Mommy, Is The President Our Daddy? The Ex-Wife’s Revenge

The man stood there smiling and this irritated me. What did he want?

“Can I speak in private with you, Mr president?” He asked as I frowned even harder. I watched the man cast a disdainful look at everyone in the room, from my lawyers to my PR team down to my manager.

I hated the guts of this man. Sometimes I wondered why I even had to marry from his family but it was all in the past now. I had to focus on the future and the future needed help.

He seemed like someone who knew something and I wanted to know what that was. I would listen to what he had to say and maybe work with him. I hoped it would produce good results because nothing was working.

“Everyone out,” I ordered as everyone left until it was just the two of us left alone.

“How are you doing?” he asked, pissing me off even more.

“Is that a trick question? How am I doing? Are you blind?” I could not hold back my anger. How dare he ask me such stupid question. “How do you think I’m doing? Oh I’m doing great. I’m sure I don’t have anything left to ruin my already ruined day. That is how I’m doing.

“I am fucking angry at what is going on so if you have no solution for me, then kindly leave. With the news out there in the country I am not doing great. There, I said it. Are you happy now?”

I could tell he was stalling and wasting time. Something was up and the man was not saying anything which was even pissing me off more.

“Spit it out quickly before you get escorted by security, and it wouldn’t be in the nicest of ways.”

The man inhaled as he decided to say what his problem was.

“The bill for my company has been released and I need help funding it…”

“You stupid old man,” I sighed. “What joke is this?”

“It’s not a joke. And can you refrain from being offended every time the bill comes up?”

“Now was the right time to bring it?” I asked with a straight face. “I’ve got major issues. Major life changing issues and your stupid company is more important? I’ve already told your daughter what my reply is. She should have told you what it was.”

I plopped into my seat in anger. I could not believe everything was a disaster. There had to be something I could do to clear my name. This man was wasting my time but I would ignore him no matter what he said while thinking of a solution for my dilemma.

“From the looks of things,” the man said. “It is clear by the news of the scandalous secrets being released that you will not have much influence to be elected once more. You should do better to do the right thing and secure your future.

“My company is a better and major place to start from. You could do a lot by investing in it.”

I shot to my feet as the man shuddered away with his eyes falling to the ground.

“Don’t push your luck,” I growled. “Get out.”

The man looked up at me with hatred. “You will regret this.”

He said this and stormed out of the hall.

Zendaya’s POV

After the fight with Travis I had hoped myself up in my room. My heart could not hold back the pain I was feeling and I leaned into my bed further. I covered my body with the bed covers as I wanted to be left alone.

Everything was a disaster. I could not call Asher and apologize because this had been my fault. This was all my fault. I had done this. If I had not gotten the files on him he would be safe by now.

I was such a terrible person. I was going to stay in my hole until I died.

A knock came on the door as I looked up.

“Go away!” I yelled as the maid answered.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

“Dinner is served!” the maid outside the door yelled back.

I looked out the window to see that it was evening already. How long had I stayed in bed?

I got out and left the room but not without looking at my phone first. I had to see if I was still dreaming before I left the room.

When I found out it was reality I walked out of the room. While walking through the hall I couldn’t help but feel like Asher was going through a lot. He would be under fire by major politicians. I had caused his pain. I did not deserve to be by his side.

I got to the dining hall to see that I was the only one going to be eating.

“What is going on?” I asked, falling into my seat. “Where is everybody? Where are the kids?”

“Sir Travis took them to the amusement park,” the maid answered as I nodded.

I slowly had my dinner while thinking of Asher. This was not a great time to even call him. What was I going to say?

‘Sorry I ruined your life.’ That was not a great way to start. Even though it had been my fault, I did not know how to approach him. I was not going to tell him everything about my past. That could make him not trust me again.

The plan I had gotten for him was to run him into the ground, he was doomed after this. There was no way he would survive after this unless by some kind of divine intervention. What that intervention was going to be I had no idea about but I did know that something would need to be done.

I started to wish I could help him when my phone rang out.

I got to my feet entering the room to pick it only to see that it was Asher.
