Filed To Story: A Sacrificial Lambs Unexpected Marriage
Deacon grabbed his phone from pocket and dailed Oriana’s number. While the call was yet to be connected. Deacon looked sideways through the bright glass window, he sighted a large number of people walking out of the Ivory Council.
Dean Sebastian and Marvin were walking together. The said nothing to each other, as they didn’t know what to discuss, being that they were both national academicians and had unparalleled medical talents.
Everyone was chitchatting happily. Director Hudson who was always strict, could only lay down his armour of discipline, and join the students to chitchat and laugh.
Deacon watched quietly from the car. The students of the Ivory Council were really happy and in high spirit.
Oriana was being supported by Divine. Infact, Oriana didn’t want to attend the dinner party.
“Divine, you can go ahead for the dinner. I’ll be heading home, I’m certain that my husband will be here to pick me up soon.”
“No!” Divine pulled Oriana’s hand tightly.” Oriana, it’s your night, everyone is happy because of you. Why do you wanna leave?”
“It’s…” Oriana made to say something, but the phone in her bag rang. She quickly took out her phone and it was Deacon calling.
Oriana swiped the screen and the call connected.
“Hello, Mr. Armstead.” Oriana muttered with a smile.
Deacon focused his gaze at Oriana through the glass window. He congratulated in a low voice,
“Mrs. Armstead, congratulations.”
Oriana held tighter to the phone and replied with a shy smile,
“Thank you.”
“Mr. Armstead, where are you now?” She inquired.
Before Oriana could say another word, Divine quickly said loudly.
“Mr. Armstead, the dean has invited us all to a dinner party. Can you please allow Oriana to come along? She’ll be back tomorrow morning.”
“Divine!” Oriana hastily covered Divine’s mouth with her right hand.
Divine was so frightened that she ran behind dean Sebastian and hid. She stuck out her face from dean Sebastian’s back and winked playfully at Oriana.
Oriana chased after her, but Marvin’s tall figure suddenly appeared before her, blocking her path. Oriana stumbled, and bumped into his embrace.
Oriana’s eyes turned red. Marvin’s hand landed on her forehead, as he rubbed it gently.
“I’m sorry, are you alright? Does it hurt?”
Deacon who was in the car watched the scene calmly. His sharp–boned finger quickly curled up, clenching the phone in his hand. Deacon’s thin lips pursed into a cold and unhappy arc.
His narrow eagle–like eyes landed on Marvin’s hand.
Oriana quickly took two steps backwards and avoided Marvin’s hand. She rubbed her reddened. forehead and muttered,
“It’s fine, it doesn’t hurt.”
Marvin retracted his hand and lowered his eyes on her.
“Sorry, okay?”
Divine suddenly ran over and rubbed Oriana’s forehead.
“Your life shouldn’t always revolve around Mr. Armstead. You should have your own circle of friends as well.”
“What? Oriana, ain’t you gonna attend the dinner party?” Dean Sebastian questioned the moment he overhead Divine’s words.
The student swiftly gathered for Oriana’s response. Oriana felt embarrassed. She placed the phone behind her ears and asked,
“Mr. Armstead, can I please attend the dinner party, I’ll be back tomorrow morning.”
Deacon saw that Oriana was in a dilemma and his response was needed as soon as possible.
“It’s alright, you can go ahead. I have some documents to work on in the company. Have fun, okay?” Deacon whispered.
Oriana hooked her lips and replied,
“Thank you, Mr. Armstead.”
Oriana hung up the call and placed her phone back into her pocket. Deacon sat in the car and didn’t move.
Two girls rushed over and stared at Oriana and Marvin with admiration.
“Hi, talented girl Oriana and academician Marvin, could you come together so we can take a picture with you?”
Oriana was pushed forward by the students, she nodded happily,
“Okay.”
The two girls stood by the side and Oriana and Marvin stood in the middle.
“Oriana, academician Marvin, could you two get a little closer, please? The student who volunteered to be the photographer urged.
The two girls moved closer, causing Oriana and Marvin’s bodies to rub together. In no time, the picture was taken.
Deacon sat in the car and watched the scene. His two hands tightened as he gripped the steering wheel untill the veins in his hands throbbed violently.
He didn’t like the scene at all. He didn’t like any physical contact between Oriana and Marvin,
He became unhappy, and really didn’t want Oriana to go on with the party any further.
In honesty, Oriana’s ravishing beauty and radiance made him feel very insecure. Marvin was beside her and he could do nothing. He could only sit in the car and watch her.
Deacon closed his handsome eyes. He took in a deep breathe and tried to control himself.
He stepped on her accelerator and the Rolls–Royce Phantom sped away.
Deacon had drove far that he could no longer see Oriana from the rearview mirror.
Deacon regretted going to the Ivory Council. He really wanted staying, as he didn’t know what the duo would do behind his back.
He knew that they would go to the dinner party together, and maybe have a drink together. Once drunk. Deacon knew it was the easiest way for one to get sexually stimulated.
Would she hug Marvin? Or would they kiss? Or would they even make out?
Deacon shut his eyes and awakened from his thoughts. What was he thinking? Was it Oriana that loved him dearly that he suspected this way?
However, he could not control himself
He was sick!
Deacon had already stepped on the accelerator and kept driving.
Deacon didn’t know how fast he was driving. When the truck sped over, Deacon felt his eyes sting as the light from the truck was directly on his face.
When Deacon was younger, he had been in several life–threatening situations, and even when he came face–to–face with death, he was without fear. But now, his eyes widened and his big hand quickly turned on the steering wheel, trying to save himself.
He really didn’t want to die anymore. He now had Oriana and she was his reason to stay alive.
Before Deacon met Oriana, he did not realize how bad his illness was. But once Oriana came into his life, he began to crave wellness. All he sought was to improve himself and become a better version of himself.
However, none or his desire materialized yet. Deacon slammed the steering wheel, and the Roll Royce Phantom slid past the truck. Deacon’s car crashed into the street light, sending sparks all the way down. The Rolls–Royce Phantom was a world–class luxurious car. It’s defense resistance was best in the event of an accident. Although the front of the car was damaged, Deacon escaped death.
Deacon sat behind the steering wheel, his body had fallen apart from the violent collision. His vision was black, and he could see nothing.
People swiftly rushed over and opened the driver’s door.
“Mister, can you hear me?”
Deacon’s ears were buzzing. He did not respond to their questions.
“Sir, we’ve already called the ambulance, they’ll be here soon.”
Everyone stared at Deacon. He was dressed in a black suit. Although he had just gotten into a car accident, he was still rigorous and expensive.
Deacon body was now covered in blood, as it could not be deciphered where he was injured.
In the faces of the rescuers, Deacon was very persistent in his search for something.
“Sir, are you looking for your phone?” One of the rescuers inquired.
A woman handed Deacon the phone that had fallen when the door was opened.
Deacon collected the phone and quickly dailed Oriana’s number.
Oriana answered the call and her sweet voice passed over,
“Hello, Mr. Armstead.”
Laughter followed, as Divine said,
“Oriana, is it Mr. Armstead calling? It seems that president Armstead is very clingy.”
Deacon raised his pale lips and called out in a low voice,
“Oriana.”
Oriana hastily heard the abnormality in his volce. She excused herself and went to a more quite place. Once she was sure that she was alone, she asked nervously,
“Mr. Armstead, what’s wrong with you? Why do you sound that way?”
“Oriana, come over, okay?” Deacon clutched his phone and mumbled.
“Mr. Armstead, what’s wrong with you? Where are you now?”
“I just got into a car accident. My body aches. Oriana, it hurts alot…” He muttered calmly.
He had gotten into an accident and needed her over immediately. Deacon strength suddenly failed him as he slowly let go of the phone.
