Controversial plotline
Mavis was quite mad at the way Blaine basically ordered them to have their baths and come to his office. “Like, why should I do stuff just because he says so? As far as I’m concerned, I can do whatever I want whenever I want! It’s not like I wasn’t gonna bathe anyway, I can’t stand not bathing. In fact, I’ll go to his office whenever I want” she said to herself after bathing and eating her breakfast.
Señora Maria had come with so many clothes and accessories, saying that Blaine bought them for her since she came to Colombia without being able to take any clothes.
” He also requests your presence at his office” she added when she saw that Mavis only intended on trying the clothes and nothing more.
” I will be there. Thanks,” she lied but ended up laying on her bed after and she fell asleep.
When she woke up some hours later, someone was knocking on her door.
” Sorry Blaine, I slept off, I was exhausted,” she said opening the door without checking who was standing outside.
” Not Blaine but can I come in?”
” Oh Victoria, um… sure, come in”
” Thanks,” Victoria said before she entered the room and sat on a free chair beside Mavis’s bed.
” So, what do you think of this plan?” Victoria asked making Mavis stare at her in confusion.
” What plan?”
” Didn’t you go to Blaine’s office?”
” No, I have been really dizzy”
” Ah…” She said before she looked away mischievously, patted her hair, and laughed.
” What? What happened?”Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
” I don’t know Mavis. I don’t think I should be the one breaking this unexpected news to you but, it seems our life just got more dramatic”
” How do you mean?”
* Apparently, we’re not just living in Blaine’s new apartment for nothing’s sake. His father has a plan and it’s the most outrageous thing I ever heard but it’s not like we have a choice in the matter – and that includes Blaine”
” Okay… but what’s this plan?”
” Blaine’s father is in a tight spot right now. Someone is unto him and the person is trying to expose him as a mafia Lord but since we are all now mixed up with him, if he’s found guilty all of us will go to jail as well. So…” Victoria paused and looked at Mavis before she continued, ” … he wants to use as a distraction”
” How so?”
” He intends to use Blaine’s relationship with us to make the public see us as nothing but a dramatic family. A family so controversial and full of drama that no one would think we’d have any connections to crime.”
” That’s ridiculous. Putting us in the spotlight is only going to do more harm than good”
“On the contrary, we are already in the spotlight. He is already known as a successful businessman but his family and personal life is kinda sketchy ”
” So what does this have to do with me?” Victoria smiled and chuckled as she said, ” he has created a very sweet drama”
” Just say it already!” Mavis said losing her patience.
” Alright, hold your horses. We are all going to be playing a role in this drama. Blaine is his wealthy son and heir, I am his ex-wife who is still in love with Blaine -”
” – you are?”
” No, it’s just my part. As I was saying, I am his ex-wife, Isabella is his current wife and you are his mistress who also is very much in love with him.”
“Let me get this straight, we are going to act in front of the public as three women who are perfectly fine with sleeping with the same man even though he had divorced you, married another woman, and got me pregnant? ” Mavis asked in astonishment.
” Yes. See? It’s so crazy because this is not something you see every day! And the best part is that you are going to be the secret”
” What the hell does that mean this time?”
” That you will be his secret mistress that both of us will try to find. It’ll be like we’re public figures sharing the tea is our partner’s infidelity to the public – it’s just going to be a lot and I love it because I am an actress. After doing this for three months, I’m gonna have so many controversies surrounding me that my name will always be on the lips of people. Don’t you think this plan is terrific?” She asked but Mavis was not pleased with all.
“Did Blaine make this plan up? Did he agree to this because he gets to sit in the center of this controversy and act like the boss? I’m not even surprised. He’s so full of himself, of course, he would do that!” Mavis exploded surprising Victoria who thought she might like the idea.
” Wow. You sound so mad about it.”
“Why wouldn’t I be? So I’m going to be revealed to the public as his mistress eventually won’t I? ”
” Yes… but that might take a while”
” Wait, how public are we talking about here, is this gonna be like some kind of reality TV show?” Mavis asked looking petrified by the thought.
” No, I don’t think so. We’ll just feed the public with some info. Don’t worry, his father will be here soon to walk us through it all.”
” Why the hell are you excited about this?”
“Just cause. I mean, I love drama. This is perfect ”
“Why was I even surprised? ” She muttered before she sat back on her bed. Victoria had made up lies about Blaine for clout before, of course, she would love this.
” is there no other way”
” Well, I guess if you’re able to think of a better idea than this before… Tomorrow when Blaine’s father arrives then there would be another way. Until then, it’s either we play the part or we end up in jail for something we don’t know. Mind you, we have no way to prove our innocence ”
” God” Mavis sighed and ran her hands through her hair. The thing that now hurt her the most was that if the whole thing goes according to plan, she will officially be labeled a mistress for life and her mother would have the last laugh.
