Chapter 35
Writer's POV
Back in New York...... Knight residence....!
*.... billionaire's daughter, Olivia Thompson was publicly rejected by the youngest billionaire, Andre Knight! Does this mean we should be expecting some drama from both families?....*
Ma Doris angrily turn off the TV and tossed the remote control away.
Mr and Mrs Knight sits quietly on a sofa... though Mrs Knight look quite happy and pleased after hearing the news.
"Ed! You see your son? You see what your son has done!" She fumed and paced back and forth anxiously in the living room. "Mom, calm down..."
"How can I calm down?" She cuts Ed off. "I promised Mrs Chesterfield.. I promised her to help her get Andre and Olivia back.. I even arranged for them to go to spain together... But what did your worthless son do? He humiliated Olivia publicly!"
Mrs Knight scoffs loudly and crossed her legs... picking her fingers.
"I told you Mom, I told you not to force Andre, he'll only...."
"Shut up, Nora!" Ma Doris cuts her off too.
Mrs knight simply rolls her eyes and ignore her.
"Andre, doesn't listen to anyone and once he sets his heart on something he goes for it... stop wasting your time Mom, I told you before... I won't welcome Olivia in my home the second time!" She gets up and walk towards her room.... Humming a happy tone as she goes.
Ma Doris points at her... opening and closing her mouth, like she doesn't know what to say.
"Now I know where Andre got his rudeness from..." She sits on a sofa agitatedly. "What am I gonna tell Mrs Chesterfield?"
Ed sighs.
"Mom, you and Mrs Chesterfield caused this humiliation, Andre did nothing wrong.... he's a grown up man and can take care of his own affairs... ".
She sent him a glare and he keeps quiet at once.
"You wouldn't understand why I'm doing this!"
Ed gets up and tucks his hands in his pants pocket.
"Whatever your reasons are.... Please don't use my son as your bargaining chip!" He walks towards his room.
Ma Doris stares at him.. feeling shocked. This is the first time Ed spoke to her this way... but that's not the main issue now.
She must find a way to make things right.

Thompson's residence....!
Thompson Timothy throws the glass he was holding across the living and angrily turn off the TV.
"When did Olivia went to spain? How come I know nothing about it?" He asked.
Martha and Diego stays sitted and silent... Mrs Chesterfield sighs.
"I did" she said.
"You did?" He takes a deep breath. "Mom, did you know the damage you've caused? Do you realize how this would destroy my reputation?" Mrs Chesterfield stares at him in dismay... her mouth hanging open.
"Your reputation? Is your reputation more important than your daughter's happiness?"
Thompson frowns.
"What happiness?"
"Don't tell me you don't know how crazily in love Olivia is with Andre... I had to let her go get her love"
Thompson shakes his head.
"Mom, you still thinking of Olivia and Andre coming back together? After Olivia broke him?"
"You are saying it as if Olivia is evil... My granddaughter is perfect and whatever she wants I'll get it for her... I don't care what happens!"
"You don't care what happens?!" He laughs sarcastically. "Of course you don't care... We've been humiliated publicly already" he grinds his teeth against each other. "Tomorrow morning, the paparazzi will flock here demanding us to make a statement... I believe you'll handle them on your own!"
He left the living room in a fit of anger... Martha and Diego also leaves quickly before Mrs Chesterfield will transfer her anger.
Mrs Chesterfield reached for her phone and quickly dialed ma Doris number... She picks almost immediately.
"Emily!" Ma Doris said from the other side.
"Doris, have you watched the news?"
"Yes... I just did, but I...."
"How could your grandson disgrace my family?! I don't know what state my granddaughter is right now!!"
Ma Doris sighs.
"I'm sorry, I honestly didn't picture this happening. I'll..... "
"I don't want sorries... If you still want to save your husband's company, then take care of this mess!" She hangs up and released a long sigh.
Though she pretends like she's tough and have everything in control... but deep down, she's scared things might get out of hand and their family will be the one to pay the price.
As they're already paying the price.... Bad comments about their family is all over the internet.
But for her granddaughter's happiness, she'd do anything.

Debby's pov
The next morning....!
Lucas looked at his wrist watch for the hundredth time this morning... I groan as I shift on my feet.
I looked at our luggages already packed and smiled. Today.. I'll visit spain!
"Anna... when are you gonna be done?" Lucas asked.
"Sorry, sorry... just give me a few minutes and I'll be done!"
Lucas groan.
"Why can't you be like Debby? No makeup on.. but still beautiful"
I laughed at his comment.. Anna comes out of her and jams her lips.
"Debby is naturally beautiful so she doesn't need makeups... but I on the other hand, let's not go there" she said.
She's exaggerating... Actually, between the two of us, she's the most beautiful.. she's got the most beautiful face... perfect figure.... perfect skin tone.
"Whatever.. so, girls... Are we ready to go?" Lucas asked.
"Hell yeah!!" Anna and I exclaimed simultaneously.

Spain... Andre's suite..!
Andre stands in front of the dressing mirror, fixing his tie while Phoebe reads out his schedule.
".... 1pm, you're having lunch with Mr Rodriguez... 4pm, you'll check the hotel's account book and 8pm, you'll inspect the hotel's kitchen!"
Andre nods and looks at himself in the mirror.. he nods satisfactory.
"Cancel 4pm's appointment... I'll be taking a nap!"
"Yes, Mr Knight!" She replies and begin to jot something on her notepad.
She paused as her phone rings... she moves to a corner to receive the call.
Few minutes later she comes back to Andre with a nervous expression.... Andre furrow his eyebrows.
"What?!"
She licks her lips and clears her throat.
"Mr.. Mr.. Mr...."
"Fucking speak properly!!" Andre boomed.
She closed her eyes. "Mr Knight, Miss Ryan is not in your mansion!"
"What?!!"
