to it all, in the next three to four months you would be un-recognizable not just to the people who threw you out to the streets because of their selfishness but even to yourself. I promise to make you the most influential and powerful woman in this city so you could serve a cold revenge to those who wrote you off and wanted to force you into getting married. How did she get a hold of all these information about me I wondered as she spoke. Surprised how I got all these details my dear? Don’t worry your pretty little head over me and what I know, all I want you to do is promise me you would become a better version of yourself and please put in your best while doing it and I also promise to take you to the top, no young lady in this city would be able to stand or speak before you without fear. Do you part by becoming better and watch me do my part by making you the richest and most influential woman in this city, do we have a deal? Yes ma with all pleasure. Please hold on I cut in quickly what do I offer you in return for his life transforming gift you have handed me? When the time is right I would let you know she replied with a little chuckle. For now just see me as your guardian angel, is that ok? Yes ma I replied in amazement. When the time is right I would reveal myself to you but till then that house is yours, you’re in charge whatever you said is law and it stands I would send a phone to you with my number saved on it, so you can always reach out to me lastly I would suggest that you lay low from the eyes of everyone for the time being as you undergo transformation. When the time is right I would unveil you to the world for power, wealth and influence. Take good care of yourself I’d be in touch, she said as the line went dead in my ears.

Is there anything else I can do for you ma the man said as I handled him the phone. No I said. Shocked and terrified tears rushed down my eyes to my cheek. I ever imagined a day like this would come, so I am going to be tutored and also have someone to help me with my weight. The same weight they have made jest of me for and the same education they have mocked me with is what I’m getting on a platter of gold. When I become educated I would make sure that the Bruce family pays for all the troubles and heart ache they have meted out to me. Even the almighty Murphy Jeff would go on his knees begging me to forgive him and his family after what I would do to them.

The entire revenge plan is to bring down Jeff holding and everything they stand for as by doing that I would also be getting even with my own family the Bruce family for their ill treatment to me all these years. As for that crippled lonely, mean beast I would make sure no woman comes close to him and he would die a lonely, slow and painful death before my very eyes for putting me behind bars and for making me an object of mockery and ridicule to my family. They would all pay. I promise them. When can we begin our training sessions I asked turning to all three of them? The young man replied we would be here three times a week to teach you for the next three months, no I replied I want you all to be here every day for the next three months and I need you all to teach me all that I know and how to be an elite. Ma are you sure you can do everyday wouldn’t it be stressful and tiring to you? That’s what I want and I need it to be done right away or would any of you be having a problem with that? No they all echoed. I guess we are done here. I beg to take my leave so I could process all this properly, I’d see you tomorrow morning by 7:00am, please enjoy the rest of your day I said in all confidence and boldness as I walked away from them heading upstairs to my room, my eye caught a glimpse of them jumping up to their feet. I stood up to leave. This is the new life style I have being given and I must do m best to live it out the best way I can.
