Unexpected Love Affair 15

°•°

Carla/ Mrs. Gerald

Be grateful Calix.

Carla/ Mrs. Gerald

My only son and child not being interested in the family business is one thing. Him being gay is just the height of it.

Carla/ Mrs. Gerald

You can't help the business none can you give us a hire.

Carla/ Mrs. Gerald

You should be happy we allowed you to do your thing while making you get marry to someone who will help us take care of the business after we die.

Carla/ Mrs. Gerald

What more do you want us to do for you to realised we care?

Carla/ Mrs. Gerald

Is staying away from us going to help all this?

Calix Gerald Wesley

Was I complaining at all?

Calix Gerald Wesley

You are always right mother? Always right.

Calix Gerald Wesley

What does this gay son of yours knows after all?

Calix picks up a glass of champagne from the waiter walking by as he downed it at once setting it aside before picking another.

Carla/ Mrs. Gerald

Go easy on that, we still have a long night to go.

Calix Gerald Wesley

...*down the glass again*

Carla/ Mrs. Gerald

Did you hear me?

Calix Gerald Wesley

Yes mother.

Calix Gerald Wesley

*picks up another glass*

Carla/ Mrs. Gerald

*sigh* You just never listen!

Calix wasn't listening to what his mother way saying anymore when his eyes met the person Nikolai was talking to.

Calix Gerald Wesley

What is she doing here?

Carla/ Mrs. Gerald

Maya? That's Nikolai new personal assistant?

Calix Gerald Wesley

What? Personal Assistant? You know who that is right? That's his ex-girlfriend!

Carla/ Mrs. Gerald

So what?

Carla/ Mrs. Gerald

Why are you being paranoid when everyone is aware that he is married to you?

Calix Gerald Wesley

But that still didn't change the fact that they were together until we got married.

Calix Gerald Wesley

And you are so okay with it.

Calix Gerald Wesley

(And he didn't tell me either.)

Carla/ Mrs. Gerald

Ofcourse I am okay with it because he told me about it and ask for my permission as he needed her by his side because of the project they plan on doing together.

Carla/ Mrs. Gerald

Isn't the celebration of that project the reason this dinner party was made.

Calix Gerald Wesley

... (So I followed my supposed husband to a party without knowing what it's all about.)

Carla/ Mrs. Gerald

Did he not tell you about it?

Calix looks towards Nikolai to see him placed his hand on Maya's shoulder as they talked with the guest in front of them. Both of them smiling at what the man was saying to them.

Calix Gerald Wesley

Excuse me, I need to use the restroom.

Calix places the glass in his hand down as he walks out of the hall towards the restroom.
