A Stolen Kiss From THE CEO!

198 Backstabbing Little Sister

Ella felt her whole body stiffening at Yvonne’s question. She felt her pulse quicken and her heart slammed against her chest. Her hand which was raised to her lips with a blueberry, slowly came down trembling.

“Ella, calm down!” She inwardly encouraged herself. “Comport yourself! She might be guessing or just nosing around for information. Don’t fall for her games.”

Ivory on the other hand was dumbfounded. Her widened eyes just gawked at Yvonne. She hadn’t told anyone anything, hence, she was surprised when Yvonne asked the question with so much conviction.

“So, are you going to answer my question or not?” Yvonne said slyly while eating more of the berries.

Ella took in a deep breath to steady her racing heart before speaking up.

“What’s the meaning of this? Did you invite me here to make fun of me?” Ella said angrily.

“Yvonne, I thought you wanted to make amends with Ella? Why are you peddling false information or asking an infuriating question?”

Yvonne burst out laughing at Ivory’s statement.

“You are so funny, Ivory. You both need a mirror to see your faces when I first asked the question. Even a blind man can feel the guilt written all over your face and quivering body.”

.....

Yvonne took more berries into her mouth and chewed on them greedily.

“From the looks of things, I don’t think you still have an appetite for these delicious berries.”

Yvonne stood up, walked up to Ella, and collected the saucer of berries from her hand. She poured it into the bowl of berries and carried the whole thing to her seat.

“You know what, I used to love berries back then when I was pregnant with my son.” Yvonne took her seat while staring directly into Ella’s infuriated eyes.

“When I came here to visit my Nana, she would always go to the same place and the same persons to make arrangements for these berries for me. Now, I understand why Nana has been drawn to you. She knew all this while, including my tight lips backstabbing baby sister.”

Yvonne flashed Ivory a demeaning look. Then, she maliciously started eating all the berries with no intention of sharing them with anyone.

Ivory was so lost for words that she just helplessly stared at Yvonne in dismay.

“Berries! Is that your theory? You think I’m pregnant because Nana Esther got berries for me?” Ella’s asked in disgust.

Her fears had suddenly been replaced with animosity and disgust for Yvonne. Now she understood that Yvonne would forever remain a vile person capable of camouflaging just to get into someone’s space in other to shred them inside out.

“Oh, sister-in-law,” Yvonne drawled annoyingly. “You need to take a chill pill. I don’t spread false information. No! On the contrary, I track, investigate, and uncover the truth before I spill.”

“Oh, really!” Ella rolled her eyes and stood up in annoyance. “What stinking proof do you have?”

Yvonne tittered like a witch that was about to gorge the eyes of her prey.

“More than your tiny brains would ever process. Do you want me to give you the highlights?”

“Oh, please, let’s hear what you have!” Ella shot back at her defiantly.

“Hmm... Feisty, huh! Let’s see the level of your feistiness after this.” Yvonne threw more berries in her mouth and slowly chewed on them to provoke Ella.

“For starters, I have Leon’s spare key to your bedroom. Hence the last-minute discussion you had with my baby sister a while ago was captured on video.”

“What!”

Both Ivory and Ella shouted consecutively.

“No need to shout yet, there is more!” Yvonne cackled in mockery.

“I also conducted a pregnancy test on you without your knowledge, today.”

Ella’s eyes widened and her opened mouth made a perfect O shape. She was too overwhelmed and speechless to respond to Yvonne; who kept releasing bomb after bombs

“You see...” Yvonne paused for a while to drink in the horrific look on Ella’s face before continuing. “... ever since I woke up this morning, new ideas hit me like meteor showers and I decided to lurk around Nana for pieces of information on why she keeps pampering you more than her actual grandchildren.”

“You conducted a pregnancy test on me without my permission!” Ella finally found her voice as Yvonne’s words registered in her brain. An overwhelming rage poisoned her veins, and she felt like going over to Yvonne, to strangle the life out of her.

“Come on! my brother keeps singing your praise that you’re so smart. I didn’t know you were this dull. Why are you dragging us back?”

Ivory could feel the heat rising between Ella and her sister in the room. She feared that if she didn’t step in now, the two ladies might go for each other’s throats.

“Yvonne, that’s enough! Can’t you see that you are provoking Ella? Daddy, mum, and grandma could hear your voices. You know Leon would be mad at you when he comes back and finds out that you have been messing with his wife.”

“Shut the hell up, Ivory! You don’t deserve to speak in this matter after choosing to backstab your own mother by keeping such secrets from her.”

“Yvonne!” Ivory’s temper and voice rose. “If you...”

“I said shut up!”

Yvonne rose from her seat furiously causing the bowl of berries that was resting on her thigh to slip and fall on the ground.

As if hypnotized by the scattered and rolling blueberries on the floor, all three angry ladies instantly stopped fighting amongst themselves. They watched as the different shapes and sizes of berries roll off to varying destinations.

“Can you see what you’ve caused?”

Yvonne’s eyes shot invisible fiery darts at Ivory.

“I didn’t do anything wrong! You were the one who greedily took the berries meant for only...”

“If you don’t stop talking, I will be forced to slap some senses into you.”

Yvonne interrupted Ivory again with threatening glares and a wagging finger.

As Ella kept watching the berries roll away, she felt her heart shatter into a million pieces. It felt as though each piece of her shattered heart was running after the berries, to secure them and bring them back to her.

Impulsively, she bent down and started picking up the berries as tears slowly rolled down her cheeks.

Instantly, the two squabbling sisters paused and gawked at Ella in bewilderment.

“Ella, I will get you more berries tomorrow. You don’t have to pick those up, they are already dirty.” Ivory said pleadingly.

Yvonne, who wasn’t ready to give Ella a breathing space, suddenly through another bomb.

“So Ella is my brother aware that you’re pregnant because I know that he doesn’t want children.”
