Filed To Story: A Sacrificial Lambs Unexpected Marriage
One of the executives sighted Oriana and called Patrick’s attention.
“Mr. Hendrix, that looks like your second daughter.”
When Patrick turned around, he saw Oriana. The smile on his face hastily disappeared. It was obvious that he wasn’t happy to see Oriana.
“Go ahead and drink guys, I’ll be back.”
Patrick excused himself and went to meet Oriana.
“Oriana, why are you here?”
Oriana focused her gaze on Patrick’s face. She threw open her hand and requested.
“Mr. Hendrix, can you please give me back what my mother left me?”
Sure enough, Patrick’s expression had changed drastically and he panicked. He wondered how Oriana got to know about the book.
Back then, he had given Pamela the first volume of the medical book that Joyce had left for Oriana. He definitely couldn’t give it to Oriana.
“Oriana, what are you speaking of? I don’t understand you at all!” Patrick tried playing smart by feigning ign orance.
“Mr. Hendrix, no need for the pretence. I know the truth already. Pamela told me that she got her medical skills from my mother’s book! Or didn’t she?”
Patrick couldn’t help but scold Pamela inw ardly. How could she be so stupi d to tell Oriana about the medical book?
“O live, to be honest with you, I had given the medical book which your mother left behind to Pamela. But Pamela had already lost it. I don’t have it anymore!”
Oriana withdrew her hand. Her mother had really left her a medical book!
The odious part was that it was with Pamela all along!
Hearing Patrick’s claims of the book missing, Oriana was convinced that Patrick didn’t want to give her the book.
Oriana wasn’t furious or happy. She nodded and said,
“It’s fine Mr. Hendrix, you can go ahead and continue drinking. I’ll leave now.”
How could Oriana react so mildly?
Patrick had doubts that she was really leaving, so he asked in confirmation.
“Oriana, are you just leaving?”
Oriana let out a chuckle and replied,
“Yes, I’ll go ahead. But I believe that very soon, you will bring the medical book that my mother left behind in person!”
Oriana went to the presidential suite to look for North. Once she arrived, North threw her a bottle of strawberry flavoured yogurt and inquired,
“How did it go?”
Oriana poked the straw into it and took a sip of the strawberry yogurt.
“My m om left a medical book for me, but Patrick had given it to Pamela.”
“That’s a little troublesome, if I may say. Those two are rascals and they won’t easily return the pharmacopeia to you.” North muttered worriedly.
Oriana blinked her eyelashes as she pondered on what to do.
“I have a way to get them to return it at my door.”
North really wasn’t worried about Oriana, she knew that Oriana could get anything that she wanted.
A messaged came into Oriana’s phone. She clicked on it and it was from Deacon.
“Mrs. Armstead, I’m being pestered.”
Oriana quickly replied.
“By who?”
“It’s Pamela, she’s here to seduce me again!”
“Oriana.” North walked over to Oriana and informed her,
“Oriana, you’re on the trending search again.”
What?
North handed her phone to Oriana and said,
“All you have to do is sit at home and trend effortlessly. Look at it yourself, the number one trending topic is Oriana’s marriage”
Oriana pondered why her marriage was trending. She collected the phone from North and read through the headline, beneath was a photo of Deacon and Pamela. They both stood together. Deacon looked quite ravishing, he was wearing a black suit, and his right hand was tucked into his trouser pocket.
Pamela was clothed in a pink dress and had stood beside Deacon. Her eyes were filled with deep admiration for Deacon. Confidentially, Deacon had also come to the hotel.
The comments flowed in hastily.
“CEO Armstead finally healed his eyes. He realized that Pamela was the better one.”
“Oriana was humiliated before the entire LA, President Armstead saw her true colors. It’s expected for him to abandon her.”
“I knew this would happen sooner or later. Oriana is only an orphan from the countryside, and Pamela is a talented medical girl. President Armstead finally made the right choice.”
North shook her head and mumbled.
“Girl, this Pamela really has eyes for your man. I feel like if there’s a bed here, Pamela would shamelessly lie with Deacon on it.”
Of course, Oriana was fully aware that Pamela had been coveting her man.
Oriana replied with a snort,
“Mr. Armstead, why don’t you have a discussion with that talented girl?”
“I’m afraid that you’ll hit me.” Deacon’s message came in.
“So y
“So you do have time to send me a message, but can’t handle Pamela?”
Deacon h oo ked his lips when he received the question. He could almost imagine how angry she was.
Pamela looked at Deacon with shyness and admiration. She had left the Ivory Council like a proud peacock and couldn’t wait to chase Deacon. She was a young girl who had caused at sensation in LA.
Pamela wanted Deacon to also see her uniqueness. She was looking forward to seeing Deacon regret his decision of chosing Oriana. She still did not comprehend how Deacon could be fascinated by that ba stard Oriana. But she was certain that he should be awaken now.
“Mr. Armstead, today Oriana lied that she saved the old Mrs. Robert. She claimed to be the one when she had only graduated with a high school degree, I even have doubts that she can even handle a silver needle. Once I had saved the old lady again, director Hudson was totally upset with Oriana that he had chased her away.” Pamela took in a deep breathe and continued,
“However, Oriana is my sister after all, and I sympathize with her. I think she’s jealous and envious of me. I’ll definitely create an opportunity so she could plead with director Hudson for a second chance…”
Before Pamela could complete her sentence, she could see Deacon staring at his phone, as he let out a loud laughter.
Pamela hastily went mute. It was as if he didn’t even see her arrive.
“Mr. Armstead, do you have some work to do?” Pamela questioned tentatively in a bid to get his attention.
Deacon put his phone away, and his deep narrow eyes landed on Pamela’s beautiful face.
“Oh, it’s alright, I was just chatting with my wife.”
Pamela’s face swiftly turned pale. Had he been sending messages to Oriana?
Now that Oriana had caused such a huge scandal, and had become the laughing stock of the public, Didn’t he still despise her?
“Mr. Armstead, Oriana must really be in a bad mood. Everyone hates her now. I’m certain that she feels very ashamed of herself. This afternoon, she couldn’t find her voice any longer.”
Oriana had left the institute at noon. It was rumoured that she was hiding and did not dare to show her face to anyone. She was even refered to as “the lost voice.”
Deacon looked at Pamela and suddenly stood up. He took a step forward and approached her.
Pamela’s heart sk ip ped a beat. The tall man’s body quickly covered the silhouette. Deacon was a man who only conveyed power. He was like a go d which people trembled upon his appearance. Pamela’s beautiful face flushed red, and her heart pounded faster, as she stared at Deacon who was heading to her.
Pamela looked at Deacon, even at such close distance, his handsomeness still radiated and he was without a blemish. Pamela had never gotten the opportunity to be close to Deacon, because Deacon never allowed it.
Pamela was overjoyed. She couldn’t help but wonder if Deacon was about to confess his feelings to her.
“Mr. Armstead, are you okay?”
Deacon stopped after a distance. He lowered his handsome eyelids and looked at Pamela.
