Chapter 12
“What is your name pretty girl ?” Levi asked her but Mia just pushed him out of the way and entered the house.
“Hi” she said.
Edward turned and saw her and went back to what he was doing.
“You have a nice chest” she complimented blushing. Edward them realize that he was shirtless and walked out of the living room.
When Levi opened the door, it was Edward’s shirtless body that she saw and her mouth went agape.
“What is your name ?” Levi asked again.
It was then that Mia noticed that there is another human being in the room.
“I am Mia” she replied.
“Mia, what a beautiful name for a beautiful girl” Levi complimented.
“Thanks, but where is everybody ?” she asked.
“Cal and his wife went to his family dinner” he replied.
“Shit ! I should have come earlier” she muttered.
“By the way I am his wife’s best friend” Mia said to him.
“Wow it is a pleasure meeting you” Levi said.
“What is your name ?” Mia asked.
“Levi” he replied.
“Levi, can I ask you for a favour?” Mia asked
“What is it?”
“I need the phone number of thet guy that just left now ” she said.
“You mean Edward ?” he asked.
“Is that his name ?” Mia asked.
“Yes, don’t worry I will get you his number” he promised.
“OK thanks, I need to go” Mia said.
“Wait I am going out now let me get my car and I will give you a ride” Levi said.
“OK”
Levi drove his car out of the garage and Mia entered it and he drove out of the compound. “Tell the press to leave or we are not getting out of the car” Calvin was telling his father on the phone.
“What did the press do to you?, just come inside with your wife let’s celebrate this thanksgiving. Your mother is beco……” Calvin hung up the phone cutting him off.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
He and Mia were currently at their car in front of the Dennis’s family residence.
The thing with Calvin is that he hates anything press or public, he like his things secret and private.
“Are you tired of staying in the car ?” Calvin asked Dorothy.
“No” she replied even though she was.
“Don’t worry we will go in soon” he promised and Dorothy nodded.
Just then Calvin’s father called him on the phone “the press are all gone, now come inside” his father said immediately the call was connected and hang up.
Calvin dialed a number, when the person picked up Calvin asked “what is the press situation?”.
“Neutral” the person replied and the call was disconnected.
Calvin then got out of the car holding Dorothy’s hand, they walked through the red carpet and went inside the house. The house was filled with people and they were all affluent people.
“Let’s go meet my parents” Calvin said and started leading her where his parents were.
“Oh my sweet son” his mother said and hugged him.
“How are you ?” she asked.
“Fine” Calvin replied.
“Good afternoon Mr Dennis” Calvin greeted his Dad stretching his hand for a handshake which his father reciprocated.
“I want y’all to meet my wife Dorothy” he introduced.
“You are welcome Dorothy” he father said.
“Thank you sir, it is my pleasure to be at your home” Dorothy replied.
“Welcome home dear” his mother said and hugged her.
“Thank you ma” Dorothy replied.
“Please excuse me” Calvin’s father said and left, he went to the stage and took the microphone.
“Welcome Ladies and gentlemen to the annual traditional thanksgiving dinner of the Dennis family” he began.
“This tradition began in our family back in the days of our ancestors and still stands today. It is the day we all gather as a family to celebrate, enjoy and thank God for his mercies upon us. Well I did not come here to tell you about the thanksgiving that y’all know about but I am here to tell you that my only son is now a married man. Calvin’s father explained.
There were murmurs among the people as some did not believe it.
“As you all know that my son is accused of being gay but he is not because he is now married to a girl, please Dorothy come and speak to be people” Calvin’s father said.
Dorothy’s heart skipped a beat at the last statement he made.
“Go and make sure you sound cold and aloof” Calvin told her. She looked at him in fear but Calvin took her hand and kissed it.
“Be strong, you can do this” he said to her.
Dorothy became a little bold and courageous by Calvin’s reassurance and she majestically walked to the stage and collected the microphone from her father-in-law.
“Hi my name is Dorothy Benson, the wife of Calvin Dennis and I am here to te….”
“Shut up you gold digger” someone said from the people.
“Who said that ?” Dorothy asked.
“Me” a blonde-haired girl answered.
“Were you going to tell us how he fucks you day and night to prove his is straight, but guess what we don’t care whether he is straight or gay. We just know that you don’t deserve him” the girl said angrily.
“Well newsflash here is that I am the wife and you are just I don’t know a nobody” Dorothy said to her.
She tried to rush at Dorothy but she was held by her parents.
“How pathetic and childish that you can’t control your emotions in public” Dorothy said to her shaking her head.
“Well Ladies and gentlemen in conclusion my husband is straight thank you” she said and went back to where Calvin was.
“You did great” Calvin told her.
“Thanks” she replied.
“Now is time for the dinner meal” Calvin’s father announced and everybody started going towards the dinning room.
Calvin held Dorothy’s hand and they went into the dinning room, it was very big and beautifully decorated, there were tables for every family that is present.
