Chapter 53
she started to miss them.
"Madam," Blaire shouted at the sight of Dawn coming down from the car since the little misunderstanding between the two sisters the house was left vacant, Blaire wasn't bothered as she was still getting her monthly pay but at some point, She hugged Dawn happily as Dawn hugged her back.
"How have you been?" Dawn asked as Blaire collected her handbag from her.
"Fine, I have missed you," Blaire confessed staring at Dawn who looked really different. It was definitely are dressing because she wasn't wearing her usual baggy clothes but a well tailor suit and heels. She looked around but she noticed Dawn didn't come with any luggage's, did that mean that she wasn't planning to stay a while but only came to visit.
"I have missed you too."
"You say that but you never for once called me"
"I apologize for that, when last did Olivia come here?"
"I haven't seen Miss Olivia in a while, she actually calls once in a while to check in on me and the last time she came here. She came with some Mister Travis to pack her things," Blaire explained. "I think he is her boyfriend." Blaire had not been surprised to see Miss Olivia with a man, it wasn't a new thing but when they started packing her things she concluded that she finally had a boyfriend.
"Okay."
"let's go inside," Dawn said as they went inside holding each other and discussing about the things that had been on going when Dawn was away.
When it was noon, Olivia barely did anything as she had someone do her make up and as well get her dressed for the event. Travis had gotten her a navy-blue gown with a white fur jacket, at first Olivia was debating whether to wear the gown or not the gown was fitted and revealing her stomach but when she was handed the fur jacket she decided she could rock the outfit. "You look beautiful."
"You, too," she replied and she wasn't bluffing. He really looked good in his navy blue well tailored suit and white inner shirt. She noticed their outfit complimented each other and she could only wonder if Travis didn't feel awkward by it as he was the one that selected their clothes.
The ride to the event was silent as Travis was on his phone, one minute he was typing, the next minute he was calling someone as regards the event. Olivia wondered what kind of event it was as he didn't mention anything to her about it, all she knew was that there was an event.
She didn't even know if they were over dressed or under dressed for the event but she could trust Travis sense of fashion because he always knew what was trending and invoke.
When the car turned into an estate, Olivia found herself looking outside. It was a bit dark but the estate lighting was top notch and Olivia could tell this wasn't an ordinary estate plus the decor felt quite familiar to her.
Why did it feel familiar to her? Had she been here before? Well she had visited a lot of estates in the area so maybe this was one of those estates she nearly concluded until they passed through a gate with Klar written boldly on the top. The Klar's mansion, she had been here once with Sarah when she was still head over heels in love with Stephan or was it her obsession that drove her that day to beg Sarah to please let her see Stephan by all means.
When they had gotten to the gate, the guards had not wanted to let her in but Sarah had reassured her that she was a friend. Even now they stopped the car to demand for the tickets.
So it was Stephan's event, was it his company's event? And when did he move back in? Wasn't he staying at his pent house? She wish she could ask Travis about it but with the questions piling up she was sure Travis was going to get the wrong impression of the situation.
She decided to shut her mouth and just observe plus she was sure she would see Dawn, she might ask Dawn instead that's if they even get to talk and to think of it she didn't feel comfortable in Stephan's presence especially when Dawn was next to him.
Truly she was over him but she wasn't over the fact that Dawn took him away from her without even lifting a muscle, all she had to do was show her pretty face and Stephan was hooked like a lost puppy. She wished Dawn had never come back when she did and even if she had, she should have never taken her to that party. The whole thing annoyed her so much.
"Shall we?" She heard Travis voice finally in a long time as he offered her a hand after he stepped outside, she took the hand slowly coming out of the car as flashes of lights beamed from different directions. She tried to use her hands to cover a face but the bodyguards covered her and Travis instead.

"Mr Travis, is this your girlfriend?" Olivia heard one of the camera man asking as he kept snapping them non stop as they walked into the building.
"Is she your wife? She looks pregnant." Another yelled.
"Pregnant whore," his colleague chuckled and this time Travis signaled one of his bodyguards whispering something into his ear. It didn't take long for the bodyguard to fish out the camera man who said that and chase him out of the event. The others getting the whole scenario decided to keep their mouth shut especially when it came to the word pregnant and any abusive word.
They wondered who the hell was this woman that Mr Travis had brought to the event, that he was protecting so much. They couldn't really capture her face fully as the bodyguards seemed to be protecting her but one of them could tell that she looked familiar.
"Isn't this Stephan's woman?" The lady mumbled to herself instructing her camera man to snap any angle he can get of her. If she was truly Stephan's woman this was going to be hot gist for their newspaper next week and she was at the verge of getting fired so this was definitely a good back up plan to secure her job.
"You made it," Sarah smiled sighting them as they stepped into the hall. A lot of people were everywhere and they were dressed to kill for sure, from their head to their heels were expensive materials and accessories. "Yeah," Travis smiled hugging Sarah. "I thought you won't come after the Dawn incident," Travis added.
"I actually went to see her eventually," Sarah smiled. She had gone straight to Dawn's house and met Dawn dressed in some baggy looking clothes and making lunch in the kitchen. Dawn was shocked to see her and offered her a hug. "Hey, you didn't have to come here." Dawn told her shaking her head still in disbelief that she actually drove all the way to her.
"What do you mean by that? I am really angry at you," Sarah confessed to her. "Me?"
"You just left without even talking to me about it, when clearly we had concluded that whatever happens you will inform me."

"I am sorry, I was really not myself when I left," truly Dawn wasn't herself when she left. She had cried her eyes over the night thinking about what she was going to do now, the more she cried the more she realized that she loved Stephan and that was why this was affecting her so much.
How and when did she fall for him? Her heart was tore between her baby and this heartless man.
"So what? You are just going to stay here away from us."
"He clearly doesn't want the baby and I don't want to get rid of the baby, I don't think I can just get rid of it, I have always wanted to have a child and I know it's too soon but all the same I want the child."
Sarah didn't know what to say but in all she wanted to be here for Dawn but no matter how angry she was she knew it wasn't Matteo's fault. This was all Stephan's decision and no matter how Matteo try to talk to him, she doubted he will listen to any of it as he was a very stubborn man.
She decided not to prolong the talk or make Dawn start thinking of things but she had to commend Dawn for talking the matter with caution. She seemed gentle and relax or was it just Sarah's view apart from her puffy eyes which Sarah was sure she had cried out she seemed relax.
They talked about the way forward and Dawn wanted to just relax a bit before figuring it all out.
"What is wrong with Dawn?" Olivia asked Sarah who had not looked at her once.
"She is going well," Sarah replied. "I will go to Matteo, feel at home." Sarah said leaving them alone.
"Is Dawn okay?"
"She is fine, just pregnant," Travis said holding her hands as they walked slowly into the hall.
"Pregnant?" Olivia questioned not understanding the statement, was Dawn cheating on Stephan then got herself pregnant? She wanted to laugh but she stared at Travis instead.
"She is pregnant Olivia," Travis repeated as he smiled at some guest who were nodding to greet him.
"For who?" Olivia asked.
