Olivia
I couldn’t believe my luck as I drove to meet my PI at the same dive bar as yesterday. I need to give this man a huge bonus because he really struck gold, I couldn’t wait to see what more he has for me. I parked my car at the same spot I just got it from this morning, ‘Note to self: Don’t drink as much tonight.’ When I walked into the bar, Chris was sitting waiting for me with a glass in his hand and clearly my glass was already next to him. “Chris nice to see you.” “You to. I ordered you a drink so long.” “Thanks.” I took the glass and downed the Johnny Walker that was inside. “Shall we get a table.” “Yes, I’ve got more to tell you.” “Oh, believe me I can’t wait.” Chris got us another drink before he said “Imagine the headlines “Pregnant oil heiress running from home. Or “Arrange marriage in this day and age is Houstin living in the dark ages?” “All sounds great but give me more info.” “Well, what I could gather the child she’s carrying is also not Benjamin Devon’s.” “The little slut, I knew she wasn’t good enough for Jaden I also knew he wasn’t the father.” “Well, the gossip is that Joelle got pregnant by her Uni boyfriend, this Benjamin guy was willing to take her and marry her raising the kid as his own but his mother forbade it.” “Forbade? What the fuck? How old are these people?” “It’s just the rich being the rich that’s all. Well then Joelle disappeared no one knew where she went except Benjamin, but he wasn’t telling anyone, her parents had to hire their own private detective to find her.” “Why didn’t they take her home when they did find her?” “Oh, you know about that?” “Yes, my lawyer told me.” “Well see mommy and daddy dearest is not happy about the pregnancy she was actually kicked out of the house for putting them in this position, tarnishing their name and all. The Wayne Company always did better than the Devon’s and since Benjamin took over, he did everything in his power to undermine the Wayne’s. Story is the FBI is looking into the Wayne’s finances and that tip came directly from Benjamin Devon.” “Oh my God.” I said putting my hand in front of my mouth because this was just too good. “See the only reason daddy came looking for her is to blame her and probable try and convinced her to tell Benjamin to back off.” “You think she still got a hold on this Devon guy?” “Rumor has it his engaged, so I don’t know.” “Interesting, I have so many ways to get to her now.” “What do you mean now?” Chris asked. I took out the letter out of my bag and gave it to him. While he was reading, I took a few sips of my Jack Daniels.
“Oh this, you do know you can get to them through social media, right?” “Yes, I do but I want to have it on all platforms and what is better than seeing your face on the cover of a tabloid with a huge by line.” “You do have a point she won’t be able to show her face near any store when that is being published.” “Exactly, so what can we use?” “Basically, everything you just can’t bring in Jaden’s family.” The letter mentioned her as well.” “Well, you are going to tackle this through her parents, ‘Housten Royalty still living in the dark ages. Pregnancy, arrange marriages, problems with the law. Is the Waynes and Devons from Housten any different from the rest of us? I can think of a few tabloids that will jump at this opportunity.” “Well give me everything you’ve got and call those tabloids I want this story out as soon as possible I need to make my move on Jaden before he writes me off completely.”
He pushed all the evidence he gathered to me on the table “I’ll call the tabloids I know and give them your number.” “Great let’s get this thing started.” Before I could take the papers from the table he put his hand on them, “What now?” “Are you sure about this?” “You just told me what a great story it would be.” “I did but I don’t want someone back and you are going to hurt someone he cares for; you might not get him back you might push him further away.” “Nonsense when Jaden finds out what kind of person she really is he will forgive me in an instant.” “And who says he doesn’t already know?” “What a bazar question?” “No, it’s not, who says she didn’t tell him everything because she was pregnant when she got here.” “If I had a secret like that, I wouldn’t tell a soul I will trap my man first.” Chris got quiet and he just looked at me like he couldn’t believe what I just said. “What?” “Nothing just remember everyone is not like you.” “Well, I bet you that little slut did not tell Jaden a thing and this will be his wake-up call and bring him back to me.” “I hope you are right.” “Off course I am.” “Just remember the Coopers are trying to protect her.” “Because they think she’s pregnant with Jaden’s baby that is the only reason why.” I got so angry with Chris why would he say such things. No women in her right mind and that wants to catch a rich guy with status will tell him what happened in her life I’ll bet my life on that. “I’m leaving send me those numbers.” “Already did.” “You’ll have your money by the end of tomorrow with a bit extra because this was brilliant work.” “Thanks Olivia.” I took my stuff and walked out of the bar. When I got in my car I wondered for a second if Chris could be right and then I dismissed it again.
