Selene looked around the busy restaurant, recognizing it from the na Kael had given her yesterday. She walked in, hoping to spot her colleagues among the crowd.
When she finally spotted her colleagues, Selene removed her mask. The restaurant’s tight security ensured that fans couldn’t disrupt the custors, so she no longer needed to keep it on.
"My gosh! You look stunning as always, Selene! I love the jacket," Mian, one of the casts of Shadows Of Deception complinted Selene.
She was a B-list celebrity who always complinted Selene on her outfit each ti Selene almost thought she was her fan.
"Thank you," Selene appreciated. She took a seat next to Kael and he smiled at her.
"Since everyone is here, let’s order our al," said director Jax.
There were about 7 people seated around the table, including Selene. They never really got the ti to chat and have fun without having to think about the movie.
Just like director Jax had promised, he didn’t bring up the talk of the movie. It was all just about fun. So drank until they got drunk, while so beca a little tipsy. Kael and Selene didn’t drink since both of them would be drinking themselves ho.
Xavier had offered to have Jake take her, but she felt guilty about making Jake wait for her in the car all day long. She didn’t know when they would be done anyway.
When it was ti to go ho, the bodyguards of the others who ca with them assisted in taking them to the car. Selene bid them goodbye before getting into her car.
She rubbed her stuffed belly before releasing a sigh. She’d bitten more than she could chew by ordering more and more food until she couldn’t lift a finger anymore.
She couldn’t help but be glad she didn’t drink, else she would have been throwing up here and there.
Selene checked the ti only to see it was only 4 pm.
"Xavier would be heading ho soon."
Just when Selene was about to turn on the engines of the car, her eyes caught sothing. Not sothing, but soone— soone very familiar.
She thought her eyes were playing tricks on her so she squinted it to be sure she was seeing right.
Alia, together with a young man who didn’t look more than soone in his late twenties ca out from a house.
Alia was wearing a red scarf to cover half of her face, but since she was facing in a direction Selene could see her properly, she imdiately identified her.
anwhile, Selene thought her eyes were going to pop when she saw Alia, her mother with a man much younger than her.
They were too far away so she couldn’t hear what they were saying. But the way Alia smiled at him, touched his hands very seductively, and winked at him from ti to ti, it didn’t take a genius to know exactly what was happening.
Even a five-year-old would understand that sothing intimate was going on between the both of them.
Quickly, Selene snatched her phone from her bag and took pictures of them. She’d already known for a long ti that Robert was cheating on Alia, but never in her dreams would she have dreamt that Alia was doing the sa thing to Robert. They were playing the sa ga with each other, and one day, either one or both of them would burn.
But since Selene had discovered it, there was no doubt that they’d both face the consequences together.
"I will co by next ti," Alia said to the young man before she leaned and peeked him on his cheek
He watched her get into her car and zood off he headed back into the house.
Selene was too stunned to speak, her mind struggling to process what she had just seen. Her previously heavy stomach, weighed down by anxiety and unease, now felt oddly light, as if the shock had sohow resolved the tension and discomfort she’d been carrying.
Selene stared at the pictures on her phone. Alia was cheating on Robert. A smirk pulled on her lips.
Jack was stealing from Robert, Robert was cheating on Alia, and Alia was cheating on Robert.
"The family is not even loyal to each other," she laughed out loud.
Rembering she didn’t have a photo of Robert and his lover, she quickly zood into the Harrison company and waited for him to leave.
Robert usually visited his lover at dusk or sotis in the afternoon. She could only hope he was going at dusk, else she would have to wait for him outside the building the next day.
Good thing director Jax had given them the next day off.
In less than an hour, she sighted Robert getting into his car and leaving. Imdiately, she followed behind him.
Just as she’d hoped, Robert went to visit his lover. When he got to her house, he knocked on the door softly.
The woman ca out, wearing a shirt and a blouse. She looked like she was in her early thirties with blonde hair.
Selene fetched her phone and took pictures of them, especially when they pecked each other on the lips.
"This is going to be fun," Selene said to herself as she flipped her phone in her hands while her heart danced in joy. "Every one of them is going to et their doom after I’m through with them."
Selene rembered Michelle; the only thing she had against the latter was the robbers who still had not confessed yet. But Selene didn’t want to bother herself with them. She knew it was Michelle who sent them, and that was all that mattered.
Now, she was only going to sit and watch as the family mbers continued to betray each other which would end up breaking the family as she’d wanted.
"This is going to be too fun to watch."
She sighed with a satisfied grin before she reversed and headed back ho.
