Gwendolyn glanced at the calendar That’s right, it was tonight.
Selinn’s flight was scheduled to land at Bayridge Airport, and her show wasn’t until next week.
“Maybe she’s just more likable, Gwendolyn mused, “Some people just have a natural charm
Sandra rolled her eyes, a bit of envy in her tone, “She’s just got it made! Her brother is the Chief Administrative Officer at Bayridge Hospital, her dad is the head of the Hamilton family, and her mom is a heiress of the Lopez family. Do you have any idea how influential the Lopez family is? The Capital City is dominated by the Chadwick family, while the Bayridge City is dominated by the Lopez family”
The Lopez family had old–money clout with deep and far–reaching roots.
They were both top influencers!
Gwendolyn pondered what Sandma said, which sounded familiar, like someone had said it to her before.
“Come on, let’s not spoil our appetites over someone inelevant.”
“Alright!
Gwendolyn obediently followed Sandra, devoid of the pride one might expect from a person with her heritage.
Sandra, for her part, was visibly pleased.
In the evening, Cliff drove Gwendolyn home.
As she entered the living room, she could hear Marina on the phone in the kitchen. The door was ajac and the conversation was loud and clear.
She was about to greet her when she saw a man descending the staircase,
“Mr. Chadwick….
Howard nodded slightly as he approached, his finger to his lips signaling her to be quiet,
Gwendolyn didn’t dare speak, straining to hear the louder noises from the kitchen.
Marina’s laughter tinkled through the phone, “Yeah, I saw it all right.”
Gwendolyn looked questioningly at Howard, not understanding what Marina was talking about.
Howard remained inscrutable, his eyes particularly intense.
Marina grew more animated, “They must have slept together! I saw the evidence when I was taking out the trash this morning. But ! never heard of the brand he used before. I’m worried it’s some off–brand, so I thought I’d buy him a few boxes to stash in his drawer. It would be better if they didn’t use protection, their kids would be gorgeous. I bet Howard has got some skills, so don’t worry. Look at Mr. Peterson, the talk of Bayridge City for his stamina. If Mrs. Chadwick has any special remedies, wouldn’t she prioritize her husband? Maybe it’s already cured, and they’ve been keeping it a secret, too embarrassed to tell the elders!”
By now, Gwendolyn had caught on.
It was all down to what happened last night with the condom package.
Marina had mistaken that they had already been intimate.
Gwendolyn flushed her cheeks at the thought. Facing Howard’s intense gaze, she stammered, “Maybe I should explain to Marina?”
ling with impotence and haven’t made a move, or that I managed to keep my cool “What do I need to clarify, Dr. Gwen? That I’m struggling even after a condom was in play?”
It was a no–win situation.
Embarrassed, Gwendolyn was saved from the awkwardness as Marina ended the call and came out of the kitchen. She saw them looking quite at ease, not the least bit guilty! Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
She greeted them warmly, “Dinner is ready/We’ve got some dishes that are nutritious to Mr. Chadwick. Is there anything else you’d fancy?”
All these dishes are good for the kidneys.
Gwendolyn looked at Howard awkwardly.
The comer of his mouth quirked into a smille as he was about to speak, but his phone buzzed in his suit pocket.
